Hippiestrology

Each planet is classified as being Dignified or Debilitated depending on which Sign and House it is in, along with many other factors.

When a planet is Dignified, it’s expression is usually strong and/or positive. When a planet is Debilitated, it’s expression is usually weaker and/or negative.

Let’s pretend the Natal Chart is a Play. The Signs are Actors, the planets are the Roles, and the Houses are a Stage. Did you watch The Dark Knight? In that version of the Batman-Joker rivalry, the Joker is played by the very talented Heath Ledger. He did an excellent job of portraying the anarchic character of the Joker. Now, can you imagine, say, Jonah Hill playing the Joker? Not that Jonah isn’t talented, but this actor doesn’t quite match up to that role. That’s sort of how Dignity and Debility work. Some Signs are better suited to the expression of the planets than others.

Dignity and Debility comes in two basic tiers; Essential and Accidental. Essential is easy to gauge, and accidental is more complex. Today we will stick with Essential. 

Ptolemy defined these placements of the Planets as “essential” because these are where the traditional planets are always dignified or always debilitated. These exclusively consider the Planet’s placement by Sign. 

DOMICILE

Each planet has a Domicile, or home, Sign – this is the Sign it rules over. When a planet is in a Domicile position, it is able to fulfill its role and often has a strong and positive manifestation.

This is when the planet is in its home. The actor is perfectly suited to their role. The expression of this planet it positive and/or strong.

Sun in Leo

Moon in Cancer

Mercury in Gemini or Virgo

Venus in Taurus or Libra

Mars in Aries

Jupiter in Sagittarius

Saturn in Capricorn

Uranus in Aquarius

Neptune in Pisces

Pluto in Scorpio

DETRIMENT

When a planet is in the sign opposite the one it rules, its manifestation is often negative, misused, weakened, or non-existent.

The actor is very poorly suited to their role. They struggle to express themselves properly - their core nature conflicts that of the role they are trying to assume.

Sun in Aquarius

Moon in Capricorn

Mercury in Sagittarius or Pisces

Venus in Aries or Scorpio

Mars in Libra

Jupiter in Gemini

Saturn in Cancer

Uranus in Leo

Neptune in Virgo

Pluto in Taurus

EXALTATION

While this isn’t the sign a Planet rules over, it is one of similar nature. This planet will have strength and energy, and a positive influence.

The actor that is well suited to their role. The expression of this planet is positive and/or strong (not quite as strong/positive as Domicile). 

Traditionally, these are seen as specific degrees, but “can” be expanded to the entire sign. For simplicity sake, below is just the sign.

Sun in Aries

Moon in Taurus

Mercury in Scorpio

Venus in Pisces

Mars in Capricorn

Jupiter in Cancer

Saturn in Libra

Uranus in Scorpio

Neptune in Cancer

Pluto in Pisces

FALL

The Opposite Sign as the Exaltation Sign, this sign causes the planets energy to lose strength and/or energy.

The actor is not well suited to their role.  The expression of this planet is negative and/or weak (not quite as weak/negative as Detriment).

Traditionally, these are seen as specific degrees, but “can” be expanded to the entire sign.

Sun in Libra

Moon in Scorpio

Mercury in Taurus

Venus in Virgo

Mars in Cancer

Jupiter in Capricorn

Saturn in Aries

Uranus in Taurus

Neptune in Capricorn

Pluto in Virgo

And it gets slightly more complex.

How to spot an Aries Ascendant: They move/walk quickly, might be fast talkers, usually the first to show up at an event or party. They have quick tempers, but are also quick to forgive & forget. They can be competitive, and are often naturally athletic. Aries ascendants appear fearless because they are so quick to act. But, they can also be impatient, and act without thinking.

How to spot a Taurus Ascendant: They are very patient and don’t like to rush, so they take their time when walking, working on projects, etc. They are resistant to change, and need stability, so before making a big decision they need to feel secure. As a sign ruled by Venus, Taurus has an eye for beauty, and as an earth sign they like tangible, material things. So Taurus Ascendants often dress well, collect nice things, and even may own multiple properties

How to spot a Gemini Ascendant: They are curious people who ask a lot of questions. They love to talk, and often do so with many hand gestures. At social events they are the ones going from group to group, mingling with everyone. They are clever, and always have something witty to say. Gemini ascendants are often found doing crosswords, puzzles or other mind games.

How to spot a Cancer Ascendant: They are often people with kind faces, who seem shy at first until they open up later, (once getting to know you). They may be easily embarrassed or flustered.

Pictures of friends, family and fond memories will proudly be on display.

How to spot a Leo Ascendant: How can you not? They love the limelight! Leo ascendants are often found on stage, they love performing. They are hedonist who will most likely host a lot of events in their home. If their sun sign is a more reserved type, then you might find Leo ascendants enjoying a party rather than hosting one. Since Leo loves attention, they might wear flashy clothes or bright colors so you don’t miss them walking by!

How to spot a Virgo Ascendant: They are perfectionist, so expect everything about them to appear ‘perfect’. They will have very clean homes, and be neatly dressed with exceptional personal hygiene. They are often very health conscious, and may practice yoga or take up jogging. They will also try there best to eat clean. Virgo ascendants are naturally quite humble, so (depending on sun sign) they may appear to be shy or reserved. As practical beings they will most likely only own things they actually use/need.

How to spot a Libra Ascendant: They place a high importance on personal appearance, and as a sign ruled by Venus have an appreciation for beauty. This means these people are more likely to dress up often. They will always be well groomed. They are charming and flirty, so if they are single you can expect them to be flirting with the opposite (or same) sex. If they’re in a relationship they will be very openly affectionate with their partner, and may even be attached at the hip with them. Their homes will certainly be decorated and visually appealing.

How to spot a Scorpio Ascendant: They are very private and protective of their personal space, so they may not appear to be the warmest and most welcoming people. (Not to say they aren’t nice or friendly, they’re just selective of who the let their guard down with.) This leads others to perceive them as mysterious. They often have strong opinions, and they will always speak their mind.

How to spot a Sagittarius Ascendant: They are always on the look for their next adventure. They are likely to be well travelled, as well as somewhat of a dare-devil. They might take up extreme sports like motocross or ski jumping. Sagittarius ascendants are highly optimistic and will always be smiling. If they have a less spirited sun sign, then, they may enjoy watching the extreme, rather than participating. That means you might find them in the stands at a car race, or at home watching shows like ‘fear factor’.

How to spot a Capricorn Ascendant: They are a more serious and traditional bunch. This earth sign loves organization and planning. They will have tidy homes, desk and a real ‘put together’ sense of style. A surprising love for good jokes means you might find them at a comedy club, or catchy a funny movie. They are very ambitious and will probably spend more time working than other signs. They’re the ones who will work overtime or weekends, simply because they want to. Their reputation is of high importance to them. 

How to spot an Aquarius Ascendant: They enjoy being different, they may dress in unconventional outfits that others find strange. They are a social bunch who want to make an impact on society. They may have hobbies or interest that others find peculiar. They need their personal freedom, so it’s not uncommon for a person with this ascendant to be a ‘lone wolf’ type. Unlike Capricorn, they don’t really care about how others perceive them. 

The Sun makes life on earth possible with its light and warmth and can be seen during the day. It is the force that gives you the vital energy to take action, your light of consciousness, how you act rather than react, your identity, ego and self-presentation.

Libra: Also trying to find something good about the movie. Eventually laughing, but still telling everyone what parts of the movie are good.
