The pronunciation guide uses the ARPABET phonetic system—the same system used in speech recognition and text-to-speech applications.

Vowel Examples:
AE1 = cat, bat
EH1 = bed, head
IY1 = see, me
OW1 = go, boat
UW1 = boot, do
Stress Numbers:
0 = no stress (unstressed)
1 = primary stress (loud)
2 = secondary stress (medium)
Example:
AH0 TH IY1 N AH0
= a-THEE-na (Athena)

The stressed syllable (marked with 1) is pronounced louder and clearer than others.

Quick Definition

Signs or planets enclosed within houses without cusp contact, indicating hidden or delayed expressions. In poetry, interceptions evoke concealed potentials or trapped fates.

Detailed Definition
Intercepted signs, in unequal house systems, suggest internalized energies. Poets intercept in confined metaphors like Dickinson's dashes. Literature hides depths, symbolizing repression. Their enclosed space poeticizes latency, where interceptions hold secrets, mirroring unspoken traumas and the eventual release of bound stellar forces.
Example
Example in poetry:
In intercepted signs, as in house poetry by Linda Gregg: "Intercepted Aquarius hides the rebel's quiet storm."; Modern astrologer Anne Waldman intercepts: "Intercepted house conceals the guru's secret chant."; Chaucer's tales intercept fates: "Intercepted Scorpio stings the pilgrim's hidden path."; In Rilke's inner rooms, intercepted: "Intercepted light filters through the elegy's barred door."; Claudia Rankine intercepts race: "Intercepted stories echo in the chart's silent cusp."
Additional Notes
Intercepted signs delay expression, like trapped potential. Poetry intercepts hidden depths—context: unequal houses; symbolizes concealed energies.
