That database sure has its problems! But I'm not giving up yet. I just have

to find a better way to use it. But it's true...if you call up, say, all

the charts with Sun in Aries, you will get NOTHING that supports any Aries

doctrine in either zodiac.

Hmmmm....I thought I answered that.

 

I would expect an exalted Moon conjunct Venus (which is the dispositor of

the Moon) in its domocile to be excellent for health. But if the Moon is in

Aries and Mars is in Cancer, then I'd expect problems with mind or physical

health or longevity because the Moon is in mutual reception with an angular

Mars in its fall. (And this Mars is conjunct Uranus...I found this

Mars-Uranus-Moon interchange in many of the Parkinson's charts.)

 

In your sidereal, this conjunciton is in Aries, which is

>not a good place for Venus or Moon, right?

 

It's neutral, neither good nor bad in itself. It's the mutual reception

that points to the health problem in Michael's chart. Sidereal astrology,

at least the Indian version, doesn't use detriments as they would conflict

with the doctrine of 100 percent strength for an exalted planet (by degree)

gradually falling away to the exact opposition which has zero strength (not

considering other factors). Zero strength probably means no strength to do

good.

 

Re: psychology, the Moon conjunct Venus is just that: Venus influence on

the Moon. I don't think the sign matters at all. It might matter if Venus

were in Virgo. I'll have to check that one out.

 

We've got an interesting debate going here, Ed. You believe there is

essentially no zodiac, and I'm dedicated to somehow showing that there IS a

zodiac and that it works. So far you have most of the cards.

 

I've been thinking: How WOULD a person convince someone that the zodiac has

real significance? Not as easy as it might seem.

 

Cheers!
