Relationship Needs in a Natal Chart

Hi Rad and All,

I’m currently watching the EA teachings/further reading the Pluto II book on sexuality and relationship needs. When looking at the natal chart, specifically in regards to understanding and recognizing the client’s/person’s relationship needs, it’ my understanding that we are to begin with the 2nd, 7th, 12th house. This is the natural Yod from Taurus, Libra, and Pisces. Though, JWG does refer to 2nd, 7th, and 12th houses when learning about this dynamic within the natal chart with respect to the placement of Venus, Mars, their aspects in relation to their planetary rulers. I’ve heard multiple references and watched many beautiful teachings about this Yod from my favorite EA Astrologers, though I found myself asking more questions. Thank you in advance.

1) Through the EA lens, the houses have a more significant emphasis than the sign? Meaning, the house trumps the sign in terms of importance? It’s my understanding that the sign conditions how a dynamic is correlating and manifesting in a person’s life. Am I understanding this correctly?

2) When looking at the relationship needs in a natal chart, do we go to the 2nd, 7th, and 12th first? What if Taurus is not in the 2nd, Libra in the 7th, and Pisces not in the 12th? In this case, do we also go to Taurus, Libra, Pisces and synthesize the totality in terms of the relationship paradigm?

3) Are we looking at the sign that rules the 2nd, 7th, 12th house cusp? For example, if someone has Aquarius on the 2nd house cusp, though Pisces is in most of their second house, do we synthesis both or focus on Aquarius?

Perhaps I'm overcomplicating this process, though I understand this dynamic can present itself as complex for some natally.

Thank you…

Sending oceans of love,
