Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 Well, I was in for a surprise here. I thought there would be a whole bunch of charts with the Asc/Moon/Venus in Ar/Ta/Ge in AstroDatabase, but there were only a handful of charts in each category and when I narrowed the criteria to the Asc/Mo/Ve being within 15 degrees of each other (to try to keep them all in the vacinity of the first house), so few charts remained that they're only anecdotal. So make of them what you will! I'll have to find another way of trying to isolate the supposed influence of signs of the zodiac. Here and there I added a comment in brackets . I've used the Lahiri ayanamsa (the only sidereal choice in ADB), which gives planetary positions of 53 minutes greater than Fagan-Bradley. Terese --------------------- ASC MOON VENUS IN SIDEREAL ARIES: Billy Crystal: American actor and comedian, gifted mimic and major league comic. Asc 10.3 Moon 12.2 Venus 14 (all Trop Taurus) ---------- Col. G. Honasan: Filopine rebel and former government aide; the leader of rebel troops who attacked the presidential palace in Manila...during the attempted coup he failed and was captured; Released and became a wanted fugitive. He eventually signed a cease fire agreement that paved the way for peace. Asc 8.5 Moon 5.6 Venus 13 (6 57) [Venus people don't lead rebellions. But Venus being only 8 degrees from the Moon probably helped with the cease fire agreement.] ---------- Pilot 7941: Pilot with instrument and commercial ratings. Aries 23.2 Moon 9 Venus 10 (7 06 All Trop TA) [The interesting thing about this Pilot's ascendant degree is that George Lucas...(Star Wars)...has his ascendant at 24 08 Aries and a young man I know who was an absolute Star Wars nut has an ascendant of 24 27 Aries. A few hundred cases of similarities in close ascendant degrees and we have the beginning of a case for degree meanings.] ------ ASC MOON VENUS IN SIDEREAL TAURUS: Robert Schuman: Asc 13.9 Moon 6.8 Venus 6.4 (7 50; Moon and Venus are in T TA) French conservative parliamentarian; prime minister and foreign minister [Exalted Moon and Venus in its own sign give status; A foreign minister must have diplomatic skills...Venus.] Scott Holden: Asc 3.9 Moon 3.0 Venus 10.7 (6 59; Asc and Moon are in T TA) American noted family; Son of William Holden and Brenda Marshall [No real description of anything here except for famous parents.] Czarina Alexandra: Asc 19.4 Moon 23.5 Venus 12.6 (8 07 Moon is in T TA) This famous lady was the one who consulted the evil Rasputin. Had 4 daughters and a hemophelic son. She and her family were killed by a gun squad. Mars is at 18.6 TA, right on the ascendant. [We'd never figure out anything from these Taurus charts. Too much overlap of the T and S zodiacs.] - ASC MOON VENUS IN SIDEREAL GEMINI: Jack Kramer: Asc 6.4 Moon 11.2 Venus 2.6 (7 20 Asc is T GE) American Tennis Champion and tennis promoter [Good case for Gemini ruling the hands and arms.] ---------- Chiropractor 8617: Asc 19.8 Moon 11.7 Venus 20.2 (7 04 all T CN) [Chiropractors work with their hands--Gemini.] ---------- Educator 11655: Asc 17.1 Moon 12.7 Venus 24.2 (7 18 all T CN) High school science teacher [Good case for a Mercury ruled sign.] [These Gemini cases are more helpful than the Taurus ones. Only one point out of 9 in Tropoical Gemini.] Astrology in the west deals mainly with personality, but most of the biographies in ADB emphasize events rather than psychology. So if we want to investigate sign meanings, we have to go with external events and characteristics. Psychology is mostly the planets anyway. Gee...even a little research is hard work. It's much easier to spout off about our preferences or beliefs!! Terese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
