So, Venus is having the most dignities and we look first to Venus as potential Alcocoden, if she makes an aspect to the Moon.
But she does not make an aspect. She is in 12th in Aquarius (sign in inconjunction to the Moon in cancer, old authors didn't knew about this aspect and they said that planets in inconjunct signs does not share their 'rays' to one another).
So we look for the 2nd best "Almuten" of the Moon and that is Jupiter.
They are in wide conjunction but still in the Moiety between these two (12.15).
So, Moon is Hyleg, Jupiter is Alcocoden.
Jupiter in Succedent house and Exaltation it would give its middle years (45.5)
Does not make an aspect with benefic nor malefic.
So we would stick to these years. But we are again out.
Omnisphericus, Jupiter is Retrograde in Joplin's chart. If alcocoden is Retrograde, years will be subtracted. I remember having read that 1/4th of alcocoden years are subtracted if it is retrograde. Yet, it might be 1/3rd as well but in my own examination with charts I subtract 1/4th and it seems consistent. In Joplin's case 1/4th of 45.5 is 11.37 (45.5-11.37) When subtracted it makes 34.13 If we subtract 1/3rd then it makes 30.16 it is close but still more than her real life span.
