the tropical traits of the next sign fit perfectly to the previous sidereal

sign, but not always.

 

This is true, Sari, because as you said the tropical descriptions are a

confused mix, and we have 'to pick wheat from husk by hand.'

Still, they are a good place to start if we note traits or acitivites that

seem to correlate with the sidereal ruling and exalted planets. Right away

we can toss many of the psychological traits that don't match, but starting

with a few tropical observations is better than starting in the dark.

Science will always research an area before looking at patterns.

I really hope we can do this on this forum. It's strange how on the

astrological forums only a few of several hundred members will participate

in a discussion.

Here I disagree with you Sari, because the Moon likes a response from other

people. I think to solve this Moon-Ascendant question we'll need to use the

AstroDatabank. It's too involved to discuss without a number of actual

horoscopes. Also the Moon reflects the lunar mansion it's in.

Sari, how about taking a guess as to what Gerald has done professionally?

I'll reply to you privately since this is such a great chart to post on

forums.

 

Can you tell me how you're understanding 'airy' at present? We'll see if it

describes anything about Gerald's life.

Right! Let's continue.
