MAJOR 'LUCKY' FIXED STARS
*ALDEBARAN – Gemini 9°
"Another red star, traditionally known as 'the Torch'. Its influence is likened to Mars and it is said to give courage, great physical strength, success in battles or conflicts, and rises that follow heroism or the demonstration of enterprise. If afflicted it can be very unfortunate, suggesting danger, violence and an intemperate spirit." - Skyscript.co.uk
*SIRIUS – Cancer 14°
"The nature of Sirius is elevating and activating. If well placed it can indicate great wealth and high position, but the star can be a volatile influence and if afflicted suggests anger, danger or intemperance." - Skyscript
*REGULUS – Leo 29°-Virgo 0°
"The name means King and this star is often taken as a symbol for glory and power. Generally regarded as a beneficial star promising success and good fortune. Well placed it gives a generous and magnanimous disposition with ambition and the desire to rule, but afflicted it can show an autocratic will and an unyielding fixidity of purpose. Connected to matters of high status and leadership." - Skyscript
*SPICA – Libra 23°
"Has a reputation of being unfruitful or unfortunate for marriage, but otherwise considered one of the most fortunate stars, particularly for those concerned with arts, sciences, public office, law or religion. Can give great, unexpected success, and favours inventiveness and the mercurial arts." Skyscript
*ARCTURUS – Libra 24°
" 'Riches, honours, high renown, self-determination and prosperity by navigation and voyages'.- Robson
Reputed to bring stormy weather with its rising. Offers the potential for increase in wealth and honour, but can be intemperate and inclined towards conflict. Associated with a strong drive, perseverance and loyalty." Skyscript
*ANTERES – Sagittarius 9°
"A fiery red star that lies in opposition to Aldebaran. The name means 'similar to' or 'rival of' Mars, because both are of a similar colour and luminosity. Offers extremes of success, good fortune, danger and malevolence. Gives potential for great power, but can also indicate destruction through being rash and head-strong." - Skyscript
*VEGA (Wega) – Capricorn 15°
"Anciently called it the Harp star, Wega is generally considered favourable and is noted for bestowing artistic talent, idealism and refinement. When favourably placed upon the angles it is said to promise great success, wealth and fame linked to music or the arts. But it also has a reputation for pretentiousness, debauchery and wasted energies when afflicted." - Skyscript
*FOMALHAUT – Pisces 3°
"Generally considered beneficial and associated with eminence, fortune, and power, but if afflicted has the potential to portend disaster. Often linked with a destiny towards occult or religious and offers success for scientists and writers." -Skyscript
MAJOR 'UNLUCKY' FIXED STARS
*ALGOL – Taurus 26°
"In the constellation of Perseus, at twenty-six degrees of Taurus, there twinkles the binary star Algol, the 'Gorgon's head'." - Skyscript
Also linked in Mundane astrology to the rise and death of army, political or company leaders and heads of states or organizations.
*BETELGEUSE (Betelgeuze) – Gemini 28°
"When unfortunately located it is volatile in its influence and can show aggressiveness and unpredictability. " Skyscript
Also linked in Event Charts to death by explosion or shooting especially when on the MC. (fortunate in H10 conjunct Sun/Moon/Jupiter - Lily)
*PROCYON – Cancer 26°
"it is said to confer violence, danger or opposition, or a headstrong and active disposition which brings great drive, a will for action and eminence for those that use such energies effectively through conscious employment. When well placed Procyon can be considered a very fortunate and powerful fixed star it is, after all, the 8th brightest in the sky but usually there is a danger of impudence or as Ebertin describes it, a tendency to "want to go through the wall with their head".- Skyscript
Also linked to dog/wild animal attacks, death by animal bites and diseases spread by being bitten.
*DUBHE – Leo 15°
"Violent in the nature of Mars.
'in a nasty way if conjunct Saturn.'- Ebertin
(Conjunct Hitler's Saturn, Mao Tse Tung's Moon.)
'If Setting: In danger of being killed by wild beasts.' - George Noonan
According to Ptolemy It is said to give a quiet, prudent, suspicious, mistrustful, self-controlled, patient nature, but an uneasy spirit and great anger and revengefulness when roused."- Constellations of Words
*SCHEAT – Pisces 29°
"On the negative side, Pisces rules self-undoing. On top of that, the last degree is home to the fixed star Scheat (pronounced She-at). The effect of Scheat is---well, it’s just like it sounds. The nature of this star is similar to Saturn, meaning it can cause falls from power if one strays from the straight and narrow."- Bob Marks
"Sorry Bob but I was taught it's pronounced Sk-ee-t." - Declination
Also linked to great misfortune in Event Charts; often found in H7 or H12/ near the DC or AC and/or conjunct Vertex or Chiron in mass death charts particularly massacres, poisonings or drownings.
