Surgical elections seem complicated to me.
You have the general climate, your natal, the surgeon, the affected body parts and systems to consider just in the chart!
Knees are ruled by Capricorn and lower veins (clotting risk) by Aqua?
I like the Virgo PoF.
Good luck!
Thanks so much passiflora for your suggestion
re: clotting. Seems the surgeon mentioned it too and takes that into consideration via aspirin therapy each day after the surgery for at least a week. Plus they make you wear the anti-embolism socks for quite awhile.
I am btw, a Capricorn stellium (Sun-Mer-Mars all in the 6th house where Pluto has been transiting forever!)....But 2 yrs ago when I had the right knee done 11/2017, it was like night & day with walking again, so I'm praying this one will be a success too. My Mars is exalted in Capricorn even though in the 6th house and often pressured in the chronic health area of life so quite often with health issues, I tend to get over them quickly enough except for skin (psoriasis for 40 years) and spinal issues (crooked spine) from birth.
Here is a Medical astrology link where I found my Sun & Mars degree right on!

Ironically, when a brother in law (Aries Sun) had a stroke after already being hit in the head during a robbery,then a car accident one New Year's Eve; these proved correct too:

Again, thanks to all who commented. You can never be too sure when looking at these things. I have at least 10 more years (as I told the surgeon), to walk and get around before I'm gone, so hopefully this left knee will turn out reasonably good too. But he did warn, "no two operations on knees are exactly the same)
which kind of worried me a bit.
