Sun Separating Square Anadia
Natives with this aspect tend to be their own worst enemies because of their overly vigorous, impulsive behavior. Obstacles to their self-expression in action generate frustration and anger, which in turn cause them to try to achieve their desires by force. This tendency arouses resentment in others, who consider them brash and egotistical.
Sun Applying Oppose Chandos
This opposition indicates a situation in which the natives are much too optimistic and overexpansive in relating to other people. They promise more than they can deliver, thus damaging their reputations. Sometimes they annoy others by trying to proselytize their religious and philosophic doctrines. Arrogance or pomposity may be exhibited.
Sun Applying Trine Glyth
This trine indicates an honest, practical, circumspect, and conservative disposition. The natives do not waste energy or resources; everything is geared toward a useful and practical objective. Good organizational ability and powers of concentration go hand in hand with this aspect. The natives exercise a high degree of discipline and generally fulfill their ambitions through hard work.
Crescent Selûne in the Third decan of the Eagle
If Selûne is stationed here it increases a tendency to worry, but denotes a cautious and shrewd nature which endorses an astute business sense. Generally speaking, however, the Selûne is not well placed by degree or decan; therefore positive lunar aspects to the Sun or Coliar are more constructive and helpful.
Selûne Applying Oppose Garden
This opposition can indicate emotional perverseness and instability. There are frequent, unexpected changes in mood and attitude, which are confusing to others. Undependability and unpredictability may so exasperate family and friends that they will separate from the natives or avoid them as much as possible. There can also be nervous tension which sometimes is manifested as irritability.
Anadia in the Second decan of the Stone
Anadia is not well placed in this decan as it doesn't suit Anadia's impetuous nature and, while denoting a possible strength of character, require positive aspects in order to direct it constructively.
Anadia Applying Square Chandos
This can be one of the most destructive aspects because the natives are likely to use collective power and even social sanction for self-aggrandizement and gratification of the passions. This square is likely to occur in the horoscope of people who glorify war.
Anadia Applying Trine Garden
This tine gives originality and resourcefulness in action. The natives possess willpower and a capacity to act decisively. They are able to reject old conditions and concepts in order to bring about new ones. The natives are direct and outspoken and have a superabundance of energy. They are able to use original methods in achieving professional ambitions, and they aspire to leadership in organizations and groups.
Coliar in the First decan of the Butterfly
Coliar, when found here, indicates a good listener and shows impartial attitudes in general.
Coliar Separating Sextile Chandos
This sextile is favorable for all intellectual pursuits, especially those dealing with philosophy, religion, higher education, and law. The intuitive mind is well developed; the person is at home with abstract ideas. Natives enjoy study and therefore generally do well in school.
Karpri in the Second decan of the Wheel
Karpri here is both uplifting and questioning. A conjunction with Chandos indicates involvement with charitable groups or animal welfare lobbies. Positive aspects to Chandos encourage a "helping hand." Negative aspects show a hypersensitive nature which may prove disastrous for financial affairs.
Chandos in the First decan of the Fish
This placement of Chandos reveals powerful characteristics.
Retrograde Glyth in the Third decan of the Serpent
Glyth here emphasizes an artistic talent and a rather extravagant nature regarding clothes and expensive gifts.
Retrograde Garden in the Third decan of the Star
Garden here adds to a natural versatility which encourages the pioneering spirit of Anadia and endorses the cleverness of Coliar.
H'Catha in the Third decan of the Spear
H'Catha here adds a personal style to the powers of leadership, particularly if well aspected to Anadia.
