Sandysand,

I just bought a new computer and I need to reconnect all my astrology programs in the coming week. So give me some time. I will send you a PM for the birth information on the chart you posted.

To answer your question on the transiting AS/7, you can also use the MC/4, the midpoint A/M, POF, POS and intermediate House cusps.... and the midpoints Planets/AS and Planets/MC (Planets here means any transiting planet sending a hard aspect to your natal planets. The best being Jupiter)

In the meantime, I have an exercice for you to see how your Grand Trine to your 2nd House behaves.

Exercice:
1) Watch the diurnal 2nd House every day for a month and pay attention to the aspects it makes to natal and transiting planets. (Major aspects + semi-square and sesqui-quadrate)
2) Check days when the diurnal AS aspects your natal AS, VE and NE.
3) Of special importance are days when 2 transiting planets or more are making an aspect to your 2nd House 6 star points. I am also looking at the 8 Trans-neptunian planets but I haven't reached a conclusion yet. Zeus and Apollon seem to be sensitive points.

No need to gamble, just note what is happening money-wise in your life.

Will get back to you on the T-square in the chart you posted.

Ouranos

Ouranos,

Good luck setting up your PC!

For the chart that I posted, no need to rush or anything. I am working on it simultaneously as I am working on mine.

For the exercises - instructions written down, I'll report results at the end of February.

Thank you,
Sandy

3) Of special importance are days when 2 transiting planets are making an aspect to your 2nd House 6 star points.

I want to discuss brieftly this point and the different scenarios, using transiting MA

1) transiting MA conjunct, sextile or trine your natal 2nd House cusp.
Not strong enough

2) transiting MA conjunct, sextile or trine your diurnal 2nd House cusp.
Not strong enough

In both cases, if you find a third planet (natal or transiting) making a soft aspect to MA during the day, that is a green signal and it gives you a time frame for when to play with the first scenario the best.

Example: This week, my diurnal AS had my natal VE on the cusp of the 7th, ruling my diurnal 8th and sextiling Zeus in Libra in diurnal 8th... within 3' orb of my natal VE.
3 days in a row when my natal VE crossed the 7th House, I won substantial amounts with the best one on the day the diurnal AS was exact to natal VE (4 digits jackpot).
This confirms 2 things here:
First, an opposition resolved by a trine or a sextile is positive. And the importance of Angularity
Second, an aspect close to exact is very strong.

Ouranos,

Thank you for explaining that further.

Coincidentally, there is a sextile to my d2 from trMA today but there isn't a third planet to activate that sextile with a soft aspect at the moment. There was trMO today but I didn't react on time to test it.

I had a d2 trine nSA and dMC. I placed a little bet when trMC was conjunct d2 just as a test - I won 3 euros. I would assume that the amount won is not much due to Saturn's involvement. Similar experience I had with my mom's diurnal. She had a trSA trine dASC and she won a small amount - 5 euros.

I would assume that the amount won is not much due to Saturn's involvement.

Generally speaking yes.
Time, space and ressources can be an issue with Saturn. Well aspected by several planets, it will not hurt. But currently, it is semi-square Pluto.
If you find a diurnal with a soft aspect to SA, not so good because of the semi-square to PL prevailing.
Always check the aspects to the planets.
It is like - Ok today I am connected to Saturn
Now, what are the aspects to Saturn and how do they
relate to my chart. And most of the time, you will look at planetary configurations. Several planets connected together and it is the synergy of these planets that create a lucky trend.

Here are some potential issues
- Lack of money
- Lack of time
- Other responsibilities to attend to
- You face limited space to join
- Missed timing like you had today.
- Small gains

Always good to keep an eye on the transiting SA/MC and SA/AS over a lucky combination as it can deny.

The goal, if you follow the diurnals and the daily transits, is that you will get a sense of how your chart reacts and you will get more experienced.
This can be applied to other areas of your life.
Focus on aspects by transit in the sky and to your natal first, then look at the connection to natal and diurnal next.

Example : If the Moon makes a trine to Mercury and this Mercury is on your diurnal or natal 3rd, would you expect a communication on that day?

Ouranos,

That makes a lot of sense!

I have to admit that I am actually swamped with all the theory and possibilities. I wish to test them but, unfortunately, trMA is currently applying an opposition to my nSA - hasty decisions will just end up in disappointment, but the fact that I must be careful brings me frustration! I hope the trine and sextile from trSA in Pisces to these two brings some clearer understanding to all of this.

These days... I cannot tell you how many times I've missed an aspect because I was distracted.

It is easy to lose track of what is going on at the moment.
I am currently keeping an eye on:

1. My diurnal ASC is currently changing to Virgo; Virgo ASC will bring me, among other things, two trines to UR (natal and transit), a trine to nNE, and a conjunction to nVE. These are the ones I am looking out for. When the time comes, I will test them out as per your guidance.
3. trJU is going direct and will apply a square to my nVE till about 18th of February. I am currently testing JU/AS, JU/MC, VE/MC, VE/NE (since it is conjunct n8), and VE/JU. Coincidentally, trUR is currently squaring my nVE/JU midpoint.

I won jackpots in these cases:
trASC = nVE/MC
trASC = nVE/NE and trJU was conjunct the 8th in the event chart
trASC = VE/NE, conjunct n8, and receiving a sextile from nVE and nNE
trASC = nMA/JU and receiving a square from trMO + receiving an opp from nUR
trMC = nVE/JU and receiving a square from trUR

Most tedious part is having to calculate when transit A/M, planet/ASC and planet/MC are going to touch a specific point.

Aaaand ... I missed two points I wanted to test while I was writing this post.

trJU is going direct and will apply a square to my nVE till about 18th of February

Handling a square from tJU can be interesting.
Review the last 4 posts on my thread Winning with diurnals and midpoints.
Focus on the JU/MC and JU/AS midpoints (45Wheel) to
1) transiting JU and midpoints
2) natal VE and midpoints
3) any power areas on the wheel usually indicated by planets conjunctions.
4) Check Angularity

Ouranos,

Right, I am going through that thread - that's where I saw the post on Jupiter hard aspects!

Accurate depiction of me these days going through the case study thread and multiple tabs with charts:



Thank you once more - you are awesome!

LOL

Will get back to you later this week
Ouranos

Sandysand,

Can you send me in a Private message the coordinates of the chart you posted with the T-Square?

Thank you,
Ouranos

I've attached below one that is very interesting to me. It contains a grand cross between 2nd, 5th, 8th and 11th house cusps with Sun (ruler of the 2nd), Pluto (ruler of the 5th), POS and Mars (ruler of the 10th) with a little bit of a bigger orb (2°) in conjunction with these cusps. I was thinking on how to "soften" that grand cross.

Sandysand,

I am reposting the chart in your earlier post here.

To answer your question above, you can still work with the conjunction, opposition, sextiles and trines to the 2nd House cusp. But I would focus also on the planets (Sun, Mars and Pluto) and the midpoints (SU/MA, SU/PL, MA/PL, MO/JU).
The T-Square SU-MA-PL is a very powerful combination but let me explain how I see it here.

A square aspect is generally considered challenging or tense, as it creates a dynamic of internal pressure and struggle, but it carries the potential for overcoming obstacles and success. The aspect encourage action and problem-solving, as ignoring them is usually not an option. And the T-square can be pretty intense.

I have seen someone with a SU-PL square being very lucky but the nature of the square made him look like a different person when he was starting to gamble. And the main problem is to learn when to stop when the square gets activated.

Mars, being the planet of energy and action, can influence adrenaline and testosterone. It governs drive, action and physical vitality, all of which are linked to certain hormone production in the body. So that's why this person needs to put limits to protect himself.
He is probably involved into multiple activities to earn money or what he is doing might involve a multitude of transactions.

So the square family can be a blessing and a curse.
You have heard the expression to fight the fire with the fire. This is what you need to do. Focus on the squares.

If you watch the planets and the midpoints tied to his 2nd House and if you find a Jupiter midpoint in hard aspect to another planet and being within 5' of orb, that is a strong green signal. Should you find the diurnal AS or 2nd House cusp in aspect to this position, the possibility of hitting a jackpot is very high. So when you look at the diurnal, pay special attention to the points I have highlighted in brown and light blue. All aspects. And also transiting planets aspecting these points. Try to get 2 planets making a hard aspect to any of these points at the same time.

Best to you,
Ouranos

Here is an example of combining diurnals, aspects and midpoints.

1) The Moon is travelling in sextile to my natal 2nd House cusp (diurnal 8th) and... it is making a trine to transiting Mars and an opposition to Uranus and Part of Spirit.
This is a signal to investigate further the midpoints.

2) My natal MO=VE/JU is right on the cusp of the diurnal 8th sextiling Fortuna.
3) And it is being squared by the conjunction SU/PL with the diurnal A/M right there.
A very powerful combination!

Results: 14 wins including 3 jackpots.

Post edit: I forgot to mention that transiting MA was conjunct natal UR and transiting UR conjunct my natal MC.
Adding up in the scenario of my 2nd House. The more contacts the better.

Tip: Every analysis should start by looking at the daily transits and how they are tied to our natal and diurnal.
Sophia Mason has several examples of what she calls 'modified T-square' for winning in sports games. What I retain from that configuration is that you get at least 3 planets connected together. That's a basic principle for winning.
That's why midpoints are so interesting to look at!
