Delineating Marriage (Medieval Method) https://www.astrologyweekly.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49297
This is very intriguing subject isn't it?
Well, I must mention in the very beginning in explaining the methods here that they are of medieval astrology type (Bonatti, Abu Ali, Al Khayat and etc.).
To say that the method is 'Traiditional' is really using very wide range of time span in which different techniques for delineating marriage were used.
For example, the Hellenistic Astrologer's (Valens, Dorotheus and etc.) have used methods on their own, methods which I'll probably (not even later) not explain on this thread, but we can open another thread for that matter.
As this section of Traditional Astrology is quite new and in its beginnings, we now trow out the techniques here and there and title them as "Traditional". I hope that in the future we can make sub sections of traditional astrology, such as: "Medieval Astrology", "Hellenistic Astrology", Renaissance Astrology" and etc..
There are certain rules in Medieval Astrology compiled which can give quite good and workable methods for delineating marriage. The rules one can learn for a short period of time, but the practice is what is needed in order these rules to become second nature of the astrologer's intuitive tool in delineating such things as Marriage in the chart. This is what I would like to do on this thread: to practice as much charts as I/we will have the time to do it.
The Technique
The Compound Almuten is what is very practical thing in almost all methods used in medieval delineation. It seems that Bonatti and other medievals were very fond on Compound Almutens.
I will first give delineation for male charts, and in some later post will explain the delineation for female charts.
Finding the Compound Almuten for Marriage:
Find the Rulers of all 5 dignities for these places:
1. 7th house cusp
2. Lord of the 7th house
3. Planets in 7th house (if any)
4. Moon
5. Venus
6. Part of Marriage (According to Hermes) (ASC + VE - SA) for Men.
The Planet which gets most points over these places is Almuten of Marriage.
But consider also if there are impediments to these places.
If there is affliction to 7th house (by some Malefic's square or opposition), to the Moon (aspect, combust, cadent, retrograde and etc.)
See if one of the individiaul Almutens over these places is joined to the Lord of the Ascendant or its Almuten or the Lord of the 7th or its Almuten.
If they are in trine or sextile, and if especially in reception, then the native will rejoice in living beautiful life with his wife according to his desire.
But if the aspects were without reception, or if the aspects were square or opposition, then the significations will be judged lower.
Bonatti:
Quote:
But if the lord of the Ascendant were joined to the lord of the 7''', so that the former were lighter than the latter, it signifies that the native will want to copulate with women. If indeed the 7'h sign were Cancer or Scorpio or
Pisces or there were a conjunction of the lord of the 7
th or its Almuten with the lord of the first or its Almuten in these (signs) or from these (signs) or with one of them, it signifies that the native will have many wives or a great number of other women. If however you find the contrary, you are able to judge otherwise."
Example:
This is the chart of Akihito, Emperor of Japan
His chart is given on astrodatabank site as a chart of a man with successful marriage.
First we make Compound Almuten for these places:
1. 7th House Cusp at 28 Gemini:
Mercury 5, 3,
Saturn 3, 2
Jupiter 3
Sun 1
2. Ruler of 7th, Mercury in 16 Sag
Jupiter 5, 3
Sun 3
Saturn 3
Venus 2
Moon 1
3. Planets in 7th - there are no planets here
4. Moon 20 Pisces
Jupiter 5
Venus 4, 3
Mars, 3, 2, 1
Moon 3
5. Venus 15 Aquarius
Saturn 5, 3
Mercury, 3, 1
Jupiter 3, 2
6 Part of Marriage at 29 Sag
Jupiter 5, 3
Sun 3
Saturn 3, 1
Mars 2
Total:
Mercury 12
Saturn 20
Jupiter 29
No need to calculate further, Jupiter is Almuten of Marriage.
Look how strong is that Jupiter up there on MC.
He is receiving the Sun by sextile and the Part of Marriage on the Ascendant.
7th house cusp not impeded.
Its lord - Mercury, cadent (but in the first sign), not afflicted by Malefic's square or opposition, not by combustion.
Moon - not afflicted.
Venus - Saturn receives here in Aquarius.
Part of Marriage not afflicted, but indeed highlightened by ASC and Sun.
Lord (and also Almuten) of the 1st, and the Lord (and also Almuten) of the 7th are in Sextile. Jupiter receives Mercury.
Quite fortunate chart for marriage.

Somna7H, I would suggest, given your past requests to get a professional reading.

I visited more than 10 Astrologers more than 10 years ago when I had excess money but no job. Then I gave on these frauds so called Astrologers here in our country. Now I have job but no money for Astrologer except free reading or reading by myself. So even if I found an honest Pro Astrologer I can do nothing about it. Thank you!

North node in cancer and 7th house ruler (Pluto) makes a conjunction to Saturn and in the sixth house. 7th house planet Neptune makes opposition with Venus. Mercury (ruler of 5th house, house of romance) squares Saturn.
Are major indicators of a later marriage or "late bloomer" in love.
Uranus conjunct descendent indicates that you will either marry multiple times or wait a while until the right one does come in (which seems more your situation). Uranus there will not have you settling long term or at all with just anyone so it can definitely prevent relationships or romance earlier in life.
I'd say late 30s, early 40s for marriage. A reading of progressions, solar return, etc would give a more specific timeframe.
