r/horary

Something happened earlier today at work. I went into the break room and encountered another employee there. Then I went to the bathroom to change, and when I came back, she was outside the break room. As soon as I pulled the door, it broke. The material is certainly quite fragile, but it seemed a little strange to me. She left saying that I had opened the door with too much force and that I had pushed it with my foot to hide the broken part. She even recorded a video, took pictures, and sent them to the supervisor.

I am L1 in Virgo, so I am Mercury. She is Pisces, so she is Jupiter.

I noticed that my significator, Mercury, is in my 12th house. In that case, it makes me feel like I am the one who broke it (I sabotaged myself), or that I am in the territory of my hidden enemies. And because Mercury is under the beams of the Sun, I can't seem to understand the situation clearly.

Context: A few weeks ago while on a cleaning spree, I somehow lost my Swiss Army knife. That thing was the most utilitarian and organized instrument in my life, and its absence has been felt. The last time I remember having it was when I was breaking down a bunch of boxes, and I put it down on my nightstand and thought that I didn’t need it yet, but I would soon.

It’s not like me to throw things out that I didn’t mean to, but it’s certainly not unlikely because as I said I was really on a cleaning tear. I’ve looked in every nook and cranny for it, torn my room up, looked in places it wouldn’t be possible and no dice.

Interpretation: horary is a medium I respect deeply but can’t seem to get a handle on, so bear with me. Both the querent (me) and the second house cusp of possessions are in Gemini, making them ruled by Mercury. So, I suppose in this case I would be the moon. The moon is in fall in Scorpio, in the 6h of daily routines. The thing that gives me a little hope is that Mercury is in the 4h, home. However, it’s making a square to my already fallen moon. I can’t if that means in my fervor to get my bedroom organized I threw it out of my room, or the fact that the square is applying means it’s somewhere in here, but I’ve made it very hard on myself in terms of finding it lol. Any interpretations would be appreciated!

This is a woman I have a crush on. We're friends, very good friends. At least, our dynamics is different from everything I have ever had - and she said something similar once about me.

My significator is Mars (weak in Cancer), hers is Venus (in domicile in Libra). There's an square aspect between them, which I understand as tension and attraction. Venus is strong in this position, but opposite to Saturn and I wonder if there's something holding her. Venus and Moon are on her 5th house (from my 7th house/her 1st), which puts her on a position of romance and flirting, something fun and light. I am on my 8th house, so my feelings for her are intense.

I think she feels there's something more between us, some chemistry or mutual attraction, but there's something (Saturn) that prevents her from doing something about it.

Context: My family lives overseas while I currently live in the US. They have been pressuring me to go live with them overseas while I wait to hear back from fellowships for postdocs. However, I don’t want to since I’d have to be separated from my husband for an indefinite amount of time. I am a US citizen.

My interpretation: Sagittarius is rising, so I’m signified by Jupiter at 10° Leo in the 8th house. I’m taking the 9th house for international travel; the 9th cusp is in Leo, so the trip is signified by the Sun at 22° Leo, also in the 8th. Jupiter and the Sun are in the same sign, and Jupiter is in the Sun’s domicile, but I don’t think they perfect a conjunction because the Sun is faster and moving away from Jupiter. The Moon is at 20° Virgo in the 9th house, which seems to emphasize international travel, but I don’t see the Moon making an applying aspect that brings Jupiter and the Sun together. Since there doesn’t seem to be an applying aspect/perfection between me and the ruler of the 9th, I’m leaning no, although the Moon being in the 9th makes me unsure. Would you interpret this as the trip not happening, or am I missing something?

So, I would like to get some help with this chart. The question is: will I get the job? I applied to this job which seems quite nice and I was interviewed today. It seems a great fit. I cast this horary when I received invitation. L1 is in Scorpio, so I am Mars in Gemini in L8, peregrine; job is L10 ruler Sun domiciled in Leo. No aspect between Sun and Mars, so this indicates a no. Moon exalted in Taurus in L6, will square Jupiter, then Sun (the job), then sextile Mercury and finally trines Venus. Even if squares are usually no, on the strength of significators is this a maybe? All help is appreciated.

-UPDATE/RESULT-

I got the job offer!!! Not sure when I start yet of course (I predict around the next eclipse since that one hits my natal 10th house and 10L lol) but it's been signed and officialized :)

Hello all! This is a job interview thing in which I've gone through the process and I do feel like it went really well. There's just a few certain things where I'm like "did I say the wrong thing?" and overall feeling very unconfident at this point due to the following:

Lately I've had several job interviews which I feel like went extremely well (down to the interviewer outright saying they would like to have me and will look into next steps), yet, in all of those situations, they never actually followed up and went with somebody else. For that reason, I struggle to trust my intuition at this point.

In this chart, I do notice the sextile forming between the 10th lord Venus and my ruler, Jupiter. I also notice the sextile with the ascendant from Venus which is lovely as well. The only thing that concerns me is that Venus is extremely strong, more than my Jupiter, which I feel could represent the job's own interests overriding mine. Moon is also very uninvolved in these alignments and in the sign of Venus's debilitation. I'm wondering what your guys's interpretation of this is?

I suppose another consideration of mine was that I thought of this question about five minutes prior to going to my laptop and drafting up this horary, so if I push it back those five minutes, Mercury becomes the 10L and I feel like it looks promising in that case also due to the applying conjunction.

Thank you so much for any responses.

There's this girl I started talking to online. To be honest, things haven't been very warm between us yet. In fact, I had to be very patient just to get her WhatsApp number because she rarely logged into the dating app. Eventually, I managed to get it, and we've talked a bit more since then.

We only live about 3 km apart. Even though I'm in the middle of exam week, I'd like to ask her out this weekend (even though it's Valentine's Day). I admit I'm feeling a bit insecure, but at the same time, I'm feeling courageous.

I'm an Aquarius, so my significator is Saturn, and she's a Leo, so hers is the Sun. Besides that, I also have the Sun as a co-significator and the Moon, while she has Venus.

Saturn exalts the Sun, so I believe I'm genuinely interested in her. However, as the Sun, she doesn't offer any dignity to any of my significators. Likewise, as the Sun, I don't offer any dignity to her significators either, which may suggest that I'm not especially attracted to her physically.

On the other hand, her Venus in Cancer receives my co-significator, the Moon in Pisces, and they're in a trine aspect. I think this could indicate that she feels some attraction toward me, but perhaps in a way that's more subjective.

As for the degrees, the only planets that are really close are the Moon and Venus, with just a one-degree separation. I'm not sure whether that would indicate success if I asked her out.

I just noticed that the ruler of the 1st house (L1) is not only exalting the ruler of the 7th house (L7), but also my own significator of masculinity (the Sun). And the Moon in Pisces and Venus in Cancer are in mutual reception.

Context:

We've been together for 5 years and never broke up but we had some pretty serious arguments around trust and visibility. He's been trying to step up and showing real progress but due to lingering resenment and hurt on my part I've been struggling to see his efforts and to accept positively changed behaviour. So we've both been feeling burnt out for a while and I felt some real emotional distance on his part last night when we were having one of our regular phone calls. We usually talk about the things that bother us but he didn't tell me what was bothering him last night, I just felt the change in his tone. He sounded tired and uninterested. There is this unexplainable heaviness in the air. Today he didn't text me good morning and takes more time to reply to my texts than normal. wonder if it's the beginning of an end or am I just being overly sensitive and unnecessarily anxious?

Interpretation:

I see that his planet and mine are in an applying conjunction in the house of hopes and future. Also Venus is in the 1st house in her own sign so it must mean that this is not over yet and he is still fond of me(?) I read that having Sun conjunct another planet makes a combustion due to Sun's blinding effect. Does that mean it is not a good placement? I am not sure because I am not an advanced astrologer. That's why I went looking for interpretation help in the first place. It's just how it looks to me and I need help with clarity.

RECAST CHART FOR TODAY, NOT WHEN I LOST IT.

I lost my mom's ring between inside my old apartment and the bus stop. Took it off to do dishes and put it in my pocket, when I took out my other rings to put them on while making the walk to the bus stop, it wasn't there any more.

My guess: With the ASC ruler Mars (me) in fall but moving towards the ruler of the object (2H Gemini: Mercury), I am a little hopeful. The kite points towards the object as well, signaling a positive outlook for the ring. In the fixed sign Leo, this indicates that the ring is in a fixed spot and won't easily be moved at this moment, pointing to it being within the apartment. However, the Moon, in the same house and sign as Mercury is moving away from Mercury. The heavy presence of trines, sextiles, and the kite in this chart give me hope that the ring will be found.

It's deeply meaningful to me and I'd do anything to get it back. Please help me interpret this chart and see where to search for / if I'll get it back. My old roommate still lives in that building so I can search for it. Thank you!

Context: I’m 32F single for a very long time. Lately I’m talking to a bunch of people but I haven’t gone on a date. I feel like nothing is working out and I can’t seem to find a normal guy I’m attracted to. Location is a barrier. Small town no options. I’m talking to men from other towns but nothing significant to actually travel to meet someone. Lately I’m also attracting men with mental illnesses which terrifies me.

Interpretation: well it’s not good.

I’m mercury 27 degrees in cancer 2nd house.

The potential man would be 7th house so Jupiter in Leo 3rd house. He’s strong. I’m also counting Sun and Venus. Sun in Leo is strong and Venus just entered Libra so I guess that means I feel good? (I don’t).

Moon 10 degrees in Gemini 12th house.

No aspect between Mercury and Jupiter so I guess the meeting doesn’t happen. Moon separating from Jupiter but applying to Sun. Moon separating from Venus and mercury separating from Venus.

Mars in the 1st maybe it shows a man that’s in my space. Mars likes mercury but I don’t think mercury likes mars.

Does this mean that I’ll never meet the love of my life?

Do we take into account that mercury will con Jupiter eventually? But mercury has to change signs. Maybe after a change I’ll meet him?

About reception I’m into myself basically and he’s into himself too.

Several months ago I applied for a government payment scheme after an accident I had. The first chart I cast suggested I would get the payment in 3 units of time, as I am Jupiter, and Govt Money is 11th House, (venus) applying a sextile to Jupiter. It has past 3 months, and decision was rejected. I appealed, and upon waiting for the decision, I cast another chart (this is around 5 months after the first chart was cast and appeal been made). Again, there is an applying aspect of the 11th House ruler of Govt Money, Mercury to my. signifier Venus. Likewise the Moon is applying to a sextile to Venus, my signifier. I recieved the decision again and they didn't accept my appeal.

There is one final appeal I can request, but before I do that, I am just genuinely confused why the charts seem to show an affirmative result when the case has been the opposite. It is making me lose faith in horary practice.

Please review the respective charts attached and tell me what you think.

First chart is the white background one with Jupiter rising, the second is with Libra rising.

Thanks

Hi everyone!
I’m still learning traditional horary astrology and would really appreciate some feedback on my interpretation.
Question: Will Carlos and I get back together?
Context:
Ive been traveling since june 15, Carlos and I are such a Match in how we live, our hobbies, sex, lifestyle, but with different approaches, he's a piscis who's dogmatic and science oriented and I'm a Virgo into this "magic" world, very intuitive and spiritual.
Our diamsagreements are based on that, a dumb subject can become an argument and when I express my feelings he tends to say I make things bigger (and yes sometimes I can) but I also see that in him and don't say. I feel he points a lot on me but don't look at himself.

I’m currently in Mysore, India, doing an Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training. Carlos and I were planning to travel together to Sri Lanka after the course, but due to ongoing relationship issues he cancelled the trip and we’re currently separated, he broke up with me in August 2, the day before starting the teacher training. For some reason I don't feel this is true or definitive or don't even know if it's just shock.
The question wasn’t whether we still love each other, but specifically whether we will reconcile.

Me: Sagittarius rising → Jupiter.
Co-significator: Moon.
Carlos: 7th house in Gemini → Mercury.

My interpretation
The Ascendant is neither too early nor too late.
I am represented by Jupiter in Leo in the 9th house, which I found interesting because I’m literally abroad in India studying spirituality, so the chart seems descriptive of my current circumstances.
Carlos is represented by Mercury in Cancer in the 8th house, which made me think he may be going through his own emotional transformation or crisis.
The first thing that stood out is that I don’t see an applying major aspect between Jupiter and Mercury, which makes me question whether reconciliation is actually moving toward perfection.
The Moon is in Gemini in the 7th house, so I thought this clearly shows that my emotional focus is still on the relationship.
However, the Moon is also close to Mars, which made me wonder whether the recent conflict or emotional tension is dominating the situation.
I also noticed that Jupiter isn’t especially strong by essential dignity, while Mercury is in the 8th house, so neither significator seems particularly comfortable.

Where I’m unsure
This is where I would really appreciate help.
Am I correct that there is no perfection between Jupiter and Mercury?
Should I be paying more attention to receptions than to aspects here?
Does the Moon translate light between the significators, or am I misunderstanding that?
Is Mars interfering with the Moon in a meaningful way?
Does Mercury being in the 8th tell us anything important about Carlos’ state or is that reading too psychological for traditional horary?
Is there any prohibition, frustration, translation or collection of light that I’m missing?
My overall impression is that the chart doesn’t give a clear “yes,” but also doesn’t feel like a definitive “no.” It seems to describe two people who are emotionally connected but not currently moving toward each other.
I’d really appreciate hearing how more experienced horary astrologers would judge this chart.
Thank you!
