is approximately 45 kilometers in diameter and has an orbital period of 5.6 years. Its
name, the personification of mercy (clemency), is derived from the Latin clementia.

CLIMACTERICCONJUNCTION
A climacteric conjunction is a conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. As the slowest-
moving planets known to the ancients, the periodic (every 20 years) conjunction of
these two celestial bodies was regarded as especially significant.
CLIO
Clio, asteroid 84 (the 84th asteroid to be discovered, in 1850), is approximately 88
kilometers in diameter and has an orbital period of 3.6 years. It was named after the
muse of history. Clio’s location by sign and house shows where one tends to keep alive
memories—or even a written record—of the past. When prominent in a mental house
(third or ninth) or in a close aspect with Mercury (planet of the mind), Clio may
show a native who is always bringing the past to bear on the present. When promi-
nent and afflicted, Clio may show someone who tends to live in the past or who is
somehow stuck in the past.
