Some comments on the 2009 S/R of Washington's Inaugural.

[Guest guest]

I also worry when a S/R emphasizes the dangerous-potential planets at

the angles. This chart falls into the deeply concerned category. Let

me note a few factors that do not seem to fall into the conventional

sidereal practice. But then, I don't fall into a lot of categories.

 

FIRST (in no particular order): Transiting Jupiter (29 Cap.) and

Neptune (1 Aqu.) conjuncts WIC Pluto (27 Cap.). This squares the WIC

MC at 0 Taurus. So, this aspect pattern has a Neptune-MC link.

 

SECOND: the S/R itself has the WIC Neptune in the 10th 11 degrees from

the MC. While Sidereal astrologers love tight, real tight, aspects,

this Neptune-MC link mirrors the Neptune-MC link in the first note.

 

THIRD: Transiting Uranus conjuncts WIC Saturn in the 3rd house area,

but squaring the S/R Asc. This aspect pattern includes a Uranus-Asc.

link.

 

FOURTH: I use a special mid-point structure which utilizes the

Asc.-to-MC arc in degrees and extends it from the MC toward the

Descendant angle. For this chart, that point would be at 9 Cancer. I

call this point the co-descendant; it represents where seemingly fated

or external forces/events intrude into one's life. Here, at this

point, we find the WIC Uranus. Treating this point as if it were an

angle, we find an aspect-pattern of Angle-Uranus-N.Node. This mirrors

the THIRD point's Uranus-Asc. link.

 

FIFTH: The WIC N.Node squares the WIC Ascendant. The aspect pattern in

the FOURTH note has S/R N.Node opposite the Co-Desc. point of my

invention and the WIC Uranus. This is a mirror of the N.Node-Co.

Desc. link.

 

SIXTH: S/R Moon conjuncts S/R Saturn. In my methodology, I can

interchange the nodal axis and Moon in term of interpretation. So, we

have Moon-Saturn here widely square the chart's Asc. and just 11

degrees past the WIC Asc. The WIC Saturn is also square the chart's

Asc. So, we have a linkage between Moon-N.Node-Saturn-Asc. here.

 

SEVENTH: Finally, we have a Mars-Mars at the IC angle.

 

I call these types of linkages " Similarity Patterns. " When very close

aspects to the chart's angles, then these types of " other " aspects

should draw one's attention. What we end up with is a collage of

N.Node, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Asc., and M.C.! Presto,

all of the dangerous planets and the angles are now involved.

 

While this approach does not fit with what I have read about Sidereal

practices, it works quite nicely in the real world where exactitude is

not always so evident.

 

Now, as far as Bert's figures and dates, those also look interesting.

I've got to go check them out. I've also run the 2008 S/R and a PSSR

chart for Jan. 20th, 2009. That also looks interesting. I'll have to

post on that a little later. Dave
