For me it is easier to id generational trends, larger global issues- but bring things down to day to day is very very difficult- this is why i read elsa's blog- she is an expert in the daily grind- and this is probably the hardest part of undersatnding- theory into practice- without feeling overwhelmed. </p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-12399 Sun, 19 Jul 2009 01:25:52 +0000 balletlover70 12399@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>Hello again Kashmiri, actually I believe I was wrong to have such a closed mind <img src="/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/icon_redface.gif" />&nbsp;&nbsp;toward astroids and yods and such. My Mom is&nbsp;a professional astrologer and told me they're (the astroids) really useful tools for correlating the emotions of the moon or something (she was in a hurry, on way 2 party) &amp; that she had met the lady who started it in the 80's&nbsp;don't recall name. So tha'ts the Leo part of me I detest, the closed mindedness @ times. It stinks. It's good to always progress, not regress i guess. I have a lot to learn too! </p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-12346 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 10:55:14 +0000 balletlover70 12346@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>Omg, where to begin?&nbsp;<strong><em>Personally I&nbsp;think &nbsp;some of it seems really useless for me to use &amp; overwhelming to my brain, so I've stored what I like and have left the rest.</em></strong> Not really into astroids, yods, etc. Love transits, progressed, horary, composite charts, natal, aspects, planet, mythology with astrology. Am still learning&nbsp;more of the latter all the time. &nbsp;Some of it I don't care to know!

It's fun to look up the words on this site <a href="http://classiclegendbooks.com/astrology-glossary-01.html" rel="nofollow">http://classiclegendbooks.com/astrology-glossary-01.html</a> But I'm still foggy on how I'm supposed to use them. I'm surprised that &quot;dispositor&quot; (haha, it's being underlined in this text box as if it's spelled wrong. I just realized I've been calling it a &quot;depositor&quot; <img src="/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/icon_redface.gif" />)&nbsp; is in there while there's no entry resembling &quot;dominant&quot; <img src="/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/icon_confused.gif" /></p> <p>The difference between Solar Returns and Progressed Charts is definitely in there though.</p> <p>Vedic Astrology: I did a chart on one of the sites before and all I know is that my Moon Sign is Capricorn. If the Moon stands for the same thing as it does in Western astrology... well then, my confusion overwhelms me at that point. I like having an Aquarius Moon!!! ;)</p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-9751 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 07:17:10 +0000 miss 9751@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>I am unclear about solar return and a progressed chart, are they the same??? The Horary and the Solar Arcs are wayyyy too confusing for my brain to decipher. Oh and I have also been interested in Vedic astrology but I can't make heads or tails of it. </p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-9749 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 06:28:48 +0000 Bretagne 9749@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>Francetta and Dreams- Ive always wondered this and was going to bring this up when the thread was started, but my pride wouldn't let me. I should know this by now, but I don't ha! </p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-9748 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 05:36:00 +0000 Francetta 9748@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>Yeah, I am also hoping someone can define a dominant for us. Does it have anything to do with depositors? Even if the terms are unrelated, I still would like to know how you figure out &quot;rulership&quot; in charts. The concept is often brought up in books and I have no idea what they're talking about!&nbsp; </p> <p>On astro.com, I've been trying to figure out how to read these special sign/depositor diagrams. </p> <p>To find them, go to Free Horoscopes &gt; Extended Chart Selection &gt; Pullen/Astrolog &gt; Sign/depositor graphs.&nbsp;</p> <p>Any insight is appreciated. Here is what mine looks like:</p> <p><img src="http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/tt289/misskyouji/signdepositorgraphkfw.gif" /> </p> <p>&nbsp;<br />I can tell that the glyphs in the circles mean that the planet is in either its own sign or house. Umm, that's about all I've got <img src="/my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/icon_smile.gif" /><br />&nbsp; </p> http://boards.elsaelsa.com/topic/what-is-something-you-cant-get-your-head-around-about-astrology/page/2#post-9744 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 03:56:34 +0000 DreamsAreality 9744@http://boards.elsaelsa.com/ <p>Neith has a blog post about the Gem/Sag thinger {see how technical I am??).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Was reading trying to learn and they say:</p> <p>&quot;If Pluto is part of your natal chart's planetary dominants,&quot;&nbsp; huh?&nbsp; How does one determine what your dominants are??????&nbsp; Is there somewhere/someone/some book to read that speaks English until you are ready to jump to astro-speak?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
