Got it. I think that about the word 'expression' we should give the last word to the aspects as well. Forum: Traditional (& Ancient) Techniques Topic: Esssential vs Accidental Dignity Replies: 20 Views: 17073 Mon Apr 27, 2015 2:28 pm Jump to post
James, the guy doesn't easily leave open the intensity of feeling, and this can be even because of the Saturn conjunct MC, and the more hidden and powerful Plutonic influx. To tell he is deceptive: I don't know. Seems more as he has some defensive mask put on, perhaps intended to not leave others to...

I was hoping for a more theoretical discussion on this without going straight into another chart analysis. I dont know why you felt this chart was that relevant to this discussion James. But heh ho! Maybe I will open my own thread on the philosophy thread. Mark To speak more theoretical discussions...

Michael, I think there are good reasons for the affinity of Uranus with Capricorn (because to be a earth sign, it is for me a quite bizzarre one, even if I can't precisely say why apart from an Uranus affinity). But I would avoid the rigid hierarchy of sign-rankings for the three trans-saturnians, b... Forum: Philosophy & Science Topic: Is Uranus Associated with Aries?

Mark, I believe that just the expression of the aspects can say how much harmonic and dissonant is that ranking of planets. And I say harmonic and dissonant: not the same of tell "good and bad", because there should be circumstances and the living of the person to say that. So I personally...

Esssential vs Accidental Dignity I open a topic to speak about the essential-accidental dignities. They sound very important to me either, and I think they should be considered together, and not something separate.

You are right, let's talk about the oriental-occidental. I will open another topic for this thing. Speaking of orientality and occidentality, I read that ancient authors say even: <Mars> <When> So you know, the astrologers tell us that even the implicit quality of the planet is modified by the occid...

Here in Italy, we put too much emphasis about the so-called accidental dignity, so much that we say that a planet conjunct to an angle (especially ascendant and medium coeli) is absolutely doubtless the dominant. But is it dominant a principle only because it is more in sight and attracts more atten...
