Has anyone tried this formula with Sabian Symbols? Does it work for you?
• Ascendant asks: "Who am I?" • Descendant asks: "Where am I going?" • IC asks: "How do I best get there?" • Midheaven asks: "Why am I living this lifetime?" Mine made very good sense to me. Very helpful, in fact.
• Ascendant asks: "Who am I?" 14 Leo - A HUMAN SOUL SEEKING OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUTWARD MANIFESTATION. KEYNOTE: The yearning for self-actualization. • Descendant asks: "Where am I going?" 14 Aqua - A TRAIN ENTERING A TUNNEL. KEYNOTE: The ability to short-cut the process of natural evolution by the exercise of will, mental skill and physical self-discipline. • IC asks: "How do I best get there?" 10 Scorpio - A FELLOWSHIP SUPPER REUNITES OLD COMRADES. KEYNOTE: The overtones of human relationships based on a community of work or experiences. • Midheaven asks: "Why am I living this lifetime?" 10 Taurus - A RED CROSS NURSE. KEYNOTE: The compassionate linking of all men. PS. Here's the site I used to look these up: http://www.mindfire.ca/An%20Astrological%20Mandala/An%20Astrological%20Mandal a%20-%20Contents.htm IP: Logged |

Interesting! I relate to mine as well.Ascendant: 17º Gemini: The head of a robust youth changes into that of a mature thinker. -Progression from robust participation in outer things to a realization of deeper realities. Inborn wisdom. Steady growth. IC: 5º Virgo: A man becoming aware of nature spirits and normally unseen spiritual energies. -Constructive imagination as it reveals unconscious realms of being. Creative fantasy. Contact with inner life-energies.
Descendant: 17º Sagittarius: An easter sunrise service. -Spiritual living in conformity to natural law. Coming out of doubt and despair. Unwavering faith in a near higher power.
MC/Draco sun: 5º Pisces: A church bazaar. -Interchange of spirit and understanding on which groups are built. New self-development. Discouragement mastered. Commerce.
May as well include my nodes: NN: 14º Cancer: A very old man facing a vast dark space to the northeast. -Fearlessness; and noble, self-perpetuating strength arising from knowledge. Courage in the facing of spiritual problems. SN: 14º Capricorn: An ancient bas-relief carved in granite remains a witness to a long- forgotten culture. -Man's power to leave permanent records of his achievements. Personal immortality. Fecundation of future by past. Assurance.

Hmmm I am too lazy to list all symbols but I checked both Natal and Progressed and could easily tell that while sifting through the Natal degrees I said to myself "oh, but I know this already. This is easy!" but while looking at the degrees for the progressed chart I said "wow, I am REALLY struggling with these things in my life".Interesting. IP: Logged |

I am confused with what it says -.-AC: (GEMINI 21°): A TUMULTUOUS LABOUR DEMONSTRATION KEYNOTE: The revolutionary impact of mental concepts upon the collective emotions and desires of man. DC: (SAGITTARIUS 21°): A CHILD AND A DOG WEARING BORROWED EYEGLASSES. KEYNOTE: The use of imagination and make-believe in anticipating higher stages of development. IC: (VIRGO 16°): IN THE ZOO, CHILDREN ARE BROUGHT FACE TO FACE WITH AN ORANG-UTANG. KEYNOTE: A direct confrontation with the "wild" power of primordial nature within oneself. MC: (PISCES 16°): IN THE QUIET OF HIS STUDY A CREATIVE INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCES A FLOW OF INSPIRATION. KEYNOTE: Reliance upon one's inner source of inspiration or guidance. But that's some interesting stuff 👍

I just checked my progressed chart's Sabian symbols and that's totally true for me too! Not sure why I didn't think to check them before now. My natal symbols are much nicer than my progressed ones so I'm very glad they're not permanent. IP: Logged |

Cool idea! Ascendant asks: "Who am I?" Within The Depths Of The Earth New Elements Are Being Formed • Descendant asks: "Where am I going?" Aroused Strikers Surround A Factory
• IC asks: "How do I best get there?" A Triangle With Wings
• Midheaven asks: "Why am I living this lifetime?" A Man Revealing To His Students The Foundation Of An Inner Knowledge Upon Which A "New World" Could Be Built
Substituting the angles for their rulers: ASC: Jupiter In The Sanctuary Of An Occult Brotherhood, Newly Initiated Members Are Being Examined And Their Character Tested DESC: Mercury A Flag Bearer In A Battle #IC: Mars A Game Of Cricket MC: Venus A Veiled Prophet Speaks, Seized By The Power Of A God

Yow, Ceri, Mr. Sag IC's ruler, DSC's ruler, MC's ruler AND ASC's traditional ruler have the same Sabians as my Sun and Moon. They square each other exact. ------------------ what goes up must come down, so when you're feeling down, the only way to be is up IP: Logged |

This is the degree of my neptune; it's the ruler of my MC. Plus, your progressed ascendant is conjunct my node axis. Just thought these connections were pretty cool. : ) IP: Logged |

• Ascendant asks: "Who am I?" Libra 7: "A woman feeding chickens and protecting them from the hawks" points to a split awareness: one focus of nurturing and one focus scanning for danger. • Descendant asks: "Where am I going?" Aries 7: "A man successfully expressing himself in two realms at once" Theme: The watcher Inspiration: As you walk through this world, stand outside yourself, as if from above, to watch yourself from time to time. Two realms at once' refers to a simple technique that can bring ease and comfort to many. • IC asks: "How do I best get there?" Capricorn 8 "Birds in the home singing happily" Imagine birds singing happily in their happy little home. Lovely. However, birds singing happily at home are most often caged birds. What does this men for understanding Capricorn 8? In Capricorn 8, we can ask questions of how the caged confinement is working out. It does not have to be negative. There are positive dimensions to confinement such as safety and secure need fulfillment. We can ask about forcing oneself or being forced into a situation , trying too hard to make it fit, make it work. For example, some birds of the wild cannot survive in captivity. Perhaps Capricorn 8 individuals have to be alert to trying to make a losing situation work at the expense of their own independence and growth. We can ask about a tendency to bring cheer, love and care to a domestic situation where there is really no one home to share, receive, or to help build. The nest may be, in many senses, empty. /\ (OMG...that was my childhood home life completely!!) [] • Midheaven asks: "Why am I living this lifetime?" Cancer 8 "Rabbits dressed in clothes and on parade" suggests creatures not in their own attire... think of wearing the clothes that belong to someone else, wearing a situation somewhat unnaturally and being paraded about in it.
