When looking to see which decan your planet(s) are in do you use the same system to find them all?

Ex: You look up the decan of your Aries Sun on a website. Do you look at the exact same thing if you're trying to find the decan for your Aries Venus?

I'm new to this lol.

BTW - feel free to share your favorite sign-decan aspect.

I remember some user on here kept on reminding me that decans are not really about the sign but the planet... I keep on forgetting who but maybe they will see this.

For instance if you aries sun is in aries decan it's really the mars decan.
I sort of agree with this more because the sign is not always a direct representation of a planet.
Mars also rules scorpio which is the most "intense" sign in the zodiac.
Generally it's easy to say Mars in an intense and explosive planet.
So the decans it rules makes for individuals with a burning passion?

My sun-moon is in the Venus decan so I think it emphases a strong sense of aesthetics. I'm more fascinated by art fashion and music which have always been important to me. I mean that's what I studied in school I'm not really interested in anything else lol.

Yes, it's the Ruling Planet.

Mars Rules all of Aries.

First Ten of Aries:
Mars-Mars

Second Ten of Aries:
Mars-Sun

Third Ten of Aries:
Mars-Jupiter

This is because you take all Fire Signs into account in that order, i.e.

Aries-Mars

Next in line:

Leo-Sun

Third Fire Sign:

Sagittarius-Jupiter

It is the same for all of the Zodiac, in the same fashion.

Taurus-Earth
Venus, Mercury, Saturn

Gemini-Air
Mercury, Venus, Uranus

Cancer-Water
Moon, Pluto, Neptune

Leo-Fire
Sun, Jupiter, Mars

Virgo-Earth
Mercury, Saturn, Venus

Libra-Air
Venus, Uranus, Mercury

Scorpio-Water
Pluto, Neptune, Moon

Sagittarius-Fire
Jupiter, Mars, Sun

Capricorn-Earth
Saturn, Venus, Mercury

Aquarius-Air
Uranus, Mercury, Venus

Pisces-Water
Neptune, Moon, Pluto

I use the newer Domicile Attributions, as they make perfect sense to me. Consider both, though.

As I said, the first one listed Rules the whole Sign, so always take it into account. You just mix the two.

Always consider Dignities when using Decanates, sometimes hidden things will come to light.

For instance, my Mercury is in Pisces. If I look up Pisces in the late degrees, I have Pluto decan. Correct? But Mercury is not a water planet. So that's what's throwing me off!

It's the Signs that are in an Element.

Planets Rule the Signs.

There are three Water Signs, three Rulerships.

I know, I get them crossed, too.

If you think of a pizza and it is cut into twelve pieces; there are Four Elements, with three of each kind.

Triangles, all.

Planets are:

Sun
Moon
Mercury
Venus
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto

Sun Rules Leo
Moon Rules Cancer
Mercury Rules Gemini/Virgo
Venus Rules Taurus/Libra
Mars Rules Aries
(Once Scorpio)
Jupiter Rules Sagittarius
(Once Pisces)
Saturn Rules Capricorn
(Once Aquarius)
Uranus Rules Aquarius
Neptune Rules Pisces
Pluto Rules Scorpio

(Octaves are:
Mercury/Uranus
Venus/Neptune
Mars/Pluto)

Sorry, yes.
As Pisces is Ruled by Neptune, you think Neptune first.

As it resides in the third Decanate, it is the Scorpio portion, so you take the two Rulerships and merge them.

So, your Mercury is:

Neptune-Pluto Decanate.

Some would say:

Neptune-Mars/Pluto.


It's always in Pisces, but you can look deeper into the significance with this.

Pluto-mars decanate probably adds some focus rather than being completely spacey with your logic.
A pisces merc (pluto decan) with Mercury trine Pluto is really on point when it comes to logic. Nothing said was too fanciful and just spoke of things for what they really are even if it sounds grim. Still I guess does give a strong imagination and sort of whimsical charm when it comes to the speech pattern.

tongue and cheek but like covered in sparkles lol

It could be that you can say really mean things but people sorta just laugh it off because it does not seem as icy and harsh if a cap virgo or scorp merc said it.

Thanks guys for helping me clear this up!

I also have my Mercury in the 6th. So if we combine all this...

I'm a Pisces-Virgo-Pluto communicator w/ a Mars edge. Wow, that's a lot LOL. But I like that.

You know what?

This explains why I'm such a THINKER. I'm very in-tune w/ my emotions - strongly feel my Cancer Moon intuition.

However! Intellect is EQUALLY important to me. I'm big on conversations - they're like journeys to me! I have a very independent mindset. I'm a great listener & diplomat but when I think about it...I can be quite provocative when I wanna be. Well all be dammed!!

I'm an Air Void in signs. But in Houses/Duads it's totally made up for it seems!

Kero, you are possibly the most Venusian person on earth, dude! After all your Gemini, of course.

No, no.

When it's a Venus Decanate, it Aspects Venus.
This holds true for every single Planet.

On the Decanate, probably the Moon in the Saturn Decanate. It Trines Saturn, too.
