significator

In astrology, a significator represents a person, place, thing, or event in a chart. Choosing the correct significator is important because it will affect the accuracy of the interpretation. There are a number of factors to consider when choosing a significator, including the nature of the question being asked, the placement of the planets in the chart, and the astrologer’s own intuition.

The most important factor to consider when choosing a significator is the nature of the question being asked. For example, if the question is about a person, then the significator will be the planet that rules the person’s Sun sign. If the question is about a place, then the significator will be the planet that rules the sign on the cusp of the fourth house. If the question is about a thing, then the significator will be the planet that rules the sign on the cusp of the second house. And if the question is about an event, then the significator will be the planet that rules the sign on the cusp of the tenth house.
