BONUS: Essential Dignities

This is a more advanced astrology topic, so feel free to ignore this section until you feel ready!
In astrology, the planets have “favorite” zodiac signs to visit—and others that they’re not so keen to hang out in. These groupings are called the essential dignities.

Domicile or Home Position

In astrology, a planet’s
@Domicile
⁠
is the zodiac sign over which it has rulership. This is a separate concept from the houses of the horoscope. A planetary ruler is given to each sign, over which the planet is said to have a more powerful influence when positioned therein. A planet is considered to be in domal dignity when it is positioned in the sign it rules. This is the strongest of the five essential dignities of a planet.
Sun: in domicile in Leo
Moon: in domicile in Cancer
Mercury: in domicile in Gemini, Virgo
Venus: in domicile in Libra, Taurus
Mars: in domicile in Scorpio, Aries
Jupiter: in domicile in Sagittarius, Pisces
Saturn: in domicile in Capricorn, Aquarius
Uranus: in domicile in Aquarius
Neptune: in domicile in Pisces
Pluto: in domicile in Scorpio

Detriment

A planet is said to be in
@Detriment
⁠
, or exile, when it is positioned in the zodiac sign opposite the sign it rules (over which it has domicile). When a celestial body is in detriment it is said to be not comfortable in that sign and to tend to operate with the least strength.
Sun: in detriment in Aquarius
Moon: in detriment in Capricorn
Mercury: in detriment in Sagittarius, Pisces
Venus: in detriment in Aries, Scorpio
Mars: in detriment in Taurus, Libra
Jupiter: in detriment in Gemini, Virgo
Saturn: in detriment in Cancer, Leo
Uranus: n detriment in Leo
Neptune: in detriment in Virgo
Pluto: in detriment in Taurus

Exalted

In astrology,
@Exalted
⁠
is one of the five essential dignities of a planet. The exaltation is a place of awareness, whereas the fall is a position of weakness concerning the function of the planet. The sign position directly opposite a planet’s sign of exaltation is considered to be its fall. Each of the seven traditional planets has its exaltation in one zodiac sign.
Sun: exalted in Aries
Moon: exalted in Taurus
Mercury: exalted in Virgo
Venus: exalted in Pisces
Mars: exalted in Capricorn
Jupiter: exalted in Cancer
Saturn: exalted in Libra

Fall

An Astrological
@Fall
⁠
is the sign positioned directly opposite a planet’s sign of exaltation; it is considered to be its fall. As the exaltation is a place of awareness for the planet, the fall is a position of weakness concerning the function of the planet, including everything else the planet represents.
Sun: in fall in Libra
Moon: in fall in Scorpio
Mercury: in fall in Pisces
Venus: in fall in Virgo
Mars: in fall in Cancer
Jupiter: in fall in Capricorn
Saturn: in fall in Aries
Uranus: in fall in Taurus
Neptune: in fall in Capricorn
Pluto: in fall in Leo

What if I have planets in fall or detriment? Will I be unlucky?

Short answer: no! If you were born with a planet in fall or detriment in your birth chart, it may be an area you have to work a little harder at, or a place in your life where you have to overcome struggles. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing! Meeting adversity with, well, dignity, can build character!
In our example chart above, we have the moon in Scorpio, which is in fall. This person has likely done a lot of deep transformational work around their emotions (per their moon mandate), which has allowed them to help others do the same.
Lean into any fall or detriment planets in your chart. Get support and training, strengthen the muscle (think of it as cosmic physical therapy) and you may achieve hard-won mastery over time.

And is it lucky to have planets that are exalted or domicile?

An exaltation can act as your planetary prompt to truly shine. It affords you natural gifts or leadership abilities, a reserve of strength to draw from anytime. But because you have this boundless wellspring flowing, you may not realize your own power in some instances. Be careful not to overwhelm people with all that energy!
A domicile planet can help you exude a balanced or neutral energy. You are “at home” in whatever area of life that planet rules. Since the planet is in its native land, you have a double-strength dose of its powers at your disposal. Wield them mindfully.
⁠
Take some time to identify your natal planets’ essential dignity! Once you’ve identified them, clear this table and plug them in below. Use the drop down menu to filter by each type of ED. This will give you a clear view of which energies dominate your chart!

Don’t forget: planets that do not fall into any of the four ED categories are still having an effect on your chart (choose “blank” in the drop down to view them!)
