Decanates
The
30 degrees alloted for each zodiac house can be divided into three
groups of ten degrees each as 0 to 9 deg, 10 to 19 deg and 20 to
29 deg. These divisions are termed as Decanates. The first ten degrees
are called as the First Decanate, the second ten as the second Decanate
and the third ten degrees are the Third Decanate.
The
first decanate of any sign corresponds to to the sign being studied
so that the first deanate of Aries will relate to Aries. The second
Decanate of any sign takes on the characteristics of the next sign
in the same element and hence the second decanate for Aries is Leo.
The third decanate of any sign is the last sequential sign within
the same element and so for Aries it would be Sagittarius.
Each
decanate in a sign gets the traits or qualities of the sign ruling
it. The first decanate is tHE strongest and it corresponds to the
double strength of the sign. A person born during the second and
third decanate will be less typical of the sign udner consideration.
The
decanates are said to have psychological and physical significances
and are related to the mind, body and soul.

to 9 degrees- This decanate corresponds to the physical
side and relates to the body. When a person has many planets in
these degrees they would be practical, materialistic and sensible.
These degrees are very powerful. The 0 deg represents the beginnings
and the 9th degree represents the endings and the physical aspects.
10
to 19 degrees- This decanate corresponds to the mental
or the Mind side. Those with more planets in this decanate are said
to be intelligent and concentrate more on mind activities. They

Degree 10 represents new pursuits and degree 19 represents the peak
of mental activity.
