my question is going to be relationship type topic and I can revise it if I need to or I can completely go with something related but different and more general. I'd like to know if I will be in a committed romantic relationship with B within the year?
I know if it says no that I am to not give up hope and if it says yes that I am to not just sit back and do nothing.
This is a relationship question. The chart cast was on the day of Mars (Tuesday) and the hour of Venus - which seems appropriate and also has Scorpio rising (Mars rules) and the Seventh is Taurus (Venus rules). My only reservations are: The houses would be better the other way around for a question posed by a female and Mars does not 'agree' with the hour ruler Venus.
Two further considerations before Judgement are that the Moon is slow and that the Ascendant is in the Via Combusta (mid Libra to mid Scorpio). Lilly only treats the Moon in the Via Combusta as a consideration, so I'll ignore that one. A slow Moon might limit her ability to assist in the matter.
Both Mars and Venus have essential dignity. Mars through mutual receptions with Mercury and the Sun Terms and Face) but more importantly it's in the Triplicity of Venus - you have a desire to be with 'Venus'.
Venus is very well dignified with a mutual reception through sign rulership with the Moon, being in it's own triplicity and Terms. However a worry is that it's in the Fall of Mars, 'Venus' doesn't want to be with you. Of the two Venus is much stronger in essential dignity. Mars has the stronger accidental dignity being in the tenth. You are in the right place, and that will work in your favour.
The next thing to look for is any contacts between the two, either currently or in the immediate future. Venus in 23 degrees Cancer is applying to Mars in 0 degrees Virgo but the conjunction will not occur till both planets are in Libra. As both planets will have to change signs this is not testimony for the possibility of the matter.
In horaries the Moon acts as a co-significator for the querent. The Moon is at 0 degrees Taurus applying to Mars by Trine and only 12 minutes from perfection. In itself this is a testimony for the matter but not enough for deciding for it, though Moon in Taurus shows a mutual reception with Venus in Cancer, and of course the Moon is a female symbol.
As the Moon moves through Taurus it will eventually apply to a sextile with Venus and this will be perfected before Venus changes sign. Usually though, such a travel would bring the Moon into major aspect with one of the other planets and that would prohibit the matter, However in this case, no such aspect would take place - the Moon's next major aspect, following the trine to Mars, is the sextile to Venus. This is further testimony for the matter.
On balance this chart seems to favour the possibility of the matter. Factors in favour are Mars in Venus' triplicity, the Moon's mutual reception with Venus and its translation of light between Mars and Venus.
Factors against are the slow Moon, (but not slow enough to prevent the translation) Venus in the Fall of Mars and the lack of aspect between Mars and Venus - which is overcome by the Moon's translation of light (taking the light from Mars to Venus by aspecting each in turn).
