Hi there - Sorry to take so long to get back to you! I’m looking at this question with a focus on the business. OK?
The horary chart here describes your situation and offers a few insights, I believe, as to what can be improved to help you advance your business. Jupiter’s and Mercury’s condition are not helping you and could possibly be the place to start looking for reasons you’re being held back. Jupiter is 10 ruler of the business and is literally being held back - he’s Retrograde but will go direct on 26 December. Mercury is co-ruler of the 7th - and so rules your customers (7 ruler = other people.) Mercury is going to start going backwards too - on 25 Nov. Moon also opposes Mercury.
Describing your situation is Mars, 2 ruler of your wealth in the 7th House of ‘other people’ - you need customers. Too true! Fortuna is also there (that’s the Part of Fortune - another wealth indicator). We’d like to see Venus aspect Mars to see others’ money coming to your pocket.
Mercury’s slowing down and going backwards indicates (I believe) that the necessary ‘communication’ or sales pitch is not getting to your customers’ pockets and helping them to spend with your business. Mercury doesn’t quite get to conjunct Venus.
What can you do? Wait until Mercury goes direct mid December BUT in the meantime work out some strategies for improving sales via technology or in other communicative (Mercurial) ways. I wouldn’t presume to tell you how to do that since I’m not a good sales person at all! but I would imagine someone who knows something about advertising or product promotion would.
8 ruler Venus symbolises your customers’ money. She is also in the 10th and is extremely strong in this chart, despite being in Mercury’s detriment (or let down by Mercury/lack of communication). This is good because it means that your customers do have money - you’ve just got to get them to spend it in your business and hence bring it to your pocket (Mars). Venus (their money) is not aspecting Mars (your money) in this chart and there’s no reception between them either to suggest any kind of inclination.
Your business is 10 ruler Jupiter, in mutual reception with Venus at the moment - something which should be helpful - - altho this is not doing you much good because the normal, wealth-helping Jupiter is not only Retrograde (going backwards) but is peregrine (‘lost and wandering.’) He goes direct again 26 December so this could symbolically suggest he should help put your business on the front foot again about that time. Could you do something in the way of creative marketing connected with xmas, maybe? Be reassured that despite Jupiter being in such a bad way at the moment, he is very well received by 8 ruler - your customers’ money.
As I said, Mercury (ruling the customers) goes Rx on 25 Nov, causing some problems with communication and short journeys but this tricky little planet will be moving full steam ahead again as from 15 December - a fact that will also help if you get some good communication/ideas/technology use happening to promote your business to these Mercury-ruled customers, I believe.
The Moon is the ‘mover and shaker’ in the matter and she is in the 4th House which rules your home and also the end of the matter. She is opposing Mercury and Venus in the 10th - am I being too brutal if I suggest your ‘thinking’ is opposing the business in some way? A positive attitude turnaround could work wonders and because it’s in the 4th - well, the end of the matter or the outcome depends on your thinking doesn’t it. OR ... it might be you live too far away from the business perhaps which holds things back somehow? Only you willl know.
If what I’ve just said about the Moon doesn’t sound right ... then think about your employees (if you have them of course!) because 6 ruler Moon rules them. Is there a problem there perhaps? Also, Moon’s antiscion is in the 5th House of creativity and children - can either or both of these 2 things be incorporated into the solutions to improve business?
I’ve left your ruler - Saturn - till last because it’s conjunct the Fixed Star Spica - a fortunate star which promises success and wealth. You therefore have some really good help - plus Saturn is Exalted in Libra and in excellent health! It’s also a fortunate thing (according to the ancient writers) that Saturn aspectsthe Asc (as 1 ruler) as will the Moon - eventually - on 1st or 2nd December. Jupiter also rules most of the 1st House as well as the business - putting you v. close together.
IN SUMMARY - Although you’re going backwards or being held back at present, things should improve. There are no malefic planets in your 1st House or aspecting it (Mars has separated). Saturn is 1 ruler so his trine is helpful. Venus (customers’ $) will conjunct Mars (your $) about 4 or 5 December. Your thinking about the business needs to start working creatively and immediately. You've got what it takes to improve things. Communication with customers needs to be worked on, ready for 15 Dec when Mercury goes direct again. ____
