Mars in good aspect to Saturn is likely to look before he leaps, to count the cost and plan his next move, and see it accomplished.

Venus conjunct Uranus means love at first sight and a hasty marriage.

Venus and Saturn in any aspect will stabilize and cool the affectional nature towards sentiment rather than sentimentality.

When transiting Saturn is in an empty house, watch for any lunation that conjoins him. A matter or person of that house will become active in a new development if a New Moon. If it is a Full Moon, something long-pending will work to completion.

In practically any aspect to Jupiter or Venus, Mars is luckier than he realizes.

Saturn is the Taskmaster...yet he is probably our greatest friend because it is only through his lessons that we improve as humans and learn the humility entitling us to pass the Portals.

The Moon in angular houses signifies changes that bring publicity, presence in court, relinquishment real estate, wide dispersal of the family, some domestic discord, changes in the home, and in the place of employment.

Where Venus is by house, there you find a woman who means much to you.

Bear with one who is rude to you, knowing that he is struggling to overcome his Mars, which must be square to a malefic planet in his chart.

Any aspect between Venus and Neptune idealizes love; and if in angular houses, puts the beloved one on a pedestal.

There is sheer luck in life - financial if also in aspect to gainful-Jupiter or windfall-Uranus or golden-Sun

Where Saturn is a tool and Mars a weapon, Mercury is an instrument, the keenest and most useful of all.

Uranus brings things to pass unexpectedly and suddenly, and always with some extraordinary departure from the norm.

He stops matters in their tracks, re-routing them or detouring them contrary to an original plan.

Where Mars is based at birth shows what is "cut out to be cut out" in your life - the condition, person, or thing you will have to go on without.

For the Pluto/Scorpio parts of your chart, this is all spies, assassins, private and state secrets, and a good dose of Mars (weapons and sex).

As always, the Brits deliver excellent writing. Men and women have equal power.

Planets retrograde at birth show that you use their power indirectly.

They also reveal something of the house that they are in that you keep to yourself.

Saturn in Gemini or aspecting planets in Gemini has many dealings with relatives, neighbors, and children. He shows much painstaking writing and re-writing of the same thing and will repeat himself in speaking.

(I would add that Saturn in the 3rd house will also manifest this way)

Where you have Venus in your chart is where you will be desirous of co-operating.

Venus is the great reconciler, bringing peace to that department and mending breaches, unobtrusively sharing what she has to give, and always improving the conditions there.
December 7, 2024 at 12:54 PM
Wherever you have Saturn by house, that is the department where you take over the management of its affairs, and sometimes its persons as well.
December 6, 2024 at 12:26 PM
If your natal Mars makes no applying aspect at all, you are unusually independent, self-reliant, and self-sufficient.

If another planet is applying to Mars at birth, someone else comes to you for aid or encouragement.

Mars by sign tells the part of the body liable to inflammatory pathology.

In the first decanate, it is the upper part of the organ. In the second, the middle part. In the last decanate, the lower part of the organ.

Planets in mutual reception: they always see eye to eye; they share and share alike, so nothing goes awry; even if they break a rule, or some convention flout; whatever one gets into, the other gets him out.
December 4, 2024 at 12:47 PM
Venus rules all kinds of trimmings: lace, braid, ribbons, and especially fringe.

She grants the good of the house she is in, but also what may be called "fringe benefits," or an added benefit.

Uranus (lightning, electricity) cuts THROUGH, Saturn (The Reaper) cuts DOWN, and Mars (The Surgeon) cuts OUT.

Your individual approach in making and meeting change is described by the planet the Moon last aspected before your birth.
