		<description>I truly love this picture/image. Arachne is my spirit guide. Most get animals, I have her and she is very protective and very special. And my totem of course, is the black widow. Fitting really :)

I am glad to have stumbled upon this image. Thank you</description>

		<description>Depends on what type of prediction technique you are using. There are multiple to choose from: transits, progressions, solar arc, etc. I&#039;m guessing you mean transitions. You actually won&#039;t have to calculate anything at all if that&#039;s the case. You simply look up the position of Jupiter in the Ephemeris. 6000 years of Ephemeris are available online in PDF format at astro.com, here:
http://www.astro.com/swisseph/swepha_e.htm 

So if this person is born now in 2009, five years later would be 2014. Look in the column for Jupiter in that year and you find the position of Jupiter. 
http://www.astro.com/swisseph/ae/2000/ae_2014.pdf

For progressions there are several kinds of progression. Symbolic progression is the easiest, you simply add 1 degree to every planet in the chart. So if Jupiter is 5 degrees Saggitarius, in five years that&#039;s 10 degrees Saggitarius. For symbolic progressions retrograde movement is not important. Pluto will go just as fast as the rest of the planets. Not many astrologers use this method though. I will dedicate an entry on progressions and how they are used soon.</description>

		<description>Hello, Could you also describe how to manually calculate planetary movements?  For example, if I draw up a natal chart for someone and Jupiter is in house 4, can I calculate where Jupiter would be in 5 years?  Is it as simple as adding 1/12 of the circle for each year?  Or does retrograde movement have any effect?  What about Pluto?

Thank you.</description>

		<description>Ah, the form on my site isn&#039;t only meant for horaries. I just simply preferred to answer this way because it&#039;s been a topic of much heated debate in astrology; so there&#039;s a lot written about it. Everytime you receive a question though, it&#039;s possible to draw a horary in aid or assistance for answering the question. 

Yup, I use a max of 10 degrees orbs on the lights (Moon/Sun). Though the tighter the aspect is, the more prominent. I tend to take it less in account if it&#039;s a wide orb. 

The same kind of Uranus transit Yamashita has in his 10th house right now;) Uranus is famous for breaking free from conventions, doing things you normally wouldn&#039;t have. Like a fly attracted to fly paper, you can&#039;t help yourself. As a resident 10th house Uranus myself: don&#039;t be surprised you&#039;ll find yourself struggling more and more with issues of freedom, fighting the status quo and just doing things to shock people. What&#039;s so great of course, we can already see this in Yamashita&#039;s behaviour at this time (since it has already passed his MC a few times). It was at the last passing he figured out he was unhappy with his &#039;freedom&#039;; wanting to just take it a little bit more his &#039;way&#039;. When it is &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.afad.nl/alternate/2009/05/03/planetary-wallpaper-series-uranus-yamapi/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Uranus&lt;/a&gt;, it&#039;s not a form of selfishness, I think it&#039;s just a certain point in time you just can&#039;t relate to what&#039;s considered &#039;the paved road ahead&#039;. It&#039;s of course not all joy, I think you can guess where the discrepancy is. I&#039;m expecting a lot from Yamashita when it hits Mercury, Venus, Sun. Because, I think it will give him what is required &quot;the spark of invention&quot; to reinvent himself in ways he never thought possible. And so, you will experience a similar feeling as well in your area of occupation.   

It&#039;s not for nothing, still my favorite wallpaper.</description>

		<description>Hi, I just wanted to say =thank you= again for answering my question in greater detail.

When I ran the composite, it was very much the same as our natal charts with minor differences, albeit equally important. The moon conj. uranus for example - I do not have this aspect personally, but he does(wide orb?).

Well, I guess I&#039;ll see which career I would end up choosing in a few more years.. or end up not choosing. Oooh, I cannot wait for those Uranus transits. lol

I should have stated it wasn&#039;t an horary, my apologies. ;)


Thanks! :)</description>

		<description>Trish, I&#039;m not sure exactly what you&#039;re aiming at from your comment. This tutorial only teaches how to calculate the houses and the planets. Checking for aspects is another ballgame. 

Every sign is 30 degrees. If there is a planet in Libra at 22 degrees, the sextile would be formed in Saggitarius (60), the square in Capricorn (90), the trine in Aquarius (120); providing you find another planet or object in these signs at around 22 degrees. 

There is a margin for aspects, it doesn&#039;t need to be found exactly at 22 degrees. This is called &quot;orb&quot;. I usually use 6 degrees and 10 degrees for Sun/Moon. So it could be a planet in Saggitarius forming a sextile when it&#039;s located at 16 degrees. This is called an &quot;Ingoing aspect&quot;, because it still needs to go towards 22 degrees from the other planet. Likewise, 28 degrees is an &quot;Outgoing aspect&quot;. It&#039;s still within orb, but has already been full.</description>
