Well, Pluto is the natural ruler of Scorpio, so since Pluto is your most dominant planet, you would have some Scorpio traits (i.e. jealousy and possessiveness).

Mars is your second most dominant planet and you have it in Leo, which is very fun-loving, but they can be very jealous and possessive of their loved ones as well as dominating.

Venus is your third most dominant planet, which is in Cancer. Cancer is very moody, jealous and possessive, but on the positive side, they can be very caring and nurturing.

Hope this helps!

Jane: I'm not entirely sure how they're derived, but I think certain planets are given more weight. That's my best guess, becuase I have no planets in scorpio, but Pluto is my third dominant planet.

Do you have planets in your second house? That could be where the Pluto comes in, since you have scorpio on the cusp. Or do you have planets in the 8th? If not, then I'm at a loss.

I'm:
1-Jupiter
2-Venus
3-Pluto
I understand the first two, because I have a lot of planets in saggie, and my ascendant is in taurus (venus), but pluto...? I'm guessing it's because I have two planets in the 8th house and a stellium on my descendant, which is scorpio. That's why I ask about your placements.

Jane,
you could try a Pullen/Astrolog delineation, from astrodienst. In the free horoscopes section, select the Pullen/Astrolog link and then the last drop down option. It should list all of your planets and elements in a percentile of power of influence in your chart. It looks something like this, in mine;

Planet: Position Aspects Total Rank Percent
Sun: 35.0 ( 6) + 2.3 (10) = 37.3 ( 9) / 5.6%
Moon: 33.5 ( 7) + 10.7 ( 8) = 44.2 ( 8) / 6.6%
Mercury: 52.5 ( 4) + 31.6 ( 3) = 84.1 ( 3) / 12.6%
Venus: 63.5 ( 2) + 21.0 ( 6) = 84.5 ( 2) / 12.6%
Mars: 33.5 ( 8) + 16.5 ( 7) = 50.0 ( 7) / 7.5%
Jupiter: 15.0 (12) + 6.8 ( 9) = 21.8 (12) / 3.3%
Saturn: 18.5 (11) + 32.5 ( 2) = 51.0 ( 6) / 7.6%
Uranus: 45.0 ( 5) + 35.2 ( 1) = 80.2 ( 4) / 12.0%
Neptune: 67.5 ( 1) + 26.4 ( 4) = 93.8 ( 1) / 14.0%
Pluto: 55.0 ( 3) + 22.8 ( 5) = 77.8 ( 5) / 11.6%
Chiron: 22.0 ( 9) + 0.0 (11) = 22.0 (10) / 3.3%
Node: 22.0 (10) + 0.0 (12) = 22.0 (11) / 3.3%
Total: 463.0 + 205.6 = 668.6 / 100.0%

Sign: Power Rank Percent - Element Power Percent
Aries: 85.8 ( 2) / 12.8% - Fire: 161.4 / 24.1%
Taurus: 53.9 ( 6) / 8.1% - Earth: 110.1 / 16.5%
Gemini: 39.8 ( 8) / 5.9% - Air: 213.9 / 32.0%
Cancer: 38.5 ( 9) / 5.8% - Water: 183.2 / 27.4%
Leo: 31.1 (11) / 4.7%
Virgo: 21.8 (12) / 3.3% - Mode Power Percent
Libra: 64.1 ( 5) / 9.6% - Cardinal: 222.9 / 33.3%
Scorpio: 75.0 ( 3) / 11.2% - Fixed: 270.0 / 40.4%
Sagittarius: 44.5 ( 7) / 6.7% - Mutuable: 175.7 / 26.3%
Capricorn: 34.5 (10) / 5.2%
Aquarius: 110.0 ( 1) / 16.5%
Pisces: 69.7 ( 4) / 10.4%
Total: 668.6 / 100.0%


____________________________________________

I thought I was strongest in water (being a sun-moon pisces), but I actually have more air my chart, if that's possible. It's interesting to think about. Give it a try! There's much more to this chart besides this, also - there's interpretations and other delineations. You can find this delineation about halfway down the report.

I'm glad my answer brought some clarity, Jane. I have no idea how they determine the dominant planets, but you could try what Solar-Third suggested:

Go to astro.com
Click on "MY ASTRO" to input birth data if you haven't already
Click on "FREE HOROSCOPES"
Click on "EXTENDED CHART SELECTION"
Under the heading of "METHODS" click on "PULLEN/ASTROLOG"
On the very first drop down menu, select the option at the bottom "SIMPLE CHART DELINEATION BY WALTER PULLEN"

I've done this one before, Mine is 1-Pluto, 2-Venus, 3-Sun. Pluto is at the top because it has the most aspects and it's angular. Venus has the 2nd highest number of aspects and its the ruler of my "strongest" sign, and the Sun because it has the top position in list as well as the highest elevated in my chart and the ruler of my ASC.

There are correlations to your chart of the "strongest" planets, which is usually determined by:
-is it on an angle
-does it make many aspects
-is it the ruler of your sun, moon, asc
-is it highly elevated in the chart
there are other correlations but I don't remember them. So if a planet fits more than one of the above mentions, more likely than not, it's a very strong planet in your chart. Astro.com takes all of the above, and more probably, into account.

Edit:

The list isn't meant to give positive or negative value to the use of the planet. For example if you have "neg" and "pos" aspects to Pluto astro.com doent differentiate them, it just counts the aspects and marks them as more energy geared toward that planet. So you could have strong pluto mars venus for neg or pos its all how you use it and those traits you mentioned are your doing - so you can transform them to something more to your liking if youre not satisfied with how that energy plays out for you.

Also I'd be surprised if they didnt weigh the aspects differently, for example giving more strength to a planet that aspect sun, moon, asc or their rulers vs. jupiter for example unless jupiter is a ruler of one of the above pts.

I'm not sure why Pluto is only ranked 4 since Pluto aspects my personal planets (moon, venus, mars) and since I have cap rising, my chart ruler is Saturn which is Scorpio. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, so shouldn't Pluto have a stronger effect?

I'd have to see the top planets ranked and the chart to comment on that ~ there's probably something else at the forefront tho in a way that maybe neither you nor I expect. Also my strongest sign is my chart signature, and I'm wondering if what they're doing with the sign anyway is as simple as that or if it plays off the strongest planet/luminary.

Mine is :

1. Pluto
2. Neptune
3. Mercury/Saturn/Moon (draw!)

The dominance of each planet is influenced by which planets you include or select. So which planets do you guys go with normally?

My dominant planets are all the 'outside' planets. So.. what does that mean? And even with my ascendant in Sag, my jupiter isn't dominant.

Sun in Scorpio
Moon in Taurus
Asc in Sagittarius

Pluto still doesn't make sense to me. It isn't on an angle; it isn't highly elevated; it isn't the ruler of my sun, moon, or ascendant. I have no planets in scorpio. I just don't get it. It does make some aspects, but third? It baffles me.

I wish I knew how they figured it out.

May want to check if you got Position confused with Rank? That's a possibility.

The way they weight the planets is tough to decipher. I think it's a combination of the planets influence in relation to what sign it's in, as well as how many aspects are made to it. Lesser aspected planets, in theory, are stronger. It may also take into account how important the aspects are. I'm not sure.

My top planets:

1) Saturn
2) Mercury
3) Sun

Pluto is only 0.4% lower in rank than the sun.

My top signs:

1) Gemini
2) Capricorn
3) Scorpio

Damn, why did I have to have Saturn (planet of hard lessons) as my dominant planet? Maybe that's why I have this reversed karma thing going on...

I think that's what happened. I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I swear, all year I've been bad at details and I'm usually really good with them. I've been getting sick a lot this year too. Ugh.

It's actually Neptune. I have like, 40 aspects to neptune. I don't see 40 aspects to that planet, but I'm sure they're correct.
