Sooo, how would you read it??

So I'm doing a chart for a friend... Sun/Asc Scorpio, Mercury, Mars, and Uranus in Scorpio too. Pluto is in the 11th house singleton (only Air planet). I'm tempted to consider it unaspected since the only aspects that it makes are generational aspects (sextiles to Neptune and Saturn) but I'm not sure that's the correct way to go.

So, how would you read it? Ignore the generational aspects or give them extra signifignece since they are the only aspects?

Well, what aspects are you using? Do you use just Ptolemy's or are you branching out to the quincunx too? (I don't use semisextile on out when deciding singleton status, but will give quincunxes weight.)

I'd ignore the generational aspects myself, becuase as you said, everyone has 'em. But it IS going to rule all the stuff in Scoprio, so it's not totally without power. This'll make all kinds of control issues become really important. And that it's the only Air planet, yeech. This could be interesting.

just the major aspects. There is a semisextile to AC, quinqunx to BML, and a sesquisquare to Jupiter. Actually, with the BML it apexes a yod between Pluto and Neptune... and BML is conjunct to DC... so I probably should give a bit more consideration to that.

The only minor aspect I really use is the quincunx... very now and then the quintile, but not often. So I'd definitely count the quincunx.

But even if they are "generational" aspects, one of the wonders of astrology is that not everyone born with that aspect is going to have it in the same place! :) I'd take a look at what houses it's affecting, as well as the aspects some of the personal planets make to the other aspected planets. Sometimes you just have to /squeeze/ the meaning out of something but it's still there, just hiding. :lol:
