Marriage Horoscopes and How to Choose THAT Day

By Luc De Jaeger - Cosmic Technologies

Marriage horoscopes are just one of the other inceptional charts that describe the potential of your marriage.
In fact, every (new) beginning, be it a new love, a new job, a move, a birth... can be judged by such inceptional horoscopes.

Just draw a chart for that very moment of beginning, and you'll be able to delineate the innate disposition, development and outcome, out of this moment as a self-developing story.

So, with the marriage charts, set up for the exact moment when the couple exchanges vows and is officially pronounced man and wife, we can see how the marriage will unfold and develop.

You may argue then, that carefully choosing the right moment for such an important event must be most recommended.
It is, BUT, experience shows us that what is not indicated in the birth chart, will not happen.

The Natal Promise

So, if your birth chart shows marital problems, you may choose all possible (fortunate) marriage horoscopes, you just will have marital problems...
It's just part of your current life map and something that you will have to experience.
This kind of 'determinism' may seem hard to understand, but remember for now that this knowledge is grown out of experience and NOT out of reasoning...
Moreover, it's something that can better be explained metaphysically rather than astrologically.
Nevertheless, some rules may apply as to choosing the right or appropriate moment for a marriage.

The Timing

Among astrologers there is some doubt as to the exact moment the marriage is sealed.
Is it the moment of the vows, is it the official pronouncement of man and wife or is it the exchange of rings?
Resolving this question can only be done by looking at the deeper meaning of the ritual of a marriage.
We may ask you, when are you married? When do you feel that you are married, that you are man and wife?
We, at Cosmic Technologies (CosmiTec), are of opinion that you are man and wife, when YOU officially and personally are pronounced Man & Wife.....

So, this will be the moment to erect our marriage horoscopes.

That's why we will only use the time of the legal ceremony when you say have said YES to set up the marriage horoscopes.

Only then, you are officially married!

As marriage horoscopes are delineated as electional horoscopes, some rules are the same.
Often, astrologer think that they can choose a time when the planets indicate harmony and happiness for the marriage horoscopes, giving destiny a helping hand.

Alas.... there is NO guarantee that this time is the most propitious one.
Most couples plan a period (or year) within which they want to get married. But what if a year (or two or three or four,...) later there is a more auspicious period....

And what if the astrologer does not know about some invaluable (and lesser known) astrological techniques to find the most auspicious period?

We already touched this topic on this web site when we mentioned that some astrologers know more than others....
Astrologers should be VERY aware of the responsability they have when trying to choose a fortunate moment in time.
We just want to say it again: don't give your life out of hands. No one astrologer knows it all!
If you want to consult an astrologer to erect some marriage horoscopes, consult 2 or 3 other astrologers!
Together they know more and, in the end YOU too!

Astrological Rules For Choosing a Marriage Horoscope

We will not give any details as to find the best time (hour), since you will almost never be able to pinpoint the pronouncement of man and wife to the minute... BE REALISTIC!
If there is some delay of any kind, are you going to postpone your marriage because the hour might be wrong? You must be silly!

And what if you have found that the best time is in the late afternoon, on a moment there even are no marriage ceremonies organized...

If you love somebody, go for LOVE, not for astrology!
If the day is fortunate, we just hope the hour will be too. And, between..., we hope your natal chart shows some marital bliss too...

Also understand that a marriage is never ever the ultimate goal in life, nor is it the ultimate purpose of life at all!
The ultimate purpose of life here on earth is self-development and relationships (in a wide sense) are just a tool or means to develop "your Self."

That's why your marriage should only be a means to develop your Self and experience what it means 'to be married.'
Now to the most comprehensible theoretical rules for choosing the most auspicious marriage horoscopes (there are numerous more, but we'll only mention the most important ones, not to overwhelm you with information).
The real Marriage Chart, calculated for the exact time of the marriage after the marriage took place, will be discussed in another article.
  • Mind the position of the Moon!
    Some astrologers advice to avoid New and Full Moons.

    New Moons mostly have a hidden influence.

    Things are not that clear and there may be a lack of foresight. Things have NOT developed enough to start, so a marriage on a New Moon is not advisable.

    The Full Moon is more developed and visible to the public.

    There is maximum visibility and because of the opposition between the luminaries, this Lunation has the quality of an encounter (the Moon in the 7th - equal - house counting from the Sun).

    We, at Cosmic Technologies (CosmiTec) think that a Full Moon is a good day for a marriage because it signifies the culmination, the fulfillment of the love relationship and love-cycle.

    So, in our opinion, marriage horoscopes may contain a Full Moon, especially when the Moon is still waxing.

    A void of course Moon may not pose a problem if the Moon is not afflicted.

    However, you should never propose or engage when the Moon is void of course! We refer to our dating page.
  • Avoid (applying) squares or oppositions from the Moon to Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or Pluto.

    These aspects are a burden, causing tragedies, disruptive events, separations etc. in the family.
  • Avoid any planet in the same degree as the Moon's Node.

    According to the fabulous astrologer Ivy M. Goldstein-Jacobson this planet points to a catastrophe, casualty, fatality or tragedy, the more far-reaching when a malefic (Mars or Saturn) is involved.
  • Avoid retrograde personal planets (like Mercury or Venus) or Mars. Retrograde planets let you RE-do, RE-think the matter (the marriage too).

    Retrograde planets may feel RE-stricted, RE-pulsed, RE-fused.

    Retrograde planets almost always signify or represent persons in your life that are hiding, shy or ill (This is a HOT tip!)
    .

    But they can also RE-try and RE-evaluate.

    We, at Cosmic Technologies, can confirm that retrograde planets may cause some irritations, trouble and delay.

    You'll have to wait till the planet turns direct for a more fluent and 'direct' action.
  • Try to avoid any planet in one of the following positions:

    * the 19th degree Scorpio: Serpentis or the accursed degree bringing sorrow. Things are not as they seem.

    * the 9th degree Libra: the position of the Fixed Star Vindemiatrix: the Star of Widowhood.

    * the last degrees of the sign Taurus: the Head of Medusa, especially the 26th and the 29th degree.

    The 26th degree is the position of Algol, the most evil Fixed Star, causing to lose your head.

    The 29th degree Taurus is the position of the Weeping Sisters, causing something to weep about.

    It may (will) bring sadness and endings!

    We, at Cosmic Technologies, have found these degrees to be MOST important, so, indeed, don't neglect them - or better, DO avoid them in marriage horoscopes.

    * the 23th degree Pisces, a degree of sorrow, sadness and unhappiness.

    It's a very disturbing degree that you MUST avoid in the marriage horoscopes at all cost!

    In our experience, this degree has brought lots of tearful events, aggression and fights. Don't make love a battlefield!

    * try to avoid in the marriage horoscopes the day the Moon is in the Via Combusta (15° Libra - 15° Scorpio, except for the safe degrees of 22-24° Libra) because this brings misfortune and illness.
  • avoid a marriage on the so-called "dies atri" or unlucky or ill-omened days.
    These days are said to bring hard luck, trouble, chaotic experiences, delays, restrictions and/or disturbing events.

    The dies atri are:
    * January 2, 3, 4 and 18
    * February 3, 6, 8 and 16
    * March 13, 14, 15 and 29
    * April 19
    * May 3, 10, 22 and 25
    * June 17 and 30
    * July 19, 22 and 28
    * August 1, 17, 21, 22 and 29
    * September 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28
    * October 3, 6 and 11
    * November 12
    * (December has no dies atri)
  • Mind the position of Venus, the planet of love, relationships and sociability because, in marriage horoscopes, this planet becomes more important!
  • Look at the most exact midpoints with an orb of 0°00'-0°01'.

    Exact midpoints are invaluable.

    They are SUPER important because they absolutely OVERPOWER the aspects.

Identifying a great romantic-marital relationship with astrology. soulmates and twinflames – checklist

Our theme here is a great love that has the potential to turn into a great relationship, and viceversa.

A quality relationship has two Pillars, just like Boaz and Jachin, the legendary pillars of Solomon’s Temple, extrapolating it to an enduring temple of love:
  • Compatibility
  • Durability
And these two pillars have the ability to sustain the most important criterion, the Roof: Relational Happiness.

Based on my research so far, conducted on various and multiple examples of such relationships that already stood the test of time, I identified the armature of such a “building”, a must-check list when evaluating the potential of a relationship with astrology. All points on the list are present in long-term quality romantic/marital - type relationships, in various degrees for each point, and having all of them prominent in synastry/composite actually qualifies for an astrological theoretical model of romantic relationships. This model describes the best identified relationships.

There is no point in discussing Romantic Soulmates or Twinflame astrology outside the framework of how love connects with astrology in real life, outside the markers already found in enduring real-life love relationships. Our Romantic Soulmate/ Twinflame, as per the myth, completes us on the highest level of compatibility, so any Soulmate or Twinflame relationship will show at least these markers, and will have at least such a strong astrological tapestry as skeleton.

I will detail each point on the list in subsequent articles. Before proceeding to the list itself, and since this analysis includes major love/marital asteroids, I need to define the list of asteroids and call them LOVE ASTEROIDS (L.A.)
The essential Love Asteroids (L.A.) I use for such analysis:

Union (1585): major asteroid signifying the couple, the principle of relationship and union

Amor (1221): which I identify as one's greatest love in this life

Cupido (763): being stricken by Cupid's arrow, striking your arrow into someone's heart, initial attraction, the act of infatuation; in the context of a solid synastry, a source of a cyclic rejuvenation of “infatuation”

Valentine (447): falling in love, being in love, really in love, the principle of romantic love

Eros/Psyche (433/16): the Eros/Psyche myth, plus Eros viewed as our deep erotic nature, often involving transformation and sometimes with Kundalini rising undertones, and Psyche: the soul, the beauty of our soul, what touches one's soul deeply.

Lust (4386): sexual attraction, general awakening to the joy of living

Lilith - BML (Mean and True BML): passion and desire, sometimes dark-toned relationships (forbidden, compulsive etc.)

Priapus (h22): compulsive desire to merge physically and totally, great physical attraction and desire

Juno (3): one's destined partner/relational style

Vesta (4): the sacred flame, passion, something very valuable to us, what we cherish, fidelity

Ceres: the nurturer, taking care of one another, cozy, warm and plentiful; themes of co-dependency, for good or bad

Alma (390): the soul

Karma (3811): from a synastric point of view, common, shared life (destiny)

Pholus (5145): a turning point; the relationship as a crucial, life-changing event

We first look at the major aspects between planets, angles and Nodes, then the similarity/complementarity between natal charts and in synastry, both described below in THE CONNECTIONS to establish if we have grounds for such a relationship, then we look at asteroids. There's no point in looking at asteroid connections before the planetary analysis, since it may produce false results.

The topic is romantic relationships, but many of these aspects can be found in long-term valuable friendships.


Photo: Love, Alexander Milov
NOTE: Keep in mind that the most important criterion is MUTUALITY.  All the described connections have to be mutual, equally felt on both sides. Mutuality can be mixed, not necessarily an exact, direct DW.

THE CONNECTIONS:

1. Sun/Moon and Venus/Mars aspects between charts. Ideal: DW (double whammy)

Having a Sun/Moon AND a Venus/Mars DW is quite rare, so don't get discouraged. It's a theoretical ideal. Any major aspect between Sun/Moon and Venus/Mars in a synastry is particularly strong.

A DW should include a major aspect, the other could be: 4th harmonic (semisquare, sesquisquare), 5th harmonic (quintile, biquintile), 7th harmonic (septile), 9th harmonic (novile), 11th harmonic (undecile ), 12th harmonic (semisextile).

A combination within the same harmonic is valid too: for example Sun semisquare Moon, Sun sesquisquare Moon or Sun quintile Moon/Sun biquintile Moon, or Sun septile Moon/ Sun biseptile Moon, as it often creates a specific pattern related to that harmonic.

A combination between two esoteric aspects might also work, such as: Sun septile Moon, Sun novile Moon.

However, at least one major aspect between Sun/Moon and Venus/Mars is of great importance, even if we don't have a DW.

It is unlikely that a Twinflame synastry (as theoretical model) could be qualified as such without a Sun/Moon Venus/Mars DW, because the very definition of the Twinflame, applied to astrology, is a major Yin/Yang match between charts. Since these are our primary Yin/Yang planets, they would have to be matched first and foremost, for us to even consider the Twinflame possibility.

2. Planets in aspects with angles, especially conjunct, on both sides; L.A. conjunct angles, also mutually (not necessarily a DW of the same asteroid or planet)

3. IC involvement: planets conjunct/major aspects to IC or aspecting IC ruler

4. Planets in major aspect with Lunar Nodes, either/both of them, especially conjunct; L.A. conjunct nodes; angles conjunct Nodes

5. Squares to Nodes by major planets such as: Saturn, Sun, Moon, the angle axis

6. Vx/Avx axis activated by planets and L.A., on both sides

7. Saturn connections to luminaries in synastry and/or composite (major aspects); as variation, many aspects with Saturn and personal planets on both sides and/or in the composite, although the luminary connection seems to trump all the other combinations and it is incredibly strong.

8. Mutual overlays in Cardinal and Fixed houses and at least some of these houses activated in the composite; overlays in primary and secondary love houses.

9. Aspects and compatibility between love house rulers and angle rulers

10. Complementary (Siamese and Yin/Yang) aspects in natals and synastry

The Siamese aspects are similar aspects in both natal charts, for example both have a Sun/Mars aspect in their natal chart, thus share the same energy, the natal charts mirror each other by similarity. Yin/Yang aspects are two complimentary aspects in the two natal charts, for example one partner has Sun conjunct Mars, the other has Sun conjunct Venus, or Moon conjunct Venus in their natal chart, which creates a mirror by compatibility. The principles of similarity and complementarity apply to various layers of the natal charts, not just aspects, but also the sign/house dynamics. For example, a similarity can be found when one has Venus in Scorpio for instance, and the other has Mars in the 8th, this would create a layer of shared energy, essential to any compatibility.

Compatibility between two people, from a relational point of view, is always given by a right and rich amount of similar (Siamese) and complementary (Yin/Yang) traits.

11. PATTERN COMPLETION in synastry

12. A variation of planets/L.A. and L.A. combinations in close conjunction or DW or involved in regular closed patterns such as the Grand Cross and the Grand Trine or Kite, with a special note to:

Eros/Psyche
Juno/Jupiter
Alma/Juno: alma "soul" juno "partner" = the soulmate
Juno/Psyche: soulmate
Venus/Psyche: soulful love
Venus/Karma: destined love
Union/Alma: soul union
Union/Psyche: soul union
Amor to angles, Sun, Moon, Venus, Neptune, Pluto and other L.A.
Valentine to angles, Sun, Moon, Venus, Neptune, Pluto and other L.A.
Ceres to angles, Sun, Moon, Venus, L.A.
Juno conjunctions/DW/patterns
Vesta conjunctions/DW/patterns

13. Karma contacts: conjunctions/DW/patterns to any of the above

14. Planets conjunct house cusps in overlays, on both sides.

Marriage Aspects in Synastry

by Nadia Gilchrist

There are only a few aspects between partners that encourage potential matrimony, and even then, they can also indicate other types of commitment. In the context of this article, “marriage” refers to a mutual decision to formalize a romantic commitment in whatever spiritual or social context is meaningful. Note that all these synastry aspects can be applied to straight or same-sex couples.

Saturn

Before a couple even goes near the idea of wedlock, there must be at least one Saturn connection in their synastry. Saturn interaspects can be part of any long-term relationship (co-workers, friends, parent/child), but they are absolutely essential for commitment between two people. Saturn contacts are the cement that stabilize a relationship, so marriage can be built upon it.

If your partner’s Saturn hits your relationship planets (Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars) or your angles (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th House cusps) with a hard aspect, they’ll feel a baseline responsibility to you. This sense of responsibility must be there before your partner can contemplate a long-term relationship. Trines and sextiles are weaker, but if they occur in multiples (your partner’s Saturn trines your Sun and Venus) there can still be enough glue to hold the two of you together. The feeling of commitment that Saturn creates goes both ways, but the Saturn person will feel the primary responsibility.

Juno

This “marriage asteroid” represents how someone relates to a partner in the context of a committed union.  If your planet aspects your partner’s Juno, they will feel the urge to formalize the relationship. Conjunctions are strongest, although oppositions and squares can do the trick as well. Trines and sextiles are less pronounced, but can still work if they go both ways (your Juno and their Juno trines or sextiles mutual planets).

For example, your lover has Juno in Virgo. They are looking for a very specific (Virgo) type of partner: someone who will join them as they tinker with, and improve, the relationship. Your Sun conjuncts their Juno. This means that your external expression of purpose and ego perfectly matches what the Juno person is looking for in a partner. Both of you will feel  that you can work (Virgo) together to create a formal union, although the Juno person will feel this most strongly.

The Sun and Moon

Your Sun conjunct your partner’s Moon (or vice versa) is the gold standard for potential marriage aspects. The Sun person’s conscious will (male energy) unites with, and is supported by, the Moon person’s emotions (female energy). There is an instinctive sense of belonging, because you and your lover complement each other at a primary level. The Sun person will usually dominate (this is true for straight and same-sex couples). For sign specific examples, check out the articles on Sun/Moon compatibility. The powerful connection created by a Sun/Moon aspect is mutual.

Sun/Moon oppositions can also create a powerful urge for marriage (you and your partner balance out each other). Squares create strong attraction, but the tension can be too jarring for settling into a long-term union. Trines and sextiles create a nice flow of energy, but aren’t strong enough (by themselves) to push the relationship forward.

The Sun/Moon Midpoint

This is the mathematical midpoint between the natal Sun and Moon. It has been referred to as the “inner marriage” between a person’s male and female energy — the union of their external purpose and internal needs. If your planet conjuncts or opposes this midpoint, you are the external manifestation of that need.

For example, your Mars conjuncts your partner’s midpoint. Through the expression of your initiative, ambition and sexuality (Mars), you are a prompt for the midpoint person. Even though your Mars energy may be aggressive, the way you express it just seems to click with your partner’s inner puzzle. When working with any midpoint contacts, only the hard aspects (squares, oppositions and conjunctions) are considered. Midpoint contacts tend to be one way, with the midpoint person feeling the effects.

The 7th House

If your planet activates your partner’s 7th House of committed relationships, they will view you as their ideal partner. If there are other aspects (in the house person’s chart) that support a desire for formal union, they may also see you as a potential spouse. A conjunction from your planet to their 7th House cusp is most powerful, but your planets anywhere in their 7th House will work. If your Jupiter falls in their 7th, your beliefs will boost their faith in committed partnerships; you’ll make the idea (of commitment to you) seem good. If your Venus activates their 7th House, the way you express love will stir your partner’s admiration, and will blend with their view of relationships. 7th House overlays are felt primarily by the house person.

Note that if only your outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) are activating your lover’s 7th House, there will need to be some other marriage aspects between the two of you. Outer planet contacts can be powerful, but they seem to stir up issues (on the house person’s side) that reach beyond the day-to-day rhythms of a romantic relationship. It’s almost too “big picture” to function on a personal level.

As always, context is everything. The above contacts increase the chances for marriage, providing both parties have the natal characteristics that indicate the desire for marriage. Although the connections described above don’t guarantee a trip to the altar (or whatever place is chosen for the ceremony), they certainly increase the odds that two people will want to take that step.

Marriage indicators in synastry

Determining marriage from a synastry chart can be challenging. Sometimes, “obvious” marriage indicators (i.e. planets in each other’s 7th house) fail to predict a couple’s future. After studying several synastry charts of married/long-lasting couples, there were a few aspects which stood out to me.

Squares to the North Node: These aspects are said to be indicators of star-crossed lovers. The nodal axis represents our life’s path: the South Node represents “where we’ve been,” while the North Node represents “where we’re going.” Squares to this axis in synastry indicate an instant feeling of familiarity and attraction to one another. It may be difficult for each person to resist the pull of the relationship. The planet person may be part of an unresolved issue the North Node is carrying from the past, and must resolve in this life.

Some examples:

  • Angelina Jolie’s Moon and Mars square Brad Pitt’s North Node
  • Paul Newman’s Sun squares Joanne Woodward’s North Node, and Joanne’s MC squares Paul’s North Node
  • Victoria Beckham’s Moon squares David’s North Node, Victoria’s North Node squares David’s vertex
  • Linda McCartney’s North Node squares Paul McCartney’s Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter
  • Cash Warren’s ascendant is square Jessica Alba’s North Node
  • Prince William’s Pluto squares Kate Middleton’s North Node, Kate’s Mars squares Will’s North Node
  • Julia Roberts’ Mars squares Danny Morder’s North Node
  • Oprah’s North Node squares Stedman’s Jupiter
  • Bill Clinton’s Sun squares Hillary’s North Node
  • Frank Sinatra’s North Node squares Nancy Sinatra’s Moon and Jupiter
  • Ava Gardner’s North Node squares Frank Sinatra’s Sun, Frank’s Jupiter squares Ava’s North Node

Planets in conjunction or opposition to another’s Vertex: The Vertex acts like a second Ascendant, while the anti-Vertex is like a second Descendant. The Vertex is often referred to as our “point of fate.” As a result, when someone’s planet or point conjuncts your Vertex or anti-Vertex, you feel drawn towards this person. The relationship feels fated, and can indeed change your life. You feel destined to be together, and this feeling can easily last a lifetime. One person’s North Node conjunct or opposite another person’s Vertex are apparently very common aspects to find among married partners.

Some examples:

  • Angelina’s Venus/Ascendant conjunct Brad’s Vertex, Brad’s Ascendant conjuncts Angelina’s Vertex
  • Frank Sinatra’s Vertex opposes Nancy Sinatra’s Venus, Nancy’s Vertex opposes Frank’s Part of Fortune
  • Paul Newman’s Moon conjuncts Joanne Woodward’s anti-Vertex; Joanne’s Moon and Mars conjunct Paul’s Vertex. Their Vertexes are conjunct.
  • Victoria Beckham’s anti-Vertex is conjunct David Beckham’s Mercury and opposite North Node.
  • Paul McCartney’s Vertex is conjunct Linda’s South Node
  • Prince William’s Vertex opposite Kate’s Venus
  • Julia Roberts’ North Node is conjunct Danny Morder’s anti-Vertex; Julia’s anti-Vertex is conjunct Danny’s Sun and Mercury. In addition, Danny’s North Node is conjunct Julia’s anti-Vertex
  • Oprah’s Mars conjuncts Stedman’s Vertex, Stedman’s Neptune is conjunct Oprah’s Vertex
  • Hillary Clinton’s Vertex is opposite Bill Clinton’s Moon

Part of Fortune: I was surprised to see how often conjunctions and oppositions of one person’s planets or points to another person’s Part of Fortune occurred in the charts of married couples!  The Part of Fortune (POF) is the synthesis of a person’s Ascendant, Sun, and Moon, so perhaps it should not be so surprising. The POF is a point that indicates good fortune. When another person’s planets or points conjunct or oppose your POF, they will likely help you increase your wealth and happiness, and achieve your goals. According to Robert Hand, the POF is also an indicator of the physical body and its relationships with the social world. Thus, it makes sense that POF aspects in synastry are often found in the synastry charts of married couples.

  • Joanne Woodwards’s POF is conjunct Paul Newman’s Sun
  • David Beckham’s Sun is conjunct Victoria’s POF, and David’s POF is conjunct Victoria’s Mars and Saturn
  • Paul McCartney’s POF is conjunct Linda’s Moon and Venus
  • Cash Warren’s POF is conjunct Jessica Alba’s Jupiter/Saturn conjunction
  • Prince William’s POF is opposite Kate Middleton’s POF, Kate’s POF is conjunct Wills’ North Node
  • Danny Morder’s POF is conjunct Julia Roberts’ Mercury, Danny’s Vertex is conjunct Julia’s POF
  • Stedman’s POF is conjunct Oprah’s Jupiter, Oprah’s POF is conjunct Stedman’s Sun, Mercury, and North Node
  • John Lennon’s POF is conjunct Yoko Ono’s POF
  • Hillary Clinton’s POF is opposite Bill’s Mercury and Saturn
  • Frank Sinatra’s POF is conjunct Nancy’s Anti-Vertex
  • Ava Gardner’s POF is opposite Frank Sinatra’s Sun and Mercury

Sun-Venus or Venus-Venus synastry aspects: Sun-Venus contacts in synastry are highly touted by astrologers, and for good reason! When this aspect appears in synastry, the couple feels affection and love for one another. If these contacts do not show up in synastry, Venus-Venus contacts can be substituted. When one person’s Venus contacts another person’s Venus, your love styles are similar. You easily get along, and instinctively know how the other person wants to be loved. The conjunction and opposition are most potent, and the trine and sextile are powerful, as well. These aspects indicate instant love and affection for one another, as well as a feeling of joy when you are together. These aspects can indicate a love that lasts forever. When this aspect is mutual, the love is even stronger.

  • Angelina’s Venus opposes Brad’s Venus
  • Paul Newman’s Venus sextiles Joanne’s Venus
  • David Beckham and Victoria Beckham have a Venus/Sun sextile double whammy
  • Paul McCartney’s Venus is opposite Linda’s Venus
  • Prince William’s Venus trines Kate’s sun, Kate’s Venus biquitiles Wills’ Sun
  • Danny Morder and Julia Roberts have a Sun/Venus bi-quintile double whammy
  • Stedman’s Venus is sextile Oprah’s Sun
  • John Lennon’s Venus is opposite Yoko’s Sun, Yoko’s Venus trines John’s Sun
  • Frank Sinatra’s Venus squares Nancy Sinatra’s Sun, Frank’s Sun squares Nancy’s Venus

Venus/Saturn Aspects : Saturn aspects in synastry are described as « relationship glue ». Saturn is the planet of commitment, while Venus is the planet of Love. As such, couples who have strong Venus-Saturn aspects (especially double-whammies!) in their Synastry charts have little problem committing to each other. These relationships are usually long-lasting.

  • Joanne Woodward’s Saturn conjuncts Paul Newman’s Venus, Paul’s Saturn trines Joanne’s Venus
  • Victoria Beckham’s Saturn is conjunct David’s Venus, David’s Saturn is trine Victoria’s Venus
  • Cash Warren’s Saturn trines Jessica Alba’s Venus, and her Saturn sextiles Cash’s Venus
  • Julia Roberts’s Saturn conjuncts Danny Morder’s Venus, Danny’s Saturn quincunxes Julia’s Venus
  • Oprah’s Saturn quincunxes Stedman’s Venus, Stedman’s Saturn trines Oprah’s Venus
  • John Lennon’s Saturn squares Yoko Ono’s Venus
  • Ava Gardner’s Saturn squares Frank’s Venus

Choosing a Wedding Date

by April Elliott Kent


The Rules


Choosing the Date


NO VENUS Rx!
Good aspect Sun/Moon
Moon must NOT be void of course.
Moon MUST have good final aspect before going V.O.C.
Avoid Sun approaching square or opposition to Saturn.
NO MERCURY Rx!
Venus should apply to good aspect, or be applied to by Moon or Mercury. Avoid hard aspects from Venus to malefics.Avoid moon in Aries, Scorpio, or Capricorn.
Avoid Venus in Aries, Virgo, or Scorpio.
Good aspect Venus/Mars
Moon waxing (between New Moon and Full Moon) is best, but in my opinion, not as important as a good Moon/Sun aspect.
Good applying Saturn aspect


Choosing the Time


Ruler of 1st MUST NOT be in hard aspect to ruler of 7th house
Keep malefics (Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) out of 7th
Keep Uranus out of 7th and out of adverse aspect with ruler of 7th, Venus, or planet in 7th.
Moon in 7th house or angular; or, Moon applying to beneficial planet in 7th (avoid Moon in 6/12).
Keep malefics off angles if at all possible
Ascendant: no fewer than 3, no more than 27 degrees rising
Fixed Ascendant is desirable
Moon good aspect to rulers of 4th and 10th

A man and a woman decide to get married, and in the first flush of excitement they might do a number of things: call everyone they know, make a pilgrimage to the newstand to stock up on five-pound bridal magazines, start fighting over the kind of wedding they'll have. But what an astrologer or serious student of astrology does as soon as the question has been popped is pretty much what my spouse and I did: We made a beeline to my astrology teacher to choose an astrologically appropriate day to tie the knot.

In my years as a professional astrologer, I've been honored to perform the same service for a number of my clients. It's work I've always enjoyed, much the same way that in a previous career incarnation I always enjoyed singing at weddings. After all, I was born with the moon in the seventh house of marriage: I dig weddings, marriage, love, all that.

But one of the main reasons I've always enjoyed choosing wedding dates for people is that it's so straightforward. The rules are simple and clear. Anyone with the ability to read an ephemeris can do it -- which I intend to prove to you in this tutorial.

Why bother at all choosing an astrologically fabulous date/time for a wedding? The premise of electional astrology is that a marriage, business venture, presidency, or what have you begins at a specific moment, and that within that moment are the seeds of how subsequent events will unfold. It's the same idea as casting a chart for the moment of a person's birth and assuming it will tell us something about how the person's life and character might unfold.

In electional astrology we determine (1) what moment something will truly begin; in a marriage, it's that moment in the wedding ceremony where the couple says "I Do"; and (2) what astrological factors correspond to making this particular thing unfold to maximum benefit of all involved. Then a date and time are chosen that will provide the greatest number of these astrological factors.

For the record, I rarely use electional astrology in my own life. I think it's best used for events of tremendous importance (like getting married, planning important surgery, buying a house), and I would feel kind of frivolous trying to choose the most adventageous time to, say, shop for produce. It's electional astrology of that kind that tends to make astrology and its devotees appear a bit--well, silly.

No Perfect Date

We might as well get clear about one thing before we go any further: Just as there are no perfect marriages, there are no perfect wedding dates. And even if there were, no one would use them because they would inevitable fall on a Wednesday afternoon in March. So, using astrology to choose a date for your wedding will be terrific practice in employing one of marriage's most essential skills: compromise.

Begin with Mercury & Venus

It's the Northern Hemisphere--specifically, say, Los Angeles-- so spring involves late March through early June. Glancing at the Pocket Astrologer (an indispensible guide) you notice that Mercury, ruler of contracts, will be direct during this period until June 3, when it turns retrograde (appears to be moving backwards). This is not terrific symbolism for a marriage, which is after all a contract, as it suggests that in time one might come to have second thoughts about the whole thing and back out. One exception is a second marriage, when Mercury retrograde's symbolism of "re-doing" can actually be quite appropriate.

Venus, ruler of marriage, will be retrograde from March 8 through April 19, 2001. One of the cardinal rules of wedding electionals is to avoid Venus retrograde if humanly possible. And ideally you would like to see Venus in a sign it works well in; say, Taurus, Libra, or Pisces. Likewise, you would avoid dates when Venus is in signs it doesn't work all that well in, such as Aries, Scorpio, or Virgo. Sadly, we do not have this luxury between April 21 through June 2, 2001. Venus in Aries is pretty much what we're working with. Comfort yourself with the knowledge that my own wedding took place when Venus was in Aries, and we're getting along famously almost eight years later. It's not the end of the world, and we can work to strengthen Venus in the final chart by placing it in a strong house of the chart.

By avoiding Mercury and Venus retrograde, you've narrowed down the acceptable date range to Saturday, April 21 through Saturday, June 2, 2001.

NOTE: In the years since I wrote this tutorial, I've adjusted my process to give MUCH more emphasis to a good approaching aspect between the Sun and Moon. I still avoid the Moon in Scorpio and Capricorn when at all possible, but I'll take a Moon in Aries in good aspect to the Sun over a Moon in Taurus square the Sun any day! (AEK, 2/07)

The Moon

Astrologically, the Moon in strongest in Taurus and Cancer. It's less happy in Aries, Scorpio, and Capricorn. So right off the bat we'll eliminate dates when the moon is in Aries, Scorpio or Capricorn.

Next we need to eliminate times when the Moon is Void of Course. The symbolism of a Void of Course moon is that "the matter comes to nothing;" this might mean anything from unforseen circumstances preventing the wedding from taking place as planned, and if it does take place the couple may have a sense of being ineffectual and unable to formulate or reach mutual goals.

Now, let me say this about Saturday: it's named after Saturn. In many ways that's an appropriate symbolism for the institution of marriage. But it's a pretty heavy, difficult symbol, and can manifest in distinctly unpleasant ways such as feeling restricted or oppressed. I'm not saying no one should get married on Saturday. But Friday is ruled by Venus, and Sunday is ruled by the Sun; either of these days have a built-in vibe that's a lot more upbeat than Saturn's-day.

A moon in Libra is not the best of moons, but Libra does rule marriage, after all.

The Moon's Last Aspect

The next factor for you to consider is the aspects the Moon will make before it leaves its sign. Why is this important? Because a wedding chart will symbolically continue to unfold (as we follow progressions in a natal chart) as long as the marriage lasts...and often afterward! The moon, as the fastest moving body in the wedding chart, symbolizes how things will progress on a day to day level in the marriage. If the moon will make a number of fractious aspects between the time of the wedding and the time the moon enters a new sign, what we end up with is a marriage full of day to day disruption that can be quite hard on the nerves, and subsequently undermine the relationship.

These dates were chosen as most beneficial based on:

Mercury and Venus direct
The Moon strong by sign
The Moon positive by aspect
No fatal additional considerations.

Having narrowed down the dates, it's time to consider the time of day.

Common sense tells us a ceremony that takes place around 7:00 p.m. will give guests time to arrive and still wind up early enough for a decent reception. Since we run the chart for the moment the couple says "I Do", let's run the chart for 7:30 to allow time for the preamble to the vows.

Well, there are a few nice things about this chart. A fixed sign on the ascendant can be a good sign for longevity and tenaciousness in the marriage. The Sun is setting, exactly conjunct the seventh house cusp, bringing tremendous vitality and emphasis to the marriage. Venus is in the 5th house, which can be wonderfully affectionate and is a particularly strong placement if the couple hopes to have children. The Moon is past its square to Venus and applying to a nice trine with the Ascendant.

But there are a few real problems. I don't care for Uranus in the 4th house of home and roots; unless both the prospective bride and groom have very strong 4th house/Uranus natal signatures -- such as Uranus in the natal 4th, Aquarius ruling the 4th, Moon in Aquarius, Moon square, conjunct, or opposed Uranus -- I would really hesitate to give them Uranus in the 4th house.

Saturn in the 7th is a no-no, and it's already somewhat troublesome at 0 degrees of a sign. However, it would be easy to place Saturn in the 8th house by moving the time of the vows up slightly. And given so many couples have problems with money and communication, I'm dismayed by seeing both Mars/Pluto in the 2nd house and Neptune in the 3rd.


Libra rising is kind of nice for a wedding chart, and Venus, though technically in the 6th, is pretty darn close to that 7th house cusp. Plus you get the Moon on the Midheaven.

Mars is pretty close to the 4th house cusp, giving it a bit more oomph than I like to see in a wedding chart. And Saturn rules the 4th. Plus Moon and Venus are square each other, and the Moon applies to a square to the Ascendant.


I was feeling pretty good about this chart -- Sun in the cheery 9th house, Jupiter elevated, Venus in the 7th house -- until I got down to the bottom and saw (aaaarrrgggghhhh!) Pluto and Mars in the 4th house!! No can do; the 4th house is too important as the descriptor of all that is cozy and domestic in a marriage to put those particular landmines in there. Back to the drawing board.

Our next move is to get Uranus out of the 7th.

A golden rule of electional astrology is that the chart must have between 3 and 27 degrees of a sign on the Ascendant; this one has 28 Cancer rising. That could easily be tweaked, but we have another problem: Neptune is in the 7th house. With a wedding chart, we will not brook anything but lovely, happy planets in the 7th house. Let's get Neptune out of the 7th.

Neptune is out of the 7th house. The Moon is right on the Ascendant, which is kind of nice. NI'm not crazy about Saturn ruling the 7th house, especially Saturn at 0 degrees of a sign. But at least the Moon (ruler of the 1st) is not in poor aspect to Saturn (ruler of the 7th), which is another rule of a wedding electional, plus Saturn receives a nice sextile from Venus. In an ideal world, would be put Capricorn on the 7th house cusp? We would not, and I would be questioning this couple very, very closely about Saturn issues before bestowing this chart on them.

So it's not the chart of my dreams, but (1) the Moon is very strong by sign, by placement, by aspect; (2) Venus is conjunct the Midheaven and sextile Saturn (for longevity); (3) all the big-time malefics are out of the angular houses; (4) 1st and 7th house rulers are not in bad aspect, and though Venus and Mars (ruler of male/female) are technically square, it's an out-of-sign separating square; (5) Sun and Moon (other symbols of male/female) are in a nice sextile to each other.

Backing up to 12:39 pm, Pluto and Mars are both out of the 4th house. In fact, it's a pretty nice chart...except for Uranus, the Great Disruptor, in the house of marital accord.

Marriage Rules - Electional Chart

By Marion March, 1998

When calculating the time, remember the marriage starts with the first "I do!"

1. There should be no squares from the Moon and it should not be void of course. A waxing Moon (between the New and Full Moon) is better than a waning one (between the Full and New Moon).

2. Fixed signs rising are best when you want a long lasting relationship. Next are the Cardinal signs, especially Libra (relationship oriented), Capricorn (the need for any venture to be successful) and Cancer (nurturing). Aries and Mutable signs can indicate very short-lived situations.

3. A relationship usually works well when the ruler of the Ascendant (1st) and Descendant (7th) are in good aspect to each other, since they represent the two parties in question.

4. Try to have the Sun and Moon (portraying the groom and bride) in good aspect to each other.

5. Because Saturn can bring on limits or delays, it should not be placed in an angular house. It fares best in cadent (3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th) houses or, if that is not possible, put it in one of the succedent (2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th) houses. If possible, avoid all harsh applying aspects to Saturn, including the conjunctions. When the aspect becomes exact, there could be misunderstandings, feelings of neglect or sadness of some kind.

6. If you want the relationship to proceed in a pleasant fashion, keep Uranus out of the angular houses, especially the 1st and 7th.

7. The luminaries (Sun and Moon), as well as Venus and Jupiter (the benefics), should be above the horizon, if possible. Elevated planets are more visible and seem to bring a certain ease to the elected venture.

8. Try to have Venus (woman) and Mars (man) in harmonious aspect to each other, also Venus (love and partnership) to the Ascendant/Descendant (the couple); Jupiter (luck and growth) to the Ascendant/Descendant, the Moon (feelings) to Venus (harmony). In other words, a strong, well aspected Venus is very beneficial.

9. Avoid the Moon in Scorpio where it is in its fall and where it can be secretive and possessive, not exactly conducive to a happy relationship. A Libra Moon, on the other hand, works quite well in a marriage Electional chart since it seeks harmony and balance.  Strong and well matched couples seem to do well with the Moon in Leo.

10. The Sun or Moon approaching a square or opposition to Uranus may indicate a separation or divorce when the aspect becomes exact.

11. A retrograde Venus is not advised for any marriage chart. Since Venus only retrogrades for about 40 days every two years, it is fairly easy to avoid.

One should avoid in Marriage Chart


We regard a marriage as being tragic if at least one of the spouses dies a tragic and untimely death while they were married. An example of such a marriage would be that of John Kennedy, Jr. and Carolyn Bassette.

We regard a marriage as being a heartbreak if the spouses divorce and at least one of them suffers a gut-wrenching heartbreak. An example of a heartbreak marriage would be that of Princess Diana and Prince Charles. Although Diana died in a tragic and untimely manner, she was not married at the time so we would regard her marriage as a heartbreaking one, and her life as a tragic one.

The Magi Society's research has uncovered the astrological signs of tragic and heartbreak marriages; we have learned that the astrological warnings of a tragic marriage are different from those of a heartbreak marriage. On this website, we will be teaching the astrology of both of these types of marriages.

We will begin by teaching the astrology of tragic marriages because they are the worst kind - the reason is that when someone dies in a marriage, that person does not have another chance at happiness.

THE ASTROLOGY OF TRAGIC MARRIAGES

After completing research on over 60 thousand marriages, we have found that virtually all tragic marriages have a very similar type of Planetary Geometry, which we call HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY.

The PLANETARY GEOMETRY of a chart is any line (or lines), shape, or pattern that is formed when connecting lines are drawn between the planets that are in "meaningful" alignment at the time of the chart.

Hazardous Planetary Geometry is Planetary Geometry where there is a "dominance of Turbulent Angles made by Saturn."

IN A MARRIAGE CHART, TURBULENT ANGLES BY SATURN CAN CREATE HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY.

For thousands of years, and ever since the very birth of astrology, astrologers realized that Saturn was different from any of the other planets primarily because Saturn was associated with problems. For this reason, astrologers viewed Saturn as a MALEFIC.

Then beginning about 1925 and for the next 75 years or so, many astrologers tried to rewrite astrology by pretending that Saturn was not a malefic. Such astrologers are referred to as Saturn Revisionists.

The Saturn Revisionists tell us and try to convince us that transits made by Saturn are good because they think Saturn is the "teacher." They also claim that Saturn aspects are good and we should try to include them when selecting a day to do something important, like getting married.

The Saturn Revisionists are completely wrong about this.

In our third book, we explained that all aspects in the birth chart of a human being are gifts of special talents from God. This includes Saturn aspects.

BUT SATURN IS A PROBLEM EVERYWHERE ELSE.

For example, transits by Saturn are all bad, even the ones made at 120 degrees and zero degrees.

And all Saturn aspects that occur in a Marriage Chart are signs of problems.

Since there are so many angles and planets for Saturn to make an aspect, there is almost always a Saturn Aspect on any given day. But some Saturn Aspects are much worse than others for a marriage.

In a Marriage Chart, the worst Saturn Aspects are ones that Saturn makes to Chiron and the Sun. This is because in a Marriage Chart, the Sun represents the actual marriage itself, and because Chiron rules marriages.

If a marriage takes place on a day when Saturn makes a Turbulent Angle to both the Sun and Chiron, Saturn creates HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY and the marriage can be very troublesome.

Three ingredients necessary for a happy and long-live marriage


As a result of the research we recently concluded by analyzing the astrology of 60 thousand marriages, we discovered three astrological conditions that are highly beneficial to a marriage. A Magical Marriage can be attained only if all three of the astrological conditions exist in the marriage. Here are the three necessary astrological ingredients for a Magical Marriage:

1. Mutual True Love

2. Marrying during an Ideal Astrological Day

3. Marrying when both spouses are having Cinderella Transits





Because of our recent discoveries in the astrology of love and marriages, it is now finally possible to use astrology to help us attain all three.



Below are details about all three of these Magical ingredients.





THE FIRST INGREDIENT NECESSARY FOR A MAGICAL MARRIAGE IS

MUTUAL TRUE LOVE



Anyone who has an iota of wisdom knows that MUTUAL TRUE LOVE is the most important ingredient for a Magical Marriage. But the problem is that most of us are FOOLED into thinking mutual love exists even when it does not. We probably all have had the experience of thinking we were in love and that we were also loved in return, only to end up finding out we were wrong. It used to be that astrology could not help us know if mutual love could develop between two persons. But Magi Astrology can help us know this. After concluding a study of over 50 thousand love unions in 1998, the Magi Society discovered exactly what are the most reliable astrological indicators of mutual true love. Magi Astrology also can tell us the most likely outcome of any relationship. By learning and using Magi Astrology, you can finally answer questions such as:

# What is the most likely outcome of this relationship?

# Will you marry this person or someone else?

# If the two of you marry, will the marriage be lifelong and happy? Or would it result in heartbreak?

Unless a man and woman form CINDERELLA LINKAGES, it is highly unlikely that they can be in love with each other. A Cinderella Linkage is an interaspect formed between one person's Chiron and another person's Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto (and to a lesser degree the Sun), where the interaspect is a conjunction, trine, quincunx, parallel or contra-parallel.

THE SECOND INGREDIENT NECESSARY FOR A MAGICAL MARRIAGE IS

TO MARRY DURING AN IDEAL ASTROLOGICAL DAY



As a result of our research into the astrology of 60 thousand marriages, we made the following two fascinating and extraordinarily helpful discoveries:





Discovery One:



Even if two persons are very much in love at the time when they marry, if the couple is unfortunate enough to marry on a TURBULENT ASTROLOGICAL DAY, their love for each other will most likely fade and the marriage will most likely fail.



A Turbulent Astrological Day is a day when there is an overwhelming amount of Turbulent Angles made by the planets, especially Saturn. When this website is fairly complete by the end of 2002, it will provide you with many examples of marriages that took place during Turbulent Astrological Days so you will learn exactly what a Turbulent Astrological Day is.



Women's magazines give a lot of advice about marriages and the causes of divorce. But the advice we get from women's magazines about why marriages end in divorce is incomplete. Most magazines tell us that the majority of divorces are a result of infidelity, or a lack of financial security, or the fact the couple drifted apart and became very different from the way they were when they were wed, or because there is no longer mutual love. But those magazines do not deal with the WHY.



Ultimately, the above "reasons" are really only SYMPTOMS of the fact the couple married during a Turbulent Astrological Time. We believe that the biggest REASON for failed marriages is that couples get married on the wrong day. Turbulent Astrological Days are bad days to get married. When a couple marries, the act of marrying creates their Marriage Chart, which is the astrological chart of the time they marry. If a couple marries on a bad astrological day, it creates a bad Marriage Chart and the chances of an ultimate divorce are high. So high that the chances of divorce are intolerably high.



We believe the very act of MARRYING DURING A TURBULENT ASTROLOGICAL DAY ACTUALLY CREATES PROBLEMS IN THE MARRIAGE.



But here is the good news: If we marry on a good astrological day, our marriage will be good no matter how bad the odds are against us. This is our second discovery.





Discovery Two:



The power and importance of the Marriage Chart is so great and so Magical that even if two persons seem to have everything stacked against them, if they marry on an astrologically Magical day, their marriage can be Magical.



There are countless examples of this.



We have all heard of "rags-to-riches" stories and many of us dream of being so lucky. But guess what? It was not luck at all but the Magical stars. If you trace true life Cinderella stories step by step, most "rags-to-riches" stories are really about two average souls who were blessed enough to have fallen in love and gotten married on a Magical Astrological Day and AFTERWARDS against all odds became successful.



Everyone agrees about the importance of choosing the right person to marry. But believe it or not, it is just as important that we also choose the best time to marry.



Because love is the way it is, we cannot always choose whom we love and marry; our hearts sometimes just give us no choice. This fact makes it even more important that we do choose what we have the ability to choose, which is the best time to marry.



If we make the right choice, and marry on the right day, we have a wonderful chance of having a Magical Marriage.



You are probably asking, "How do we know what astrological conditions are the right ones for us to marry?" The answer is that it is the Planetary Geometry of the wedding day that is the key to a Magical Marriage. If we marry on a day that has Magical Planetary Geometry, our marriage will be Magical. By the time we complete this website by the end of 2002, we will provide you with dozens of examples of marriages that occurred during Magical Planetary Geometry. This way, you would know how to recognize it when it occurs for you and marry during your ideal astrological time.



ASTROLOGY IS A BENEVOLENT DESIGN OF A BENEVOLENT PROVIDENCE



The Magi Society believes that a Benevolent Providence designed astrology and He loves all of us. We believe God is romantic beyond what is humanly possible and smiles on true love. Because Providence loves us so much, He would like to give all of us who are in love the best wedding gift of all - that of a Magical Marriage. Because God loves us and wants us all to be happily married, He gave all of us the ability to have a Magical Marriage by designing astrology so that we can use it to help our marriage to be Magical.



Through the Benevolent Design of astrology, God has made a Magical Marriage within our reach. What we need to do is study the language of the stars and learn how to choose a Magical Day to marry the person we love. We created this website so you can learn how to harness the power of the stars God gave us to help you fulfill your dreams.



We all know someone who has had the following type of experience:

The person we know was in love and the love appeared to be mutual. The couple decides to make a lifelong romantic commitment to each other by getting married and they actually decide on a date to marry. But nothing works for the date they had chosen - the caterers or banquet halls they want are all booked on their chosen date. One or more of their parents cannot attend on the date they had chosen. To top it off, they cannot even hire a decent wedding photographer on that date. The result is that the couple decides to change the date of their marriage. The bride had always dreamed of a big wedding so they ended up planning their wedding around the schedule of the caterer, the photographer, and their parents.

Guess what? They should have married on the date they originally chose. That day was much better astrologically for them and the day of the Big Wedding was not so good.

Far too often, a wedding date is set for the wrong reasons like the ones above.

What they should have done was to hold a simple matrimonial ceremony on a date chosen by using Magi Astrology, and then redo their vows in a Big Wedding ceremony with the parents, the banquet, etc. You see, their Marriage Chart is the chart of the FIRST time they exchanged vows, and not the second time.

The only criteria for a wedding date should be that the day must be an ideal astrological day to marry. We already learned we should only marry someone we love and we should do so only on a day that has Magical Planetary Geometry. But those are only two of the ingredients needed to have a Magical Marriage. There is a third.

The third ingredient for a Magical Marriage is to be married on a day when both the man and woman are having a Cinderella Transit. In order to have a Magical Marriage, you and your spouse must both be having Cinderella Transits when you marry.

There are two types of ways for a Cinderella Transit to occur:

First: A Cinderella Transit occurs whenever transiting Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto (and to a lesser degree the Sun) is making a Magical Angle to the natal Chiron.

Second: A Cinderella Transit occurs whenever transiting Chiron makes a Magical Angle to natal Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto.

If you marry during one of your Cinderella Transits, it means that you form a Cinderella Linkage to your Marriage Chart. This also means you have a Golden Linkage to your Marriage Chart because every Cinderella Linkage is a Golden Linkage. Therefore, by marrying during your Cinderella Time, your marriage will help you to become successful (which is a likely result of the Golden Linkage) and you will be attached and committed to the marriage (the likely result of the Cinderella Linkage).

The more Cinderella Transits you have when you marry, the more magic there will be in your marriage. But you and your spouse must BOTH be having Cinderella Transits when you marry, otherwise it will not work nearly as well because the marriage would not be Magical for both of you.

Choosing a Wedding Day


Astrological wisdom holds that the beginning of something, whether a human life or a marriage, is a crucial moment which contains within it the seeds of what is to come. It pays to know in advance whether there will be a “hallelujah chorus” or a trainwreck in the sky (or something in-between) on the day of your celebration. As above, so below. While astrology cannot guarantee the newly married couple will see their golden anniversary, having a good astrological date is excellent insurance that the caterer shows up, the flowers are perfect, and everything goes as planned.

This good wedding day then becomes the marriage chart for the newlyweds— they are off to a good start.

The same principles apply to all commitment ceremonies, legally recognized or not, gay or straight. The planets do not discriminate.
The basics

1. The first thing I do is check the synastry between the two charts for an astrological “glue” that holds the relationship together. I also look for any potential trouble spots. I will be looking for a date that supports the “glue,” and does not irritate the trouble spots.
2. I am looking for an easygoing day. I want a chart that, if it were a person, would be a kind, gentle, well-adjusted person who would get along well with both members of the couple.
3. We all know that there are days when everyone seems to be in an easy mood (kiss), and there are days when folks are more tightly wound (quack). As above, so below— these “kisses and quacks1“ show up in the heavens, and we can look ahead to see what the planets will be doing on a potential wedding day.
4. We have individual kiss and quack days as well. As the planets move around the skies, they “zing” areas that are sensitive just for you— shown by your birth chart. Some of these transits are easy, and others are difficult. Look for easy, peaceful transits, and avoid harsh ones for both partners.
5. Planets in angular houses are the most powerful planets in the chart. Pick a time for your ceremony when the benefics, Venus and Jupiter, are angular and well aspected in the wedding chart.

Good

* Waxing Moon trine or sextile Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, or Neptune. Moon conjunct Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune.
* Venus is strongest in the signs of her rulership and exaltation: Taurus, Libra, Cancer and Pisces.
* One of the easiest ways to strengthen the chart is to pick a time when Venus or Jupiter is close to the Ascendant, Midheaven or 7th house cusp of the chart. The Midheaven is especially important.
* Venus (love) trine or sextile Saturn (stability, endurance and tradition). Other planets in easy aspect to Saturn are also good. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter.
* Venus, Sun, Moon, Mercury, or Saturn trine, sextile, conjunct, or opposite Jupiter is lucky, optimistic and bounces back from trouble easily. Mars with Jupiter is especially lucky.
* Venus conjunct, trine, sextile or opposite Mars supports a healthy sex life.
* Venus, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter, or Saturn in easy aspect to Neptune supports compassion and spiritual growth.

Avoid

* Venus retrograde
* Waning or void of course Moon
* Venus conjunct, square or opposite Saturn. Saturn stabilizes but can be like a wet blanket on Venus. It may work if there are other planets in supportive aspects (trine, sextile) to the conjunction or opposition. You definitely don’t want anything else squaring it.
* Moon conjunct or square Mars, Saturn, or Pluto.
* Venus in the signs of her detriment and fall: Scorpio, Aries, Capricorn and Virgo. These signs may work if Venus is very well aspected, strongly placed, and in harmony with both natal charts.
* Mars under stress (squares, oppositions, some conjunctions) is passionate and sexual, but can also indicate fighting and arguments.
* Saturn, Uranus, or Mars in an angular house (unless Mars is conjunct Venus).

Finer points

* Having the rulers of the 1st and 7th houses in a favorable aspect is good.
* If you can’t put Venus or Jupiter on an angle, see if you can put the Venus/Jupiter midpoint there.

Unfortunately, we can’t arrange the planets to our liking. We have to work with the planets and what they are doing, and there is no perfect chart. A few klunkers are unavoidable. In fact, a chart without klunkers tends to be weak and lacks focus. Imagine how boring life would be if there were only sweet, and no bitter.

But you don’t want the klunkers driving the bus in your marriage chart. Let’s say in your chart the Moon trines Venus— good! But she squares Uranus— hmmm… The thing to do here is look for a time when Venus is in an angular house and Uranus is not. Remember, the angular houses are much more powerful. Planets in angular houses “have the microphone” in the chart. In a harmonious wedding chart, the happier planets hold the mike. In a discordant chart, planets under stress hold the mike.


Cinderella Time and 10 Principles Magi Astrology of Love

In each woman's life, there is a period of time reserved by the stars when she is meant to meet her very own Prince Charming, fall in love, marry and actually live happily ever after. It is during her Cinderella Time that a woman is most enchanting, intriguing and desirable.

HOW TO RECOGNIZE THE CELESTIAL SIGNS OF YOUR CINDERELLA TIME

The key to Cinderella is CHIRON! Whenever Chiron makes a MAGICAL ANGLE to your Venus, Jupiter or Neptune, you are at the peak of your Romance Cycle. The same is true when Venus, Jupiter or Neptune makes a Magical Angle to your Chiron. It is at these times that you are most charming, most fascinating and most attractive. During your Cinderella Time, people forgive you for everything, they overlook your faults, you possess your maximum amount of charisma and you are at the peak of your popularity. It is during your Cinderella Time that you are as irresistible as you can possibly be. This is the time that you have the greatest chance of meeting your Prince Charming and falling in love together. But as you must have guessed, your Cinderella Gateway is open only briefly and only a few times in your life. Don't miss it. It is crucial that you take advantage of it whenever it occurs in your own life.

The key to understanding each day is to analyze and interpret the most powerful PLANETARY GEOMETRY of the day. On the wedding day, the most important Planetary Geometry is the triangle made by the Sun, Jupiter and Chiron.

Astrologers have long known that each planet has a set of symbolisms.

MAGI ASTROLOGY HELPS YOU TO FORETELL WHEN YOU CAN MARRY HAPPILY

Magi Astrology helps us to see the future footsteps of our stars. Most importantly, we can tell when we are likely to fall in love, get married and even live happily ever after.

There are about a dozen astrological signs that signal a Cinderella Time. In each case, it is a TRANSIT by Chiron, or a transit to a person's natal Chiron. Here are the six most common signs of a Cinderella Time (each such sign is called a Cinderella Sign):

1. Jupiter making a MAGIcal angle to the natal Chiron (the position of Chiron when the woman is born)
2. Chiron making a MAGIcal angle to the natal Jupiter
3. Venus making a MAGIcal angle to natal Chiron
4. Chiron making a MAGIcal angle to natal Venus
5. Neptune making a MAGIcal angle to natal Chiron
6. Chiron making a MAGIcal angle to natal Neptune


MAGI ASTROLOGY’S TEN PRINCIPLES TO HELP ANYONE FIND TRUE LOVE AND AVOID HEARTBREAK


Ever since women and men have been looking for true love, they have looked at each other and wondered:

# Will I marry this person, or someone else?

# Will a serious relationship with this person end up in heartbreak for me?

# Am I in love with this person or is the attraction I feel merely sexual?

We believe the answers have always been in the stars and Magi Astrology is the best way to understand what the stars can tell us. In March of 1999, we published our third book to explain how to use Magi Astrology to help us find happiness in love. For those of you who have not read our book, here now are a few simple Magi Astrology Principles derived from our book that help you to better know how to handle any relationship and ultimately find the one who is meant for you:

Magi Principle One About Love: You are most likely to meet your true love during a time when you are having at least one Cinderella Transit.

Magi Principle Two About Love: The more Cinderella Transits you are having at a particular time, the more likely it is that you will meet your true love at that time.

Magi Principle Three About Love: If you meet someone for the first time while you are having a Heartbreak Transit, it is likely any relationship with this new person will end up inflicting a heartbreak on you. This is true even if you are also having any Cinderella Transit(s) at the time.

Magi Principle Four About Love: Unless two lovers form at least one Romantic Super Linkage, there is only a small chance the two persons would actually ever marry. This is true no matter how much they think they are in love.

[In our opinion, this is the most valuable discovery in all of astrology. There is something mystically amazing about a Romantic Super Linkage. It is not just an astrological sign but it seems to have the ability to create the circumstances that are necessary for two persons to actually get married. For example, when couples form a Romantic Super Linkage, it is less likely that another person will come along to break the couple up. On the other hand, if a couple do not form a Romantic Super Linkage, there almost always seems to be something that prevents a marriage from occurring. Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are a good example of this – they do not form a Romantic Super Linkage.]

Magi Principle Five About Love: If two persons form a Heartbreak Clash, there is a high probability that their relationship will result in heartbreak. But heartbreak is not inevitable for the couple – the couple can avoid heartbreak if they marry on a day that is astrologically highly favorable for both of them, in which case their marriage can be both happy and lifelong. (God smiles on lovers and gave us the Gift of Marriage to help us overcome Heartbreak Clashes – a great Marriage Chart blesses us in many other ways, such as good health and financial security, wonderful children, etc.)

[In most cases, a Heartbreak Clash has two phases: the Illusion Phase and the Disillusionment Phase. During the Illusion Phase, a Heartbreak Clash between two persons creates strong attraction and the illusion of being in love – the two persons do not see each other’s faults. During the Disillusionment Phase of a Heartbreak Clash, the two persons see each other’s faults, which normally results in resentment, falling out of love and heartbreak. The Illusion Phase can last for years, even decades. The Disillusionment Phase lasts the rest of the couple’s lives. The only way to avoid the Disillusionment Phase of a Heartbreak Clash is to marry on a very good astrological day.]

Magi Principle Six About Love: A Sexual Linkage is not a sign of love; but Sexual Linkages create the illusion of love, especially when two persons are young. When two persons form a Sexual Linkage, they have to be especially careful in order to not mistake lust for love.

[Sexual Linkages are signs of great attraction; such attraction can be so intense that many couples mistake it for love, especially if they are young. The more Sexual Linkages that a couple form, the greater the attraction and the more intense the illusion of being in love. Therefore, if two persons think they are in love and they form one or more Sexual Linkages, they have to be especially careful in order to avoid mistaking lust for love. Sexual Linkages are not astrological signs of love; Romantic Super Linkages are.]

Magi Principle Seven About Love: Similarity does not mean compatibility. Linkages are signs of true compatibility between two souls. The more Linkages any couple forms, the more compatible they are.

[When two persons have a SIMILARITY of personality traits, it does NOT mean the two are TRULY compatible. There is great truth and wisdom to the old adage “Opposites attract.” Two persons who are vastly different can still form fabulous linkages and therefore fall in love, and be eternally compatible. God designed the world to be this way so that there is someone perfect for each and every one of us.]

Magi Principle Eight About Love: Incompatibility is not the result of two persons being different. Clashes are the true signs of incompatibility and stress between two souls. The more Clashes any two persons form, the more incompatible they are and the more stress their relationship will have.

Magi Principle Nine About Love: When two persons form more Clashes than Linkages, the two souls are not compatible and are not likely to fall in love, and stay in love.

Magi Principle Ten About Love: No matter how much two persons love each other, and no matter how well their two astrological charts match up, if the two persons get married on a horrible astrological day, their marriage would still be tumultuous and stressful, and probably result in heartbreak. Happiness can be attained by getting married on a perfect astrological day, if the date is properly selected utilizing Magi Astrology.

Editors' Note:

The Principles of Magi Astrology work together and are to be used as a whole. It is unwise to use only some of the Principles and ignore others - to do so can result in heartbreak.

[Do not ignore any of the above Principles when analyzing a relationship. It is unwise to apply only the Principles that give you the answers you may want. The Magi Principles must ALL be utilized and none can be left out when analyzing any relationship. For example, if you are in love with someone that forms a Romantic Super Linkage with you, but you met the person while you were having a Heartbreak Transit, you would be highly tempted to ignore Principle Three, but you must include it. Please do not cherry pick the Principles you wish to apply; the Principles work together as a unit. Similarly, just because you meet someone new while you are having several Cinderella Transits, it does not mean the new person is your true love. In order for the new person to possibly be the one meant for you, the person would also have to fulfill the other Principles of Magi Astrology about love, such as forming a Romantic Super Linkage with you, and forming more Linkages than Clashes, etc.]


Romantic Super-Linkages in Magi Astrology

Permissible planets for
3-planet romantic super-linkages:
Sun
Earth
Moon
(only if you are working
with an exact birth time)
Mercury
Venus
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
(with the caveats at right)
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto
Chiron (required)

Other points may be included in the configuration if it is comprised of more than 3 planets, but the minimum required 3 planets must all be on this list. Juno MAY NOT count as one of the 3 required planets in the super-linkage.


Primary Aspects Used
in Magi Astrology
Conjunction
Trine
Square
Opposition
Quincunx
Parallel
Contraparallel or Contralatitude
In Magi Astrology, Conjunctions, Trines and Parallels between charts are linkages.

The Quincunx and Contraparallel between planets are linkages UNLESS one of the planets is Saturn. In that case the aspect is a clash.

Squares and Oppositions are always clashes regardless of the planets involved.

Permissible Orbs
in Magi Astrology:

Geo Longitudes: 3.0°

Helio Longitudes: 3.0°

Geo Declinations: 1.2°

Helio Latitudes: 0.3°

A note on orbs: More exact orbs are more powerful than wider orbs. Aspects with the tightest orbs are the most significant aspects in CAC's.

All romantic super linkages are not created equal

Another consideration is that even though all romantic super-linkages are indicative of soulmate potential, they are not all created equal in terms of the total energies they bring to a relationship. They differ depending upon the planets involved, the aspects involved and their exactness, and any planetary geometry that is created.

Romantic super-linkages comprised of the romance planets- Venus, Neptune, and Chiron, are the most romantic. Romantic super-linkages including Sun, Earth, Moon, Jupiter and/or Pluto, are also typically good. Saturn in a romantic super-linkage will act to bind a couple but will not bring joy, and can bring difficulties, though the whole romantic super-linkage will need to be analyzed to assess Saturn's effects. Uranus adds a note of distance or fluctuation to a romantic super-linkage. Mars in a romantic super-linkage can add more drive to marry, but can also incline a couple toward disputes. In general, linkages are more favorable than clashes in romantic super-linkages, but clashes from most planets are actually more favorable than Saturn linkages.  More on Planetary Symbolisms in Magi Astrology

Planetary geometry also impacts the interpretation of romantic super-linkages. A grand trine is the most favorable geometry for a romantic super-linkage. Mystical triangles and yods can also be favorable, depending on the planets involved and their positions. T-squares and Grand Crosses, while typically unfavorable, would have to include a linkage to Chiron somewhere and so would have to be assessed in light of that, but would still be likely indicators of difficulties for the couple. More on Planetary Aspects and Geometry in Magi Astrology.


Soulmate Linkages:
3-planet aspects with Chiron

aka Romantic Super-Linkages.
A sign of true love. Feeling like you belong together. Wanting to make a commitment- wanting to marry.
Soulmate Linkages give a couple the feeling of belonging together but they do not guarantee "happily ever after." Soulmate Linkages can coexist with difficult aspects, from mild Clashes to some of the "deal-breaker" Clashes shown below.

The Ultimate Sexual Linkage:
Juno-Venus linkage

Irresistible attraction that can compel people to find a way to get together.
Can just be a super-hot amour without complication or could blind you to important facts or tempt you abandon your values.

The Ultimate Sexual Linkage is only one of many sexual patterns identified by Magi Society research. Each pattern has its own flavor and its own duration. Some Sexual Linkages last forever, some burn out IF AND ONLY IF a couple marries, and some inevitably burn out with time whether or not a couple marries. Juno Sexual Linkages WITH Captivations create Sexual Captivations. Sexual Captivations create extreme sexual intensity coupled with an imbalance of power unless there is Saturn Balance. Can create desperate obsessions and can be very destructive- see examples at right.


Captivations:
Saturn linkage to Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Chiron

Ever felt "trapped" in a relationship?
Ever desperately felt that you couldn't live without someone? Ever done things you wouldn't otherwise do to be with someone?

The Heartbreak Clash:
Chiron clash with Saturn, Sat/Chi or Sat/Jup midpoints

Often begins with a powerful attraction.
It holds a couple together, sometimes
for years, before it ultimately breaks
one or both of their hearts. Heartbreak clashes CAN be overcome...

Heartbreak Clashes can be overcome by a perfect or nearly-perfect wedding date. See: Magi Weddings They may also be overpowered by certain other situations.

The Nuclear Clash:
Saturn-Jupiter clash

Major divisive differences in key areas.
Couples with Nuclear Clashes have to work very hard and be very patient to stay together for long.

"Heaven & Hell" Relationships*:
Soulmate linkages AND severe clashes

"Can't live with 'em, can't live
without 'em." Tumultuous, rollercoaster relationships- may part & reunite many
times. These relationships can be
incredibly painful.

Impossible Dream Clash:
Venus-Chiron clash

A sign of possible Heartbreak. Relationship happiness is seemingly not meant to be.


The Faithful*: Linkage between any two of these: Venus, Vesta, or Jupiter

Wanderers*: Venus, Mars, Pluto or Juno with Uranus

Analyze the ruling relationship chart


How will you see the relationship? What do you have to gain or lose from the partnership?

The ruling chart of your relationship is a crucial key to the relationship's potential- it can dramatically influence happiness or heartbreak, success or failure and help determine if the couple will move on to the next stage of their relationship.

For new acquaintances, the ruling chart is the chart for the first face-to-face meeting.*
For lovers, the ruling chart is the chart of the first time you made love.
For engaged couples, the chart of your engagement is the ruling chart.
For married couples, the chart of the wedding is the ruling chart.

Even as a relationship progresses, the meeting chart continues to play a role until a couple marries, and to some degree afterward.....

The ruling chart by itself is a key to the basic strengths and weaknesses of the relationship and its likely outcome. It also has much to do with how each partner perceives the relationship.

Comparing the ruling chart to each individual birth chart reveals what each partner stands to gain or lose from the relationship, such as:

Individual potential for happiness & satisfaction
Individual potential for career success
Personal issues the relationship is likely to trigger
Potential for heartbreak
