NEW - April 22, 2008] QUESTION: Can health issues be seen in a natal chart? A progressed chart? What elements should one look for with regard to serious illness? (megalibran) ANSWER: 'Inaminate' is defined as 'lacking the special qualities of living things.' Yes, of all the twelve signs, Libra alone is sybolized by a non-animal. Romans 'invented' Libra and gave it importance as a constellation of the Zodiac. Libra was regarded as the "scales of justice" held by Julius Caesar. The Romans were first to choose 'scales' when the Zodiac was still in its infancy some four thousand years ago, when the Sun passed through this starry constellation at the autumnal equinox on September 21 -- when day and night were of equal length. The Egyptians also saw the constellation as a 'scales.' Some others did not. The constellations were named according to their star patterns, or what important individuals could perceive by 'connecting the dots.' In Libra, no known animal could be "seen" so they settled for a non-animated image familiar to them: the 'balancing' scales used in commerce. Admittedly, perhaps this and certainly some of the other accepted constellation star-pattern 'images' choices are a bit of a stretch for the imagination, but nonetheless are all but universally accepted and used.
ANSWER: It's important to remember that very, very few astrologers are also medical doctors. Therefore, responsible astrologers do not purport to diagnose or "predict" illnesses or diseases, nor to prescribe any type of "treatment." There could be serious legal consequences for the astrologer who is foolish enough to do so. About all an astrologer can do safely is to mention areas of the body which may need special attention as indicated mainly by the sign which is on the cusp (beginning) of the Sixth House of health (plus any others signs which may make up any portion of the Sixth House), aspects to the planet which rules that Sun-Sign, and planets which may be in the Sixth House. Additionally, further clues might be found in the same manner for the First House of "self." The progressed chart will indicate aspects to the planets (mentioned above). If they are "hard" (negative, stressfull -- i.e. squares, oppositions, etc.) they might indicate an "onset/activation/change" and/or the need to be especially aware of the possibility of a need to seek qualified medical attention before or during that aspect or aspects time-frame. The non-medical astrologer can only detail these aspects and their time-frame(s). The client decides how to use (or not use) this or any other information resulting from a professional astrologer's reading of a natal, progressed or any other horoscope.
NEW - February 13, 2008] QUESTION: I was wondering why astrologers don't use the thirteenth sign of the zodiac Ophiuchus, which is located between Saggitarius and Scorpio. (Art)
ANSWER: Thanks for asking such an IMPORTANT question!!! For many years I too have wondered why astrologers are so stupid they don't use 'Ophiuchus' which everybody knows is located between Sagittarius and Scorpio. While I also am guilty of this UNFORGIVABLE astrological sin, I try to make up for it by using in all my charts the sign 'Outhouse' which I have proven by extensive research clearly is located between the signs 'Henhouse' and 'Smokehouse.' I think you should write a book and enlighten us all by detailing all your research on 'Ophiuchus.' No doubt it would be a best-seller. Best wishes, Elbert
December 16, 2007] Question: I am quite confused about the house cusps. My tenth house has Cancer on the cusp but I have saturn in Leo in the tenth house. How
do I determine the ruler of that house? Cancer has a much different energy than Leo and typically this house determines ones career and
father. Thank you (Krisdana)
ANSWER: The ruler of any house is the heavenly body which rules (is associated with) the sign on the house cusp -- in this case it's the Moon. This tends to indicate your career (or business) is subject to ongoing changes. It could mean that you will make major career changes frequently, perhaps at least every seven years, or even possibly 3 1/2 years. These changes could suggest total changes of direction, places of employment and/or working in situations in which major changes are the "norm." Dig a bit deeper. In which house is the Moon? First house adds a distinct personal note; second house may suggest money and finance; third house, communications -- secretarial, etc.; fourth house, real estate or working from home -- or in a family business; sixth house, public service and health-related; seventh house, legal, design and partherships; eighth house, insurance, antiques, settlements, wills; ninth house, extensive travel, government and courts, tenth house, public office, entertainment; eleventh house, working with or for friends, social employment; twelfth house, working for hospitals, prisions, or working in "secret." Digging deeper as related to career it's also necessary to consider the Moon's placement in the elements (fire, earth, air, water), in which mode (cardinal, fixed, mutable), whether in a masculine or feminine sign, whether it's on the active (rising) or passive (setting) side of the horoscope, and whether it is objective (top half) or subjective (bottom half). And it is very important to note how positively or negatively aspected -- and which planets are in aspect to it. Saturn in the tenth house likely is not so important as the considerations already mentioned except it could suggest delays in achieving what you deem as professional success. Incidentally, while traditionally the father is associated with the tenth house this is not always the case. It usually is the parent who has the major influence -- positive or negative -- in one's life.
NEW - November 13, 2007] QUESTION: A friend of mine has 8 empty houses (she has 6 planets in the 6th house and a few others clustered around), and no earth in her
natal chart. What is the signifance of these "holes" in her chart? (deva)
ANSWER: Since there are 12 houses and only 10 planets (heavenly bodies -- 8 planets, plus Sun -- a star, and Moon -- Earth's satellite), naturally at least 2 houses will be vacant -- without a planetary presence. When there are several planets close together (in the same or adjacent signs) of course additional houses would, of necessity, be vacant. It is only natural (routine) to find most natal horoscopes with several houses without planets within them. As far as having no "earth" in her chart, she no doubt is sorely lacking in the areas of practicality -- good old common sense. (This comment based solely on your question statement, without seeing her total horoscope.)
NEW - November 4, 2007] QUESTION: How can a horoscope reading really help me? (need2know)
ANSWER: Back to the basics -- what then is natal Astrology horoscope reading? In its true and intended use it's an interactive process between a client and an astrologer where the primary purpose is to explore the client's innate (born-with/"birthright") potentials/limitations for "hidden" clues so that the client, using the information, then can work productively to achieve a more fulfilling life. This is accomplished using a unique and accurate horoscope cast for the date, time and place of the client's birth. It does not include any type of "psychic" mumbo-jumbo, numerology or fortune-telling. It is in effect a psychological evaluation, not unlike the Rorschach inkblot and other tests and techniques used by psychologists and psychiatrists to help and counsel their clients/patients -- except Astrology in use by a qualified, experieced and competent astrologer is much faster and considerably less expensive. Of course it is not likely possible to cover in-depth everything about anyone using only a natal chart (horoscope) during a one-time meeting, but nevertheless Astrology can be as revealing as other counseling methods. Often my clients say, with great surprise, "That's what my [psychologist] [psychiatrist] told me are my real problems!" When asked about the time and cost to get this information from them these clients usually say months, even years -- and thousands of dollars.
NEW - November 4, 2007] QUESTION: What does it mean to share the same age as your birthdate, such as being born on the 24th and turning 24? Is there any significance? (Rinn)
ANSWER: Not any significance that I have ever heard or experienced. Where do these urban legends come from? What then would a person who is over 31 do because
they couldn't use this could they?
NEW - September 28, 2007] QUESTION: What does it tell me if a chart's ruler is unaspected for the most part?
Thanks. (Arline)
ANSWER (back-and-forth): I don't know what "it" tells you but I would be interested in learning if you care to share this information with me. Thank you.
Her Reply: Thanks for the response. I'm afraid I didn't state my question very clearly.
I'm just learning astrology and am looking at a female's chart with very
little aspects to Venus. Could that mean anything in her overall experience
of love and money, etc.?
My Response: So, you are a student of Astrology -- congratulations! Even beginning students should soon learn it's next to impossible to get an answer to an isolated horoscope question without the astrologer being able to view the whole horoscope. It is somewhat akin to asking a
blind-from-birth person to describe, on first encounter, an elephant after being allowed to touch *only* its ear, or *only* its trunk, or *only* its tail, etc. The more you learn about Astrology the more you will realize how true this really is.
For example: What sign/house does Venus occupy; what sign rules the second and fifth houses and where and how are they aspected; how many planets are in water and earth signs; what's in the seventh and fifth houses; how are the rulers of the sixth and tenth houses aspected -- and on and on. Bottom line: I can't offer any valid information relative to your inquiry. Best of luck with you study.
Her Reply: I'm getting an education just from this inquiry. Thanks for responding.
Blessings.
QUESTION: When we talk about decans whether in a Sun Sign or rising sign do all the 3 decans take the same physical appearance?
Thanks. (Dean -- Australia)
ANSWER: I assume you mean rising sign because it is more important relative to appearance than is the Sun-Sign -- if they are not the same sign. It's important to keep in mind that a native's physical appearance (without other influences/modifiers) can be defined in a generally accurate way by the rising sign and its decan (decante). But in each individual case other factors have also to be considered. These horoscopic factors include -- to name a few -- house/sign placement of the planet ruling the ascending sign -- and aspects to it, as well as aspects to the ascendant itself. Further, the house/sign placement of the planetary ruler of the decan of the sign which is on the ascendant -- and on and on. I have written a series of lengthy and very detailed articles which attempt to describe all 12 signs and their decans as the natal horoscope's ascendant (rising sign). Click on the link(s) of interest to you. Rising Signs and Decans - | Aries | Taurus | Gemini | Cancer | Leo | Virgo | Libra | Scorpio | Sagittarius | Capricorn | Aquarius | Pisces |
December 6, 2006] QUESTION: My sun sign is Taurus (with Pisces rising/ascendent). Just as a matter of curiosity, I read the predictions for both Taurus and Pisces on the internet. Nothing matches what I have experienced in 2006. I have visited more than 20 websites and there is not one ounce of truth in what I read. My birthday is 7 May 1979, 3:00 AM, Bangalore, India. Could it be that I made a mistake in calculating my ascendent? (Alias: Su-Oli)
ANSWER: No, Su-Oli, you have not made a mistake about your ascendant. Tropically, it's 23 Pisces 01. Know that all those generic "forecasts" are, at best, possible entertainment. There is no way anyone can write a valid general "forecast" for any Sun-Sign (or ascendant), whether it pertains to a year, month, week, or even one day. Generally speaking, all would supposedly apply to some 1/12th of Earth's population -- which is just not possible; in fact, such verbage is downright laughable. "Forecasts" or trends must be done based on a single individual's unique natal horoscope. Read these generic "forecasts" if you like -- but just for laughs. [However, because they are so popular, I offer on this site a free daily "horoscopes" page, courtesy Dell Horoscope Magazine, here.]
November 27, 2006] QUESTION: My birthday is January 2; I am supposed to be a Capricorn, yet
the Sun is in Sagittarius on that date. What am I? (Alias: Cap)
ANSWER: Who said your Sun is in Sagittarius? Anybody born January 2 (any year) would have the Sun in about 12 degrees of Capricorn. Is this a trick question or joke? - Elbert Wade
Email Response: No, it is not a joke. Look in any astronomy book; it has the Sun is Sagittarius on January 2. - Cap
Second Answer: Any ASTRONOMY book. There are two Zodiacs -- Tropical and Sidereal. Heavenly body placements (including the Sun) can be measured in two ways. VERY simply stated, Sidereal indicates the bodies' actual positions in relation to the constellations (fixed stars); Tropical indicates the bodies' positions relative to the constellations AS VIEWED FROM EARTH. [Note -- (if anyone cares): To convert a planet's Tropical location (sign/degree/minute) to Sidereal, add 13 degrees to the Tropical position, then subtract one whole sign.] Siderealist/Vedic astrologers use the Sidereal positions while Tropical astrologers (by far the overwhelming majority) use planetary positions as viewed from Earth. If you were born on Earth, you are Capricorn; if born on the Sun, you are Sagittarius. :) - Elbert Wade, PMAFA
October 17, 2006] QUESTION: What does 'Neptune-trine-Neptune' mean in a chart? I get a
daily horoscope that's broken up into all the different aspects, and my
favorite part says: 'You may be entering a golden age', with those
symbols [Neptune trine Neptune] next to it. Thank you. (Alias: Pala)
ANSWER: One thing for sure, you are in (or close to) your 55th year of life because it takes 55.7 years for Neptune to move 120 degrees (a trine) from its point at birth. I am not familiar with any "saying" that Neptune-trine-Neptune indicates a "Golden Age." (But I don't pretend to have heard all astrological "sayings." :)) However, let's consider what this might mean. First, is natal Neptune well placed (in a water sign: Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces)? If so that's a plus. [Neptune was in Libra (an air sign) the entire years of 1951, 1952, 1953 -- which should cover your birth. Neptune is currently (2006) in Aquarius (an air sign -- which is trine Libra).] Next, is it favorably aspected natally? If so, another plus. If not aspected at all, a plus -- maybe. If only negatively aspected this might "blow" the whole "Golden Age" concept. Neptune, favorably placed/aspected tends to stimulate creativity and perhaps a feeling akin to euphoria; negatively it can confuse, mislead, "pull the wool over one's eyes." If your "favorite part" makes you feel good, go with it. Many blessings.
October 12, 2006] QUESTION: If my Pisces rising is 26 degrees and my second house is 9
degrees Taurus, will my acsendent be affected by Aries? Thank you for
taking time with my question. (Alias: Jeremy)
ANSWER: It's important to remember that whatever sign is rising -- no matter what degree/minute(s) -- is the ascendant (rising sign). In evaluating the ascendant/personality consider first and foremost the major characteristics of that sign. If a water sign, the outer self is basically 'emotional/receptive' in nature. If a fire sign, 'active/dynamic'; if an air sign, 'mental/communicative'; if an earth sign, 'practical/pragmatic.' Consider any additional signs in the first house (in-order) as 'add-on's' to the ascendants' potentials. It/they can either help or hinder the true ascendant.
October 12, 2006] QUESTION: Hi. As I read astrological articles, some places I find that
unaspected planets are especially strong and other places that they are
said to be weak. Which is it? (Alias: tourist)
ANSWER: A planet's sign and house placement means what each of these things mean -- period. Unaspected, it is free to "express" those meanings at a normal and full level. If it's in a compatible sign/house/element/mode position it is strong no matter if aspected or not; if in less-than-compatible 'surroundings,' it will be weaker -- aspected or not. However, the nature of its aspects (if any) can either boost or reduce its strength no matter what its "surroundings."
September 20, 2006] QUESTION: Does Uranus in the seventh house necessarily means the person
will be unfaithful and too independent, or can it mean he just wants
someone different or unusual? Thank you. (Alias: ana)
ANSWER: I get so many of these types of questions which cannot be answered accurately without having a complete natal chart for the person about whom such a question is asked. It's a bit like asking a mechanic to diagnose a car's starting problem after bringing only the hood ornament to the garage.
A seventh-house Uranus can mean the person tends to attract and may be attracted to "strange/unique/wierd/one-of-a-kind" -- even possibly same-sex casual or intimate associates. Often "associates" are met/encountered unexpectedly at improbable places. These "pairings" may or may not end as suddenly as they began.
August 20, 2006] QUESTION: Is the second marriage shown in the 7th house or the 11th? (Alias: DR)
ANSWER: The second marriage is associated with the 9th House, not the 11th. However it is important to note the prospect(s) for marriage in general is/are based on the 7th House. If one has a less-than-promising natal 7th House, all the 9th House can do is possibly improve (or not) on what the 7th House indicates. Then, in 'modern' times, what constitutes marriage? Often couples live together, even have children and never formalize the relationship. (By astrological tradition, the third marriage is related to the 11th house, the fourth to the 1st House, the fifth to the 3rd House, the sixth to the 5th House, the seventh again to the 7th House, and so on around the chart wheel -- skipping one house to get to the next marriage or "meaningful relationship.")
August 1, 2006] QUESTION: How do retrograde planets affect the natal chart? Different books give different versions: delayed action; opposite action; doubly effective; erratic, etc. What is your opinion? Thanks.(Alias: lavish_jam)
ANSWER: Planetary retrograde motion is in actuality an illusion and not a fact; all planets maintain regular forward motion as they rountinely circle the Sun. My opinion and experience is that natal chart "retrograde" planets have the same influence as direct planets. (Of course their aspect influences are delayed in the progressed and transits charts.) Is not your automobile the same size, weight, model and color when it is passed by a faster moving vehicle? Passengers in the faster car might get the illusion that your vehicle seems to be slowing, or even be in retrograde motion. Unfortunately too many astrologers seem to enjoy attempting to impress clients and others with their "knowledge" and cleverness when they can find anything to add which will make Astrology more confusing than it already is, including the silly much-ado about the "influence" of asteriods, retrograde planets and countless other examples of made-up foolishness.
June 2, 2006] QUESTION: I have 5 degrees Aries ascending. Does this mean my ascendant
is on a cusp like a 5 degrees Aries sun would be influenced by the
Pisces sun because it's so close? (Alias: Heidi)
ANSWER: Your question is far from crystal clear; however, I will attempt to answer what I think you mean. The response definitely is NO.
May 25, 2006] QUESTION: How are 5 or 6 planet conjunctions happening in different signs interpreted
e.g. Pisces-Aries, Scorpio-Libra etc.? (Alias: adi4)
ANSWER: A conjuction is a conjunction [not your question, but a fact], which means two or more planets' energies are combined (for better or worse), whether it's within the same sign, between planets in different signs and/or adjoining houses. First consideration: Are the conjoined planets "compatible" or "supportive" or not? Are they both rulers of signs of the same element -- fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), or water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces)? If so, a big plus; if not, a minus. Are both planets rulers of signs of the same mode -- cardinal (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), fixed (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius), or mutable (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces)? If so, a plus; if not, a minus. Are they both rulers of masculine (active) signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius)? If so, a plus; if not, a minus. Are they both rulers of feminine (passive) signs (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces)? If so, a plus; If not, a minus. Then consider the other aspect(s) to the conjoined planets -- if any. If these are positive or negative this would, of course, accent the conjoined-from-different-signs planets' meanings related to the matters associated with the houses involved with these additional aspects. [Confusing? Sorry. Nobody in their right mind ever said Astrology is easy!]
May 2, 2006] QUESTION: Mr. Wade, how would you define a real astrologer? (Alias: need 2 know)
ANSWER: A real astrologer is one who has vast knowledge of the science-art Astrology gained through a long and dedicated study and extensive experience actually reading -- one-on-one -- in-depth horoscopes for actual clients -- non-paying and later those who pay. The real astrologer needs a background and a natural and/or learned skill in psychology, counseling, guidance and problem-solving. The real astrologer never includes anything in the reading of a horoscope which is not actually supported there astrologically. There is never any fortune-telling or gibberish about 'past lives.' Further, no other "divining arts" -- tarot, numerology, palmistry, channeling, aura-reading, phrenology, etc., are ever 'mixed in' with the horoscope reading. Attempting any "mix" clearly indicates the so-called astrologer's lack of astrological competence.
April 28, 2006] QUESTION: 2 years ago my partner and I saw a rainbow around the big
moon (don't know if it was actually full-moon or not, but it looked big) and I was told that not many people get to see it and that we had been blessed. Do you know the meaning of a rainbow around the moon? Thank you? (Alias: curious)
ANSWER: Not really an astrological question but I am happy to answer it anyway. What you saw was a moonbow. Not unlike a rainbow, a moonbow is seen when moonlight is refracted (bent when it passes obliquely -- in a slanting manner -- from one medium to another through air to water droplets, or ice crystals) in the Earth's atmosphere. Not an uncommon occurrence. It would have been visible to anyone over a broad area of Australia should they have looked. I am not in a position to know if you both were blessed. Far be it for me to attempt to dispel long-standing folklore, old sayings or "old wives' tales."
April 27, 2006] QUESTION: I recently spoke with an astrologer and he said something that really caught my attention...he said that I was born on a "star"
and that I had a very good "star." I was born on March 17, 1986, at
4:41 AM - premature. What does the whole "star" thing mean? (Alias: JPKIN163)
ANSWER: I suggest you ask the astrologer who "said something that really caught [your] attention." I assume he uses 'Fixed Stars' with/or for his readings. I and probably 99 out a every one hundred astrologers do not even bother with them. "What does the whole 'star' thing mean?" Again, ask him. This is not a reasonable question to ask me since there are some 290 to 768 fixed stars (depending on who you ask) which lie outside the Zodiac, and literally volumes of often very conflicting and convoluted information have been written about them. I have no astrological interest in the fixed stars because I don't care to bring elements of superstition into the reading of my clients' horoscopes.
April 24, 2006] QUESTION: I was born January 8th but I was supposed to be born April 8th; can this affect my horoscope? (Alias: killcaution)
ANSWER: My knee-jerk question: "Is this a legitimate submission?" Of course it would affect your horoscope -- big time! If April 8, you would have been born in the sign Aries; if born on January 8, your Sun-Sign is Capricorn, with many of the planets in different signs.
April 23, 2006] QUESTION: I recently had my chart done: 9 plants in my 1st house, 7 of them in Saggitarius. The woman acted shocked or amazed; I couldn't really tell. What does it mean if one has 7 planets in Sag in the 1st house? (Alias: saggie)
ANSWER: First, it means you were born in late 1987, probably between December 18 - 21 when a satellitium (also known as stellium) of planets were gathered in Sagittarius. However, and I could be wrong, but did you mean 6 instead of 7 planets in Sagittarius? A similar stellium occurred in Aquarius February 4 and 5 of 1962. Why was the lady shocked/amazed? You'd have to ask her because I don't know. Perhaps your very accented ego (9 planets in 1st house) was a bit overwhelming to her; further she may have been concerned with her anticipation of your lack of paying much attention to what she said (7 planets in 'just-give-me-the-facts' Sagittarius), and your likely impatience with wanting her to get to the 'bottom line' posthaste. :) (Or perhaps she doesn't know these satellitiums occurred.)

February 11, 2006] QUESTION: Many planets in 8th house (Sun, Moon,
Mercury, Venus, Mars), that means Lords of many
houses are in the 8th. Does it call for panic? (Alias: rpsoni)
ANSWER: Panic? Lord no! -- unless perchance you forget you are a Lady and go to bed with these Lords -- especially not all five at the same time. (Ladies and Lords must be ever guardful of their reputations!) Seriously, a 'loaded' eighth house (in this case, five of the ten heavenly bodies) intensifies the desires. Basically, one is 'destined' for great success if that strong desire potential is recognized, controlled and directed toward constructive goals -- or a dismal and tragic failure if this powerful energy isn't harnessed and channeled to positive and worthwhile accomplishments.
February 7, 2006] QUESTION: How do you rate the accuracy of the Vedic system? As far as houses go, some planets slip into different houses, likely due to the 23 degree or so difference? Sometimes these things frustrate me to no
end, until I fall asleep. (Alias: triple-virgo)
ANSWER: Elbert Wade admits he has done little serious investigation of "Vedic" Astrology since early on, finding it's ancient Sidereal (unequal constellations -- and Sun-based) Astrology with a somewhat "newer" name. Generally, siderealists "gave up the ghost" a very long time ago as Tropical (Earth's solar system based) Astrology came to be the most researched, widely accepted, most used -- and most accurate for residents of Earth. For example, Elbert Wade's natal sun (Tropical) is in mid-Virgo -- which fits the more-typical Virgo "Sun-Sign" characteristics; it is not in Leo (Sidereal/Vedic). Further, it's difficult to imagine anyone was "born" or "resides" on the Sun! A question: Is it possible these "Vedic" astrologers are mainly interested in setting themselves apart, and adding even more confusion to the minds of the general public about an already overly-complex science-art -- Astrology? Also I gather from visiting their web sites that many are very arrogant about their "accuracy." Some boast they can rectify (determine) anyone's birth time to the exact second. This certainly is suspect -- especially since no one is likely to have any way to confirm or question whatever time they say is the correct birth time.
Response to Astrology Question-Answer Above (Alias: Janya) Regarding the question-answer above, I would like to clarify this: In my understanding regarding Vedic Astrology.. vedic astrology is earth based. It takes the human as he lives on earth as the starting point. Sidereal concepts are used differently than you are suggesting. Vedic Astrology is Geocentric not Heliocentric. And yes, Vedic Astrology is very accurate though limited in psychological depth and can be frightening to the unlearned unless and until they understand its esoteric and spiritual roots.
February 6, 2006] QUESTION: Hi, i was wondering about my north node in Aries and in the 7th house...what does this all mean? (Alias: catherine)
ANSWER: Against my better judgement (and to help keep this page restricted to questions/answers of general astrological interest, as opposed to an exceedingly boring "do my horoscope" free or "tell my 'fortune'" free total disappointment), I am going to give a semi-answer to this impossible-to-answer-here question.
Whichever house the Moon's North Node occupies in a natal chart (and others) is thought to indicate "good fortune" related to whatever matters are typically "ruled"-by/"associated"-with that house. (See: Horoscope Facts, Figures and Symbols.) In this seventh-house case, marriage, partnerships, contracts, agreements, etc. Does this placement alone mean a pleasing and fortunate marriage is indicated? Probably "yes" if North Node is highly/only positively aspected; probably "no" if it's only/mostly negatively aspected. To give a valid answer an astrologer must have an accurate total horoscope chart. (This does not mean if you send your birth data you will get an answer on this page.)
