Defining the first meeting chart

As a rule, relationships only start when the two people meet in the real world, therefore a chart be
erected for the respective time, date and location. However, a very frequent situation in the modern
world with so many methods of communication people may get in contact with each other by means of
chat, instant messaging, email, phone, letters, SMS and may continue to write or talk to each other
this way for a long time. There is no way to have a single relationship chart for reference until the two
people actually meet in person. And it is this chart that is most effective in analyzing the development
and outcome of the relationship.
Let us go through a couple of astrological tips and tricks for first meeting charts: whether electional or
event astrology charts, they are delineated just the same. Just remember that in astrology the practical
experience is invaluable and you'll get much insight and understanding by studying first meeting charts
of people you know, having already sound theoretical knowledge of the basic principles of horary and
electional astrology.
Some things to keep in mind while delineating or electing a such chart:
Moon aspects: Positive Moon aspects play a very important role in first meeting chart because, as
they say, the first impression counts. In practice, it actually counts a lot, because usually if the first
impression is bad, things don't get further... so that people might find out further than looks and
behaviour.
The Moon aspects that are very good for relationships are the positive aspects to the Sun and Venus.
Other aspects can improve certain secondary relational areas such as the Moon - Mars or Pluto
positive aspects with important influence on the sexual level.
However, Moon's aspects are not a reliable indicator of the evolution of the relationship in the long run.
It just tells about how it starts. But you would certainly want it to kick off immediately.
Dignified planets are planets in their own essential dignities, of which a particular importance are the
domicile and the exaltation. You may have all trines and sextiles in the chart, but if there're no dignified
planets, but only planets in detriment (exile, fall) things will not go as planned, for lack of motivation,
energy, desire... and the relationship will brilliantly fail.
Planets' strenght is so important. Any planet in detriment can be malign. As we're talking about
relationships now, Venus is of a particular interest.
Venus is the love planet and we would want it to see Venus dignified in a happy relationship chart, but
fact is that first meetings happen also while Venus is other signs than Taurus, Libra or Pisces and
people are happy.
Just remember that Venus' position by sign and its aspects represent an indicator of the harmony and
love in the relationship.
Planets in houses
Another aspect to consider is planets' position by house. Each house represents a field of experience
for the couple and portends information on couple's activities and interests.
Of all houses, the 1st house - 7th house axis is of paramount importance.
In an electional chart, try having the rulers of the 1st and 7th houses as strong as possible (by
essential and accidental dignities) and if possible - in aspect with each other or at least with as much
(mutual) reception as possible - this will ensure that the two persons will show interest and there will
attraction/compatibility.
In an event chart investigate how the two significators (1st and 7th houses' rulers) relate to each other
by reception in the five essential dignities.
Angular planets talk about the overall outside conditions influencing the relationship. Two persons I
know first met with Saturn in Leo in the first house in applying square with Mars in Taurus in the 10th
house. Woman's father, a very proeminent person, never accepted his daughter's relationship with the
man for political reasons.
This is why in an electional astrology chart for a first meeting, try having benefics (Venus, Jupiter) in
angular houses and malefics (Saturn, Mars) in cadent houses.
Getting closer to the end of the article, I'll add that many times when it comes to plan a meeting there
isn't much room for adjusting, a few days at most, so mainly the only things you can control are the
Moon's aspects [and the Ascendant]. This is already an elementary level of electional astrology, so
useful in our every day life.
Don't worry about "forcing destiny's hand" with electional astrology by electing a perfect electional
chart for a otherwise lousy relationship/compatibility. The destiny is way stronger than our weak
"electional magic". The better term for this is probably collaboration. Just do your astrological
homework trying to make a difference in your life and let the destiny take care of the result.
