I somehow must have missed your thread on Pholus.

But I`m very interested in the results of your research. How did it manifest in your life?

I noticed a strong involvement of Pholus in my own synastry, and it puzzles me quite a lot.

Natally I have Pholus in Pisces conjunct my Ceres, sextile my Venus and square my Mars and ASC.
Draco Pholus is in Gemini in my tropical 7th house, conjunct my Part of Karma and opposing my Sun-Mercury-conjunction.

In the synastry with P there is a strong influence of Pholus I think.
My Pholus conjuncts his Chiron and opposes his Pluto and sextiles his Karma exactly.

His Pholus exactly conjuncts his own SN, and in the synastry:
His Pholus exactly conjuncts my Moon and also exactly trines my Karma, which gives us a DW on Pholus-Karma.

I guess it was part of the plan for this life to experience through him (even though only on an emotional level), and I can say that just through being "aware of him" I have been transformed instantly, quickly and irreversibly.
Actually me noticing him somehow led to develop into a spiritual direction very quickly, maybe too quickly in some instances.

When I coincidentally "ran" into him last year, Transit Pholus had been conjunct my natal Mars;
Also, the transiting NN was conjunct my natal Pholus exactly. And Saturn was opposing my natal Pholus, while transiting Mars trined it.

when I saw him again later that year, Transit Pholus had just left the square to my natal Pholus and was still conjunct my natal ASC and already conjunct my Neptune and NN (by 1,5°).

When I noticed him so many years ago, Transit Pholus was conjunct my Draco-Pholus and my Part of Karma and opposing my tropical Sun and Mercury (Mercury is very important for me, since it rules my 7th house).

When I first spoke to him Transit Pholus was exactly square my Moon (and his own Pholus-SN-conjunction), exactly trine my Juno and exactly trine my Saturn, while Transit Ceres and Valentine were conjunct my natal Pholus.

So, I guess there is a definite Pholus-pattern here.

EDIT:

In the composite Pholus is exactly conjunct Valentine with 14 minutes of arc on 27° Aquarius.
And the Sabian for this is:

"AN ANCIENT POTTERY BOWL FILLED WITH FRESH VIOLETS.

KEYNOTE: In this symbol we see pictured the dependence of the purest feelings of natural living upon the traditions within which they find their most adequate and effective setting. It is a symbol of DELICACY OF FEELING."

I think it`s a very peaceful symbol and I like it.

Interestingly we have a Venus-Jupiter-conjunction in the composite, which falls onto my natal Pholus (and his natal Chiron opposing his Pluto).

The composite Mercury-Atlantis-conjunction falls exactly onto his SN and Pholus (and my Moon).

The composite Pholus / Valentine is conjunct my own Lilith and Psyche and opposes his Uranus. (It also conjuncts his Kaali exactly).

BTW I checked several of my synastries, including crushes, friendships and so on, but this was the one synastry, in which Pholus-interaction really stood out.

2nd EDIT:

Interestingly I knew P only from cd`s and pictures, and he had disappeared from the face of the earth, but exactly in 1992, the year of Pholus` discovery, he "reappeared" and became a real and physical person so to speak.
Almost like he crossed the borders from Neptunian dreams to Saturnian reality.

I thought that was tigerlily's thread on asteroids I read a few days ago but now I can't seem to find it.
