Example Of Legal Election

Time of Election: 1:30 pm, EDT, June 3, 2000
Place of Election: Washington, D.C. 77W03 38N55
Regiomontanus Houses


This chart is an example of an election for a legal case. The time and date could have been used to file a pleading or begin the entire case with the filing of the complaint. It also could have been used as a trial or hearing date and time, but these are rarely under the control of a party.
In this chart Virgo rises, so Mercury is the significator of the elector, that is the person who is using the election. Mercury is peregrine, but in the angular 10th house. At first glance this does not seem like the best choice as significator. We must remember, however, that elections are rarely perfect, and this one has particular advantages.
First, the sign on the 10th house cusp is Gemini, making the significator of the judge also Mercury. This means the judge will favor the elector as they signified by the same planet. Secondly, the Moon is making an applying conjunction to Mercury, with reception as Mercury is in Cancer. Since the Moon is in her sign and conjoining Mercury she relieves him of his peregrine status. As Pisces is on the 7th house cusp, Jupiter is the significator of the opponent. Jupiter is peregrine, in the cadent 9th house and conjunct Algol, the most malefic fixed star.
We now look to the 13th century Italian astrologer Guido Bonatti's rules of war found in his Liber Astronomiae Tractus Sextus, Chapter XXI and translated by Robert Zoller. This translation is available at his website, http://www.new-library.com/zoller/books/
bonatti/war.shtml. As an attorney and astrologer I can attest that lawsuits are a form of warfare and astrologers treat them both as 7th house questions.
Bonatti suggests that we choose a superior planet as our significator, unfortunately we have not been able to do that. However, he also recommends placing our significator in an angular house and the opponent in a cadent house, which we have done. Bonatti then says that if the lord of the 1st is in the 10th, as here, that he will be stronger than all who come against him and that he will conquer them all, unless by chance it is a multitude without number.
So we have picked a time when the opponent is afflicted by cadency and the fixed star Algol, while we are favored by the judge, conjoining a strong Moon and in the angular 10th house. On to victory!
