In the See-Saw chart, the planets are divided into two groups
that must be (according
to Marc Edmund Jones) at least 60 or 70 degrees apart. There has
to be a minimum of two planets in each group (if one 揼roup?
has only one planet, you have a funnel
horoscope, which is completely different).
The See-Saw makes it easier for you to see both sides of
every situation. It also can increase your awareness of other
people. This makes See-Saw people different from those with a bundle
horoscope, who tend to be more self-absorbed.
An interesting example is the chart of Stefi
Graf. Interesting, isn't it that she became a champion in
tennis where the ball is hit back and forth in see-saw fashion?
She has an evenly balanced
See-Saw
with 5 planets on each side.
The empty space on the bottom is 90 degrees and 150 degrees on the
top. Notice that there are two
singletons.
Mars, the planet of energy and aggression, is the only planet in a
fire sign, and fire has to do with self-assertion as well. Neptune
(dreams and ideals) is her only planet in a water sign (emotion).
Both funnel the 揺nergy?of her horoscope to the
6th House
(work) so everything focuses on her job. Mars (energy and
aggression) and Saturn (discipline) both make close aspects to her
Mid-Heaven (career), a perfect setup for a sports champion. Saturn
is also a restrictive influence, and it sits right on top of
Stefi's Venus (love) tending to stifle that part of her life and
concentrate more energy on work.
Too bad
Whitney Houston
didn't go in for sports
instead of singing. Her chart is every bit as explosive as Stefi
Graf's. Unfortunately, since there are no opponents in music,
all of the turmoil comes out in well publicized fights with her
husband. Whitney's horoscope has seven planets in the right hand
group and three on the left. This is a so-called 搑oyal
chart? Whoever gave it that name was being sarcastic. What it
really means is that these folks can't do anything all by
themselves. They always have to have somebody else around to get
anything off the ground. Just like Stefi, Whitney has Saturn
aspecting her Mid-Heaven. This increases the discipline needed for
success. But Whitney also has Jupiter (luck) throwing a
trine
aspect
(120 degrees, and this makes things even easier). Most of
the charts of people successful in show business have
Jupiter
aspecting the Mid-Heaven. The Sun and Moon both aspect it as well,
which is good if you have to come before the public. But Mars and
Pluto (battle planets) are in the
7th House
(marriage and
partnership) and we all know how that worked out.
Saturn, in
addition, is opposite her
Sun, and that tends to make marriage
difficult as well.
