crimsoncurrent-First and foremost, planets in conjunction with an angle should be
considered, within a maximum orb of around 6ยบ, though extendable
like in any cyclic chart depending whether the natal chart has been
rectified or not. Remember that an imprecise birth time can render this
technique inoperative.
-Consider planets that are in conjunction or opposition with these
angular planets as well as all those that are in square since they can
modify the reading of the angular planets.
-Planets that square the Ascendant or the Midheaven are also
important.
-The consideration of planets in intermediate houses is not valid.
-The luminaries and planets are only effective when they are angular,
especially on the Ascendant or the Midheaven since they are close to
the angles. Their power increases when close to them but without
becoming impregnated with the meaning of the house in question (I,
188
IV, VII o X). The planet transmits and colors the return chart with its
single or combined planetary symbolism.
-The traditional zodiacal rulerships are not operative in these
precessed returns.
-The zodiacal aspects can be ignored (except conjunctions,
oppositions and some squares).
-This type of chart cannot be interpreted like a radix or a tropical
return, the same as occurs with precessed returns.
According to Alexander Marr, this type of return does not directly
indicate events but more of a psychological experience that runs
parallel to the event itself.
In this type of chart, we also find the presence of planets close to the
angles, depending on the positive or negative climate or monthly tone
or on the main events of the month in question. For example, in the
direct Lunar Return before the death of Charles de Gaulle, we find
Neptune in an almost exact conjunction with the MC, which are
angles and return planets. Obviously, if we are talking about positive
events, we will find beneficial planets alone or in combination with
other planets or the luminaries, depending on the event.
