Astrological Hypothesis'
Hypothesis 1
If a house cusp lies on a fixed star, the planetary synergies of the fixed star act to dictate the ruling planets of the house, aside of the sign that the cusp is placed in (as per usual). The planet/s which can be attributed to the fixed star, act as tertiary rulers of the houses affairs*.
E.g
If the Ascendant 1st house is on the star Mirach, which portends the nature of Venus, this reinforces Venus as chart ruler on top of the indication of Venus by the AC being in Taurus itself. The person surely would have stronger indications in their aspects to Venus, and in predictions involving their "reinforced" chart ruler, nevermind an extra Venusian nature in their 1st house affairs.
If the 1st house cusp is on the fixed star Alnilam, which questionably portends a Jupiter nature, then aside of Mercury being the primary chart ruler due to the AC placement in Gemini, Jupiter (and potentially, Saturn) can be noted as a "Tertiary chart ruler", third in strength to a co-ruler. Of course the nature of Alnilam as a fixed star is elusive, but a noted amount of other fixed stars, like Mirach, can be attributed to one planet which would ease interpretation. Pollux for example, which is placed in Cancer and connected to Mars.
Furthermore, in the case of decans- if a house cusp lies in the 2nd or 3rd decan of any sign, the affairs of the primary ruler of the house placed in that sign are slightly modified by this predicament.
An AC placed in 2nd decan of Libra therefore, would make Uranus a "Tertiary" chart ruler, aside of Venus indicated by Libra.
An AC placed in the 3rd decan of Scorpio would make the Moon a Tertiary chart ruler beside Pluto and Mars
An AC placed in the 2nd decan of Sagittarius would make Mars a tertiary chart ruler beside Jupiter
And so on... **
This being blended with what Lydia stated in a post about the 1st decan carrying more pure and thus intense traits of a sign, and latter decans bearing more "mastery" over the sign, this adds another dimension to take into account.
Hypothesis 2
Planets when retrograde, particularly active planets and emotional planets (Mars, Jupiter, The two furthest Outer planets) cause the qualities of their "elemental diapositors" to rise in the life as incumbent balancing/imposing features.
E.g
The case of Mars retrograde, looking at the sign of Aries and its "diaposition" (square) to the signs of Cancer firstly and Capricorn secondly- Cancer being incumbent for its elemental indication of Water against Aries' fire.
The understanding of Mars retrograde in a chart from Azazels astrology is that it causes an inverse of energy and withdrawal from anger. Causing those with Mars retrograde to assume that they are peaceful even if they have quite an active nature indicated by their whole chart. Libra's features rise early in the life, even if the individual has no Libra/Venusian indications, as the person observes others actions before their own. In a much more intriguing sense, Cancer's features also rise early in the life as other people impose upon the person(Capricorn) and cause pent up emotions, dreams, anger fantasies and so forth.
This causes the individual to invariably take on a personal Lunar quality if such stressful events persist as there is little to no externalisation of dominance against adversity (despite if the chart is a "dominant" chart with Mars strong) The person resolves to being the weaker, effeminate, a reflector even if they internally are a fighter and aggressive.
For Saturn retrograde, the opposite is the case- who have an inverse of their relationship to power and authority. Looking at the sign of Capricorn, the "12'o clock Midheaven noon sign", would indicate these people have an upsurge of Lunar emotion from the opposite- Cancer, and perceive authority in a careless way, upsetting people (Aries) and subverting their relations with others. This is much more difficult for me to wrap my head around and I feel it is due to the nature of Saturn as an unemotional, material planet ruling things like structure, an outer planet. Success and status turns inwards, the impulses and Martian expressions of the person become careless, and the person seeks to do things fitting their own end, without seeing other people's side first. When people ask of things and impose upon them, they desire to climb the ladder, but they are indifferent toward it and only act for themselves. Like Mars retrograde, but taken alone- there is a great sense of self accomplishment in ones own home, country and so on- little need for expansion.
The Cardinal signs are much easier to analyse in this way, fixed signs are a second with issues, but it can be said that Pluto retrograde causes the Sun(Leo, square to PlutoR's Scorpio)
To surge in the life, hence the "do or die", Life and death, "absolute" quality of Pluto retrograde types. Though in my observations, this is obviously in a first secretive and interpersonal way, then outwards later in life (also potentially not) the strong relationship with death is also a strong relationship with life hence the Black Sun, Dia de Muertos, all Plutonian fascinations in culture. The fixed signs observe even more "whole" and "outer-ly" features than Capricorn in a lot of ways, but can be quite blanket natured and easy to understand.
Mutable signs are the most elusive and complicated, as they cover the details of everything -the mutable water sign being Pisces, A Neptune retrograde is all kinds of confusion therefore. These are the most elusive to apply this to. I have observed Mercury retrograde leads to upsurge of Piscean activity. Jupiter also the same, but my mind is tiring now and cant delve into the intricacies XD. I want to post this anyhow.
Notes:
*with varying strength: the nature of fixed stars is that they are not planetary energies but stellar energies, thus this hypothesis is a fetch in of itself in a sense, but could add extra dimension in understanding complexities of personality. A star's energies are also incredibly mutable and changeable by nature, dependent on their position in the night sky, meaning the sign would still be more important than the rulings of the star, but I believe that some stars retain a strength which separates them from the sign they are in and add a stronger dimension to where it completely subverts characteristics of a sign. Subsequently, a cusp placed on these kinds of stars wouldnt be "tertiary" level rulers but functioning co-rulers.*
**And so a 2nd decan Aries Sun could be seen as a Leo, like Marlon Brando for example who portrays less of an Aries quality, moreso a Leo both in expression and profession.**
I would appreciate if people could get back to me what they think, or even building on this or against it. I would post this on the astrology section as well but it seems to be always barely used. Considering most activity is on the main section, better for more people to see it and what the forum should be about. I have more insights written from years ago, but have to translate them from the confusion I was facing at the time. I hope I'm fine posting this so suddenly and referring to it as hypothesis like I'm some bs scientist but have little practical experience of astrology itself + prior presence on the forum. Maybe I should write a warning: REQUIRES VISUALISATION OF DEGREES...AND OTHER WEIRD SHIT :lol: MIND MY JARGONOUS WAYS
I want to encourage astrology study, activity and potentially breakthrough though,
so I WILL!
