  • Modern and arbitrary assignments.


Some authorities give Virgo as the Exaltation of Mercury - as well as the Sign of its


rulership; hence also Pisces as the Sign of its Fall. Others give Virgo as the Exaltation of
Mars, and Capricorn as the Exaltation of Jupiter.


A planet that is unfavorably aspected is sometimes loosely characterize as debilitated; also
any Sign dessimilar in its nature to the Sign it rules - as Saturn in Pisces. Properly speaking, a
planet is said to be in its Dignity solely by virtue of position, in distinction to any strength
conferred by a supporting aspect.


The same table arranged in the order of the Signs follows:


SIGNS........RULER.................DETRIMENT..........
EXALTATION.........FALL
