If the moon as co-significator is at 1 degree Scorpio, and the other significator, the sun, is at 26 degrees Scorpio, is this an applying conjunction, or would traditionalists consider that they must be within orb? Thanks.

Hi Moondance7,

I think this wouldn't count as there are other planets that get in the way before the moon could reach the sun. It might count as an 'eventually' sort of answer. In any case this wouldn't be considered auspicious as the moon is in fall and applies by combustion to the Sun; a New Moon being NOT a good aspect. The moon is in Via Combusta anyhow so it's a not very good answer however you work it!

Thanks, Piglet. I guess I was thinking of the moon as an exceptional "translator" of energy and wasn't looking at all the other points. I ahve learned also that anytime the moon conjuncts the sun, a severe weakening of the energy occurs, but I guess if you don't ask, you don't learn. Thanks again.
