Signs Doctrine

When the Ascendant ruler and sect light witness one another by whole-sign ray, the chart's governing planet and primary luminary remain directly connected.

When the Ascendant ruler and sect light are in aversion, the governing planet and primary luminary lack a direct whole-sign connection.

Two bodies whose signs do not join by the classical ray families are read as in aversion at the whole-sign relation layer.

Two bodies in signs joined by conjunction, sextile, square, trine, or opposition are read as witnessing by whole-sign ray.
