Kaiousei No Senshi, is your nativity a night or a day chart? Also sign and house location of your natal moon is important in this particular contextThe sanest religious argument against that I've heard is that astrologers can tell you some things about the future, but we can't tell you all things. I tend to agree with that; astrology is perfect and one of the closest forms of communication we have to God, but astrologers are the weak link in the chain. I think where I part ways is that even though we may never be able to read the sky perfectly, we need to keep working at it, not simply throw it away as a failed attempt. It's far too important.
Odd. I looked up ibn Ezra again, and a dignified Saturn in (especially) or ruling 9 should give true dreams. I have true nightmares, but 9 in my chart is ruled by the Sun in 5. Saturn's in decent shape in 1 (term, face, triplicity), but retrograde.
Still, I don't want to get too off-track with this thread. Just seeing both of you here, I had to ask. And now I shall be puzzled for a bit, but that's ok.
“.... Jupiter appearing in the 9th house and in a durnal nativity signifies that the native will be a cultivator of God and trusting God and contemplative so that on account of the decorative glory which he will have in his law, he will be honored by kings and powerful men...” Abu Bakr On Nativities II.1.9:On The Native's Religion
