i agree with cor scorpii here.. getting beyond cookie cutter astro is the trick... a malefic out of sect in an angle is always considered a negative.. i am not convinced of this myself, but according to firmicus i could have made a good and cruel pirate with moon on the ascendant and saturn in conj...

Re: Lily and authority

Good day It is very important to approach Lilly, and all the old authorities, with a good deal of scepticism. It's common to regard them as if they were writing textbooks in the modern understanding of the word. But they were not. There were many reasons for these people writing, and the desire to ...
