The third decanate of Taurus
Taurus Horoscope Today and Always, Third Decanate
The third decanate of Taurus is influenced by Saturn, when we find the ascendant or the sun in it, it is advisable to observe the strength or weakness of Saturn in the natal system, likewise the strength of the 10th sector in the overall personal horoscope.
In the third decanate of Taurus, we find around 24° Capulus, this is approximately equivalent to May 14th, although the positions can be found here, the fixed stars so called because of their slow movement vary, and it depends on the year of birth the exact place where they are located. Capulus is a group of stars located in the hand of Perseus, and its influence appears to affect vision, although its effect is not especially powerful in relation to other stars.
Next we have the influence of the star Algol, this star is of notable importance, however its influence is usually not beneficial, it is traditionally associated with the diamond, however it is likely that the dark legend of this mineral, as well as the power attributed to it are directly related to the influence of this star, currently when it comes to the sun, influence on May 17 or 18. Algol represents the head of Medusa, let us remember that Perseus used the head of this gorgon because it turned to stone all those who looked at it. It is therefore a star to which its own power is attributed, its influence is related to Saturn and Jupiter, and it only seems to benefit those who are involved with war, even in this case, it can cause a violent end.
It seems that the combined influence of this star and the sign of Taurus attract difficulties in relation to the throat, this particular star is traditionally associated with respiratory difficulties caused in the neck or throat, we have as an example the former ruler of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, whose death was caused by hanging.
It is evident that in this case as in any other it is necessary to observe the whole chart, since the mere influence of the sun on this star or any other does not indicate a concrete destiny, in the case mentioned of the former Iraqi dictator, it is easy to see how other influences pushed in the same direction.
Finally, we will mention the influence of the Pleiades, the Pleiades according to legend were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione, the influence will be greater just at the end of the sign of Taurus, the Pleiades belong to the so-called fixed stars, which are changing tropical astrological sign, and surely are conditioning a general change in the tone of the sign.
Its influence is said to belong to a mixed Lunar Mars character, and although they can give higher fevers than normal, and even it is said that problems of smallpox or some kind of effect on the face, they can also elevate the nature of the person born under its influence, and highlight the prominence of this, it is a truly sensitive place, and very dependent on the whole natal theme, that when it is especially beneficial comes out very favored, and when tension aspects are assailed, they can increase.
