My question is mainly for the professional astrologers:
Is anyone aware of the concept of a western standard calendar year being ruled by a specific planet?
I have read several astrology books without finding anything on this, nor does anything appear to be on the web about it.
However, when I was young I heard my late mother refer to a year as a "Mars" year, or another as a "Jupiter" year. I should add that my mother was German, while my reading has been in English language sources. Maybe this is a system not usually referred to in English/US astrology.
