My siblings and I share ownership of my deceased mother’s house. My eldest sister resides there. Each fall we send sister our share of the fee to renew the homeowner’s insurance.
I’ve had mail get lost en route to my sister's address before. I’d sent this check at the end of October and she still hadn’t received it. The question emerged, “Will sister get my check?” Nov
13, 2025 at 9:11 p.m. in Milwaukee, WI, USA.
The two planets that matter most in this horary are the ruler of the second house (my money, because I am the querent) and the ruler of the third house (my sibling). My money is signified by the Sun, ruler of Leo on the second house cusp. My sister is signified by Mercury, ruler of Virgo on the third house cusp.
Is there any way we can connect the Sun (the check I wrote) to Mercury (my sister) by aspect? They are in adjacent signs, so the answer is no. There can be no aspect between the two planets
without the Sun changing signs, which would be taking the Sun too far.
In lost-object horaries we often use the Moon’s movement to determine if the object will be found. Here, we cannot connect the Moon (as the flow of events) and Mercury (my sister) by aspect,
either. And look at the Moon: it’s closely conjunct the South Node at 14 Virgo. The South Node acts like a barrier or a stop sign here. These together confirm that my sister will not receive the
check.
And this proved true: the check never arrived, nor was it ever found. I ended up sending a second check inside a bubble envelope with delivery confirmation to ensure that it could be tracked.
Thankfully, that second check did arrive.
Is there anything else we need to find out from this chart? My approach to horary astrology is, “Keep it simple.” I won’t try to interpret anything else here. For example, I won’t interpret what
it means that my sister’s planet is in such bad shape in the context of this question, or what Mars represents, having just separated from conjunction with Mercury. It’s curious and interesting
to ponder, but in the end it’s speculative. We got the answer to our question, and that is enough.
