The "Big Four" Asteroids

One student who has dealt with several families in which child sexual abuse is common sees a prominent Juno (on angles, personal planets, strong aspects) among the horoscopes.

Jimmy Carter has Juno rising in 1st house, conjunct Saturn (working partnership - which he and Rosalyn have always had). Several clients who are strongly involved with the arts (some professionally) have Juno conjunct Ascendant, Venus, or Sun. One gentleman had Juno conjunct his Midheaven exactly. He was a very successful movie producer (the artistic connection), but had major challenges in his partnerships - both marriages and business partnerships. (The issues revolved around power, control, authority questions.) In synastry, Juno contacts (especially with Venus, Sun, Moon, Juno itself or Ascendant/Descendant) can indicate strong attraction. Sometimes those "hits" help to explain a relationship that doesn't "make sense" in most other ways (very different ages, background, etc.).

In 1945 and 1946, Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron (all of which may yearn for more than is possible, seek the ideal) were in Libra. Juno was there as well from late 1945 into 1946. People born then have extra strong issues around expectations in relationships, where they seek meaning, how much they idealize partners, partnership, or sharing. Their challenge is to see the best, share dreams, without expecting partners to provide Heaven on Earth - or trying to be all to (rescue, save) a partner/spouse.

I hope that this brief glimpse into the world of asteroids has tempted you to at least "put them in" your charts. When they are prominent, you’ll be really glad you have them there!
