Every Thursday, I answer astrology questions I’ve received through email or the search bar. If you have a question, contact me and it may be featured next!
How do I find where Venus is transiting my chart right now?
To do this you’ll need a transit chart. Follow the steps to getting your chart, and at the end choose the option there that will add transits to your info.
Around the outer ring of the chart, in green, will be the current positions of all the planets. Look for the Venus symbol- the house it falls in, along with any aspects it’s making to your birth planets, will govern how it is affecting you at the moment.
How can I tell if I have the finger of fate in my chart?
A “finger of fate” is another term for a yod- an aspect pattern made up of three planets. Two are 60° apart from each other, and the third makes a 150° angle to each of them. The formation looks like a skinny pointer, which is how it gets its name. You can look for them easily in your chart- on the Astrodienst design the 150° angles are marked in green, making them easy to point out. The planet at the narrow point receives the most emphasis in this configuration. You can read more about experiencing a transit to a natal yod in The Finger of Fate.
What is Judge Judy’s ascendant?
I really did get this one; I’m not making it up.
Without a accurate birth time there’s know way to know this, but if I’m able to find it I will be happy to post it here.
