A Search for the Asteroid of Home Improvement: Boring...or is it? (Astrohack triggers)
Channel: AK1

Note: This video is only useful if you want to watch how I locate a trigger asteroid for an astrohack cluster--an obvious indicator that you are definitely using a specific cluster in a chart. When you use a known trigger, all the asteroids near it are expressed with it. We use this in order to amplify the nearby asteroids we want--the expression of which in our lives may be otherwise harder to detect.

In order to determine the best way to trigger a new prosperity cluster in my chart--Capricorn.Scorpio (Cap-8, "influence in a system") I initially chase the asteroid of "fixing my house." Since you find triggers by thinking of separate situations which correlate strongly with the use of the thing you want to hack, and my feelings about influence in a system and home improvement tended to go together,  I thought a definite asteroid of home improvement might make a clear mental anchor for me to know when I'm using the desired cluster.

But I was wrong. Maybe there is such an asteroid, but in this video I fail to find it. Instead, a duodecanate itself, Capricorn-9, seems to approximate home improvement. Although close, this is not what I want.

Yet the search is valuable, because the things I do to come to this conclusion are more or less what one does in order to really REALLY learn how to trigger an asteroid group the way I've been doing with Saj-7 and my money cluster prior to this video. With Saj-7 I was hacking money. With Cap-8 I'm hacking influence--both of which are a lot easier to hack when your more immediate Maslow needs are already taken care of. (That is, you may not want to seek these if you don't have shelter, efficacy, belonging, safety, and benefit to others already. Money and influence *will* complicate broken things if you're not ready.)

In the second part of the video, I get back on track with Cap-8, scan for asteroids 1005-2005 for something that may be a more obvious trigger than the "difficult-to-know-when-you're-doing-it" group I already have in my first 1000 (which you can get from my site at electricmonastery.com). In the process I interpret three new asteroids (1287 Lorcia, 1512 Oulu, and 1711 Sandrine) from my as of yet incomplete text-mine research on the second 1000, and discover 1512 Oulu as a good trigger. For the next couple of months (beginning 2/4/2022) I'll be noting when I'm in an Oulu situation--getting into and out of such situations on purpose in order to amplify the Capricorn-8 cluster. Oulu is the kind of asteroid which serves as a really good marker for when you're using a particular location in your chart, and is thus great for astrohacking.

I conclude by talking a little bit about my book Alma Mater: Full Spectrum Astrology V, which tells you all about how to do...a lot of things, including the above and then some.

(Side note 1: I make a comment about finding meaning in the first 1000 asteroids. As long as you're under MPC #10000, they tend to get weaker or less relevant the higher the number. Past 10000, their significance seems to reset--probably based on the rules for numbering according to type and discovery order. For example, there are plenty of asteroids in the 10000s which are stronger than asteroids in the 6000s.)

(Interesting side note 2: At some point I mention that I found an asteroid of suicide pacts, but I am unable to locate it in the video. That asteroid is 1059 Mussorgskia. It's document vector chain (Top 7 [words]:[n/8 x 8000 samples]:[significance]) was {
  suicidal:3:p=.005739
  collaborate:3:p=.008151
  like:3:p=.008312
  invitation:3:p=.013129
  conclusion:3:,p=.013623
  emergency:3:p=.014268
  [adjective/pertainym]:2:p=.002111
}

My note on it was: {Suicidal collaborators liking invitation to conclusion in emergency , related homes in corporations indicating trust accounted for in journals , environments that pull remembrance of visits to execution of entities.}; Related to suicide pacts and groups that go down together; this asteroid seemed very clearly connected to suicide pacts and kamikaze behavior. Its duodecanate is where you are most likely to find groups headed towards a tragic ending and is a strong indication of where you'll need to be circumspect in the path you share with those groups. in the default case, it is highly suggested that you engage such groups for the legacy they are to leave behind, not for their own immediate aims--which they will tend to fail. That is, you are likely to automatically realize the SQUARE to this duodecanate. I'm just now looking up Mussorgsky on Wikipedia. Had never heard of "The Five." As with so many namesakes, the relationship between asteroid and person is fascinating.)
