A horary about a work decision

Curious as I am about horary astrology I pondered whether I had made a correct decision just recently. The exact details can’t be disclosed but “Did I make the right decision about something work related?” will be enough for you to follow.

The chart that was calculated:

A horary about work decisions

A horary about work decisions

Own signficators: Moon, Mars
Topic significators: Mercury, Saturn.
Involved party significator: Venus, Sun, Mercury, Mars.
In nodal degree: Moon.

What immediately stands out is the amount of objects involved. I’m usually careful to pass judgement when the lot of the chart is involved because to me that’s a pollution regarding the answer. However, when there’s good ingoing aspects I’m inclined to consider. The chart to me is definitely radical. As Saturn is my Work and the Moon signifies myself I think I’m on the right track since the Moon is trining Saturn very soon. However, Jupiter is aspecting the Moon first when it comes to completing the question! There is to be some form of communication from those signified by Venus; which suits what I already know perfectly. Venus, who is not aspected that smoothly! From the 7th house, it is the 3rd (communication): Jupiter as ruler of Saggitarius. A few minutes after I calculated this chart, I had gotten this news. I have no other conclusion to make then whatever the Moon/Jupiter conjunction might be, it will soon be resolved by the Saturn/Moon trine. Two degrees ago, there was also the Moon/Sun sextile, another indication that this decision would be the best possible thing to do at the time. Likewise to the Mars/Saturn sextile.

The big question in this chart is the Sun. It’s significator for a party involved, but I could say exactly the same thing to include it as one of my own significators. The sixth house cusp is Leo. Real conclusive answers could have only been given if this significator would belong to one or the other.

While it’s hard to differentiate between mine and thine, whatever I decided will come to a positive conlusion pretty soon when looking at the Moon’s aspects. By Jove, what do I have to expect from you? There are some notes about Jupiter I’m withholding.

The Moon is with the fixed star Ascella “Good judgement” and “Good fortune”.

Edit: the time has now passed enough to look back at this chart and compare the outcome with the prognoses. The decision was indeed best, but the aspect Moon makes to Jupiter actually seemed to coincide with something that needed to be cleared first before the work could continue. “By Jove, what do I have to expect from you?” was the right hunch.

The only problem is, the Moon’s approach to Jupiter took 3 days. That’s also plus minus the number of degrees for the aspect to become exact. When you look carefully there’s another aspect the Moon will make to a significator before it leaves it’s sign. It’s Mercury at 28 degrees. If you can take a day for a degree in this chart, the Moon/Mercury square is going to be exact plus/minus 16 days from the 3rd of November on the 17th or 18th of November. I know this date to be an important ‘continuation’ of this question. Should I become worried now? I honestly don’t know. Seeing it makes me uneasy though.

Horary astrology and derived houses

A much debated point in horary astrology is ‘when to use derived houses’. Maybe it’s just me but I keep seeing differences in how it’s being used in interpretation. It’s often an issue when the question you ask becomes really complex. No horary book I’ve read so far was able to give me a ready-made answer, so I guess we’re just left on our own to figure it out each time. As a real Cappy Asc/ Virgo Sun, I decided to at least find a structure for myself in this ‘blur’ of when to use derived houses in a horary.

I was reading a topic today about a conspiracy theory where the government would be consciously polluting the land so the population would decrease. The question was really eye catching and so was the analysis! I just had to try and make sense of the chart myself. I found that I prefer to use less significators and find strict rules on how to apply the logic much more comforting (damned neat freaks, those virgo’s).

The exact question was “Is there a plan to deliberately reduce world population?” The topic “government” has been cut and so was “food”, “land” and “poison” which seemed to be the starting point for this question.
