Planets and signs in natal 4th house

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 in houses

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.

Astrology of covid-19 : Saturn conjunct Pluto and Jupiter with retrograding Neptune in Pisces

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)

the Book of Job and Uranus

איוב
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.

 

Chiron – what is wrong with me?

Chiron’s location on Natal Chart indicates an area on your life in which you CONSTANTLY BELIEVE SOMETHING IS WRONG. Usually our believes lead to action (depends on relationships with othe aspects on the chart) and we can find ourselves manifesting Chiron in our life and behaviours.

for example, Chiron on the 7th house indicates you allways doubt your relationships, especially the romantic ones, it doesn’t mean a person who changes and shifts from one partner to another, rather it tells how this person feels about their relationahips. this position of Chiron may come with lots of constent douby about the relationships these people are involved in. lots of questions about, is this relationship good for me? some fear of intimacy or past problems with intimacy.

Chiron on the 8th house indicates the same doubts and questioning and feeling that something is wrong, only in the area of life that relates to intimacy and sex.

these people might grow up feeling something is “wrong” with them sexually. they may come to try different “kinks” or later in life become sexual hermits – people who avoid sex or tend to have very little of it.

Chiron on the 12th house may raise a constant doubt about connection with this worlsd, therefore might be asociated with some level of depression.

other positions of Chiron:

on the 6th – what is wrong with my health (might be a hypochondriac)

on the 5th – what is wrong with my kids, pets – might be a person who worries a lot about their kids and pets

on the 4th house – what’s wrong with my mother or childhood – may indicate a feeling of an unresolved trauma in childhood or some unexplained pain from the mother

on the 3rd – what’s wrong with my brothers and sisters, or whats wrong with my thinking and the way I comunicate myself

on the 2nd – what’s wrong with my talents, my property – a constent doubt regarding what a person can or can not do, achieve, keep.

on the 1st – what’s wrong with who I am – a person who feels that something is wrong with them, their’e choices in life where wrong (from their perspective) and they did many wrong things (from their point of view).

 

The 5 kinds of Astrology charts

Generally, there are five main kinds of Charts an astrologer can draw and analyze. All these charts are personal charts, being drawn with the place, date and time of birth of a specific person. The main five Astrology charts are called: Synastry, Composition, Solar and Lunar Return, Natal Chart and Transits Chart.

An experienced Astrologer would usually combine few charts, or few readings, to answer a specific concern. For example, if a person wants to know about their love life in the next year, the astrologer would usually combine a Natal Chart with transits and Solar Return Chart in the Astrology Reading. In case there is a specific romantic candidate, a Synastry and Composite charts can be drawn, too.

Every Astrologer uses their own way of reading the Astrology personal Chart they are making. Some use Western Astrology methods and tools, some use Vedic Astrology (eastern Indian old method) and some use Kabbalistic Astrology tools and interpretations. The way a specific Astrologer choose to interpret the Astrology Chart doesn’t change the chart itself: same planets, houses and signs are used in all Astrology methods, except in the Chinese astrology.

Here I would like to say a few words about the most popular and powerful kinds of Astrology Charts: the Synastry, the Composition, the Solar Return, the Natal Chart and the Transits Chart.

Note: All charts require exact time, date and place of birth.

Natal Chart

The basic Chart, showing a picture of the stars and signs in the sky on the exact time you were born, as seen from the exact place you were born. This chart is the basis for all other charts and without it Astrology reading can’t be accurate. It tells the persons personal planets positions, shown their dominant houses and tells one’s rising sign, which leads usually to find the Chart’s ruler.

Transits

a Transits Chart, and Transits Reading, tells what is going on in one’s life in current days, while current can mean day-by-day, if chacking the moon transits – or it can show a period of few years, if checking Pluto or Neptune transit on the Natal Chart.

Solar and Lunar Return

the Solar Return Chart is used to predict what is going to happen within the next year from your birthday. Astrology fans draw this chart in the few days before or after their birthday, every year, to see how the year ahead is going to look like. This kind of Chart usually tells, in combination with Transits Chart, if one is going to have new love this year, start a new job, get pregnant, and so on.

Lunar Return Chart is used when there is a dominant Moon in one’s Natal Chart.

Synastry

The Astrology Chart we call Synastry is actually a chart combined from 2 personal Natal Charts. Putting these 2 charts in an overlapping way shows the aspects in which the two people meet: what is it in each of them that makes the other tick, what atracts them to each other, how they affect each other, how they help each other grow or the other way around, how they hold each other back. A synastry chart is usually very accurate when knowing both persons time and place of birth, in addition to the date of birth (year, month and day of the month). A synastry couple chart can function as the relationship road map and it reveals the dynamics, the psychology, the atraction and the friction of the relationship between two people. This Chart is usually drawn for couples to show their romantic relationship but other relationships and partnerships can benefit from such reading: parents and children relationship, sisters and brothers relationships, boss and employee partnerships, atc.

Composition

Composition chart is the Astrology chart that reveals more about the essence of a relationship or partnership. It shows something like what this thing is all about and what are we here for. It is considered a more spiritual astrological drawing of the relationship, while synastry would be the kind of chart showing more of the psychological aspects of the relationship. In some ways, it shows the third entity being created when two people meet and interact: the relationship itself.

In addition to these charts, Astrology uses drawings and transitions to the natal chart in other cases and occasions:

Relocation Chart – when one is moving away from their birth place;

Event Chart – when there is a special event – then, the astrologer can create an event chart and read it in the light of the natal chart;

Horary Chart – when there is an inportant question that needs to be answered by the universe;

sometimes, when a name is being changed.

Cancer, belonging and possesing

As a mother of Cancer baby, I couldn’t ignore the first signs of Cancer personality. At the age of 10 months, he already had his own pet: a puppet he adopted just to visit and nurture everyday. He was happy and excited to see it and you could see the strong sense of duty he felt towards it: there wasn’t a day he forgot or ignored the puppet.

Being born under the sign of Cancer, this instinct of having and taking care of something is not surprising. Cancers define themselves by other creatures they take care of and by who and what they are faithfull to. That is why you would often hear the words “Family” and “Patriotism” in relation to Cancer Sun, Moon or AC people.

In combination with a lot of air in the personal chart, or when Uranus is strong,  people with dominant Cancer will be faithful to ideals and ideas and define themselves by activism, voulantaring for society or a cause. When a lot of fire is presense in the chart, or with dominant Mars, these people will devote themselves to doing and making, or in other words you may see a workoholic here. When earth is strong in natal chart, the main loyalty will be to structures, routines and heritages: here you will see people who care about their and their loved ones routine, nurture the physical self (body) and the imidiate surounding. and with lots of water these people usually become family oriented, full of self motivation and inner drive. These will be focused in whatever other parts of the chart, such as Mars’, Mars ruler’s, planets in 10th house and 10th ruler’s location and aspects indicate.

Chiron and Mercury conjunction opposite moon squaring Saturn; then Moon and Jupiter square Pluto. and Venus? in the middle

So what was going on in the last few days? it feels like there’s chaos all around. last 4-5 days created a unique constellation in the skies, with planets forming challenging angles that had big affect on almost anybody – these few constellations in a raw left their mark on any person who’s got in their natal chart important personal planets between 21 and 28-29 degrees, on those who have dominant Virgo, Pisces, Capricorn, Libra or Sagittarius; and on those who are ruled by either Saturn, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter, Chiron or Pluto. In other words, either you or someone you know well was affected by these astrological transits.

first, on March 12,  Mercury conjuncted Chiron in Pisces, forming both an opposition to the Moon in Virgo. In addition to that, all 3 planets – the conjunction of Chiron and Mercury in Pisces and the Moon in Virgo – created a square to Saturn in Sagittarius. this constellation was basically a mutable signs one, but it involved dominant planets and occurred in the 27th degree, affecting everyone with planets on 25-28 degrees in mutable signs or those who have dominant Moon, Saturn, Mercury or Chiron on their Chart.

The next day, March 13, a Moon – Venus opposition occured. and then a Moon-Jupiter conjunction in Libra, opposing Uranus in Aries and squaring Pluto in Capricorn, took place on March 14, 2017: Both days woken up elements in your personal chart if you were born with strong or personal planets in 10-11 and 19-22 degrees and also if you have a dominant Moon, Venus, Pluto or Jupiter on your natal chart.

So what exactly happened? basically think of a wave. It starts with Moon in Virgo opposing Mercury and Chiron in Pisces, all square Saturn in Sagittarius. The key factor here was moon. When in Virgo, it makes this aspect a cleaning one, an aspect that may involve either job and work issues, health issues – especially eyes, OCD,  fixing body parts and broken machines, healing and meditation issues, people in service positions and more Virgo areas. Such moon having harsh aspects with Saturn, Chiron and Mercury results in structure problems, problems with illness, with authorities and with father figures, and things happen harshly. reality (Mercury and Saturn) is not pleasant to us but absolutely can’t be hidden or smeared. All this energy goes to the next level when the moon goes along into Libra. the Venus opposition adds money issues, relationships and appearance, especially head. The next day, the Uranus opposition and Pluto square to the Moon causes things to end up quickly and abruptly, clean up and be exposed in a cruel ugly way, and begin a process of healing.

So now, few days later, we are here (whoever of us who are still here), traumatised probably, shocked, maybe confused. we need to go on and take care of ourselves, maybe use it to examine our systems of believe and our truth.

Mars transits on 8th and 12th houses

Having Mars transiting your 8th or 12th natal house is not an easy period of time. the 8th and 12th are internal, intimate houses. Having Mars there is like having an elephant in a china store – mars shows its malefic side when entering any of these houses since naturally he is an energetic, external and aggressive planet, while these houses are delicate, receptive and passive.

Usually having Mars in either the 8th or 12th natal house indicates a sensitive time in which some deep fears, resentments, phobias, anxieties and intrigues arise.

The 8th house, being more partnership related, may arise fears and harsh feeling towards other significant people. Issues of trust are likely to harm the image of the other person and to interfere with otherwise smooth relationships. Self doubt is less likely here: the 8th house is about inner drive so with Mars here there might be a feeling of having no energy anymore. feeling drained or exhausted from life is likely with this transit.

The 12th house is more related to general phobias, depression and fears. A person with Mars transiting this house may feel overwhelmed by the world, may have problems communicating their feelings and sharing their fears therefore the result might be feeling isolated and alone. Sleeping problems and addictions may also be a cause for a more lasting depression when transiting Mars is in the natal 12th house.

These two houses are also connected to self strength so having Mars in any of them may result in feeling weak, helpless and hopeless. Mars in these houses tend to take energy instead of giving energy so the usual self strength, emotional ease, confidence in life that a person feels may turn into less favorable feelings.

Since mars transits a natal house for at least 2-3 month, the manifestation of its influence on the 8th or 12th house won’t be short and sharp. Instead, a sensation of isolation or mistrust will start build themselves from the moment Mars touches the cusp of the house.  later on there will be a period of building up all the negative emotions, dealing with them and learning how to handle them, to a point that usually when Mars left the house, the person feels a huge relief, but not sudden and surprising one – rather a feeling that they themselves learned how to rule their fears.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Family Astrology

There are quite few common astrological combinations that are often found within families. They form an astrological structure as well as special relations between the family members. These family astrological combinations usually hold a karmatic meaning.

A ruling planet –

All family member will have, in this constelation, the same planet as a ruling or dominant planet in their charts. For example, an uranian family may have an aquarius dad, a mom with uranus as the ruling planet of her chart, one child with uranus on 1st house and one child with aquarius moon. The meaning is that this family was blessed with an uranian energy – they will be freedom loving people, keen to the new, considered somewhat weird as a family. Maybe they will have an unusual way of living, habits or relationships.

same sign kids –

Two, three or more children with same sun sign. The sunsign could be a telltale for the whole family energy: for example, taurus kids will indicate a country life and a tendency for foods: this family likes going on picnics, make food and eat, and induldge in the good life.

parent’s sun = child’s moon –

In this case, child will “take on” one of the parents’ sun sign and “embrace” it as his own moon sign. This kind of energy usually indicates a special connection between this parent and that child. Even if not shown, they may have a very strong understanding of each other and expresses each of other’s needs (unless other planets are opposing each other)

6-8 relationships –

With this constellation, a child’s sun sign would be placed on the 6th or 8th house from their parents sun sign. For example: a Capricorn parent with a Leo child or with a Gemini child. A Cancer parent with a Saggitarius or Aquarius child. And so on. This one considers to be a karmatic relationship, too: it usually forms a relationship in which both sides learn an important lesson about themselves thanks to the other.
