SECTION I.  The Structure and Intent of Your Life.

There are four items of general interest that we want to take up here in Section I: A) Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis, B) Elements and Modes, C) The Ascendant and Midheaven, and D) The Conjunctions.  These four categories give us an intelligent overview of how you structure personal experience and what you aim for in life.  This general patterning gives us a context to understand the specific personal meaning of the material in Sections 2 through 11.

     A.  Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis

The different areas of life are laid out in the horoscope by spatial territories called houses.  These areas of life show interests and general involvements for each person.  These areas can be grouped together for a vast overview of most basic inclinations of the person. The most useful general groupings of houses is into hemispheres and quadrants.  Emphasis in a hemisphere or quadrant shows a particularly strong focus toward life from that perspective.

          1. Hemisphere

The horoscope can be split into 2 equal parts, either horizontally (giving us the upper and lower hemispheres) or vertically (giving  us the right and left hemispheres).  The Upper Hemisphere shows the outer, more extroverted side of the personality, the Lower Hemisphere shows the more introverted and hidden side of the personality.  In the Left Hemisphere planets are rising and this shows action.  In the Right Hemisphere planets are setting and this shows reaction.

Most Planets Above the Horizon

You have the majority of your planets above the horizon showing that you have a need for contact with the outer world in order to feel fulfilled each day.  You enjoy projects, achieving and a sense of accomplishment.  Success for its own sake is more important than what security it might present to you.

Most Planets Setting

You have the majority of your planets on the western half (or right-hand side) of your chart.  Your natural tendency is to seek others' approval and to question the probable outcome of an action before putting your first efforts forward.

          2. Quadrant

The two ways of splitting the horoscope into hemispheres can be applied simultaneously giving us four quadrants.  The FIRST is called the quadrant of personality.  The SECOND is called the quadrant of the environment.  The THIRD is called the quadrant of relationship.  The FOURTH is called the quadrant of service.

Most Planets in the Third Quadrant

You have the majority of your planets in the third quadrant.  You desire to relate and will seek out experiences that bring you in contact with people and increase your scope of information of others. This is your primary motivation in all activities.  You want physical, emotional, or intellectual contact with others. This is your primary vehicle of personal development.

     B.  Elements and Modes

The Elements and Modes show what we aim for in life.  They show our broadest focus and in the most general sense, how we go about achieving our goals.

          1. Elements

The four elements (fire, earth, air and water) are the most comprehensive inventory of the personality that we have. Everything in the universe including the human personality can be examined in terms of the four elements.  FIRE is your basic enthusiastic urge,  EARTH shows your concern for the material world,  AIR is the element of abstract thought,  WATER is your empathy impulse.  Fire and earth are primitive and focus on the self.  Air and water are derivative and focused on others.  Fire and air are naturally extrovert, optimistic, active, and freedom oriented.  Earth and water are basically introvert, pessimistic, passive, and security oriented.

Fire

You have a lot of fire in your chart.  Fire is the element of energy, enthusiasm, and immediate and spontaneous focus on the self.  You go from event to event selecting projects that give the full range of outlet for your energy.  This process of selection is precognitive, instantaneous and automatic.  People respond to the inspirational spark in you and your enthusiasm and boundless exuberance is evident whenever you are being your real self.

Earth

You have no earth in your chart.  This means that the material world and its difficulties are not much of a focus for you.  The resources in your life come and go without giving you a great deal of concern.  You can always locate money or its equivalent when you are truly interested.

Air

You have just 20% of your chart in the air element.  You have a magic blend in the air element.  You have an ever-active intellect.  Your eye is always looking, your mind is always attempting to grasp more and more information.  You don't feel confident in what you know.  This lack of confidence prompts you to keep on task with the learning process.  You never relax on the subject of gathering new information. In the long run, you become quite scholarly in life, out-performing most others in the mental realm.

Water

You have 30% of your chart in the water element.  The emotional content of your chart is so strong that it is never a neutral ingredient in your life.  How you are able to integrate this quality of empathy into the rest of your personality traits will determine how well you will mingle with others.   Learning good relationship skills early in life is very important to your proper adjustment and socialization to life and your culture.

          2. Modes

The three modes are CARDINAL, FIXED, and MUTABLE.  The modes of expression show how you act out your urges in the world.  They represent your most basic responding mechanism toward all of life experience.  The cardinal planets show direct expression in physical action, leadership ability and strength.  The fixed mode planets in your chart show reaction, consistency, persistency, endurance and stubbornness.  The mutable planets in your chart show synthesis, blending, malleableness, thought, forethought, debate and wisdom.  The following statements show the way the three modes manifest in your life.

Cardinal

You have an abundance of cardinal planets in your chart.  You are very active.  You are able to choose a direction and go your own way in life.  You are stronger than most of the people you know and this gives you a natural desire for leadership.  Be aware, you act impulsively and this can be either a strength or a weakness.  Try to control your assertions so that you stay in harmony with your environment and you won't suffer from self-inflicted accidents or difficulties.

Fixed

You have 20% of your planets in the fixed mode.  You don't have as much stick-to-itiveness as most people.  Still, if circumstances require it, you can put forth great amounts of energy in a controlled way, treading water until new opportunities to act present themselves.

Mutable

You have 30% of your chart in the mutable mode.  Adjustment to new circumstances is relatively easy for you.  Part of your nature is very stimulated by change.  You like to think about your experiences so as to accommodate any new information that occurs.  This is not your only way of being but your favorite mode of operation can be reactive. Exposure to new ideas and methods can help you be calmer while still helping you maintain interest in life.

     C.  The Ascendant and Midheaven (Signs and Aspects)

          1.  The Ascendant

The ascendant is symbolic of our relationship to our immediate environment.  This is the point rising in the east when we are born. One manifestation of our immediate environment is our physical body. The physical environment includes our body, our surroundings and our emotional and mental states.  Thus, the ascendant tells us how our inner core expresses itself, and how we take in information from others and the universe generally. The sign rising in your horoscope tells us the type of energy you are processing, the type of physical body that you have for doing the processing and the natural inclinations you have in the personal arena in life.  The planets in aspect to your ascendant tell us the kind of energy and stamina you have as natural allies in life.  The ascendant is opposite the seventh house cusp (the place where we meet others and the world).  This axis (ascendant-descendant) is how we clarify ourselves through relationships. Planets in aspect to this axis indicate the types of people and the types of relationships we seek as well as how and why we seek them.

                               LEO RISING

You have a strong, fixed, and sunny projection of yourself into your environment.  You can be very openhearted and very kind to others but for all your optimism and openness you can suffer from narrow self-interest and have difficulty seeing larger issues than circumstances in your own life.  Freedom and immediate pleasure keep your attention in the moment but your self-concern and a stubborn quality can stop you from  achieving as much as you would like in life. Everyone seems to genuinely like you; despite this fact very few people ever get really close, as your aura of self sufficiency keeps you distant.  You identify a lot with how your relationships go in life. Still, it is usually more positive for you to directly and personally express the artistic and creative side of your nature rather than have this flair for the dramatic emerge in the interactive arena, where it has the tendency to create chaos.  However, regardless of the difficulties, you do always "land on your feet".  Your environment and relationships will always emanate a basic sense of good taste regardless of how high or how humble your surroundings.

Moon Semi-Square the Ascendant

You have a certain amount of painful self-awareness that stops you from expressing your true feelings as easily as others. Still, your feelings run deep and do come out.  Try to worry less about whether or not others understand your intentions.  Don't let difficulties in your daily routines stop you from completing your obligations.

Mercury Quincunx the Ascendant

Communicating is not always easy for you even though you have an interest in getting to the roots of things.  The trick for you is often getting the mind and your actions to agree with each other.

Venus Quincunx the Ascendant

You reach for an unattainable beauty.  Your quest for a higher ideal becomes more fulfilling as you get older and learn patience which is the key to moving from escapist confusion to powerful and enriching expression of your love nature.

Mars Opposition the Ascendant and in the 7th House and afflicted.

It is hard for you to recognize what you do that provokes others. Still, there are times when you seem to excite others' aggressions without doing very much.  Get in contact with your own disharmony and relationships as well as life in general will be much smoother.

Jupiter Trine the Ascendant

You have a strong urge to express your thoughts and feelings to others in a positive and optimistic manner.  You like people and enjoy interacting with them.  You are attracted to confident and positive people, and they to you.  People tend to bond with you over qualities in themselves that they feel good about.  Your basic optimism and confidence gives you a perspective that allows you to see opportunity. This leads to winning, achieving and joy.

Saturn Trine the Ascendant

You like to work hard and are self-disciplined, knowing how to make progress toward any  chosen goal.  Your vision is long range and very practical.  You know how to get results and favor what works.  Because you feel responsible for what you do, often you are found working by yourself.  You need to create something of value in order to feel worthwhile in life.  Others rely on you even though you are a bit serious, difficult to penetrate, and have a propensity to work by yourself.

Neptune Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 1st House and unafflicted.

You are sensitive with a strong psychic ability to "tune into" other people's expectations of you.  You create an aura of sensitivity, malleability and beauty that allows others to project onto you anything they wish to see.  This gives you a dreamy and a dramatic nature.  You are an idealist, wanting to see a better world.  You are genuinely concerned with others and a kindness pervades all your interactions. You evaluate relationships in your personal life on their emotional content.

          2.  The Midheaven

The Midheaven is the high point in your chart.  It indicates what you aspire for, what you see as your duty, and what authority and limits are about.  Because of this basic meaning the Midheaven indicates how you live out your social station and what you do for your career.  The point opposite the Midheaven is the fourth house cusp, referred to as the nadir, which is the indication of our roots, our heritage. This axis (Midheaven-Nadir) indicates the way we grow in life.  The sign on the Midheaven shows our basic energy and approach toward dealing with the world.  Planets in aspect to the Midheaven show qualities of our inner being that we wish to contribute to the world and that we wish to be fulfilled through our interaction with the outer world.

                            TAURUS MIDHEAVEN

You are solid.   You can be stubborn and need to be sure you are not taking yourself or your position in life too seriously.  You can be quite loyal but also a real "turf protector" and closed to new input. This quality can contribute to long range success built on slow, cautious accumulation or can be responsible for you setting your aim so low in life that you don't live up to your potential.

Sun Semi-Sextile the Midheaven

You have a long climb to the top of your professional life and there is an important learning that goes along the way.  You keep working at the whole picture of how to meaningfully include others in your upward journey in life.  Self expression and the acceptance of responsibility go hand in hand.

Mercury Sextile Midheaven

You have the ability to explain your thoughts well to others. You are able to change your attitudes and inclinations to go along with changes in the circumstances in your life.

Venus Sextile Midheaven

You love a beautiful environment and are good at knowing how to find yourself in comfortable surroundings.  You have a certain graciousness that helps you in any social situation.

Jupiter Semi-Sextile the Midheaven

Pride may get in the way so that you don't truly recognize how much help you receive from others.  It is only through this recognition that your life takes on continuity and balance person to person and personal life to career.  Take the time to truly acknowledge other peoples' contribution to your life, livelihood, and career.  Through doing this you create a new context through which to understand how lucky you really are.  Further, you may start recognizing the finer qualities within you that your superiors have seen all along.

Saturn Quincunx the Midheaven

The pressures of life can weigh on you, especially in youth. Learning to handle your obligations in a timely and limiting manner is very important part of coming to understand what your life is really about. You have a well developed social conscience that is not always attuned to your desires.  Frustrating compromises are necessary until you start fashioning your desires into a mold of social responsibility and awareness.  From this point on there is no conflict between your culture, social vision and your personal destiny.  You take pleasure in fulfilling your own goals as they are in step with your social picture.

Uranus Semi-Square Midheaven

You prefer to make your own rules and then to consider yourself an exception to them.  You go through several changes of direction which makes your life interesting and exciting but does stop you from making consistent progress toward your goals.  You trade security and acquisition for personal freedom.

Pluto Sextile Midheaven

You are intense and insightful and these characteristics carry you far in career.  You are very skilled at seeing what will work to bring two people or groups of people together.  Your strength of character rests on your ability to see what will work.

     D. The Conjunctions.

A Conjunction occurs when two planets are in the same immediate area of the Zodiac.  The conjunctions in your chart show central linkings of basic energies in your life.  When one area (represented by a planet) expresses itself, it brings along the other area (represented by the other planet).  When you are studying the rest of this printout of your life, keep in mind that linking of these energies is a central theme in your life and these areas should be studied together.

Sun Conjunct Jupiter

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure and VII. JUPITER -Your values, as a single unit.  These two very primary ingredients of your being express themselves together.  Whatever affects one of them affects both of them.  This Conjunction represents a central theme in your life.

Mercury Conjunct Venus

Think of Sections IV. MERCURY - Your mental life, and V. VENUS -Your love nature, as a single unit.  This Conjunction is a central indicator of the way you interact with people and your environment.

SECTION II.  The SUN - Your Ego Structure

The Sun is the center of the solar system.  All life revolves around it within this sphere.  In the same way, the ego is the center of personal identity and gives integration and continuity to individual experience. In this sense, it might be said that the Sun shows character.  This is the fixed pillar at the center of the person around which all else circulates or revolves.

The sign placement of the Sun shows the center of the individual's basic character.  The sign of the Sun is the most primary indicator of the forms of experience you are attracted to.  Further, this most important placement shows how and why you are attracted to these experiences.

The house placement of the Sun sign shows the primary area of expression for the individual in life.  There is a psychological, emotional, and physical significance to the house placement of the Sun. Aspects to the Sun show ways that the core of the personality are linked to other component elements in the individual's life.  Aspects to the Sun have a deep and overriding significance in the life of the individual and are generally more important, more prominent than other aspects in the chart.

SUN IN ARIES

You feel yourself to be a natural leader.  You are always looking for the spot at the head of the company or the class.  You are unconcerned with whether or not others follow you on your various crusades and campaigns.  Your basic nature is independent and instantaneously self-expressive.  You are good at sizing up a situation quickly. Because you are impulsive, others may think of you as thoughtless or careless.  You do often lack patience and tolerance with others.  Learn moderation and life is easier.

Sun in 8th house

You tend to be withdrawn and secretive.  Because of your interest in activity behind the scenes you may find your natural place in life working on something which requires large amounts of time alone.  Your self-picture moves in extremes from blunt and dull to layer upon layer of infinitely rich textures.

Sun in 8th house Unafflicted

Brick by brick, you build success.  It's slow but it does come. You filter all experience and compare one item to another, selecting one at a time, that which works best.  You prefer an attitude of doing more with less.  A lot goes on in your soul that most people never see.  You are hard to get close to, but others are always rewarded for their effort to get to know you.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

You have a tendency to get in your own way.  You have material and emotional needs that cut against the grain of what you try to accomplish for ego satisfaction.  You have some real success in life but it can be short-lived or fluctuating until the time that you have eked out some reasonable compromise between your inner drives and your mechanisms and techniques for accomplishing your goals.  When you have difficulty mastering sufficient physical vitality or enthusiasm for a goal you have chosen, it is time to get to the roots of the inner conflict that is stealing your energy.

SUN OPPOSITION YOUR MOON

Dynamic tension exists between energy and goals.  You have difficulty accomplishing your objectives in life because of basic conflicts you have between your ego drives and your emotional needs.  You will tend to live out one directly and to project the other onto someone else in your life.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You are energetic and brave but sometimes too impulsive or rash. You hurt yourself and others at times through outbursts of temper.  You can back a losing cause at times, throwing good energy after bad.  You do this because you view your goals through a desire-incrusted lens which distorts your vision or because you mis-evaluate your own power, or both.  You can guard against this tendency by learning to draw conclusions from all of life rather than just your own immediate wants. You are naturally powerful but need to guard against the tendency to run over others.

SUN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MARS

Little things going wrong or opposing you ignite great resources of energy into motion.  You can get angry in a flash.  You can make your own life miserable and narrow, getting even with people, bureaucracies, or material objects.  Excitement carries you far.  Anger wastes your energy and prohibits your progress. Only real understanding can keep your energy focused productively.

SUN CONJUNCT JUPITER

You are generous but don't always make the best judgment as to where you can do the most good.  There is a good-hearted optimism at the center of your being which takes the edge off other things that may be problematic.  You think well of people and are a good judge of character.  Your vitality is good but you do need to watch that you are not overindulgent.  You love luxury and too much of a good thing can be trouble.  Although you do have financial gain, at times you can be extravagant.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You are self-disciplined and self-aware.  You are ambitious and are willing to work hard to put your vision into action.  Your naturally conservative instincts lead on a safe and sure path although it may well be a slow one.  Being basically of sound judgment and reliable, people tend to trust you; these qualities alone may put you in a position of leadership at some point.

SUN TRINE YOUR SATURN

Your upbringing, family, and personal history lead you to expect the good in life.  Your lofty expectations underlie the "lucky breaks" that come to you.  Your personality has a cautious, serious, and disciplined ingredient that supports your vision of life which is practical and specific but also limited.  Your productivity is linked to your instinct for finding the "law of gravity" operating through the center of any project.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You have a deeply secretive side to your nature.  You are romantic, humanitarian and idealistic.  You suffer from an excess of emotion and exaggerated sensitivity to anything that goes wrong in life. Unfortunately, something going wrong can mean merely that it didn't live up to your expectations which can be quite inflated.  Your life becomes a dynamic, unstoppable force for good once you accomplish two things: one, you must become self disciplined (i.e. ascetic) enough that you overcome self-indulgence in every form, and two, you must know life by knowing, really knowing, yourself.

SUN SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR NEPTUNE

Self-deception and deception of others can make your life more complicated than it needs to be.  Your intuitions are powerful but can lead you far afield from what is in your best interest. Your idealism has to be connected to realistic pursuits in order to bear fruit.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are locked in a deep inner struggle that seems like life or death to you.  This can spill over into your everyday life as violent outbursts and a quarrelsome nature.  Your will is very powerful but perhaps misdirected.  Even if you are presumptuous, defensive, and boastful, your life will change dramatically and instantaneously for the better as soon as you stop attacking others and refuse to even blame anyone else for your difficulties.  Then, you will be able to really start controlling yourself.  When this happens you will lose your desire to control others completely and forever.

SUN SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

Growth in the area of self control is fast when you learn compromise. You are difficult to understand, even for those close to you.  You have amazing self-control, but pressure builds up until you experience a deep earth shattering explosion.  This eruption is always a by-product of unrelenting continuous inner tension.  In turn, this tension is created not by happenings or circumstances in your life, but, by your interpretation of events.  Negative, primitive, even backward emotions (as well as higher understanding) emerge out of what things symbolize to you, not what they actually are.  You are your own worst enemy and guilt can do you in.  Correct use of the past creates a balance in your future.  Resolving deep underlying personal conflicts (that make every issue seem like life and death decisions) frees up tremendous energy.

SECTION III.  The MOON - Your Personal Life.

The Moon inscribes a circle around the earth.  It moves more swiftly than other astronomical bodies and thus represents day to day and moment to moment movements, adjustments and preoccupations.  The Moon is the symbol of the personal life which is molded and shaped by our environment, by events, and by social and familial expectations. Further, the Moon shows our responses to life which are based on our past habits, experiences, our heritage and our individual and collective cravings.

The sign placement of the Moon shows how you project yourself to the general public, how the instinctive and imaginative component of your mind operates, how you express your feelings and your most general experiences of your family and mother.

The house placement of the Moon shows how and where you make day to day adjustments.  Further, it shows the things you are most interested in dealing with in order to gain emotional equilibrium.

The aspects of the Moon show the general characteristics of the personality that are emphasized.  Planets in aspect to the Moon are symbolic of qualities in the personality that are used instinctively, habitually and with a high degree of versatility.

MOON IN LIBRA

You are charming and refined with a strong desire to please.  You are friendly and generally get along well with people because you are basically very tolerant.  You like being the diplomat, the peacemaker. You instinctively feel others' point of view.  Avoid being paralyzed through over-sensitivity to others' perspective. Your feelings are so refined that it is difficult at times to establish your own equilibrium.  Having your own space, which is totally yours, can help you create inner peace through creating external beauty and order.

Moon in 2nd house

You have an emotional need to know that the bills are paid.  You have some fears connected with lack and you will attempt to create some material security as a guard against worry.  Your natural instinctive pattern in life tends to be along cautious, conservative lines.

Moon in 2nd house Afflicted

You easily get into emotional states because of shortsighted material worries.  The world never seems as stable as you would like it to be. The way out is to develop a sense of humor and a lighthearted attitude toward your situation.

MOON IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

Your Moon in aspect to your Sun is a central feature of you life. This aspect is the primary indicator of your basic energy.  We talked about this aspect in the Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

Outbursts of anger and emotional extravagance get you into trouble. You are always finding your limits by exceeding them. Better to learn to think before acting.  Planned intervals of strenuous physical activity can take the edge off of contentious emotions and help you obtain some deeper balance.  Don't eat when upset and your health will be better.  Link your energy to some humanitarian, idealistic project and your perspective widens and your life improves.

MOON SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR MARS

Enthusiasm and emotional explosion can lead to accidents.  Learn to pace yourself so that your desire nature doesn't force you into immature patterns of behavior.  Emotionally, you are always playfully, powerful, and experimental; looking for ways to rise above your limits.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You may suffer from pretending to be something that you are not. Avoid overstatement and exaggeration.  Arrogance can stop you from correcting yourself when you are in an untenable position. Don't take yourself or life too seriously and you will find a lighthearted sense of humor that will ease your difficulties. See self-indulgence as an enemy to be avoided and luck will find you.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR JUPITER

Public support fluctuates a great amount in your life.  First you can't get enough, then you get too much.  Harnessing other people's enthusiasm to your projects is always problematic.  If you have a good compromise between public and private life you may accomplish a lot of your dreams without having to "walk the plank" when the public withdraws support.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You get great ideas but have a tendency to act on a subject with brilliant insight and partial knowledge.  The accuracy of your specific perceptions successfully insulates you from needed correction by others.  When you become mentally defensive you fall into a pattern of emotional instability; that encourages you to promote less than your best ideas merely to be different.  You can fall into a negative spiral of being a social outcast and an iconoclast.  This is avoidable through finding the part of yourself that is genuinely interested in the welfare of humanity. As you get older, your emotional life becomes more stable as a direct result of (and in direct proportion to) your ability to express empathy for people in your daily life.  Big abstractions have to be practiced to have meaning.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR URANUS

You are locked into a pattern of emotional turmoil; it is easy to blame others and to feel victimized by others' erratic behavior, selfishness, or irresponsibility.  A bigger picture of yourself and life stabilizes your habits and makes life more fun.  Self acceptance is the key.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are emotionally sensitive to others and very idealistic. Your values and beliefs may be at odds with the status quo.  As a matter of fact, they may be just odd.  Don't promote an ideal or value that occurs to you without doing a thorough probe of your own deeper emotional motivations.  You may find that you are wasting your time building bridges between two nonexistent points.  The way out of this dilemma is to demand grounding of your ideas in the day to day workings of your own life.  You may suffer from time to time from a desire to do certain things which you are also afraid of.  You need to work hard at getting continuity between your values and your day to day life.  Avoid escapist actions that act as compensation for feeling incapable or unworthy.

MOON SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your ideals get in the way of integrating your practical experience. On an everyday pattern, flights of fancy can destroy a project if you aren't careful and attentive as to how your moods influence your judgment.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You easily get so emotionally "locked up" that it becomes difficult to alter or arrest a pattern once it has begun.  You can suffer a lot by cutting yourself off from others.  You may end a relationship that you desperately want if you feel the other person may reject you or abandon you sometime in the future.  You demand a loyalty from others that isn't only unrealistic, but is also something you are incapable of or unwilling to give to others yourself.  Further, you are capable of forming compulsive attachments where you hang onto a relationship long after the other person has left you emotionally or even physically.  In either of these cases, clearly you have to come to terms with the issue of power and control.  Don't be afraid of not being in control. Achieve self-control, understand your own emotions and your life becomes much easier.  You might explore your relationship with your mother as it had a much deeper effect on you than for most people.  You have ability to work with large figures and with money and finance. You are able to conceptualize many different items of experience simultaneously.  If your emotions don't get in your way, you become a leader in some realm.

MOON SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

Feelings of judgment and disagreement with others can leave you feeling paranoid.  Emotional limitations and self-judgments stop you from being open with others.  Realize that excessive secrecy stops you from getting correct (or enough) information from your environment. Self-defeating habits hold you back until you are able to get beyond unconscious fears.

SECTION IV.  MERCURY - Your Mental Life.

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun.  From the viewpoint of the earth it seems to dart back and forth across the face of the Sun, having three retrograde cycles a year.  Mercury is the planet of your mental life.  It shows how you receive, process and disseminate information. The sign placement of Mercury shows your basic attitude and mental habits.  The aspects of Mercury show your scope of vision and your methods for accomplishing tasks.

MERCURY IN PISCES

Your mind is reflective to the point of being chameleon-like. Why?  Because you think with your feelings and translate thoughts into something at the core of your being.  You don't just imitate, you become.  You have an artistic and very attenuated manner of communicating.  You have an openness and can incorporate several points of view.  You often see the humor in a situation and are good at expressing it.  You adjust to changes at a profound level.  You only need to be concerned about this if you find yourself becoming confused or lazy.  This is the sign that you are repressing your own insights while accepting someone else's.  Try to gain a detached look at your own drives when this happens.

Mercury in 8th house

You have a natural love of research.  You like to dig deep into experience.  You stay curious and have a tendency for searching out the roots of an issue and discovering people's motivations.

Mercury in 8th house Unafflicted

You have an uncanny knack for getting to the source of a difficulty. You are a good troubleshooter and problem-solver. You will get involved with social issues and the psychological underpinnings of people's actions.

MERCURY CONJUNCT VENUS

You have a certain charm and graciousness in your manner of expression.  You have an artistic sense which can come out as beautiful penmanship.  People like you and will often seek you out.  You, in turn, are good at helping others express themselves.  You are courteous, diplomatic, and good at paraphrasing because you have an overview that comes from a multifaceted perspective.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

At a core level you don't think well enough about yourself. It may appear that you do on the surface, but the truth of the matter is your pessimism and complaining comes from a fear that life will not give you what you want.  Learn to work smarter and not just harder.  You see the virtue in discipline and often force yourself to do things you feel are good for you.  In turn, you may resent others that don't work as hard.  It is more difficult for you to get where you are going because you are always having to compromise between what you would like to do and what you feel is required.  This conflict between desires and feelings of obligation is often the source of worry, stress, and wasted energy.  For all this, you excel in any area that requires close, careful judgment.

MERCURY SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Mental laziness is your enemy.  Your natural conservative "mind set" can take you along a path of success, but artificial worries and disagreements with authority can slow you down.  Root out any negative attitude and do away with vindictiveness and your life is easy.  Break big projects up into little pieces and be disciplined; then, your mind will take you far.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You go to the origin of a problem once you start working on it. You communicate with a quick, soft-spoken force that others pick up on magnetically.  You have both broad range and depth of interest.  You are very versatile and make a great problem solver.  Your mind is naturally interested in security issues which can run the gambit from ordinary cops and robber stuff, to high tech computer theft, national security, and the international monetary fund.  To fully use your skills you should spend time analyzing your motives.  Do a thorough investigation as to your own beliefs about the meaning of life.  Once you have these issues resolved you will not feel as secretive and your mental energy will be freer.

MERCURY TRINE YOUR PLUTO

Your understanding and depth of insight insure some progress in any field of study.  You are good at solving mysteries as you "see through" any situation.  You feel the inner connections between events, have good technical skills, and love exchanges over deep subjects.  Avoid becoming so deeply involved in your own environment that you don't connect with the outer world.

SECTION V.  VENUS - Your Love Nature.

The planet Venus shows the way you express your love nature and what you aspire for in life as good or beautiful. Venus has much to do with how you form your values.  The sign placement of Venus shows the type of love energy you have.  The house placement of Venus shows the natural area of expression of the love energy. The aspects of Venus indicate how and under what circumstances you express the gentle and loving side of your nature.

VENUS IN PISCES

You love beauty and find joy in giving.  You are emotional and extremely sensitive.  You benefit by raising your focus to the point that you correctly and accurately see the person you are focusing your attention on.  You are usually in love with an ideal in you rather than really seeing the other person as they are.  You have talent for poetry and music but this energy may just go into your personal life. Deep emotional interchanges can bring harmony.  Your emotions are your inner key.

Venus in 8th house

You like to explore feelings at their deepest level.  You may have a tendency to express yourself in ways that are misunderstood by others. For all this, your financial picture tends to brighten at every major turning point in life.

Venus in 8th house Unafflicted

You have good luck with getting to core issues in your involvement with others.  You are blessed with positive instincts in practical matters. You learn how to extract maximum pleasure from objects and people in your environment.  Repetition of past patterns brings success through intensity.  This principle brings you a "roll over" of physical pleasure or pain depending on your mental focus.  This principle can also be used positively to contribute to your financial success.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You have some real difficulties in love relationships and with the material world.  On the surface, you are a gentle soul just trying to keep what is yours and trying to stop the world from taking advantage of you.  Underneath this veneer you are driven by fear and greed and your life is poorer for it.  Your instincts are conservative and you are frugal with money but this isn't sufficient to offset poor judgment with people and things. Reappraise your way of being in the world.  If your hand is closed no one can take something from you, neither can you receive what others wish to give you.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Fear of rejection confuses and limits your life.  You know only too well that you want things, people, and relationships that you can't have until you relax and take some risks.  The down side of any gamble can scare you so much that you are miserly with your money and your affections.  When you finally do reach out (and you always do) you tend to do it poorly.  Overcome fear. Practice self acceptance without a lot of negative comparisons and judgments.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are powerful and magnetic.  You have a magic charm for dealing with people.  You have a universal love for people that is non-sectarian and non-judgmental.  You are sustained by material abundance that comes from others at some time in this life and may have a sizable inheritance. When you get involved with a project you can really pour yourself into it with seemingly limitless energy.  This energy evaporates when you aren't involved in a project of personal importance.

VENUS TRINE YOUR PLUTO

You have a way of hanging on to what is important in your life and getting rid of everything else.  Your love is powerful but very specific.  You have strong likes and dislikes and are very good at emotional discernment.

SECTION VI.  MARS - Your Energy.

Mars is the planet of desires.  It shows how you aim at your goals and how you power yourself toward your goals.  Mars represents your most fundamental wants.  The sign placement of Mars shows the fundamental nature of your assertions.  The house placement of Mars shows the area of your life you are most likely to focus on.  The aspects to Mars show how and to what extent your desires and assertions are involved with other aspects of living.

MARS IN AQUARIUS

You desire originality.  You are naturally attracted to the unusual. Humanitarianism is an ideal of yours but when you translate this ideal into action you can be blunt and impersonal. Your energy is dynamic and very independent.  Your method for getting what you want is to be experimental until you hit on a winning formula.  You can drive toward your goal in a very organized way.  You need to develop the sensitive, personable side of your nature a bit more.  Then, your energy flows smoother and more naturally.

Mars in 7th house

You are assertive in relationships and often bring out the most aggressive side of people that you interact with.  This adversarial attitude can run the gambit from healthy competition to open warfare.

Mars in 7th house Afflicted

You are attracted to certain qualities in others.  Your manner of assertion often brings you difficulties.  You may change relationships many times and replicate your problems in the new relationship.

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect of Mars to the Sun.  This shows that you have a very strong and direct nature.  Your energy and vitality are key ingredients to your self concept.  This issue is taken up in some detail in the Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

Mars in aspect to the Moon shows that you have a lot of energy wrapped up in your instinctive consciousness.  This insight is detailed out in Section III.  The Moon - Your Personal Life.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

When you speak, others listen.  You stir people to rethink basic assumptions.  You need to be careful that high ideals do not become an excuse for inaction, or that theory doesn't take the place of practice.  There is a spiritual quality to your thoughts that can point to fanatic rambling and an impractical attitude toward the responsibilities of life.  Avoid drugs, alcohol and anything that can be devitalizing.  You need to constantly re-check your direction so as to ensure absolute integrity of purpose.  You are prone to expound a belligerent philosophy while harboring escapist fantasies.

MARS OPPOSITION YOUR NEPTUNE

You feel easily frustrated as you chase your colorful visions. This occurs because you often misjudge what is possible, usually overshooting the mark.  The beautiful and far away attract your attention and can drain your energy and time.  You are capable of great accomplishments, but this requires self-reliance in all your activities in order to bring about maximum achievement.  At the same time it's important to stay open to others, so you hear their suggestions. Correctly filtered input from others is often the key to finding successful conclusions for your efforts.  An inner charm and magnetism colors your actions.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You have lots of energy that erupts into violence every so often leaving you confused and exhausted.  In industry, you have a taste for secrecy and covert operations.  As a warrior you are more at home leading a guerrilla band in the jungle than as a general leading the parade down Fifth Avenue.  You are at war with yourself.  Your conscience is at odds with your desires and only long-range study and integration of your personal values can lay the foundation for smooth, comfortable, and regular energy. Until this happens, you suffer from having abundant energy that bursts forth violently, then little energy for a spell.  The violence, anger, and disagreements with others stop as well as abnormal needs for secrecy (which just becomes more normal needs for periodic privacy) when you arrive at some degree of self-understanding.

MARS SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR PLUTO

You are a powerfully charged person but a "spontaneous combustion" within you tends to throw off your balance.  You are trying to raise the level of your desires and a certain disparate willfulness can throw you into and out of relationships.   Self control is necessary in order to utilize correctly your abundant energy that tends to emerge as anger.

SECTION VII.  JUPITER - Your Values.

Jupiter is the king of the planets.  He is in charge of the order of creation.  Jupiter shows your values, where you feel confident and in control, and where you feel you have something to teach others.  The sign placement of Jupiter shows your values in life. The house placement of Jupiter shows the area of life you feel luckiest in and the area you receive the most help from other people and from the cosmos.  The aspect patterns to Jupiter show the direct network of good and administrative power in your life.

JUPITER IN ARIES

Your goals relate directly to your own personal drives. Consequently, your values are narrow in scope but you hold them with great enthusiasm.  You are overly optimistic, truly believing in life and in your own abilities to materialize your vision.  This quality allows you to lead others at times on the strength of your personality alone. You are ardent and active with immediate and spontaneous bursts of energy.  You see opportunity in terms of your desire for freedom and self-expression.  You like activity and can become quite interested in travel.  The realm of ideas is highly personalized and colors all that you see and do as you are a pioneer, taking your own perceptions and unwittingly aiming them at the rest of the world. You have complete confidence in yourself and this trait alone can get you into trouble. You need objectivity as to the meaning of your life and your direction in it in order to avoid running into a dead end periodically.  When you have developed a good sense of limits your infectious exuberance inspires others.  You believe most strongly in that which is most immediate, and inevitably this is some attribute or ability lodged deep within you.

Jupiter in 9th house

You are inherently high-minded.  You have an open value system. You are willing to learn from others and expect they will be willing to learn from you.  You benefit through long distance and foreign travel. You plan well for the long run.  Being a visionary, you know how to express yourself in ways that go beyond just the transport of mere information; you always have a point that you wish to impart.  Your communication skills are useful in anything requiring advertising, (maybe even propaganda) for you are the conveyor of images.

Jupiter in 9th house Unafflicted

You inspire others to think big.  You are a good planner. Somehow you have the ability to move on when the current situation becomes stagnant.  Your love of adventure may encourage you to become proficient in some sport or outdoor activity.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect from Jupiter to the Sun showing a deep connection between your values and your ego.  As a consequence of this you have a stronger faith in your beliefs than most people and you are more likely to act on them.  You have the potential for being quite an inspiration for others.  In Section I. (The Sun - Your Ego Structure) there is more commentary on this trait of yours.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have an aspect from Jupiter to the Moon showing an interest in expressing values through your daily life.  What you believe has more impact on what you do than it does for most other people.  The information on this topic in Section III.  (The Moon - Your Personal Life) may be helpful in grasping how you do this.

JUPITER IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You have an underlying self-confidence that is based on your belief that life will give you whatever you want if you are willing to work for it.  You see the reasonableness in the way that things happen and are willing to invest in yourself.  You are very industrious, believing that hard work will bring you progress.  You have a taste for material acquisition but are willing to work for what comes to you.

JUPITER TRINE YOUR SATURN

You see opportunity in ways that enhance your security and places where others only see limitation. A stable foundation in life comes through correct judgment and knowing how to take intelligent risks.  You are fortunate because you have an inner guidance that leads to following well established procedures and principles unconsciously.  You deal with limits and obligations in ways that help you achieve your goals.

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

This life certainly has its ups and downs for you.  Your tendency to exaggerate, overindulge or over-commit yourself gets you in trouble until you adopt the philosophy of life that "you get out of life what you contribute." At this point you stop trying to get something for nothing and your financial picture becomes much more stable.  You get in your own way at times by over-assertion or saying the wrong thing. You can have a bluntness and a vulgarity that creates a negative picture that you may have a hard time overcoming.  Gain control of your own life and the path to higher success is not only swift but fun.

JUPITER SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

Intensity and hard work doesn't always give good results.  When you become compulsive, your problems often grow exponentially rather than just reaching a resolution.  However, there is a side benefit from this expansion.  Your efforts at problem solving bring new items of interest to the surface and you plow through the fields of your daily existence. You learn about life, yourself, and your value system by seeing the kinds of difficulties you attract.  The worst disasters in your life seem to leave you unscathed and this type of luck should give you deep gratitude.

SECTION VIII.  SATURN - Your Obligations.

The planet Saturn shows where you feel restricted.  You feel obligations and fears through Saturn.  Because of your feeling connected with Saturn you are either responsible or neglectful. The sign placement of Saturn shows the basic type of energy connected with your obligations.  The house placement of Saturn shows an area of life that you feel restricted in and work hard to obtain the things that come to you.  The aspects of Saturn show the most direct involvement of other areas of your life with your feelings of responsibility.

SATURN IN SAGITTARIUS

You are motivated by a fear of being restricted or held back. You are independent and ostentatious.  You have a strong need to gain some recognition for your intellectual achievement.  This is hard to accomplish partly because you are really quite cynical and this stops you from getting a really fair hearing at times. Still, you have real interest in philosophical and spiritual questions.  Leadership comes to you naturally in time.  Your growth through time keeps shaping your values which are powered by your positive self-perception.  You grow through failure as much as by success.

Saturn in 4th house

Your family has given you a legacy that makes it hard for you to have more than a very limited horizon.  Your negative expectations can be self fulfilling prophesies which are ultimately based on an inadequate self picture.  You need to overcome worry about your own future.  A deep seated caution in your emotional life prevents you from opening up to others very quickly.  Consequently, you need to move slowly any time that you are making fundamental changes in your security network.

Saturn in 4th house Unafflicted

You learned early in life to become self-reliant.  You spend quiet time by yourself periodically and are able to use your own troubles in a way that builds solid understanding with people in difficult situations. You build on cautious foundations. Progress is a constant balance between hard work and certain knowledge that your aim has to be high, as life can't promise you very much if your expectations are low.

SATURN IN ASPECT THE SUN

You have Saturn in aspect to the Sun showing that you identify deeply with your obligations in life.  This aspect of your nature is explored more deeply in Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

SATURN IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

You have Saturn in aspect to Mercury showing that you have a serious approach to life and a more reserved outlook.  This is discussed in Section IV.  Mercury - Your Mental Life.

SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are creative and have a deep, inward gentleness.  You are able to use existing social structures to further your vision of a better world.  You care about others and are free of malice. You are a builder and have discipline and patience to get to a distant goal.

SATURN TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

Steady, concentrated psychic perceptions of the future blends comfortably and unassumingly with every aspect of your nature. When you follow the bedrock of your own inner perceptions and feelings without any contradictions, success is assured.  You have an ability to be on the cutting edge of any cultural wave. Good dramatic instincts add flavor to your self expression.

SECTION IX.  URANUS - Your Search For Freedom.

The planet Uranus is beyond the orbit of Saturn and can't be seen without the aid of a telescope.  It represents the sky in us, that which transcends the limits of finite life.  Uranus raises the vibration of everything it contacts.  The sign placement of Uranus shows your broadest striving for freedom.  The house placement of Uranus indicates your area of direct unique expression.  The aspects to Uranus indicate the way you express your need for higher consciousness.

URANUS IN ARIES

You are independent.  Your will is strong and you don't accept restrictions easily.  You believe in yourself deeply and are unconcerned by your sudden changes in direction.  You get flashes of insight that you have difficulty sustaining.

Uranus in 8th house

You have a deep interest in the occult and hidden aspect of life. You have the ability to rebuild your life after things go wrong by going into the roots of your own drives and values.  You may have a profound change of values at these moments.  You have unexpected gains and losses as circumstances change rapidly.

Uranus in 8th house Afflicted

Difficult and uncontrollable desires come up for you suddenly and cause a great amount of disruption in your life as they force themselves into expression.  Your mind works in symbols.  Find out what the desires symbolize and eliminate the cause at the roots through analysis or self-analysis.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have Uranus in aspect to the Moon.  This indicates that you have an emotional pattern that expresses your uniqueness.  This is explained in Section III.  The Moon - Your Personal Life.

SECTION X.  NEPTUNE - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.

The planet Neptune has an almost perfectly circular orbit.  It represents the part of our nature that strives for perfection, that looks to some higher ideal.  The planet Neptune rules the ocean and the part of us that is beyond the limits of the shores of personal existence.  The culture moves with the cycles of Neptune and it is the primary indicator of your connection to the culture that you live in. The sign of Neptune shows an ideal that you desire to manifest.  The house placement of Neptune shows the area of your life that you want to express this ideal in.  The aspect patterns of Neptune indicate the most direct connections yet most subtle networking of your personality into the world at large.

NEPTUNE IN LEO

You see societal change coming through people being inspired. You may have an inflated ego or a desire for power but your ideal is to be something important for others.

Neptune in 1st house

You are an illusive and dreamy person, at least in appearance. You create the illusion of beauty.  You are so receptive that others feel you understand them.  You are easy for others to project anything onto. Whatever people wish to see in you, they can.  Don't reinforce an unrealistic picture that others might have.

Neptune in 1st house Unafflicted

Your visionary idealism adds a sensuous charm to your personality.  You tend to see the broader implication of all actions.  You have an interest in cultural and artistic events.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO SATURN

You have an aspect of Neptune to Saturn, showing an interest in bringing about an ideal.  This aspect of your nature is discussed in Section VIII.  Saturn - Your Obligations.

SECTION XI.  PLUTO - Your Need For Fundamental Change.

The planet Pluto represents the dark underground part of you.  It shows your ability to transform the most fundamental properties in your own inner nature.  The sign of Pluto is the way the obsessive, compulsive and committed part of your nature expresses itself.  The house placement of Pluto shows the area of life where you make your most fundamental and most potent changes. The aspects to Pluto show the deepest most unconscious links in your personality structure.

PLUTO IN CANCER

At your best, you are instinctively drawn to some deep new social awareness; this can give you a foundation for genuine transformation and creativity.  You are tenacious.  At your worst, you trade freedom and self-worth for security.  You may have a gnawing fear of some physical deprivation which can haunt you and block real change. Understanding your past can root out barriers and allow you to move into deep transformation.

Pluto in 11th house

You want social change and, consequently, approach people and develop friends based on community issues.  You have a deep effect on all that come into your circle of friends.  You are naturally attracted to people who share the same passion for your ideals.

Pluto in 11th house Unafflicted

You will have the opportunity to see a course you believe in find a medium of wider acceptance.  You are able to blend good things from the past into certain new concepts that you are working on.

SECTION XII.  SUMMATION.

     A.  YOUR UNIQUENESS

Part of your style of being a person is tied to your personal method of adapting to and interacting with other people.  This aspect of your personality shows itself through every aspect of how you deal with the environment.  This method of your being encourages as well as reveals your uniqueness.

YOUR MAJOR PLANETARY ASPECT IS A PARALLEL AND CONTRAPARALLEL.

You are very resourceful.  You always find a deep inner strength with which to take some steps forward.  When the going is difficult, you are still able to build some type of victory or personal reward on anything that happens in your life.  You have a passive ability to endure and wait.  You have an active talent for planning.  Your keyword is Reorganization.

     B.  YOUR EASIEST AREAS.

The following material is an index of things that you have developed as inner resources.  You may take them for granted, but in times of reevaluation and rest this part of your personality can provide you comfort and strength.

Sun in Aries.

The sheer power of your personality is a great aid to you and all your projects.  You are action personified and you get stronger through motion.  Your pioneering spirit gives you self-definition and awareness.  These qualities give substance to your ego structure.

Moon in the Second House.

You have the ability to earn and save based on your solid pattern of habits.  You develop a network of personal self-worth that serves you well.

Venus in Pisces.

A warm and highly personable idealism gives you a deep and multifaceted connection with others.  You have a natural sense for what is important in life.

Jupiter in the Ninth House.

You have a natural adaptive mechanism in life that stems from your ability to draw on things faraway in time and space. Confidence is your secret key.  When you have complete faith in the universe to do the right thing your success is secure.

Uranus in the Eighth House.

You have a habit of facing a dead-end situation and altering it for your benefit.  You have times of forcing deep changes in your personal value system and can affect those around you quite favorably through your changes.

     C.  YOUR MOST PERSISTENT DIFFICULTIES.

This material describes the "cutting edge" of your work on yourself. The thoughts rendered here are meant as further guidelines for growth. You should take difficulties and challenges in the right spirit.  They are always positive indicators as to how you can experience the joy of becoming a better person and more like your REAL SELF.

Afflicted Moon

You have routines in your life that operate as if on remote control. These unconscious habits bring you a harvest that is out of tune with your conscious aim in life.  Before you act, be thorough in your projection of what you can meaningfully expect from your actions.  You will learn in this manner and be able to bring about more positive results from your efforts.

Afflicted Mars

Your desires often get you into trouble.  Rechanneling your energy into something constructive is very difficult.  Your natural tendency is to repress your wants or to trade one extreme, like anger, for another such as lust or greed.  Your energy is still a winning quality and good effort eventually brings good results.  You can learn to redirect your impulses through hard work, patience and consistent attention to results.

Afflicted Uranus

You have a habit of expressing your uniqueness at the wrong moments and in the wrong way.  Unhappiness and a feeling of isolation are the end products of your actions that you were hoping would lead to freedom. True freedom comes through responsibilities, not by escaping them. Develop creative outlets for your energy that will not run counter to your basic good will to others and your true responsibilities follow you naturally.

Mercury in Pisces

You are a dreamer and suffer because your perceptions are so subjective.  You think with your feelings.  This attribute is wonderful if you are content to live your life without analytic skills.  If you wish to study subjects that require focus on detail then you will need practice at separating facts from feelings and preferences.  When this is accomplished, your natural brilliance for large scale thinking emerges.  You have a gentle mind.

Venus in the Eighth House

You find beauty in the bowels of life rather than on the surface. This gives your personality great depth of character but it also leaves you vulnerable to missing the joy others experience in simple pleasures. Expand your outlook and commonize your experience.  Then, your depth will have meaning.

Mars in the Seventh House

You have difficulty with relationships because you become too "bossy". Be less concerned with what others do and practice being more of a self-starter.  Be aware of how you affect others and your energy will function better.

Saturn in the Fourth House

You have to overcome self-limiting fear.  You are very able, but you get in your own way because you have poor expectations for the results of your actions.  Believe in yourself and life, then your fears just become common sense.

     D.  THE GROWTH ASPECTS

The  Growth  aspects  operate  differently  than  other  aspects  in  your  chart.    While  it  is  possible  to  use  them  descriptively,  as  showing  finer  shades  of  meaning  within  the  chart,  we  wish  to  use  them  in  a  different  manner  for  our  purposes.    The  growth  aspects  are  tools  of  self  development.    If  you  apply  attention  to  the  various  qualities  in  your  nature  linked  through  the  growth  aspects,  you  will  see  positive  change  over  time.    These  qualities  generally  do  not  show  quick  effortless  solutions,  but  instead  show  a  path  of  change  requiring  exertion  and  emotional  honesty.  Under  these  circumstances,  the  way  these  aspects  of  your  nature  change  through  time  are  truly  amazing.  The  qualities  mentioned  here  can  be  the  very  mechanisms  to  release  the  highest,  finest  side  of  your  nature.

Venus in Growth Aspect to Neptune

Can you create what you see?  Discipline and practice are necessary in order to share your vision of the higher beauty with others.  Further, openness to others' perception of love is an important part of being able to share your own vision.  Happiness comes through being resilient in the face of disappointment and frustration.  Faith in the truthfulness of your own higher vision is necessary in order to have the patience and persistence to raise your love to an adult level.

Venus Quincunx Neptune

You are suffering at times because you are attracted to inaccurate perceptions of others.  This is based on incorrect appraisals of who you are and where you are going.  You approach the unachievable with naive confidence, then get confused when you aren't able to be complete with your various projects.  This creates an environment where others find you unapproachable and difficult to know.  As you show genuine self-acceptance (including your limitations) your range of love expression increases.

Saturn in Growth aspect to Pluto

There is an austere streak in your nature that you can use for your development.  In order for this quality to be useful to you though, you need to be able to translate the propensities to be frugal, diminutive, and limiting into something that is a productive tool.  When this efficiency driven part of your personality is focused on tactical or technical considerations, this tight knit bundling of energy serves you well.  Still, for you, "small" should never be an end in itself.  In this process of growth you may have to come to terms with the part of your nature that is fearful and the part of you that is fanatical. It may not be obvious to you at first, but this very attribute will force you to develop a deeper grasp of your own psychology as several years of observation go by.

Saturn Quincunx Pluto

Your perfectionist tendencies can serve you well once you come to terms with the way the world is.  You either see the world as being basically incorrect in some aspect, or, you think you understand the world and develop a deep cynicism as you see the suffering and difficulties present in the culture.  In either case, you need to develop a good system for differentiating yourself from the world, recognizing that your perceptions of the world are really a prescription of what you need in order to make your life work better.  When you are able to use your deep discriminating vision as a technique for improving situations without having a judgment or an emotional reaction, you have arrived at the highest use of this talent of yours.

     E.  THE DECLINATIONS

There is another dimension to your astrology chart.  This has to do with planets being the same distance from the celestial equator.  When both planets are on the same side of this plane there are called parallel.  When the planets are the same distance but on opposite sides of the celestial equator they are referred to as being contra-parallel. Both of these aspect activate your ability to organize and reorganize some aspect of your life.

Sun Parallel Jupiter

Over-expanse gets you into trouble but your positive expectations help you gain many rewards in life.  Your cheerful optimistic spirit assists you in bringing any project to a good conclusion. The ability to create more of whatever you have, becomes problematic whenever you have difficulties or troubles as they can also multiply.  Your mental attitude holds the key to your actions, just as your values hold the key to the way your mental life unfolds.

Neptune Parallel Ascendant

Some mystical insight or powerful ideals propel you in life.  The strongly sentimental and visionary side of your nature will demand some expression.  Your personal relationships will be colored by idealizations and projections.  Other people will seem a mystery to you but, relating is always fun and your ability to see people's potential can be a wonderful asset.

Pluto Parallel North Node of the Moon

You grow into your best self by diving into your own depths and struggling with life's fundamental issues.  Your ability to find your way through difficulties swiftly may follow on the heels of long periods of relative stagnation.  This can give a jerky, uneven feeling to your development.

Sun Contra-Parallel Mercury

A background of mental nervousness prompts you to explore and experiment.  There is a vital link between your ability to understand and your sense of self worth.  Understanding can come through reading, thinking, talking, traveling, and meditating.

Moon Contra-Parallel Uranus

If you have consistency in your focus and actions in life (and this is a big if) then you have the facility to help others improve their method of relating emotionally.  You have a propensity for living in an exciting, adventuresome, and creative vision of the world.

Mercury Contra-Parallel Jupiter

You are open to higher thoughts that have a refining influence on your mind and values.  You are captivated with the big picture of things wishing a more positive outcome for your efforts than circumstances support.  You are generally optimistic in your appraisal of life circumstances and you enthusiastically encourages others.  You believe in the power of discussion to assist any difficult situation.

Venus Contra-Parallel Jupiter

Flamboyancy and overreach can give your actions their particular color or hue.  Your attitude is generally upbeat and this gets you on the right path toward a lofty goal regardless of the external circumstances of your life.

Mars Contra-Parallel Neptune

A strong unconscious feeling for something transcendent can lead you to mysticism or to artistic expression.  Moderation of the escapist tendency can give you a very deep insight into the nature of the forgotten aspects of life.  You may suffer from unusual health complaints if you are not honest with your own need to do something to be involved with and assist others.  Be with others and involved in their lives when your social consciousness is surging forth.

Mars Contra-Parallel Ascendant

The truly forceful demeanor that you produce for others may be confidence building which allows others to believe in you.  Also, there may be a reactive ingredient which stems from feeling that others have been very hard on you.  You may have some difficulties having to do with other people's treatment of you.

Saturn Contra-Parallel Pluto

The drive to accomplish much in a short span of time and a general distrust of life comes from feeling that the world is a difficult and very limiting place.  At root, much of this feeling is based on a negative perception about yourself and what you have coming.  You are the sponsor of your own setbacks in life. Progress means to study the past world history and personal psychology in order to move forward in a responsible and effective manner.  Discipline and faith are the necessary ingredients needed to put your life on a positive footing.

Saturn Contra-Parallel North Node of the Moon

A serious, cautious part of your personality is in leadership when you take on new projects.  The ability to plan carefully and to let common sense evaluation guide you gives you an aura of stability.  Fear is an obstacle to quick progress, but properly integrated, gives your work solid practical grounding. Your friendships have good utilitarian value even if they are a bit stiff with a touch of a formal atmosphere.

     F.  YOUR KARMIC DIRECTION

The Moon's North Node is an all encompassing and instructive point of synthesis in the chart; we could easily start or end our analysis with this one single factor.  Because this indicator is so all inclusive it most shows your karmic direction in life. The sign placement of your North node points to your destiny. When your actions, interests, and values are structured by this position, your general sense of personal well being improves. The house placement of the North Node of the Moon indicates or points to an area of life, an arena of experience.  By confronting, even augmenting this arena you can inadvertently improve every aspect of your life.  By dealing with issues connected to the North Node placement in your chart your general character strengthens and refines.

North Node of the Moon in Gemini

Your life experience betters through acquiring new information while being able to let go of past judgments.  Your sense for what is right and proper can stop you from being able to honestly appraise the situations around you.  Poor judgment can come from prejudicial thinking and being too attached to the appearance of things.  An addiction to "higher principle" can give you an excuse for being ineffectual in your daily life and unnecessarily separate you from others.  Let go of "mental ruts" and false pride so you can learn.

North Node of the Moon in Gemini and in the Tenth House

You easily take on responsibility for others while having difficulty forming forward momentum in outer world projects. Advancing your standing in the workplace requires time, energy and judgment.  All are in short supply.  As you open to others emotionally, which is good, your life becomes cluttered, which is bad.  You may need to go through a period of self-involvement and complete detachment from family and home in order to create a new and freer set of patterns in your life.
