Background:
So, envision this shit: I was just about to hit the hay one night, indulging in some delightful ass chocolate I stole from my grandmother. Now, I've got these Invisaligns, and I didn't want them to get all gunked up with chocolate, so I took them out and left them on my bedside table. No biggie, right? Well, the next morning, I couldn't find my fucking Invisaligns anywhere! That's when I decided to turn to astrology for some guidance, using a technique called horary. The chart I cast had Pisces rising and Saturn in the first house, which got my astro-brain brain~ing. Ya see, Pisces represents loss or things that are hidden things, and Saturn is all about teeth. It felt like this chart held the answers I needed, especially since the moon was prominently positioned, adding to this feeling, considering I was under the covers and comfortable as fuck when I casted the chart.
Recovery:
Now, when it comes to finding lost items, we turn to the moon for some reason. It's the cosmic symbol for lost things, according to Lily, ya know? Although I would've thought the 2H, but whatever. In this case, the moon happened to be in Virgo and forming an applying aspect with both the ruler of the 12th house and its own dispositor, meaning it's a good sign for recovery.
How it was lost:
Now, let's talk about how this whole thing happened. In order to find out how something was lost you look at the last aspect made by the chart ruler, which in this case was Jupiter. Turns out, the last aspect Jupiter made was to the moon. This could symbolize that I lost the item due to excessive use or familiarity. It's like my brain decided the location wasn't important anymore because I should just KNOW where it is at this point, off of like muscle memory considering how much I interact with that area. Silly fucking brain! (-:
How far away:
Okay, so technically, this isn't a horary astrology concept in lily's book (I think) and is more of just a me thing, but like both the moon and the ruler of the 2nd house, which represent lost things and my personal possessions, respectively, were making a HELLA tight connection with the chart ruler, which symbolizes myself. Meaning the item must be hella fucking close to where I casted the chart. Like, super-duper close. Turns out, it was practically right under my nose!
Where:
To figure out where the blue fuck those Invisaligns ended up, we need to pay attention to the sign of the moon, its ruler, and whether the moon is occidental or oriental. So, the moon was in Virgo, a human. Suggesting that the misplaced item was somewhere frequented by people, and the ruler of Virgo in this chart happened to be a Venusian Mercury. It hinted at the item being in a place that's part of my usual routine (Virgo), maybe somewhere to the west (occident). However, the fact that the ruler of the 2nd house was in a cadent house suggested that it might be in a spot where I couldn't easily see it.
In what part of the house it is:
When you feel like you have a good idea of where something might be lost, you turn to the 4th house for additional insight. In this case, Gemini was in the 4th house, and I happened to have pens, pencils, Los Angeles Times Memorabilia, and a trusty box of tissues on my bedside table. Gemini's influence suggested it could be any of those items in particular in my table.
Where it was:
Now to answer the Question We've all been asking "where the fuck are these invisaligns???" My Invisaligns were found in the tissue box on my bedside table, in the northwestern corner of where I casted the chart. It all makes sense now, doesn't it? Mercury, which rules tissues, and Venus rules tables, and since the moon was ruled by a Venusian Mercury, it pointed to the tissues on my table as the hiding spot. Mystery solved!
