Natal chart of Simone de Beauvoir.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is in reply to a question below, about how all the signs are involved in every chart. I’ve chosen the horoscope of Simone de Beauvoir, on the occasion of discovering today that for the first time since The Second Sex<\/em> was written, there is an accurate, complete translation available in English. That long awaited work came out in April 2010, incorporating lots of missing material, paraphrasing and condensed text. We can do some interpreting of Simone’s chart as we establish the basis of the technical issue involved.<\/p>\n

Notice that the black lines that divide the wheel each go through a sign. Those are house cusps. The ‘address’ of each house cusp is on the outermost wheel, shown as a degree location, a sign and then a division of a degree in arc minutes. Each house has a sign associated with it by being on the cusp; and then there is a second sign with the house when the sign on the cusp ends.<\/p>\n

The houses stay more or less where they are, moving by a few degrees during the course of a day. But the backdrop of the signs is moving constantly, following the turning of the Earth. Think of the houses as being local about local affairs and the signs about more general cosmic affairs. Each chart has a nearly-unique overlay of houses and signs.<\/p>\n

A house is said to be associated with a sign (Aries is on the cusp of the 5th house in this chart) and the ruling planet of that sign becomes the ruling planet of the house. Hence, in this chart, the planet that rules the 5th house is Mars, because Aries is involved.<\/p>\n

The original question pertained to Leo. Would anyone like to take a shot at what Leo is doing in this chart, and what is special about its condition?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
