Resolution after long-running strain or concern
This family is read through a problem that first becomes more visible and then becomes easier to address. Brady reads Jupiter on the New Moon/Mars midpoint and Neptune on New Moon/Saturn as a long strain coming into view before a workable resolution becomes possible.

Brady uses these planetary relationships in the family's birth chart to develop its theme.
Jupiter is on the midpoint of the New Moon/Mars, and Neptune is on the New Moon/Saturn midpoint.
Jupiter = New Moon/Mars
Neptune = New Moon/Saturn
