Tuesday, JUNE 14
The Full Moon occurs in the sign of Sagittarius this morning at 7:52 AM EDT when the Moon opposes the Gemini Sun. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and is an emotional period–a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships. The Gemini Sun encourages us to pay more attention to facts and logic, while the Sagittarius Moon persuades us to intuit and think more broadly. Sagittarius symbolizes the quest for meaning and ideas that expand upon the “here and now.” Gemini is comfortable in its immediate environment or neighborhood, while Sagittarius stimulates us to venture beyond it. Neglecting either end of the axis will backfire–we’re best off seeking a balance.
This Full Moon is about communication, attitude, and a sense of adventure. It forms a square to Neptune, and revelations now might lead to a detour from our goals. We should watch for misinformation. However, its harmony with Saturn helps ground us and draws upon our persistence and determination to make improvements.
Mercury’s semi-square to Chiron today points to some hesitation with making decisions. This transit challenges us to communicate with more sensitivity.
The void Moon occurs from 10:59 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Neptune), until the Moon enters Capricorn at 6:15 PM EDT.
A Full Moon occurs when the Sun in Gemini forms an opposition to the Moon in Sagittarius. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon.
We become more fully aware of what has been lacking or missing in our lives, particularly related to learning, adventure, spirited living, communicating, sharing, and commuting.
The Gemini-Sagittarius polarity is a mental axis, where Gemini represents the “lower mind” and Sagittarius represents the “higher mind.” The Gemini Sun encourages us to think logically, while the Sagittarius Moon persuades us to intuit and to think in a broader manner. Sagittarius symbolizes the quest for meaning and ideas that expand upon the “here and now.”
Neglecting either end of the axis will surely backfire on us. Ideally, a balance should be found between the two energies, and this is what the Full Moon invites us to do.
This Full Moon is about communication, attitude, and sense of adventure. Something has been building inside of us, and now is the time when the energy of the cosmos fairly demands that we let it out. Over the next two weeks, we will discover what this means for us. For now, we can’t sit on our feelings. We need to express them.
The lunation illuminates this conflict between logic and intuition/faith. With the Moon full and bright in the sky, symbolic “illumination” occurs in our own lives. However, these new feelings and revelations are emotional ones, as there is a sense of emotions bursting forth into our consciousness. It’s time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems. Of course, we might want to exercise some care while doing so, knowing that what is coming out of us is fresh, unrefined, and not particularly rational as yet.
The following is a chart of this Full Moon with some additional points:
This phase of the Moon occurs at 23 degrees and 25 minutes of Sagittarius, opposite the Sun at 23 degrees and 25 minutes of Gemini, affecting people born with personal planets and points at 19 to 27 degrees of the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) most significantly.
This lunation is complicated as its trine to Saturn is stabilizing and realistic, but its square to Neptune suggests some tension created from impracticality or fuzzy thinking. We should watch for revelations now that lead to a detour from our goals or misinformation. This is a time for opening ourselves up to possibilities but waiting things out.

Let’s look into Pallas Athena on the charts we’re examining.
What is Pallas Athena?
Athena[b] or Athene,[c] often given the epithet Pallas,[d] is an ancient Greek goddess associated with wisdom, handicraft, and warfare[3] who was later syncretized with the Roman goddess Minerva.[4] Athena was regarded as the patron and protectress of various cities across Greece, particularly the city of Athens, from which she most likely received her name.[5] The Parthenon on the Acropolis of Athens is dedicated to her. Her major symbols include owls, olive trees, snakes, and the Gorgoneion. In art, she is generally depicted wearing a helmet and holding a spear.
From her origin as an Aegean palace goddess, Athena was closely associated with the city. She was known as Polias and Poliouchos (both derived from polis, meaning "city-state"), and her temples were usually located atop the fortified acropolis in the central part of the city. The Parthenon on the Athenian Acropolis is dedicated to her, along with numerous other temples and monuments. As the patron of craft and weaving, Athena was known as Ergane. She was also a warrior goddess, and was believed to lead soldiers into battle as Athena Promachos. Her main festival in Athens was the Panathenaia, which was celebrated during the month of Hekatombaion in midsummer and was the most important festival on the Athenian calendar.
In Greek mythology, Athena was believed to have been born from the forehead of her father Zeus. In some versions of the story, Athena has no mother and is born from Zeus' forehead by parthenogenesis. In others, such as Hesiod's Theogony, Zeus swallows his consort Metis, who was pregnant with Athena; in this version, Athena is first born within Zeus and then escapes from his body through his forehead. In the founding myth of Athens, Athena bested Poseidon in a competition over patronage of the city by creating the first olive tree. She was known as Athena Parthenos "Athena the Virgin," but in one archaic Attic myth, the god Hephaestus tried and failed to rape her, resulting in Gaia giving birth to Erichthonius, an important Athenian founding hero. Athena was the patron goddess of heroic endeavor; she was believed to have aided the heroes Perseus, Heracles, Bellerophon, and Jason. Along with Aphrodite and Hera, Athena was one of the three goddesses whose feud resulted in the beginning of the Trojan War.
She plays an active role in the Iliad, in which she assists the Achaeans and, in the Odyssey, she is the divine counselor to Odysseus. In the later writings of the Roman poet Ovid, Athena was said to have competed against the mortal Arachne in a weaving competition, afterward transforming Arachne into the first spider; Ovid also describes how she transformed Medusa into a Gorgon after witnessing her being raped by Poseidon in her temple. Since the Renaissance, Athena has become an international symbol of wisdom, the arts, and classical learning. Western artists and allegorists have often used Athena as a symbol of freedom and democracy.

What is Pallas Athena in astrology?
Asteroid Pallas was the second of the asteroids discovered, coming after asteroid Ceres the mother. Pallas is the maiden, named after Pallas Athena, goddess of wisdom, courage, just warfare, strategy and skill. Modern astrologers have linked her to these things but also creative intelligence, politics, pattern recognition and the relationship between father and daughter. Her father was Zeus. She has all the strength of “Superman” plus all the allure of a good and beautiful woman. She is as “beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, stronger than Hercules, and swifter than Hermes.” [1]
Asteroid Pallas Warrior Queen
Pallas Athena was the goddess of courage and just warfare. She is defensive by nature and will use her creative and strategic intelligence to avoid violence, but when all else fails she will take action, as Medusa knows only too well.
More detail can be found here.

Another take on this topic is here:
The Mythology of Pallas tells us she was born by splitting the head open of her father, Jupiter*! She emerged fully grown and dressed in armor! She was "born ready"!
Pallas is considered the multifaceted goddess of war, wisdom, poetry, artisans, craft-working, and intellect. She is strong-willed and powerful. As Jupiter’s favorite daughter, Pallas was forever loyal to her father, no matter what!
It may seem contradictory for the goddess of art and wisdom to also be a goddess of war, but in this case, it made sense! Her brother Ares (a.k.a. Mars) was also Jupiter's offspring, and famous for being the god of war: yet the term "war" meant two entirely different things to these two very different gods. Ares (Mars) was the god of chaotic battle, bloodlust, ferocity, courage, and violence. On the other hand, Pallas was the goddess of strategy, organized fighting, advanced weaponry, and skilled manipulation on the battlefield.
If Ares/Mars was offense, Pallas was defense. If Ares/Mars represented pure force, Pallas represented controlled strength. The two were not enemies by any means, but the warriors would often choose one or the other to pray and ask for their favor - depending on their position in battle and the style they chose to fight with. It bears noting that Pallas never lost a Battle or War! Her presence on your side assured a big win!
Pallas is the woman in a “Man’s World” - competitive, skilled, and highly intelligent! Pallas is still active in a man's chart - representing his feminine energies to negotiate, and win without someone else having to lose. Pallas can also represent females in your life who demonstrate and teach those attributes for you to learn and incorporate - especially when fighting for the underdog (including yourself)!
In her youth, Pallas accidentally killed her best friend (Athena) during practice of martial arts. Her remorse led her to adopt her friend’s name and keep through her life as a reminder of unintended consequences from letting your passions cloud your judgment. Forever more, she would be referred to as Pallas-Athena!
There are variations on the mythology about whether Athena killed Pallas, or the other way around. There are also variations on whether the proper hyphenated name is Pallas-Athena, or Pallas-Athene. They can all be considered synonymous, with little to no impact on their meaning in your astrology chart.
In an astrology chart, Pallas represents your talents in the arts, wisdom, defense, intuition, justice and artisan endeavors. Pallas shows where you are a master at negotiation and artfully make win-win situations, as well as “offers people can’t refuse”!
The placement of Pallas* in your natal chart often describes your relationship with your father, and how you treat males in general, as a result. Pallas in your chart shows the battles you chose and how you fight them. On her negative or shadow side, Pallas shows how we struggle with conflict, legal battles, injustice. It can also indicate struggles with illnesses due to a weakened immune system.

Here is another take on this subject:
Who Is Pallas In Astrology?
There are various myths about Pallas-Athene. Some consider the asteroid to represent the Titan Pallas, some think it represents the goddess Athena, and still other astrologers believe that the asteroid is a combination of both.
There is much more information on Athena, so most of the qualities of the asteroid Pallas are related to her, rather than the Titan god Pallas. Athena killed Pallas in battle; some believe that she took on some of his qualities, thus the asteroid Pallas represents a mix of both, but is Athenian in nature.
Pallas in astrology is the independent strategist. It represents how we’re able to see patterns, what patterns we recognize, and how we solve puzzles.
I find that Pallas astrology can show so many parts of our intellect. A writer may use Pallas to come up with creative storylines and to piece the story together, while a manager will use Pallas to solve on-the-job problems.
You probably use your Pallas to solve not only job-related problems, but relationship puzzles, day-to-day problems (such as how to organize your closet), and even problems within yourself, like how you feel about a certain situation.
Pallas qualities can be fully conscious, subconscious, or unconscious. We use Pallas to make split second decisions (that we aren’t even aware of), but we also pull from our Pallas sign when we’re making long term decisions, like where to buy a house or how to get a promotion.
Additionally, Pallas can represent the manner in which we respect our opponents. It can even have something to do with how we view the men in our lives, but this isn’t true for every placement, so you’ll have to see if this is true for you.
If you’re someone who takes vengeance, Pallas will show how you do that. For example, someone with Pallas in Aries will get revenge physically, while someone with Pallas in Cancer will get emotional vengeance (maybe through the form of blackmail or guilt).
Pallas will show you how to better solve problems. It will also show what area of your spirituality you need to tap into in order to solve problems more efficiently. Earth signs will solve problems using the senses, fire signs by taking action, air signs through logic and claircognizance, and water signs through psychism and emotions.
In general, Pallas-Athene will give you insight on how you can best strategize, plan, and focus. It can be extremely useful to learn about Pallas astrology for a variety of reasons!
How To Find Pallas In Your Natal Chart:
Pallas probably won’t show up if you download a free chart online because Pallas is an asteroid. Most basic charts won’t take Pallas into account.
My astrology software (I use iPhemeris) does show Pallas; yours may or may not, depending on what software you use.
If you can’t locate Pallas to see what sign and house this asteroid is in on your chart, use this calculator: it’s super accurate!
For reference, this is what the Pallas astrology symbol looks like in your chart:
The Discovery Of Pallas Astrology
The asteroid Pallas was discovered just after Ceres, making it the 2nd asteroid to be discovered in 1802.
Pallas is named after Pallas-Athene, the goddess of wisdom, courage, warfare, strategy, and skill. Pallas is based on a goddess, but as most of us know from mythology, Athena is a strong feminine force to be reckoned with. Although Pallas is technically a feminine asteroid, the manifestation of these qualities is often androgynous in nature.
Pallas-Athene is less aggressive than many other planets, but her wisdom makes her capable of defeating even Mars. Pallas represents the strategy behind warfare rather than the brute strength.
Pallas In The Signs:
I find that your Pallas astrology sign is super important when you’re looking at the chart as a whole.
Because Pallas astrology can be complicated, it might be helpful to first read your Pallas astrology sign (and learn it) before delving into Pallas in the houses, which is below this section.
Pallas In Aries:
If you have Pallas in Aries, you’re adept at solving problems quickly. You’re not very good at pondering an issue for hours; the solution will either come to you or it won’t. Often, the solution might feel pretty random, but you don’t mind trying out different ideas to see what works.
You probably don’t like waiting to solve an issue with Pallas in Aries. Your creativity comes in spurts, so you need to act when you get an idea.
Competition can be the driving force behind your problem-solving abilities. You might feel like your brain gets turned on when you’re facing a competitor.
You’re not afraid to dive in and try the fastest solution. You probably execute your ideas best when you work independently or lead a group (instead of allowing someone else to lead or dictate your actions).
Your intellect and understanding of a situation come through motion. If you feel stuck, get up and move or do something different; you won’t find a solution by simply thinking harder.
The one trouble you may have with Pallas in Aries is lack of follow-through. It’s easy for you to come up with dynamic answers, but much more difficult to see the project through and actually implement the solution.
You might find that it’s easy for you to forget about a problem entirely when you get stuck. Your Pallas astrology wisdom doesn’t extend to planning, which probably isn’t your strong suit (unless your chart has many other planning-friendly aspects).
Pallas in Aries is certainly strong. There is a desire to fight and to win; you’re mentally tough.
Pallas In Taurus:
If you have Pallas in Taurus, you definitely don’t solve problems immediately, but you usually get to the heart of the issue eventually. You need a bit of time to plan and attack a problem, however you won’t stop until it’s solved.
You’re methodical and patient with Pallas in Taurus. Usually, your problem-solving abilities and intelligence are rooted in basic common sense. You recognize patterns over time because they just start to make sense to you.
I think of Pallas in Taurus a bit like a judge. You build on tradition (like a judge rules based on precedence) and are pretty conservative when it comes to how you solve problems. When in doubt, look to the history.
You also use your senses quite a bit to solve problems. Pallas in Taurus is very earthly and grounded; if you’re struggling to solve a problem, try working through the issue using your senses instead of simple logic.
Sometimes, these folks are very good at working with their hands, although this will depend on the rest of the chart.
It’s much easier for Pallas in Taurus people to solve problems when they feel physically safe. These people do need to work on seeing the bigger picture instead of getting stuck in the details.
Pallas In Gemini:
If you have Pallas in Gemini, you definitely have a sharp mind. You may or may not be the smartest person in the room, but you can push at a problem from all sides until you figure out a solution.
Sometimes, those with Pallas in Gemini can be a bit scattered. Again, Pallas in Gemini doesn’t make the most intelligent individual (look to other placements for straight up intellect) but does make the individual sharp and sometimes a bit cunning. These are the people who will go over and over a problem until there’s a clear solution.
With Pallas in Gemini, you’re probably good at multi-tasking. You can easily learn many new things at once. You like to juggle many intellectual and creative problems or you can get bored, or sometimes even depressed.
You may be good at solving problems having to do with words if you have Pallas in Gemini. This can manifest in many ways. Some people with Pallas in Gemini do a ton of research to solve a problem, some write about it until they get it, and others talk it over.
These people can see patterns with words where others cannot, although they may be less gifted in scientific areas.
Opposite viewpoints aren’t a problem to those with Pallas in Gemini. These folks enjoy looking at things from all angles and going over it until they can solve it.
Those with Pallas in Gemini can sometimes turn to drugs or alcohol when bored, although this depends on the other placements as well. It’s important that those with Pallas in Gemini stay mentally stimulated.
If you have Pallas in Gemini, you probably value your creativity and intellect. You might be attracted to these values in others, as well. Being able to speak the truth might be important to you; freedom of speech contributes to your healing process and words are quite important to you.
Depending on the placement, Pallas in Gemini can indicate talent for writing, speaking, reading, poetry, etc.
Pallas In Cancer:
With Pallas in Cancer, you’re good at finding empathetic solutions to problems. You’re very skilled at reading other people’s emotions and understanding emotions in general.
You can easily spot patterns in other people’s relationships due to your emotional intelligence. This may be a natural skill for you or it may have been learned in childhood.
With Pallas in Cancer, you may feel that almost any problem can be solved through looking at the emotions behind the issue. You certainly don’t use straight up logic; it just doesn’t work for you.
You may also solve problems using your intuition with Pallas in Cancer. When you have a hunch about something, you’re often correct, and acting on your gut feeling yields results.
Those with Pallas in Cancer are emotionally intelligent and understand empathy, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that they possess it. At its worst, this placement can be a bit manipulative, but at its best, the individual is full of empathy and emotional intelligence.
These folks are able to make others feel important or discarded with ease because of how they intuitively understand human reactions and emotions. They are, at their best, observant and responsive of the most basic human needs.
Pallas In Leo:
Pallas in Leo is a really useful placement to have! If you have Pallas in Leo, your intelligence lies in your ability to read other people and respond using your own charisma.
You might be good at making other people laugh or at entertaining. Alternatively, you can easily read what other people want and give it to them without seeming obvious.
Sometimes, these individuals are instead artistically intelligent or into some form of artistic expression.
Pallas in Leo gives you the drive to learn, most likely to manage yourself socially, but it isn’t a naturally intelligence placement.
It might be hard for you to see patterns objectively and view a situation logically outside your own lens. You are, however, very gifted at solving problems using your charisma. You can spin a situation in a way that makes sense for you.
Self-expression, art, creativity, or romance may be very important to you with this placement.
Pallas In Virgo:
If you have Pallas in Virgo, you’re very analytical and practical. You’re great at breaking things down and creating order out of chaos. You analyze a problem, create a solution, and then implement the solution one step at a time until the issue is resolved.
You’re also very good at putting a protocol in place so that the issue doesn’t occur again. With Pallas in Virgo, you can quickly separate the good stuff from the bad stuff and can quickly perceive patterns.
Your Pallas in Virgo placement helps you to bring peace to the work place. You generally run a tight ship, if you’re able to see the bigger picture. One flaw is that you may get too stuck in the details, making it difficult for you to be a leader.
Some individuals with Pallas in Virgo are very successful leaders if they have other placements that allow them to see the big picture. Others are more successful as the right-hand of the boss. These folks are good at seeing the positive qualities in others and putting people in the right positions in the workplace.
Pallas in Virgo individuals can excel in a variety of areas. Some of those folks enjoy manual work or craftsmanship due to their meticulous natures, while others are good at managing mental projects or putting new structures into place. Others still excel in the healing arts because they easily can pick out areas of weakness.
At their worst, those with Pallas in Virgo can be a bit judgmental about how things are done. They often feel that there is a right way and a wrong way to solve a problem, and they are critical of those who solve it “incorrectly.”
If you have Pallas in Virgo, you’re great at recognizing patterns and picking out information. You’re sure to excel if you can choose an area of work where these skills are utilized.
Pallas In Libra:
Pallas in Libra is an especially interesting placement. If you have Pallas in Libra, you seek intellectual balance. You always have to look at both sides of the coin and can’t make a decision without first examining the possible outcomes.
I find that those with Pallas in Libra generally solve problems by deciding what’s fair. Even though they’re good at reading emotions, they won’t involve their own emotions too much in the decision making process.
With Pallas in Libra, you may be willing to repress your needs for the needs of the group. You understand harmony. You can easily perceive social patterns and use them to your advantage intellectually.
When Pallas in Libra is well-aspected, you have a well-balanced mind, but if you see a lot of negative aspects, you may have difficulty finding intellectual balance and problem-solving.
Sometimes, people with Pallas in Libra have a talent for art. They are able to intellectually understand how artwork can be harmonious. These people may be creative in other related fields as well, although much of this will depend on the house placement.
Pallas In Scorpio:
With Pallas in Scorpio, you can see through “smoke and mirrors” to get to the root of any problem. You’re good at solving rather mysterious problems that don’t seem to have a logical explanation.
You are adept at figuring out secrets and obscure patterns. Pallas in Scorpio is certainly the classic mystery detective.
With Pallas in Scorpio, you fixate on a problem with your whole being. The answer to your problems often lies deep within. To solve a problem, it can often help you to retreat until the answer comes to you. It’s almost as if the solutions come straight from the Universe.
Your intelligence is less than logical, but you’re still right quite often. You’re nearly unbeatable when you set your mind to figuring out a problem.
Those with Pallas in Scorpio can easily read between the lines to find the hidden truth. They can get to the core of the matter very quickly. Sometimes, these folks are born healers because they heal the issue itself, not just the symptoms.
In other cases, these folks solve mysteries, are involved in the occult, or simply use their intuition in another manner. They can have a talent for managing finances as well, although this is not a rule and will depend on the combination of other placements.
It can be really difficult to hide anything from someone who has Pallas in Scorpio. They can almost always spot the truth, even when dealing with someone who is a skilled liar.
In retrograde, Pallas in Scorpio is especially stunted compared to other Pallas astrology signs. Their gut instincts may be blocked or they may feel that they can simply never know the truth. Alternatively, they feel that they lack typical logical intelligence but cannot figure out how to make up for this.
Pallas In Sagittarius:
If you have Pallas in Sagittarius, you seek wisdom through philosophy. Even if something makes logical sense, you can’t understand it if it doesn’t feel right to you.
You like to look at the big picture. Your intellect and problem solving abilities are tied up in philosophy, spirituality, or religion. You simply can’t separate the arts from the science.
With Pallas in Sagittarius, you look at the big picture and ignore the small details. You will step up to the plate to solve a problem no matter how large it is. You often have a strong moral compass, which comes from whatever philosophy you base your morals on.
You might enjoy doing research to solve your problems, although you generally look to advice that feels right rather than logical.
Those with Pallas in Sagittarius almost always try to share their wisdom when they have it. They want to shout what they have learned from the rooftops, whether the advice is desired or not.
Pallas In Capricorn:
If you have Pallas in Capricorn, you’re good at following the rules and creating a plan. You believe in law and order, especially in the area (the house) where your Pallas astrology sign sits, and you’re able to work best in a structured environment.
With Pallas in Capricorn, you prefer to work on practical, material problems that you can solve completely. You often understand things better when you can see them physically and you’re good at using your senses to solve issues.
Regardless of the house, you will need a structured mental perception in order to solve a problem. You also need lots of time to adequately plan and then conquer, but you’re good at seeing things through.
If you have Pallas in Capricorn and find yourself stuck, you will discover wisdom in the past. Go through history, philosophy, law, science, etc. and find what has worked before then build on it.
Pallas In Aquarius:
Pallas in Aquarius is an especially interesting placement. With Pallas in Aquarius, your mind is extremely different.
You solve problems in unusual ways; your intelligence isn’t linear, but you can often come up with the right answer out of the blue.
With Pallas in Aquarius, you’re typically logical and unique. These placements can come off as a little genius or crazy. You find intelligent, weird solutions that other people just can’t follow.
There can be a lot of social pressure surrounding Pallas in Aquarius. If you feel too different or weird, especially in school or while growing up, you may start avoiding “intelligence” altogether. Your methods are certainly not normal.
I find that half of the time, these placements are fascinated by science and technology, at least on some level. The other half of Pallas in Aquarius individuals avoid anything that remind them of intelligence.
Occasionally, Pallas in Aquarius individuals can see into the future. They might use psychic gifts or futuristic energy to solve problems.
Pallas In Pisces:
If you have Pallas in Pisces, your intellect is tied to your emotion. Sometimes, this also means that the way you reason out a problem is bound to your emotional scars. Your past has a larger emotional impact on you than most.
You have the tendency to dream rather than do. With Pallas in Pisces, you may find that you solve problems in a way that appeases others, or alternatively in a manner that makes you feel better emotionally.
There isn’t much logic involved in your problem-solving. The solution needs to feel good in some way, whether you feel satisfied for the sake of others or for yourself.
To solve deeper problems, work on peering into the unconscious self. When you solve an issue using your outer emotional reactions, you will often be wrong, but you also have a strong unconscious self which is almost always right.
Pallas in Pisces has the ability to heal with empathy and love, but it can also cause the individual to become unfocused, scattered, and sometimes even selfish. Work on your understanding and empathy and recognize that you must harness your emotions to work with Pallas in Pisces rather than stuff them down.
Pallas In The Houses:
Although I find that Pallas astrology in the signs is far more impactful than Pallas in the houses, it is still important to put both together. I recommend reading the description for your Pallas astrology sign first, then flavoring that description using the qualities of the house.
Pallas in the 1st House
If you have Pallas in the 1st house, you may find that the qualities of Pallas are integral to who you are and how you appear.
You approach the world using strategic thinking. Look to the sign that your Pallas is in and see how it shows up in your outer personality. With Pallas in the 1st house, you really can’t hide these qualities from the world.
In females, Pallas in the 1st house can sometimes indicate an androgynous appearance or a distaste for gendered clothing, although this will depend on what other planets appear in the first house as well as the sign that Pallas in the 1st house is in.
Pallas in the 2nd House
Pallas in the 2nd house is all about values and resources. If you have Pallas in the 2nd house, you probably have an ability to organize and arrange what you value (regardless of what that might be).
For example, you might be able to recognize financial trends and use this to your advantage (if you value money), or you might instead reject money and live a strictly non-material existence, but the things that you do own will be perfectly organized and have a logical use.
Of course, Pallas in the 2nd house will depend quite a lot on the Pallas astrology sign that this asteroid is in.
For example, with Pallas in Cancer, you’re good at reading other people’s emotions. You probably know how to organize and play on these emotions in order to achieve a material gain or to maintain a level of emotional security in a relationship.
With Pallas in Capricorn (the exact opposite of Cancer), you’re bound to be much more financially-inclined. You might be very good at making money or organizing your finances, or you might instead be good at organizing a business and hiring the right managers to grow profits.
Regardless of the sign your Pallas in the 2nd house sits in, you may benefit from visualization to help you strengthen your innate wisdom. There is great potential for manifestation with Pallas in the 2nd house,
Pallas in the 3rd House
If you have Pallas in the 3rd house, you probably have more success solving problems that are day-to-day concerns instead of big picture matters.
I find that Pallas in the 3rd house often indicates brilliance in some way (look to the Pallas astrology sign to see how), but it can also indicate that you have trouble fitting in with your surroundings and with people your own age in childhood.

Pallas in the 7th House
If you have Pallas in the 7th house, you might not embody a lot of the qualities of your own Pallas sign. Instead, you look for a partner who has a lot of Pallas qualities, especially in your Pallas astrology sign.
Your potential partners may be very good at solving problems, spotting patterns, and using their wit in general. Pallas in the 7th house usually means you’ll need an intelligent partner, but look to your Pallas astrology sign to see how that intelligence will manifest.

Pallas in the 8th house can sometimes mean that your sexuality isn’t often expressed, especially when young.
Pallas in the 9th House
With Pallas in the 9th house, you’re better at solving larger-scale problems than working on day-to-day matters. I find that people with Pallas in the 9th house solve problems by using either their education or their philosophy.
If you’re the first type, you solve problems using things that you’ve learned. Sometimes, this might be from a formal education (such as university), but it could also be through self-education. This is an excellent placement for a college professor, however you can be educated in any field and use your knowledge accordingly.
If you’re the second type, you solve problems using your world-view and your philosophy. You try to figure out “what it all means” in the greater complex and solve a problem in a way that feels right.
I find that Pallas in the 9th house folks are often involved in philosophical, religious, legal, or political careers. Even if they’re not, they probably have strong opinions about these areas.

Sometimes, the 10th house can also mean that one of your parents (typically the father but sometimes just the stronger, more forceful parent) taught you the qualities of your Pallas sign.
Pallas in the 11th House
With Pallas in the 11th house, your problem solving abilities are enhanced when you’re surrounded by other people. You need to push against the ideas and beliefs of others in order to figure out what’s true for you.
Sometimes, Pallas in the 11th house can mean that you attract friends who are rather low vibration in order for you to figure out what you truly believe. Other times, it can mean that you solve problems best in a group, using the “two heads are better than one” mentality. You might need to talk about a problem to other people before you have a solution.
Alternatively, your creativity might manifest in social causes. You may feel very passionate about solving the problems of the world rather than your own, and you probably have a lot of ideas about how to make the world a better place (with the strategic though processes to back these ideas up).
Lastly, I find that sometimes people with Pallas in the 11th house solve problems best by communication with spirit guides and angels, or any type of high-vibrational group that is “beyond the veil.”
Pallas in the 12th House
If you have Pallas in the 12th house, you either suppress your Pallas astrology sign in general or you solve problems through 12th house methods, such as spirituality, psychology, fantasy, and the unconscious mind.
I find that Pallas in the 12th house typically means you won’t have success if you’re trying to solve problems in a straightforward, logical way. Even though it seems like the answer should make sense, it just won’t work out.
Instead, you need to tap into your unconscious mind and the power of the universe. There is always a solution to any problem, but it isn’t something that’s accessible to you through books.
You’re probably very good at recognizing psychological patterns in others as well as energy patterns. You gain wisdom from the unconscious mind. Your intuition and your problem-solving abilities are perfectly linked.
If you don’t see these abilities in yourself, then you’re probably suppressing your Pallas sign and holding back your own problem solving abilities. Work with energy and the unconscious mind to un-tap even more power.
Pallas Astrology: Pallas Retrograde
Pallas retrograde often comes from a past life experience with Pallas-like qualities. I find that most people with Pallas retrograde rushed into things before solving problems in an appropriate manner in a past life, so they now work to correct these issues.
Typically, individuals with Pallas retrograde work much harder than others on Pallas-like qualities. They will work to develop patience, to strategize, and to plan before moving. Sometimes, these people have an innate thirst for knowledge (especially in the areas of their Pallas astrology sign and/or house) instead of just naturally possessing the knowledge they need.
If you have Pallas retrograde, you might run into road-blocks in your life that make you stop and develop the qualities of your Pallas astrology sign. Even though it might feel difficult, this Pallas retrograde is for your highest purpose.
Alternatively, Pallas retrograde can mean that it’s less apparent to others when you’re solving a problem. You might only work through issues internally and seem to come up with a solution out of thin air.
