For astrologers:Lots of configurations in a chart where to start?

Question

I have tried to get someone to look at my chart on several occasions and i think it overwhelms most people. i have two mystic rectangles, two grand trines which are also kites.When you give a reading(not a computer generated one) do you go over each aspect or do you leave some out? Most people pick up on the grand trines and kites but say nothing about the mystic rectangles. i forget about them myself when looking at my chart.

Answer 1

Start?

First I take a blank piece of paper and put categories down, like General, Work/Career, Home/Family/Childhood, Finances, Relationships and Health. As I work through all the stuff in the chart, I note each thing I find under the proper category.

I start with the big three: Sun, Moon & Rising Sign... I pore over them until I get a good handle on the person's underlying structure. Everything else you discover in the chart has to be based on that structure.

I make a quick look through each planet and the sign it is in.

Next, I look at all the aspects, paying attention first to Sun and Moon aspects, and any planets conjunct the angles. And I also look at squares and trines and any patterns like T-Squares, Grand Crosses, Grand Trines, Yods...

Lastly, I add in house information.

As I work my way through, a pattern of checks & balances occurs. You may see 5 things suggesting one way of being, and 2 that contadict that. With experience, you learn what is of "lesser" strength and what is more powerful.

Do I tell every client every little detail? No. I put together an holistic picture of who the person is based on my work. If they want to get into the details of "why" according to astrology, then I will start explaining some planets & signs.

If they are pretty knowledgable about astrology in general, I will tend to explain a little more, since they will understand what I am saying.

PS: Mystic rectangle? This is a new one to me, after 23 years of astrology... and you claim two Grand Trines that are also kites? Are you sure? What orbs are you using? What's your birth info?

Answer 2

I only talk about the most important ones, the ones I feel are most prominent. Then, if the asker in particular likes, I'll venture there as well, if they want to know absolutely everything. But sadly enough, they usually don't :(

Answer 3

why don't you just start with your talent? Ask yourself this question: "Who or what will i become if i refuse to acknowledge the {SUN} god in all of my affairs? If i am here on ground [zero] walking around within the square, then where o where is the great [eye am]
