INSTALMENT 42
TEST 133 - Male
Here is the Birth Chart of a man born in Wellington, New Zealand, on 29 Oct 1966. He is a lawyer living and working in Auckland, New Zealand (36°S52' 174°E46'). He is married, with two children.
The Test is to find which of the following events occurred in his life on 21st May 2007:
- He won an important law case.
- He upgraded his computer equipment.
- He invested heavily in stocks and shares.
- He accepted a well-paid overseas job.
- He bought an expensive new car.
The aim of these Tests is to develop astrological skill in the participants. Success depends mainly on determining the most important feature of the Chart you employ, and correctly understanding the Houses involved. Use any astrological method. You get most value from this exercise if you take the trouble to write or type out your answer.
ANSWER
The man accepted an overseas job. The answer can be found by simply looking for the closest Aspect in the Age Harmonic Chart. This commonly gives the answer immediately without the need to look any further.
AGE HARMONIC CHART
The closest Aspect is the MC at 14Cn23 trine to Fortuna at 14Pi15 (orb 8') – a well-paid job. A confirming factor is the next closest Aspect (orb 11') – Jupiter in the House of income trine the Moon’s Node in the House of work – well-paid employment. The other options are excluded – law case, 9th House; computer equipment, 6th House; stocks and shares, 5th House; new car, 3rd House.
One should not overlook the significance of the Part of Fortune (Fortuna). I use it in every Chart and find it of much greater utility than many other factors such as Chiron and asteroids. The same could be said about the Vertex which also appears to be often ignored.
For those who don’t have an adequate Harmonics Program in the computer a generally reliable Chart is the precessed Solar Month Figure. If you are not familiar with this type of Chart please let me know.
The answer is given here by Jupiter in the House of Career trine to Saturn in the House of Employment. It is supported by Pluto in the Career House trine to Mercury in the House of Earned Income.

Radix Chart:
The most relevant feature of the Chart is Saturn conj Kiron in cusp of 11House opposite Uranus/Pluto. Uranus with Saturn is lord of 10House (employment) and Saturn Lorded 9House (travel abroad, overseas) and Mercury lord of 2H (finances) and 7H (contracts) in RM with Mars, lord of 7 and 12H (relocation) in 4H (home) Using Profection of Ascendant for 40th anniversary, Virgo is the sign (4house) where Mars and Uranus (surprise) and Pluto (transformation) are. Mercury been it’s lord and ruling the houses 2 (gains) and 7 (relationships and contracts). Profection for the month (May) goes to Aries in 11House (income), so Mars again.
Solar Revolution: The 9th House Radix comes to the Ascendant annual. So, the principal event of the year is: Travel abroad. Mars, that regent of the year with Mercury is conj the sun in 9th House opposite Fortuna in Taurus, whose lord, Venus is conj mars and Sun. Mercury conj Jupiter lord of 2nd House and 11th in 10th.
Lunar Revolution: The Radix House that comes to the Lunar Ascendant is the 9th confirming the travel abroad. Moon is in 4th House sextil Venus in 6th House (job) lord of 5th and 10th Houses in RM with Moon, lord of 7th trine Fortuna in 12th House (another relocation house). Jupiter in 11th trine Saturn in 7th, lord of Ascendant and 2nd House, sextile Neptune in 2nd House.
Age Harmonic (40.5594) Floating MC in 6th House (job) trine Mercury lord of 9th House and Venus, lord of MC and 5th House, in 2nd. Vertex in 4th house (home) sextile Sun / Node North in 6th house.
Madhu Nair (India):
The native is under the sway of Ma/Sat. In his chart, Sat is 10L of job & 11L of fulfilment of desires. Saturn is in 12H of foreign.
Sjakkie Govers (Holland):
I used the Day Age Harmonic Chart 40,55934.
In this chart N.Node Sun and floating MC are in the 6th House.
The closest aspect is Jupiter trine N.Node in the 6th. Jupiter is also ruler of the twelfth House: overseas job and in the 2nd House Jupiter symbolizes him being well paid for the job. The next close aspect is Mars square the N.Node: contacts with reference to work.
Ju is conjunct Mercury ( ruler of the 6th and 9th ) POF and Venus: all indicating a well paid overseas job ( Venus rules the 1st and 6th natal House).
Astrid (Croatia):
I make 40th Harmonic Chart where ASC is in Sagittarius and Jupiter in 12th in Sag. This means that he may remove to another place. Second, his natal 9th House is now in first House.
Moon in Harmonic Chart is in Capricorn which means that it is in Fall in his natal 9th House.
Solar return has Mars conj Sun and conj. nat. Venus which may reveal that he move from his work to new job. ASC solar return fall in his natal 9th House, which reveal overseas moving. Saturn ruler of 9th in 4th House.
Lunar Return, has Pluto trine Moon: this means change of home and Moon. ASC L.R. at 26 degrees Cap. which involved 9th House again.
Nicole Sharp (Australia):
Day Chart, Auckland, 21 May 2006:
Saturn rules native, 2nd and 3rd Houses and is found on cusp of the 9th House of travel.
Mercury is very strong in its own Sign and House and is sextile Saturn - 6th House of work to 9th House of travel.
Sun ruler of Saturn is on cusp of 6th House of work sextile Moon in its own Sign of Cancer.
Mars is square Asc - change of environment - both Mars and Asc ssqq Saturn ruler of native in 9th - involves native, home and travel.
Shirley Gray (Michigan):
He accepted a well-paid overseas job. Shown in Age Harmonic 40.55954/Natal BiWheel:
Floating MC in 6th trine to Mercury ruling 9th of travel and 6th of daily work and Venus ruling the career House, both in the second House with Fortuna signifying improvement in his financial standing.
Neptune at Harmonic 4th in square to Asc. reiterates the natal Neptune-10th square, and is in sextile to natal MC on 2nd cusp over which transiting Neptune on May 24 is stationing retrograde = career double whammy.
Moon in 1st in square to natal Moon and at the midpoint Jupiter/Saturn = residential move.
Martine de Karoly (France):
He accepted a well-paid overseas job.
I am using a lunar daily chart, with the Moon at the same distance from the MC, in right ascension, as in the natal chart : 2007/5/20, 10:51 AM NZT, birth place, in Tropical Placidus.
The Moon is conjunct (applying) to Venus, lord of 10th (profession) and 3rd (moving). Mars, lord of 9th is exactly on the cusp of 9th (foreign countries).
Paul Langeveld (Holland):
This is the most difficult chart I ever saw because the ever disclosing Harmonic Age does not tell much unless we should take Venus on C 3 which might indicate the car, computer or voyage but I think this is too meagre. But Jupiter 11 ruler in 2nd H. trine N. Node in 6th H. indicates money from new concern; and by putting HA around the Natal we see that the AC is on C 9 in trine to Neptune N. (voyage) and money new concern – see also Mercury (in 10 H ) trine POF N. Transit Uranus is on C 11 N. I came to this opinion because in the Sec Pr. there is a Moon opp. Moon N. aspect which causes a total change in life mostly while there was at the same time a Pr. Venus -90- Saturn N. and a Moon -90- Jupiter N. causing tension about job and income.
Finally in the DAY chart there is a Moon sextile Sun (9 ruler) and Saturn (9 ruler N.) on C 9 in sextile with Mercury (2 ruler) N.
So there is a possibility for Point 4.
Congratulations to all participants who submitted an answer.
