Note: apologies if these are mundane, I haven't read any astrology books yet but ChatGPT was just writing bullshit so I wrote em here instead
1.
Can planet(s) at the handle of a bucket chart behave or function similarly to chart ruler(s)? What if they are making hard aspects to co-rulers? Or in angular houses? And so, more "prominent"?
2.
Do exalted/domicile planets have a wider energetic/magnetic/gravitational pull?
And if so, should you increase the orb of influence of any aspects contacting them due to this wider field of influence/energetic radiance? Or is this logic incorrect?
3.
Are aspects being made to planets closer to the Earth more sensitive/influential and felt more strongly?
I know this is the case with personal planets in general, but for example should Sun/Moon/Mercury/Venus hard aspects be given greater importance *in that particular order*?
4.
Is Mercury in Virgo superior to Mercury in Gemini?
I have met many retarded Mercury in Gemini's (literally below average intelligence) but never a Mercury in Virgo.
Or is this more a symptom of our times, and due to aspects? Or is it just a personality difference on my end? I dislike mundanity.
Tesla had Mercury in Gemini and of course didn't suffer from this, though?
So perhaps the mind is a more complicated area which has to be given a more nuanced analysis of the chart?
5.
If generational planets are retrograde in angular houses (e.g., somewhere personal like 4th) and in tight aspect to the chart ruler(s) will the sign placement become a more "prominent"/personal influence on the individual, rather than remaining strictly a generational energy? What if there is a lot of tension also in terms of aspect patterns?
6.
Why are Earth signs labelled feminine?
Or does it mean something else by feminine?
Virgo and Capricorn are both kinda masculine, no? As Capricorn relates to Saturnian Authority, and Virgo typically left-brained and material logic?
Looking at both Water and Earth, they "absorb" and retain things. Like the trash in the sea, which Fire could've burnt to ashes or Air blown away, Water has a sort of staying power.
But the Earth soaks in rain and gestates, so it is a similarly sort of "receptive" force which retains things... but what does that have to do with Virgo or Capricorn besides its stability? And Taurus even?
7.
Why does Aquarius rule the calves and ankles? Is it because of the "lightning speed bolt" symbolism of Uranus? And so its relation to Hermes' winged ankle symbolism?
Kind of weird though, what does that have to do with Air/Aquarius? Is it about translating things (travelling) from from Air (abstraction) down to Earth (body/practicality)?
And also Aquarius rules the circulatory system? Why is it so related to things which having nothing to do with intellect, and instead material things? Is it due to the co-rulership of Saturn?
If so, is Aquarius the exalted form of Mercury because it combines the Air + Earth of Gemini and Virgo qualities into this more dualistic expression of Mind-Body harmony (eros)?
I saw someone say Aquarius' are sometimes undercover horny af, I was wondering why he said this since it didn't make sense, as Mars in Aquarius tend not to be at all. But I guess it is more of the type who is mentally curious to experiment sexually with this combination of Air + Earthiness. So there is still a "body" quality to it somewhere? Or was he bullshitting?
