Each moon phase has two very important characteristics.

Firstly as radix for the mundane events : Indicates what will happen in a place until the next moon phase.

Secondly as transit for natal astrology : Indicates what will happen in the life of a person until the next moon phase.


Mercury is the brother.

Does Mercury symbolize only the brother(s) or does it also apply to sister(s), generally speaking to siblings?

I take Mercury for brother, Venus for sister.

The Dolores O'Riordan death was sad. Apparently she'd gone downhill shortly after her divorce when she lost custody of the children. Interesting voice.

I take Mercury for brother, Venus for sister.

Thanks for your reply.

We are all invited looking out for a bunch of suitable examples that can show that this connection is a stable one, so it can be claimed reliable.

In any case your example of Ronan Keating is a very useful one as it contributes valuable astrological knowledge.
