Canopus
Descendant Conjunct Canopus
Canopus, the great pilot star, carries the navigator's long voyage and a change for the better, and here it sits on the angle of partnership. The people you meet can act as guides, and key relationships may steer your life onto a better course, often through travel, distance, or hard-won passage. Read Canopus with the whole chart, since one star colors how you relate but does not dictate the journey.
