I wanna agree but I can't.

Each system of astrology does have it's own specific rules of what each planet represents and that's how you get an accurate reading. It's really not a case of each planet meaning what you want it to mean.

I do agree it's not a race or a competition but there is a system in place that exists for a reason.It may seem like raining on someone's parade to point out that Venus isn't the planet of the sciences, but actually it's helping them out so they learn the right way to do something. To me just nodding and saying "Okay" is a bad thing, like not correcting someone when they say 4+3=18, and then letting them go out into the world for years on end, thinking that's correct and probably getting cheated out of money, etc.

Teaching people the right way to do something that has a system and set of rules isn't "restrictive" or "controlling".

My Tenth House starts in Taurus while my Eleventh starts in Gemini. Rulers in Scorpio and Libra. Would that denote an incisive left brain and an impressions-oriented right side? Ironic that my left and right brain rulers would be Venus and Mercury in your theory.

lol that was the whole point. What you felt best represented the right and left brain turned out to best represent yourself, which happened to fit my theory o personalizing the 10th and 11th house rulers for yourself.

10h sign and ruler: Pisces, neptune in Capricorn

11h sign & ruler: Aries, ruler mars in Scorpio

IMO, both these planets exert a fair share of influence in my chart. They both make aspects to my sun and moon and personal planets. However, since mars is in a domicile sign, I think it's stronger than neptune in Capricorn where it'll feel restricted, desptite being in an angular house. I am predominantly right brained, but that doesn't make my left brain lag by a lot. As I've said in the previous post, the percentage breaks down by 55/45.

I also think developing my left brain to its full potential would probably one of my life goals, since neptune conjuncts my NN.

SE's theory on the other hand:

Mercury: Sagittarius, 6h
Venus: Libra, 4h

Here, mercury is my chart ruler but it's in detriment in Sagittarius and its placement in the 6th house, further debilitated by being the apex of a t-square. Libra is in its domicile sign, aspecting neptune and saturn. Just by looking at this, you could tell that I am right-brain dominant.

So I guess both theories are actually applicable.

Fair enough, but keep in mind that SE's theory of Mercury and Venus fit my theory of the 10th and 11th house rulers symbolizing the left and right brain.

But, if I actually applied my theory to my chart:

mercury in the 6h Sagittarius, 12h Taurus (no planets) ruler venus in the 4th. (merc and venus? theoryception? )

Anyways.

Sag merc= fire/creative/R brain
Scorpio 6h= water/R brain
6h= Earth/Logical house

So since the 12h is the polar opposite, I'll break it down too:

Taurus 12h= Earth/Logical/L brained
Libra 12h ruler= Air/L brained
12h= Water/Creative house

So that says I'm R brained. Since the 6h reperesents the R brain in my chart, the 12h represents the left. Since mercury doesn't aspect venus, the ruler of my 12th, I am predominantly R brained.

I know there are a lot of loopholes there, but it's a liiiiiiitle bit close to SE's.

6th/left brain
12th/right brain

5th/ right brain
11th/left brain

So how would I break that down?

6th house has Pisces on the cusp

rulers are Jupiter/Neptune

Jupiter is in twelfth/Virgo cusp, conjunct ascendant/Mercury/Uranus, sextile Venus, inconjunct Saturn, quintile Mars, square midheaven

Neptune is in second opp moon and trine Venus/Chiron/NN makes many aspects to the asteroids.

6th house has Virgo on the cusp

Ruler is Mercury in twelfth conjunct ascendant/Jupiter/Uranus, sextile Venus, trine moon, inconjunct Saturn quintile Mars square midheaven.

5th house/11th house:

5th is right brain/creativity
Aquarius is on the cusp
ruled by Uranus and Saturn

Uranus is in twelve/Virgo cusp conjunct ascendant/Mercury/Jupiter/Pluto, sextile Venus, trine Moon, biquinitile Saturn, square midheaven.

Saturn is in house eight/Taurus cusp trine sun, square Venus sextile midheaven

11th house left brain
cusp is in Leo

Ruler is sun in eleven or twelve, depending on house system.

sun trines Saturn, widely squares Mars, sextiles midheaven.

Saturn and Sun say science. Jupiter and Mercury say art. I am conflicted by my right and left hemispheres. My thinking is very dual and fragmented. I suffer from boughts of indecision about what to pursue mentally. I have simultaneous thoughts that are quite fantastic.

Doesn't this mean you used his theory
