Jim, when you have time could you offer in a couple of sentences your bottom line analysis for possible manifestations for my 9/22 SLR pertaining to a speculative market trade covering the time frame for this SLR--thanks.

Sure. Let's start with a complete breakdown, especially since the key factors are competing for closest orb. (Meanwhile: Where do you plan to have your new SSR?)

t Mars on Dsc -7°28'
t Saturn on IC -5°12'
r Mars on MC -4°44'
t Pluto on IC -2°25'
------------------------------------------------
t Ju/Pl = IC +0°08'
t Mercury on EP +0°11'
t Jupiter sq. Asc +0°57'
r Mercury on Asc +3°13'
r Neptune on Asc +7°41'

-- t Saturn op. r Mars 0°28' in mundo
-- t Jupiter sq. r Mercury 0°32' in mundo
-- t Mercury sq. r Mars 0°38'
-- t Mercury-Saturn sq. 0°52' in mundo
-- t Mercury-Mars op. 1°25' in mundo
-- t Mars-Saturn sq. 1°36'
-- t Mercury-Pluto sq. 1°43'
-- t Mars sq. r Mars 2°07'
-- t Pluto op. r Mars 2°19' in mundo
-- t Saturn-Pluto conj. 2°47' in mundo

Non-foreground partile
t Venus conj. r Saturn 0°56'

Whew! I see why you asked for a second opinion. There's a lot going both ways. There are a couple of splendid things and then a whole lot of, "Well, THAT was sure a mistake" sort of stuff.

So... let's be systematic. The one question you asked was:

...bottom line analysis for possible manifestations... pertaining to a speculative market trade covering the time frame for this SLR...

What are the positives?
Jupiter and Pluto are 2° on either side of IC so that their midpoint is 0°08' from the angle. On a simple "closer wins out over weaker," Jupiter (Class 1 angularity) is significantly stronger than Saturn (Class 2 angularity). Jupiter/Pluto has the potential for odds-beating speculative wins. For business matters, both Mercuries are strong. Aside from its place on IC, Jupiter squares Ascendant (partile) which makes it and transiting Mercury the two most angular planets in the chart.

Furthermore, transiting Jupiter squares natal Mercury in the foreground (0°32' in mundo).

These all look like odds-beating advantages and profits in Mercury matters, including commerce.

What are the negatives?
The positives are stronger but the negatives are strong - and are numerous. They are especially found in the strong aspects. The following aspects all show various elements of struggle - of things being harder than we want - and, bottom line, of you somehow hurting yourself.

-- t Saturn op. r Mars 0°28' in mundo
-- t Mercury sq. r Mars 0°38'
-- t Mercury-Saturn sq. 0°52' in mundo
-- t Mercury-Mars op. 1°25' in mundo
-- t Mars-Saturn sq. 1°36'
-- t Mars sq. r Mars 2°07'
-- t Pluto op. r Mars 2°19' in mundo
-- t Saturn-Pluto conj. 2°47' in mundo

Non-foreground partile t Venus conj. r Saturn suggests unhappiness.

The negative aspects aren't Neptunian "oops!" types. Only the Mercury-Saturn is outright "making mistakes, miscalculation," etc. The others are just conflict and some unspecific sense of hurt (with Mercury-Saturn to your Mars taking up the three closest aspects plus a transiting Mars aspecting your Mars and Saturn... etc.

I'm not sure I've given you an answer. Have I given you enough to clarify the decision for yourself? (You know more about what's going on.)

You gave me an answer with much clarity! Your conclusions were exactly my same conclusions for a possible trade. There are so many ways a good trading execution can be screwed-up. Its a dangerous tricky business trading without inside sources on the floor of the exchange---which I no longer have. And besides, the way things stand now I will not have direct access for making the final decision to close the trade out---it will be in a second party hands who may or may not be near the market with eyes and execution on possibly closing out the trade with profits. At the very least, your analysis tells me I better make sure I have direct control over final decisions with my eyes on the market at all times.

I will update if possible initial trade is executed and when it is closed out with profits or loses.

Thanks Jim, your analysis helps a-lot .

t Ju/Pl = IC +0°08'
t Mercury on EP +0°11'
t Jupiter sq. Asc +0°57'
r Mercury on Asc +3°13'

These closest aspects to angles actually do seem splendid. And they do outweigh the negatives since they are partile and angular. Partile Mer and Jup to angles seems like a great time to make money or make good decisions. That Saturn lurking close by is always worrysome though, so I understand your concern.

I remind you of this sections for concurrent angularity:

t. MERCURY & t. JUPITER
"Unless Jupiter happens to be heavily afflicted, its transit of the... angles is always a joyous and auspicious occasion. It presages all-round success and achievement bringing with it advancement and frequently money. When Mercury is with Jupiter, among other things, it usually denotes success in speculation, games of chance, gamgling and the like. It is an excellent day to put 'a flutter on one's fancy.'"
[For comparison, in mundane astrology we see: Diplomatic success, commercial alliances, successful conversations and cooperation. A favorable time for conducting business.]

I wish you tons of luck Steve.
