- Hi Lennie,
-
- The Jones must be Marc Edmund Jones. According to Sakoian and Caulfield,
- in Astrological Patterns, a bucket pattern is as follows:
-
- "In this pattern all the planets but one are in one half of the chart.
- The single planet plays an important part in this patterning. The Bowl
- part retains the same meaning as the Bowl chart -- that is, individuals
- feel they have something to contribute to others."
-
- "The handle planet acts as a focusing agent and indicates the way
- individuals will offer their contribution. The position of the
- handle is important in this pattern. If the handle is located
- before the midpoint of the opposition, these individuals have a
- cautious, self-conscious approach to life. If the handle is
- exactly on the midpoint of the opposition, these individuals can be
- overbearing and at times cruel in their expression. If the
- handle planet is located past the midpoint of the opposition,
- these individuals can respond in a rash, impulsive manner."
-
- "The handle indicates that the individual is caught up in some kind
- of expression that must have an outlet. This outpouring is so intense
- at times that these individuals fail to have the proper concern for
- themselves, their resources, or the effect that their actions may
- have on others."
-
- "At best, this Bucket Pattern indicates the teacher or person who
- inspires and directs others. At its worst, this pattern can
- produce an individual with aggravating propensities. In all cases
- these individuals live life with a great deal of zest."
-
- "Occasionally a Bucket Pattern is found with a handle containing
- two planets. For the handle to be valid the planets in conjunction
- should be within one degree orb. In this type of Bucket handle,
- the individual alternates between two expressions based on the
- principles involved in this type of conjunction. Alternating
- expression is activated by the transiting planets."
-
- The example they show has all planets but the Moon between 16 Scorpio
- and 18 Taurus -- all in one half of the chart. The Moon is at 26 Sag,
- and forms the "handle." The planets spread throughout one half of
- the chart are the bucket itself. To form a bucket, the planets
- must be bracketed by two planets in opposition. Their midpoint
- is what these authors are calling the "midpoint of the opposition."
