Total Dominance Revisited

From the beginning of this blog your author has had an idea that genius is more than the constellations of dominance. Some of these ideas have already been implicitly shared. When studying the top performancers, it came to the author that there has to be dominance with respect to other planets than Sun and Moon too. And so it seems to be.

So we have "total dominance" that we have defined earlier in the following way: In the constellation of dominance, there has to be a constellation that is formed by aspects, midpoints or midpoint axes  so that the following conditions are fulfilled.

1) presence of Sun and/or Moon
2) presence of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or NN (one or several of these)
3) presence of Pluto
4) if NN is present in the constellation, so must be Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus or Neptune (one or several of these).
5) midpoints of Mercury, Venus and Mars are excluded if there are less than 3 midpoints or 6 six planets forming the constellation that is formed using these planets.  It occurred to the author we can use the similar "recipe" for the other planets too. What would be the name of this kind of constellation? Well, if an original idea was that the total dominance is build upon Sun and/or Moon, then would appear logical to consider these other constellations "partial dominance". If we had for example the constellation that involves Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto, this would the partial dominance, Mercury related. This leads our thoughts to the following dilemma: is it consistent to talk about total dominance, when we have at the same time "partial dominance" that is independent from "total dominance". We could solve this problem by changing the definition of "partial dominance". Or we could do the same to "total dominance".   How we could redefine total dominance? Well, when we have a totality? It is when if have all the parts that are part of totality. And the parts here are all the personal planets Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars. When all these planets have a "partial dominance" then we can refer to this situation as "total dominance".  This is a quite rigorous requirement and it is expected that not many people pass this "total dominance" test. On the other hand, that is also what we want. There are some options. We could stick to this and accept that not all the geniuses/top performances pass. Or we could loosen up the requirements of partial dominance. The requirement of partial dominance could for example be the following: 1) presence of planet X (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars)
2) presence of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or NN (one or several of these)
3) presence of Pluto
4) if NN is present in the constellation, so must be Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus or Neptune (one or several of these).
5) the planet that is a part of constellation have to be a farther planet than planet X.   The condition 5) is because if the planet is not a farther planet than planet X, the constellation is not about the planet X, but about the planet that is the closest to the Sun.   Another option is to use both requirements. We could have the original definition of total dominance for Sun and/or Moon and the looser requirement for other planets. Now we have a lot different possibilities, and I think that it is not that we would have choose now, but we can "wait and see". We can look at the charts and see what definitions actualize. We start this right away.  Remember Leonardo da Vinci? If not, check the previous post. Leonardo's Sun, Moon and Venus have the constellations of dominance that fulfill our original definition of total dominance. In case of Venus Ve/Sa=Pluto is enough. What about Mercury and Mars? Below is the chart.  

    The constellations of dominance that are related to Mars are marked by the colour red. Similarly with respect to Mercury the colour blue is used. There's an error in the position of the blue line, but let us forget that for now. We can notice that Mars' constellation of dominance is quite clear: Ma/Ur=Pluto (90), and there is also a T square that includes midpoint of Ju/NN. With respect to Mercury, there's a midpoint constellation Me/Pl=Ma/Ne. This meets our loose criteria for partial dominance. There is one Jupiter+ planet (Neptune) and both Mercury and Pluto in the constellation. A hard criteria is not met as in that case all the planets involved in the constellation have to be Jupiter+ planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). However, it can be noted that Mercury has an aspect to both Saturn and Pluto. In addition Sa/Pl midpoint is 9.37' Vi and Mercury is 9.16' Ar, so a quincunx is an exact one. Quincunxes are not usually used in midpoints. I think that they work, as well as many other aspects too, but one has to confine astrological factors used in order deal with the multitude of them. Be that as it may, quincunx aspects are something to think about. Overall, when a looser criteria is used for the other planets than Sun and/or Moon (and in this case Venus and Mars are included too), the total dominance is achieved in Leonardo's chart.
