Common “translation” of Saturn positions (sign and house) is hardships and obstacles in the area of life where Saturn is present. What is usually missing from the discussion is Saturn’s way of putting the blame on yourself and have tones of guilt regarding the issue it covers on your life. You tend to blame yourself for all failures hardships and issues regarding the house and sign its in, to a point you might believe this issue is causing you problems and not vice verse. actually you are tend to be so strict, closed minded and full of self doubt regarding Saturn’s area of control in your life that you might believe it is a karmic cycle.
When analyzing a chart, take a close look on relationships between personal and interpersonal AKA generational planets. all relationships between personal aspects of the chart (Sun, AC, atc) and other planets might show you determining relationships in one’s life. Here for example Sun and Mercury are in conjunction and opposite Scorpio Pluto and AC. the energy of the sun is ‘trapped’ between 2 masculine planets representing masculine energies in chart’s owner life.
I have a client with Cancer moon and prominent Saturn on the 5th house of romance, creativity and fun.
They are into older partners because both Saturn in 5th with its elderly orientation and Moon in Cancer with its dependency and co-dependency tendencies aims at the same idea, having a partner to rely on.
someone you can trust.
with Sun in the 7th house of relationships they ARE the perfect partner or at least very oriented to their partner.
It all came up because the focus of my consultant was their romantic relationship. They came to me to try and solve some issues.
another opportunity to practice reading natal charts came yesterday when a friend asked me to tip them astrologically about a new person they are dating with. after having the date’s exact time, place and date of birth I analyzed the chart in less then 2 minutes including calculations and texted back a list of facts about the person that were obvious from the chart. 2 minutes later I received a text back saying the message was delivered and the receiver replied with אמאלה meaning omg how scary the accuracy of the reading was.
Astrology reading is very much like analyzing back a mixture of colors.
You get to see the full person but the chart shows you what they are made of, just like when you know that mint green is made of this percentage of ultramarine blue, that percentage of yellow lemon and some white. You look at the chart as 12 different pre-defied patterns that organizes the personality, the tendencies, atc.
only after learning and analyzing these things you can look at transits – the current movement of the different planets – and see how it affects the chart.
Your personal chart drawn and fully analyzed! Reading is given either in writing or vocally via phone or zoom. Further questions all included in price. Special packages for intense advising sessions in times of crisis or crossroads.
Please make sure you have the following details: exact time, date and place of birth.

After you have learned to read charts you might be interested in knowing how to read current transits.
Transits are the route of the planets, as seen from earth, on a given day, put along your natal chart.
Here we see transiting planets in green while natal ones are in black.
For example, Pluto was entering Aquarius yesterday (January 20, 2024) and everyone with sun, moon or AC on 0 degrees Aquarius are feeling this transition of Pluto the most.
Transits affect everyone, but in different levels according to the position of the natal planets and houses in signs. For example, yesterday’s Pluto transit into Aquarius affects everyone – depending on the exact point or points Pluto meets on their natal chart. for example, although I have zero points, locations or planets on 0 degrees Aquarius, I do have Pluto right now transiting my 11th house and its transition into Aquarius is going to affect the house its transiting – in my case, the 11th house of friends, communities and groups of influence. This house is being affected and is going to be affected by the nature of Pluto in Aquarius and the traits its getting from entering this airy, fix and advanced sign.
Transits also happen when a planet makes significant angle to a natal planet. Usually the bigger, slower and further transiting planets (Pluto, Uranus, Neptune) set the trend of the influence while the smaller, personal, closer to earth planets (Sun. Moon, Veus, Mercury) show the nuances or are being subjugated to the trend and affect of the bigger planets.
Today I encountered someone who asked online for a quick reading for a chart.
I had no idea who the person was so I just said what seemed to be obvious from the chart – that the person had an Aquarius moon on the 2nd house conjunct with Neptune and that this person is probably making money out of art.
I also saw an exact entrance of Jupiter, ruler of this chart, into the 5th house of romance, hobbies and pets so I mentioned this time is probably a time of self development through these areas of life.
It all seemed to be right since the inquirer told me that they were dating this person and would love to have their relationship chart, named Synastry.
since Synastrys are my favorite Astrology practice, I decided to dedicate a post to this subject or field of Astrology and Astrology reading.
a Synastry involves both sides strongest traits as they come to manifestation in a specific relationship. The way programs draw a synastry is easy – they just put two charts one outside the other in a way that the astrologer can read the poinrs or traits of both people and the way they kind of ‘speak’ with each other.
Often times it is very much of a discussion coming to life for me, when reading a synastry chart. the elements actually speak up with each other by different tones and other vocal nuances that can teach me about the relationship itself.
Off course, a synastry chart reading can not be replaced by, only based on, natal chart reading. meaning you are going to use the appropriate tools on your favorite astrology program or website to see the spread of the synastry. after being spread this way, charts have special angles and points that seem to speak to each other louder then others. Those are points where planets conjunct, opposite, square or sextile to each other.
Generally, the more dominant a planet or point is in one’s chart the more weight it has for the synastry calculation. Although, we can have some people ‘doing’ all kind of things to us – make us feel special, or understood, or even karmatically attached somehow. Usually, those connections will be manifested in the synastry and its attachment points.
In the picture you can see circled in black are the conjunctions, yellow – the sextile and pink – square.
usually all angles are meaningful (imagine them not talking to each other at all) but while sextiles are fluent positive energy and conjunctions are intense energy, squares tend to be more challenging to deal with though not necessarily difficult or fatalistically destructive for a relationship. having Saturn squaring someone’s Venus, sun or moon is better then…. right, not having them communicating at all.
And one last thing about synastries – try, for practice, having your synastry with someone that you like artistically such as a novelist or a painter. usually you will find some interesting connections….
In Astrology we search for significant telltales on a natal chart. The 4th house is where we find clues for father figure, father background and family background. There we an see indication for immigration, education, trauma and so on events and circumstances that were and are involved with the father and the family.
A populated 4th house increases the chances of patriotic activity and an emphasized 11th house shows tribal involvement (community) in one’s life.
for example:
well aspected and strong moon on the 4th house may show a lineage of strong women.
Neptune on the 4th house shows a religious background
Pluto in this position talks about immigration or some other physical transformation that happened to family or father
As for signs of the 4th they don’t tell much but the ruler of 4th house can give us more details about one’s brought up and family background.
Neptune shows what deprives from you in your life. For example, a person with Neptune on the 4th on the natal astrology chart will probably have issues with having no home: being in institutes or in jail. A person with same Neptune but on the 9th may show, depending on other planets involved, a lack of efficient supporting system that allows either publication of the individual’s creative and/or personal materials or going through high education – as well as any other 9th house related topics. Not only Neptune shows what lacks, is missing and deprives from your life, it also tells us in what way it does that or how it happens. Neptune on the 3rd – means of communication are being deprived. May indicate an “on the spectrum” behavior or having little or no siblings, neighbors and everyday attachments.
Neptune on the 2nd – personal assets are being deprived. Popular in twins charts, when they are born into reality of sharing everything they have (from placenta or womb to parents and family, sometimes friends and school)
Neptune on the 1st – Sense of self is being deprived. I believe these people tend to have narcissist relationships as a result, sometimes.
Since the spreading of the covid-19 and its arrival to Israel I have been fascinated by its astrological manifestation and analysis.
Sometimes, as planets teach us, life is just not fair.
Life seems to be unfair whenever we feel as if a lot had been put on achieving something until some breaking point occurred: a point of no return was crossed and there’s no way back.
We are talking here about the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto, an encounter that repeats itself every 34 years or so and was responsible for many world-wide crisis, the Saturnian cruel facing of harsh reality with transformative force by Pluto can cause, depending on the location of other planets, a world wide disasters such as a disease, war, terror wave and so on .
With an addition from Jupiter conjucting too this whole tightness , the events became – well, Jupiternian, Sagittarius like: spreading themselves all over the place, taking whatever reality they are creating / facing and makes a lot of it.
A transformative (Pluto) deep process (think Phenix) meeting the must to face reality with no masks force (his highness, planet Saturn). Only here, in this Covid-19 crisis-like constellation of the sky, Neptune was involved with a series of retrograding in Pisces creating many rumors and some attractive, secret appeal to the planetary show being demonstrating on us here on earth. And now Saturn is retrograding, the world is in between the first and second wave of the corona virus attacks only next one is happening with Saturn being in Aquarius, affecting us on a less physical (Earthy Capricorn) more mental post-institutional (Airy Aquarius) level. Big organizations (NGOs and other shared-interests based communities) will play a hugh role here. But it will only take 2 years or so before Saturn moves on to Pisces.
To heal us all towards the new cycle in Aries.
(Heal us through hardships and reality but still heal and clean)
Thank you for reading
May God save you all

Having an Aquarius Moon, today I was on the phone with an Aquarius sun soul sister who’s experiencing Job-like “symptoms” in her life right now. we were discussing life and kids and astrology while all of a sudden it hit me: the book of Job is a typical Uranus story. so I mentioned it to her and told her (yet again) my old Uranus joke:
Imagine a man walking down the street while a brick falls on his head.
she laughed, of course. So did I. Even though it is not funny, we both appreciate an Uranian sense of humor. But then she said:
This is my life at the moment.
And than it hit me.
The Book of Job is an Uranian story.
What does the book of Job say
The book of Job tells the story of a man who gets more losses than a man can suffer. And each time he thinks he can not suffer anymore, another disaster comes upon him. He losses everything he has.
For some reason, the common Christian adaptation of the story tends to emphasize the wounds or physical suffer poor Job had to suffer, while Judaism basic education in the state of Israel, at least, tends to question both the meaning of “blessing” קללה in the text and the presence of Satan in the story.
Accordiing to Job, just how Uranian can Uranus be?
in one word: A Lot. As much as universes can be universal. Infernal. Eternal. Uranian people tend to be forced somehow, usually by normative (or “normative”) circumstances, to see the bigger picture right from a very early age. Uranian person is not necessarily a person born under the sign of Aquarius or has an Aquarius moon, like my friend and me. Aquarian person is influenced directly from Uranus in a strong way shown on the Personal Natal Chart in any other way.
