For example, you have a chart dominated by fire and air and you happen to have a water moon. Then your moon is a singleton.

Likewise if your moon is the only fixed placement in your chart, it will again be a singleton.

You can also have singletons if it's the only planet in a certain area of the chart (southern hemisphere for example). I have a pluto singleton cos it's my only fixed planet. Just means the energy is more pronounced and accentuated in your personality.

Thanks Mintgirl, I knew what it was but didn't know in what way it affects your personality. Not so sure I like it though!

A lone planet in an element, mode etc can also be classified as a singleton.

Just remember planets are modified by signs, where they express are houses and how they express are *aspects*

so you have the first two. Next look to see where mercury rules (gemini & virgo) http://www.skyviewzone.com/astrology/houserulerships.htm

then research the 'house connections' to make the link.

Is either your two singletons retrograde (going backwards) usually displayed with little r next to degree on chart??

Astrology is a journey of self discovery, analysis. try not to rush things, it's like learning a foreign language.

Basic astrology
Now basically your sun sign is your 'core beliefs, values, ego' and Asc is your physical body, mode of expression and mask and persona that we all wear and hide behind, but definitely not what's going on underneath. What's going on underneath is your Sun sign. Moon sign, house placements and aspects describe your emotional and intuitive responses, also describes your view of your mother, as saturn describes your father by sign and house position.

So, think of a glass milk bottle the bottle is your Asc and your sun the milk, but the milk still has to 'come out' through the glass neck of the milk bottle....

Now aspects within a natal chart represent 'facets' of our personality, because we are all multifaceted beings. What these do is 'break down and compartmentalise' these facets into smaller bite size chunks. This does take quite a lot of self analysis and objectivity to 'see yourself' and why you do certain things and behave in certain ways. Actually it can be quite good therapy...

Remember back to your school days an opposition is 180', square 90', trine 120', and sextile 60' Now challenged aspects are conj (depending on the planets, cos some like each other and some really don't) squares and oppositions. Easy aspects are conj (if the planets get along) eg: Jupiter conj Moon, sextile and trine. Quincunx is inbetween (depending on the planets) causes health strains and unresolved or hard to balance planets/energies.

I love the parable, "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day, BUT if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for life."

Singleton: A planet that is the sole occupant of the horoscope hemisphere in which it is placed; said to give balance to a horoscope that has nine planets in the other hemisphere. See also Bucket.

OMG...My chart is a bucket and my moon in the 4th is the handle.

I also have pluto in the 11th as a singleton bc is in libra the only air/cardinal I have in my chart. My moon biquintiles my pluto...I wonder what that means since those are my two singleton planets connecting.

If you were to leave me, I will not feel sorry for myself; I enjoy your company immensely, but I do not cling.” -Anthony de Mello

I don't use the hemisphere theory but I don't think there IS a 'common' missing element for me at leat and bucket charts are a whole different story,ball game, thread...
