Let’s talk about birth chart markers

A marker is an identification reference and each planet, aspect, sign and house in your birth chart is an astrological marker. Each act as a reference point and reveals a birth chart potential. So, what’s indicated in your chart is capable of development, but is not inevitable.

The planets and zodiac signs are thought-cell markers that indicate the presence of thoughts, feelings and behaviors. 

The astrological marker for power thoughts and self-esteem thinking is the Sun.  The marker for domesticity, care-giving and adaptability is the Moon. The marker for deductive reasoning, problem solving and talking is Mercury. The marker for aggressive action, combat and energized effort is Mars; and the marker for safety, security, precaution and economy is Saturn.

You have a desire-urge for power, a home and family, intellectual effort, aggressive action and security and you should develop a personal hierarchy-of-desires profile based on each planet’s power data as recorded on your chart’s planet power summary.

The astrological marker for a self-important ‘I am’ attitude is Aries. The marker for a thoughtful ‘I think’ attitude is Gemini. The marker for a discriminating ‘I analyze’ attitude is Virgo. The marker for an intense ‘I desire’ attitude is Scorpio; and the marker for a learned ‘I know’ attitude is Aquarius. 

And you should develop a personal attitude-motivation profile based on each sign’s power data as recorded on your chart’s sign power summary.

The planets in your chart form angular relationships called aspects and they influence the functional status of the planets and zodiac signs and mark for thought-compounds that desire a type of event or condition specified by their house locations.

The astrological marker for a prominence experience is a conjunction aspect.  The marker for a friction experience is a semisquare aspect. The marker for an opportunity experience is a sextile aspect. The marker for an obstacle experience is a square aspect. The marker for a luck experience is a trine aspect; and the marker for a separation experience is an opposition aspect.

And you should develop a life experience profile based on the aspect data that’s recorded on your chart’s aspect grid.

The houses in your birth chart mark for departments of life where the action takes place. Events involve environments and each house marks for life-matters, activities, interests and people.

The astrological marker for events involving your physical body, personality and health is house 1. The marker for events involving study, writing, short distance travel and brothers and sisters is house 3. The marker for events involving work and sickness is house 6. The marker for events involving partners and enemies is house 7; and the marker for events involving your career, reputation and mother is house 10. 

And you should develop a personal life-event profile based on the power, harmony or discord data that’s recorded on your chart’s house power summary.

Astrodyne power measures the volume of energy a marker possesses. It’s a relative measurement so it allows you to determine what’s strong and what’s weak in your chart.

The astrodyne power of each planet and sign marks for a relative level of thought-cell activity that permits power grading and you should grade the relative strength of each planet and sign as strong, moderate or weak.

Harmodynes measure harmony and harmony marks for proper thinking, constructive behavior, good fortune and favorable conditions.

Jupiter and Venus are harmonious planets but any planet in your chart that has a harmony score marks for a thought-cell group expressing harmonious-proper thoughts and feelings. So, the harmony data is letting you know you’re doing it right: your constructive conduct is having a fortunate outcome.

Trine, sextile and semisextile aspects are harmony markers.

It’s important to identify the harmony markers in your birth chart. The planet, sign and house power summaries and the aspect grid can be used to develop a harmony profile.

Rather than feel comfortable about the harmony you should evaluate its potential in terms of your mental wellbeing and environmental support and work out how to enhanced it. You should validate birth chart harmony with real life experience and constantly engage in the life-matters and activities that cause you to feel deep level contentment.

Discordynes measure discord and discord marks for misguided thinking, destructive behavior, misfortune and unfavorable conditions.

Saturn and Mars are discordant planets but any planet in your chart with a discord score marks for a thought-cell group expressing discordant-misguided thoughts and feelings. So, the discord data is letting you know you’re doing it wrong: your destructive conduct is having an unfortunate outcome.

Opposition, square, sesquisquare and semisquare aspects are discord markers.

It’s important to identify the discord markers in your birth chart. The planet, sign and house power summaries and the aspect grid can be used to develop a discord profile. Rather than feel uncomfortable about the discord you should evaluate its potential in terms of misguided behavior and environmental antagonism and work out how you can minimize it.

You should validate birth chart discord with real-life experience and reduce the discord potential by changing or modifying your ineffective behaviors, applying mental antidotes, enhancing your most effective behaviors and engaging in smart environment management. 

Success markers include talent, effective behavior, luck, other people and environmental support. Luck can help when talent is lacking.

Your prominent planets indicate the direction your life will take and harmony is a success marker when your behavior is effective and competent. You should ignore the misguided success-markers your culture sanctions. Wealth is the consolation prize for an otherwise meaningless existence. Personal success is all about you being you by contributing your special God-given talent to the common good.

Failure markers include ineptitude, ineffective behavior, a lack of opportunity, misfortune and environmental antagonism. But misfortune is no impediment when talent is genuine. Discord is a failure marker when your behavior is ineffective and inept. Discordant thought-cell activity should be modified and changed and if necessary given a new intent that harnesses your personal talent to a worthwhile purpose. 

Each astrological marker in your chart is providing you with powerful information that’s all about you. You should mine the data – carefully and thoroughly – in the interest of a better life outcome.

Each discord marker comes with a personalized mental medication that you can apply to remedy the dysfunctional or misguided thought-cell activity.

The astrological marker comes before the genetic marker, so it allows you to identify the biochemical problem and take mental and nutritional precautions to prevent its development, or to correct a problem that may have already developed.
