Is the Part of Fortune considered fated? I was wondering since it involves Sun, Moon and Ascendant.

the POF is a fortunate spot.
say you wanted to buy a car for a while and were looking for the best deal usually the par of fortune will be active when you do purchase that new car.

That is they way I have heard it explained.

Conjuctions to the POF in synastry can also indicate people who seem to be a blessing in your life. It's like a mini version of Jupiter, that's how I've heard it described.

Like if someone's Venus conjuncts you're Part of Fortune, would this be a blessing for the Venus person or for the Part of Fortune person?

Here is what I found:

Part of Fortune
Part of Fortune - Fortuna Symbol

In astrology, the Part of Fortune, sometimes called Fortuna, is the most popular Arabic Part. Arabic Parts are sensitive points in a chart, and are calculated using specific formulas whereby two planets or points are added together, and a third planet or point is subtracted from that result.
The Part of Fortune is calculated as follows:

For day births (A.M.), Ascendant + Moon - Sun

For night births (P.M.), Ascendant + Sun - Moon

The Part of Fortune represents worldly success, and is associated with the physical body and health as well. It can be indicative of the career or vocation. The condition and placement of the ruling planet of the Part of Fortune (that is, the natural ruler of the sign in which the Part of Fortune is placed) is important to factor into the interpretation of this Arabic part. Worldly success and prosperity are associated with the Part of Fortune, and both its sign and house placement suggests innate abilities and talents--areas of life and qualities that are expressed naturally.

The Part of Fortune lies the same distance in longitude from the Ascendant as the Moon lies from the Sun. Therefore, if for example the Sun is conjunct the Moon in the natal chart, the Part of Fortune will lie close to the Ascendant; and if the Sun and Moon are in opposition in the natal chart, the Part of Fortune will lie close to the Descendant.

It is interesting to note that the Arabic part, the Part of Spirit, is calculated in an opposite manner, and also symbolizes the reverse or opposite theme of spiritual well-being.

If the Part of Fortune is not listed or included in your natal chart wheel, you can calculate the Part of Fortune (and other Arabic Parts) with this online Arabic Part Calculator. It's easy and accurate.


***** Keys to the Interpretation of the Part of Fortune:
As noted above, the Part of Fortune points to innate talents that set us on a path to worldly success.

* First look to any planets or points that are tightly conjunct or opposite the Part of Fortune as significators of vocation, career, and natural talents--keys to success.
* Second, determine the ruling planet of the sign of the Part of Fortune, and consider that planet as another significator.
* Consider the sign and house placement of the Part of Fortune as qualities and areas of life where we possess natural and innate talents or abilities, and that can be considered keys to worldly success and prosperity.
* Look to any planets or points posited in the same sign as the Part of Fortune, whether or not they are conjunct the point. These will also play a role in our profession.

Well, I guess I'll have to determine whether or not this person who's Venus is contacting my POF is a blessing.

It sounds like overt flattery on the other persons end (planet person), and then I feel like, hey what about me, I'm the one who's POF is contacting your Venus!

I have POF in 12th

Its ruler mercury is also my chart ruler virgo and its in my 10th house conjunct my sun. I always consider myself very lucky. Especially in regards to jobs and status. I thought that it mightve been my jupiter in sag but i guess this makes sense also.

You don't actually "feel" contacts to your POF...it's not really personal. It's just good fortune coming your way. And it's like " OH wow, that works out so well. Awesome!"... Things fall into place and it feels like fluky good luck. But it doesn't make the relationship tick.
