**Sample Interpretations:**
19-20 deg Aquarius
A Large White Dove Bearing A Message
Depending on the planet or asteroid in this degree, the meaning will vary. The generic meaning is that there is a clear sign of peace. Is the Native the Message or the Messenger? Mercury in this degree would mean that the Native is capable of using communication skills and words for bringing peace. Mars on the other hand would imply that the Native likes to take action for the sake of peace, she is the Large White Dove.
24-25 deg Aquarius
A Butterfly With The Right Wing More Perfectly Formed
A butterfly comes from the cocoon after undergoing metamorphosis. Metamorphosis implies contemplation and deep meditation, points that are more of the Right Brain type. Thus, this degree points to this right brained holistic development. Natives with Venus aspect Neptune or Asteroid MUSA (600) in this degree can create highly intuitive and powerfully evocative masterpieces of music, painting or scultpure. Mercury in this degree would point to a very high right brain intelligence.
