Altair
Imum Coeli Conjunct Altair
At the Imum Coeli the fixed star Altair, the flying Eagle of bold soaring fortune, settles into your roots, home, and ancestry. The private base of your life carries an ambitious, mobile, upward-reaching streak, and family fortunes may rise and fall with some swiftness. Altair colors but does not dictate, so weigh its fleeting, high-flying quality against the steadier signs in your chart.
