There is a lot of disparities in terms of Sabian-degree allocation between sites like cafeastrology and mind-fire.

http://mindfire.ca/The%20Sabian%20Symbols/An%20Astrological%20Mandala%20-%20Contents.h tm

Then from an old thread IQ was quoted as saying

quote:

---

that if something is under 53 minutes, you use the lower number. For example, Moon at 22 deg 23 min Leo is at 21-22 Leo, and Moon at 22 deg 53 min Leo is at 22-23 Leo.

I can only offer what I've learned from Ceri. I think she uses minutes above a degree as the next degree when it comes to reading Sabian symbols. So for example Aries 20 deg 19 min would mean the Sabian for 21 Aries applies. At least this is how I understand it, hope I'm not wrong. Tho I'm sure if it were a matter of just a couple of mins. after the deg, like Aries 20 deg, 05 min, it would be ok to read it as Aries 20?

Also, if other aspects in a chart support that the individual is an evolved type, then I would assume the positive part of the Sabian reading rather than the negative.

So for example I've read where iQ has said smth to the effect that in a Star Seed chart, a person with Nessus conjunct Sun (my own example, not iQ's) would mean that the person has witnessed or been exposed to other people being abused and could actually help such people.

Just my 2 cents, I'm no expert as you know.

Hope you're doing well

Lynda Hill also does Sabian symbols and so does Lyn Birkbeck though I don't think Lyn B's are available on line, his book is worth having if you're in to the symbols because it's more detailed, easy to understand and splits the interpretations in to separate categories ~ love, work, health, and general.
