Just as our lives are nuanced, the condition of each planet in our chart requires the consideration of multiple factors. When a planet has triplicity strength, it is stronger and more capable of bringing about positive significations for the life of an individual. Tangibly, this can show up as community support in relation to the topics the planet is in charge of in your chart.
In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman explain how to determine a planet’s triplicity strength and what that means when interpreting an astrological birth chart.
This episode builds off of material we discuss in our episode about sect. If you are unfamiliar with sect doctrine, we highly recommend you start with our episode “14. A Simple, Potent and Ancient Technique - Sect in Astrology” before digging into this triplicity episode.

When a planet is in fall, it is in the sign opposite of its place of exaltation and can struggle with reputation and visibility. It is in an environment contrary to its essential nature and often can act in ways different than what society expects. This can bring difficulties for someone’s life, but there are also benefits with having a planet that doesn’t express themself the way society expects them to.
In this podcast episode, our good friend Hannah Piper Burns joins Lori Kaufman and Alicia Cielle Heiser again to continue our discussion of essential dignity. We talk about the nuance of having a planet in fall and go through the 7 traditional planets and how they show up in their fallen archetypes.
