Horary Round 4 Readings and Feedback

Minderwiz

For this round of readings I'm using two threads. The first is for the questions and this one is for the readings and the feedback. The purpose of the division is to ensure (hopefully!) that I work through the questions in order and don't inadvertently miss someone out.

Please do not post questions in this thread - they won't get answered because I won't be looking for them and they'll get 'lost'. If you have any supplementary questions directly related to your main reading it's OK to ask here but any fresh questions please post in the Questions thread.

I'll copy the questions to this thread as I get round to the reading, so it will be clear what the question was.

Right, so let's kick off with the first reading :)

Hello Minderwiz nice to hear from you again. Hope you had a great time!!!

I would like a horary reading please!

Im about to go to school, for cosmetology. I would like to know if this is a good choice for me, and what would be the results in the short and long run. If not which career would be better for me.

Thanks in advance.

Firstly it took me three attempts (the maximum that I will allow) to get a radical chart. The first two both had 0 degrees of a sign rising. That would suggest that it might be too early to come up with a valid answer. However having got a radical chart on the third attempt, I will go ahead.

The chart has Taurus rising, so your significator is Venus - very appropriate for this question. It was cast during the hour of Mars (not really a sympathetic planet).

The question relates to both study and career. Study and higher education is a ninth House matter and career is a tenth House matter. Both houses fall in Capricorn, ruled by Saturn (incidentally the ruler of the skin). Saturn's rulership is both relevant to the proposed area of study and career and the rulership of both shows that study and career are inextricably linked.

Next I will look at the condition of the two main significators and of the Moon, the co-significator in Horary questions. Venus is in Libra, so is high in essential dignity. Accidentally, Venus is not in good shape, being oriental and slow in motion, having just turned direct and in the sixth. That does not do enough to remove Venus' positive dignity by any means - so we have a fairly strong Venus. The sixth placement perhaps has another meaning - the sixth is concerned with ill-health and that could well be said to be a relevant placement for the question.

Saturn is also in Libra where it is exalted and has triplicity rulersipso it too has plenty of essential dignity. Accidentally it is in the sixth, but as above, that might well be a relevant house for this question.

Venus is actually moving away from Saturn, which might suggest that you are moving away from that career/study course. But there is a mutual reception between Venus and Saturn through rulership/exaltation and that may well be enough to effect a positive answer to the question.

The Moon as your co-significator, is in Gemini. The Moon is slow and weak in essential dignity but it is applying to a trine with Saturn, the course and the career. Given the existing mutual reception and the application of the Moon to Saturn, I'd say that your choice of course and career is a good one for you.

The overall chart seems to support that view, given the nature of the significators and their placements. So go for it!!

BTW Saturn is the strongest planet in this chart in terms of essential dignity and it's also direct, fast and oriental (good for Saturn) so this career appears not only right for you but one that offers good success.

Wow Im impress!! I am actually thinking about going from cosmetology to massage therapy. Im still not sure about this change, but it might happen because of some situation going on.


I kind of didn't understand the part about ill health, is there the possibility that it could be me??
Thanks again minderwiz, take care!!!!☺

In the context of the question, I'd say it's other people's, that is you and your career are dealing with ill health through therapeutic and health care side of cosmetology. Saturn rules the skin, so I'd say that a specialism in skin care and related issues, possibly for people with real skin problems could be an ultimate development.

Massage is also skin related (though obviously more concerned with the muscles underneath) and involves direct contact with the skin and treatment of it through massage oils. So they are not unrelated and indeed both might be complementary parts of your practice.

Given the prominence of the sixth though I think you should be looking mainly for a career which involves therapy rather than simply the beauty industry.

Hello!

I'd like to make a transition to shift my work from business operations in a corporate setting to business in a self-employed/holistic/humanitarian management/therapy.

Could I get some insight into if this is a good time to shift into something and if it would be worth it/more financially and personally fulfilling for me?

EDIT:

To provide more specifics/clarity, I have two businesses, but as I transition into them, I'm hoping to exchange with a Reiki teacher to get my Masters (I have level 2) and I'd like to focus on doing healing and shamanic therapy while I work towards my holistic practice, while earning enough to let me leave my current employment. So, as above, it is that path that I am seeking to pursue a much greater personal and financial fulfillment with.

This is clearly a career question which falls into the tenth House, though there may be knock-on's for other Houses. The chart is cast at the hour of the Sun - the Day ruler of the Fire triplicity. Pisces rises, which is ruled by Jupiter, the ruler of the Fire triplicity by Night. So we have agreement between Hour ruler and the ruler of the Ascendant. There's one important consideration - Saturn is in the seventh. That is often seen as indicating that the judgement of the Astrologer might be suspect (The Astrologer is given the seventh, though this is rarely important in the detail of a reading). In this case Saturn is full of essential dignity and has a lot of accidental dignity as well, so I'm going to ignore this consideration and proceed with the reading.

I need to choose a significator for you. In the vast majority of cases this is the ruler of the First. However if I give that to you I have a problem with the tenth, which is also ruled by Jupiter, through Sagittarius. There's no other planet in the tenth and no planet has more dignity than Jupiter. However in Pisces, Venus is exalted and at the degree of the Ascendant, has more dignity than Jupiter. So I will use Venus to signify you and Jupiter to signify the career path.

Venus (You) is in dignity in Libra and placed in the seventh (though not in Virgo the sign on the cusp). Venus is slow, having just turned direct and oriental, which are accidental debilities. Nevertheless it is quite strong in this chart. Your significator being strong shows that you do have control over decisions - the issue is whether you take the correct decision (for you).

Jupiter signifies your career - or rather your choice of new career, in this question. Jupiter is placed in Pisces - it's own sign and is conjunct the Ascendant. The new career has come to you - so you have real power over it. Jupiter also rules the ninth house of God - dreams, spirit, visions and professionals.

The remaining issue is to consider the income that will be generated. Taurus lies on the second cusp, In a way this signifies that your income is under your own control, as I've used Venus to signify you. If I were to look at income specifically, I'd use the Moon, which is exalted in Taurus in order to have a separate significator. The Moon in this chart is peregrine and so essentially weak. It is placed conjunct the Descendant and so opposes the new career, but is also afflicted by Mars, through opposition. This seems to suggest that generation of income could be a real problem.

So yes the career is just what you want but the earnings issue does not look at all good. If you take the career move now you are taking a big financial risk - whether you take that risk is your choice as you control the situation

Thank you! This makes complete sense. I have been taking the proactive approach to achieving it but with the goal that I will remain in my current position and work until either something happens OR I do produce the income. Clearly this is something that is good for me BUT perhaps I need to supplement it with other things that are more secure in income generation. As it stands now, I'd be taking a risk as there's no viable income in two of my projects for the time being, and my other work requires me to establish a name and develop a clientelle base. Perhaps I could use my power to drive it in the direction I desire; combining with other forces, factors and decisions to achieve my dream with the risks and appropriate rewards weighed and supplemented.

Thanks!

Your question related to 'Now' and the financial issues therefore relate to the current situation - which fits with your own views. Things can change in the future so your strategy makes very good sense.

I wish you the best of luck when the time comes (and it will come) to take that step to your own 'business'

I'd love one on love life.

I would like to see what the stars have to say about any significant romance opportunities over the next 6 months?

Thank You! :heart:

The chart cast has Aries rising with Libra on the descendant - a Mars/Venus axis seems appropriate for this question. The chart is cast during the hour of Jupiter and both Mars and Jupiter are part of the fire triplicity, so this chart seems radical.

You are signified by Mars in this chart, the possible 'other' is signified by Venus. Mars is in Sagittarius where it is peregrine and in the eighth house. Mars therefore is not in good condition and you are both essentially weak - you have little power to influence events. Indeed peregrine signifies someone or something that is adrift or wandering without purpose, or homeless (in terms of the question). The eighth House is in an inconjunct relationship with the seventh - it can't be seen. So you are not only week but 'invisible' to that romantic 'other'. This does not look good.

Venus is in the reverse situation. Placed in Libra and on the Descendant she has both power and position. The real issue therefore is, is there anyway that Venus can get to see Mars - that you and the romantic 'other' are brought together?

Venus is in late Libra, and moving slowly after turning direct. Mars is at 19 degrees Sagittarius. Normally this would suggest that the sextile aspect between them has passed and Venus is now moving away - a failure to bring you two together. However Mars is currently the faster planet, so there might be a chance that Mars will apply to Venus by sextile. The answer is that it will indeed apply but before the aspect can be perfected Venus will change sign and the force of that sextile will be lost.

However may not lost, Mercury has recently conjoined with Mars, and is now moving ahead at 22 Sagittarius. Consulting the ephemeris Mercury almost but not quite catches Venus before she changes sign. It's only by less than half a degree but technically the aspect is not perfected. That close I'm loathe to say that nothing will definitely come of it - you might just get lucky right at the end of the period, or see or meet someone who will eventually take on that role. If this does work it's likely to be through the auspices of a mutual friend, or someone whose actions brings you two together.

Sorry that there isn't a definite Yes or No, but an enticing possiblility :)

Edited to add chart

I would like one too...:)

Can you tell me if you see a new job on the horizon, maybe next six months ?

Thanks, and no rush !!!!

As this question relates to career and jobs, the relevant Houses are the First, which is for you and the Tenth, which is for the job. As Aquarius is rising, Saturn is your significator. The usual consideration to be careful with Saturn in the seventh House does not apply here, as Saturn in a significator in the Horary. Saturn is in exaltation in Libra, and is essentially powerful, as it also the Day ruler for the Air Triplicity. You therefore are in a strong position - you have highly marketable skills, and with Saturn in the Seventh, you would normally be considered very 'visible' to any prospective employer. In this case the Seventh is a very large House, the Descendant actually falling in mid Leo, so you are not as noticable as the House placement would suggest, though the position could be much worse.

The possible employer, is signified by the ruler of the tenth, Jupiter. Jupiter is in Pisces, and so is in dignity. The employer is in a strong position but they are not as strong as you and Jupiter is placed in the first - your house. If Jupiter were in Aquarius rather than early Pisces, I'd say there's a good chance that they will come beating on your door and offering you that job. However, like Saturn, Jupiter is in a different sign than that on it's house cusp. So, not as weak as we would like to see but still a promising situation for you.

There is no prospective aspect between Jupiter and Saturn, However there is a connection through antiscion, which is a positive relationship. Furthermore the Moon might just carry out a translation of light - it has aspected Saturn by square and will go on to it's next aspect, a trine to Jupiter. It's the square there that gives some concern. A square aspect in Astrology rarely produces the result that is required or if it does, then the result does not give the expected payoff.

My feeling is that the answer to the question is yes! you ought to get a new job within the time period. This might not be quite straightforward, and you might need the help of a third party to get your new job. The antiscion relationship might well be enough to render the third party's help unnecessary and also mean that there's no regrets after you get it!
