THE HARMONIOUS ASPECTS

These tend to make the feelings warm and cordial; they indicate what we should generally
call an affectionate warm-hearted person, even though other configurations may deny expression.
On the other hand, in an emotional map there may be expression of an unrestrained kind, or gush;
or, again, there may be a highly strung condition due to a lack of adequate expression.
The contacts are invigorating to the sexual nature, but in this respect appear in the maps of
spinsters. This fact is probably due to the feelings of independence which they give and the love of
freedom of thought or action; sometimes these traits even verge on the masterful.
They are very favourable for the family-life, provided that the planets are well placed all
depends on this, as has been stated in the Introduction. The affections are rich and generous, and
like will beget like in the shape of many kindnesses received. Mars, representing the rough side of
life, is, as it were, blunted and mitigated by the Venus influence. It is decidedly good for men in their
relations with women; they are likely to be helped in every respect, and often acquire both beauty
and affection in marrirage, and, by no means rarely, money as well.
