I had a reading and it was absolutely mind blowing. Helena was able to tell me exact days that I had something happen in my past. It was very positive and supportive. Thank you Helena. ❤
Definitely bc as I look at astrology particularly solar return charts. My kids my marriage the loves of my life the death of my mom. Its all right there!!! The people who impacted my life the most have very strong astrological aspects and many conjunctuons to my natal planets
I think the only free will we have is how we react to our destined life. Plus it's not bad, most of the things that happens on the positive note are really fun to live through. It does give me an existential crisis though 😂.
Here's something I've been considering lately... Maybe things happen a certain way, because we see these dates in our chart, and then our brain naturally attracts / confirms certain events to be positive, negative etc, which confirms our bias to the chart
If you’re a woman solar charts are amazing at prediction especially child birth!! And for men the progressed chart used with the natal chart is great for predicting major life events. Must know birth times tho to be extra accurate
Wow, I have an "LB" on a date this past September (Level 4 in my Lot of Eros) -- which was the day I had a major, major breakthrough with my spiritual director regarding my mother wound (an internal belief I needed to release)! So very cool, thank you!
So if your major peak is 10th Cancer (my Lot of Fortune is Libra), but your worst planet (Saturn, Night chart) is in Cancer, then every time Cancer comes around it's an unfavorable major peak time?
Wow I found this after looking for the timing of charts such as minor tertiary progressions and tertiary progressions as I understand time to be a spiral and cyclical rather than linear .I and a make friend have many dates the same during February and the whole of 2024.I am riding a wave and I am full of magic and this video finding me this evening is just absolute proof to me of that.Thank you.
Me too. Except I am ♋♋♋♋stellium. Really really rough and tough past few years. I am sick of Pluto and Saturn f#!&ING up my joy potential flow. So I hear you and I can empathize!💫🙏🏼🙌🏻
Woah! My mind is blown!!! My Lot of Spirit is in Gemini 9th house opposite lot of Eros Sagittarius 3rd house. I have 2 LB coming up at the end of this month for these lots in level 4!!! Right before I move to my Mercury MC line. I’m so happy! I have Aquarius 5th house lot of fortune. This is exciting!
Vedic/sidereal astrology also has a similar concept. It is called the Dasha systems but the most commonly used is the vimshottari system. :) I've been trying to get back into learning Hellenistic aswell. Thank you for teaching about this. You're wonderful at explaining complex points! 🩵
@@mshelenawoodsi’m rewatching & trying to understand what you mean when explaining the diagram at 7:45. Isn’t the 1st fortune lot at Sagittarius, while the 7th is in Gemini? Or were the numbers there to symbolise houses?
This in interesting but I’m a bit confused by what you said at 14:58 - you want to apply your Aquarius (for example) LOF to the Lots of Spirit and Eros too? Did anyone else get what this means, please? 14:59
Great explanation and examples. What do you mean by apply the Lot of Fortune to the Lot of Spirit and Lot of Eros charts? Through it's modality? I.e., if lot of fortune is in Mutable, look at Mutable peak periods in the other two charts?TIA.
Yessss!!!! Great info and I’ve basically gone through a similar path in finding this branch of astrology starting with Chris Brennan! Ok that was eerie. I have my lot of fortune in Aquarius/4th house too, I’m a night chart, Capricorn sun libra rising. Venus and Saturn have an influence on me and they seem to keep popping up in my chart over and over again. I just had something happen on the 19th having to do with Sagittarius so this is More reason to delve deeper into this!!
I have a day chart and have both Jupiter and mars in cancer, so exalted and in detriment. Any tips for how I should predict if a time will be positive or more difficult
See you got to the end and confused me. What you mean by you use The Lot of Fortune sign as your spirit and eros? They have their own calculations???? Cannot change it. It's looking at me from the first level
This is a lot. I'm trying to wrap my head around it. I've got an LB level one coming up in 2 weeks. I'm trying to keep something bad from happening. It's been all bad the last 2 weeks...
Hello Helena... How interesting! Poway CA. I spent most of my young life in Poway, CA. That said I have to go through this video several times.. Wow. Thanks
Hi! Confused here at 15:36 what you mean by using the lot of Fortune with the lot of Spirit and Eros! What do we do? You said count…? So count what or from where or when? TYSM!
The lot of fortune sign and modality (fixed, mutable, cardinal) is the important thing. Lot of spirit periods in the same sign or modality as your lot of fortune will be the most important. I did not understand that at first either. So when your lot of spirit or Eros are in the same sign or modality as your lot of fortune, those will be peak periods for you.
Love your content! Quick but important question, does one's Lit of Fortune, Spirit, Eros, change in ones chart based on astrocartography calculations as one moves around the globe? When reading my zodiacal releasing, I don't know whether to follow the reading from the original place of my birth, or to recalculate my chart based on where I'm living currently. This question in my brain, currently has me stumped on how to proceed with my own reading.
I wouldn’t think so because it’s based on your the time you were born. She said in your natal chart. That would be more of a protection chart or progressed year.
What happens if my most benefic and malefic are conjunct on the same sign?(venus-saturn) 🤔 how would those periods on that sign work? It’s kinda confusing
This is mentioned in The Astrology Podcast video about it. There’s a lot more to it but in a nutshell you can often experience big highs and lows around the same time.
Thanks for your explanation. Very helpful video for someone like me who is entirely new to ZR. Very strange "coincidence"? Tomorrow is an LB day for me...
My lb is coming up on Oct 26 2023, it’s level 4. So I am curious now to see what it brings as coincidence would have it I just stumbled upon zodiacal releasing in a comment thread and have thus printed all the charts and started really studying them, and then I came across your blog and that brought me to this video so not much happens by chance especially since I have been stressing on my career lately and have another lb coming up in February 21 2024 and that’s a level 3. So I can’t wait to see what this all brings and unfolds to be.
I have a day chart but I have Jupiter and Mars in the same sign. How do I know if it’s going to be more positive or negative then, does this just mean that it’ll be both positive and negative haha?
Wow! This is amazing! I will definitely contact you soon to do one of those readings. I love all the stuff and I wanna learn more about it so I can do all these things and read into more of it. Great video.
So like... I'm getting it Pisces most positive and Aquarius most negative. It seems I always come out of challenges most positively (lot of spirit) if I'm reading this properly.
What if both your positive and negative planet are located in the same sign? For example My Jupiter and Mars are both in Gemini and I have a day chart. Also my lot of fortune is in Sagittarius so the mutable signs are important periods I guess....How would we interpret that? Thanks in advance for any insights on this issue...
Thank you for this video! I come back to it occasionally to refresh various key points within the subject of ZR. I’m struggling to find information about my specific moment that is happening TODAY. My lot of fortune AND spirit straddle my 21 degree Virgo rising and today is the day I’m having a level 1 change into Capricorn which contains my most benefic and malific planets Venus and Saturn (night chart). And as it’s leaving Sagittarius where my sun/moon/mercury are placed I’m having some anxiety and concern over what’s to come over the next 27 YEAR period. Does Saturn and Venus together in Capricorn = extreme highs/ lows? Do they sort of mute each other? I’m endlessly seeking information on today’s beginning and so far the information you’ve shared here as well as your blog have been a tremendous help and greatly appreciated. I hope the mars interaction you’re currently going through that you mentioned is swift, gentle, and redirected into positive endeavors for you. Take care! 🫶🔭🔬🔭🔬🔭💞
Okay, my Lot of Fortune is in Leo, my Lot of Eros is in Taurus, and my Lot of Spirit is in Sagittarius. Even when I'm looking for my peak periods for the Lot of Eros and Lot of Spirit, I should apply the modality of and the aspects to the Lot of Fortune to them?
That can mean your peak months, years or day when in the sign of your POF/Mars can be full of fire or a lot of moment. It can be good or bad, but there will be a lot of mars like motivation or drive
Whoah, Helena, this is so interesting! I love when you use your chart for examples because I'm also a scorpio rising so we have the same houses, lol, and my lot of fortune is also in the 4th/aquarius. I will definitely be looking into this, but at first glance I definitely balked because I have an LB in my Lot of Eros LITERALLY TODAY. As a single lady now I'm looking around like, okay, when is my meet-cute? 🤣
What if you have no or only one in your entire lifetime? E.g. 1 lot of F in 2025 at age 64 level 2 1 lot of S next Dec level 2 at age 65 and 1 lot of E level 3 at age 80 !!
What if, my lot of fortune is in gemini and my Jupiter is in Cancer? I have a day chart and since gemini is mutable and cancer is fixed, what does that mean?
Sometimes I watch a variety of RUclips videos (different astrologers) with my sun and rising signs to see if anything positive may supposedly be coming my way then I go on about my business. For some reason, none of the positive stuff that is predicted ever seems to come true for me. Ever.
there's SO much more to your chart and your personal transits than a simple rising horoscope video. I highly recommend not watching them and researching your own chart, tracking your transits (I use astro gold software and find it very helpful) because there's a lot more detail in your chart itself than just a general rising 💕 Look at your ZR, your progressions, aspects that transiting planets are making, etc.
I have this, in conjunction. Chris Brennan said on his channel that it gives the best and most challenging events in the same period. Maybe that's for the best.
What if both my positive and negative planets are in the same mutable sign (Sagittarius) which is also a sign of my first major peak period and the sign of all three lots? Am I damned?😂 Will all good come with bad for me?
I'm sorry but your graphic is really confusing. You are showing sag as the first house with lot of fortune but then you are describing your own lot of fortune on 1st house for you?
Yes we agreed to all of this stuff before we incarnated. We have control over our attitude and positive thoughts though. Also we can learn and make changes willingly with love and wisdom or we can go kicking and screaming. Either way that karma is going to get you.
I had a reading and it was absolutely mind blowing. Helena was able to tell me exact days that I had something happen in my past. It was very positive and supportive. Thank you Helena. ❤
Wow thank you so much for sharing Clarissa!! I'm so glad the reading was supportive for you! :) So happy to hear!! Big hugs to you, beautiful!
Here I am after almost a year of a hiatus of study after almost 20, and TODAY is an LB day. Wow.
so cool that your name is Helena and you specialize in Hellenistic astrology :) you were born to do this.
Ancient astrology techniques will most certainly have you questioning the concept of free will.
right??! I went through a whole philosophical crisis after learning about ZR.
So our lives are all planned?
Definitely bc as I look at astrology particularly solar return charts. My kids my marriage the loves of my life the death of my mom. Its all right there!!! The people who impacted my life the most have very strong astrological aspects and many conjunctuons to my natal planets
yes of course! Major life events/relationships are! We choose them before incarnating, when we make Soul Contracts@@miaj5118
I think the only free will we have is how we react to our destined life. Plus it's not bad, most of the things that happens on the positive note are really fun to live through. It does give me an existential crisis though 😂.
Here's something I've been considering lately... Maybe things happen a certain way, because we see these dates in our chart, and then our brain naturally attracts / confirms certain events to be positive, negative etc, which confirms our bias to the chart

oh yeah this reminds me of mahadashas in vedic astrology !!!
Great reading! Thank you!
How do we distinguish between the validity of the peak periods when there’s so many planetary conjunctures to consider over varying time frames?
Hello Helena... How interesting! Poway CA. I spent most of my young life in Poway, CA. That said I have to go through this video several times.. Wow. Thanks
Hi! Confused here at 15:36 what you mean by using the lot of Fortune with the lot of Spirit and Eros! What do we do? You said count…? So count what or from where or when? TYSM!

I still don’t really understand it but what are the level 1, 2, 3, etc.? Could you explain those again?
Lots of good info here. I'm pretty much a newbie so I'll need to re-listen a few more times, pause and replay parts. All super interesting info!

Hey Helena , I love your content so much , i have a question :what to do if your malefic planet is in the sign of your pick time ?Thank you in advance
So I just looked and I have an evening chart with my Venus and Saturn both in Libra. What does that mean?!
Hi! What if your chart isn’t day or night and on the equator
What does it mean if your lot of fortune and lot of spirit are in the same sign?
Also, what does it mean to have no planets influencing your peak period?
I believe you should then move the lot of spirit ahead one sign. Source: astrology podcast episode on ZR.
i loved this thanks!
Does anyone know what it means when you have only a level 1 and no other levels?
You have other levels. You can click on a period to get the 2nd level and do that up to the 4th.
I still don’t understand. My chart is so bad.
Thx
Thank you!
Question! When looking at the releasing chart, why do you use the second/sign/element as the placement before the phases (prep, peak, completion)?
Sometimes I watch a variety of RUclips videos (different astrologers) with my sun and rising signs to see if anything positive may supposedly be coming my way then I go on about my business. For some reason, none of the positive stuff that is predicted ever seems to come true for me. Ever.

For zodiacal releasing do I use my natal or relocated chart as a basis, does anyone know? Please help!
natal
Hi Helena. What happens if you have a day time chart, and Jupiter and Mars are in the same sign? Thanks in advance! Love the info!

I must be dumb. I still can’t get to grips with it😭
why do I have nothing after 2025?
Astro gold has no zodiacal releasing option
yes it does. I use it for every single client reading. Click sheets. Needs to be on desktop.

I'm sorry but your graphic is really confusing. You are showing sag as the first house with lot of fortune but then you are describing your own lot of fortune on 1st house for you?
Agreed, confusing
Looks like my completion period was the worst time of my life based on this.
