Thanks for your reply. That makes a lot of sense. The landlords I have to deal with are all a bit shady here in southern California. I can't seem to catch a break in LA (where I live now), especially with the apartments I have lived in. I've attached some relocated charts for different cities including LA (Hollywood) and a few other places.
Ignoring the Astrocartography lines and looking only at relocated charts...
Honolulu puts Venus and Jupiter in my 4th house, which I suspect is a good placement, and Chiron and Ceres in my 10th (I'm in the health care field so this might be a good placement for Chiron. Or not.).
Miami (Cococnut Grove) places Pluto, Mercury, Venus and Uranus in my 1st house (yikes!) and leaves my 4th and 10th with no planets.
Santa Fe puts a cluster of planets, including Moon and Saturn in my 9th house. And again leaves 4th and 10th sans planets.
So, with these choices which is the best city for me? And in which houses would my natal planets, considering their negative and positive aspects, have their best placement?
Thanks for your time!
Honolulu is looking pretty good to me.
Venus and Jupiter in the 4th house. This is a great placement for a location where you would likely feel at home and surrounded by what you perceive to be beautiful. It's possible that you would have an expansive environment, like a large home and feel inspired by your surroundings. You should definitely really like your neighbourhood. It's said that the condition of the 4th is of prime importance when considering a relocation, and here, the ruler of the 4th (Venus) in in the 4th and in her own sign, this is a very strong placement for the home and your surroundings. Your progressed Sun is currently conjoining your natal Venus and so the affairs of the house would be significantly boosted at this time. This could be a good time for a visit.
Ruler of the 2nd, the Sun, in the 2nd. Another strong placement. Good for making money on your own initiative and through entrepenurial activities. Ruler of the 10th, Mars, in the 2nd. This should be a good location to earn money from your career choice, you may be perceived as quite active and perhaps more extroverted. You may have more of a drive towards self-promotion and this should help generate positive cash flow. Also, the progressed ascendant here is coming up to conjoin your natal Sun, ruler of the 2nd. This would definately activate the money house and should be auspicious.
The ruler of your ascendant, Cancer, is Moon in Taurus in the 11th. Taurus is a good place for the Moon, so it has strength in it's sign. It's arguably only aspect is a quincunx to Venus. Though since it's the Moon and Venus, the quincunx shouldn't be that difficult natally. Perhaps being part of local organisations or groups in this place will be quite important to you. Your Moon is about to be specifically blessed with progressed Jupiter coming up to form a very long sextile in a few years. This will last many, many years and would be especially beneficial here since the Moon is the ruler of the ascendant. And then as a bonus, a few years later progressed Jupiter will trine the Ascendant for many more years. So the longterm prospects are looking very good. Progressed Jupiter aspects are one of the most auspicious things in astrology since they can last decades.
With Saturn in the 11th square Mars ruler of the 10th and in the 2nd, perhaps these groups relate to your career. Also with Saturn being the ruler of the 7th, you might meet a significant longterm other in these groups. Saturn is not in a bad shape as it's being sextiled by progressed Mars and is about to be trined by progressed Moon. This could stimulate the activity of the 7th house.
