With this SLR and Demi expiring tomorrow, it's time to review the PVP aspects.

But first, a quick review of the rest of the chart. I survived the awful-looking Mars-Pluto-Pluto-Venus aspects, and I was not directly injured in any way. The fires did take up the majority of my mental and emotional ...

So far, the SoCal fires have dominated my attention. I am safe at the moment, but have basically been isolating except to go out and get supplies, under which circumstances I am masked. It reminds me of the beginning of the Covid period in some ways. Natal Pluto as the most angular planet is a great ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I'm okay so far, thank you.

Yeah, it just occurred to me yesterday evening that this lunar return could absolutely refer to that. I tend to register California natural disasters later than California natives do, so this wasn't on my radar until then.

I sure hope not, but the chart is pretty ...

I have some fixes pending that I’ll hopefully be able to post in the next few days. Along with that, if you’re not opposed, Jim, I’d like to enable extra optional planets (TNOs and asteroids) via their own sub-page off of the chart options menu. I feel moved to pay attention to some of them ...

When you say "recent version" link, do you mean 0.5.x or the 0.6.x series?

That error message makes me think it's 0.5.x; try installing the 0.6.0 beta from the very first post in this thread: viewtopic.php?t=8953

Happy New Year!

I am unfortunately still sick, but here's some more bugfixes.

https://mega.nz/file/MPdyxDiL#FWH3Cb3wQynimq02EZ8OHjNusM9dYQerD62I1KwLiPY

Fixed:

Moon aspects now shown in dormant ingresses
Semi-sextiles are now included when inconjuncts are enabled
Charts set for 12:00pm now ...

Mars-Pluto related illnesses, besides elements associated with anger, are especially centered on "stress and strain" matters, whether repetitive injury or accumulated stress taking itself out on the body. (In this case it was Mars-Pluto to Pluto, so two different Mars-Pluto aspects.) While we ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Is there a Pluto-Mars and Pluto-Venus indication in the SSR for this person?
I wonder if this lunar return is more about how the person is feeling. R. Pluto is her own need to separate and transform while t. Mars-t. Pluto can be about an argument and aggression as well as inner anger and the t.Ven ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I wasn’t planning to do this, but let’s take a quick look through the minor charts just to see how close they can get to the SLR in terms of relevance here.

Spoiler alert: they basically match my past findings on these minor solunars.

Planetary Periods

Pet insurance doesn’t work like human insurance, in that there’s no enrollment period and you don’t typically get it through your employer. You can just sign up directly via some insurance company. You can sign up whenever you want, and you can typically cancel it whenever you want. Payment is ...

I'm sorry to hear that Kali is ill and needs vet care. I hope she gets well soon! (I am also sick, but I do not need vet - or human doctor - care.)

Have you looked into pet insurance at all? It can be relatively cheap, like $20-$50 a month, depending on what kind of coverage you want, and it would ...

I was still in the car when my Solar Return set up; judging by a GPS app, my coordinates were close to the following:
42N57'0"

Which gives me these angularities and this variant on the chart (going by TM):

Thank you! I leave tomorrow.

No particular plans, I might hit up a bar or two while I'm there

It's supposed to snow Thursday and Friday.

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I think you mean your new lunar in a few days, since Moon is in Cancer today.

Yes, that is what I mean, thank you.

That Moon-Saturn-Eris combination is interesting. I'm not sure I have any more sense of what to make of it than you do, though the "throwback" sense is very interesting (and, as ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Regarding Eris...

I'm having a lot of miscellaneous back-and-forth things involving friends, not directly, but through others; e.g. "this other person sucks and you're on my side, right?" And I usually am on their side in the moment. It's taking effort not to emotionally paint myself into a corner ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I'll wander back through this thread to see if there are other issues still hovering.

I see your recent posts on the Novien and angles in data table threads, and will go through the rest here.

The one remaining bug that matters most to me at the moment is the absence of Moon aspects in ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I think I'll wait until 1. the Demi-SLR activates, and 2. this whole period is over before making a judgment on this, but I'm not immediately impressed.

I'm nearing the end of this lunar cycle, and I think I've come to the conclusion that this Mercury-Jupiter PVP aspect is descriptive of the ...

Mike, I can't download this new package. The browser says a virus is detected in the package.

Though there have always been fights between TMSA and security software, this particular thing only happened once before when MikeN actually did have a virus in the package. Perhaps something is at least ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Creating it manually should solve the issue, I bet. I wonder why it didn't fail during startup if there was a permission issue...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

There are several variations of progressions, but they boil down to “taking some base chart, and advancing the points in it at some rate.” For example, the most common type, secondary progressions, works like this: for every year of your actual life, your progressed chart advances by one day. If you ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Here, try 0.6.0b1. The button issue should be resolved now.

https://mega.nz/file/gbdTwZab#ea5NwxYOhxsVS5oH5xQpMO_6pdvcWS9-hbSMhFu-z3c

As for the error when trying to open the error file - TM attempts to create that file if it doesn't exist each time you start it, so I'm not sure why it also can't ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Those are both really funky. Let me try to reproduce them. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

One of the most interesting things is that... here is another Leo Moon with lifelong massive back-spine issues.

!!

My Leo Moon mother's back and neck issues have been the defining factor of her life - I can easily say the defining factor of her entire identity - for the last 4 decades. I ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Finally, at long last, I present to you: an update!

Here's the link to 0.6.0b0, or, "I arbitrarily decided that this is at a beta level of stability because there are few bugs remaining, and several of us have been routinely using the alpha for months now."

I would agree that this was a resounding, overwhelming defeat. The margin was small, yes - but Trump won the popular vote, a feat widely regarded as impossible for a republican in the modern era. He won all of the swing states (granted, many of them trend together, but still, she didn’t pick up a ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I am definitely energetically drained and relatively unmotivated, and there have been some brief low points, but overall it's nothing serious.

It's a bit hard at the moment, but I wouldn't call it "pretty hard." Which I'm grateful for

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

So far, the main things going on during this period have been
1. starting to publicly identify as non-binary, and starting to use a different name (I'll update that here at some point soon)
2. matched with someone online that I'm really into for a change, and it's going very well so far
3. been ...

Gukesh Dommaraju was born May 29 2006 in Chennai, India, at an unknown time. He is currently challenging world champion Ding Liren for the title, and has been on an absolute tear up until this point, easily beating everyone who competed with him for the right to face Ding.

Ding Liren, born Oct 24 1992 in Wenzhou, China at an unknown time, is the current World Chess Champion. (Magnus Carlsen declined to defend his title the last time around, citing boredom and burnout with the format after holding the title for 10 years.)

That is possible. Still, though, out of all of the things that I detest Trump and his administration for, they don't seem to have any desire to get involved militarily in pretty much anything (except sending no-strings-attached aid to Israel). The strongest supporters of the incoming administration ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

By the way, thank you (all, but especially Jim) for being patient with this last suite of bugs. I have been very busy in my personal life, and also super burnt out on dev work, so all of my focus has been going towards keeping the lights on at work so to speak. I always recover from running out of ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

So now that I’m at the airport and this trip is nearly over, I can say the relocated Demi-SLR was an accurate chart, but the importance was much lower than I would’ve thought. It did NOT primarily describe the experience, which was celebratory and full of new and renewed friendships.

I think it ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Yeah, we just found out there’s a burn ban out here, so that tracks. Thanks for the heads up.

So far, it’s been an arduous day (just a lot of travel and prep for so many people), but nothing resembling “hellish.”

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I have another interesting case coming up.

My new Demi-SLR for Southern California is very straightforward - just t. Jupiter, r. Mars, t. Mercury, and a hint of t. Uranus, with no foreground aspects.

However, I'm traveling to Pocono Summit, PA tomorrow and flying back on Sunday. I'm going to be ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Because of the anger forms, I'm inclined to take the Mars aspects more seriously, too.

This always stands out to me when natal Mars is heavily involved in SLRs. It is a very reliable manifestation for me. It not being foreground but involved in foreground aspects also seems to be activating it ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

I tend to have a hard time discerning new natal aspects in return charts. With that said, I definitely have had a lot of anger these past 2 weeks - so the fact that natal Mars is acutely background but involved in PVP aspects makes me think that these PVP aspects are valid here. (Transiting Mars is ...

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

Well, that relief didn't last very long!

The Mercury-Saturn and double Neptune were quite evident - I couldn't get myself to focus on anything productive basically all month, and depression, psychological tension, pessimism, and powerful emotional reactions have all been evident.

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

What I take from all of this is that, primarily, SLRs must be so overwhelmingly powerful that they can bury what seems like an insurmountable pile of contradictory factors... at least while they're active.

Ember Nyx (Mike V)

For someone without an established long term presence in DC, she almost took it. We probably getting closer to having a female president.
