Chandos in the Third decan of the Raven
Chandos, when located in these degrees, helps stabilize the inconsistency of both the degrees and the decan. While encouraging plain speaking, it also encourages honesty and reliability.
Chandos Applying Conjunct Glyth
This aspect gives a serious outlook on life and an involvement in heavy responsibilities unless other factors in the horoscope contradict it. The natives are conservative and practical.
Chandos Applying Square Garden
This square has impulsive excess as its primary fault. Natives are impractical and idealistic, putting all their energy behind a cause, only to abandon it suddenly. They tend to go overboard and embark on all sorts of ill-defined , grandiose schemes. This aspect does not favor speculation, because some unforeseen turn of events is likely to nullify the expense and effort. Many people have lost fortunes under its influence.
Glyth in the Third decan of the Raven
Glyth here reverts to being highly flirtatious and it underscores the need for personal freedom associated with the Raven sign.
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.
Garden in the Second decan of the Swan
Garden is restricted here and there is a natural skepticism operating which requires some constructive planetary aspects in order to counteract a narrowing of attitudes.
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.
