The querent’s lawn‑mower had been stolen, and she feared the thief might return to take something else.

 

In this chart, the querent is signified by Venus retrograde at 11°29' Scorpio and the Moon at 24°19' Aquarius.  The land-mower is signified by Mercury at 24°34' Libra. Mercury is in conjunction—literally ‘joined together’—with the Sun at 24°09' Libra. So the Sun must signify the thief: the person currently in possession of the lawn‑mower. Since the Sun and Venus are in adjacent signs, no aspect can form between them. Likewise, there is no forthcoming aspect from Mercury to either Venus or the Moon. No aspect means no contact, so the querent can be assured that the thief will not return.

​

​And so it proved: almost four years later, when I contacted the client to request permission to use this chart on my website, she confirmed that the thief never returned.
