Re: CHAT - anything goes thread - free discussion for everyone - all topics welcome
Jupiter, I found an interesting map. There are 2 angles which possibly out of the 10th house and 4th house. Are they able to be identifying as angular house despite the angle is not in the 10th house and 4th house? Thank you in advance.

I quite agree. On the "Chat Thread", no need for a "topic" or a "discussion".

personal questions happened because there is no "topic" or "discussion". that's why our members usually get lost or lost the importance of the "chat"!

perhaps you refer to
MC/IC angles when located other than in 10th/4th houses
ANGULAR HOUSE when using WHOLESIGN HOUSES = 1st/7th/4th/10th houses
"THE ANGLES OF A CHART" = ASC/DESC/MC/IC

Re: CHAT - anything goes thread - free discussion for everyone - all topics welcome
*
Shaolin monks believe that strength comes only from the mind
hence there are almost no limits
in what they can do and endure while training their bodies.
They practice balance, strength, flexibility, endurance and self-defense
being capable to endure unimaginable pains without blinking.
They are living role-models for people who complain for nothing
for people who expect others
do things in their place
or on their behalf
for lazy people
for fearful people
for the people who self-victimize all the time
throwing responsibility on anything and anyone else
and avoiding assuming their own responsibility.

Yes, it's true I understand but the angle is not in angular, example: MC in 9th house and IC automatically in 3th house. My initial thought is the angle's power would be less powerful because the angle is in Cadent. Is that true?

Remember 3rd/9th houses are aspecting ascendant
in conrast
both 6th and 12th houses as well as being CADENT are IN AVERSION
to the ascendant
so
since planets in 3rd/9th houses ASPECT ASCENDANT
then
3rd/9th houses are considered preferable places for planets
keep in mind that
MC/IC location is entirely dependent on location North/South of Equator
i.e.
for example
when using any quadrant bases system such as the usual default Placidus
nativities at extremes North/South of the Equator
display some houses as being almost non-existent
and others seem exaggeratedly extensive
and so
using WHOLE SIGN HOUSES clarifies with reference to topics
however
even with WHOLE SIGN HOUSES MC/IC may appear on 9th/3rd axis
even 12th/6th axis
and thus
EITHER
MC/IC considered less powerful when placed 9th/3rd or 12th/6th
OR
MC/IC considered to empower 9th/3rd or 12th/6th
also
consider HOUSE SIGNFICIATIONS
i.e.
when MC/IC appears 9th/3rd or 12th/6th
then the SIGNIFICATIONS of 9th/3rd or 12th/6th are linked to 10th house significations
Any planet that is in conjunction with an angle
will have a marked influence that resonates throughout the chart
and greatly colours its overall meaning.
Because of their primary importance
the angles are often referred to as the 'cardinal points'
and they relate directly to the cardinal directions east, south, west and north.
The word 'cardinal' comes from the Latin cardo meaning 'hinge',
indicating something of primary importance.
Ancient astrologers viewed the cardinal points
as the great axis that held the earth in position
thus Manilius, writing in the first century BC, asserts:
These points are charged with exceptional powers
and the influence they exert on fate is the greatest known to our science
because the celestial circle is totally held in position by them
as by eternal supports.
Angular houses (sometimes called cardinal houses)
are those that begin with the angles.
When a planet is placed in an angular aka cardinal house
it is performing more powerfully.
Whatever it represents will show its force in a swift and dynamic fashion.
The succeedent houses are so named because
the planets within them succeed by the diurnal movement of the heavens
to the cardinal position.
These planets experience a position of mediocre strength.
The word 'cadent' means 'fallen'
and is the root of the word cadaver meaning corpse.
A planet in a cadent house
has been carried by the diurnal movement away from the cardinal position
symbolising something that has moved from a position of power
into a condition of weakness
or a fall from grace http://www.skyscript.co.uk/horary1d.html

Re: CHAT - anything goes thread - free discussion for everyone - all topics welcome
Has anyone on this forum experienced Satori? It is described as a glimpse of enlightenment and it happened spontaneously for me. It was an amazing feeling, but amazing sounds too energetic because I was hyper aware of the energy around me, but in a very calm, focused way. It lasted near enough all day and when I went outside, experiencing the energy coming from the people around me was just fantastic. It helped me realize the lense through which we experience life is given to us from our childhood, like stress, anxiety etc

It is derived from the Japanese verb satoru.

Rejoicing🙏🎵🗝️📚Once again the perfect Buddha said to Youthful Moonlight:
Youthful one, this being so
a bodhisattva mahasattva
who aspires to achieve this samadhi
and who wishes to awaken quickly, truly, and fully
to unexcelled true and complete enlightenment
should be skilled in means.
Youthful one, how does a bodhisattva mahasattva
become skilled in means?
Youthful one, a bodhisattva mahasattva
should keep an attitude of connectedness
to all sentient beings.
A bodhisattva mahasattva
should thus rejoice in the good roots of sentient beings
and in whatever merit they may have.
Three times a day and three times a night, he should rejoice
in the good roots of all beings
and in their accumulation of merit, and then
with the resolve aimed at the state of omniscient enlightenment
he should give away his good roots
and accumulated merit to all sentient beings.
Youthful one
by possessing the merit resulting from being skilled in means
a bodhisattva mahasattva
will quickly attain this samadhi
and he will quickly awaken
truly and fully to unexcelled true and complete enlightenment.
