Apparently, Jupiter is my dominant planet but based on the degrees, shouldn't Uranus be my dominant planet - especially since it's in Capricorn? (I have a cap stelium)

Edit.. I never knew what Dom meant but knew it referred to the strength of the planet in the sign.

Here are the dominant planets and signs:

Dom. In this circumstance stands for 'Domicile'

Domicile/Domicilium is basically the Latin term for home/dwelling/at home.. So.. When a planet is in domicile, that usually means it is in the sign it rules.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, Athene and Reading Makes sense now.

Doux Rêve, thank you! If that's the case: Saturn, Sun, and Moon are my dominant planets.

A planet can be "dominant" if it's conjunct an angle in your chart (ASC/DSC, IC/MC); if it rules a stellium (e.g. You have a Capricorn stellium - Saturn is a dominant), and some people consider the ruler of the ASC as automatically "dominant".

But you'll probably get as many variable opinions as there are people who are into astrology on this one.

If that's the case I'd have :
Sun (LeoRising, Sun Conjunct IC {10 orb though})
Saturn (Conjunct ASC)
Venus (Libra Stellium, Libra Venus),
Mars, Pluto (Scorpio Stellium)
Mercury (Conjunct IC)

*Stellium in this case is 3 planets--though there is NN, PoF, Ceres, Spica, Vesta etc in there as well.

How do you figure out which is the MOST dominant?

If you are willing to post your chart, or send me a picture of it.. I'd be willing to help you out.

But in the example provided by goddess, those who point out that 'DOM' means "Domicile", a planet in its own sign (dignity) are correct.

posted July 21, 2015 10:18 PM            

Any planet in its earth viewed position
that is conjunct it own heliocentric node or the Helio node of another is "DOMINANT"
since you only showed us Jupiter and Uranus I don't know if this applies at all to your own chart.
So if you had Aries rising it might be said
that Mars is chart ruler,but IF Mercury was at 16sag > H. south node Venus It would be stronger in your true self than what may be seen than the Aries rising/Mars energy.
Of course that is just my observation
For all practical purposes the positions below are fixed as Helio Nodes move very little.

MERCURY 17.59 Taurus (North Nodes) and 17.59 Scorpio (South Nodes)
MARS 19.24 Taurus (North Nodes) and 19.24 Scorpio (South Nodes)
URANUS 14.01 Gemini (North Nodes) and 14.01 Sagittarius (South Nodes)
VENUS 16.30 Gemini (North Nodes) and 16.30 Sagittarius (South Nodes)
JUPITER 10.14 Cancer (North Nodes) and 10.15 Capricorn (South Nodes)
PLUTO 19.54 Cancer (North Nodes) and 19.54 Capricorn (South Nodes)
SATURN 23.30 Cancer (North Nodes) and 23.30 Capricorn (South Nodes)
NEPTUNE 11.33 Leo (North Nodes) and ll.33 Aquarius (South Nodes)
Plus ..
CHIRON 29.09 Libra (North Nodes) and 29.09 Aries (South Nodes)

(I mean.. I could try and figure out by what you put.. But, seeing the actual chart helps a lot. )

Sure, here you go (without Ceres, etc)

Jupiter is your most dominant planet.

It recieves the most aspects (Regardless of applying/seperating).
Moon square Jupiter
Jupiter Square Pluto.
Venus trine Jupiter.
Jupiter trine Uranus.

Using Modern astrology, Jupiter aspects the rulers of 3 of your 4 angles (Pluto as 4th; Uranus as 7th, Venus as 10th) which is a strong testimony. So additional strength is given to it.

Despite your natal Jupiter being in Retrograde, it sits in the 11th house which is a good house for Jupiter. In horary astrology, Jupiter in the 11th house is in it's 'house of joy'.

Jupiter is exalted when in Cancer, so it can still function positively despite the fact that it's not in it's home sign(s).

This is why your Jupiter is most dominant. Do you feel Jupiter alot in yourlife?

EDIT: Just realised that you weren't the OP, but looking again at your chart, Jupiter appears to be up there if it is not your dominant planet; i'd also say Saturn is dominant in your chart too.

Thanks for the analysis Sven--appreciate it!

What does OP mean btw?

I never thought of Jupiter as my dominant. I definitely feel Saturn a lot, especially lately with it being in Scorpio. But given that it is on my ASC, I feel it all the time. My job requires that I be very extroverted--and Saturn on my ASC can make me seem reserved, at first..

Oh right! Well it's definately up there in the dominance chart, but Saturn might be higher as it's conjunct your ASC. Even though you feel reserved, at first; do you feel positive too?

Good good, oh you are one of those

Well Mercury is square your Saturn and opposite your MC. So that could be the source of your worries.

The only possible modifier to this, for this chart's Asc at supposedly 12N04, is whether Chiron at 11N56 is in tighter parallel to the correct exact Asc position than Saturn at 12N47.

Often the most dominant planet cannot be determined by looking at the flat wheel chart alone. The declinations must be taken into account. Even then, full validation of the Asc sign/degree is necessary (for those who know how to do this) to be certain.

You can't be certain of dominant planet unless you use declinations for every chart -- and validate every Asc. This can be painstaking work even for those of us who know how to do it.

That's so very interesting that you mention Chiron...with it being the "handle" to the bowl--and with it being in the 9th House and my urge to always teach people this or that--I've wondered if Chiron plays as much as role as a planet in my chart...
