Crescent Selûne in the First decan of the Dragon
If Selûne is stationed here the tendency for unconventional behavior is underlined. There is, however, a general friendliness and natural courtesy shown to others.
Selûne Applying Square Glyth
This square generates a condition of melancholia and unhappiness. The natives have a bleak view of life and lack emotional vitality. Very often they have a mother complex or some other inhibition stemming from early childhood experiences: they tend to be emotional prisoners of the past.
Selûne Separating Sextile H'Catha
This sextile is definitely an aspect of psychic potentialities. Often intuition plays a role in creating opportunity for financial and domestic progress. These mystic inclinations lead the natives to join fraternities and organizations of an occult nature. The aspect expands the imagination into the realms of the transcendental. Unconscious promptings play a part in the natives' decision-making. Unconscious storing of knowledge from the distant past enables them to bring unusual information to light.
Anadia in the Third decan of the Eagle
Anadia here enjoys the power of positive direction, but must beware of exhaustive ambitions.
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.
A conjunction with the star Belleasha indicates a champion of unpopular causes, who will not be able to discriminate between right or wrong. Positive aspects to Belleasha show a struggle in overcoming physical desires. Negative aspects encourage compulsive actions which end in scandals or public disgrace.
Coliar in the First decan of the Eagle
Coliar in these degrees indicates a rational mind, with a serious attitude generally.
Coliar Applying Sextile Garden
This sextile indicates a quick, intuitive, inventive mind, together with a good memory. While it gives astrological and occult interests and abilities, it may also produce scientific leanings. The natives always think for themselves and are very independent.
Karpri in the Third decan of the Trident
Any Karprian aspects to the Sun stationed here will help to clarify the creative potentiality of the Trident sign.
Karpri Applying Sextile Glyth
This sextile figures prominently in the horoscopes of artists who have exceptional skill. Saturn gives concrete expression to the Venusian aesthetic tendencies. The natives are loyal to their friends and loved ones and serious and constant in the expression of their emotions. The aspect is favorable for an enduring marriage. There is the capacity to sacrifice personal happiness for the sake of duty or the happiness of others.
Karpri Separating Square H'Catha
This square causes emotional problems connected with the unconscious mind and the imagination. Since emotional and sexual problems may arise out of past experience that lies deep in the unconscious, the aspect can have a karmic connotation.
Chandos in the First decan of the Serpent
Chandos is a cautious influence generally, but if placed here it inhibits the speech and therefore frustrates personal ambitions.
Retrograde Glyth in the Third decan of the Wheel
Glyth here is sympathetic and caring.
Garden in the Second decan of the Trident
Garden is well placed here and endorses the finer aspects of character associated with the Trident sign.
Garden Separating Square H'Catha
This square is indicative of a generation whose karma it is to live in a time of exceptional social turmoil. The natives are prone to emotional and psychic confusion. The natives can be somewhat high-strung, willful, and nervous. They are inclined to have set ideas and opinions.
H'Catha in the First decan of the Raven
H'Catha here is both rebellious and highly controversial.
"Even the gods watch the stars." Turmish Astrologer's saying.
