Exercises in Aimed Solar Returnsfrom the Blog of Ciro Discepolo (70)

Dear Ciro,I trust you are very well after your partly resting, partly “working”

vacation. Hope it was productive and satisfying:).I would be very thankful to you if you could help me identifying the right

place for my 2013 Solar Return. I see a constellation of planets in my 12thhouse of SR, Pluto in my SR MC, etc.

Could you please also tell me if there is anything I can do in advance aswell. I have observed for years that the SR starts its effects 3-4 monthsbefore its actual date, I am afraid that I may experience some of the negativeeffects soon. Please advise.

Vicky’s data: 9 February 1963/Dobrich, BG/6:30 a.m.; 27e50 East,43n34 Nord.

Thank you very much for helping me with my 2013 ASR.Best regards,Vicky

Dear Vicky,I advise you for the chart of New Zealand, but I think that you will not

go there. Then I suggest you another for Russia.The beginning of an Aimed Solar Retur 3-4 months before the Return

has never happened in 42 years of my practice and in 25.000 ASRs followedtightly by me. Best wishes.

Dear Ciro,Thank you for your message on the blog!I have another question,too, as regards the charts for the birth of a

love story.If Venus is on the AS and Saturn is also in the 1st house, but not in

conjunction with the AS, is it a good chart?What if a nice Venus is on the AS, the Sun and the Moon are in good

condition and Saturn is on the MC? Is it still a good chart for love with theSaturn on MC?

Thank you!Georgiana Costescu

Dear Georgiana,a Saturn closed to the Ascendant or to the MC shows us sad people,

severe, but this is absolutely independent from the quality of the love.In a lot of couples formed by a student and an old teacher, the love will

be different from that passionate of two young people, but it will not badbecause it responds to a precise mythology.

A dear regard.

Dear Ciro,Again I ask, but must apologize.Is there a place where we might send my father in our native United

States? He is being understandably stubborn regarding flying to Norwich,England as you've suggested.

Birth: October 31, 1942 10:16 PM Eastern War Time -- Jersey City,NJ Anonymous

Current Place of Return is Fresh Meadows, NY 40.44N 73.47WAnywhere nearby in the United States we may send him, to remove

Mars from the 6th, and Pluto from the Descendant? Is Jupiter in the 12thenough to protect from harm? This is a 12th house return...

Thank you,Michael from New York

Dear Michael,you strongly put me in difficulty. When I knew that my father and my

mother were about to die (but the physicians didn't know this) I never triedto make to depart them for an Aimed Solar Return because they didn'tbelieve in this marvelous possibility that the sky has given us.

I have found you the only possibility in the United States of Americawhere your father will have less risks: Barrow, in Alaska; but it deals with amediocre Aimed Solar Return that I would not recommend even to one

8

enemy of mine.It is my opinion that you should not accept the "whims" of your father: or

he departs or he doesn't depart. However I send you many wishes.

Dear Ciro,Please help me find a good location for Richard’s 2013 SR. I am having

difficulty finding a suitable location for 2013. I keep finding the Sun or Marsin unacceptable positions in 2013.

The best I came up with is Paris, France, where he will be happy tospend his birthday, but Mars falls in the 8 house, which is better than the 1stor 6 or 12. But you say you don’t like Saturn in the 10th.

Would Madrid, Spain be any better? Saturn falls in 11 house but Uranusgets very close to the cuspid of 4th house. Also, his 2013 birthday is veryclose to the new moon.

Any comments on a new moon birthday? The Sun/Moon will be in 10thin either Paris or Madrid.

Richard’s birth data: Born October 5, 1941 at 1945 hrs in Springfield,IL, USA

Best regards.Eva

ASR 2012 Barrow Alaska For Michael Father

Dear Eva,for the next Aimed Solar Return of Richard we have to choose the least

bad ASR and not the best.We have to discard Paris and Madrid because there is there, in both

cases, Saturn in X House. Uranus closed to the Imum Coeli of the sky isnot a problem.

In the Active Astrology we don't consider the charts of New Moon.If you have some doubts on what we consider in our school, you can

make above all reference to two books, those that you see under.Transits and Solar Returns is sold out, but it will be available in few

weeks or in 2-3 months.I advise you Fort Franklin, Nortwest Territories, Canada, near Fort

Simpson were I was some months ago. But watch out to the birth timeof Richard!

Best regards.

Dear Ciro,do you see chances of a good pregnancy for me (unfortunately I’m already

41 years old)?After a few bad years ..., I think I have a good solar return for 2013 with

a stellium in the 10. house, AC in Cancer and moon in the 5. solar house(but unfortunately also Saturn in the 5. solar house).

Also I have good transits Jupiter/Sun and Jupiter/Moon in the 5. housein the middle of next year and this could be a chance ... But also I have an 8.house transit of Saturn.

Should I travel for my next birthday? Can you give me an advice?Here my dates:2. March 1971 Langenau, Germany (10e07, 48n30), Birth time: 07:20 a.m.Kind regards and many thanks!Anonima

Dear Anonima,to try a first pregnancy at 41 years old with Moon and Saturn in the 5^

House of the next your Aimed Solar Return, would be too much risky indeed.The transits, if they are of opposite sign to the positions of the sky of the

Solar Return, they value zero.Well, if you want to try, made to make all the preventive medical

examinations, inclusive that of the toxoplasmosis, and if the physician saysthat you can try, then spend your next birthday to Lisbon that will protect alot you in this project, but not in total way.

Best wishes.
