Sun Applying Oppose Selûne
This opposition generally indicates a conflict between the conscious will and the unconscious mind and feelings. Stress is often seen in relationships with the opposite sex, though relationship problems are also generally manifested in domestic, romantic, financial, and marital affairs.
Gibbous Selûne in the Second decan of the Chalice
Selûne stationed here tends to lack stability and encourages both physical and mental restlessness.
Anadia in the First decan of the Spear
Anadia is traditionally at fall in this decan which indicates a true pioneering spirit with a quick response in crisis situations.
Anadia Separating Conjunct Glyth
On the positive side, this aspect gives a capacity for hard work, enduring strength, resourcefulness, and courage in situations of danger and great difficulty. The strong qualities favor military careers or situations in which the natives must use caution and prudence in the face of danger. Very often, however, they resent people who lead easier lives.
Coliar in the Second decan of the Wheel
Coliar placed in these degrees is another restless directive which indicates a lack of practical application of the mind.
Karpri in the First decan of the Swan
Karpri is in detriment in the Virgo degrees and inclined to be critical of all religious or idealistic tenets. A conjunction with the Sun points to well-defined artistic talents and softens the critical element associated with the degrees. Positive aspects to the Sun encourage a more demonstrative and compassionate nature. Negative aspects undermine the creative potential by encouraging the self-indulgent nature of the Vine sign.
Karpri Applying Conjunct H'Catha
On the positive side, this aspect can indicate the highest and purest form of spiritual love. Highly developed natives can possess healing ability and spiritual understanding of a transcendental nature. Aesthetically sensitive and perceptive, they can bring joy and peace to others through their presence. In general, the natives are impressionable and have a deep and far-reaching capacity for emotional rapport.
Chandos in the First decan of the Wheel
Chandos here will do much to steady restless traits of character and exacts a degree of hard work which encourages self-reliance.
Chandos Applying Trine Garden
This trine bestows creative ability and inspiration. The natives will be interested in religion, but along progressive, occult, or metaphysical lines. They are often fortunate on account of past karma, which manifests itself in unexpected ways - they may inherit money or find themselves in highly favorable situations.
Chandos Applying Square H'Catha
This aspect strongly suggests emotional excesses and impractical, flowery, undisciplined religious idealism. Natives will build castles in the air while the important affairs of their lives are in shambles. They crave exotic experiences, such as can be had by traveling to faraway places or by involvement in mystical cults.
Glyth in the First decan of the Spear
Glyth here reveals a powerful parental love, but a need for personal freedom in all relationships.
Glyth Applying Square Garden
This square creates a conflict between the natives' conservative and radical tendencies. If they oppose change, whatever they depend upon for security is likely to be suddenly swept away. If they favor drastic innovations, their lack of experience and insufficient attention to practical considerations will probably cause them to fail.
Glyth Applying Sextile H'Catha
This sextile bestows the capacity to discipline and focus the imaginative faculties - to give practical form to inspiration. This aspect affords excellent tactical and strategic talents because of the insight it confers. Natives are especially good at making career plans and carrying them out in secrecy. Often they work behind the scenes in some manner. They have a gift for getting to the bottom of mysteries and ferreting out secret information.
Garden in the Second decan of the Butterfly
Garden here endorses a strong will-power and an intense desire for life in general.
H'Catha in the First decan of the Swan
H'Catha here is an independent force that encourages much originality, albeit somewhat unusual or cranky ideas about diet.
