sorry if I'm being impatient,but if anyone can figure out what's happening,please respond - I'm sensing college cause of the placement of Jupiter,and the square between me and it is scaring me a little!
hey summer92, hope you don't mind if I take a shot at one of your lost item questions.
Regiomontanus houses.
1. you - Venus.
2. your friend - Sun (lost item).
3. video camera - Venus (Libra rules 1st house, as 2nd from 11th).
(as an aside, how did you come to Jupiter as significator for the lost item?)
the camera's still solidly in your possession. you are both represented by the same ruler, Venus, and the Moon is 30º from the Ascendant -- the item is near to you. this is a night chart so Venus is in sect, in a good house and in her exaltation of Pisces. all this is to say that the camera's safe and in good condition.
Venus's last aspect was an opposition of the Moon. according to Lilly that indicates loss due to frequent and common use, by means of a messenger (anyone can act in the capacity of a messenger in a particular moment), widow or mature woman.
arguments for recovery:
- application of Moon to Fortuna.
- application of Venus to Jupiter and Ascendant to Jupiter (technically a planet should be moving towards a point, not the reverse). Jupiter could be collecting the light here, but this might be shaky.
arguments against recovery:
- Moon void, separates from Venus, separates from own dispositor, cadent.
- Moon/Sun not aspecting Ascendant (doubly important, as first house is your house cusp but also the house of the lost item -- again, 2nd from 11th), each other or L1.
- significator of lost item (Venus) applying to square of Jupiter (lord of turned 8th). this may or may not be offset by the fact that both are benefics.
more arguments against recovery than for, but something about it being so near to you makes me wonder.. if it is to be found:
- it's likely north by northwest from your position. (fifth house, Pisces).
- at sign boundaries (note Venus at 00º Pisces) suggests that the item could be behind something, near the edge of something or between the boundaries of two rooms.
- significator in a mutable sign: near water, a room within a room, in the home. antechambers, gardens.
- significator in Pisces: kitchen, bathroom, wet/damp areas and places.
- significator being Venus: in or near clothing, wardrobes, places you go to enjoy yourself (also reinforced by 5th house placement), beds, around things belonging to women.
- significator in sign of exaltation: likely to be high up, off the ground, potentially out of view but not necessarily.
- if Jupiter is indeed collecting the light from Venus (item) and bringing it to the Ascendant (you), could signify a roommate/colleague/servant/maid/animal bringing it to you. (not saying a dog will pick it up and bring it to you, but maybe an animal is the reason you come to find it.)
if you find it, please take the time of recovery. exact timing is so helpful, and would help in hindsighting and in learning just as it would have in the chart regarding your ID card.
