Aquarius decan 3: the decan lords of both systems

Aquarius decan 3 covers 20°00′–29°59′ of Aquarius, the last ten degrees before Pisces. In the Chaldean system each ten-degree slice has a lord called the face, and here it is the Moon.

The Moon as face lord puts feeling into the end of Aquarius, a sign that is otherwise detached. Belonging to a group or a cause meets a personal need, and moods respond to the atmosphere of the groups you are in. Reactions can be unpredictable even to you. Independence and the wish for comfort pull in different directions, so you may ask for space and then miss the company a day later.

A planet here tends to emphasise belonging without losing independence. In practice, you feel at home in a club or a team, cancel the Saturday meeting because you wanted to be alone, and miss it by Sunday.

Aquarius decan 3 covers 20°00′–29°59′ of Aquarius, the last ten degrees before Pisces. In the triplicity system its sub-sign is Libra, and its lord is Venus, the traditional ruler of Libra.

Aquarius coloured by Libra warms the detachment of the sign with courtesy and taste. Fairness is practical: groups are balanced, disagreements are mediated, and friendship has manners. Social ease is high. The cool streak shows only when someone asks for too much closeness too soon. This part of Aquarius is the easiest to like, because it holds its principles in a pleasant way, and the one most likely to be asked to chair a meeting.

A planet here tends to emphasise fair, friendly cooperation. In practice, you chair a meeting fairly, soften a disagreement with a smile, and keep your politeness even when you want to leave.
