Male Circumcision (for Patricia and all)

[Guest guest]

Namaste Patricia,

 

Come to think of it, my chart does show the circumsion in that the

lord of the 7th and 8th (private parts), Saturn, is aspected by a

sharp and cutting planet, Mars. However, Saturn is aspected by

Jupiter from the 9th house, showing that the operation was done as

part of the rite of passage in my culture, as well as others in the

world.

 

Regards,

 

John R.
