Section 25 “Chariots”

The planets are considered to be in their chariots, whenever they are in their own places, such as their own signs, trigons, exaltations, or bounds. And a planet in this position is quite powerful, even if it is under the beams of the sun. This condition is more strong than others. Furthermore, if the planet is rising or is in an angular house, and can see the moon by aspect, this will be indicative of an authoritative and leadership-oriented nativity. (1. from the left and behind. 2. from the front and the right. 3. from the (ones) on the left. 4…Ptolemy said that this is the same idea as the location from which a ray is carried in a square aspect or an opposition. And Ptolemy also mentioned the trigons of the planets, except that one must look at this concept in regard to co-rulership of places.)
