[6:57] Labor Day Monday in the U.S. brings the Moon in Cancer square Venus in Libra at 6:39 am, then void-of-course until 9:49 am, when it enters Leo. A quiet, homebody energy tempered by sociable Venus in Libra. [8:48] Interview with Linea Van Horn: Professional astrologer since 1998, founder of the San Francisco Astrological Society, member of ISAR and OPA. [9:23] Moving House in the Horoscope. The 4th house cusp (IC) as the primary indicator for moves, with the 10th house (MC) and its square points as secondary sensitive areas. [13:23] Transits to the IC – Outer Planet Meanings Jupiter: Moving to a bigger place Saturn: Structural or forced change (Linea's eviction story) Uranus: Shocking, unexpected change; "upgrade" and "emancipation" (Maurice Fernandez) Neptune: Water problems, plumbing issues, underwater mortgages Pluto: Dramatic, life-changing transformation [20:06] Progressed angles as additional functional points. The progressed Moon (one degree per month) as a precise timer. Reference to Bernadette Brady's Predictions in Astrology. [24:03] Ruler of the 4th House The planet ruling the IC sign as another indicator. Linea prefers traditional rulers (Jupiter over Neptune, Mars over Pluto) for their movement and action. [25:27] Example – The Moving Couple. Husband: Uranus exactly on IC — shocking job loss led to a better job with reduced rent. Wife: four simultaneous indicators including Jupiter over IC, solar arc Moon over IC, and progressed Moon square natal Moon. [31:42] When someone doesn’t move, look for stability indicators. Redirecting restless energy through remodeling, gardening, or career shifts. [35:01] When transits don't support a move, look ahead 2–5 years for a more promising window. Clients often already sense the timing. [37:38] Make sure to check out Linea’s website, no matter what she says about it! Find her at UAC, where she’s organizing the Marion D. March Regulus Awards at UAC. [39:36] And that's a wrap for the first day of The Seventh Annual Big Sky Astrology Podathon! And be sure to make your donation at BigSkyAstropod.com.
