For those of you who do not know what sect is, and that want too, you may either read below or scroll to the very bottom where I'll include a YouTube videoMost Simplistic Description

• An important concept in astrological tradition is the distinction between day and night charts, which is associated with a technical concept known as “sect.”More Detailed Description

• The term “sect” is a translation of the Greek word hairesis (αἵρεσις), which was often used in the Greco-Roman period to refer to a “group,” “faction” or “team” of people that adhere to a specific set of tenets or views.

• Within the context of western astrology the term sect refers to a scheme whereby the visible planets are divided into two groups or “sects”: a diurnal or daytime sect which is led by the Sun, and a nocturnal or nighttime sect which is led by the Moon. The Sun, Jupiter and Saturn comprise the diurnal sect, while the Moon, Venus and Mars comprise the nocturnal sect. This results in a distinction between a diurnal team of planets and a nocturnal team of planets.

• Mercury is considered to be intrinsically neutral, as it often is in astrology, but it is usually said to ally itself with the diurnal sect when it is a morning star, or conversely it allies itself with the nocturnal sect when it is an evening star.

• A planet’s sect status alters the quality of that planet in the chart and the way that it acts as a benefic or malefic, for better or worse. The malefic planets, Mars and Saturn, tend to be particularly problematic when they are contrary to the sect in favor, or the malefics can be quite benign and even beneficial or constructive when they are of the sect in favor.

• The same is true for the benefic planets Jupiter and Venus. Jupiter tends to be even more benefic in a day chart, and Venus tends to be more benefic in a night chart. Conversely, Jupiter tends to have some of its more positive significations restrained in a night chart, while Venus’ benefic significations are slightly inhibited in a day chart.

• There are also two additional sect related ‘rejoicing conditions’ that are of lesser or secondary importance in the overall analysis of sect in a chart.

• The first rejoicing condition is related to the horizon, and the gist of it is that diurnal planets prefer to be above the horizon during the day and below the horizon at night. Conversely, the nocturnal planets prefer to be below the horizon during the day and above the horizon at night.

• The second additional sect related rejoicing condition is simply that the nocturnal planets prefer to be in nocturnal signs (which are the same as the feminine signs) while the diurnal planets prefer to be in diurnal signs (which are identified with the masculine signs).Above all it should be stated that the main determination with regards to sect in a chart is simply whether the chart in question is a diurnal or nocturnal chart, and which planets are of the sect in favor and which planets are contrary to the sect in favor.

• The two additional sect considerations according to the horizon and according to sign play a somewhat reduced or minor role in changing the sect status of the planets.

What are you Apparition?

My Sun is Contrariety Of Hayz in pretty much every regard.

My Moon is above the horizon (day side); however, it is 'rejoicing' in a night sign.

Overall my chart is Nocturnal by horizon; though, the bulk of my planetary placements are diurnal in sign.

My malefic planets are also located within their preferential horizon and sign qualities; 😌.

As for my beneficial planets... Jupiter it's not in it's beneficial diurnal sect, but it is in it's rejoicing day sign. Venus is in its beneficial Nocturnal, but is not in its rejoicing night sign. Haha.

My chart has a ton of neutrality in it. There's always something to cancel out something. My elemental split is almost 50/50 fire water. My sect is almost split 50/50. My aspects are almost 50/50 between trine and squares. Excetera. Excetera.



Fun times.

How about your chart? Do you have some sort of positive or negative influential consistency with yours, or do you find a lot of neutrality in yours as well?
