Readings from the Almagest of Handreth for 1 Alturiak, 1372
Year of the Wild Magic
The Sun in the First decan of the Eagle
The Sun in this decan indicates a clash of family loyalty with one's own career interests. It also reveals a sense of vocation which relates to personal growth. A conjunction with the Moon will "eclipse" the solar traits of character and emphasize both the positive and negative lunar traits associated with these.

Sun Applying 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.
Full Selûne in the First decan of the Wheel
Selûne stationed here lacks stability, and the decan indicates a high emotional level that tends to be suppressed.
Selûne Applying Square Anadia
This square indicates an emotionally volatile nature - the natives easily become upset and lose their temper. Their tendency to take things too personally leads to emotional outbursts. They are sometimes too independent for their own good. They want to make their own way in life and resent interference. They have domestic problems and disagreements with their parents. All this can have an adverse effect on their professional standing, reputation, and ambitions.
Anadia in the Second decan of the Swan
Anadia here activates the ingenuity of the degrees and decan.
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 Separating Square Glyth
This square can indicate a harsh and austere disposition. The actions of the natives may be continually frustrated, leading to resentment and negative attitudes. There can be a sullen anger in the natives' dispositions. Their ambitions are often blocked, and there can be difficulties in relating to others, especially in partnerships and marriage.
Coliar in the First decan of the Fish
Coliar here is rather dogmatic and the individual may be inclined impose his or her own views on others.
Coliar Separating Oppose Karpri
This opposition indicates confusion and irritation in social relationships, resulting from the natives' incessant talking about trivial matters. Women especially are likely to become so boring that their friends will try to avoid them. Unconscious emotional patterns can distort the natives' ability to think and to communicate clearly and objectively. They take criticism too personally.
Coliar Separating Sextile Glyth
This sextile generally indicates a disciplined mind. The natives are inclined to use prudence and forethought in decision-making, communication, speech, and writing. They make good lecturers, writers, and teachers. Their exactness and discipline extend to the areas of health and hygiene. The natives tend to leave as little as possible to chance. They have a purpose behind every move and thought.
Coliar Separating Oppose H'Catha
This opposition gives rise to a high degree of sensitivity to other people's thoughts and motivations. An unconscious telepathy often leads to deceitful practices that may or may not be malicious. It is as though the natives were trying to outmaneuver their opponents in a subtle telepathic chess game.
A conjunction with the star Tilvadar endorses the "fluid" nature of this planet, which suggests a more impressionable and receptive mind than usually associated with these degrees. Positive aspects to Tilvadar indicate a skilled artisan or ship-wright. Negative aspects encourage the scheming tactics of Coliar.
Retrograde Karpri in the Third decan of the Swan
Karpri is well placed here in terms of relating to others. Its position in the autumnal equinox degrees displays a genuine empathy or identification with suffering, particularly the inhumane treatment of animals.
Karpri Applying Trine Glyth
This trine indicates a sense of order, balance, and proportion in art and music. It is frequently found in the horoscopes of artists; it gives an excellent sense of rhythm and structural relationship in time and space. The aspect is also favorable for architects, designers, mathematicians, and people who work with structures that must be both functional and aesthetic.
Karpri Separating 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 Eagle
Chandos in this decan indicates ambitious objectives prompted by an initial lack of emotional security or material comfort.
Glyth in the First decan of the Wheel
Glyth located in these degrees is both flirtatious and deeply passionate.
Glyth Separating Trine H'Catha
This aspect gives the ability to carry on organizational plans and professional activities behind the scenes. For this reason it favors investigators and workers on secret projects, especially government projects. Military strategists, generals, and occult investigators are also favored. The natives are skillful at ferreting out secrets and solving mysteries. Few clues, no matter how subtle, will escape their notice.
Garden in the Third decan of the Spear
Garden here endorses the generous and ambitious nature and adds a sense of drama with flamboyant clothes and behavior.
Retrograde H'Catha in the Third decan of the Swan
H'Catha here is considerate and accommodating. It is a powerful influence in the autumnal equinox degrees and manifests strong humanitarian principles which will not be compromised.
