Dominant Planetary theme in chart [was Awkward Combination]

[Guest guest]

Actually, Shripal's post in a way raises the question that has been

addressed by different serious astrologers in different ways:

namely, which is the dominant planet in a chart? Is there a planet

that essentially holds an important key to the karmic task behind

the chart/nativity?

 

Let us explore that through discussion and comments and dare I utter

that irritating word again -- examples!
