1 ? D- I'll say artist, probably painting or visual arts. Mars R1 in 5 (the arts, entertainment), conj Saturn and aspected by Jupiter (R5 and 2). Jupiter at MC (vocation) in 11 (earnings form profession). Sun R10 in 2 ("his work is his family"; visual and observational acuity, "cosmetics").

2 ? D -famous for his manner of death (Jupiter out of sect R2 on MC, trined by NN)

3 ? A ? Never married and rarely dated (NN in 7 on DSC, Saturn aspects 7 and 2, Venus R7 (and 12) unaspected in 4 (ruled by Saturn)

4 ? A ?I'll say no ? since he rarely dated? but Mars R1 in 5 with Saturn R4 opp Jupiter R5 looks ambiguous.

5 ?D - H6 not afflicted, so not specially sickly physically, but mental health pb : SN on asc, waning Moon in H12, NN aspects Mercury (trine). Can't say whether 2nd part of life.

6 ? C- above average longevity (Mars R1 conj Saturn R3, Mercury R8 in 3 ruled by Saturn)

7 ? A - Violent death: Yes: SN on Asc , Jupiter R2 (death) and MC opposed by Mars and trined by NN, Jupiter trines Mercury R8 (longevity) in 3 (life force). H8 squared by Mars.

Hi Graham,

Thanks for starting this thread in the Sidereal forum and giving your own answers. To avoid having posters opening a seperate window if they want to reply in this forum, I've replicated the introduction, chart and questions below:

To refine things somewhat, I have asked 7 multiple choice questions which concern fundamental life issues such as occupation, health and relationships. Obviously, it is expected that posters will give an astrological explanation for picking an answer, no matter how brief or detailed that explanation is. The natal chart is shown in the tropical and sidereal zodiacs and the Alcabitus house system is used but of course posters can choose their own (traditional) house system to delineate the chart.

I will reveal the person's identity and the answers to the questions in five days time (Friday the 15th). If anyone wants clarity about something related to the natal chart or the questions, then I'll gladly reply.

Sidereal zodiac (Lahiri):

Thank you Stellarium.
I thoroughly messed that one up.
What I have learned is that I should have taken more notice, as mentioned in the tropical forum, of the T-square involving Sun against the Saturn+mars - Jupiter+MC opposition.
In terms of Indian aspects, this also means that Saturn has full aspect of 10 on Sun R10.
Jupiter on MC trined by NN could give the "legend in lifetime". The SN on ASC doesn't seem to have had any major negative role here, nor the waning Moon in 12.
I know there's some thing in Indina astro about the 2nd house being involved in career choice, I think because it's partly about things you feel attached and drawn to, or at home with. But I don't see how R10 in 2 (true in both quadrat and and WS) would give a policeman/speaker/boxer.
The Mercury R of MCin 3 could indicate his speaking/communciation skills.
Thnaks again for taking the time to post the exercise.
