I have been delving into more traditional literature of astrology lately. I’m absolutely fascinated! It also addresses one of my weak points as an astrologer: including the nature of the signs. Since traditional astrology places high value on Essential Dignities, maybe it will have a lasting effect so I can start to include it in my interpretations more easily. Traditional and modern are two completely different fields of play, but I’m hoping one will inspire me to include it in the other. I also love the huge amounts of information on the actual usage of Arabic parts; lot of fortune, lot of marriage, lot of (…). In addition, it’s a beautiful read. Expect more about traditional astrology on this site in the future.
I calculated this horary for a very small and insignificant question. A question “just because I was interested”. On the surface the question appeared to be answered in a harmless and satisfying way. It was when I took a look at the fixed stars near significators that I was shocked since they all point towards one particular thing which wasn’t at all harmless and satisfying.
The fixed stars in question:
Mirach [conjunct Moon]
Alshat [conjunct Mercury]
Bos [conjunct Mercury]
Giedi [conjunct Mercury]
Oculus [conjunct Mercury]
Denebola [conjunct Saturn]
Procyon [conjunct Saturn]
I’ve always been very positive about the value of fixed stars in horary astrology as often a fixed star aspecting one of the significators ‘casts the die’ so to speak. The planets line it up, fixed stars put the finger in the right spot. The chart posted contains conflicting information and therefor I cannot pass judgement. Only time will tell if the fixed stars would overrule the significator aspects.
