HOW TO USE THIS REPORT
In the pages which follow, you will see descriptions of your character traits, relationship potentials and challenges, as well as career potentials, and even more.
All or most of these sometimes intimate descriptions will be linked in some way with your past lives and your experiences in the planetary realms between lifetimes (the interlife).
Yet, you may ask, how can this information best be used?
First, HELP YOURSELF. The enclosed uplifting commentary can only be truly beneficial if you see it as a means of self-help and self-transformation. So to get the maximum practical benefit out of each page of this report, focus on connecting what you read with what is going on in your life now.
Next, LOOK FOR PATTERNS. When you see repeated references -- for instance to similar careers, pursuits or vocations -- you should consider these references seriously. They demonstrate a positive karmic connection which you now have with these same career-related potentials from past life endeavors. So, because of prior life success, these areas of expression should be easier for you to find rewarding or to succeed in, as compared with in other areas.
Also, pay close attention to REMEDIAL MEASURES. For instance, you may be given an affirmation to use in meditation (or a prayer). Or you may be given a crystal/gemstone to wear. These means of balancing out challenging vibrations can indeed be very helpful, especially if used in a hopeful manner.
Finally, this report is a synthesis of past life and planetary interlife interpretations originally given clairvoyantly by Edgar Cayce, for individuals with your same planetary patterns at birth. So in applying this report to your personal life, you should RESPECT INNER GUIDANCE -- through dreams, meditation and past life regression for example -- as primary resources for this kind of information; and most important, RESPECT YOUR FREE WILL! You alone must choose and know what is really best for you.
Your birth chart interpretation is based on the positions of the planets at the time of your birth.
Astrologer Ry Redd calculated on computer the astrology charts for hundreds of people who received readings by Edgar Cayce which contained astrologically based information. By studying these astrology charts, Ry Redd determined what planetary influences were most likely responsible for the readings by Edgar Cayce. In many cases the astrological basis of the Cayce readings appears to be very straightforward. From this information Ry Redd was able to develop, in conjunction with the computer programmers at Cosmic Patterns Software, an analysis of your birth chart as Ry Redd believes that Edgar Cayce's psychic readings would have interpreted it. Ry Redd's research effort was exhaustive and was conducted over many years, some of which was spent at the Edgar Cayce library at the Association for Research and Enlightenment headquarters in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Your Past Life Report begins on the following page . . .
Your Sun is in an inharmonious pattern with Jupiter.
Your afterlife experience in the realm of Jupiter brings you a helpfulness in getting along with those in powerful, prominent positions, especially in helping them to develop brotherly love in their actions. You have great abilities in your associations with such individuals in these ennobling directions. As long as you avoid tendencies toward false pride and taking any selfish advantage of your influential role, you should continue to bring harmony into the lives of others whom you contact.
You also have the capacity from Jupiter's experience of keeping balance and remaining tolerant while going through various turmoils about you. These challenges are most likely to have taken the form of antagonisms on a larger scale dealing with groups, organizations and institutions as well as individuals around you. These experiences have probably not been without anxiety for you nor has your judgment always been without exaggeration. However, your patience and capacity to forgive are the basis for your endurance of such animosity and unpredictable behavior on the part of others.
Your mental trends and self-expression will be in very definite, ambitious directions this lifetime. One result of your drive to make yourself felt is that you will be heard of from both far and near as a powerful soul with considerable broadness of vision. This drive can be a constructive expansion beneficial to others -- while contributing to your soul development -- or, it can be merely an expansion of your desire to gratify your own motives (the latter will most often take the form of extravagance and questionable judgment in finances).
As to which of these will prevail, the answer lies in what you do in applying your free will and your abilities to know what you have set as your ideal. Resources for ideals include reading English literature and history, along with inspiration from music. As remedial measures for this somewhat challenging pattern, the wearing of planetary gemstones about the body can be a helpful vibratory influence. Specifically recommended is either the turquoise blue or pigeon-blood ruby. [1143-2]
Your Sun is in an inharmonious pattern with Saturn.
You tend to seek out new ideas and try new things yourself even if others have questioned their value. You are likely frequently to be undertaking specific projects which have good financial prospects and potentials for popularity and helpfulness. Yet more often than not, at least until you reach middle age, they have not materialized. Along with these challenges you may at times have a rather broad negative attitude toward life in the earth plane, as well as a low self-image.
When disturbing factors come into your experience you are likely to turn and seek a new direction, to start over again. This is a tendency from your indwelling as a soul in the Saturn dimension between earth lives. When these tests and soul trials arise, it would be well if you heeded the injunction to stand steadfast and see God's glory within you.
These disappointments and frustrations are probably returning to you from past life experiences in which you were responsible for bringing similar challenging experiences into the lives of others.
At times, your longing for changes in your associations has resulted in considerable daydreaming. Visualizing ideal situations and possessions or relationships which you might be engaged in, especially materially and financially, is an avenue you may often use for venting your frustrations.
As you learn patience and longsuffering -- out of a sense of seeing these obstacles and delays as opportunities for soul growth and giving rather than out of duty, doom or destiny -- greater will be your inner peace and spiritual development. [487-1]
Your Moon harmoniously aspects Mercury.
Your strong mental urges and high intellectual abilities in virtually any direction you choose arise from your afterlife soul journeys, that is, the activities of your superconscious when absent from the material, earth plane.
Now, at the time of your birth there was a particularly favorable pattern between the Moon, mirror of karmic emotion from past lives and Mercury, heavenly realm of the mental. This carries into your present life from your previous one a great deal of harmony between your mind and emotions.
For instance, in a prior incarnation, perhaps in your immediately previous life, you may have been, or at least closely related to, an important public figure. During that lifetime your communication and basic social skills were highly developed, perhaps out of necessity.
Moreover, you read from the resourceful side of your akashic ledger at the time of your soul's earth reentry at birth. This brought back to you from your previous life a basic integration and natural coworking of your feeling and thought processes.
Your mental-emotional harmony together with your powerful intellect gives you an extraordinary capacity to communicate your ideas to others, whether privately one-on-one or publicly before a large audience. These communication skills, together with your alert mind, interesting conversation and sharpness of perception, all combine to make you a natural teacher and writer, especially in training the minds of the young and in carrying out a personal mission to deliver a specific message.
Perhaps worded in your own way, let your prayer be something like, "Lord, I am grateful for the ability to respond to others with genuine, loving concern. You have given me the willingness to lend a sympathetic ear, and the moving stories I hear prompt me to help people in need. Also, Lord, I am grateful for a good memory, and for the skill to communicate my thoughts and feelings effectively. With these gifts, may I spread Your message of love to those who yearn for hope and understanding." [3948-1, 2459-1, 140-3]
Your Mercury is conjoined with Venus.
You have high intellectual abilities together with a strong home loving and artistic temperament. You have a cautious, resolute and tenacious mind, reserved and self-controlled as far as feelings for others is concerned. You are interested in people, are a good conversationalist and companion, and a wholesome influence on most groups. Your entrance into groups or companionships with others is even more beneficial to them than to you. You would make an excellent creative writer or designer, being interested in all forms of the arts, especially music, color and form.
In fact, your intellectual, artistic abilities are very likely to be considerably above average. Therefore your potentials especially in the literary field are exceptional. Commercial applications of your mental abilities in law and advertising are also encouraged.
The love influence in its highest or noblest sense is primary for you. Were others to criticize you for allowing what they perceive as carnal love to be influencing you excessively --your experience of "love at first sight" for example -- you do little condemning in return. Although you and many others see the sacredness of such physical expressions, your love expressions are likely to be mostly on the level of speaking kindly and having generosity, a gentleness of manner and trueness of spirit. You are more likely to fall in love with a beautiful evening, and to find much wonder in the moon, the planets and stars. The beauty of nature, with its clouds, lightening, thunder and other natural voices are for you -- though maybe hard for others to understand - - an especially rewarding, stabilizing influence.
Attraction to and by the beautiful and handsome in the opposite sex will often influence you a great deal. If other past life indicators point to challenges in this area of your personal life, they are most likely to deal with the influences of passion, on both the mental and purely physical levels. That is, your feelings, desire, and sensation -- all elements of passion -- may at times be overactive, even impulsive. There is also some danger of jealousy and misplaced trust in love relationships. This may actually be due to a mild aversion of forming close relationships, because of past life associations needing self-healing in the present.
Moreover, it may often be difficult for you to hear from others, or yourself express through stories, jokes or the like, that which is considered coarse or crude. However, having considerable mental concentration powers as well as charm you can control and disguise your feelings when you feel the need. [1136-1, 2612-1, 2386-1, 1792-1, 234-1, 305-3, 1637-1, 304-5, 3271-1, 2124-3, 1716-1, 1991-1, 1230-1]
Your Venus is trine Jupiter.
This is one of the most fortunate patterns to have at one's birth, as it brings you a deep religious faith and highly developed soul forces. Spiritually high-minded individuals from past life associations will be attracted to you, as will financial prosperity.
Jupiter especially brings a widening, broadening group-oriented influence, so that traveling long distances, meeting people from abroad and mastering subjects from ancient times are all likely to come naturally to you. Your past lives probably had in common appearances at times when far-reaching changes were coming about in the economic world, as well as in the intellectual, cultural and religious thought of the planet's inhabitants. At least one prominent experience in the Holy Land is likely to have been your lot, and souls you contacted then will be attracted to you again for your counsel and spiritual upliftment.
In all you do, see, feel, understand that all things which are beautiful in love, friendship, hope, grace and patience give the greater, truer concept of the relationship your physical and mental experiences bear to the Whole, or God. Therefore only look at past challenges and disturbances as steppingstones rather than stumbling blocks. Know that each of these difficulties have been to enrich your understanding so that you can create and share with others more of the love and beauty manifested in the TRUTH.
Also, try to bear in mind that while Venus and Jupiter's combined influence is indeed benevolent, it is still necessary to heed the universal law of "give and take" (otherwise known as the principle that you can't have your cake and eat it too). That is, if you are to have friends and be loved, you must be friendly and loving. If you are to experience the advantages of prosperity, social and economic success, you have to show your understanding of this law.
Above all, your greater work this lifetime will then be in encouraging the weak and fainthearted, in giving courage and strength to those who have fallen off course and by making others aware of the Christ's presence in them. By doing this, you may well finish your soul purpose this incarnation so that you will not need to return to the earth again. [1789-7, 967-1, 365-3, 329-1, 934-1, 1946-1, 3474-1]
Your Mars harmoniously aspects Neptune.
In your cosmic past -- including previous earth incarnations as well as planetary soul experiences between lives -- you have been true to your higher spiritual intents and purposes. As a result you are easily able to enlist the aid of your angelic guardians and spirit guides.
This powerful spiritual protection, while hidden by its very nature, enables you to avoid deception from yourself and others. The same mystical protective shield also puts you in an excellent position to help others who are having difficulties with deception, drug or alcohol abuse, spirit possession, psychic illusions or delusions and a variety of mystical and occult-related preoccupations.
This favorable pattern brings from your past life spiritual bankbook many assets which you have earned for constructive use in the present. Among these positive karmic resources are very strong potentials for working safely and successfully with intuitive, psychic and mystical forces.
With the spiritual protection which surrounds you, together with your integrity and strong compassion, you are a practical idealist who can "dream true".
That is, rather than being deceived or deluded by your dreams and visions, you can be guided by and act decisively upon your dream, meditation and prayer experiences. This unique quality gives you great potential for much-needed spiritual leadership in the present.
Your Mars is in an inharmonious pattern with Saturn.
Mars is the consciousness dimension experienced between earth lives which prompts us toward action and applying energy (whether aggressively, athletically, competitively, militarily or wrathfully). Saturn is the realm of heavy changes and basic soul reprogramming. You chose a day of birth when these two planets were inharmoniously squared off or opposite each other in the zodiac, as seen from the earth. This is a challenging pattern which creates a tendency for you to be pulled often in opposite directions: for instance, you may have urges to act yet feel equally strongly the necessity not to act.
These conflicting, if not erratic, influences have been fed by your interlife soul activities in these planetary heavens, with the challenge wherein you "blow hot, then cold." This results in dissatisfaction frequently entering into areas of your life -- especially your career -- in which your physical energies are directed.
So special effort will be needed at such times for you to exert your will force to control your temperament. This is particularly likely to be true of urges toward anger and a tendency toward hastiness in drawing conclusions and judging others. This is usually because others are not in accord with a specific desire of yours to impel them to think the same way as you do.
In your previous life you may well have been an American pioneer or pilgrim, perhaps acting as a soldier of fortune, or as one of those who condemned spiritualism in New England (which was then called witchcraft). While the action of your will regarding personal ideals of love and unity override ALL astrological and karmic influences, it may appear at times that you take advantage of others, pursuing things which are satisfying to you at the moment.
If and when such conditions manifest, bear in mind that you are part of a larger whole, part of a family, a city, a body of laws, a country, a part of the Body of Christ. Unless you are as considerate of others as you are of yourself, in this natural holistic relationship just described, there will come turmoil and strife. Remember too that soul growth does not necessarily come from some mighty act of courage or grand purpose to carry out through some spectacular experience. And do bear in mind that true spiritual progress comes through what you THINK in your heart day by day.
In fact, anyone is blessed if they have the good fortune -- as you can have through exercising your free will --to turn those forces that seem to block your constructive thoughts and actions into opportunities to revive your soul's purpose in this lifetime.
And it is this very lack of a definite higher purpose that probably drives you through such restless, often self-centered changes and varying interests. Instead, center your purpose in the Christ and prayerfully study and personalize His promises in the Scriptures, especially in chapters 14-17 of John's Gospel.
Above all, know what your ultimate standard, your true purpose, your guiding ideal really is way down deep: that is, determine within yourself, for instance through studying your dreams or other forms of self-analysis, whether your ideal is spiritual, truly creative, or merely for enhancing your ego and for self-gratification. The choice can only be made by you.
On the more resourceful side, you have a naturally good business sense and with application of your will toward tempering your temperament, development of your soul forces --bringing you contentment and satisfaction -- is likely to come near the middle of your life. [1977-1, 3630-2, 1757-2, 4835-1, 1587-1, 1978-1]
Your Jupiter is in an inharmonious pattern with Saturn.
"The merchant is never the student, nor is the student ever the merchant." You might heed this saying, for your experience in Saturn brings you such changes in your career that you may muddle it up by going in too many directions at once. While you have a great deal of soul development potential this lifetime -- and this go 'round for you is critical, as it is for most of us -- you could defeat yourself through an inclination at times to "give up." You thereby evade the responsibilities which come with having such powers and talents as you possess.
The main self-defeating pattern to watch out for more specifically involves your Saturnian urges for travel, a change of scene, always wanting a fresh start and taking on far more than you can realistically handle. You are also likely to need constant stimulation, with a tendency toward heroics, (but without sufficiently flexing your own spiritual muscles).
Instead, your heroism and hero worship should be replaced with self-direction through following the IDEALS of spiritual heroes, patriarchs and prophets. An added reason for increasing the role of personal ideals for self-direction is your inclination to exploit situations rather than taking constructive advantage of opportunities.
This is not at all to say that you are irresponsible: quite the contrary. You are much more likely to be in positions where you face heavy responsibilities. However, confusions may often come as to the best way to derive the maximum benefit from them, both for yourself and for others. With these burdens comes a lifetime with a vast scope of experience, yet frequently misinterpreted by others (hence the confusion just mentioned).
While at times taken advantage of because of it, you nonetheless usually choose to see only the good in others, and are a natural -- although occasionally confused -- diplomat.
In addition to diplomacy, your Jupiterian experience also gives you considerable vision in the financial, political, social and religious areas of life. Applying yourself in these directions, especially though writing, a lot of help and good will come your way which you can share with a very wide audience. [811-2, 1426-1, 1089-3, 2496-1, 773-1]
Your Saturn harmoniously aspects Neptune.
You were born at a time when Saturn (practical planet of changes) and Neptune (spiritual plane of ideals, dreams, and visions) were in a resourceful, flowing pattern. This is one of the most fortunate ones to have at birth, for Neptune elevates Saturn to its highest, most ideal level.
Therefore, from your karmic past this brings you spirituality and philosophical depth with the ability to rely on and apply your dream and meditation guidance in practical ways. Rather than seeking counsel around you, meet your Maker within yourself, and let the guidance come there as to what you shall do.
Another fortunate feature of this pattern is the opportunity for you to explore inner spiritual planes successfully and without misfortune. You can then express your experiences in useful, concrete ways valuable to others on the spiritual path.
In other words, you can be of unique service as the practical spiritual pioneer who dreams. These experiences in the earth are not so that you can achieve either fame or fortune or even the recognition of a wonderful accomplishment, but that you can always be a channel through which blessings and help may come to others.
In addition, you are inclined to be very conscientious and hard working, with very good business skills, especially in management and organizational work, and in design or planning.
Be sure to balance the responsible, business side of your life with opportunities for rest and recreation. You will be even more effective when you labor if you take time to love nature -- to smell its flowers, listen to its birds, watch its sunsets.
NOTE: The Zodiac signs of the Sun and Moon are
analyzed below. First they will be analyzed in
the Tropical zodiac. If the positions are
different in the Sidereal zodiac, then they
will also be analyzed in the Sidereal zodiac.
Also, if the Sun and Moon are in the same zodiac
sign, then only the Sun position is interpreted;
the Moon position, being the same as the Sun
position, does not need to be interpreted in
this case.
Your Sun is in Capricorn (Tropical zodiac).
Capricorn's influence inclines you to be one who is both a materialist AND one interested in spiritual things.
For instance, you were probably once among the natives of North America, who long before the white man set foot upon this shore, had developed an extraordinarily rich and meaningful culture. In fact, many things associated with the American Indians are likely to be innate talents or otherwise special to you.
From one or more lifetimes as a native American, you developed a knack for being able to handle powerful changes in your life situation. You also have an appreciation of the balance and organized interplay of Mother Nature and her creatures, as well this natural ability to move with the flow of life around you.
While you have a strong sense of independence and personal identity, you also well understand the necessity for people to live and work together as social beings. Therefore you acknowledge and accept the need for group organization, responsibility and structured communications.
Order, responsibility and structure, along with a capacity to cope and grow with heavy changes in life, are also key influences of Saturn, the planet which rules or best symbolizes the sign of Capricorn.
Now, because of your independent, down-to-earth attitude, carried over in part from past lives when your personal sense of identity was intense, you may often experience a kind of power struggle with your partner. This attitude probably occurred often in times of military involvement with the ideals of victory with honor, such as during the Greek wars between ancient Sparta and Athens. [1869-1]
Your Moon is in Leo (Tropical zodiac).
Leo symbolizes the consciousness wherein there is strength, creativity and virility, as well as a certain headstrong or willful nature in how you apply yourself in relationship with others.
For instance, reading biographical or historical novels about European royalty, daydreaming about the courts of Kings and Queens of modern Europe or ancient times and other grandeurs of the past may bring to your conscious mind memories of previous incarnations when you were at the forefront of things. Hence to this very day there probably remains within you considerable inner strength along with a strong feeling for behind-the-scenes intrigues as well as a powerful sense of individualism. These qualities are probably connected with your past life experiences involved -- directly and indirectly -- with leaders of society and government.
You are also likely to have an above-average interest in the great artistic and spiritual accomplishments of the grand cathedrals and great churches of Britain and Europe, as well as the ancient temples of the Mediterranean world.
In addition, you may have been one of the higher-ranking Vikings who, like other royalty, also had an exciting lifestyle. And in far earlier times, during and after the last days of Lemuria and Atlantis, you may have been among the Incan pyramid builders in the mountains of South America, the Mayan plains of Central America, and of course, Egypt, the land which is virtually synonymous with great pyramids.
The Sun is the ruler or symbol of Leo, and represents strength and soul force. So, from the Sun's influence and the past life experiences summarized here, you are inclined to have a special sense of pride and dignity which, depending on how you apply your will and the ideals you have set for yourself, can either enhance or hinder your relationships with others (and hence either advance or retard your soul growth this lifetime). [533-20, 2905-3]
Your Sun is in Sagittarius (Sidereal zodiac).
Great expanses of space, including the seemingly endless expanse of oceans, are likely to call to you, and in them you probably find some of your most quieting and comforting experiences. In your past lives, then, under circumstances when great expanses and very broad spaces brought you the most insightful and contemplative experiences of your mental being, it was then that spiritually you probably gained the most.
For example, traveling long ago as a Spanish, English or even Japanese settler, pioneer or explorer, you may have crossed the oceans in search of a better world. You were then part of a strong sea-faring culture which frequently set out --over a period of many centuries -- to explore, invade and often defeat enemies and cultures usually much greater in strength and size.
Jupiter is the planet which rules or symbolizes the heart of Sagittarian energies, supplying you with a broadly courageous -- though at times daredevil -- quality. Yet underneath this often exciting exterior lies a calm but calculating mind. Another characteristic experience is one or more past lives involving a lot of movement, change and separation from your family and your cultural roots.
In your deeper meditations you might recall urges and impressions of migrating at the time of the Deluge of Atlantis (commonly called the Great Flood), to other, safer lands to begin a new life and a new age of history.
Your more intimate, personal relationships often may not be as harmonious as you would really like for them to be. This challenge is rooted in past lives when, as in the present, you were somewhat inclined to prefer partnerships capable of enduring considerably different interests through a great deal of diverse activity. [1740-1]
Your Past Life Decanates
According to an ancient Vedic astrology method
still practiced in India, Past Life Planets are realms
in which you sojourned between earth lifetimes. They
are identified through the position of your sidereal
Sun and Moon in the decanates (a decanate is a one-
third division of a zodiac sign; each is ruled by a
planet). Any patterns involving these Past Life
Planets are therefore of special importance. Pay extra
attention, then, to any sections of your Report which
interpret these planets.
NOTE: If your Sun and Moon are both located in a
decanate which is ruled by the same planet, then
only the Sun position is interpreted; the Moon's
decanate position, being the same as the Sun's,
therefore does not need to be interpreted.
Your Sun is in Leo Decanate
Your sidereal Sun is in the decanate of LEO, which is ruled by the Sun. The Sun as Past Life Planet indicates a high level of soul development and power with great potential for spiritual service and leadership in the present.
As the Sun sojourn between lives is the highest interlife experience possible in this system, you may have voluntarily chosen to reincarnate to help and uplift others. Therefore one or more prior lifetimes of leadership in religious or state affairs, or both, in ancient Egypt, Persia, modern Europe, or elsewhere in Asia, is likely.
