In Astrology, while it's not possible to pinpoint the exact location/time of where/when you'll meet your spouse/future partner, you can glean clues about the general area or direction from which your spouse might come from. This is determined by analysing planetary placements, aspects, and house positions in your birth chart, particularly focusing on the 7th house, which represents partnerships and marriage.

Find below the major indicators of Spouse in a Birth Chart:

• The 7th House:

The 7th house is the primary indicator of marriage and partnerships in a Birth chart. The signs and planets within this house, along with the ruler of the 7th house, offer clues about your spouses nature and potential characteristics, including where you might meet him or her.

• Planetary Placements:

Certain planets, like Venus (for men) and Jupiter (for women), are considered significant in matters of love and marriage. Analysing where these planets are placed in your birth chart can provide valuable insights into how and where you might meet your spouse.

• Sign and House Considerations:

The signs and houses where the 7th house ruler and other relevant planets are placed can indicate whether your spouse might be from a nearby area, a different city, or even a different country.

• Transit of Planets:

Significant planetary transits to the 7th house or its lord can indicate periods of new romantic opportunities and relationship growth, potentially suggesting when you might meet your spouse.

Here are some possibilities as to where your partner might come from:

• If Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius happen to be the 7th house: This suggests a strong possibility of meeting your spouse in a nearby city or    village.

• If Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Pisces hold the 7th house: This indicates that your spouse may be from the same city, village, or a very close one.

• If Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn are the 7th house: This suggests that your spouse might be from a distant place.

If you are a female checking on probable Spouse, look out for Jupiter’s placement and if you are a male then replace it with Venus. If you’re attracted to men use Jupiter and if you’re attracted to women use Venus and if you are attracted to both use both.

Also do take a look at the Juno asteroid. And replace Jupiter/Venus with Juno for a more in depth analysis.

Jupiter/Venus in the 1st House:

Your spouse would be doing something very new and that might be relocating to a totally new place or getting a new job. You are likely to meet your partner when you are taking a walk, joining a new job or is going for a cosmetic procedure. Most likely places to find your partner would be at the airport, at a shop/commercial establishment or during a vacation and that meeting would refresh your soul and bring happiness for you.

There’s something undeniably electric about Aries season. The first sign of the zodiac, Aries kicks off the astrological new year with fearless ambition, bold style, and a head-first approach to… well, everything. Ruled by Mars, the planet of action and energy, Aries doesn’t just walk into a room they charge. Whether you're a full-blown Aries or just vibing with the fiery energy of the season, there’s no better time to refresh your look with accessories that match your fearless flair.

1. The Aries Aesthetic: Bold, Bright, and Unapologetic

Aries season (March 21 – April 19) is not the time to blend in. This is the era of red-hot confidence and outfits that speak before you do. Think power colors like scarlet, deep orange, or electric yellow. Texture-wise, Aries loves sharp silhouettes, sporty cuts, and anything that lets them move while still turning heads. If your fashion choices feel like a personal power-up, you're on the right track.

2. What Makes Aries Style Unique?

Every zodiac sign has its own fashion fingerprint, and Aries' is all about impact. Aries style is often sporty, edgy, and a little rebellious. They’re the ones who confidently pair athletic wear with bold accessories and somehow make it high fashion. Whether they’re rocking a sleek moto jacket or bold neon sneakers, Aries style says, “I’m here, and I’m not waiting for permission.”

3. Aries Energy Meets Eye Gear

And then there’s the matter of shades. Yes, sunglasses. Aries might be known for their fiery spirit, but that doesn’t mean they don’t protect their eyes in style, of course. That’s where Aries SZN Sunglasses  come in. Designed with a burst of personality and performance, these shades feel like they were made for the Ram. Whether you're on a spontaneous hike or just strutting through your day like it's your runway, they’ve got that punch of personality Aries thrives on.

4. The Color of Courage

Aries is ruled by fire, and their colors reflect that inner spark. When choosing accessories—like sunglasses, hats, or shoes—look for colors that echo that flame: cherry red, coral, crimson, even gold. Shades with colored lenses or bright frames naturally catch the Aries eye, especially if they dare to go full monochrome with a matching outfit.

5. Aries Loves a Statement (So Make One)

Here’s the truth: Aries isn't shy. Whether it’s oversized shades or uniquely-shaped lenses, if it’s got flair, it’s Aries-approved. Look for glasses that go beyond the basic—think geometric frames, mirrored lenses, or designs with unexpected color combinations. Anything that whispers “main character” (or better yet, shouts it) is fair game.

6. Movement Matters: Sporty Meets Stylish

Aries are movers. Whether it's morning runs, spontaneous road trips, or just living life at a breakneck pace, they need accessories that can keep up. That’s where sporty eyewear shines. Look for lightweight, no-slip frames and polarized lenses that protect while keeping things fashion-forward. Style doesn’t have to sit still, and neither should you.

7. Aries Fashion Icons to Inspire You

Need a little inspo? Aries celebs like Lady Gaga, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Robert Downey Jr. all embody that signature confidence. Gaga mixes performance with fashion in a way that always makes a statement. SJP takes risks on the red carpet (and the street) without second-guessing. And RDJ? That guy makes tinted sunglasses look like a superpower. Aries energy in action.

8. Mixing Fire with Function

Not everything has to be loud to be Aries. Sometimes it's about smart choices—pieces that are as functional as they are fierce. Goodr sunglasses are a great example of this balance. They’re made for real life (read: sweat, adventure, and sun), but they don’t skimp on style. That’s peak Aries—because what’s the point of looking good if you can’t do stuff while wearing it?

Final Thoughts

Aries season is a mood—one filled with bold choices, confident moves, and style that won’t be ignored. It’s about embodying that fire and letting it show in everything from your mindset to your sunglasses. So, if you’re feeling the pull of that Ram energy, lean into it. Try something new. Walk a little taller. And of course, throw on some shades that make you feel unstoppable.

Because this season? You’re not just catching the light—you are the light.

From major conjunctions to the ingress of outer planets into new signs, this decade period signals the breakdown of old systems and the emergence of a new world order.

In astrology, aspects refer to the angular relationship between planets in a birth chart. It plays a crucial role in shaping an individual personality, experiences, destiny, fate and life path. While major aspects like the conjunction, square, and trine are widely studied and used, minor aspects often hold deep spiritual and psychological significance. One such lesser-known but profoundly insightful aspect is the Novile (40°) aspect.

The Novile aspect occurs when two planets are 40 degrees apart, dividing the zodiac into ninths (360° ÷ 9 = 40°). It is part of the novenary series, representing cycles of completion, initiation, and spiritual enlightenment.

A novile is an angle of 40° (1/9 of the 360° ecliptic). An orb of ±1° is allowed. It indicates an energy of perfection and/or idealization.

The novile is a 9th harmonic aspect. It has the vibrational theme of the end of a cycle, and reaping the fruits of one's path. It denotes the completion of things. Seeks to be connected and over service to the larger community, based on one's own progression in self-mastery. Depicting capacity for self- development, joy and purpose.

Mathematical Significance of Novile

•  The number nine (9) in numerology is associated with wisdom, endings, and universal consciousness.

•  The ninth harmonic chart (used in Vedic astrology) emphasizes soul-level lessons and spiritual evolution.

•  The Novile aspect is linked to deep inner fulfilment, creative inspiration, and karmic completion.

Symbolism of the Novile Aspect

The Novile aspect carries a quiet yet profound energy. Unlike the harshness of a square or the ease of a trine, Novile aspects reveal latent spiritual gifts, hidden talents, and inner callings that unfold over time.

Themes of the Novile Aspect include the following:

1.  Spiritual Maturity & Awakening: Planets in Novile teach lessons about acceptance, patience, and inner peace.

2.  Karmic Completion: Often linked to past-life wisdom or resolving deep-seated soul contracts.

3.  Creative Expression: Strongly found in the charts of artists, writers, and visionaries.

4.  Harmony Through Struggle:Brings about a sense of divine timing, where things unfold naturally rather than being forced.

How the Novile Operates in the Natal Chart

The Novile aspect does not create external pressure like a square or opposition. Instead, it works internally, often manifesting as sudden insights, intuitive realizations, or spiritual awakenings.

Interpretations of Planets in Novile aspect

• Sun Novile Moon: A soul that naturally integrates logic and emotion, often developing wisdom with age..

• Mercury Novile Venus: A gift for expressing beauty, poetic speech, or spiritual writing.

• Mars Novile Jupiter: A quiet yet powerful drive toward higher ideals, ethics, and purpose.

• Saturn Novile Neptune: A deep karmic understanding of spiritual discipline and sacrifice.

The Novile in Transits and Progressions

When activated in transits or progressions, the Novile aspect brings unexpected moments of peace,understanding, and destiny alignment. It often marks periods of:

•  Personal epiphanies or enlightenment

•  Completion of a long cycle or life lesson

•  Artistic breakthroughs and creative downloads

Hindu astrologers also say that the 9th harmonic signifies the marriage partner, and can be thought of as the chart of our ideal mate. It makes sense that the person who we would be most attracted to would carry the same energy as our goals. It is found that there is often a very strong resonance between the charts of people we are attracted to and our 9th harmonic.

The Novile Series

Novile (40°) Bi-Novile (80°) Tri-Novile (120°)

• Nature: Spiritual completion

• Relationship: Perfection cycles

• Effect: Spiritual growth phases

• Keywords: Completion, perfection, cycles

The Novile as a Gateway to Higher Consciousness

The Novile is an aspect of spiritual integration and quiet mastery. While it may not create dramatic external shifts, it guides individuals toward inner harmony, artistic brilliance, and karmic fulfilment. If you have strong Novile aspects in your chart, consider them a hidden blessing, a sign that you are meant to cultivate wisdom and share it with the world in a unique way.
