Signatures
In a given natal chart there are signatures based on the
primary significators. The Lord of the Ascendant, the
Almutem Figuris, and the final dispositor give a focus to
the house and sign placements and are rounded out by aspects
and the inclusion of fixed stars. These can give very
different signatures for superficially similar placements.
For example, the signature of sorcerer has superficial, or
as the traditional astrologers would say - accidental,
similarities to those of murderers and their victims and
with those of psychics and researchers. This is shown by an
8th house emphasis which is then clarified by the placement
of the Lord of that house and the dignities and fixed stars.
Depending on the focus of the significators, placements in
the 8th house could show any of these and a few other
possibilities. This might perhaps furnish a clue as to why
psychopaths and sorcerers are sometimes mistaken for one
another and why frauds and mystics are sometimes confused
with one another.

Signatures for appearance and condition of the body -
coloring, moles, scars, build, etc - are shown by factors
associated with the ascendant. These too have additional
implications, so, while you can't quite judge a book by its
cover, you can get a good idea by reading the back of the
jacket.
This idea extends to mundane signatures of places based on
the idea that the nature of a place is reflected in the
corresponding signs of it's apparent nature. For example, in
a place that has interest in religion, horses, and education
we might expect some correspondence with Sagittarius and to
find that it is sensitive to transits of that sign. Mountain
chains often have a resonance with Leo as for example the
Carpathians, but mountainous areas such as Greece are more
often Capricorn. There are other considerations but this is
a flavor of the notion.
Similarly in horary astrology where we attempt to answer
questions, we use the signatures of things. Depending on
context, if the inquiry is about a woman, a piece of
jewelry, or a purse; Venus would be the natural ruler. If we
are considering a location in a house, Mars would suggest a
place in or near the furnace or fireplace or where sharp
tools are kept. This is again somewhat superficial, but it
gives a flavor.
Signatures are based on the notion of correspondence theory
and the doctrine of similarity.
