Asbolus
Asbolus, a dark centaur named for a seer, discovered in 1995, is read in modern astrology as the centaur of instinct, the reading of signs and omens, gut survival-knowing, and the inner warning system that senses danger or guidance before the mind catches up. Read Asbolus by its sign, house, and aspects to find where this principle works in the chart.
Lean in — Work consciously with Asbolus's theme of intuition and survival instinct where it falls.
Watch for — Dismiss Asbolus as too obscure; its theme acts whether or not you name it.
