What significance does the Capricorn Ascendant have in the Solar Return and how should you work with this influence?
Annual Ascendant in Capricorn
If this year your Solar Revolution Ascendant is Capricorn ♑, take into account the following tips and advice to work with this influence:
- With this ascendant you will have a practical, realistic and mature approach when acting and making decisions during the year.
- Impulsive, impractical or very emotional attitudes in other people will stop your drive and initiative. Stay away from these types of people.
- Faced with the obstacles that may arise during the year, you will tend to get very stressed, worry and generate anxiety, so relax and control these tendencies.
- With Capricorn in the 1st house in the annual chart, there is the challenge of avoiding rigid, pessimistic or very pragmatic attitudes that affect your relationships.
- In appearance or temperament, other people may perceive you as colder, more serious or distant than usual during the period.
- Your obligations, commitments and ambitions will have priority in the year for you, but remember to also dedicate time to relax.
- During the years in which Capricorn falls in the ascendant we can start projects that seek medium or long-term results.
- This is a year in which your commitment, work, effort, sacrifice and persistence will bear fruit. Maintain this focus.
The Solar Return is a predictive technique whose validity period extends from the moment of one’s birthday to the next birthday. The Solar Return map or chart reflects the configurations of the sky at the time and place where the person is when the Sun returns to the same point where he was when he was born.
Saturn, ruler of the Ascendant in the Solar Return
Every planet has a sign that rules it and the ruling planet of the sign that is located at the beginning of the 1st house is called the Ruler of the Ascendant. If you are Capricorn Ascendant in the annual return, your ruler will be Saturn and this star is very important in the annual chart since it indicates your potential for action and possibilities for the year. The house where Saturn is located when your annual Ascendant is Capricorn will have a lot of weight when making the interpretation.
For example, if Saturn is located in the 7th house, the relationships, partnerships or agreements of the year will be very important and decisive in achieving your purposes. It is very likely that in the topics and areas related to the house where Saturn is, you will have to make decisions, be a protagonist, promote initiatives or act in some sense. For example, when Saturn is located in the 4th house, we may be focused on changing residence or resolving a family matter during the year. The aspects that this ruler receives are related to scripts that will be repeated throughout the year when we have to face situations or act. For example, if Mars makes a square with Saturn (ruler of the Ascendant) we are in a year in which there may be a tendency for many conflicts to arise.
Aspects to the Capricorn Ascendant in the Solar Return
The partial aspects (less than 1 degree) that the Ascendant degree of the Solar Return receives are very important in the interpretation and largely determine what the year will be like. If Mars makes an exact trine to the annual Ascendant, it will be a very dynamic year where you will be able to carry out successful endeavors and enjoy determination. If Venus is in partile conjunction to the Ascendant of the year you can have experiences that will make you very happy or you may find love if you do not have a partner and if Neptune is in square to the Ascendant it is possible that you will experience some disappointments, disappointments or confusing situations during the year. .
Relocation of the Solar Return
Every year around the birthday the Sun returns to the point where it was at the time of birth, starting a new solar cycle and the place where we are at that moment determines how the houses of the Solar Revolution will be located. The positions of planets by sign and the planetary aspects do not vary, but the positions of planets and signs in the houses do.
In this sense, Relocation is a technique through which the best possible place to spend the birthday is sought and in this way soften the inharmonic configurations present in the birthday sky and enhance the harmonics. For example, if for a certain city your Ascendant is Capricorn and you have Saturn in exact or partile square with Mars, it is a good idea to spend your birthday in another city where the Ascendant is not Capricorn to reduce the strength of the inharmonious aspect of Saturn with Mars.
