Hi. What are your favorite placements in a composite chart? Thank you.

Hello!! Apologies for the delay, hope you are having a good week! Here are some of my favorite aspects in composite:

Aspects to the Moon, especially the Moon-Mercury link, the Moon-Venus link and the Moon-Jupiter In general, having good aspects with the composite Moon will be beneficial to increase the affection, love, and emotional support of the couple. The first link mentioned could bring a telephatic connection, or a relationship that can oppenly talk about their feelings, while the second link bring a nurturing connection filled with love, and the third one a passionate one. The fourth one brings optimism, playfulness, cheerfulness, and a sincere need to make each other happy.

2. Aspects to Mercury (any aspect).

Aspects with Mercury in the composite could potentially increase the duration of the relationship. Why? Because communication is our basic tool to conect with people and see how compatible we are on a mental level along with seeing if both would have the compromise to talk to each other of their needs and interests.

Now, for me, the energy of Moon and Mercury are one of the most crucial points in a composite to see a potential relationship unfold for the long term. In relation to the rest of the planets and signs, I don't have a favorite since those energies will have a different impact on every person. For example, one of the best aspects to have in composite, according to many sources, is a Sun and Venus aspect (especially conjunction, trine, and sextile) because it grants a natural and genuine affection and love. Since I love to read astrological testimonies, I've found that some people with this aspect never felt something significant as many blogs say, so it's up to, not only the aspects and placements of the composite, but also how it touches each others natal charts to see how the relationship affects each other individually.

Having said that, I will add some things that I like to see in a composite chart:

The aspects and placement of asteroid Alma This asteroid could indicate what type of past life or past lives you had with your person. What you went through in the past. If it touches the personal planets of the chart, Vertex, the Axis, South Node, or North Node, it could indicate that you had an important or significant past life with that person.

The aspects and placement of asteroid Amor/Agapenor/Valentine These asteroids, if it makes aspects to personal planet, could increase the chances of developing love and affection towards each other. We must still consider how the primal planets affect each other, but these asteroids could increase the chances of love.

♡ Midpoint Synastry Part One

What Is A Midpoint? A Midpoint represents the halfway point of two celestial bodies. It is the mathematical point of the center where two planets meet. Midpoints are highly sensitive as they are a combination of the energies of two separate planets. Therefore, the Midpoint Individual will be the most affected by the energy.

How Do I Calculate My Midpoint? Sadly, Astro.com does not have a Midpoint Calculator so it's best to use Astroseek.com's Midpoint Calculator instead!

What Are Midpoints Used For? Midpoints are used to reveal underlying and complex dynamics in one's own Natal Chart or the compatibility chart of two parties.

♡ Commitment and Longevity can be seen through the activation of the Sun/Saturn Midpoint in one's chart in Synastry. Sun = Vitality , Saturn = Longevity. It is the most potent when touched by someone's Sun, Juno, or ASC. This aspect is found in almost all of Hollywood's Long Lasting Marriages.

V. Beckham - Sun/Saturn Midpoint Conjunct David Beckham's Juno + ASC.

B. Lively - Sun/Saturn Midpoint Conjunct Ryan Reynold's Juno

J. Woodward - Sun/Saturn Midpoint Conjunct Paul Newman's Sun.

Tom Hanks - Sun/Saturn Midpoint Conjunct Rita Wilson's Venus.

♡ Having your Sun/Venus (feminines) or Sun/Jupiter (masculines) Midpoint in someone's first house has a very similar energy to having Venus or Jupiter in someone's first house. It can indicate attraction, an "ideal type" and therefore an ideal partner.

(In this context) In a Man or someone who is looking for a feminine partner, the Sun/Venus Midpoint represents the ideal feminine partner and the Sun/Jupiter Midpoint represents oneself. In a Woman, or someone who is looking for a masculine partner, the Sun/Jupiter Midpoint represents the ideal masculine partner and the Sun/Venus Midpoint represents oneself.

B. Lively - Sun/Venus Midpoint in Ryan Reynolds First House

R. Reynolds - Sun/Jupiter Midpoint in Blake Lively's First House

P. Newman - Sun/Venus Midpoint in Joanne Woodward's First House

E. Presley - Sun/Venus Midpoint in Priscilla Presley's First House

N. Kidman - Sun/Jupiter Midpoint in Keith Urban's First House

♡ Moon conjunct Sun/Moon Midpoint can indicate a Soulmate Relationship, especially if it is a Double Whammy.

Joanne Woodward's Sun/Moon Midpoint in the same sign as Paul Newman's Moon

Paul Newman's Sun/Moon Midpoint in the same sign as Joanne Woodward's Moon

♡ Asteroid Eros (433) conjunct someone's Moon/Mars Midpoint can indicate intense sexual attraction. Additionally, much like a Moon-Mars conjunction, it can indicate physical and emotional attachment.

♡ Saturn conjunct Moon/Mars Midpoint can indicate delays in sexual activity in a romantic partnership

♡ Venus conjunct Venus/Uranus Midpoint can indicate Love At First Sight

♡ Asteroid Amor conjunct someone's Moon/Venus Midpoint can indicate long lasting affection between two parties (platonic or romantic) no matter how their relationship plays out

♡ Mercury conjunct Mercury/Ascendant Midpoint can indicate that the Midpoint person feels as though the two parties have a natural affinity between their intellect and communication and that they feel comfortable sharing their thoughts with the Mercury person.

♡ Asteroid Agapenor (5023) conjunct Venus/Mars Midpoint can indicate True Love, whereas Asteroid Cupido (763) conjunct Venus/Mars Midpoint can indicate Limerence or Infatuation

♡ Asteroid Hera (103) conjunct a feminines Venus/Lilith or Mars/Lilith Midpoints can indicate jealousy or vengeance in a relationship

[gemsofgreece]

Hey! This is a linguistic ask, I think? I actually have another question as well, but since it has nothing to do with this topic, I'll send a separate ask. Anyway.

Could you tell me the meaning of βασιλεύοντες? When I looked it up, it appeared that this word is plural and that it would be translated more literally as "reigning ones". The pages showed me that it can be written as something like basileus. The specific phrase is "παρεγένοντο δὲ εἰς Σπάρτην ἐπὶ τὸν Ἑλένης γάμον οἱ βασιλεύοντε ς Ἑλλάδος. From what I understand, Ἑλλάδος is Hellas, i.e. Greece. So βασιλεύοντες Ἑλλάδος would be something like "those who reign over Greece". In the English translation, it's usually "Kings of Greece". However, if it's indeed basileis, from what I have researched this term is not literally "kings", since, for example, basileus/basileis was used for Byzantine emperors and for other authority figures other than kings in Ancient Greece, such as certain types of leaders. With that, my question is the following: does this word necessarily imply royalty or at least something equivalent to royalty in the society in question? Or, for example, can it be used to designate a noble? If it's exclusively royalty, it could apply to a prince (since in this context it's being applied to princes, including). Another intriguing thing is that one of the characters designated as such is actually illegitimate. In case the characters so named are needed for the interpretation, this is about Helen's suitors and in this source they are: Odysseus, Diomedes, Antilochus, Agapenor, Sthenelus, Amphimachus, Thalpius, Meges, Amphilochus, Menestheus, Schedius, Epistrophus, Polyxenus, Peneleos, Leitus, Ajax son of Oileus, Ascalaphus, Ialmenus, Elephenor, Eumelus, Polypoetes, Leonteus, Podalirius, Machaon, Philoctetes, Eurypylus, Protesilaus, Menelaus, Telamonian Ajax, Teucer, Patroclus. The source is Pseudo-Apollodorus' Library.

The other term that is present in The Iliad and is διογενὲς, which can be written as diogenes. The translation, from what I researched, would be something like "sprung from Zeus", "Zeus-descendent" and similar things. While researching if this meaning was literal or could have another possible connotation, I found the following suggestions:

The term describes characters who have Zeus in their bloodline in some way.

The term describes heroes in general in a complimentary way, regardless of their association with Zeus.

The term describes characters of royalty, as royalty comes from Zeus.

In the English translations, Caroline Alexander translated it as descended from Zeus, Zeus-descended, seed of Zeus and god-cherished (it's the same word in all cases), Martin Hammond translated it as Lord, Richmond Lattimores translated it as illustrious and Robert Fagles translated it as Prince. My doubt arose precisely because the translators seemed to have different interpretations and so did the academics (which is where I got the 3 theories suggested above from. It was from articles). Lattimore seemed to interpret it as a way of designating praise, Fagles seemed to interpret it as something that designates royalty, Hammond seemed to interpret it as something that involves status and Alexander simply went with the most literal idea, although in the case of god-cherished she may have interpreted it as designating someone divinely favored (in the sense of support). In The Iliad, this term is used in several characters, such as Achilles, Odysseus, Patroclus, Menelaus, Telamonian Ajax, Euaimon, etc. In The Odyssey, it's used with Odysseus.

I tried to research to see if perhaps some Greek scholar had given their own interpretation, but I couldn't find anything, probably because it hasn't been translated into other languages. So I'm curious if there was any Greek professional who suggested some possible meaning for this term? Is it to designate heroes? Is it a compliment? Is it literally someone who is descended from Zeus? Is the character royalty?

Many thanks in advance!

Hello! Welcome to Greek semantics haha

a) Βασιλεύοντες

Βασιλεύοντες is the plural masculine present participle of the verb "βασιλεύω" (basileúo) which means "I reign". Consequently, it means indeed "the men who reign over". Participles are extremely important in Greek and they replace common nouns very often. In this case, it could have been βασιλείς (basileís), kings, and it would not make any difference in the meaning of the text whatsoever. The choice could purely be aesthetical, personal, even instictual, without much thought put into it. Of course, the participle offers one additional information; time, those are the men who are currently reigning.

Who and what can a basileus (king) be in Greek history is pretty fluid. In general, it means the person who rules a particular state or region, no matter how small or vast. It is not always that or just that though. In Mycenaean Greek, the same word (in the form of something like quasireu) was to describe a nobleman of authority but quite probably not the king. This was the anax. The anax barely makes it to the early Archaic Homeric Greek. While various characters are basileis (most are the ones you are inquiring about) and by that time it really means kings, only Agamemnon is referred to as anax if I remember correctly, and Priam from the Trojans.

So, here's how that worked more or less. All of them were kings to their respective regions. Hellas and Argos (Central and South Greece, at the time) were always divided in smaller kingdoms where a chieftain, a warrior king ruled. These small kingdoms were technically the predecessors of the Greek city-states. Agamemnon was a basileus like everyone else. He could not really meddle at the inside matters of, say, Ithaca instead of Odysseus or Phthia instead of Achilles. However, when an issue greater than each's inside issues arose, when multiple basileis had to face a challenge together, when there was need for a common policy, then Agamemnon had the first say amongst them and he would take the final decision. He was the anax, the "king supreme" of Hellas and Argos. (Around that time both Hellas and Argos start being used interchangeably to define all of central and south Greece too and by the time of pseudo-Apollodorus Hellas was by far the most prevalent term to use.) The usage of anax soon faded after Homer. It interestingly made a comeback in Byzantine Christian context later. For example, the Virgin Mary is sometimes called "Ánassa", Queen (of Heavens). Derivative words from anax are present in modern Greek, i.e anáktoron, royal palace.

After the drop of anax, basileus was the only and general word for king. In Greek it resolutely does not matter how vast his land and how many people or ethnicities the basileus rules over as long as he is the supreme ruler in his region and answers to no one. This is why in actuality the obvious distinction between king and emperor that exists in western European languages are nowhere near as clear in Greek. In fact the Greek word for emperor αυτοκράτωρ (autokrátor) was a term coined in the Roman period to translate the Latin term imperator (commander, used for the Roman emperors). Αυτοκράτωρ means "the one who has all the power to himself". In other words, it was not a word that held a distinct meaning than that of the king. It was a coined term to emphasize on the power of the emperor, who in the eyes of the Greeks was... a king, but a strong one. This is why there are instances of the title ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ ΑΥΤΟΚΡΑΤΩΡ (basileus autokrator). It techinically means "the king of all power". After the division of the Roman Empire and the fall of the western part, Greeks just kept calling the emperor βασιλέα (accusative case), as was their way. Especially once Greek became the official language in 610 BC, this was the official title for the emperor; Βασιλεύς Ρωμαίων. Modern Greek has probably been influenced by the western perception in this and treats βασιλιάς and αυτοκράτορας (the casual modern nominative cases) as different types of royalty and power like in the west, however this wasn't the case up until the Middle Ages.

Now, you are also right that sometimes the word addressed noble people without them being strictly royalty. It could be if the person had the utmost authority for a considerable area or if they were just royal, as in kin to an actual king or connected to them. It has always been even used as a compliment for commoners as well, "kingly". This belief has very old origins, certainly already in early archaic times. Someone kind and civil in their behaviour, someone with grace, bravery and other virtues, someone beautiful was thought to descend from royal genealogy or was praised as "fit for a king", "fit for a queen", even "fit for a prince or princess". This association never went extinct, it very much exists in modern Greek folklore. Furthermore, the names Basíleios (Basil, kingly), Basileía and Basiliké (queenly, royal) are some of the most common in Greece.

b) διογενές

Here it would be useful to have the full phrase you encountered this to know how literally or figuratively the word is used. And are you sure it's διογενές and not διογενής? Because the former is neuter. Both ε and η are transliterated as e in English.

If it's literal then yes, we are talking about a descendant of Zeus or something made by Zeus.

If it's figurative, then the explanation of this word will be consistent with the last paragraph above. Here I invite you to consider whether you have also stumbled onto the word δῖος (díos) that describes Homeric heroes several times, most of all Odysseus. And perhaps you know that Διογένης was a pretty common Ancient Greek name. Okay, keep this thought in mind for later.

Zeus' name ultimately derives from the PIE Sky Father god Dyeus. Its root can be better seen in the conjugation of Zeus' name (Greek proper nouns have declensions too). In Latin characters, it goes like Zeus Dios Dii Dia Zeu. Now, this di- root that has PIE origins meant "shine, brilliance, skylight". It is why the most important god is called as such because after all he is the God of the Heavens, THE God. (Other sky deities like Ouranós, unfortunately transliterated to Uranus, were later developments as Greeks were expanding their perception of their theogony).

So, δῖος means something like "divinely luminous", "god-like", "godly", "brilliant". It kind of means all those things. This is why Lattimore translated it as "illustrious", because it has the meaning of "great, renowned" and it is also through the same reasoning and a similar etymological concept, as it derives from a word that means shine, bright in Latin. Illustrious though misses a little on the divine connotations and the connection to Zeus in comparison. BTW no I did not forget this is about διογενές (diogenés) instead but the second part of the word is very easy to explain. In short, in this context it means birthed, produced, descended. So since δῖος and Zeus have the same etymology, you can say that it either means produced / descended from Zeus (literally or figuratively) or "made of (Zeus) divine brilliance". The most important thing here is that it does not matter much. Yep. The reason it does not matter is because if it's figurative then it absolutely designates praise. Godly. Divinely brilliant. God-luminous. A proper descendant of Zeus. Not that he certainly is. But he is magnificent enough that he could be. That's the point of these words. So whether Alexander's "seed of Zeus" is poetically accurate or not depends on the context of the full phrase, which I do not have.

Coming back to the beginning, a proof that it was often meant as praise and not always as a literal conviction that the character in question necessarily came from the (admittedly massive) genealogy of Zeus is how common the name Diogenes was in the real Ancient Greek world. All these common people did not actually claim ancestry from Zeus or that they were made of his divine skylight. It was a figurative form of praise, like names usually bear positive connotations.

Now, Hammond's and Fagles' Lord and Prince are way too liberal translations (another way to say they were wrong), however their reasonings are not all that far off. It's not that the terms δῖος and διογενής-ές designate royalty or status but they were definitely praises more frequently associated to nobility and royalty. This is because Ancient Greeks thought that their legendary heroes and kings and noblemen were superior to the mere humans that they were. After all many of them seemed to actually descend from gods according to the Greek myths. They were imagined as mortal humans but with some presumed distant divine intervention in their genealogy that made them more glorious human beings. This is a recurring positive association to nobility and royalty, which in turn evolved into this association of virtuous, gifted common people with a presumed relation to nobility and royalty that I described in the first answer. So, yes, it was commonly used as praise for royalty but no, it did not in itself mean royalty.

From a figurative perspective, Lattimore's "illustrious" is the closest interpretation however it misses on the divine aspect of it, which is the most important. It is unlikely you will find various interpretations from Greek professionals because the understanding of the word is pretty unanimous in Greece. Διογενής as an adjective is not in use in Greek anymore probably due to its direct association to Zeus, however there is the just as ancient synonym θεογενής [descended from god(s)] which also produces proper names such as Θεογένης or Θεαγένης, which mean the same thing except it comes from the most generic term for the god θεός and not specifically Zeus the Sky god (which are interestingly believed to come from different PIE roots despite sounding so similar). The connotations of it being overwhelmingly figurative and designating praise are clear to us because such adjectives associated to divinity ie θεϊκός, θείος meaning divine, god-like etc are very common in Greek and are used very liberally and expressively all the time.

The reason I focused way more on the figurative explanation is because the fact that we get four so different interpretations probably means the context of the phrase wasn't that of a character that we already know that was an offspring of Zeus. And because the literal meaning is so much easier lol

Okay for you and anyone who made it this far, congrats, you made it through a massive post with Greek semantics!

“Agamemnon lord of men had himself given Agapenor the well-benched ships in which to cross the wine dark sea, as the Arcadians know nothing of seafaring.” - Homer, the Iliad

Suez: The Yellow Fleet | Al Jazeera World by Al Jazeera English This is the story of fourteen cargo ships accidentally caught up in the June 1967 Arab-Israeli war, and stuck in the Suez Canal while it remained closed for eight years. While their crews managed to maintain them, their decks became so covered in sand over time that they gradually merged with the landscape and were nicknamed "The Yellow Fleet". This film tells this unusual story through the eyes of the crews who manned the ships, on and off, for eight years. "I had an experience which I will never ever forget. I was 19 years old at the time. And it was quite a surprise to find myself right in the middle of a war, at the front seat, literally," Peter Richmond, who was on board the Agapenor in 1967, tells Al Jazeera. When the guns fell silent at the end of the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, Egypt closed the Suez Canal and while passenger ships were allowed to complete their journeys, cargo vessels were forced to remain, drop anchor and simply wait. Geopolitics and war brought together cargo vessels from the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, Sweden, France, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and the United States into an accidental, international flotilla assembled in a wide section of the Suez Canal known as the Great Bitter Lake. The crews realised that their best option would be to create a spirit of international cooperation, in stark contrast to events in the wider world. So they established a club, the Great Bitter Lake Association, whose remit was to inject some much-needed humour into a difficult situation. The crews began to devise ingenious ways to make life on board less uncomfortable and established their own unofficial, mini-country, with its own traditions, sporting competitions, and even postage stamps. They developed a barter system between ships, trading cargos, meat for fruit and prawns for eggs. They even staged their own Olympic Games. "The idea came mainly from everyone, driven by our desire to do something. We heard about the Olympics so decided we'd do the same on our ships. We had games like weightlifting, high jump, sailing and football. There were prizes and medals for the winners. I kept a silver medal I received for a sailing competition," Uwe Carstens, former sailor on the Nordwind, says. In 1975, the Suez Canal was finally reopened but inertia had caused the engines to seize up and all but two ships had to be towed out of the waterway. Both German vessels started on first try, their turbines turning the propellers and setting them on course for Hamburg. In doing so, they set a record for the longest sea shipping voyage in history: Eight years, 3 months and 5 days. - Subscribe to our channel: https://ift.tt/291RaQr - Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish - Find us on Facebook: https://ift.tt/1iHo6G4 - Check our website: https://ift.tt/2lOp4tL

Asteroid Agapenor (5023) in the signs and houses

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! Since today we celebrate love, I've decided to post an asteroid which follows the theme of unconditional love; the type of love that trascends the levels of lust and sexual interest, a love that is reached after reaching a higher level of conciousness and vibration, for this situation involves leaving behind the ego and the 3D conciousness of what love is or shouldn't be.

For those who doesn't know, Agapenor comes from the Greek word Agape, which means "love", but this love comes from someone who cares about others without conditions, without the ego. It is, in my opinion, a higher vibration of love, that's why, in the next post, I'm going to describe how each person acts when they feel unconditional love for someone. For this, I'm taking into account the house and sign of this asteroid so please enjoy it.

Advicer: as always, take it with a grain of salt, this is just an interpretation, and please don't repost or copy this text without giving proper credits to the owner.

Agapenor in Aries/1st house: once these individuals reach a state of unconditional love with someone, they won't be afraid of showing it to the world. Something in his demeaner or physical aspect will change once they fall in love, and people will notice. It will be noticeable to others when they are in love or not. Once they fall for another, these individuals won't doubt to fight for their person or defend them if someone threatens to harm him/her. At their very best, they won't doubt to get themselves hurt, or even dead, in order to protect those who he or she loves the most.

Agapenor in Taurus/2nd house: once these individuals reach a state of unconditional love with someone, they won't mind sharing their resources with another. Providing for them, taking care of them, cooking, and embracing the other could be one of the mayor signals that could reveal when this natives are this spiritual love, because in that way they can protect those who he or she loves. If someone close to them is sick or lacks money due to circumstances, these individuals won't mind sharing part of their own money to help them, even if they are struggling too, since, due to the amount of love they have, they feel hurt when someone is suffering from these matters.

Agapenor in Gemini/3rd house: these natives reach the state of unconditional love when they start acting friendly, brotherly or sisterly towards others, or at the moment they start to exchange their knowledge with others without judgement and care of other people's abilities, knowledge or intelect. These natives could reach a level of mastery when it comes about of trying to transmit, through words, the inner love they have for others or what it means to surrender to unconditional love; this ability comes from the fact that, at one point, they understand how powerful words are as a tool of manifestation and transmiting energy towards others, that's why they reach the energy of this asteroid once they star using the words for comforting and giving advice to others who needs it.

Agapenor in Cancer/4th house: these natives reach their unconditional love state when they show a motherly, nurturing, and emotional energy to others. The highest degree of love these natives have, is very similar to the love a mother has for their child, which is one of the deepest kinds of love it exist. Or, at least, is the better example that we can see on an everyday basis. They will be emphatic with other people's problems, especially when it comes to their own family, they will feel sad if someone is hurt or sad, and they will try everything in their hand to heal those who she or he loves the most.

Agapenor in Leo/5th house: these natives, once they reach the highest vibration of unconditional love, don't mind anymore about what other people think about the people they care about. In fact, they feel proud about the people he or she cares about and want them to feel proud of them as well. The only thing these natives wants for the people they love is for them to be happy, have fun, to make them known about how important they are to them, how much they love them, and how proud they should be about themselves. Because they are unique and these natives know it better than anyone else.

Agapenor in Virgo/6th house: these natives reach the state of unconditional love once they start worring about others wellbeing and search to find a way to help those who need it throught different methods such as work (they could be a healer, social worker, nutrisionist, doctor, veterinarian, etc.) or providing others with methods or advice each time they notice the people they love have struggles. These people are the type that, if you get sick or sad, they will remain by your side through thick and thin. They will never left your side unless you ask for it or they see that you are fully recovered. That's how they show they love you.

Agapenor in Libra/7th house: when they reach that level of unconditional love, these natives will stop at nothing to make you happy and make yourself a priority in their life. If they are usually loners, workaholic or watever, they may put that aside in order to make priority to the relationship. Keeping things at peace, trying to balance the relationship between give and take, and supporting others are some of the things these people display once they reach this level of love. You won't have to worry about such as thing as loyalty or trust because they will be focused on you and will trust you with everything they have.

Agapenor in Scorpio/8th house: these natives reach a deep level of love once they align themselves with the higher vibrations. The experience of this kind of love could even change them in ways they couldn't even imagine. They could even change their whole demeanur when they experience that kind of love. Almost like the Beauty and the Beast. Once they fall in love, they won't let go. They'll try to protect you, please you in everything (especially sexually), and their loyalty will be astonishing. Even in a romantic relationship, if they broke up, then they will never forget every single detail of the experience. It will lay deep within their heart.

Agapenor in Sagittarius/9th house: these natives will want to explore the world with the person they fall deeply in love with. Once reached that level of unconditional love, they'll never tire of being with the one they care about. He or she will feel more optimistic, it will make him grow as a person due to the experiences within the relationship, and he or she will like to provide the same to the other person. Places to go on adventure, ambients to make each other laugh, situations in which both will experience many different things, share histories with one another, and opportunities to grow together. Once they reach the highest vibration of love, they will never cease to grow.

Agapenor in Capricorn/10th house: the journey of these natives to reach a higher level of love is, certainly, not an easy one due to the Saturn influence that involves hard lessons with better rewards for the future. These natives, along with those who have this asteroid in aspect to Saturn, will face different lessons related to the highest level of love that could depend on the aspects, if they are hard or soft, and the placement of Saturn in the chart so they could learn how it is to reach this level of energetic conciousness. On the lighter hand, these natives, once they learn, can bring a solid foundation to those who he or she cares about. And it will stay there, with you, for the rest of their days. Through good and bad.

Agapenor in Aquarius/11th house: these natives can reach a full capacity of loving all the living beings on earth, humans or not, if they reach this higher level of love since they understand, if they reach this level, that we all are beings of light that came here to learn and evolve. To make mistakes, to try again, and complete our karmic lessons while following our own free will as well. They can bring compassion, understanding, support, and friendlyness to those he or she loves. The love and affection displayed by these people could be a source of inspiration to others and could increase the energetic level of the world.

Agapenor in Pisces/12th house: these are the people who loves at the most higher level of all once they learn to love unconditionaly. Have you ever wondered why in many teenage movies there is an innocent young girl who falls in love with a narcissistic man/bad man who is either an abusive brat or a drinker and, despite his treatment she keeps going back to support him? Well, this aspect can explain that since this individual, when they learn how to love unconditionally, look past all the barriers of reality and dive deep into the very soul of the other person. When someone steals their heart, they manage to look within this person and recognise, not only who the person is at a soul level, but what they could become in the future. They are a very forgiving person and will support you to heal your soul and move forward. If they could sacrifice their own soul for you, they could do it.

[release-info]

the later phase of the late Bronze Age (LCIIIA, 1200–1100 BC) great amounts of ‘Mycenaean’ IIIC:1b pottery were produced locally. New architectural features include cyclopean walls, found on the Greek mainland, as well and a certain type of rectangular stepped capitals, endemic on Cyprus. Chamber tombs are given up in favour of shaft graves. Large amounts of IIIC:1b pottery are found in Palestine during this period as well. While this was formerly interpreted as evidence of an invasion (‘Sea Peoples’), this is seen more and more as an indigenous development, triggered by increasing trade relations with Cyprus and Crete. Evidence of early trade with Crete is found in archaeological recovery on Cyprus of pottery from Cydonia, a powerful urban center of ancient Crete.[9] Cypriot city kingdoms Edit Most authors claim that the Cypriot city kingdoms, first described in written sources in the 8th century BC were already founded in the 11th century BC. Other scholars see a slow process of increasing social complexity between the 12th and the 8th centuries, based on a network of chiefdoms. In the 8th century (geometric period) the number of settlements increases sharply and monumental tombs, like the ‘Royal’ tombs of Salamis appear for the first time. This could be a better indication for the appearance of the Cypriot kingdoms.The early Iron Age on Cyprus follows the Submycenaean period (1125–1050 BC) of the Late Bronze Age. It is divided into the Geometric (1050–700), and Archaic (700–525) periods. Foundations myths documented by classical authors connect the foundation of numerous Cypriot towns with immigrant Greek heroes in the wake of the Trojan war. For example, Teucer, brother of Aias was supposed to have founded Salamis, and the Arcadian Agapenor of Tegea to have replaced the native ruler Kinyras and to have founded Paphos. Some scholars see this a memory of a Greek colonisation already in the 11th century. In the 11th century tomb 49 from Palaepaphos-Skales three bronze obeloi with inscriptions in Cypriot syllabic script have been found, one of which bears the name of Opheltas. This is first indication of the use of Greek language on the island. Cremation as a burial rite is seen as a Greek introduction as well. The first cremation burial in Bronze vessels has been found at Kourion-Kaloriziki, tomb 40, dated to the first half of the 11th century (LCIIIB). The shaft grave contained two bronze rod tripod stands, the remains of a shield and a golden sceptre as well. Formerly seen as the Royal grave of first Argive founders of Kourion, it is now interpreted as the tomb of a native Cypriote or a Phoenician prince. The cloisonné enamelling of the sceptre head with the two falcons surmounting it has no parallels in the Aegean, but shows a strong Egyptian influence. Phoenicians Edit In the 8th century, several Phoenician colonies were founded, like Kart-Hadasht[citation needed] (‘New Town’), present day Larnaca and Salamis. The oldest cemetery of Salamis has indeed produced children’s burials in Canaanite jars, clear indication of Phoenician presence already in the LCIIIB 11th century. Similar jar burials have been found in cemeteries in Kourion-Kaloriziki and Palaepaphos-Skales near Kouklia. In Skales, many Levantine imports and Cypriote imitations of Levantine forms have been found and point to a Phoenician expansion even before the end of the 11th century.#NCIGo #NetcurrencyIndex #Airdrop #Crypto #Blockchain #Cryptocurrency #Bounty #TheCryptoBenchmark http://bit.ly/2XneeNS

Hey, what placements do you think indicate deep, sincere love? Not sexual necessarily..🫠🥹🥹🥹 Thanks😘😘😘

Hello!! For me, the placements that could indicate deep, sincere love in synastry are:

The mutual aspects to the Moon, especially with the conjunction, trine and sextile: when these placements to the Moon appear in synastry, it indicates a connection of emotions that could make the individuals feel valued, understood in a deep level, cherished, and loved; a sensation that goes beyond any mental or sexual compatibility. Now, even though having different planets in aspect to the Moon is good, these, in my opinion, are the most important aspects that could indicate deep love: 1.1 Moon conjunct, trine or sextile Venus: there is a mutual caring energy between the two, a natural loving energy in which both could feel understood and valued by the other. The Moon will want to provide a safe emotional environment to the Venus person, it will understand their emotions, while Venus will bring acceptance and value to the Moon's emotions. They will care for one another well being, which is part of what real love is. 1.2 Moon conjunct, trine or sextile Ceres: just like the last group, there is mutual caring and a need to pamper or comfort one another emotionally. The effect is similar to the last group. The Ceres person will like to take care of the Moon person, especially when they are in low energy, and the Moon person will understand and support the feelings of the Ceres person.

2. Love asteroids (Amor, Agapenor, Liebe (german for "love")) in conjunction, trine or sextile inner planets or between themselves: these asteroids in aspect to one another or to any personal planets (especially Moon and Venus) indicates an attraction that goes way beyond the physical and sexual plane. Indicates a connection that is sorrounded by true love and affection.

*Outter planets in combination to any of these points: I put this option with a * , because the combustion of the energy of these outter planets with these asteroids or inner planets are difficult to control, so it can easily get out of hand if not carefully managed. Personally, I prefer Neptune and Pluto rather than Uranus, and that's because Uranus, even though it brings frienship and attraction at first, it's too umpredictable to indicate a love that last for a long time. On the contrary, Neptune and Pluto, even though they both have teir own personal conflcting energies, can bring a soulmate kind of love or vibe. An energy of having met this person before (Neptune) or being able to connect in deepest type of love that you never knew it existed (Pluto). Of course, like I've said, these energies are difficult to control and, once you separate from the other, the devastation can be unbereable in many times so be careful with this. USE TIGHT ORBS WHEN LOOKING ASPECTS TO ASTEROIDS (MORE THAN 2 DEGREES IS TOO MUCH).

I hope this small list helped you. Send you lots of love and light.

Hi,

I loved your post on asteroid Agapenor (5023). I got curious and checked where it was in my chart.

Agapenor is at 24 degrees exactly conjunction my Neptune at 24 degrees in Capricorn 3rd house.

Im a Scorpio rising so my 5th house is Pisces.

Do you have any insight on this conjunction?

Hi!

Having Agapenor in aspect to Neptune (ruler of Pisces) in Capricorn in the 24° degree (Pisces) tells me a very curious mix between the spiritual, unconditional love of Pisces with the seriousness and responsable energy of Capricorn (ruled by Saturn). This aspects lies in the house of communication, which is another curious factor for me. If Capricorn rules your third house, then your voice is a very wise one and the things you say may seem as if you had more experience in life that many despite the age. With Neptune in there in close conjunction to Agapenor, not only your voice denotes a natural wisdom but a natural knowledge that may come from your intuition along with the ability to show unconditional love through your words. You are very grounded and realistic in your thoughts, you know well how human nature works but, despite this, when people come to you for advice or you notice someone with a problem, the advices you gave carries the perfect balance of unconditional love and practicality. You could have an ability to show some truths to other people in a way that also shows concern and love so they could take those messages in the best way possible. Maybe you have some healing abilities by the way you speak. Having the natural ruler of Neptune, Pisces, in the 5th house could make you very intuitive when it comes to know the problems behind the attitude of some children or how the inner child works and how it needs to be healed. Your voice, since it carries the energy of love, can be a healing tool for children.

That's what I can see in relation to these aspects. I hope it resonated.
