Observe these Natural Laws

One Fixed Power

Moon exalted in Taurus

Moon represents our feeling nature; the way we receive life. It is the creative, imaginative aspect of our mind that we can use to listen to and nourish our own heart's stirrings and inspiration. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Moon is with keeping clear emotional boundaries, deep inner stoicism, pure love and compassion, and create and express nourishment in tangible ways (as symbolised by the Taurus bhava in our chart).

Two Mutable Powers

Mercury exalted in Virgo

Mercury represents our intellect, and gathering and sharing of details and facts. It is the logical, neutral aspect of our mind that we can use to directly notice life around us, learn, and communicate with others. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Mercury is in balanced exchange with others, to keep our intellect clear and be discerning as we notice details and gather facts, remaining neutral while we take initiative (as symbolised by the Virgo bhava in our chart).

Venus exalted in Pisces

Venus represents our genetic life-force, physical desire, capacity for aesthetics, and sensory care. It is our taste and capacity for earthly life in all ways. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Venus is with elevating our desire to do what keeps us well, and give sensory care in balanced exchange with others with respect, diplomacy, quality, and equanimity (as symbolised by the Pisces bhava in our chart).

Four Cardinal Powers

Sun exalted in Aries

Sun represents our core vitality and natural intelligence; our spirit of inspiration that causes our heart to beat constantly and gives us power to use and express throughout our life-time.

We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Sun is with steadfast integrity and generosity, individual willpower and courage (as symbolised by the Aries bhava in our chart).

Jupiter exalted in Cancer

Jupiter represents the way wisdom comes to us through broader awareness and motivation to expand. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Jupiter is with pure love in our heart, compassion, and grace for inclusion (as symbolised by the Cancer bhava in our chart).

Saturn exalted in Libra

Saturn represents our sense of reality, boundary, and limitation and the effort we will make with perseverance. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Saturn is with personal effort and long-term commitment for balance, fairness, and cooperation in our relationships with others (as symbolised by the Libra bhava in our chart).

Mars exalted in Capricorn

Mars represents our willpower and courage to defend and protect what is important to us. This begins with self-defence to protect our own life-force and embodied nature, then defend and protect those who cannot protect themselves such as children, the elderly, the infirm or weak. We can remember that the most beneficial way to use our Mars is for protection, self-discipline with personal skill-building, and our focused action to create legacy or long-term outcomes (as symbolised by the Capricorn bhava in our chart).
