Free Astrology Advice: Horary Astrology – Which Guy Should I Choose?
January 4, 2007 by admin
Question:
I am 25 and I am in a horrible dilemma. I have been in a relationship for 3 years, and it has been working just fine. I met my boyfriend in college and we were friends before falling in love. Ten days ago I met another guy, but he isn’t a complete stranger either. He was my desk mate at school 10 years ago, he used to be in love with me, but he left the country. I haven’t seen him until now. We met by chance in the street and then we went out for a simple date and something strange happened: I felt an incredible attraction for him. I didn’t cheat on my boyfriend, but I feel as if I did. Now he tells me that he loves me and he would come back home for me if I ask him to. I don’t know what to do, I don’t want to hurt my boyfriend but I don’t want to lose the other guy, either.
Everything is so complicated. The new guy has a life outside the country and coming back home implies a lot of changes. I know almost nothing about him, but I have fallen in love with him. What should I do? Should I try to work things out with my boyfriend or should I start a relationship with the new guy?

Nina Gryphon:
Dear R.,
That is quite a dilemma that you are facing, though I suspect that this is one of those things that will become clear in and of itself with a little bit of time. I suspect that you will figure out whether the other guy was really serious about you – will he stay in contact after leaving the country, and so on.
I cast a horoscope for the moment I understood your question, using a method known as horary astrology. This method is very old, and it works on the principle that the answer to your question is contained in the horoscope for the moment of the question. It used to be very popular back when people didn’t know their time or date of birth, or simply couldn’t afford a full natal reading. This method works very well for questions that are specific and immediate. The horoscope for your horary question is below:
In this horoscope, you are shown by Venus, ruler of the first house of self, and the Moon, which shows your emotions. Venus is just exiting Virgo, the sign where it was very weak because it was in its fall. It is moving into its own sign of Libra, so we can see that you are about to make a decision that will strengthen you and will generally improve things.
The first order of business is identifying the two men in the chart; we have only one house — the seventh house — that represents significant others. However, we have two significant others in the chart. So one of them will be the old boyfriend and the other will be the new guy. We see that both Venus and the Moon are about to move into signs strongly influenced by Saturn; Venus will exalt Saturn in Libra, while the Moon will be in Saturn’s sign of Capricorn shortly. What is Saturn doing in the chart? It is in Leo, where it is very weak, because it is in the sign of its detriment. It is also strongly influenced by the ruler of Leo, the Sun. The Moon has just separated from a trine of Saturn. So Saturn is one of our guys.
However, we also have the look at the seventh house of partners, because one of the men will be shown by this house and its ruler. The seventh house is ruled by Mars, which is in Libra in the first house. The physical attraction of this particular Mars man is shown by the Sun, which is also in Libra in the first house. So we can see that the Mars man is very interested in you, because both of his significators are in your sign of Libra.
Since we know that the Sun shows the physical nature of one of the men, we can see that Saturn is very much at the mercy of the other man. However, the feeling is mutual, because in Libra, the Sun and Mars exalts Saturn, attributing more influence to the other man than he really has.
Most likely, Saturn is the current boyfriend, and Mars is the new guy. We know that the new guy appears to be very much in love with you, so we can see that the two significators in your house are probably his. However, with Venus moving into the detriment of Mars and the fall of the Sun, we most likely see you coming back to your boyfriend and rejecting the new guy (perhaps because the new guy will not stay in touch or being with him would be impractical for some reason). Nonetheless, with the Moon moving into Capricorn, your feelings will go back to your boyfriend (Saturn rules Capricorn), but will exalt Mars — and you will likely have fond memories and thoughts of what could have been with your old schoolmate.

I know we have to let the chart guide us to the proper significators as you did here, but would we also be inclined to use the 7th house for the ‘new guy’ because he is what precipitated the question in the first place?
Dear Gary,
Sadly, no. Sometimes the person may ask about Mr. X, but the real question is about Mr. Y – we have no way of knowing what the querent was thinking. This is why the receptions are the only reliable way to decide between two (or three, or four, in some of my consultations) significant others. I wish it were that easy!
Warmly,
Nina
