Family Dynamics and Ruling Planets
May 11, 2008
“The hand that rocks the cradle usually is attached to someone who isn’t getting enough sleep.”- John Fiebig
“I’d like to be the ideal mother, but I’m too busy raising my kids.”- Unknown
The mother of three notoriously unruly youngsters was asked whether or not she’d have children if she had it to do over again. “Yes,” she replied. “But not the same ones.”- David Finkelstein
Certainly mother’s are only human, something we tend to forget until we have children of our own. Then our our similarities (heavens forbid) to our own mothers becomes apparent. Below an astrologer counsels three generations in one session and similarities between the generations are discussed.
The Ruling Planet is usually the designated planetary ruler of the Ascendant, but can be another strong planet (such as the Sun-ruler, Moon-ruler, most elevated etc) if the ascendant-ruler is weak by sign or aspect.
Donna Cunningham writes about ruling planets here.
