- 0:09With that being said, when we say masculine and feminine, off top, people's minds go to male, female.
- 0:21But astrologically speaking, it has nothing to do with male.
- 0:27Female.
- 0:31Yeah, it has nothing to do with your.
- 0:33Your.
- 0:35Your sex organs either.
- 0:36No, no, no, not at all.
- 0:41So to begin with, one of the first steps in determining a planet's condition in a chart is how masculine or how feminine planet that is in question.
- 0:57Do you have a feminine planet that's an.
- 1:00In extreme feminine conditions, or does this feminine planet lean more towards a masculine expression?
- 1:09Is this masculine planet more rough, rugged and raw, or does it lean more towards a feminized expression?
- 1:17Do you know the masculine planets, Walter?
- 1:23Yeah.
- 1:25Sun, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, if I'm not mistaken, right?
- 1:35Are the masculine planets.
- 1:36And what are the feminine planets?
- 1:41Venus and the moon.
- 1:42I don't know why they only have two feminine and the rest are masculine.
- 1:47But.
- 1:48Well, like the song says, this is a man's world.
- 1:56Well, exactly.
- 1:56We can.
- 1:57We can.
- 1:57We can probably attribute that to.
- 2:00To, you know, to the patriarchy.
- 2:03But.
- 2:04But actually, I will say so.
- 2:08So, for example, Jupiter, when Jupiter is in sag, that's its most masculine expression.
- 2:14But when it's in Pisces, like it is right now, it's that Jupiter and Pisces is basically expressing, like, its feminine quality.
- 2:22So it's.
- 2:23It's softer, like you said, it's gentler, it's slower, it's more receptive, it's more intuitive.
- 2:32Well, you.
- 2:32You jump in the head a little bit, but.
- 2:36I'm giving an example.
- 2:38Yeah, I would.
- 2:39I would agree with you.
- 2:40I would agree with you.
- 2:42We did leave a planet out.
- 2:48Do you know which one?
- 2:52For the.
- 2:53For the feminine.
- 2:54Yeah, for the masculine and feminine, we did leave the planet out.
- 2:59Which one?
- 3:01Mercury.
- 3:03Ah, okay.
- 3:05But Mercury is a hermaphrodite.
- 3:09What does.
- 3:09What does hermaphrodite mean?
- 3:12It's both.
- 3:14It could be either or.
- 3:15Yes, Mercury can be either masculine or feminine.
- 3:19Do you know what determines Mercury's masculinity?
- 3:27The sign that it's in?
- 3:30No, it depends on if it rises before or after the sun.
- 3:38Okay, so if it rises.
- 3:41If it rises before the sun, it's masculine.
- 3:45Correct.
- 3:48And if it rises after the sun, it's more feminine.
- 3:51Correct.
- 3:52I.
- 3:52I was gonna say you basically want to have.
- 3:55Well, not that you want to, but so, like, if the sun is first in your chart and then Mercury comes after you see the sun on top of Mercury, basically the Mercury is more feminine.
- 4:11Depending on.
- 4:12If you are looking at your chart, you have to remember that the planets move counterclockwise in the same signs.
- 4:21Move.
- 4:22No, the planets move clockwise.
- 4:25No, counterclockwise.
- 4:28Counterclockwise.
- 4:29And the signs move clockwise.
- 4:33Either.
- 4:33Or one of those.
- 4:35When you looking at the.
- 4:36No, I think I.
- 4:37I think you got it right.
- 4:39I got it right?
- 4:41Yeah.
- 4:41All right.
- 4:41Yeah, I think you got it right.
- 4:43All right.
- 4:43So when you looking at the.
- 4:46Your birth chart.
- 4:48Planets.
- 4:48If the sun.
- 4:49Let's just say the sun is in your first house.
- 4:55Planets.
- 4:55That if Mercury's in the 12th, 11th, it rose before the sun.
- 4:59If it's.
- 5:00If it's in the second, it rose after the sun.
- 5:08Got it.
- 5:11All right.
- 5:12Now that.
- 5:13Now that we established the planets, the next thing we need to establish is the masculine and feminine signs.
