Fly,I'm glad the website helped. Yes, I realize sometimes people have to go back to reread things but I purposely designed it to force people to read it all the way through ONCE. After that, they can bookmark the pages they need to refer to.
I talk about the "astro-sentence". And I really AM thinking about a sentence. So, in a typical sentence, we could have "The Sizzling Electricity is in the Outlet on the wall." (capitals added for emphasis). So Sizzling" modifies "Electricity" and the focus is in the "Outlet".
It works the same way in the astro-sentence". Sign modifies Planet (the sign tells us something about the way the planet works) focused on House (the house tells us what life issues the energy of the sign focuses on). Let's use and "astro-sentence" style taken from your chart: Scorpio (transformation) modifies Pluto (transformation) focused in the 8th house (transformation). So we have Transformative Transformation (energy) is focused on Transformation. So already we can see there is a "whole lot of "transformation" going on". "Transformation" is about the whole life and death process so things associated with death and rebirth are also associated with Scorpio/Pluto/8th house: power, control, occult, for example. So there is a STRONG interest in power, control, occult, and life and death issues.
You have no planet in the 1rst or 12th house, but you DO have your Ascendant there. So we can use a shortened form of the "astro-sentence" (leaving out the part about the "house"). Pisces (spirituality) modifies Ascendant (self). So you are a "spiritual" person. Spirituality is about the dissolving of the barriers between us and those around us. So spiritual energy is both connecting and confusing, since it makes it difficult to separate ourselves from those around us.
I suggest writing out the astro-sentences for the planets FIRST, and then writing out the astro-sentences for Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, and Nadir. Only AFTER you have done all that can you look at aspects. Because aspects are simply ways to join two "astro-sentences" together. Let's take a look at another "astro-sentence" and then add in an aspect, to show how this works.
Capricorn (duty) modifies Neptune (spirituality) focused in the 10th house (duty). So there is a STRONG "spiritual duty" here. Now let's join two "astro-sentences" with aspect information.
Scorpio (transformation) modifies Pluto (transformation) focused in the 8th house (transformation) sextile (energy goes easily with) Capricorn (duty) modifies Neptune (spirituality) focused in the 10th house (duty). Now, to simplify things, let's take the "short form" we created for each of these "astro-sentences" and connect them with the aspect information
There is a STRONG interest in power, control, occult, and life and death issues and this goes easily with (sextiles) an urge for a STRONG "spiritual duty". There is a blending of power and spirit.
Let me know if you have any questions about this.
Opening others to astrology,
