Hello ScorpAsc5,
This is a night chart, so the sect light in favour is the Moon. It is in the first sign, so it is operative: we can use the Moon for the next procedure. Before that, one thing to note is the Moon is in the last degree of a sign. Assuming that the birth time is accurate, according to Dorotheus, this placement is unfortunate. Anyway, the trigon lords of the Moon are Mercury, Saturn and Jupiter respectively.
The first thing I notice is that Mercury is cadent (3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th houses are cadent). Mercury is of the night sect (which is good for your brother), but it is not dignified and it is in an unfortunate 6th sign. This Mercury is below average in terms of favourability. So indeed, the first part of life will be unfortunate.
The next trigon lord is Saturn. Saturn is contrary to the sect in favour (bad for your brother), but it is in its own house (Aquarius) and is in the fortunate first sign. However, it is opposite Mars, which is contrary to it, and it is retrograde.This Saturn is about below average in terms of favourability.
The last trigon lord (which is less important in my opinion) is Jupiter, and it is contrary to the sect (not as good), but in its own trigon (which is better than nothing) and in an ambivalent 7th sign (neither positive nor negative). At the same time, it is also in opposition to the retrograde Saturn and is in the same sign as Mars. Similarly, this Jupiter is below average in terms of favourability.
With the above testimonies, I can see that life was and will be difficult for your brother. Nonetheless, because Mercury is cadent while Saturn and Jupiter are angular, there is at least some possibility of improvement in terms of increasing one's activities in life. The first part of life (Mercury) will be inactive and unfortunate, but the second part (Saturn) will become better, but still rather inactive due to Saturn's retrograde status. Activity will be obtained through constant hard work and toil.
Saturn's retrograde status makes the person experience delays and slowness, and because he is the domicile lord of the Ascendant, it also affects the character in the same manner: making the person slow, deliberate, over-thinking things, timid and fearful. The positive effects of Saturn are: careful, hard working, good at following instructions and understanding structures.
The Lot of Fortune is in Cancer, and its lord is in the 8th sign from Fortune (8th from Cancer is Aquarius) and is with Saturn retrograde. The 8th sign signifies idleness, while Fortune is an alternate Ascendant. Thus, this shows the situation of the native: an idle person, not participating in any activities.
I apologise if all this sounds negative. I can certainly see the predicament that your sibling is in. I cannot do the timing because the birth details are missing, so if you don't mind, you can PM me the birth details and we can go through this privately.
Sincerely,
Larxene Xenohart
