The theory that each degree of the zodiac has a different meaning has been existed for hundreds of years. Given below are the interpretations of each zodiac degree according to 11 different sources. You can compare the interpretations according to different authors, and decide for yourself which interpretations are the most accurate and useful.
Some of the interpretations were derived through extensive research, some through intuition, and some through a combination of research and astrological theory. An example of astrological theory applied to degree meanings are the interpretations given by David Cochrane, who theorizes that the 12th harmonic signs and the 30th harmonic signs and their relative house and relative sign positions create the basic meaning of the zodiac degree. The codes at the end of his interpretation indicate these values, so, for example, "(SCO-10-VIR, LIB-9-LEO)" means that the 12th harmonic sign is Scorpio, its relative house position is 10, relative sign position is Virgo. The 30th harmonic sign is Libra and its relative house position is 9 and its relative sign position is Leo. This theory is explained in detail in his book.
Note also that for the following zodiac degrees of any zodiac sign, Cochrane assigns a different interpretation to each half of the degree: 2-3, 7-8, 12-13, 17-18, 22-23, and 27-28. All other authors always assign one interpretation to each degree.
The sources of the interpretations are as follows:

Degree Meanings
Sun
Sabian Symbol (Sun):
Original from M. E. Jones: Butterfly emerging from chrysalis. Keyword: Emanation
Rudhyar version: A Butterfly Emerging From A Chrysalis
Charubel (Sun):
Symbol: A man with open breast, showing enlarged heart overflowing with blood.
A degree of sorrow. Denotes one who will be subject to most harrowing trials through life, and who will die heartbroken.
La Volasfera (Sun):
Symbol: Two crossed swords surrounded by a wreath of laurels.
Whoever has this astral signature will be remarkable for his powers of attack and defense. He may be a clever barrister, a successful diplomat, or a man of the sword. In the passage of arms which will constantly fall to his lot, he will prove himself capable and skilful to a degree. He will show considerable powers of execution, a pointedness and directness of speech, an incisive manner, and sharp acute, penetrating mind. He will gain honor in his special walk in life, and should he take to the sword either in the defense of his own country or the conquest of another, he will meet with distinction and honor. Yet he will hold but little of this world's goods and must rely continually on his power of cutting his way through life by his own continuous exertions. It is a degree of EXECUTION.
Matthews (Sun):
Symbol: "GANBLING"
Denotes one who will gamble with money, love, reputation or even his life.
Carelli (Sun):
Symbol: A knight with a drawn sword.
An heroic degree, but its chivalrous character may degenerate into quarrelsomeness, or induce a destiny too bristling with frightful ordeals to be borne by human beings.
Should no other element in the nativity point to recklessness, or threaten hurdles too high to clear, we may well foresee a degree of luck as high as the degree of daring, military and civil honors, the raising to the highest dignities, fame among contemporaries, and renown in posterity.
As the body is nimble, so the mind is swift, suitable for word fights as sharp as the sword. Military careers and the art of fencing, diplomacy and the bar ought to be accessible in themselves, but an eye should be kept upon the rest.
Kozminsky (Sun):
Symbol: Forked lightning surrounded by stars amidst storm-clouds.
Denotes one whose rise in life will be sudden and who will maintain his position with difficulty. He will enjoy the smiles of favoring fortune and suffer the frowns of envy, and is destined to wrestle with opposition and inharmonious conditions. Let him study his horoscope and steer clear of the breakers. It is a symbol of Debate.
Muir (Sun):
One who will be elevated above his position at birth but who must be ever watchful lest his fall be greater.
Leinbach (Sun):
Gambling is the major interest here. He has a keen insight into the weaknesses of humanity but prefers not to get involved. He fears poverty but he also goes to great lengths to avoid becoming involved in anything of a stable nature to earn an honest living, except if he had the opportunity to become a proprietor of a gambling casino. He spends much energy and effort being a non-conformist. He will gamble with anything, even his life.
Weber (Sun):
Fixed, secretive Scorpio and Cardinal to-the-point Cancer suggest psychic or occult fields, but also the military because of respect for and connection to death and nationalism. Good in-fighter; also an astute diplomat or negotiator. Back-to-basics degree - life is not easy - no-nonsense and serious, often drawn to life threatening situations. Also a dramatic actor, composer, or a writer of dramas and teacher of great wisdoms. Makes a pleasant home for family, which it leads through the trials presented by the world.
Henson (Sun):
Astrology; home luxury and abundance; music; one who will gamble with money, love reputation, or even with his life; left tibia.
Cochrane (Sun):
Responsible, trustworthy, and honest. Dislikes oppressive social conditions; may be a social reformer. Good leadership qualities. (PIS-2-CAP, LEO-7-GEM)
Moon
Sabian Symbol (Moon):
Original from M. E. Jones: The lamp of physical enlightenment in the left temple. Keyword: Reconciliation
Rudhyar version: In The Left Section Of An Archaic Temple, A Lamp Burns In A Container Shaped Like A Human Body
Charubel (Moon):
Symbol: A lion standing alone with tail erect and in the act of running towards a panther.
A person of noble disposition, high minded, honorable, but bold, courageous and fearless of foes.
La Volasfera (Moon):
Symbol: A tiger crouching as in the act of assault.
It denotes a character that is treacherous and aggressive, disposed to seek his ends with subtlety and to secure them by force. There is here a combination that is both diplomatic and assertive, and therefore to be treated with reserve and firmness. The native will attain many of his ambitions and will make many enemies in the course of his career. His projects will lead him into many dangers and may even bring about his premature end. It is a degree of STRATEGY.
Matthews (Moon):
Symbol: "STAUNCH, UPRIGHT AIJD FEARLESS"
Interested in politics or Astrology.
Carelli (Moon):
Symbol: An ape riding a wolf.
This degree will favor a military and a political career. It confers all the virtues of a noble and fearless heart and all the vices of a sly, dissembling and unscrupulous mind. The native is glib enough to defend the noblest cause, resorting to the underhand tricks employed to bolster up a forged and exploded cause. Strong favorable aspects would strike off the craftiness, whereas concurrence of evil features may taint the nobility of the cause.
The native will win many friends and make many enemies; and his life, after seeing him through many perils, may have a sudden end.
Kozminsky (Moon):
Symbol: A fisherman with a net over his shoulder sitting on a basket, a group of people advancing towards him.
Denotes a psychic of ability and reputation. He may hold some public position or come before the public in some way. The temper is somewhat jerky and the nature a little irritable, but he has good controlling power and a firm will. As a collector and publisher of knowledge this native has special genius. It is a symbol of Projection.
Muir (Moon):
A good mixer who finds a friend on every trip. Quickly irritated by restraint. Will print or publish late in life.
Leinbach (Moon):
This native may be considered a genius although he is neither original nor creative. His success lies in his skill in dealing with people. His manner is charming and peaceful unless the situation calls for something more aggressive. He is an organizer with perceptive insight to keep many factors under control. He can take some other person's work and whip it into shape and sell it; not that he plagiarizes. He is the epitome of the Sagittarius ability to shape what society or the environment around him offers into meaningful and workable patterns. He simply puts to work what he finds around him. His capacity to incorporate everything of value into new and different wholes is amazing.
Weber (Moon):
Helpful Aquarius influence balances eager, ambitious Sagittarius. A good combination: aggressive but humanitarian, perhaps a public servant, good friend, fond of modern leisure-time fun. Could develop into a revolutionary or champion new causes - distrustful and an adversary to questionable power structures. Noble and fearless heart, willing to win by any means, which may be admired, but not in all cases (some may lead to dismay and ridicule). Underlying Leo influence makes it a leader of groups - a scout pack, brownie troop, gang, service organization - maybe just a parent of many children, or a school teacher or military trainer/officer.
Henson (Moon):
Interested in politics or astrology; architects, staunch, upright, and fearless, enteric; typhoid fever; adductor muscle.
Cochrane (Moon):
Energetic, self-reliant, ambitious, pioneering, and innovative. Scientific, logical mind. Drives to the basic and fundamental issues in any theory or discussion. May have an erratic, disturbing disposition. (LEO-9-ARI, AQU-3-LIB)
Mercury
Sabian Symbol (Mercury):
Original from M. E. Jones: A deserter from the navy. Keyword: Defiance
Rudhyar version: Same as original
Charubel (Mercury):
Symbol: A warrior in bright armor with drawn sword, pursuing a savage multitude.
One with great occult ability, and who has a mission to accomplish; a White Magician! and conquer.
La Volasfera (Mercury):
Symbol: A man walking with bended head, leaning upon a staff.
This symbol is related to one whose life is liable to many and severe shocks of misfortune, the severing of ties and the disappointment of hopes. Nevertheless, he will show a spirit of steadfast resignation to the will of Heaven and therein will find consolation for his griefs and sorrows. The task which he will have to perform in life will be honorable but unprofitable, and many will be the difficulties which encumber his upward path. He is nevertheless equipped for a long and arduous journey, and being endowed with a patient and firm will, he must eventually attain his goal. Only in the interval he will have to surrender all that he holds most dear in life. It is a degree of PERSEVERANCE.
Matthews (Mercury):
Symbol: "HAZARDOUS"
These women are much loved. Men are natural leaders and follow some unusual line of work.
Carelli (Mercury):
As the olive, when broken in the mill, oozes sweet oil, so let your broken heart bleed a song that redeems, uplifts your will - D'Annunzio
It is a degree of action closely following thought; there is love of art, mastery in one's chosen art or profession, courage and combativeness. The head or the legs risk being affected by numbness, illnesses or wounds. Pain in general casts its shadow over the native's karma, but a stalwart will power enables him to bear it like a man. There may be disappointments, sorrow, dissolution of bonds, perhaps grief the loss of dear ones.
Victory is likely to crown the native's steady daring, but it will be as splendid as fruitless. The native has a mission to fulfill and is not supposed to fight for his own sake. Occult initiation is not unlikely.
Kozminsky (Mercury):
Symbol: A white-haired man, holding a cross before him, walking over a mosaic pavement.
Denotes one of a truly religious mind whose career will be as full of incident as the many pieces which go to make a mosaic pavement are full of color. Material life is not without its dangers - moral and physical - but the native is not born under the heel of fear. He sees beyond his times and bears his cross. It is a symbol of Faithfulness.
Muir (Mercury):
Faithful and courageous, practical yet truly religious. He suffers in silence.
Leinbach (Mercury):
Qualifications for scientific and philosophical work of an inventive nature may be expected here. There seems to be well-rounded natural development of the personality which contributes much to relationships with other people. The influence also contributes to long life. There is an unpretentious need for freedom which is well handled. He is resourceful and competent in small handy man type activities as well as more profound abilities. Uranus seems to influence this degree quite heavily, causing sudden occurrences of all kinds; sudden flashes of insight; problem solving; and accidents. Even the accidents may be beneficial in their results. There is a great ability to penetrate deeply into an area under study, and something like X-ray vision as to seeing through a mass of what might seem to others confusing detail. If the Sun or Ascendant were here, look to Uranus as a more powerful influence.
Weber (Mercury):
Earth sign Taurus active here adds to the persevering self-directed nature of Capricorn - physically strong degree. Love of art, the land and nature, courageous and even combative - quite liberal for a double-fixed sign, but still defiant and self-protective. Prone to wounds and illnesses, subject to physical pain that inner militancy brings about - often a military career or aviator. Lack true humanitarian warmth felt by most Aquarians.
Henson (Mercury):
Inquisitiveness; obesity; brings strange events into one's life; women are much loved; men are natural leaders and follow some unusual line of work; right fibula.
Cochrane (Mercury):
Quickly and easily adapts to any environment or social atmosphere. Has many different interests and does not focus energy on one specific area. Imaginative and poetic. Generous. (TAU-4-PIS, GEM-5-ARI)
Venus
Sabian Symbol (Venus):
Original from M. E. Jones: An ancient bas-relief carved in granite. Keyword: Foundation
Rudhyar version: An Ancient Bas-Relief Carved In Granite Remains A Witness To A Long-Forgotten Culture
Charubel (Venus):
Symbol: A vista extending to a great distance; on either hand are majestic trees covered with a profusion of foliage.
A person fond of landscape paintings; and one possessed of artistic gifts; open to enchanting visions. This is in a special way an idealistic degree.
La Volasfera (Venus):
Symbol: A harrow standing on an open field.
This indicates one who will manifest an extremely critical, sarcastic and aggressive nature. It will be his business in life to dig into the common soil of the human mind, to lay bare and expose its true nature, and to create dissensions, divisions and strife, stirring up and leavening the pabulum of popular beliefs, and bringing to light their fallacies, impedimenta, and imperfections. The mind will be pugnacious in the extreme, and although it may attract admirers it will have few sympathizers or adherents. In removing the weed growth on the ages and in the ruthless examination of things as they are in the broad field of human life and thought, will consist the main work of this peculiarly angular and incisive nature. It as a degree of CRITICISM.
Matthews (Venus):
Symbol: "INGENIOUS AND ACGRESSIVE"
Visionary but skillful, sometimes a critical 'busybody.'
Carelli (Venus):
Symbol: A gardener tidies and trims a splendid park which has lain abandoned for years; uprooting the weeds, pruning the withered or blighted twigs, felling decayed trees and the like.
Here we are confronted with a first-rate critic and polemicist, a revolutionary innovator. He is not of necessity to be a politician or a journalist; whatever field of action he chooses, the native will fight a successful battle and end by disposing of the mentality his circle had inherited from the previous generation as a useless burden.
In this light he will be helped by an inborn irony which will at times take up a tinge of humor, at times acquire the edge of cruel sarcasm against the opponents of the idea he stands for. A past master in the art of unmasking other people's hypocrisy, he will ruthlessly lay bare the most hidden recesses of human mentality, but will spare the populace's superstition rather than the smart set's prejudices. His crude realism does not in the least exclude sincere devotion to an ideal. He may even be an artist; landscape painting exerts a special fascination over him.
Such a fighter will seldom become universally liked, but he will be admired and he certainly will be feared. The most congenial professions are medicine (neurology or psychiatry) and ethnology.
Kozminsky (Venus):
Symbol: A woman in a drapery establishment, the table crowded with articles of dress, none of which please her.
Denotes one not easily satisfied and who is not always conscious of the feelings of others. He is not deficient in taste, but he allows his mind to be so affected by varied desires and feelings that it is difficult for him to preserve firmness. He should ever strive to encourage the positive and to cultivate fixity of mind. It is a symbol of Dissatisfaction.
Muir (Venus):
A clever surgeon or doctor but inclined to be too negative and to take life too easy.
Leinbach (Venus):
The influence of this degree is bent on reaching the top and yet the native maintains his own standards of honor and integrity. In battle he stands bloodshed so well one might think he enjoyed it but he does not. He is capable of walking away with the honors the world has to bestow. However, he also has much higher capacities if he chooses to concentrate on more spiritual development. He is inclined to lead an active life, always in search of adventure and never shunning hazards, although he never takes unnecessary risks or pursues a goal merely the sake of conquest. He tends to be hard in his logic and self-control. Difficult to be close to. He is a hard self-made man who considers those below him as others might love an animal. He may be very kind and generous but always superior. He also confidently burns his bridges behind him.
Weber (Venus):
Near the most "exalted" degree of Capricorn is earthy, self-possessed Taurus. But this degree is still highly fiery with Aries and Sagittarius, and doesn't sit still long enough to reap the benefits of its exceptional life-skills and inner strength - wasteful. Thirst for power and tendency to go to extremes - risky business for cautious Capricorn, so success can't be assured, although strength and determination and evident. Perhaps a little too outright with selfish desires. Discretion and charity would help.
Henson (Venus):
Business: ingenious and aggressive; visionary but skillful; sometimes a critical "busybody"; happiness, good fortune; on Ascendant: a shrewd schemer; right knee cartilage.
Cochrane (Venus):
Inquisitive, sharp, piercing, precise, intelligent. Self-reliant, courageous, and instinctive. One-sided, fearless pursuit of objectives. At times too blunt and caustic. (VIR-9-GEM, SCO-11-LEO)
Mars
Sabian Symbol (Mars):
Original from M. E. Jones: Early morning dew. Keyword: Rejuvenation
Rudhyar version: Early Morning Dew Sparkles As Sunlight Floods The Field
Charubel (Mars):
Symbol: A shovel suspended in mid-air.
Denotes a would-be agriculturist, but he will devote much of his time and energy to what is impracticable and consequently profitless, as much so as digging the air and sowing to the wind.
La Volasfera (Mars):
An oak tree broken by the wind, and beneath is the skeleton of some dead creature.
It denotes one whose chief ambitions will not come to completion, but either through disaster or untimely death will be prematurely brought to naught. To whomsoever this degree may appertain, the warning goes forth : build not for the future, but for eternity, for it is very nigh; and if thou sowest aught, make no count of the harvest, for the seasons are not to thy hand; yet both sow and build for the greater good, and work in hope! In character the native will be versatile, somewhat morose and despondent, but strong in trial; and giving shelter even to the worthless out of pure goodwill. It is a degree of PERIL.
Matthews (Mars):
Symbol: "GENERALIZATION"
A critical degree. The native is versatile, fearless, firm and sure, but sometimes morose. Often interested in the mystic secrets of life and death. Sudden friendships and estrangements.
Carelli (Mars):
Symbol: Death, holding the scythe.
Ananke! In a previous life the native has taken someone's life in cold blood, but not for selfish purposes. Therefore he is either an instrument of fate or its victim. Whether good or bad, such a man is destined to destroy, not to create.
In extremely lucky horoscopes the native is an indomitable being. No-one can oppose his cunning and his cool determination. He can bide his time, but will not argue or listen to objections when he has made up his mind to act. Nothing equals his timeliness, nothing can shake his deliberation. You might ward him off for awhile but never finally thwart his plans, as he simply will lie in wait for a better opportunity to strike again, this time more unpredictably and more decidedly than before.
He knows neither privileges nor distinctions; all are equal in his eyes; and he cannot bear the big shots. If he is good (which is not excluded even side by side with the ruthless will power we credit him with) he will extend his kindness and hospitality even to the undeserving. If he is bad, nothing will limit his capacity for evil; no-one will deserve pity in his eyes, no power on earth will be able to ward off his murderous hand.
So far the extreme cases. The average man born under this influence will inherit only its destructive bent and will not be able to build anything on earth. Death's wing will be ever at his side, ready to carry off his dear ones, his irreplaceable cooperators, or himself. His best-engineered plans will stay fruitless, his earthly work remain unachieved. Others might reap what he sows down here. He can sow only for eternity.
Kozminsky (Mars):
Symbol: A soldier rescuing a wounded comrade on a field of battle - a dark, sinister figure rising behind him.
Denotes one of brave, fearless, and noble disposition whose natural greatness of soul is moved by the necessities of others, and who always puts the well-being of another before his own comforts. Envy is directed against him and malice turns her evil eyes on him. He will be exposed to many and grave dangers, for duty to him is ever the first thought. It is a symbol of Daring.
Muir (Mars):
A fearless fighter for the cause of right and justice. Excites the enmity of others.
Leinbach (Mars):
The native of this degree will make up for lack of more stable qualities by showmanship. He is most skilled in an ability to cover up and present attractive fronts. He would make a good salesman, more especially if the product he was selling was already of high quality; this native would add a dazzling presentation. Pride is very important here and he suffers most when he is dealt a severe blow in this area. He also has a sense of protocol, symmetry in design and harmony of function.
Weber (Mars):
Libra with Taurus here is happy-go-lucky, blessed with opportunities and an easy, social, active life shared with others. Cannot be dominated, an able administrator, although not hard worker, but generally fair and without malice. Manipulative but soft - unambitious. Pleasant voice, romances and surroundings. Confident - successful, but could be stubborn and procrastinating or aloof. Dislikes distasteful circumstances and uncultured people.
Henson (Mars):
Alcoholism; army and navy; versatile, fearless, firm and sure but sometimes morose; often interested in the mystic secrets of life and death; sudden friendships and estrangements; bladder afflictions; jugular vein.
Cochrane (Mars):
Persevering and determined worker. Quiet, mature, self-reliant. Ability to concentrate on a certain task until it is brought to completion. (CAN-12-SCO, CAP-6-TAU)
Jupiter
Sabian Symbol (Jupiter):
Original from M. E. Jones: A table set for an evening meal. Keyword: Familiarity
Rudhyar version: A Table Set For An Evening Meal
Charubel (Jupiter):
Symbol: An angel blowing a trumpet.
Denotes one whose office will be to publish to the world some important message: a message having a bearing on the social or spiritual condition of mankind. A preacher, a lecturer, or some popular person.
La Volasfera (Jupiter):
Symbol: A helical scroll.
This degree denotes a nature which is undecided, changeful, fickle and of no stability. Such an one will lose himself in the multitude of his projects and imaginings. His path in life will be circuitous and will lead back to himself. His imagination will run riot with his reason, and his efforts will lack that definition of purpose which makes for success in life. His mind will be tortuous and chaotic, filled with dreams and fancies to the exclusion of useful and practical measures. He may suffer brain disorder, or some continuous affection of the nervous system, which will render even his bodily actions limp and uncertain. To such an one healthful and virile companionship in youth will prove a lasting blessing. It is a degree of WANDERING.
Matthews (Jupiter):
Symbol: "SKILLFUL"
Versatile ability. May be a writer, or merely one who is very fond of reading. Often a heavy eater, or else one who has digestive ailment.
Carelli (Jupiter):
Symbol: Full Moon.
Super-rational logic, or no logic at all. On a highly spiritual plane this influence will resolve itself into a stream of light. A noble soul soaring above the miseries of everyday life can expect many a gift from this degree. It may have to convey a message of love to mankind erring in darkness, and even may have inborn that imaginative consciousness constituting the first step of occult development. Beyond the range of any rational conceptions, the native's thought and behavior will be restored and prompted by lofty and dazzling imaginations.
On a lower plane this degree will breed public men. The subject then may be an idealist, but his activity, not a purely worldly one, will never stumble on problems of consequence; he will let himself be led by merely political principles and will stick to empirical methods. In the light of such premises, it cannot even be said that the end justifies the means, as the end itself changes according to circumstances. Only that which proves useful for the time being is praiseworthy.
In an unlucky horoscope, castles will be built in the air, and the inability to have one's dreams come true will lead to changing one's opinions and to remolding one's random plans with the same casual unconcern with which one would change his shirt. Should other such features concur, the danger of mental unbalance would set in.
Kozminsky (Jupiter):
Symbol: An itinerant musician playing the mandolin and singing love-songs to a number of country maidens who are seated on rocks and fallen trees around him.
Denotes one who is musical, artistic, and pleasure loving who is gifted with a wealth of imagination and an engaging manner. He gives pleasure to many, and will meet with much applause. His nature is light and airy and somewhat wanting in stability. He delights to wander about, or his calling may involve much traveling. It is a symbol of Entertaining.
Muir (Jupiter):
Kindly, hospitable, artistic, and musical. A wandering minstrel, delighting to do good to others.
Leinbach (Jupiter):
This is another degree showing a great and frustrated hold on maintaining physical prowess and material interests. These natives usually meet with severe difficulties. Sometimes they settle down and learn to live more peaceably later on. The digestive system is affected by this degree. There is a special fondness for delicate foods and also weakness of the digestive system to handle such foods. He may take an interest in legal professions and do quite well. The latter part of his life is more likely to be satisfying than the first part. There is considerable hope that be will learn to balance out his dualistic nature.
Weber (Jupiter):
Aries/Virgo effect here - much hope is placed in the future - perhaps too much. Critical outlook, but often forgets to live within means and to make realistic plans - may suffer may disappointments. Should not gamble or speculate. Unthreatening and adaptable, usually well organized. Work with the public is favored. May suffer separations from family without whose support life becomes more difficult. Sensitive to health matters, physical complaints, and social injustices. Very changeable nature.
Henson (Jupiter):
Skillful; versatile ability; may be a writer or merely one who is very fond of reading; often a heavy eater or one who has digestive ailments; right fibular muscle.
Cochrane (Jupiter):
Kind, loving, tactful. Harmonious and pleasant disposition. Aptitude for psychology and social work. Good artistic taste. Also has some interest in gardening, nutrition, and economics. (SCO-9-LIB, TAU-3-ARI)
Saturn
Sabian Symbol (Saturn):
Original from M. E. Jones: A big businessman at his desk. Keyword: Accomplishment
Rudhyar version: A Big Businessman At His Desk
Charubel (Saturn):
Symbol: A vessel rolling in the trough of a rough sea.
Denotes one who will ever live in a state of uncertainty, subject to many changes and severe trials; his career will be a struggle for existence.
La Volasfera (Saturn):
Symbol: A smith's forge and bellows.
This symbol is related to the one who will show considerable aspiration in things of a spiritual nature and will be instrumental in awakening in the breast of man a belief in things supernormal, by fanning the spark of intelligent faith into a flame of conviction and consuming desire. His profession will be allied to the useful arts and his walk in life, although simple and devoid of ostentation, will nevertheless be of singular service to humanity. Great in soul and of immense aspiration, he will prove a veritable Vulcan. It is a degree of INSPIRATION.
Matthews (Saturn):
Symbol: "ABILITY"
Judicial with good mentality and mathematical ability. Fond of sports, music or reading. Usually suited to law, finance, statistics or literary work.
Carelli (Saturn):
Symbol: Vulcanus forging Jupiter's thunderbolts.
I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? -Luke 12:49
A fiery will, a stormy ardor; immense, often inordinate, aspirations, boundless fantasy and enthusiasm, a nearly always unhinged and jarring mood; in a word, a volcanic character.
There usually will be a modest career not in keeping with the size of the native's ideals or with the power of his constructive mind. A rough and tumble life, full of surprises and ups and downs, is not at all unlikely. The profession or trade may be bound with physical fire or glow with the flame of Spirit, normally symbolized by fire. Let this be a warning in both senses, as playing with fire is usually dangerous, and one can easily come off with ugly scars.
The native is likely to have the god Vulcanus' bodily defects.
Kozminsky (Saturn):
Symbol: A ship running before the wind with bare poles. The sea, black and angry, is illumined by a ray of moonlight which shines through a break in the heavy clouds.
Denotes one of a trusting spiritual nature who will have trials in life threatening and bitter, and who will often be storm-driven and held in the grip of hard circumstances. Now and then there are breaks in the storms of life which bring relief, no matter how small. But he must go on; his way is difficult and the night is dark, but in the morning light will come. It is a symbol of Experience.
Muir (Saturn):
Sacrificing all on the altar of what he believes to be God-given purpose of his life through which he incurs much criticism.
Leinbach (Saturn):
This degree seems to grant all the things the earlier four degrees lack. These natives are world conscious, at home everywhere. They have the most trustworthy intuitions to be found anywhere and should always rely on their own inspiration. Abilities found here are generous. There is a fondness for sports, music and reading. His presence in the world is of value to others as well as to himself. Whatever ventures he pursues he is assured a measure of success because of his way with people as well as his abundant abilities. He has a strong character which will not be overwhelmed or ignored. But he does not use his abilities to overwhelm others either. He is likely to travel and be an ambassador of goodwill wherever he goes. His life is exciting and adventuresome as well as a blessing to all he meets.
Weber (Saturn):
Active, resourceful, dexterous, fluent Gemini strong here - almost as strong as the center area of its own sign (5 degree). Exceedingly quick, active mentality; friendly, outgoing character, not overly ambitious, blessed with happiness, not feeling a need to grovel for status and money. Plenty of enthusiasm for doing exciting, stimulating things - flying, sports, building, making improvements or racing around. Explosives, fast cars and other danger "games" are sources of injury.
Henson (Saturn):
Oil producing, literature; appreciation of the beautiful; the artist; often prominent in charts of those who have achieved literary eminence; judicial with good mentality and mathematical ability; fond of sports, music or reading; usually suited to law, finance, statistics, or literary work; lymph vessel of left lower leg.
Cochrane (Saturn):
Helpful, courteous, and noble. Enjoys working directly with other people and personally serving others. Humanistic and humanitarian. Good leadership qualities. (LIB-9-LEO, CAN-6-TAU)
Uranus
Sabian Symbol (Uranus):
Original from M. E. Jones: A colored child playing with white children. Keyword: Intimacy
Rudhyar version: Black And White Children Play Together Happily
Charubel (Uranus):
Symbol: A square patch of ground, resembling what might be set apart for lawn tennis; covered with red cloth, or what resembles such.
Whoever may have this degree on his ascendant is born for the enjoyment of the luxuries of this life; plenty follows him; but willful waste, and useless expenditure on what pertains to matters conventional, superficial, and the artificial, these prove his leading characteristics. Whilst he is intensely devoted to art, he will ignore the beauties of nature.
La Volasfera (Uranus):
Symbol: A field of corn standing high and ripe.
It denotes a person of simple and rural habits, who will succeed in the cultivation of natural products, and in husbandry or farming. The mind, although simple, is full of the essential elements of the right thinking, and the nature is ripe with well-directed aspirations and endeavors. Such an one will live a useful and successful life, and will come to the length of his days in competence and peace. It is a degree of PRODUCE.
Matthews (Uranus):
Symbol: "RESTRAINT"
A hard worker but sometimes lacking in originality. Makes a good employee, who will do things right.
Carelli (Uranus):
Symbol: A steamroller.
A craze for planning and technology; a naive faith in purely mechanical progress; contempt for individual distinctions; love of the extreme and of the absolute. Some features of fatality in the existence, something inexorable in character. A massive strength, an ability to lay out on broad lines work to be carried out by others and to give it the finishing touches after completion.
This same force, instead of preparing and perfecting usefully the work of others, can stay fruitless and can sponge upon its environment; or, even worse, instead of leveling and paving the way for the execution of the work planned, he can be employed to destroy and raze everything aimlessly to the ground. The rest of the horoscope will show the right angle.
Where a sound, peaceful, constructive nature is at work, the subject might be really fond of nature and might run his or someone else's estate strictly but efficiently, heading for a quiet and affluent old age.
On the contrary, where the stars point to fondness for the fruitless, artificial life usually led by the smartest set of society, a rush for pleasure will swallow up wealth laboriously built up by the ancestors. Plenty of well-meaning and helpful friends will be powerless to save the native from bankruptcy; once collapsed, neither his taste nor his artistic gifts will be of any avail. A third case is possible: an aggressive, destructive, brutal and despotically leveling nature - in a word, a downright Vandalic or Hunnish character.
Undeniable in all cases is a profound sense of truth, unaccountably coupled with fast living or ruthless destructiveness.
Kozminsky (Uranus):
Symbol: A bookbinder fastening covers on a number of unbound books.
Denotes one who spreads knowledge of some special nature whose position in life will be one of trust and responsibility. His mind is analytical and exact, and his actions are regulated by necessity and the acts of others. "Safe bind, safe find," is his motto, and carelessness does not enter into his nature. It is a symbol of Protecting.
Muir (Uranus):
Metaphysical, sincere, orderly. A trusted employee.
Leinbach (Uranus):
This degree gives the capacity to persevere with long difficult and involved research. This may or may not be coupled with some inspirational qualities. At any rate, the native has persistent strength, lasting courage and sharp insight. Success may keep him waiting most of his life. Nevertheless he is sure to complete his life on the positive side. There is a divine protection with this degree. No matter how isolated or how low his supplies become, there is always provided what is necessary to keep him going. Through all his difficulties he is somehow sustained also by the knowledge that his needs will be met. And he lives with an optimism that his work will be successful. He can also be assured that he will live to reap the harvest of his devoted efforts.
Weber (Uranus):
Highly active, mental, Arian degree of Virgo always busy with ideas, mechanics, or construction, and when fully involved, usually does so right and proper. Superficial live-for-today sort - good employee at many sensitive vocations, but hardly an executive. May not be fully rewarded for work, and might not put earnings to good use. Romantically, may be devious - who would ever expect infidelity from a Virgo? But, that happens - Aries' independent head often changes the direction of its heart.
Henson (Uranus):
Photography, often found in charts of mediums and healers; a doctor's degree; restraint; a hard worker but sometimes lacking in originality; makes a good employee who will do things right; upper intestinal areas; ascending colon (large intestine).
Cochrane (Uranus):
Strives to live his life according to his ideals. May struggle with himself too much. Concerned with justice, equality, and human brotherhood. (TAU-9-LIB, CAP-5-GEM)
Neptune
Sabian Symbol (Neptune):
Original from M. E. Jones: A girl's face breaking into a smile. Keyword: Acquiescence
Rudhyar version: Same as original
Charubel (Neptune):
Symbol: A red flame, ascending upward to a great height.
Denotes a person possessed with ardent desires; an enthusiast to the cause he espouses; a true friend and an open enemy.
La Volasfera (Neptune):
Symbol: A cup or goblet from which rays of ruddy light are emitted.
It is the index of a kind and benevolent nature; a generous and humane disposition; ever eager to befriend and comfort those who may be in distress of body or mind. The grandeur and spiritual loftiness of this soul will attract many friends, and the work of charity and benevolence will increase continually, gathering volume as it goes, till it reaches the ocean of human life, and enfolds all mankind. It is a degree of HUMANENESS.
Matthews (Neptune):
Symbol: "CAREFULNESS" Or carelessness under affliction.
Not a powerful degree, and like 17-18, the natives are hardly typical of Scorpio. May be an art collector or a person who works hard at some branch of art, with little remuneration.
Carelli (Neptune):
Symbol: A knight of the Holy Grail.
An ancient Christian legend tells how, when Lucifer was flung down from Heaven, a jewel fell from his crown. From this jewel a cup was carved in which, on the day of our Lord's passion, Joseph of Arimathea gathered the blood flowing from crucified Christ's five wounds. This chalice, luciferic by origin, divine by destination, is named Grail. Its wardens are knights enlisted into a military order having its headquarters in a mysterious and impervious place by the name of Monsalvat. Hence the knights set out to bring mankind the medicines it needs, to defend the oppressed, and to redress downtrodden rights. But not all the knights have stayed faithful; evil forces try to win over as many of them as possible, and the ranks of deserters form the army of Monsalvat's bitterest foes.
This legend's secret meaning does not concern us here, but only such hints as are necessary to explain the symbol, whose essence ought to be clear by now, consisting in a spirit of Christian charity and mercy served by an enlightened mind and a chivalrous and enthusiastic heart. A knight errant may not tell a lie; formidable as the foes may be, a righteous one cannot be conquered in an ordeal, a merciful one cannot but be human and kind, a Christian hero cannot but be lovable.
Whatever the moral height of the native, foreign is the country where he is called to act, his outward appearance is nimble and attractive, his wedding princely. Should other components allow, he would belong either to a secret sect or to the militant Church.
Kozminsky (Neptune):
Symbol: An ancient warrior on his knees, with a cross sword stuck in the ground before him, praying.
Denotes one who is mixed up in life's battles and fights for every advantage. Gifted with endurance and a penetrative mind, he wins his way through obstacles only to meet more obstacles later on. But he knows, for all this, that the Power sustaining him is faithful, and he prays for peace in the midst of war. It is a symbol of Contrition.
Muir (Neptune):
Great endurance and fidelity, having the faith to continue in spite of obstacles.
Leinbach (Neptune):
This degree represents the most undeveloped of the Scorpio qualities. There is the dead weight philosophy of fatalism coupled with a masochistic drive to suffer. He may throw himself blindly into some kind of work but for some reason seems not to reap any reasonable benefit from his efforts. He is most likely to miss coming to grips with life in any way to produce an awareness of either the good or the bad of the action going on around him. He somehow remains detached from all meaningful contact. Of course, this is never the only degree to be stimulated in a chart. The course may be charted more clearly elsewhere and perhaps the real nature of this degree has not yet been seen in its true light. It will, however, add to the load rather than lighten it.
Weber (Neptune):
Hopeful, acquiescing Pisces is strong here with passionate Scorpio - a militant crusader, a faithful friend, dedicated to service or "the cause", often changing old and useless things by secretive but usually peaceful means, employing ancient wisdom and occult methods in some cases. Fear and superstition, prejudicial and illogical. Attracted to chemicals, research, inventing the curative medicines of the future, or maybe a public transportation worker helping to speed the masses on their way. If overly ambitious or a gambler, trouble lies ahead. Romantically attracted to ideas or causes, often due to underlying selfish sexual motives.
Henson (Neptune):
May be an art collector or a person who works hard at some branch of art with little remuneration; business; associated with explosions (of nuclear plants) and bombings; the center of regeneration; the Eagle point; carefulness or (under affliction) carelessness; not a powerful degree; hardly typical of Scorpio; right ovary; cochlear head.
Cochrane (Neptune):
Reflective, contemplative. Mature outlook. Capable of deep thought and concentration. Loves simple beauties. Pleasant and kind. (LIB-12-TAU, CAP-3-LEO)
Pluto
Sabian Symbol (Pluto):
Original from M. E. Jones: A bride with her veil snatched away. Keyword: Invitation
Rudhyar version: After The Wedding, The Groom Snatches The Veil Away From His Bride
Charubel (Pluto):
Symbol: Several figures of eight in a row, thus 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8. Thus you see the square of eight.
Denotes a man, or woman, of mystery; a lover of the mystical; a student of the mystical; a secretive person; a profound understanding; he will leave for himself a name in history.
La Volasfera (Pluto):
Symbol: A woman blindfold, and a man leading her.
It denotes a person of a weak yet seductive nature, one who will have much influence upon the other sex, and who may be led into dangerous relations with them, so that the life may be compared only to a tangled skein in which the complications are more various than the materials which enter into them. It is a degree of ENTANGLEMENT.
Matthews (Pluto):
Symbol: "ENTANGLEMENT"
Fate has marked this degree for something unusual. Interested in mystical things. Often gives special interest or ability for astrological work.
Carelli (Pluto):
The native is a mystic and a sensualist, as fond of research into mysterious things as of the opposite sex, and exerts a marked influence upon its representatives. For all his mysticism, the native is a ruthless egotist, and for all his lustfulness he is a weakling; he may seduce and rape but will meet trouble in the end. His erotic relations ought, however, to stay hidden as far as it depends on him, as few people have such discretion and reserve.
His true force lies in his penetrating mind. Should other factors curb his erotic excesses, he would force his way forward through sheer intelligence and would end by making his own name famous. A dark, perhaps swarthy, complexion. Red is his favorite color.
Kozminsky (Pluto):
Symbol: A horseman holding with difficulty a rearing horse.
Denotes one who is drawn into rash ventures and who will be forced to work hard to save those things truly his own. He may be too dependent on his strength, which he overtaxes, or on his resources, which he overstrains. The rising planet contains the warning. It is a symbol of Grappling.
Muir (Pluto):
Independent and self-sufficient until circumstances compel him to broaden his horizon.
Leinbach (Pluto):
Here the physical passions and feelings are well-developed. Perhaps from the Capricorn influence on the degree there is very good business ability. There is a certain amount of sympathy which contributes vulnerability but not nearly as serious as indicated by some other degrees. Overall, this native has well-balanced beneficial abilities. He has strong steady character which is nevertheless open to reason. There are artistic tastes, gentleness and understanding not too likely to go amiss. He works at a steady pace completing what he undertakes.
Weber (Pluto):
Aries' influence adds fire to deep-feeling Scorpio, making for a mystic, seer or perhaps a religious or cult fanatic, often with the power to manipulate others (usually members of the opposite sex) for gain. Penetrating, aggressive mind; useful in the military or in dangerous or nighttime tasks - can be hard and mean, and likely to attract the same. Respects fear and can skirt danger, usually, and if willing to use more Libran cooperation and be fairness conscious, it could become successful in dark and usual vocations. Often religious which helps calm negative tendencies.
Henson (Pluto):
Circle activities; gives a special interest and ability for astrology; fate has marked this degree for something unusual; interested in mystical things; disgrace, selfishness, egotism, immorality, meanness, melancholy, unhappiness of mind, and fear of poison; unreasonableness and shamelessness; abdominal aorta.
Cochrane (Pluto):
Easily annoyed by trivial things. Persistent, precise, responsible worker. Ability for detailed, exacting tasks. May vacillate between extreme neatness and extreme sloppiness. (LEO-12-CAP, VIR-1-AQU)
Ascendant
Sabian Symbol (Ascendant):
Original from M. E. Jones: A very old man facing a vast dark space to the northeast. Keyword: Sanction
Rudhyar version: A Very Old Man Facing A Vast Dark Space To The Northeast
Charubel (Ascendant):
Symbol: A man, standing before an audience, with all the paraphernalia of a juggler.
This denotes one having all-round accomplishments. He is never at a loss through lack of resources. He is capable of turning his hand or his wits to anything.
La Volasfera (Ascendant):
Symbol: A bunch of spring flowers, over which is set a bright star which flashes and sparkles in a deep blue atmosphere.
It indicates a person of poetical and gentle disposition, fond of sublime subjects and the study of nature in its gentler phases; may be a botanist or astronomer, or one with a strong taste for such associations. In early life this individual will rise to a good position, and if not born into at illustrious family will marry a person of high rank or fame. In all cases the native attains a good position and generally marries early into a family devoted to the fine arts. It is a degree of SUCCESS.
Matthews (Ascendant):
Symbol: "EMOTION"
A critical degree. Gives great energy. This has been called a degree of severity, cruelty or punishment. A person of great emotions. Religion or lack of lack of it, sometimes plays a part. May work with publicity or insurance.
Carelli (Ascendant):
An inborn nobility, such as to raise a peasant's son to a higher status on account of his native superiority; a natural sway over others, high feelings, kind manners. The native's judgment will be right and will be listened to. He will be fond of art and, in art, of the sublime. Though usually smooth mannered, he might become boisterous at times owing to an excessive emotivity.
His mind's adaptable manifoldness is, so to speak, boundless, and will balk at no practical problem. His favorite sciences are natural history (especially botany) and mathematics (above all, astronomy); among arts, poetry and painting and among crafts, goldsmithy. Whether practicing them or not, the native will become a protector of arts as soon as he can.
A fresh, healthy complexion, possibly doomed to wither early.
The native's marriage partner should come of a noble family; famous through its old lineage or through artistic achievements or otherwise. Usually there is plenty of luck, but the other components must be recognized.
Kozminsky (Ascendant):
Symbol: A crab climbing up an upright iron spear, above which is a circlet of seven stars.
Denotes one who, never daunted by obstacles, opposition, and hardship, will rise by his own effort to a position of dignity and importance in his special sphere. Uniting an iron will to stubbornness of purpose, the native proves his worth, and triumphs. It is a symbol of Irrefragability.
Muir (Ascendant):
Undaunted by obstacles he rises to a position of prominence in middle life, but is considered willful and stubborn.
Leinbach (Ascendant):
This degree is productive of a keen mind with the utmost ability to ferret out intricate patterns. It grants a mind capable of dealing with subtle meanings. The memory is excellent, grasping information quickly and easily, and then retaining it until the meanings of many otherwise disconnected bits of information fall into place in a coherent manner. Such a mind is capable of being severe or even cruel in getting to the point. A lawyer with this degree prominent would go to extremes to pursue a point, while walking a tight logical line. Religion may play a part in this native's development. However, any philosophy adhered to by this native would have to be very well supported by solid thinking. He will look not alone for evidence of perfection to the letter. He more deeply demands perfection of function. Any subtle weaknesses will be dislodged and questioned. Along with these abilities there is great sensitivity which results in awareness. There are often problems in marriage. Because of these qualities, even when used with compassion, he may be felt to be hyper-critical and fault-finding. There is great devotion to home; however, the family will not be able to deter him from his path. There is great difficulty in making a start at times, but once a direction has been established he makes remarkable progress because the difficulties have long since been eliminated. There is an insatiable thirst for knowledge which never slackens from the cradle to the grave.
Weber (Ascendant):
Busy, emotional, artistic, apt to rise quickly in status, and attracts a great many love interests. Success in general and good, usually stable marriage. Drawn to arts, opinionated, and with double air influence of Gemini/Libra puts ideas to use, and creates superior works of art.
Henson (Ascendant):
Business ability, music; singleness of purpose; may work with publicity or insurance, math ability; can work in solitude; religion, or lack of it, sometimes plays a part; a person of great emotions; gives great energy; severity, cruelty, or punishment; honor, renown, custodians, guardians, curator; high offices in the government; abdominal walls.
Cochrane (Ascendant):
Unusual creative power. Strives to enhance the quality of his work or service. (VIR-3-SAG-6, SCO-5-AQU)
Midheaven
Sabian Symbol (MC):
Original from M. E. Jones: Spiritualist phenomena. Keyword: Sensitivity
Rudhyar version: A "Materializing" Medium Giving A Seance
Charubel (MC):
Symbol: A column of smoke ascending on a gigantic scale, followed by a terrible burst of flame. The phenomenon partakes of the character of an explosion.
This degree is subtle, its events are sudden, always falling out unexpectedly, and generally disastrously. He or she having this degree ascending should exercise caution in every undertaking, as such persons will be in danger of sudden losses in life, and a sad death. NOTE: THIS IS NOT FATE, but there will ever be a tendency in the direction already mentioned.
La Volasfera (MC):
Symbol: A warrior in helmet drawing a long bow to which the fletch is duly set.
This symbol is capable of two renderings, the first of which points to a strong character, a set purpose, a lofty aim, and in some particular sense the gift of prophecy and knowledge of future events. On the other hand, there is the weakness which depends on the hazard of life, the carelessness or indifference which arises from lack of interest and finds expression in vanity and self-inflation. At its best it signifies the higher indifference which affects the mind secure of its achievements, in the worst case it denotes improvidence and carelessness, a life set upon a hazard. It is a degree of SPECULATION.
Matthews (MC):
Symbol: "PATRIOTIC"
Quick wit, usually positive in his thinking. Impulsive and enthusiastic, yet able to concentrate. Aim is lofty.
Carelli (MC):
Symbol: An old Frank in battle harness; his hair, kept uncut according to the worriers' custom, is wound into a topknot from which it falls loose on his nape. He hurls the double axe at his foe.
Here the axe blow of fatal determination is symbolized. Either the native's character is firm and manly, capable of initiative, certain of his aim and apt to snatch the right moment for action, or he is simply not up to his destiny and, high as his aspirations may be, he will shirk or rush through, give up before trying his luck, or waver, foam with rage or let things take care of themselves with a swaggering nonchalance for which there is not the slightest foundation.
Prophetic foresight is a feature, which may lead the native to try his luck at hazardous games or ruinous arbitrage.
Kozminsky (MC):
Symbol: A heap of broken arms and military trappings lying in a muddy pool.
Denotes one who will know the poverty of aggression and who will suffer from the effects of his actions and intentions. He will understand that what is gained by force may become a curse instead of a blessing, and why the so-called glories of ancient Rome became so many daggers at her throat when the results of her deeds brought her to earth. Let the native prove his power in a greater way than by contention. Let him clear his mind and control himself if he can. It is a symbol of Militancy.
Muir (MC):
Hasty, impulsive and erratic yet filled with remorse as he views the sorrow his actions have caused.
Leinbach (MC):
There is a strong influence towards emotional values, artistic qualities, and sensuous living stimulated by this degree. It cannot be denied that the degree is particularly ominous where women are concerned. A woman often spells ruin for a man. In a woman's chart she usually prevails but at great cost to her honor. These problems are always due to misconceptions of the true value of relationships and clinging to false values. However, many of these people become so ensnared that they lose all the otherwise very creative and artistic abilities they might have profitably contributed to the world. When they become so entangled, there is no reasoning with them. It is hoped that most of them have overcome the worst of the trials indicated here and that they are ready to make better use of their sensitive emotions and creative qualities.
Weber (MC):
Attractive but confused, changeable degree (Libra/Aquarius); commercial, but unstable, always looking for the middle ground, and usually unable to recognize it. Soft. Dislikes vulgar or ugly situations. Fond of arts, novelty, bizarre methods of behavior. Seldom remains still long enough to enjoy and reap the rewards of achievements, which are often group-oriented enterprises. Must avoid underhanded tactics, unfairness, and selfishness. Romance is favored; likely to have many as it looks for a soul-mate who is, however, just a matter of perception.
Henson (MC):
Music, patriotic, hairdresser; art; medical fields; insanity; quick wit, usually positive in his thinking; impulsive and enthusiastic, yet able to concentrate; aim is lofty; appendicitis; Achilles heel of left foot.
Cochrane (MC):
Self-confident, energetic, and strong-willed. Good leadership qualities. Strong views. May be too intense and domineering.(SAG-10-SCO, LEO-6-CAN)
