If you put a lot of stock in transits then it is the most important, arguably. It would be odds on to influence almost every transit event in your life.

I have looked up transits , haven't put too much energy towards it. Do u consider transits important ?

My Cancer sun is very strong but my two Taurus placements have a heavy hitting effect too.

I would say it's a decent combo, not a full Cancer really because i am Earth dominant, plus i have a decent lashing of air & fire too.

I compliment people rather well TBH except maybe the over critical type.

No, like like Neptune, Mars, Venus, Mercury -planets.. Not signs or elements

Personally, not really. They take too much time. But that's just me.

I didn't know about Pullen or the Skywriter tests when I joined this site and created my user name and my current tag line. The copper in my user name is a Venus reference. Turns out my top planet is Venus according to Pullen and Skywriter.

I've been aware of relating to venusian things for all of my life, and also mercurial and it turns out that Mercury ranks second in my Pullen analysis.

It all boggles my mind.

I thought the most important planet or dominant planet is that of your ascendant.

In my case that would then be Uranus

According to Pullen, my dominant planet is Pluto

Planet: Position Aspects Total Rank Percent

Pluto: 47.5 ( 5) + 31.7 ( 1) = 79.2 ( 1) / 13.1%

then

Neptune: 48.5 ( 4) + 22.8 ( 3) = 71.3 ( 2) / 11.8%

then

Mercury: 51.0 ( 1) + 20.1 ( 4) = 71.1 ( 3) / 11.8%

While Uranus sits in 7th

Uranus: 50.0 ( 3) + 5.9 (10) = 55.9 ( 7) / 9.2%

Then if I go to Allen Edwall and use cosmodynes

The top 3 are as follows:

Planet Power Harmony Longitude

Uranus 48.03 11.09 10 Sco 12' 37"

Ascendant 47.30 9.07 07 Sco 45' 23"

Midheaven 42.50 0.85 26 Can 16' 21"

Yea this is kinda confusing me. Both sites should say the same thing , doesn't make sense. My rising is Virgo & its ruled by Mercury , pullen says my dominant planet is Mercury

venus (the Taurus venus, not the libra) because im Taurus dominant, not libra dominant, and Neptune, and mars (1st house)

edit -

the Deeper I get into astrology ...and my past, I see how it FITS with my 1st house, the dark side,

with the VIOLENCE, and the mars energy. mars/pluto in relationships can be dark, because they go through a kind of courageousness to go into a relationship that requires toughness. (and stupidity too you know, cause they say, courage is like being too dumb) or that you love too much but people see it as dumb dumb. the two edged sword.

theres a lot of couples who are libra dominant, different sun /moon signs but their dominant energies are libra.

ie, even Bodhi and Jenna Elfman are libra dominant. they are really awesome together.

and Tom Brady/ Giselle Budchen, libra dominant,

Matthew McConnaughy /Camila Alves...

Justin Timberlake/Jessica Biel....

so many!!

Ah, so we're the same with our top two in Pullen, just reversed! 🙂

I like your user name too. Sofia is one of my favourite names.

The Skywriter tests can be found here:

https://skywriter.wordpress.com/planetary-tests/

They're a bit cumbersome to do because they aren't automated.

It's SUPER important. At least, I can totally see it in myself.

I'm Moon-dominant, with my moon being Cancer-Leo cusp. I am totally motherly, emotionally turbulent, and also very proud and fiery. 🙂

Ok , so does it mean since I'm Mercury dominant I should go by Pisces since I'm Merc in Pisces ? Lol

1. Aries sun - Its in the 11th house, the house of originality and trine Jupiter the planet of expansion, once a astrologer said that it makes my Sun in the 11th traits get a boost. On top of that I have Mars (Aries ruler) in my 1st house.

2.My Scorpio Moon - most dominant placement of my chart.

3. Aquarius Saturn - most influential in my whole life.

Because Pullen grabs aspects also, if im not wrong, to give the real big power planet to you.

Is it really an important part of your chart ?

Yes. My chart ruler is Pluto. It forms a square to the planet that rules my Sun, Venus. What is your chart ruler?

Mercury is my chart ruler then next up is Venus

So I'm assuming that is due to you having Virgo Rising. Hmmm.. Is your Mercury heavily aspected? But yeah whatever house your chart ruler is in is important.

click to expand

No I dont think Mercury is heavily aspected .. Just Mercury trine Jupiter & Mercury opposition ascendant... Not sure if it's 100% cuz I have Virgo rising , I've been reading mixed explanations on that
