Wemyss attributes the rulership of Pisces to the asteroids; probably fragments of what once
was or was intended to be a planet between the Earth and Mars. Thereby he explains the lack
of a consciousness of Destiny which is an outstanding feature of the Pisces nature.

Most authorities attribute to an Essential Dignity the force of a harmonious aspect, and to a
Debility that of an inharmonious aspect.

Some authorities speak of congeniality of planet in element as a species of Dignity; Moon

and Neptune in the Water Signs; Sun and Mars in the Fire Signs; Mercury and Venus in the
Air Signs; and Jupiter and Saturn in the Earth Signs.

The basis on which these Exaltations were assigned is lost in antiquity. Certain
correspondences are worthy of notice, as bearing on their selection. The Sun as giver of life,
finds an important function in Aries, which rules the head@he scat of the mind. The
changeable nature of the Moon is stabilized by the fixity of Taurus - the provider of the home.
Venus finds its most ready servitor in the philanthropic Pisces. Mars is stabilized and
harnessed in Saturn-ruled Capricorn. Saturn finds a noble outlet in Libra - the purveyor of
justice. Jupiter in Cancer, representing the home, is there sublimated into devotion. This
supposed dignity seems to have had its origin with the Arabians. Almansor, in his aphorisms,
says "Saturn and the Sun have their exaltations opposite, because one loves darkness and the
other light; Jupiter and Mars are opposite, because one is a lover of justice and the other of
misrule; and Mercury and Venus have opposite places, because one loves learning and
science, and the other sensual pleasures - which are mutual enemies to each other."

It can be noted that harmonious aspects join the signs of Rulership and Exaltation, as follows:

Planet....Ruler......................Exaltation
Sun.......Leo...........trines.......Aries
