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 Rising
You have the majority of your planets on the eastern half (or left-hand side) of your chart showing that you take great pains to be sure that you are free to act as you wish in life. Freedom of movement and expression are important to you. You have a strong feeling that you make your own destiny.
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 Fourth Quadrant
You have the majority of planets in the fourth quadrant showing that you have a fascination with the big picture. You are interested in accomplishing something in the larger world. You wish to serve the community somehow. Career and projects that have an effect on more than your own life become the focus of your activity. You often attract recognition. This may or may not be important to you.
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 an abundance of earth in your chart showing that you are a cautious and thorough person. You build material security in life. If, for any reason, this isn't happening you feel miserable. This can point to a problem of valuing the wrong things in life and chasing empty dreams. Ask yourself how much you really need and let it go at that. You can be an earnest and hard working person if over-acquisitiveness doesn't blind you.
Air
Jupiter is your only air planet. You have 10% of your chart in the air element. When you feel confident you are able to translate a higher ideal and a more inclusive social value into action. Life doesn't always give you these opportunities for staying confident. You see the abstract significance of events in your life, but have difficulty moving from personal experience to this bigger, more significant picture. This can be a stumbling block for you as you alternately try to ignore the reasoning process altogether, then embrace it obsessively. You work harder than most people at being "in tune" with others.
Water
Neptune is your only water planet. You have 10% of your chart in water. Getting in touch with your feelings often requires you to latch on to a larger social expectation of you. This can mean that you don't have honest, direct appraisal of your feelings but live out others' expectations. Hence, developing a meaningful personal life can require some effort on your part. You see this as an area to be improved on and work hard to get in touch with your feelings.
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 only 10% of your chart in the cardinal mode. Jupiter is your only cardinal planet. You are capable of acting on your own and in a new direction when you feel moved by an important value. You are apt to take a position of leadership when you see it as a natural extension of your social station or position in life. This striking out in a new direction is momentary as you prefer to either let others lead or follow well-trod paths that are more familiar to you.
Fixed
A tremendous amount of your chart is in the fixed mode. You have endurance. Whether a course of action is good or bad you are more likely to stay with it than change. The principle of inertia is with you. When you rest, you have real difficulty getting going. When you are in motion, you have real difficulty stopping or even changing directions (even slightly). People find you a loyal friend and a tenacious enemy.
Mutable
You have an abundance of mutability in your chart. You are a thinker and attempt to accommodate a number of circumstances and people in your environment. You may have difficulty choosing a direction and staying with it. Truth has a way of becoming a highly personal subjective factor; consequently, others think of you as not being able to communicate simple truths in a factual way. You are nervous and may need more B-Vitamins in your diet, rest, and meditation in order to be balanced.
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.
VIRGO RISING
You are focused on service to others and have a tendency to idealize anyone you are involved with. You are a good worker and very productive when your eye for detail and criticism don't slow you down to the point of making advancement difficult. Before taking on the particulars of a situation you should clarify your desires and ideals, as well as decide on a path of action and method of implementation; then, your life is productive, happy, and organized. When your feelings about yourself are too insecure you have the bad habit of looking out into life and trying to see what is possible, rather than looking into your self and seeing what you really want. Under these circumstances the details explode in front of your sight in a way that can easily lead you to the belief or feeling that you're beaten before you start. Your picture of yourself and of life are inherently attached to achievement and usefulness. Generally, you do best in life by starting projects small where you can control all the key variables and expand outwardly from there.
Moon Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 1st House and unafflicted.
You are very personable. Others instinctively feel your nurturing qualities, and are attracted to you. You can reach out to the general public and like dealing with lots of people. This quality works together with a general sense of self-acceptance to create a feeling of connection and wholesomeness. In close relationships you are not as warm as others have reason to expect but you do give of yourself.
Mercury Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 12th House and unafflicted.
You have a fluid intellect, a good imagination and great powers of explanation. You have a special knack for spontaneously finding the right word for the occasion. You spin out new ideas and share them with others. You talk to anyone and everyone. Much of your conversation will revolve around yourself and your projects until you learn the art of listening to others. When this is grasped you become an avid learner from all of life. Your mind is so interactive with the environment that you need insulation periodically in order to maintain your equilibrium and perspective.
Mars Trine the Ascendant
You are a vigorous team player and an energetic competitor. You like to win and this is the foundation of the leadership qualities in you. Your idea of a good time is to be in a situation that allows you to express your best. This is an intensely personal issue for you but you are also very good at motivating others to go beyond their mental, physical and emotional limits. Regardless of your situation in life, you excel in whatever you do. This doesn't guarantee success, only progress and accomplishment. Physical exercise is important to you.
Neptune Sextile the Ascendant
You are very imaginative, and can often guess what others are looking to find. You have a chameleon-like quality that knows how to give others what they want. This is at the root of your aesthetic taste and your creative and dramatic ability. You are moved emotionally to get along with others and your psychic skills show you how to do this. You have a wish to transcend your own limits which can place you working in large institutions or find you engaging in escapist activity. The most positive escape is the spiritual path which is a higher accommodation to the ideal, or the arts which is a manifestation of the higher desire for harmony and beauty.
Pluto Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 12th House and unafflicted.
Others don't notice your intense and transformative focus in life, but it is always there and powering you forward. Your intensity and drive will scare others away that you wish to attract, but there is a natural selection here that works for your betterment and stops you from wasting time. Your have a quiet inner stamina that helps you see any project through to completion. Many times you will feel to be at the end of your rope and some deep pool of energy gives you your second wind. You experience the heights and the depths emotionally and not much in between. Because you have a need to be in control of your life you may avoid intimate relationships. This doesn't mean that you are uninterested. You may find a rather strict separation of personal and professional life becomes the way to share of yourself and still maintain your equilibrium. "Real control is self control".
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.
GEMINI MIDHEAVEN
You enjoy work that supplies you with lots of opportunity to express yourself and have love of variety. The truth may be an illusive ingredient and you may struggle to see things "as they are" rather than as you wish them to be.
Moon Square Midheaven
You wish to be known by others and cannot break out of your personal limitations. You wish to remain anonymous at times and at other times become a "household word". In the long run, you get to your goal of being well known and liked for things you admire in yourself. The public arena is a natural operating environment.
Mercury Square Midheaven
You are known for your communication skills. The way that you express yourself is corrected by some authority in your life. You need to fight a tendency to change the externals as a mechanism for relieving an uncomfortable situation. Instead of running away, learn to change yourself. You have something to say, learn how to express it. You need to overcome a tendency to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.
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.
Neptune Quincunx the Midheaven
The vision of culture and your picture of your own contribution to it through career and social station color everything that you do. Correct self appraisal doesn't come easy for you. But, this is required in order to cross the gulf from being an isolated lover of beauty to being a genuine social activist. In the long run you are happiest if you are able to participate in large institutional activities and still have a place to withdraw into your private world.
Pluto Square Midheaven
You can end up in meaningless stalemates with bosses and authority figures. Your cycle of achievement comes to a halt every so often as you struggle to make your will live within the limits of your life. You often compensate for your deep fears by your strength. Your will or inner strength is linked to your ability to endure or suffer. Relearning expression of the will requires some emotional unraveling. This may be a slow process of analysis or self-discovery.
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 Pluto
Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, 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.
Moon Conjunct Mercury
Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life, and IV. MERCURY -Your mental life, as a single unit. This Conjunction colors your unconscious habits and your basic attitude toward life. This is an extremely important ingredient of your identity and represents a primary attribute of your personality.
Moon Conjunct Pluto
Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as a single unit. This Conjunction colors your unconscious habits and your basic attitude toward life. This is an extremely important ingredient of your identity and represents a primary attribute of your personality.
Mercury Conjunct Pluto
Think of Sections IV. MERCURY - Your mental life, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as a single unit. This Conjunction is a central indicator of the way you interact with people and your environment
Jupiter Conjunct Neptune
Think of Sections VII. JUPITER - Your values, and X. NEPTUNE -Your spiritual aspirations and ideals, as one ingredient, both strengthening and subtly influencing each other. Through this effect your aims in life are very lofty. This Conjunction shows a pervasive and encompassing drive in your personality.
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 LEO
You clearly see yourself as the center of your own life. You radiate a natural joy and goodness to life. You have a strong inner dignity and sense of self-respect. You must have some self-expression in life and you will look at any activity as a chance to create. Although you are somewhat theatrical and flamboyant, you inspire others who often get some vicarious enjoyment through watching you. Pay more attention to detail and show more concern for other people's needs and your life automatically becomes more fulfilling.
Sun in 12th house
You are an idealist. You are open to the crosscurrents of society. You need time alone to sort out your own material and to avoid overload. Because you perceive too many options you may have difficulties in getting started on a project, but the "long haul" generally works for you because you often surprise others with your endurance when you are emotionally committed to a course of action.
Sun in 12th house Unafflicted
You are often moved to do things which improve the quality of life in our society. You may enjoy working in some large institution or in a capacity of service. There is a natural rhythm in life of moving in and out of contact with the outer world. Your inner life is rich and will periodically absorb all of your attention.
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 SQUARE YOUR MARS
You are full of energy and passion. Your intensity and power color everything that you do. Planning and focus are very important because your goals switch and your desires are always changing. When you are angry, thoughts of revenge and general hate or avarice drag you into a pattern of destruction. Your energy stays productive when you acknowledge, then harness your desires.
SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER
You are lucky and optimistic. You are frank and direct with people without being hurtful. You are responsible and benevolent and can see how to get things done. You go through several changes in life which leave you in improved circumstances.
SUN SEXTILE YOUR JUPITER
Self-esteem abounds and you are able to help others primarily through example. Because you are comfortable and confident with yourself, you assume an aura of authority. Since others recognize this optimistic outlook in you, and because you have a tendency to instill confidence, you rise in life.
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 CONJUNCT PLUTO
You have a powerful will and a dogmatic determination to get to your goal. There is a lonely quality to you that emerges from a self-imposed insulation (or isolation). Few people ever really get to know you in a very personal way. Still you find this life very productive. You keep approaching your selected goals whether it takes years, decades or even millenniums. Even you don't see how committed you are to the long-range goals until you carefully evaluate the path of decision-making in your life. There is a pioneering and self-confident aura about you that works itself out through self-reform.
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 VIRGO
You are analytical, critical and technical. You have a habit of getting into the "nuts and bolts" of a job, right away. You know how to make yourself useful. You like to render service and are good with detail. In matters of the heart you can be cold and aloof with a tendency to hold yourself back. When things don't work out for you, try not to blame anyone else. Next, try not to even blame yourself. You are practical and know how to get things done. All the industriousness in the world can't bring you happiness though. You must relax to love.
Moon in 1st house
You experience the world through your emotions. You enjoy interactions with people and consequently may find life most enjoyable when you have an opportunity for lots of quick interchanges with the general public.
Moon in 1st house Unafflicted
You have social ease with the public. You are emotionally open and this conveys an image to others that you are understanding and empathetic. You do well handling lots of details and situations which require quick and versatile responses.
MOON CONJUNCT MERCURY
You have an agile mind and quick perception with good descriptive powers. You seem to know what to say to people and communicate with a pleasant familiar tone. You get overly nervous at times and can run in mental circles without breaking through to new insights. You are kind and interested in people and life in general. Learn to study and listen to others so you don't get stuck in a limited perspective of knowing a great deal about your domain and nothing more.
MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR MARS
You are an ardent lover and an enthusiastic lover of life. You are brave and prepared to fight for a point of view. Your self-assertiveness and assertion can thrust you into a position of emotional leadership. You are a builder and a doer.
MOON TRINE YOUR MARS
Strong, driving passions move you toward your goals. You have very directed habits leading you forward in life. Your emotions are so focused toward what you want that you let personal happiness depend on accomplishment.
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 SEMI-SQUARE YOUR JUPITER
Emotionally enthusiastic, you easily inspire others. You can however, also easily get ahead of yourself, leading people "down the primrose path" without sufficient supplies for the journey. You are lucky and abundant, but without judgment and discipline, you can be in a terrible mess many times. Always harness your enthusiasm to your examination of the facts and your judgment will be better.
MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN
You are outwardly successful in life even though you have to go through some inner pain in your personal life. Your greatest virtue is that you do learn from your mistakes. You correct your own actions and go on. Your life may have several low points while you are reorganizing after a setback. You will be hard-pressed to sort out your true responsibilities and may find the day to day planning of your time to be quite challenging.
MOON SQUARE YOUR SATURN
You can be very accomplished in your career because you have the ability to face your own mistakes honesty and without excuse. You are hard on yourself which adds to your feeling of being quite lonely. Finding emotional happiness is only possible by becoming open with people and by expecting the same from them. You want security and accomplishment in life. You can and do achieve this, but try not to let worldly success come at the expense of closeness and acceptance from others. These two values (public versus personal) get in each other's way. You can have both, but patience, understanding, and hard work are necessary. Success is built on past mistakes, analysis, and strong personal drive.
MOON CONJUNCT PLUTO
Your emotions guide your life and operate at the extremes running the gambit from boiling to frigid. You are either on or off. Handling your feelings may well be the key to this life for you. You are basically curious about everything. When you find your life dull and boring, it is because you have the blinders on. Reach into your depths and you will find hidden fears and responses to past hurts have closed you off from life. Let your past die and you are free once more. When you direct your powers of perception back towards the outer world, you find that you are capable of working in the greatest of abstract realms. You are naturally good with anything involving symbols, mysteries, secrets and research.
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 VIRGO
Your mind is logical, mathematical and scientific. You are easily educated. You are procedure-oriented. You express yourself systematically and have a businesslike air around you. You know how to narrow the topic of discussion so as to be able to do justice to it. You are good with detail and know how to focus on the most practical aspect of all that comes up. You have a well-ordered and systematic response at times when it is necessary to adjust to changing circumstances. Try to be more confident so that you can move in a larger realm. So often, a self-imposed limitation has you missing "the forest for the trees".
Mercury in 12th house
Your mind is idealistic and very subtle. You think in symbols and often see the implications of objects and actions rather than the things themselves. You are open and psychically receptive and should have relatively undisturbed periods of insulation. Contemplation and meditation can be natural adaptational mechanisms for you. You may be a slow learner early in life until you learn how to selectively filter your observations.
Mercury in 12th house Unafflicted
Your mind may be slow and contemplative but you do perceive certain higher truths in life - are you able to communicate them to others? Patience, persistence and discipline help you make order out of your own unconscious mind. You are a good confidant because you know the value of keeping a secret.
MERCURY IN ASPECT TO THE MOON
This indicates that you have a very personal, feeling mind. You have a very close personal use for your mental life. The details of this connection were discussed in Section III. The Moon -Your personal life.
MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE
You see the future in everything that you do. You aspire to some long range goal or value. This may surface in a spiritual longing or in an artistic pursuit. You have talent for creating beauty and a natural eye for what looks nice. You do well in any career that engages your ability for aesthetic design. You have powerful and often quite accurate premonitions. Learn to work with and integrate your psychic perceptions.
MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR NEPTUNE
Compassionate and psychologically attuned to another higher dimension, you communicate to others in picture imagery. You are an idealist and have an ability to communicate your special ideal to others.
MERCURY CONJUNCT PLUTO
You have a powerful and stubborn mind. You are a great researcher and a good detective. This doesn't always help in your personal life. Others may find you too suspicious, too challenging, or too secretive. You are always mulling things over inside of yourself. You live in a sea of mental symbolism. You respond to implications and inferences rather than to people, circumstances and events. You have a special knack for mathematics, symbolic logic, computers, biology, and meditation. At times your mind will overload and you seem to do a reversal, overlooking the simplest details that others take for granted. Get rest and learn when to stop and start.
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 LEO
You are an openhearted lover. You are creative and demonstrative. You are a lover of pleasure and luxury and want people to think well of you. You have a flair for the dramatic. You inspire others to act because they sense the genuine wholehearted approach in you, which is lurking behind your continuous pose. You seek inner harmony through some dramatic or creative self-expression. When you warm up to someone, the relationship becomes an outlet for the artist in you. You are very generous and need to be more discriminating as to where to give and when. A noblesse oblige attitude and outlook colors the way you pour out love, affection, and material help onto others.
Venus in 11th house
You have a love of friendships and social life. You value the ideal of brotherhood. You are affectionate and experience much joy through marriage. Your friends mirror your ideal of cultural and artistic interests.
Venus in 11th house Afflicted
You may suffer through incorrectly appraising your worth and have unrealistic expectations as to how much you should earn from your career. This may breed sloppy work habits and lazy, careless attitudes towards your responsibilities. Be honest with yourself and get help from outside to make better self-appraisals.
VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER
You have extravagant taste and certain primitive vanities that leave you vulnerable to being manipulated and used by others. You have difficulties in telling who your real friends are. Money and good times come to you but they tend to be unstable. Your romantic life is very unsettling even though very interesting. Overindulgence gets you into trouble more than once but for all your flaws people basically like you so you stay "people rich" even when you are "dollar poor". Money comes and goes in great quantities and when you learn to save you have security.
VENUS SQUARE YOUR JUPITER
You like money and adornments. You have good taste, but, sometimes it's too good. You can get into trouble through overindulgence; staying on a budget is almost impossible for you. You are vain and others manipulate you through your own bloated picture of yourself. An honest self-appraisal and some reasonable restraint is the way to guaranty that your love of life, people, and nice things don't get you into trouble. Good luck comes to you, don't throw it away.
VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE
You are easily led by your feelings. You are an idealist and a sensitive soul that is having a tough time getting your values to manifest. People take advantage of you at times because you empathize with others' pain. You have artistic talent but this is not meant to be a life as an artist. Consequently, you will have difficulties in youth getting reinforced for your aesthetic efforts. Later in life you will be a patron of the arts. Your artistic sentiments will come out and into full bloom in the realm of people. It takes you a long time to discover who is reliable and who isn't because you would rather believe in the inherent goodness of each person. You somehow expect that every person will have the same value system and perspective as you.
VENUS SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE
You get fooled by others easily as you are naive and a dreamer. Although you wish the best of yourself and of life, you get off on the wrong foot at the practical level. You have artistic talent but it doesn't develop along expressive lines. First, your artistic inclinations direct you toward understanding people. When you are successful here your underlying self expression finds some aesthetic manifestation.
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 TAURUS
Your desires are earthy and express themselves through a deeply entrenched passive/aggressive spirit. You generally get what you want but your method of getting it is to be practical and persistent. You are determined to reach your goal. You are patient and self-indulgent.
Mars in 9th house
Your energetic mind and fiercely competitive nature can be a powerful symbol of the free spirit. You have a love of change and personal initiative. You have good promotional instincts.
Mars in 9th house Unafflicted
You have good interactions with foreigners and may be very inspired to spend time in foreign countries. You seem to benefit from participation in outdoor sports.
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 URANUS
You have quite a temper and your anger will be a stumbling block in life until you have handled it. You hate being trapped and act quite selfishly when cornered. This is overcome when you corral your emotional energy and find some peace of mind. Three things aid in this process. One, you need physical exercise every day in order to feel emotionally balanced and in good health. This is a release for your nervous energy. Two, you need to come to terms with the nature of your desires. Study your own nature to see what motivates you. This allows you to not blame others for your emotions or the situations you have gotten into. Three, develop a long range view of change that symbolizes freedom to you. You are a powerful innovator and just need to re-channel your energy so that you don't have to create and experience so much disharmony.
MARS SQUARE YOUR URANUS
Angry, feisty, and combative, you make your way in life through spontaneously striking out at obstacles. You anger others who could help you. It isn't that others just misjudge your actions (which they do) but, people perceive an inherently selfish side of the way you make choices. Learn to control your emotions and thereby your energy.
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 LIBRA
You value everything and have great ability to see usefulness in everything and everyone. You are genial, social and a great host because you are "in tune" with what goes on in others. You value people. You are just, balanced and look for sincerity and idealism as part of the higher vision of truth. You look for opportunities with others and feel that you naturally belong in partnership. You feel that you have something to teach others about relating as an equal. You are kind and sympathetic to others and feel that their concerns are interesting and worthy of your attention. Your sense of justice and appropriate balance gives you a natural talent in art, mechanics, architecture, law, politics, teaching, mathematics, drama and hundreds of other fields involving proportion and symmetry. You are a master at being able to infer the whole from seeing a small portion of an object, idea, ideal, or picture. You see opportunity everywhere because you see potential everywhere based on your ability to extrapolate and infer. Your higher vision of truth is constantly relating ideas to ideas, people to people, and people to ideas. This imaginative quality of yours is the source of great talent, great luck, and great vision. When you learn to focus this talent toward a specific goal, this life becomes very productive. Without focus you still have charm and graciousness that helps you make your way in life.
Jupiter in 2nd house
You feel optimistic and confident about money. You anticipate that material good will come your way. Your optimism may translate into a philosophy of abundance as you get older.
Jupiter in 2nd house Unafflicted
You get away with things that no one else seems to be able to do with the material world. You are able to create your own reality. Money keeps coming; even when you are careless with it (which is often) or extravagant (which is not infrequent) you are able to postpone disaster. You have never been flat broke! You never will be. Your feeling of self worth and natural abundance protect you. You are worth a lot and this knowledge keeps a flow in your life even when you aren't doing much.
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 IN ASPECT TO VENUS
You have an aspect of Jupiter to Venus. This indicates that you expect the positive to happen. Your life values easily adjust to your taste, love nature and your sense for the beautiful. This creates some feeling of abundance for you. Your values are in tune with your affection. You may find the information in Section V. (Venus - Your Love Nature) useful in understanding this process.
JUPITER CONJUNCT NEPTUNE
You have great promise for both material and emotional happiness in life. You are a dreamer and an idealist. You come into money at some time in life. Stay open to the possibility without going in search of luck and it will find you. You love people, art and anything that elevates the human spirit. Guard against excess and extravagance and life is much simpler.
JUPITER IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO
You have natural leadership qualities, insight into social and spiritual needs and a sense of humor that stops you from taking yourself or the world too seriously. You have the ability to teach others because you emit a certain magnetic charge on all that you say and it stays with people. But, more important than your skill at disseminating information is your ability to find and go directly to any situation that will help you learn and grow. You are on a quick track in this life and have determined to work on improving the attributes of your personality that need development the most. You will have material abundance in this life but it may have little importance to you once attained since you are really looking for freedom, and the material abundance only brings you more worldly responsibilities.
JUPITER SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO
You see opportunity and short cuts in very perplexing and seemingly unsolvable difficulties. Consequently, you are a good "troubleshooter" possessing great potential and technical expertise. With a solid supporting temperament and sufficient energy you will accomplish a great deal. Without these things you still have unfailing and uncanny luck stemming from good instincts and perceptive insights. You are able to complete projects with a polish and diplomacy that amazes others.
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 THE MOON
You have Saturn in aspect to the Moon showing a close relationship between your upbringing and your emotional outlook. This connection is explored in its essence in Section III. The Moon - Your Personal Life.
SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS
You have a balance respect for the new innovative insights (that are always occurring to you), for what empirically works, and the traditional approaches to which we still have attachments. This can give you an air of diplomacy and stoicism. You know how to get things done and have some patience with circumstances in the world.
SATURN TRINE YOUR URANUS
Good organizational skills and diplomacy leads you toward continuous progress. Because you have inherent respect for tradition, you build your future on firm foundations. You experience more freedom as you get older.
SATURN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE
You are engaged in one of life's deep struggles. Your higher and lower selves fight for control of your actions. You are not generally able to secure steady forward motion along a progressive path until you willfully and consciously renounce everything that gets in the way of your highest ideal. This is not easy and will require many attempts before success comes about. Personal progress is sure though, as soon as you see your higher ideals as a direct extension of universal principles to advance for the entire society.
SATURN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE
Your ideals are slightly out of step with the reality of the situation. You have a tendency to procrastinate. You see an ideal that you can't seem to materialize. A lack of completion on some projects can really be hiding an inflated picture of yourself. Inactivity and self delaying can stop you from achieving your goals. You need constant self prodding to get to your goals.
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 LEO
You have an urge to express your creativity. You throw yourself totally into what you do. There is a sense of self importance that you could always buy into, but you are really looking for some higher identity.
Uranus in 12th house
You are seldom at rest. Your mind seems to always be churning. You may find it more difficult to relax than most. You have a deep interest in the occult and metaphysical topics which have a bearing on all humanity. You are highly intuitive and your insights are not passive, but spawn you to action.
Uranus in 12th house Unafflicted
You experience genuine self-transcendence in service to others because you can completely forget yourself and open up to the world. Others may not be aware of how profoundly driven you are by the urge to obtain personal freedom. This is because your ideals are linked to your vision of what would be good for all society.
URANUS IN ASPECT TO MARS
You have Mars in aspect to Uranus which means you are attempting to raise the vibration of your desire nature during the course of this life. Exactly how that works out in the day to day world is shown by Section VI. Mars - Your Energy.
URANUS IN ASPECT TO SATURN
You have Uranus in aspect with your Saturn. This indicates that you are attempting to accommodate the urge for security and the urge for freedom. More detail on this blending is in Section VIII. Saturn -Your Obligations.
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 SCORPIO
You have powerful and unconscious impulses for sensation. You wish most of all to keep a social ideal alive through emotional intensity. You struggle to work out your secret desires.
Neptune in 3rd house
Your mind is very impressionable and very idealistic. You are imaginative and good at seeing all sides of a question. You empathize well with others. You have a propensity for getting so swept up in the big picture that you don't always see the important details of the immediate situation.
Neptune in 3rd house Unafflicted
You are very creative and communicative. You have the ability to make others feel at ease. You are impressionable but you are blessed with the ability to communicate a higher vision of the truth. Be patient with yourself and others so that the finer side of this aspect of your nature can emerge.
NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO MERCURY
You have an aspect of Neptune to your Mercury showing a deep vision of the truth and some psychic awareness. This perception of yours is discussed in some detail in Section IV. Mercury -Your Mental Life.
NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO VENUS
You have Neptune in aspect to Venus. This indicates that you are very artistic by inclination and idealistic in love. This pattern is described in Section V. Venus - Your Love Nature.
NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO JUPITER
You have an aspect of Neptune to Jupiter. This indicates that you have a lofty vision of the possible in life and that you attract good things by this expectation. How this works out for you is shown by Section VII. Jupiter - Your Obligations.
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.
NEPTUNE IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO
You are fundamentally an idealist. You would like to see change come about in a way that doesn't destroy the existing social order. You believe in transition and transformation as saner and kinder principles of social change than revolutionary upheaval.
NEPTUNE SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO
Your higher ideals are the continuous recipient of forceful energy for change. Your long range perspective (even though this may at times be unconscious) is always toward your ideals winning out through deep self transformation.
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 VIRGO
At best, you have critical powers to discriminate between that which works and that which doesn't. There is a striving for perfection at the core of your being that can narrow your horizons so far that you focus too much on basic issues connected with your own life. At worst, you are so critical that you slow down everyone's effectiveness. Patience and hard work are required in order to complete your personal transformations.
Pluto in 12th house
You are driven to really understand life. You have such powerful drives, though, that you will periodically burn out. You are always on the borderline between dark and light. You feel capable of anything good or bad. This infinite expanse at the unconscious level gives you an experience of having a vacuum inside of you. This creates a focused and powerful attraction point for people, experiences, ideas and emotions. This is why so many peculiar things happen to you and why you periodically seem to go numb.
Pluto in 12th house Unafflicted
You have deep inner strength as your emotions are profoundly linked to the river of life. Your imagination is focused through the creative instinct of the mind. This means that when you think about something long enough, it happens. Make sure you know what you want.
PLUTO IN ASPECT TO THE SUN
You have an aspect from Pluto to your Sun showing that much of your ego stays submerged and that you have a deep wellspring of inner forces to call upon. This is described in Section II. The Sun - Your Ego Structure.
PLUTO IN ASPECT TO THE MOON
You have an aspect of Pluto to the Moon. You have a deep connection to your mother. The nurturing side of your personality is being transformed during this life. The details of this are indicated in Section III. The Moon - Your Personal Life.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO NEPTUNE
You have an aspect of Pluto to Neptune which shows your involvement in a large cultural process. This involvement is described in Section X. Neptune - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.
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 CONJUNCTION.
You concentrate a lot of your energy and attention in a few areas of interest. You are intense. Your preferred style of dealing with a difficulty is to either ignore it or to focus on it completely and wholeheartedly. An item of experience or a person will either have your complete attention or none of it. You have great depth of interest in a few areas. You are happiest and most productive if you find the physical, emotional, and intellectual environments that you function in best early in life and stick fairly close to them. Your keyword is focus.
YOU HAVE NO PLANETARY OPPOSITIONS.
You are great at being able to manifest the direction that you choose for yourself in life. This doesn't mean that decisions come easy for you or that you are always successful in achieving your goals, just that you are able to get your life functioning in the way that you would like. You are fast to learn that power and growth come to you by accepting responsibility for yourself and your life.
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.
Well-Aspected Mercury.
You have good mental habits that aid you in seeing solutions to difficulties as they emerge. You are good at locating alternatives when your forward progress is stopped.
Well-Aspected Pluto.
Your ability to be thorough and absolutely no-nonsense when it comes to reorienting yourself in a time of trouble is especially helpful. Your sense of timing is usually accurate. You can turn a delicate project into an assured success by being 100% behind it.
Sun in Leo.
The strength and surety of your ego structure is a tremendous personal asset. Your ability to naturally and immediately focus all your attention on your own self is a help in everything you do.
Mercury in Virgo.
You have the ability to make distinctions and to enumerate possible lines of action without worrying about the amount of details generated; for you are mentally active, thorough, and practical. You have an instinct for locating very solid applications for your ideas. You move forward with satisfaction any time you seek circumstances that favor your ability to think in concrete, practical terms.
Pluto in the Twelfth House.
You have deep intuitions that point the way to fundamental change. Something deep within keeps prompting you to transform some aspect of your nature. At this level of self analysis, faith, patience and drive blend together in a way that insures steady progress. Because of this, you are able to go through intricate transitions with ease.
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 Venus
You sell yourself short in love. You have great difficulty getting your true emotional intentions to the surface and self-expression can be awkward, overly self-conscious, or ineffective in achieving your heart's desire. The key to personal development in love and interpersonal expression lays in setting your emotional priorities. This leads to less conflict and to the experience of more satisfaction.
Mercury in the Twelfth House
You have the ability to perceive the larger picture of the culture but have difficulty interacting with it in a way that is helpful. You need to spend more time on applications and less time on theory in order to have an effective mental life.
Mars in Taurus
You are the original "stick in the mud". You are a great accumulator and a great builder, but your energy stays trapped most of the time. When you learn to act more quickly on your most basic impulses, your life improves.
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.
Uranus in Leo
Your urge for freedom gets thwarted by your need for self expression. You can't build a bigger picture of yourself and overcome personal limitations simultaneously. As your sense of personal identity reaches toward a larger picture, the impulse for creativity within you can be a tremendous help.
Pluto in Virgo
You suffer in the process of self-transformation because you have difficulty in making the decision to change yourself rather than changing circumstances in your life. Get more basic, change your attitudes and habits and life becomes much lighter.
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.
Moon in Growth Aspect to Uranus
A certain underlying erratic action can prevent you from being as productive with your energy as you would like. You will need to develop meaningful outlets for your nervous temperament while learning to integrate the spontaneous side of your nature in a positive way with the more pensive and more traditional sides of your personality.
Moon Semi-Sextile Uranus
Your self picture may not include the more dramatically innovative thrust that emerges periodically from your unconscious mind. There is a certain panache or "twist" that you place on your actions, sometimes at the last minute. Your uniqueness and sense of individuality finds expression in this way. Through focusing on this process you are able to stabilize its function and have it be more useful in your life.
Venus in Growth Aspect to Pluto
The compulsive and demanding side of your love nature emerges every so often, but is difficult to see as it is. There is a secretive and concealing side of your personality that stays aloof. When you are caught in painful situations where you need commitment to achieve happiness and you are resisting the next step, then, this is the time to look at, acknowledge, then transform the darker side of your love nature.
Venus Semi-Sextile Pluto
Lack of continuity can be the single most important difficulty in having a satisfying love life. When things are going smoothly you have a subtle way of asking for more - until the answer is no - then you withdraw your energy and attention. Learn to be honest with yourself as to what you really want. Then, your taste can change profoundly for the better and forever.
Mars in Growth Aspect to Saturn
Nagging personal insecurities can lead you into bad, even self-defeating stances with others. Your troubles come to you through a twofold process. First, misperceiving limitation, then, reacting to those imaginary limits. Your underlying frustrations lighten up when you recognize that you need a more correct measurement of what you are capable of achieving. This requires letting other people give you a judgment of your talents and skills. Patience and endurance eventually give you better use of your energy.
Mars Quincunx Saturn
Your sense that only you can do something right is lodged in your imbalanced self picture. Too much work and too little spectrum of relating leaves you feeling slightly victimized by life. You create your own limits. Slowing down and quieting down helps you see this. You need a better sense of time, then you achieve better results with less effort. You can do this as soon as you are more balanced in your outlook and your judgment works in a less comparative mode.
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 Mars
You have a good inner drive and great recuperative powers. Your immune system works very well. You are driven by an undertone of anger much of the time. This can create rash and aggressive behavior. Getting to the root and understanding your drives helps free and strengthen your energy.
Venus Parallel Midheaven
A slavish devotion to the aesthetic particulars of your home and environment can lead you to develop a deep sense of culture and taste. The understanding of how things can be at their best can give you difficulties in coming to terms with less than satisfactory surroundings in your personal space. This carries over into your professional life and you will have a deep desire to see your aesthetic nature contribute to your career path.
Jupiter Parallel North Node of the Moon
Your personal growth is dependant on your ability to think optimistically and creatively in every situation. Other people are in your life to assist you and when you see this as a philosophic principle and embrace it honestly, a lightness and joy colors the landscape along your life path.
Pluto Parallel Midheaven
There is a strong psychological twist to the way you deal with other people in the area of career. Some irrational fears of others may prompt you to avoid deeper interactions as these can lead to feelings of emotional vulnerability. You have a dissatisfaction with your position in life that prompts you to focus your energy on career and to keep trying to transform yourself in your professional role.
Jupiter Contra-Parallel Ascendant
You have an innate ability to get the best out of other people and a deep inner resource which tends to believe in others. The optimistic part of your approach to life and the lucky self protection that you experience gives you a bright, attractive manner in all problem solving. Faith in yourself and in life gives you a feeling that you can get what you need and don't have. This alone improves your life in the long run.
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 Midheaven
Fear and attraction can affect your relationship with home and family. You struggle harder than most to feel safe. At the same time this very ingredient that can causes difficulties in your personal life gives you the kind of caution and personal honesty that allows you to build gains on a very firm foundation.
North Node of the Moon Contra-Parallel Ascendant
Your relationships to other people feed your soul. The exact manner and style of your personal interactions need to be regular and regulated in order for you to feel energized. You have some patterns from the past that you will need to relinquish when you wish to change your way of dealing with people. Your frozen persona serves you well under most circumstances; when it does, this is an important invitation to change.
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 Libra
Learn to listen to others before you draw conclusions and act. You have your vision colored by your own desires. Seeing that there are at least two sides to every issue, helps you get a well rounded picture of life. Diplomacy can help any dealings with others, but, only if it is based on real concern for the feelings and needs of others. You need to include others and their ideas, opinions, preferences, and wishes if your own life is to improve.
North Node of the Moon in Libra and in the Second House
You suffer from being too closed off from others at the lighter levels of interaction. Learn to distrust deep cravings that unbalance you or thoughts that make you an exception to all the rules. Courtesy shown to others increases your self worth and security in life.
