INTRODUCTION TO THE READING OF THE DOMINANT ELEMENT

The Four Zodiac Elements - Fire, Earth, Air and Water - reveal the pet’s type of socio-psycho-ethological inclination: the character, the predisposition to specific learning tasks, the sensitivity, the relationships with other living beings.

If you do not have the time of birth, it is possible to calculate a basic birth chart without domification, outlining specific and eloquent traits and characteristics and identifying the dominant zodiac element in the general picture (prevalence in its Birth Chart of Fire, Earth, Air or Water values), that is to define which type of energy the an ...

PET WITH EARTH DOMINANT ELEMENT (connected to Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn values)

The Earth dominant Element is slow, measured and calm: those with this dominant are firm as the element that represents them, but only on the surface (earth generates life, in the form of nourishment). Vital energy is expressed in these animals in the form of strong temperament, caution, reliability, predictability, stamina/determination. Putting down roots in the surrounding environment is essential, just like the soil that provides the nourishment to survive. Their nature is simple and practical, connected to physical well-being (food, sleep, pleasure, space, objects, comfort - food/sex as motivation), the ideal family (mixed social group) is where they can interact and achieve "resources" related to the satisfaction of pleasure, showing a great ability to reassure and interact with the people of the social group. They have a "possessive" nature (and can be particularly lazy, static, stubborn). Training paths can be opposite to the creative-energetic Fire Dominant Element or Air speed-dynamism in favour of routine.

For this dominant, a calm and measured approach does not represent a source of boredom or poor stimulation, on the contrary, it gives the pet peace and quiet (and therefore well-being and security in the reference environment). An excess of the Earth Element in the natal chart can indicate, for example in dogs, a strong need for security and stability, attachment to its reference environment, strong temper and determination, marked possessiveness and aggressiveness if they happen to be too stressed or provoked in the defence of their territory.

INTRODUCTION TO THE READING OF THE EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT MODEL

The role of the Moon in the pet’s types of attachment (emotional bond) and relational development

The Moon in the pet's birth chart represents: the inner self (how the living being was nurtured and taken care of, what the puppy’s early stage of life was like, if it was influenced by conflicting, independent, adventurous relationships, etc.), the pet’s level of trust towards others (which emotional imprinting is applied in the emotional relationships with its caregivers, conspecifics, etc.) and its fears/vulnerability in relationships.

The bond between pet and human ...

ENMESHING ATTACHMENT

If the Moon is connected with Neptune, the pet expresses a marked emotional nature (often with the conjunction), where the pet struggles to conform to a specific routine, as Neptune makes the boundaries of emotional perception blurred and confused. If Mars joins the already delicate connection between the Moon and Neptune, a "rebellious type of attachment" could occur, with episodes of sudden aggressiveness, based on experiences of abandonment or traumatic separation, with strong emotional dependence (separation anxiety, emotional ambivalence). The anger of Mars would express itself in a dysfunctional way and against the attachment figure (the Moon).

INTRODUCTION TO THE READING OF MERCURY IN THE BIRTH CHART

The role of Mercury in the Pet's birth chart

Mercury in the natal chart represents the functions of the pet's intelligence: the mental dynamics of its relationships (especially with "human" parents), the upbringing (as a development tool through communication), the training (teaching new skills and specific practical tasks) and play , as a means of learning between members of the same species (intraspecific ) or of different species, such as humans (interspecific).

Adaptation to family life, therefore, represents ...

MERCURY IN CANCER

It stimulates an almost symbiotic bond towards the attachment figure, as an eternal puppy-child in search of constant attention and contact (aspects of the Moon and Neptune with Mercury have to be considered). The mind is receptive and susceptible, the memory is excellent. Learning can be both fast and slow, depending on the emotional involvement of the pet.

MERCURY WITH EARTH DOMINANT: strength, stamina, patience, perseverance
Positive aspects: reliability, tolerance, predictability, docility
Excess: stubbornness, excessive attachment to territory, objects and people, slowness, behavioural disorders
Deficiency: inability to survive, poor adaptability, behavioural disorders

INTRODUCTION TO THE READING OF MARS AS THE LEVEL OF ENERGY AND AGGRESSIVENESS

Mars in the animal natal chart, analysed along with the characteristics of species and race, represents:

- vital energy, the impulse to take action meant as level of aggressiveness (literally "going towards"): in its positive meaning, the essential component for the preservation of every living being as the species’ inborn instinct to survive in the surrounding environment. If the level of aggressiveness is badly handled by humans, primarily with communication mistakes between different species, it can lead to possible behaviour issues in the pet, increasing the intensity of i ...

MARS IN LEO

It gives the pet physical strength, energy, enthusiasm, exuberance and self-confidence; extroversion appears as the desire to dominate in its positive meaning (being confident and relaxed in the surrounding environment): an excess of energy can however become a tendency to be overbearing, exposing the animal to the danger of external aggressive reactions.

Aggressiveness level 4 (lowest level): SUBMISSION

The signs of animal submission (lying down, showing the belly, wagging the tail) indicate the acceptance of the hierarchy of the pack in a subordinate position with respect to another subject that is recognised as the leader or higher in hierarchy: submission is the non-hostile behaviour that develops at a very early age, when the mother looks after the newborn puppy by licking it. There is a submission that corresponds to fear (the pet, when faced with an aggressive-dominant subject, shows that it wants the latter to be tolerant and not overbearing), based on deep and unconscious insecurity (Sun - Pluto conjunction and challenging aspects), and cause for frustration and anxiety for the pet, which is looking for a way out with distress/ stress.

However, there is also a healthier submission that is based on respect and trust (supported by positive aspects in the birth chart), for example when the pet is happy to see its human owner and expresses this trust, affection and joy by showing its belly (in dogs, this is a sign of vulnerability: the area protects the vital organs), looking for protection and safety (the animal that disobeys is therefore the one that does not recognise the human as the leader of the pack). Healthy submission is a metaphor for the diligent child who understands and accepts the rules of the parents: what is pleasant for the pet (cuddles, treats, human attention) can be granted as a reward for the animal’s correct behaviour. Submission is influenced by emotions in the Mars - Moon conjunction (where action and emotions collide in susceptibility, mood swings, and where submission is experienced with fear and insecurity). Also Mars – Venus challenging aspects raises the level of sensitivity generating conflicting reactions (love-hate) and exposing the pet to chronic stress and discomfort.

The Mars - Neptune aspects (conjunction and opposition), as a combination of very different energies, have a mitigating effect on the level of aggression, even though Neptune may often affect the behaviours in an unpredictable and unclear way, since the “undefined” is its archetype by nature: submission becomes here the pet's search for emotional attention and affection, with, however, a perception of danger and reality that is distorted, and misjudgements related to people, situations and environments (aspects that are enhanced by Water values in the Birth Chart). Neptune can amplify, both in a good and bad way, the pet’s intuition, sensitivity and need to rely on third parties as safe "guides" (if a Sun – Neptune conjunction is there, the animal tends to let itself be guided willingly, empathetic and tolerant, with the risks that such reliance involves in terms of emotional exposure).

INTRODUCTION TO THE READING OF PLANETARY DOMINANTS

Knowing the pet’s dominant - that is the planetary typology with which the pet is more in tune - means to understand why some physical, mental and relational traits characterise it to the point of becoming a sort of identity card through which the pet interact with the outside world. However, let’s not forget that pure dominants are very rare: each animal is always the result of all the energies of its birth chart and the same subject is generally affected by the influence of two or more planets, although with a different impact. For this reason, the dominant must constantly be analysed along with a co-dom ...

SOLAR DOMINANT

The pet that has the Solar dominant is connected to the Fire element, as suggested by the star that is synonymous with energy, light and heat par excellence, in the form of charisma and temperament. Just like the Sun, the character inclinations of the Solar pet "shine": standing out, being a leader or wanting to be the centre of attention within the social group, the pack and the family group are a constant need for the Solar pet. This behaviour is regulated by the aspects of the natal chart that can intensify or weaken the imposing vital drive. Among the positive qualities of its nature, what stands out is generosity (especially when it comes to rescue dogs or assistance dogs), along with gentleness, intelligence and courage.

They have an extroverted, bubbly, effusive nature, want to be protagonists and leaders, and need attention and material and emotional care. For the Solar dominant, it is important to have an environment to control on a territorial level: they are attached to objects and members of the "clan", and comfort must reign supreme (beds, sofas, "territorial fields" for the cat, its places of belonging).

At times impulsive and touchy, Solar pets get along well with the children of the family and tend to protect them and take care of them: they are alike, enthusiastic about the world in a genuine way.

As for their physical appearance, the Solar pets share some features with the Venusian (especially the thick and shiny fur): they have harmonious appearance and body structure, intense and expressive eyes, they are energetic and focused on the surrounding environment. Tactile, visual and olfactory territorial markings are signals that the Solar pet may often use to raise its status within the social group, also to show inclusion of the members in the family group (rubbing on reference humans and searching for contact, as it happens with cats); in order to evaluate how much these aspects express dominant attitudes of the animal, the relationship with the mother (attachment) and the inclinations of the breed should be also taken into account.

Solar dogs show a tendency for behaviours of social dominance and assertiveness: they are not aggressive, but confident in their actions and presence, and ready to take action if necessary.

Unlike the Martian, the Solar animal is not overly aggressive or domineering: their more static and less restless nature expects a sort of respect and gratitude towards them rather than overbearing actions to be performed. The Solar animal usually tends to pay little attention to the commands of its human owners, out of spirit of "regality" and boldness and rarely out of aversion, fear, misunderstanding: it is often more interested in its own well-being than in attention outside the self-referenced sphere. Its leadership does not necessarily follow the law of the strongest/dominant (this happens more for the Martian), but, if the natal chart is well balanced, it is an authoritative leadership.

In the development of the Solar pet, collaborative exchange is important to find one's role in the group hierarchy, to be a good parent and member of the social group: it is necessary to avoid being overbearing, but to interact and communicate. The concept of limit is very important for the Solar pet; puppies that grow up without the lessons given by parents and siblings may have no limit when it comes to playing and attacking.

In cats with Solar Dominant, it is important to keep neuroticism and dominance under control, lowering the levels of aggressiveness and impulsiveness: in the character balance, the Solar cat falls into the psychological type of "human cat" (happy to share home and personal space).

Dogs with Solar Dominant include psychological types characterised by: liveliness (interested in the objects that are brought to their attention, maintaining focus and performance), sociability (ability to integrate into human society and interact with others in general), courage and fortitude (physical/ psychological ability to put up with unpleasant external stimuli and positive reaction/adaptability to more negative situations, however controlling irritability and anxiety), temperament (responsiveness to external stimuli in a range from apathetic, to attentive, to quick, to hyperactive), with remarkable leadership skills, as the Sun is, not without reason, at the centre of the solar system.

Parts of the body to pay attention to: heart, sight, brain, nervous system.

Meanings associated with the Sun in the animal world: the father, the pack leader, authority/charisma, leadership.

The myth : the Solar type is connected to the Sun god, Apollo (god of light, health and prophecy), synonymous with fatherhood and education (the pack leader in animal symbology): therefore, it is naturally inclined to take the initiative, to lead the group, to have a high hierarchical status.

THE SOLAR IN RELATIONSHIPS

For the Solar pet, emotional bonds and physical relationships are very important. Dogs can become very deeply attached to a single human being in particular, to whom they will always be devoted and faithful (just like the Venusian and the Plutonian/Martian, but with more consistent and less contradictory intensity than the latter). The Solar is passionate and energetic: the dog, for example, could show attitudes of social dominance in relationships (assertiveness) - tail held upright, tail wagging with high tail, erect posture, pricked ears, its paw/muzzle placed on the back of a conspecific, nibbling on the other’s muzzle.

Balanced interactions - within the interspecific (different species) and intraspecific (same species) relationships - are fundamental for the Solar pet. When it begins to share its life with a human family, the Solar animal, already from an early age, proves to be nice, cheerful, sociable, but it also needs to learn to control its instinctual possessiveness of dominance.

The task of the human parental figure with this Dominant is more than ever to play the role of an adult dog with a confident/strong character that lets the puppy lick it, jump on it, nibble it, but that is also ready to growl to make it understand the sense of limit, starting from its conspecifics, the border of acceptance respecting others, in order to learn how to resolve conflicts and be accepted (Marc Bekoff).

Care and attention are basically the key to success in the training and relationships of the animal with Solar Dominant: strengthening positive behaviours, pampering and rewarding the pet, trying not to pay attention to wrong behaviours, but suggesting correct ones as an alternative that is reinforced by play, food, fun. The Solar animal bonds with its human of reference faithfully and respectfully, to protect them. The consistency and perseverance of the human owner encourage the development of an intelligent, loving, outgoing subject, which can adapt to considerable environments and tests, because it is a natural leader.

THE SOLAR AND THE OTHER PLANETARY DOMINANT TYPES

The Solar is complementary to the Lunar with which there can be a good emotional connection as long as the Lunar remains in its role of deference (respectful of the Solar sovereignty). The relationship with the Martian is positive, but the latter must not show social dominance or excessive aggressiveness, which would stir the Solar’s competitiveness. With the Uranian tension is generated: excessive quickness, overly energetic action at all costs put pressure on the Solar and must be properly controlled/integrated. The relationship with the Mercurian is stimulating: play and fun. The Saturnian , with its coldness and inflexibility, may stir competitive responses based on aggressiveness. The relationship with the Neptunian is ambivalent: at times playful, at times considered by the Sun to be boring or hard to understand. Excellent understanding with the Venusians , which can be satellite partners and loving subjects for the Solar. The relationship with the Jupiterians is explosive, based on discovery, adventure and passion. Intense relationships with the Plutonians : for better or for worse, the outcomes are unpredictable, with fights for dominance and conflicts that can be ruthless (rituals of aggressiveness between males), but also respect and distance if the relationship does not get heated.
