The Seven Traditional Planets
The core significations of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn in the Hellenistic framework.
Stelliums centers the seven traditional visible planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Their meanings are judged through placement, rulership, sect, and configurations rather than reduced to personality adjectives.
- Sun — authority, visibility, vitality, honor, leadership, and directed purpose.
- Moon — body, nourishment, daily circumstance, change, reception, movement, and responsiveness.
- Mercury — speech, writing, calculation, learning, trade, craft, interpretation, and mediation.
- Venus — union, affection, pleasure, beauty, art, agreement, fertility, and social ease.
- Mars — heat, severing, conflict, courage, competition, urgency, injury, and forceful action.
- Jupiter — growth, justice, counsel, faith, prosperity, generosity, protection, and legitimate authority.
- Saturn — constraint, delay, scarcity, labor, age, boundaries, solitude, endurance, and consolidation.
A planet is never read alone
A planet in a sign tells you something different from a planet in a house. Its sign describes condition and mode; its Whole Sign house shows where its topics operate; its rulership shows which other houses it carries; its configurations describe planetary testimony.

Stelliums separates cited historical or scholarly material, computational rules, and interpretation. A published article does not silently change calculation logic; engine and rules changes remain independently versioned.
