Hi Sari,

 

I've given some thought to this last part lf your January 26 post. Your

results are very interesting, and I've been working on further research

which I'll discuss in time. In the past I've found sidereal extremes with

exalted planets as you found in your research. I've also found that planets

in houses seem more important than planets in signs. So, for example,

Jupiter is strong in the 4th (exalted in Cancer) no matter what sign it's

in. I hope we can take up this discussion a little later. Currenly I'm

looking at exalted planets in specific houses for specific individuals.

 

Possibly a house is a stand-in for a sign, which may have been partly

behind the Hellenistic doctrine of 'one house equals one sign.'

 

The first step is to have a theory of the ways that exalted and domicile

planets might express themselves. I remember the good/bad project on the

FoA forum. Moses commented that if Mars was in sidereal Aries, he grouped

that chart with the good charts, but as it turned out, Mars in Aries turned

up often for the bad (criminal) charts. We may have to take each planet

individually to reach further conclusions.
