Essential Dignities and Debilities, with Charles Obert May 10, 2018 In episode 156 astrologer Charles Obert joins the show to talk about the concept of essential dignities and debilities, and how they are used to determine the condition of a planet in an astrological chart. The essential dignities are essentially the ancient equivalent of the modern sign-rulerships, except it represents the original and more elaborate set, which includes multiple rulerships and co-rulerships for each of the signs of the zodiac. During the course of the discussion we review each of the five essential dignities, and talk about their conceptual motivation and interpretive value in astrology. Discussed in depth on The Astrology Podcast with Chris Brennan.
