The People in Your Astrological Houses

The People in Your Astrological Houses

People of the Astrological Houses

Where’s Waldo?

Years ago and thinking about people, when I first started learning astrology and particularly the astrological houses, I discovered that in the 3rd house are your siblings, which means your brothers or sisters. So, I looked in my third house and there I had Mars and Venus which were supposed to represent my brother and sister.

And I thought, “Gosh this astrology lark is very clever” because I have one brother (Mars) and I have one sister (Venus) and I thought, “This is brilliant!”

To me, this perfect alignment between what the chart said and what was real for me was one more indicator about why I should learn astrology and how astrology is so great.

Of course, the more I dug into the planets in the houses which represent the people in our lives, I realized that there is a subtlety to these interpretations. This what I’m going to be chatting about today.

When reading an astrological chart, frequently you want to know about people in your life and where they may be represented in your birth chart. This is a quick guide to most of the people that you will encounter in your life and the houses in which you can find them. Any planets in these houses will suggest the energy of the type of person within the house.

Example: 7th House

For example, if you have three planets in your 7th house of marriage, it suggests that you will be married or have close personal relationship with three specific people who are of the nature of the planets themselves.

The first partner will be indicated by the planet that is most clockwise in the house. This could also be said as the planet that would rise first over the Ascendant to the planet nearest to the house cusp on the clockwise side. The second planet suggests the second partner and the third planet suggests the third person. This goes the same for any business partners as well.

Vacant Houses

If a house is empty and has no planets, it doesn’t mean that those people-of-the-house do not exist in your life, but rather you would look to the ruler of the sign on the cusp of the house, as that planet will then be indicative of these types of people in your life.

Think about it, not everyone has a planet in the 1st house, but everyone is alive and has a body, which is represented by the 1st house.

Vacant houses suggest that the focus of the person’s life will not be in a place where the planets are not. Where the planets are indicates where the individual will bring focus to that area of their life and the people within in it.

 

Example: 5th House

If you do not have planets in the 5th house of children, it does not mean that you will not have kids, but that they may not be the be all and end all of your life experience. Your offspring could easily be a pleasure and not cause unnecessary concerns for you. Your focus in this lifetime will be where your natal planets actually are.

Overview

If you are a consulting astrologer dealing with clients who perhaps bring up issues surrounding their sister, their vet, their lawyer or whomever, you will know in which house to explore to find indications around how that person will impact your client’s life.

As you interpret the birth charts of your clients there will be other people who crop up who may not be on this list, but there is always a way to work them out through derivative houses. Or you can just consider what role that person would be playing in your client’s life.

I hope you enjoy this article about the people in your chart. And it gives you something to think about during the next week.

Mars in Leo

Mars in Leo

Author: Arwynne O’Neill   –   Published: October 2024

Mars in Transit

Mars takes 685 days to go all the way around the zodiac, meaning it spends an average of 8 weeks in each sign, but that is wildly variable. It can spend as little as 6 or 7 weeks in a sign, or as long as several months, like the 2024-2025 transit. Mars enters Leo on November 3, 2024 and goes retrograde on December 6, while making an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius, which is a potentially volatile aspect.
 
Pluto is entering Aquarius for the last time on November 19, after a very long stay in the final degree of Capricorn and a couple of retrogrades since 2023. Try your best to avoid conflicts with others around December 6 because sparks could really fly and the effects could be lasting if tensions erupt into open aggression.
 
Mars will retrograde back into Cancer on January 6, and it will continue its retrograde movement until February 23, when it stations direct and moves back into Leo on April 18, where it will stay until June 17. So if you have Mars or any major planets in Leo or Cancer, you’ll want to take a note of those dates and the degree of your planets to see when they will be activated by the movements of Mars. These could be critical days for you.

Mars in the Birth Chart

The planet Mars can be in any house or sign because Mars’s orbit is outside the orbit of Earth. Unlike Mercury and Venus which, from our perspective on Earth, only ever travel a couple of signs away from the Sun. So for example, if you have a Virgo sun, you can only have Mercury in either Leo, Virgo or Libra, or one sign away.

Similarly, if you have the sun in Virgo, you can only ever have Venus two signs away at most, meaning Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra or Scorpio. But you could have Mars in any sign.

Mars is the planet of action of desire, activity, aggression and, as Alison Price likes to say, what gets you up off the couch. It also plays a significant role in relationships, along with Venus, as it describes the preferred style with which you go after what you want in relationships, career, exercise… and anything else that requires positive action and initiative.

For example, when Mars is in Aries, the sign that it rules (along with Scorpio), Mars is quintessentially independent, competitive, bold and fiery. Whereas Mars in, say, Cancer is not as naturally comfortable in such a watery, lunar sign.

Mars in Cancer tends to be highly emotional, maybe even passive-aggressive, and it may take a lot more to get the Mars in Cancer person fired up or moving. They may struggle with motivation, assertion, positive action. They may only be moved when their emotions are highly engaged, for better or worse.

Mars in Leo

If you have Mars in Leo here are some keywords that may resonate with you: dramatic, confident, expressive, dramatic, egotistical, possessive, jealous, competitive. This is definitely a drama king or queen placement.

They’re often driven to create or perform, and they have a high tolerance for risk. They tend to be idealistic but their anger erupts when they feel their pride has been injured or they’re not being respected. They can be self-righteous and egotistical but they always act from their heart.

 

They have a strong sense of right and wrong.  They can be very ambitious, whether in their career or in their pursuit of love or the object of their desire, but since Leo is a fixed sign, their energy is more about perseverance than initiating change.

They tend to make good leaders because they have a natural empathy despite their ego. They know what it is to need respect and unless you’ve done something to cross them, they will naturally extend that respect to you.

They’re passionate and fiery but not as impulsive as Mars in Aries. In relationships, they can be very magnetic, authoritative and proud. If they’re kept happy by their partner, they can be among the most loyal of Mars placements, but if neglected they won’t hesitate to seek out the attention and admiration they require outside the relationship.

If their heart isn’t in something, whether it’s work or a relationship, it’s very hard for them to get fired up and motivated. Picture the male lion relaxed at the center of his pride, being fed by the female huntresses and lolling in the grass, satiated and regal. Now picture a solitary lion in a zoo; listless, bones protruding, hair matted, thousand-yard stare on his face. Is there anything sadder or more out of place?

If you have Mars in Leo and you feel like the lion in the zoo, some things that might boost your morale and motivation are:

 

  • Fall in love, passionately and completely. Devote your dramatic urges and desire for over the top self-expression to be fully focused on your object of desire.
  • Take up a competitive sport, preferably with an audience. Join an acting or improv class, learn an instrument, or talk to your boss about a promotion.
  • Stand up for someone who is being overlooked or not living up to their potential.
  • Teach others one of the many skills you’ve mastered; provide guidance, moral support and encouragement.
There is no expression of pride and mentorship quite as genuine as that of Mars in Leo. When the Sun King shines his rays on you, it’s almost impossible not to feel warmed and expanded by their attention!

 

Mars in Leo in Relationships

According to Steven Arroyo’s excellent book, Person to Person Astrology, Mars in Leo has a fondness for living life to the fullest and delights in participating in group events, social rituals and robust, physical activities of all kinds. They usually have a big personality with a dramatic flair and a friendly nature, a knack for telling stories and jokes and an instinct for entertaining and encouraging others. They’re often good at sales professions and have a unique capacity to vitalize organizational efforts. They like to be in control.

Their overall tendencies are dramatic self-assertion, warmth expressiveness and abundant vitality and creative flair. They need to assert themselves dynamically and creatively, but may be seen as pushy or domineering and their physical and sexual energy is stimulated by attention and demonstrative generosity. They need to be complemented and appreciated for their sexual, physical or creative prowess.

Celebrities with Mars in Leo

Beyoncé, Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, George Clooney, Hillary Clinton, Paul McCartney, Serena Williams, Michael Jordan, Cher, Frank Sinatra and Colin Farrell.

Medical Astrology

This time I’m chatting about medical astrology which is a branch of astrology that I personally do not practice, but many of you do. The reason I don’t offer health readings is because I just don’t know that much about the inner workings of the human body. If you are a nurse, doctor, therapist or practitioner in the healthcare world, then knowing some medical astrology will add interest to your daily work. So, I’m just going to go over the basics of health astrology for those who are attracted to this topic and I know many of you are by the number of requests I’ve had about this branch of astrology. I received a particularly long email from Sarah, thank you, which spurred me on to layout the basics about medical astrology, so you can go deeper for yourself.

Disclaimer

I am not a health care expert and any health concerns you have should always be addressed with your qualified healthcare professional.

Overview

Signs

Each zodiac sign is traditionally associated with specific parts of the body.

Planets

The planets, by their rulership of the signs, affect various bodily systems and health conditions.

Chart

Your natal chart can help to identify potential health strengths and vulnerabilities based on the planetary placements and aspects.

Illnesses

You can use transits and progressions to anticipate periods when you might be more susceptible to certain health issues.

Holistic

Health astrology often emphasizes the interconnectedness of mind, body and spirit in overall wellness.

Decumbiture

The Decumbiture Chart

Decumbiture is a specialized branch of medical astrology that focuses on the moment a person falls ill or takes to their bed due to illness. The term comes from the Latin word “decumbere,” which means “to lie down.”

Timing

A decumbiture chart is cast for the exact moment when a person first feels unwell enough to lie down or seek medical attention. This is considered a significant astrological event.

Chart Interpretation

The decumbiture chart is analyzed similarly to a birth chart, but with a specific focus on health matters. You would examine the planetary positions, aspects and house placements to gain insights into the nature and potential course of the illness.

Diagnostic Tool

Practitioners use decumbiture charts to diagnose the type of illness, its severity, and the affected body parts or systems.

Prognosis

The chart is also used to predict the likely duration of the illness and its potential outcome.

Treatment Timing

You can use decumbiture charts to suggest the best time to begin treatment or administer medications.

Historical Significance

Decumbiture was widely practiced in medieval and Renaissance medicine, with many renowned physicians of the time incorporating it into their practice.

Modern Applications

Some astrologers still use decumbiture as part of their health astrology practice.

Health Houses

Focus

In astrology, there are three main houses related to health they are the 6th house, the 12th house and the 1st house and on occasion, the 8th house. Pay attention to the sign on the cusp of the health houses their rulers and condition. Any planet in a health house will directly indicate the issues that may arise health wise.

6th House

Recoverable Health

The 6th house is your main health house and it suggests the recoverable ailments, illnesses or diseases which you experience. Illnesses of the 6th house are things such as a broken ankle that will heal, or when you catch the flu, and you will recover from that. All illnesses and diseases in the 6th house you will recover from.

12th House

Critical Health

The 12th House represents critical illnesses that you may get in your life. These are any diseases that will be fatal or will be terminal if not treated. If you must take medication for the rest of your life for some disease or illness that you have, that then is a 12th house illness. Examples of 12th house illnesses are leprosy, diabetes, cancer, malaria, Ebola and rabies -and of course, there may be more.

1st House

Vitality

The first house relates to your core vitality. This house suggests how well people can bounce back from health issues and get back to normal. It gives information about your physical body.

Elective Surgery

Note the 1st house also suggests non-life-threatening elective surgeries such as Botox, nose-jobs, hair implants, liposuction and facelifts which people may choose to do to improve their appearance.

8th House

Surgery

All surgery, where there is any slicing and dicing, is found in the 8th house. Injections and infusions with needles which penetrate the skin and enter the body, are 8th house related.

Transplants

Organ transplants are represented by the 8th house, as this is the house of the resources of others. Tissue donations, and being an organ donor, like blood, kidney, liver donations, egg and sperm donations are also 8th house in nature. Donating you body to science is an 8th house activity.

Death

The 8th house is the house of death. It may indicate the nature of your death shown by the house ruler and tenants, but also through transits and progressions.

Astrology Business Branding

Astrology Business Branding

Author: Alison Price   –   Published: October 2024

Business Branding

Trending

Branding has become quite a popular trend recently. Your astrology brand is who you are and what you do in the astrology world. It is not your other social media streams or “friends”, it is only your astrology business. When you set up an astrology business, there are a few steps that will help you get going sooner and they can be taken in sequence. Your business brand will generally be shown by the Midheaven and the 10th house complex in your commercial start chart.

Business Name

Choose a good business name that says “astrology” in the name because it helps search engines like the mighty Google find you. Pick a business name which is easy to spell and say over the phone. Good examples of names for your astrology business are Newtown Astrology, Astrology by the River, or We Love Astrology. Avoid business names like “PDQ Industries” and “Audrey and Leslie PLC” because you can’t tell what the business is about just by the name.

Business Colour Palette

You will need to have some colour in your branding. This will ultimately go on your website, logo, favicon, banner, business cards, t-shirts, candles, cards and everything else you do for your business. You can get away with one color, or choose two colors, but at the most you will need three colors.

  • A main colour like red, blue or magenta.
  • A complimentary support colour like teal, yellow or pink.
  • An accent color like black, grey or white.
branding-colors

Your Logo

A logo is a symbol or a little image. Logos are always square. Your logo can be an immediate indication of your business and will be with you a long time. Your logo should be simple and in your chosen colour palette. Logos are you typically used on your business card, on your website favicon, on all your social media streams like TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, X, or Pinterest, they all have a spot for your logo.

starzology-logo

Website and Online Presence

Once you have a business name, you could go on to the next part of building your business with an online presence. Get a self-hosted website with a domain name yourastrologybusiness.com.

Social Media

You could also set up a Facebook business page under your new business name, which is separate from your personal Facebook page. Additionally, you can create a Pinterest business account in your new name, because astrology is a highly visual medium. I always recommend taking your business name to all the channels a securing the name. If you don’t use it today you may wish to later. If you are happy with other social channels, by all means use them. Just keep your business social media channels to business. Don’t post about what you did last night because that juicy information goes on your personal page only.

Business Cards

Print business cards to give to everyone you meet if they ask.

Business Elections

Chart

When you finally decide to set up your astrology business there will be a start chart. This will be the birth chart for your business. If you just decide at your kitchen table you’re going to be working on charts, that’s one thing, but as soon as you start charging money and go professional, you will have a start chart for your astrology business.

Future Business Chart

Maybe you are aware that opening an astrology business is something you’d like to do in the next 12 months. Then certainly you have plenty of time to pick and choose a great start chart for your business. This is known as electional astrology where you are electing to do something in the future such as starting a business.

Existing Business Charts

All listed companies will have a start chart because they have an incorporation date and that would be the date and time for their birth charts. But for solopreneur one-woman-show astrology businesses it’s goes one of two ways:

  • Past: You started in the past doing chart readings.
  • Future: You decide that you are going to finish your training and hang up your shingle and start your astrology business, then you get to choose.

Been Doing Astrology for While

Let’s just look at the first scenario. Say you have been doing astrology on and off for 10 years, and now recently you’ve started charging money for doing charts, but you haven’t yet formed a business. Now you need that start chart and there is two ways you can do this.

  • You can go back to that very first day when you took your first dollar towards astrology, which is the indication of a professional business, and cast that chart.
  • Or you could decide that you are still working towards it and decide to have a launch party day, as it were and make an election chart for the business.

This launch party will be in the future to signify the official public launch of your astrology business.

Future Astrology Business

Your second option is if you are perhaps still working towards learning more about astrology, and let’s face it, who isn’t? We’re all learning as we go forward, but you may decide that in the next year you want to start an astrology business. Now you can choose a start chart for yourself through electional astrology.

Relaunch and Existing Business

Your third option will be that if you registered your astrology business sometime in the past, that date will be the start chart for your astrology business. So here you’ve got two options really. And, I’m going on a side note now, but bear with me.

Future Choice

Electional astrology is often used for marriage charts. You decide you’re going to get married next spring, and you pick a good day because you want Venus well placed or whatever it is. You decide and you have a marriage chart, and you go forward with that chart. However, if you come to astrology later in life and you’ve already been married for 25 years you could go back to the date from 25 years ago to the time when you said, “I do” and cast that wedding chart and that will be technically the chart for your marriage.

Retaking Vows

Now there is, of course, this modern thing of retaking your vows. This usually happens when marriages have been going a long time or they’ve hit a rocky patch and they’re trying to get back on track. The couple want to remake their vows to each other and reinforce the strength of their love. And then again you can then have a restart chart for that, so you wouldn’t just pick any old day to retake your vows and have a party. Now you’re going to choose carefully and elect a great day for your re-vow party and that would be then the chart moving forward.

So that’s just an example with weddings, but technically you can do with businesses as well.

Business Charts Examples

Not that I’m going into great detail regarding business electional charts here, but I just want to bring forward a pair of high profile business launches and the impact that one planet had on how they fared.

Facebook

Facebook went public with their initial public offering (IPO) at 11:30 AM on the 18th of May 2012 in New York. The launch chart has Venus retrograde. This is not a good position for money. I recall at the time that astrologers were saying that FB had not consulted and astrologer, otherwise they would never have launched on that particular day with Venus retrograde. But they did launch and of course Facebook is a massive company.

However. initial benefit from that launch was quoted as “a disappointment”. On the first day Facebook started at $34.41 and closed at $38.23. I have provided you with a link here to the Wikipedia article about it and how the financials didn’t rise to the expectation.

Twitter (X)

Twitter went public at 9:00 AM, November 7th, 2013, again on the New York Stock Exchange. Twitter’s start chart has Venus directTwitter exceeded expectations financially on the day of their launch. They opened at $26 and closed at $44.90. Even though at the time Twitter was a far smaller company than, Facebook was or is. The simple fact of having Venus direct made all the difference. I’ll also reference here the Wikipedia page discussing how their launch was. Exceeded expectations.

Venus

I’ve already mentioned. One planet. When referencing these two business charts on the habit gone into a deep dive, certainly, I’ll leave that to you. But the point is that when you are creating a business election, you do need to make sure not only that your 10th house is well supported with good planets. You also want to make sure that Venus is direct and not going to be going retrograde in the next 7 days.And additionally, you really want to make sure that the malefic switch are. Mars, Saturn and Pluto in general are not in prominent positions or on the 1st or in the 1st house. Of course, when you are doing elections, you can’t always have everything but. Venus is one of those planets that’s very important because it rules love and money. So it’s important for wedding elections and it’s important for business elections. Just something to keep in mind.

Decision Time

Option 1:

If you are happy with your existing company chart because your business was registered on a particular day in the past, go with that.

Option 2:

If you feel you want to do some rebranding or relaunch your business or go down a different route with what you’re doing, you could then have a restart chart.

Examples

My Starzology website was launched way back in 2003. When I launched my podcast, I had an election chart for that venture. And when I launched this Starzlife newsletter I had an election chart for this venture. It really, it is up to you.

Midheaven

In your business chart you will be looking to the Midheaven, and 10th house of the chart. Ideally you would choose your branding colours that reflect and support this business from:

  • The sign on the Midheaven.
  • Any 10th house planets.
  • Any planetary aspects to the Midheaven degree.

Sign Colors

Each of the zodiac signs pertains to certain colours and it all hangs off the colour wheel.

Primary Colours

In the colour spectrum, there are three primary colours, red, yellow and blue and astrologically these relate to the fire signs. Aries is red, Leo is yellow and Sagittarius is blue.

Secondary Colours

The three air signs, which are midway between each of the fire signs, are Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. They take the secondary colours which are orange, green and violet.

Tertiary Colours

In between each active sign there is a passive sign, either earth or water. They will take the tertiary colours from the colour wheel. Taurus is tangerine, Cancer is apricot, Virgo is chartreuse, or lime green. Scorpio is turquoise, Capricorn is purple, and Pisces is fuchsia or shocking pink.

Planetary Colours

Planet Color

Another way to look at colour choices would be through planets which are prominent. Each planet has its own colour or collection of colours. Note: Here I’m just sharing my ideas with you, other astrologers could assign different colours to the planets. I’m not saying this is the final word on planetary colours it’s just the ones I use.

  • The Sun is yellow and gold.
  • The Moon is white and silver.
  • Mercury is green and paisley.
  • Venus is pink and lacey.
  • Mars is red.
  • Jupiter is royal blue.
  • Saturn is dark purple, grey or black and stripes.
  • Uranus is electric blue or turquoise and zig-zags.
  • Neptune is cyan or see green.
  • Pluto is maroon or dried blood red.
  • And once Chiron came along, I assigned it to taupe.

Planet Color Influence

When considering a business election chart, we’re looking at the Midheaven and the 10th house. After considering the sign on the Midheaven and its associated colours you can explore any planetary colours both as 10thhouse tenants and by Midheaven degree aspect.

Ask Yourself

  • Which planet is the Midheaven ruler and what is its colour?
  • Which planets tenant the 10th house and what are their colours? If the10th house is empty ignore this.
  • Which planets aspect the Midheaven (trines and sextiles are most helpful).

Computer Colours

And if you are getting very particular about your colour choices, do remember there are different ways of determining the names or numbers for different colours in use today.

RGB

On computer screens we use the RGB system which is red, green and blue combinations. The RGB triplets lets you know which combination of red, green and blue to use.

Hex

Hex colours are another way to specify computer colors. They follow a hex triplet notation following a # and have two numeric values each for red, green and blue. Example #970511.

Pantone

Pantone colours are specific colours that can be called for by their name or by their code. These are used in the graphic design, printing and the paint industry. Each year Pantone announces the Color of the Year which is keenly followed by fashionistas and design people.

Self-assessment

Here are some questions that you might like to ask yourself as you start to set up your brand-new astrology business.

  • What business name do you want?
  • Which colors do you want?
  • What type of astrology do you want to practice?
  • Who is your ideal customer?

Your Clients

Clients Starting Their Businesses

If you have clients who want to start or launch a business, and they come to you and say, “Hey, I want to open a widget business next June”. Once you’ve cast their election chart, you could then continue on to advise them on their colour choices for their business so that their selections are aligned astrologically to their business start chart. This extra step will add value to your business astrology consultations.

T-squares

T-squares

Author: Alison Price   –   Published: October 2024

T-Square

Pattern

A T-square is a major aspect pattern found in charts it is formed with three planets, two planets oppose each other and the third planet squares the other two. 

The pattern is in the shape of a “T” in a chart. Many natal charts have T-squares and I believe that between 60% to 80% of charts will have the pattern. Personally, I don’t have one in my chart. And you may find a chart that has one T-square. Additionally, you can find charts with multiple T-squares in them.

Interpretation

In general, when interpreting a T-square, the energy of the two planets in opposition tends to flow towards the focal planet, which is the planet that is getting the two squares from the other planets.

This is like a pointer in a chart, as many of the triangular major aspect patterns are.

Focal Planet

So the sign, and particularly the house, where the focal planet is in a T-square suggests where this energy of the whole T-square will be expressed through the person’s life.

Mode

Typically, T-squares are in one of the three modes, so you would either get a cardinal T-square, a mutable T-square, or a fixed T-square. If all the planets are in the same mode, this is definitely the case. However, if one of the planets is in a different mode and two or in another mode, that is then known as their disassociate T-square and it makes it slightly weaker.

In the example chart I have below for Elton John, this is a fixed T-square because Taurus, Leo and Scorpio are fixed signs.

Important Planets

A T-square will be particularly important if the following planets are included in it:

  • The chart ruler.
  • The Sun.
  • The Moon.

You have to fully analyze all the three planets in their signs and in their houses before you can draw it all together and combine it into the group of three planets which make the T-square. It is unadvisable just to go straight in and it look at a T-square. You do need to have a full understanding of the planet’s complex before this.

Transit.

T-squares are often triggered through transits because there are three planets spread about the chart. Any of those planets could receive a transit from any of the planets at anytime.

For example, the Sun will pass around the chart and it will trigger each of the three planets in a T-square three months after each other as the Sun moves through the quarter of the chart, and not only that, where the Sun goes, Mercury and Venus follow closely behind.

So Mercury and Venus will also be aspecting the T-square and all it means three times a year.

Then you need to consider all of the other planets that may, or may not be, making aspects to the T-square.

T-square Themes

Any T-square, including its planets, their houses, their signs and the focal planet within the T-square will suggest a theme within the chart.

When you have aspects that are all hard, such as squares and oppositions, these are aspects that the person will have been grappling with from day one.

Orbs

The orbs I use for a T-square are 8° for a square and 8° for an opposition.

Square

The square is typically an aspect that shows internal dilemmas within the person, things that they are working with and trying to work through at all times.

Opposition

An opposition aspect shows external dilemmas where the person is dealing with other people, other situations that are not from them. Here they may also bring in projection as well and blaming of the other and all the things that pertain to the opposition aspect. But they are external dilemmas.

The point is that the whole T-square is considered a dilemma for the person whose chart it’s in.

Sequence

Another way of interpreting T-squares is to consider the sequence with which the T-square is triggered.

You do this by deciding which of the three planets is on the earliest degree.

In the example chart I show below for Elton John, there is a T-square between the Moon opposition Chiron, both squaring Pluto. Pluto is the focal planet.

The next step would be to look at the degrees that each of these planets is at. Chiron is at 7°, the Moon is at 10° and Pluto is at 11 degrees.

This tells us the sequence for Elton John’s T-square is Chiron-Moon-Pluto because as the transiting planet comes up towards the T-square, it will first aspect Chiron either by a conjunction, opposition or square.

Next it will then aspect the Moon either by a conjunction, opposition or square, and then it will finally aspect Pluto either by a conjunction, opposition, or square.

The important thing here is that the sequence of how the events unfold in his life will remain the same. This shows a pattern in the natal chart.

So initially you would have a Chiron situation unfolding, which then moves on to a lunar situation that unfolds and followed by the culmination of a Plutonic situation as the final situation.

Ideally if this is your client, you want to be able to try and weave a story relating to how these planets are likely to work because the pattern continues in throughout their life.

Mr. “X”

Above is the chart of a guy we’re calling Mr. “X” and he actually has two of this pattern in his chart, a Jupiter and a Mars T-square. We actually give a full interpretation of this on the podcast episode, so make sure to listen to that.
