Will I get this job?

Hi,
I think it might look good - Asc is Cancer, Moon in 4th trines the Sun, but it also squares Mercury, and possibly (not sure about orbs?) Mars which is the ruler of the 10th. But Venus is in the 10th and sextiles Mars which is also conjunct Jupiter, and Jupiter is the ruler of the 6th house.
As you've probably realised I've never done this before but I'm on tenterhooks waiting to see if I'm in with a chance so thought I'd have a go at horary! I think I've understood the basics but would be grateful for any advice, especially if I've gone horribly wrong!
cheers,

Lodals,

I'm gonna practice a little, if that's ok with you. It'll "kick-start" your thread, too.

My first thought.... Is this a job in the health care field- even home health care? possibly working with invalids/bedfast/ sitting with the elderly? The reason why I ask is that your sig, the Moon, is at 29'42"Libra in an intercepted 4th. It's in an applying exact conjunct with the ruler of both the 12th and the 4th - Mercury at 29'56" Cap in the 7th.

Or conversely, do you feel you have to work to support someone else in your home? or someone in your home is insisting you work? or that you need to bring in income, too? The reason I ask is that Mercury would rule a partner's turned 6th.

Jupiter rules both your 6th and your 10th, and is at 9*Aquarius in the 8th. Hmm, this seems like a job handling other people's money/public funds in some way. Moon will have to change signs ( right after the square to Mercury) before she will make any contact with Jupiter - which will be a square from the 5th. Mercury ( if it ties in anywhere) will catch up with Jupiter later on, as well - right after IT changes signs.

If the job does require that you handle money/finances in some way..... do they require a background/credit check or something? That could possibly be Mercury in Cap in the 7th (person doing the hiring?) checking up on what you might be hiding ( 12th) and your personal security and finances
(4th)? Whatever it is, it seems the imminent Moon/Mercury square is a "hurdle" that needs to be jumped - or possibly an imminent "yes", as it does make contact very quickly. I don't know enough about "yes/no" and timing in horary to venture a guess. I'm just fairly decent at picking up background information.

Also, you might want to re-cast it with the Part of Fortune. You wouldn't have to repost the chart. Just edit your post to give us the sign/degree/house.

Hope that was of some small help,

Wow Freedomlover! You've done it again! You're either brilliant or psychic or both!
The job I've applied for is a casino cashier (handling other peoples' money), which is what I've been doing off and on for years. Yes, I am being 'coerced' into going back to work by my husband and yes, there will be a background/credit check that may not go my way as I refused to pay bank charges on an unauthorised overdraft, so that could be a problem.
POF is in house 9, 17* Pisces.
You are an absolute star!
cheers,
Lodals

Well, I wouldn't go that far - but thanks for the encouragement!

Yeah, after I got to looking at the Jupiter, I realized that the 12th/4th probably didn't have anything to do with caring for an invalid... but, hey, that was the first thing in the chart that I had noticed for some reason... and I'd already typed it.... But, yeah, plan B seemed to work a lot better, eh?

However, am I losing my mind? I could have sworn that I saw you had posted the POF in the 10th when I first read this? I was going to say that sounds like a good sign. The 10th is intercepted, though. I forgot to write that, as well.

So, the ruler of the intercepted 10th, Mars, is in Aquarius/8th - again, describing your job? BUT it has Pisces and Taurus on either side of it. I see this is another indicator of the credit/background check. (Pisces - what you might be hiding from them and Taurus - finances)

I really wish someone with more horary experience would jump in. I have no idea if this is a "go" or not. It just seems to be saying the credit check is the step you're on now. However, when the Moon changes signs and squares Jupiter, it will be in the 5th. 5th house rules gambling and risk. I'm not sure if the square is a good sign or not.

Back to the POF in Pisces/9th? I don't know, do you have a mentor that might put a good word in for you, and help override the negatives in your credit report? Maybe a previous employer who will give you a good reference? Maybe it says you will have favor with the credit report?

I think it's so odd what kind of job you are applying for, and have done. It's kind of unusual -working in a casino. I almost got a job as a banker on a casino boat several years ago. I think it would have been so much fun! I didn't get it, though. I was dating the general manager for the boat - and an old boyfriend wound up causing trouble... but I digress. Is this on a boat? or a casino on the land?

Hi,
You're not going mad! I did post the Virgo POF but I'd forgotten I was on someone else's chart!
The credit check is worrying me too, I really shouldn't have got on my high horse about that unauthorised overdraft, but it just seemed so wrong that they can do that! Anyway... all my previous employers will vouch for me - I am a good worker and honest and I get on with most people, I just take a flyer out the door every now and then!
As to the job - I got into it many years ago after leaving my first husband and having two young children to support - I didn't even know what a croupier was but they were paying so much more than anyone else that I really didn't care, I just went for it! I also had a chance back then, to go on a boat, the QE2, but my Mom wouldn't have the kids for me (can't say I blame her!) so I never did. As to your question, this isn't on a boat, but you're close - it's in Gibraltar!
You are good - very, very good!
I asked another question about the credit check and I don't think it looks too good - would you like to have a look?
cheers,
Loraine

You can certainly post another chart, if you like. I can't guarantee that I'll get anything off of it. Some charts "speak" to me -other's don't. But hopefully some others will jump in here soon. Another chart might not be necessary, I don't know. It might still be possible to gauge it from this one.

Lodals,
To improve your attempts in the future, here's a couple of notes. Keep it simple -- start focusing by what is the quesited (what we want or are inquiring about), and the querent (you); and how they relate to each other before including any other planets and aspects, so you don't get confused and wonder what actually means something. Are either Mars or Venus the sixth and tenth house rulers in any of the moon's essential dignities? These are positive testimonies. The Moon-Sun trine was hardly relevant to the rest of the chart.

Here's a great sticky by archergirl to refer to:

Thanks for the advice Ray Austin. Checked out as you suggested and realised another mistake - it's Jupiter, in the 8th, not Mars, who rules both 6th and 10th, as Freedomlover pointed out, and Venus, in the 10th makes a sextile.
Anyway, am I right in thinking that as the 8th relates to Scorpio, Moons Fall, and the 10th to Capricorn, Moons Detriment, that this is not a good sign?
Also Venus in the 10th squares Pluto in the 6th so I guess that's not a good omen either? Or is that another unecessary observation? And is the horoscope not fit to be judged anyway because of the late degree of the Moon, or is that one of Lilleys' strictures that's no longer in use? Sorry if that's too many questions - can't seem to stop once I get started!
cheers,
Lodals

Lodals,
I'm actually happy you brought this up, since not many people mention nor consider this while I find it rather interesting:

If I am understanding you correctly, you're talking about the natural house sign rulers. In horary, the actual signs marking the cusp are widely only used.

Now if Scorpio actually marked the tenth cusp, or Capricorn in the sixth: if you do see a sign of fall or detriment on the cusp of the quesited house, this definitely suggests difficulties in whatever you're inquiring about.

Venus is actually separating from Pluto which means it could have represented some event in the past, but I don't think it's very relevant to the chart.

The moon is at a "crisis" or "anaretic" degree, not really an unjudgable degree. It can mean that the situation is coming to an end quickly, and then it's very important to see what sign she's going into next. If in a sign of peregrination (complete weakness), or the other debilities (detriment, fall), then we could expect things to take a turn for the negative.

As for the outcome of the chart, I don't see a yes. The moon (as you) is slipping into a sign of her fall, and squares the end of matter, Merc, who has no positive reception with the moon to ease it. Jupiter also has no ties to the moon and is in your house of loss, which confirms a no. Merc is in the seventh, the house of others/competitors, so probably someone else got the job -- or Merc, as your application/resumé/interview they did not like it. Merc also naturally rules jobs, which makes me think a no.

Ray

Thanks very much for your time and thoughts Ray. It's back to the drawing board for me then in both the job market and Horary! You've made the delineation technique much clearer for me and I really appreciate it.
cheers,
Lodals

Have you heard anything back from the job application yet, Lodals?

Not a thing!!! Thanks for asking though.

Very good Freedom! And those Elderly people sure do spend a lot of time at casinos..so that is the old people you saw!

I would say a 'no' too
Mercury acts as a impediment.
The square indicates frustration.
There is does not appeat to be any reception between planets.
The moon is in the 'burning way' decreasing its strength.
The good news is the job itself is not looking very good in the 8th and peregrine. You may not want the job.Jupiter is in Saturns house and Saturn is retrograde and in the jobs sixth ...menial , low paying or servant work...
