The Anaretic Degree - 29º - Do you have any placement?

The 29th degree of any sign is considered the anaretic degree. The anaretic degree is accidentally weak at the end of a sign; therefore, it signifies the end of a cycle. This degree represents either getting too much or too little of something. The last degree often describes a desperate situation. The sign that the celestial point or planet occupies represents the area of life that remains unsatified. But the planet is readily looking forward to the lessons and cycles promised at its ingress into a new sign. The last degree of any sign holds much karmic significance.



Its like the sign in a hurry because another sign (energy) is coming.

Placements in this degree have some sense of urgency in its matters.

I have Mars in Gemini 29° and I really feel this power.

What about you guys?!

I have Pisces MC too, still trying to figure it out...Lets see what this Transit Mars bring for us, read the signals especially where you focus will go soon.

According to cafeastrology:

"If a natal planet is found at 29 degrees of any sign, also known as the Anaretic degree, there can be some real issues with decision-making in that part of the personality represented by the energies of the planet. The native may evaluate and re-evaluate situations before making a move one day, and the next day, jump into the action without listening to himself or herself! For example, if Mars is at 29 degrees, the native may devise many plans of actions, worry excessively about the possible actions and different routes to take, and then execute a spontaneous action that is contrary to the decision!"

I've noticed the lack of consistency over its definition too... Same with the critical 0 degree whose interpretation I'm still uncertain about and it's my sun -_-

Yeah, its like a sense of urgency. My Mars 29° is really like that, Im overly active physically/mentally and there is always a urge to do stuff, to use all this energy but I guess the aspects tell what is the result of this urgency.

Mars sextile Mercury is the only aspect but I can say to you that I rarely miss a target and can perform anything that has to do with motor coordination.

well i’m at this point on life now where i’ve figured to enjoy the present. as cliche as it sounds. i think that’s the lesson of our mc?

personally i’m working on my skills, prioritising the one that can make me money; the one that keeps me fit; then those that keep my mind at peace. then from that alone i’ll always be fine in life. it’s the idea that i need to have huge career goals that unsettles me

Yeah, I guess this is the Pisces energy making it blurry and hard to define. I've spent years trying to figure out what Im good at and what my path is but recently I've started to let it be, to enjoy each day and each moment.

We have Virgo in the IC that is asking for us to be self critical at the core and keep working on ourselves even when nobody is watching.

I really love arts, music, acting and sculpture (bodybuilding) but I was never able to make any Money out of it but somehow I feel like life is screaming on my ear " Do the f*cking work everyday, sacrifice and trust your path " but at the same time I've never been good at predicting events.

Well, my Pisces MC trine Mars (physical and muscle) and Moon (food, habits and routine), the two key factors of bodybuilding but until now (I'm 27) nothing happened but now is the first time that Im doing the sacrifices required in order to achieve an unreal physique, lets see what happens.
