Everyone has a Lord or a Lady of their chart. It is the ruler of your Ascendent. As this is fairly ancient ye olde worlde astro, a lot of peeps think you should consider the ‘old’ rulers to be in effect. eg; If you have Pisces Rising, you would say you are ‘ruled’ by Jupiter, not Neptune. But I don’t bother with this because I have Aquarius Rising and I’d rather be Uranian than Saturnine.
So, the idea is not that you owe allegiance to some feudal overlord or capricious dame such as the Moon BUT that you keep a v.close eye on the Lord/Lady as it is v.likely to be super-significant. You might also like to think in terms of developing/enhancing some of the qualities associated with that planet. eg; Say you have Aries Rising – Mars is your Lord…You would do well to be actively competitive & move hard on winning in the areas of the chart where Mars is transitting.
The chart ruler is v.important in Horary astrology, where you ask a question and run a chart for the moment of the question.

Lessons lessons & more lessons says my rising’s ruler Saturn.
It’s influence is why i’m obsessed with time.-
me too pegasus. (Cappy rising)
… time, lessons and an eternity of waiting. I am getting better with age though
-
Scorpy yeah you are like fine wine dear heart : > and Pegs may your wings soar as you reach new heights : >
-
Do find that Saturn places restrictions of my Jupiterian expansiveness.
Am attempting to age gracefully, not kicking & screaming at the unfairness
anymore, more a Zen acceptance as in a mile can be a long long way or 1000 miles,
depending on where you are & feeling at the time.BUT am delighted that my shape is the same size & outline (just a lot softer) as when i was 22 years, if only that phrase of ‘16 from behind & 60 from the front’ plays thro’ my mind occasionally to give me a laugh.
Strange, isn’t it to feel sexually attracted to your EX & quite dangerous if acted on, so i won’t if you don’t, not even maybe perhaps even in 10 years. Hah!
-
me too Pegs – same figure but a little softer. A few years ago i went to a family function and a distant family friend said “OMG, you haven’t changed in 20 years! – do you ever age!?”
Salacious Sagg, please don’t go back to the Scorp ex! After your phoenixing you’ll be a different person – a changed and stronger woman and i’m sure some wonderful guy will come along and see that strength and beauty.
I never, EVER go back – not for work or relationships. Always onwards and upwards. Thank my lucky stars for my Sagg moon!

that’s interesting Mystic…
hmm ok so my ruler is Mercury (thanks to Mystics chart session)…I don’t know if I need to work on my mercury-ness any more that I already do!!! -
I’ve always liked to think I’m a tad more Mercurial than Saturnine… not unlike that rather fine looking fellow in the cartoon above actually… love a good ballet shoe too.
-
BTW guys my Scorp Tormentor looks exactly like this dude, except his hair is shorter and thicker and blondier to his ear lobes sorta thing, tanned , muscley etc etc. Yes, yes, I can hear ye all, get over it!
-
Also in that dream my daughter saw, she told me she saw me soaking a human brain, a heart and a slab of meat, like it was nothing out of the ordinary! I smiled happily as I wiped my mouth and assured her that I only kill people I dont like! I have never imagined myself as a cannibal!! The fact that my daughter had the dream makes me wonder if it is she who would like to see him dead!! Sigh! All those muscles!
Anyway, thanks Mystic for the awesome art work you always find. So beautiful xxx
-
Thank you Hun! And yes, obviously this gentleman you dallied with is mega-hot or else how the hell would you have lingered??? I know it’s hard & even just dating The Uranian earlier this year was enough of a roller coaster for me. These men seriously mess with you and I am sure that on some level that dream is GOOD – your daughter sees you as a powerful entity…Am sure there is something in Woman Who Run With The Wolves about this sort of dream…And GOOD ON YOU! And btw, if Scorp joins something like Drugs Anon or whatever and cleans up his act, then maybe he’ll be allowed BACK into your bed. But don’t think o f that for now. Be happy at what a beautiful and resourceful role model you are for your girl.
-
Thank you Mystic , you are truly such a beautiful lady that I cannot understand why these men are such idiots around you? I saw you on that link that UP sent I think and you look so fab, so golden and gorgeous. In fact I think that interviewer guy was quite gob smacked by you, even though he acted all raised eye brow initially! heh! heh!
Re the Scorp and my bed, I have decided that I am not going to eva be rushed into marriage ever, ever again…. It would take 10 years ++ for me to trust the Scorp Tormentor again.
I must check out the dream though, it sure sounds fab. Its so nice if my daughter sees me as a powerful entity, as she always tells me I am too trusting of people! She is only 14 and makes me feel so duh at times, as she is so sensible and conservative!!
-
sensible and conservative… is your daughter an earth sign?
-
-
-
-
-
My rising is the same as my sun. I wonder if that means anything?
-
Lesley, wouldn’t it means you are double of your Sun Sign, each amplifies the others traits.
So whatever you are you are MORE of:-)
-
-
So.. Ive got a pisces rising – so that makes me A Jupiter/Neptune!
COOL! well does that mean im double ruled by jupiter – as my sun ruler is saggo …?? -
So… as a Scorpio rising, I could pay special attention to either Pluto or Mars in my chart – my choice?
-
I too have a scorp rising… I have no idea how to answer your question tho… anyone???
-
Yes, Pluto and mars
-
AS Venus is your Ruling planet, Odette, i think that you would follow what Pluto & Mars’
paths are around your Venus, the aspects, where they form patterns & designs that only
professional Astrologers can interpret, hence we are here with Myst:-)SweatPea & UberVirgo could explain more to you if you ask perhaps or just stay tuned &
collect info as you understand it….x-
Thanks!

-
Hmm, my lord is the sun. Does that mean I should be scorping-it-up right now?
-
U should have a golden image – hot!
-
mine too. not sure i get what you mean by a golden image though?
does that also mean that the part of your chart where your ruler is should also be amped – in this case my sun sign?-
It means we’re hot and golden like the sun?
I’m still pondering on that one…
-
read something nice – the ‘personality casts no shadows’
-
-
-
-
Aquarius-Uranian here, but with a Cappy Moon, I feel more Saturnine a lot of the time
-
With my Kataka-rising, tis no wonder I’m so moooooody. Tracking La Luna is very, very good for my sanity.
-
I have cancer ascendant too – what would it mean with regard to this? I have noticed though that when the moon is in cancer I feel totally drained of energy and unable to apply myself to work etc.
-
-
And keep a v.close eye on the Voids!
-
Pisces rising & that is Jupiter or Neptune?
-
Neptune. Jupiter is Saggo’s ruler
-
Thanks Scorpalicious
-
Scorpy darlink never fear this Sagg though tres batty at times will not take the Scorp back. Never ever again, I have truly learn’t my lesson as he was the only guy I ever took back. I wonder if it is my Gem moon that makes me so daft to have ever thought it would work? Ah well, onwards and upwards to bigger and better things.
I have actually decided to make a time line and write down alll , yes ALL the people, even energy vampires that have touched my life. Whether good or bad and then to write down next to it something positive I have learn’t and grown, as a result. I think it is a good exercise, for all is not in vain.
I am a Sagg, however as I am Scorp Rising Mars is my Ruler! : o Sooooo Scary thought indeed! : o
-
Mars doesn’t have to be scary. If you can harness the powerful energy, it’s awesome for when you need to kick butt!!
I like your time line idea.
-
Ohh yes, I do and can kick butt, take on govt agencies etc. Its with the bloody men in my life I have trouble kicking but!
I read elsewhere that you are into Sci Fi too, it must be the Sagg in you, as I am a Sci Fi fiens and have bookshelves just for that. Hope you are going to do something fab on the morrow? I shall wish you on ze morrow but start praying now for blessigs to flow your way for a brilliant year ahaed : >

Who rules Leo? Is it Mars?
-
The sun actually so by extenction Apollo – the Greek/Roman god of the arts, music and medicine!
Very Athlethic also
twin brother to artemis – soz blabbing on about gods/goddess’ – they make me excited! -
THE SUN……….!
-
-
i’d love some astro nerd opinions on some googling tidbit I’ve discovered. that if you have planets conjunct your ascendent it/they take over chart rulership?
I’ve mars (1st) and saturn (12th) conjunct my leo ascendent, sextile my chart ruler gem sun.
???-
I have Saturn in the 12th conjunct my Leo ascendant also. Mystic says this softens the ego maniac Leo-ness and possibly reflects self-esteem issues.
-
To be honest happy if it does, bloody leos shit me sometimes. However, does it mean that we don’t actually get to have the sun as chart ruler? That instead it is saturn, or mars, or whichever is pushier of the two?
ahhh men/gods; at least apollo likes music and poetry…Hope the family situation is going all right for you SPMALR
p.s. I always get some funny beginnings of a monty python sketch featuring pamela anderson in my head when I see you pseudonym

So is the Moon a lord or a lady? (Cancer rising)
-
La Luna is a Lady…
Aries Rising with Mercury/Saturn/PLuto Opposition…
Scorpio Mars – Hello Lord of the Underworld…But how about strong/tight aspects? are the minor rulers?
-
Thank you, NV. I’m an Aries Sun so I hear you about Mars!!! I suppose I’m lucky to have Cancer rising – just takes the edge off, like red cordial with your cask wine!
-
oh please, take someone these edges off…
I hear you …Being a Mars/Martial person does not make life very peaceful, does it?
on the other hand – someone has to be the initiator… or accelerator lol.
-
-
Wow. It’s pretty exciting (appropriate) to realize that my ruler/leader is Venus (as have Libra rising) in these early days of Saturn in Libra. Will embrace it!
-
So is it safe to say that Pisces’s Risings should be in the news right now due to Neptune going direct?
I am obsessing over and diving into a new creative project and lose track of time blah blah neptune.
Am loving it!!
No more liquor than usual, (and no less
)-
“No more liquor than usual, (and no less”….
Ha,ha. Same here but going on an eating plan this weekend. Wine will only be very occassionally.
One site saying Cardinal signs taking some precedence in the news.
Nut over here had hidden 10 or more women that he raped and murdered in his home and buried in the backyard.
12th house stuff? Neptunian bringing what was hidden into the light?
And good gawd that needs lots of light
Swear world going bonkers as I look on “bewildered”….(sorta. Aries are rarely bewildered except for maybe a second…
-
-
Sweetpea, it’s all over the news here too.
What an evil looking creature he is. Wierder is him living with the decomposition
odor.
Police a bit slack over that discovery. -
scorpalicious , you did not have a reply thingy at the bottom of your post to reply. You asked re my sensible daughter’s sing. She is an Aries – a scary one! : >
-
hehe… oh no!
My best mate is an Aries. She can be scary at times but she’s also very lovable. It took me a while to get a handle on all that intense Mars energy though.-
Absolutely. They are fircely loyal but see themselves as the style police. I get my hair cut at the barbers and delight in shocking everyone about my hair costing only$10!! My sweet Aries child rolls her eyes and sighs
: > heh Heh
