Lance's 2020 SSR

[Lance]

Okay, so my 2020 SSR for Beaumont, TX has Saturn and Pluto angular, with t.Saturn square t.Sun, 2°8'.

If I get in my car and run five hours away to Biloxi, MS for my SSR, it pushes Saturn back just beyond 10° from my Asc.

It will still have t.Saturn square t.Sun, 2°8', but it should be better.

Think that will be enough?

Transiting Saturn isn't partile square your Sun - they are nearly 2° - so if it isn't foreground it doesn't count.

You'll still have the transit itself during the year, and it will be operative when exact - but it won't be a feature of the entire year.

No transiting factors are super strong in the SSR, e.g., Saturn is about 6° from Ascendant, Pluto 8°. Natal Mercury is strongest for Beaumont and transiting Mercury is strongest for Biloxi.

If you want to push a little harder for a better result, there are places in southeast New Mexico that have Jupiter rising. It's on the other side of Texas, and Texas is big, but planting Jupiter as close to 0°00' from Ascendant would set a nice tone.

So, if I went to Albuquerque, NM, that would put Jupiter almost precisely on the Asc. (I don’t have my laptop at work, so this is all viewed ecliptically.)

Also in Albuquerque, Mercury and Uranus become big angular players when they otherwise wouldn’t be.

But that also moves Saturn and Pluto *closer* to the Asc. than they would be if just stayed in Beaumont, TX.

That would be overall better even with Saturn and Pluto closer to the angle?

Jupiter, Uranus, and Mercury sounds exciting, but it seems like there are sharks in those waters too!

It won’t be easy. I’m trying to determine if it will be worth the trouble.

Jupiter is about two and a half degrees off - still closer, though you can get it closer. Mercury is partile. The five foreground planets arte:

Mercury 0°52'
Jupiter 2°44'
Uranus 3°06'
Pluto 5°28'
Saturn 7°08'

You can see the various mundane aspects from this.

Here is map of New Mexico showing where the Jupiter (slanted purple) and Uranus (vertical sky blue) lines.

Oooh, you know where that is? That's Roswell. Want to have a Jupiter-Uranus good time with Mercurial; overtones in Roswell?

For the center of Roswell coordinaters:

Mercury 27°40'
Uranus 29°57'
Jupiter 0°02'
Pluto 2°58'
Saturn 4°44'

If you want to get it even closer.

To put this in perspective, Artesia is about 40 miles from Roswell, so about 25 miles south and less than five miles west of Roswell is the spot. The longitude for Uranus on IC is 104W34. By trial and error, the latitude on that longitude where Jupiter exactly rises is 33N03.

For 33N03 104W34, here is the mundoscope of the proposed SSR for your own personal "Roswell incident."

As a point of reference, the intersection of highways 285 and 13 is 33N05, 104W27. About seven miles west of that intersection on 13 might be as close as you can get.
