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 30% of your chart in the fire element.  This fire supplies you with great energy for your own personal projects. Still, you suffer if the projects that you select are too big. You need quick victories to keep from losing heart, and to keep believing in yourself.  The magic ingredient is believing in yourself.  When you forget this, your life produces much frustration; you end up driven by duty more than desire. The trick to working with your fire element is to design the placement of your energy so that you get sufficient positive reinforcement, enabling you to keep reinvesting in your own projects.

Earth

Since Mars the only planet you have in an earth sign, just 10% of your chart in influenced by the earth element.  Earth is the controlling element for how your energy works.  You struggle very hard to be practical and thorough in life.  Other people are more concerned with results than you are.  You experience frustrations because the material circumstances of your world don't support your picture of what you want.  This changes as you focus on the fundamental building blocks of your future.  To make progress on your path to success you are forced to concentrate exclusively on the results of your efforts.

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

You have an abundance of water in your chart.  You are very emotional and quite empathetic.  You feel others' pain so deeply, you can be moved off the path from your own goals unless you develop a strong sense of self-definition so as to separate out your own needs from those of others.  You need something to do in life that gives full ventilation to your feelings.  Your sentimental and emotionally potent approach to life polarizes people who will either appreciate you for this trait or be repulsed because of it.  You tend to separate people, in your mind, into those that belong and those that don't.  You find any habit, good or bad, very difficult to change.

          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 30% of your chart in the cardinal mode showing you have a dynamism within you that prefers to act according to your own perceptions rather than someone else's.  You are action-oriented, but you easily follow others' lead if they are going in a direction that you like.

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

Adjusting to circumstances that you cannot control or ignore is quite difficult.  When you do make this type of adjustment, it is your urge for freedom that powers the accommodation.  Hopefully, you are able to make these changes quickly and thoroughly because they are not easy.

     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.

                              LIBRA RISING

You assert a tremendous amount of energy (although apparently effortlessly) trying to be what you feel others expect you to be. This endows your personality with a certain graciousness that others can easily appreciate.  When a controversy emerges around you,  you will exert yourself to achieve harmony in the environment as well as amongst people.  You are the diplomat.  On the other hand, you may get a reputation for being "two faced" or superficial unless you make the effort to get your own position clear.  You can't be a real peacemaker without some "backbone". Make sure you get time by yourself every  so often so you can judge what needs to happen in your own life free from others' influence.   Don't try to please everyone and your life is easier and more honest.  You are a people person and have a knack for being the gracious host and the grateful guest.  Your physical vitality ebbs and flows.  Spend time learning your own rhythms so that your efforts flow in their most productive manner.

Sun Sextile the Ascendant

You are very creative and instill a sense of confidence in those around you.  This gives you luck with people and you usually accomplish your goals.  Your skills with people create opportunities for you to learn about yourself and about life. This is your formula for success.  Your self acceptance and positive mindset unconsciously expresses itself to people conveying a feeling of confidence and competency.  Your natural good feeling for your self allows you to put your positive attributes together in one place and express them.

Moon Square the Ascendant

You express your feelings in a way that can lead to misunderstandings and arguments.  Some of the misunderstanding comes from communication difficulties and some of it comes from being at odds with others emotionally.  Your personal life can improve when you make allowances for emotional differences between people in your community of family, friends, and lovers. You make your mark on the public consciousness, but your conflict between what you are doing and what you think you are doing stops this from being consistently positive.  You have conflicting needs.  In order to move forward, you must be free to act, unencumbered by other people's judgments. You need to be connected to the thinking of those around you in order to see accurately where you are going.  This conflict is real but resolvable through emotional balance and practice.  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 Sextile the Ascendant

You are animated and have a knack for getting your thoughts across to others.  Traveling and movement can be just as much a path to knowledge as study.  The highway of life for you is interesting and communicating your findings to others is part of the excitement.

Venus Square the Ascendant

Art and beauty are important to you.  These ingredients will be important to many people that you find as significant in your life. Still, it is easy for you to find yourself in an adversarial position with others as you will often disagree over matters of taste and style. Many lessons in life are learned as you are exposed to people with different tastes than your own. Your opportunities to grow are massive if you keep reaching for a higher synthesis.

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.

Pluto Square the Ascendant

Things don't always go as planned.  Years of work can go down the drain in an emotional fit when the world doesn't live up to your expectations.  You have great amounts of emotional energy and fortitude.  You come into your own in life when this energy is controlled and directed in an intelligent manner.   A certain vindictive streak does you harm and stops others from getting close to you until it is recognized and dealt with.

          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.

                            CANCER MIDHEAVEN

You are personable in your way of administering authority.  You enjoy being in touch with all the details of the things you are responsible for in life.  Consequently, you may not want to expand to your full potential but instead may stay in more narrow guidelines.

Moon Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and afflicted.

You have a powerful combination of emotions and interests.  You have the ability to inspire others but you have some difficulty in getting your ideas across to others in a way that gives you credibility.  You change interests, values, and points of view at inconvenient moments. You are known and well liked without being able to instill confidence. As you learn to express your feelings in a positive way, others come to trust you more.

Mercury Semi-Sextile the Midheaven

A certain nervousness and sense of adventure can have you switching techniques or arenas of operation so often that tasks remain undone. Clarity of purpose and patience bring you long range success in life. You have a way with words and can move others when your mind is clearly fixed on a goal and method for its achievement.

Venus Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You like people and they like you.  You have luck in life that aids you in acquiring many beautiful things which you have an attraction  for. You have a love of foreign places and contact with people from different cultures is one of your mechanisms for expanding your knowledge and satisfying your curiosity.

Saturn Trine Midheaven

You prefer to do things the tried and true way.  You have a conservative streak in you that will carry you to a position of trust, respect and authority.  Your consistency, reliability and conscientiousness puts you in a position of responsibility.  You have good management skills.

Pluto Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You have a strong need for being in control of your life and a deep and powerful drive to get to your final destination.  You have an unconscious drive to be in far away places and this can have your career projects expanding beyond the point where it is easy to get closure.  You understand the psychology that goes into other people's decision making.  This gives you an added advantage in any negotiations in life.

     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 Mercury

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and IV. MERCURY -Your mental life, 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 Venus

Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life, and V. VENUS -Your love nature, 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 Neptune

Think of Sections IV. MERCURY - Your mental life, and X. NEPTUNE - Your spiritual aspirations and ideals, as a single unit.  This Conjunction is a central indicator of the way you interact with people and your environment

Venus Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections V. VENUS - Your love nature, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as a single unit.  This Conjunction represents a central theme in the formation of your values.  An underlying intensity is present that conveys power on all that you get involved with.

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 10th house

You are achievement oriented.  You have a natural expectation that positions of power, authority and responsibility should come to you. You receive help in your climb in life from people further up the hill. You will be well known in your immediate circle and that may transport out to a larger world picture.

Sun in 10th house Afflicted

Your reach is usually beyond your grasp.  You achieve and then tumble. Avoid shortcuts and "backroom deals" that won't work when they become public.  What you do tends to become visible, so you need to stay within public taste.

SUN CONJUNCT MERCURY

You have a very close alignment between your mental skills and your ego.  This can give you great depth of perception and great resolve. You need to be careful that you don't become dogmatic or develop "tunnel vision".  When you become focused on one thing for a long time, you may suffer from nervous exhaustion.  Learn to take breaks without losing your initiative.

SUN SEMI-SEXTILE VENUS

You have a charm, a beauty and an inclination to do good.  You need to make sure that you don't become lazy and give up striving for the good after suffering some disappointments in life.  The desire to nurture and your fascination with your own receptive qualities can put you in touch with many different types of people in life.  Learn discrimination and your life is much more pleasant.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

Your restrictions are largely self-created.  You find your fears and your ego drives getting in each other's way.  The result can be that you are overly cautious.  Self-control can be so overdone that you become difficult to live with or work with.  A defeatist attitude can grow out of being too conservative.  Strive to be responsible and still see the world in a positive light.  As you become more trusting you overcome your propensity to back ill-conceived plans that stem from pessimism and desperation.

SUN SQUARE YOUR SATURN

You are a loner by nature.  You can be disciplined but your seriousness and reserve can easily turn into depression.  You are most successful when you put the past, with its hurts and disappointments, behind you. Your skills, drives, and instincts work toward your advantage when you overcome negative expectations.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You have a strong will, an abrupt manner, and a highly original form of self-expression.  You need to be careful that your basically iconoclastic nature doesn't end up separating you artificially from others.  Your need for freedom, independence, and uniqueness plays havoc with your life in youth but becomes more a force for progressive change as you get older.  You love the dramatic and are a true romantic.  You have a major lesson in life: to gain freedom through responsibility rather than freedom from responsibility.  Once learned, relationships and projects become much more stable.

SUN SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR URANUS

You have a strong drive to do everything your own way.  This makes getting along with others quite difficult.  You have freedom as a concept but must strive to see it as a reality for others, not just yourself.  The creative side of your nature is powerful but unstable.

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 CANCER

You are sympathetic and sentimental.  Your imagination and feelings are well developed and run deep.  You have a deep emotional bond with things and people from the past.  You cherish anyone that you have had an emotional connection with.  There is an idealistic and romantic element to all your relationships. You are at home in the home.  You have a strong domestic side to your personality and you enjoy cooking for others and nurturing them.  If you find yourself falling into a mood or being very shy and withholding, attempt to become more verbal. Many difficulties can be straightened out by talking.

Moon in 9th house

You gain emotional stability by bringing about external changes. You have a strong imagination so you are on a continuous quest to better your perspective and perceptions.  A certain underlying restlessness and love of adventure can bring about periods of travel.  Voyages can be particularly pleasant for you.

Moon in 9th house Afflicted

You suffer because world experience doesn't match your expectations or beliefs.  Try to let what happens to you mold your beliefs rather than have your philosophy of life limit and color what you will experience. You can be quite prejudiced in your thinking.

MOON CONJUNCT VENUS

You are gentle, kind, pliable and pleasant.  You are friendly and affectionate.  People generally like you.  You have a pleasure-loving side of your personality that can easily become self-indulgent.  This is generally not a problem as long as you stay focused on the outside world, the public and other people. Strive to stay in a cheerful and "upbeat" mode.

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 SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR JUPITER

You feel opportunity coming from a long ways off.  You are a natural at timing your luck, but you can end up with position, power, and material things only to discover you've left friends and family years behind and in another country.  Make sure you evaluate personal sacrifices before you take advantage of new opportunities.

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 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 LEO

Your mind is authoritative, self-sufficient, dramatic and comprehensive.  You don't just passively collect knowledge, you create knowledge when you study.  You relate everything back to you.  When you speak, you don't just say something, you state it. A certain dignity is always hanging in the air.  Although you follow a chain of thought, you have a tendency to build to a climax in very broad terms.  You improve your standing in your world when you learn respect for other people's point of view and increase your own grasp of detail.  When you need to adjust and adapt to life's demands, generally you don't.  You carry the standard off the battle field rather than surrender or even adjust.  When you are too inflexible, you are prone to being either humiliated or ridiculed.

Mercury in 10th house

You are able to apply knowledge in a very practical way.  You may be able to turn you skill with language into literary talent. Your mental versatility and general adaptableness may bring you several changes in employment.

Mercury in 10th house Afflicted

You need to guard against a tendency to take shortcuts.  Try to be honest and plan a direction in life.  You may have a time in life of wandering aimlessly.  Love of success can get in the way of doing justice to the process.

MERCURY IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

Your mental life is very closely tied in to the core of your being.  We looked at this connection in Section II. The Sun -Your ego structure.

MERCURY SEMI-SEXTILE VENUS

Literary skill and a refined outlook on life give you a likeable and colorful manner of expression.  You are acutely aware of the way you affect others.  This awareness can make you more sensitive to your own values as well as giving you some perspective of personal differences with others.  You have talent for creating harmony.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You have some conflict between what you see as facts and what you hold as values.  You can see what you believe to be the good in life, but have difficulty getting to it. You sometimes engage in escapist fantasies or compensatory activity that actually carries you further away from your goal.  You are prone to having a division between your inner and outer life that is self defeating.  Your life greatly improves when you demand that you live out consciously any value that you hold as true.  Strive for accuracy and avoid exaggeration when giving descriptions to others.

MERCURY OPPOSITION YOUR JUPITER

You have an adventuresome mind but can be the master of "jumping to the wrong conclusion".  Patience and discipline serve you well and guard you against ending up being responsible for something you have no control over.  You suffer from unrealistic expectations of other people.  You are taken advantage of primarily because of your own wishful thinking.  Deal more with what people do and less on what they promise, and life is easier.

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 HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You get great ideas, even brilliant at times.  Still, others don't always hear what you are saying and this makes you angry or standoffish.  Whenever this happens, recognize that you need to be thorough and practical or else the world will not see what you have found so interesting. This is not the world's fault.  Slow yourself down long enough to learn how everyone else does things and you will find a natural channel for getting your ideas across. Remember, a good idea is only a good idea until it is put into practice.  Get physical exercise and you might find your nervousness much easier to control.

MERCURY SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR URANUS

Every so often outside factors intervene and change your mental perception and events in your environment in bizarre and uncompromising ways.  If you learn how your own rhythms work, you make very positive contributions to other people's development. Possessing great insights but lacking stability, you are often way ahead of yourself. Consistency brings progress.

MERCURY CONJUNCT NEPTUNE

You have a soft and dreamy mind that is very much involved with ideals and values.  You should have a safe and productive outlet for your imagination like writing, dancing, music, or painting. Without artistic or cultural interests you will be prone to daydreaming and escapist fantasies that keep you in social isolation.  You are psychic and have impressions of what the future will be that get filtered through your own mental history and predispositions.  This can be unsettling for you.  This characteristic can be a tremendous asset when it no longer frightens you.  Your forecasting ability is essential to success in any career where it is applied such as design work, advertising, or stock market projections.  You are not at peace unless the whole culture somehow benefits from what you do.

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 CANCER

You love home, the past, food, and warm romantic notions. You are nurturing and affectionate.  You are a truly gentle lover.  Your affections are very sentimental and devoted. You can bend over backwards to make someone else feel good. When you run into trouble in life the origin can be that you have a maudlin dwelling on the past that stops you from experiencing spontaneous joy in the present moment.  You find inner peace through regular patterns in your everyday life.  Your imagination mingles with your memory to create harmony and comfort in your home and family.

Venus in 9th house

You have a love of faraway places and people.  Because travel is an important value for to you, it is likely that you will spend some time in a foreign country.  You are devotional and very intuitive.  You have the ability to inspire anyone that you feel close to.  You help others bring out the best in themselves.

Venus in 9th house Unafflicted

You may prosper quite a bit through your long-range view of life. You have the big picture in mind and your basic optimism is inspiring.  You create success, not just for yourself but also for others.  You are a good listener, and can entertain many points of view as valid and valuable.

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect between Venus and the Moon.  This shows that you have a powerful emotional nature and are affected at a deep level by other people's thoughts and opinions of you.  This was taken up in some detail for you in Section III.  The Moon - Your Personal Life.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You have artistic sensitivity and social graces.  You have good judgment with people and know what is expected of you.  You have an innate sense of obligation so you are careful about what you promise to others.  You are responsible toward others once you have given your word. You are disciplined and will do well to study art or design.

VENUS TRINE YOUR SATURN

You like people to be stable, practical, and competent.  You like things and people that you can count on. The predictable gives you pleasure.

VENUS CONJUNCT PLUTO

You may not be particularly sentimental but if you love someone, you love them completely and forever.  You live on the emotional extremes.  People are either important to you or they don't even exist.  Your feelings are deep and volcanic.  You love power and control which is fine if you have learned to control yourself. You are magnetic and surrounded with an aura of mystery.  You deal with groups and group resources.  You may have leadership in some creative project or in some financial enterprise.  You polarize people: they either love you or hate you but are seldom indifferent to you.

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 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 Unafflicted

Your ability to immerse yourself in someone else's life and issues while keeping your own life "tabled" is a virtue.  You can be an excellent team player.

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 AQUARIUS

You value personal freedom and are motivated to overcome all obstacles in order to experience a higher vision of truth.  You like anything that gives you creative expanse, and are naturally attracted to explore new ideas and experiment with the results in new ways.  You have a need to show some originality in your work, and look for opportunity that stimulates you mentally.  You have a good imagination and are fond of using it.  This is not just a personal crusade as your picture of the world includes bettering other peoples' lot.  You are both tolerant and humanitarian. You can become too theoretical; at times, you daydream about ideals rather than living them.  However, your humanitarian instincts ground your ideas, demanding to see some sort of application for your values.  Although you are not particularly interested in money, you may be in charge of other peoples' resources as an outgrowth of your higher vision of a better world through the application of scientific, socially futuristic, and humanitarian values.

Jupiter in 5th house

You are fond of self-expression.  You are a natural creator, demonstrator and teacher.  You experience much joy through artistic and cultural outlets.  You have the ability to get along with children.

Jupiter in 5th house  Afflicted

Avoid gambling.  You feel lucky but tend to overplay your hand. Learn the difference between investment and speculation and find out where they fit into your life.

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 MERCURY

You have Jupiter in aspect to Mercury indicating a deep commitment to communicate something of value.  You will have a commitment to knowing the truth and conveying it to others.  You will find some further information on this topic in Section IV. Mercury - You Mental Life.

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You suffer because you remember your failures more than your successes and consequently have a hard time developing a picture of yourself as a winner.  In this sense you were born old. However, this same quality engenders a childish quality in you that tends to look for the "quick fix".  Hard work and consistency of effort brings success for you just like it does for everyone else.  Yes, you need some luck or some breaks, but these come from perspective, vision or aim in life. Work to see yourself as deserving good things in life, then be willing to put forth honest effort.

JUPITER SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Your picture of life is bigger than your skills.  Achieving your goals requires both patience and stamina. Once these virtues are mastered you are able to work with the culture as well as your immediate environment rather than being at odds with the world. Fears have to be faced rather than ignored in order to stop having periodic reversals of your business interests.  Your fears stop you from recognizing genuine opportunity to progress and are responsible for getting you to grasp wildly at imaginary opportunity.  Both of these things stop progress in life from being consistent or personally meaningful.

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You feel lucky and that gets you into trouble.  You get overextended and into financial hot water before you know what has happened.  Being gullible and naive, you suffer through believing in your own fantasies.  Because you are kind and sympathetic, you go out of your way to help others.  But here you can suffer through poor judgment as to what will be of real and lasting help.  The way out of this confusion is not to be less idealistic or less sympathetic, but instead to be more long-term in your vision.  Ask yourself what will be important 10 years from now in your immediate considerations. Taking the long view of yourself and of life is an acid test for moment to moment decisions.

JUPITER OPPOSITION YOUR NEPTUNE

You are lucky but seldom satisfied.  Poor judgment is your greatest enemy.  You can drive people around you crazy by portraying an aura that you have all the world's things coming to you.  Still, your charm and idealism keeps many people in your corner regardless what you do.

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 SCORPIO

You are afraid of not having emotional security.  At the same time, you don't want to depend on anyone else for emotional fulfillment. What a dilemma.  You have tremendous amounts of emotional containment. This can lead to a certain narrowness of outlook.  You can be disciplined and exacting.  You really need to develop your higher values and virtues in order to handle your emotions in a positive way. Try to be more direct with your feelings.  Trust others more, but only be with them if you like them and get rid of your own ulterior motives.

Saturn in 2nd house

You have a restricted picture of yourself and of what you can accomplish.  You work hard to accumulate worldly goods.  You may often worry about money regardless of how much you have.

Saturn in 2nd house Unafflicted

Your hard work brings stable and consistent success.  Your conservative impulses make you a cautious planner and a good strategic investor with both your time and money.

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 SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Responsibilities create confusion for you.  You may feel very burdened by your beliefs which lead to feeling quite isolated from the rest of society.  Your life improves when you are able to rise above self-pity and see how you inadvertently cause your own suffering.  You need to build success by shuttling between your obligations and your ideals. Becoming rigid mentally or slipping into confusion is self defeating. Building positive self esteem is necessary.

SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are a good manager and a solid planner.  Your instincts are conservative and you know how to make the most out of your natural temperament.  You are disciplined and see ways to make the most of your situation and position in life.  Other people are a great help to you only when you are putting your best foot forward.  A position of authority and responsibility comes to you eventually in life.

SATURN TRINE YOUR PLUTO

You are the great economist, making the most of every situation. Circumstances that will be luckiest for you will develop slowly over a long period of time.  You are self-reliant, resourceful and cautious. As a planner you are hard to beat.  Deep changes occur in the core of your personality by being in touch with and fulfilling your obligations.

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 PISCES

You look for inner peace.  Your quest is for spiritual and social self-sufficiency.  Your will is moved by devotional and religious ideals.

Uranus in 6th house

You have the ability to see the unique in an otherwise boring routine. You have the ability to inspire others with your original methods of accomplishing a pre-established end product.

Uranus in 6th house Afflicted

You are prone to nervous disorders.  Get the energy inside of you out to others.  Avoid trying to get originality out of co-workers.  Rather, find new ideas inside of yourself.  Otherwise, you will find others unreliable.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have Uranus in aspect to the Sun showing that you are a freedom lover at heart and this forms a central feature of your personality. This aspect of your nature is explained in Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

You have Uranus in aspect to Mercury.  Your Mental attitudes express your quest for freedom.  This is explained in Section IV. Mercury -Your Mental 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 11th house

You are an idealist but may expect too much from friends.  You like friends who are intuitive and artistic.  You admire people who can add a new dimension to your own reasoning and have the ability to effect change in others.

Neptune in 11th house Afflicted

You may surround yourself with people who are less than honest and who have a great deal of influence on you.  Develop the quality of having loyalty to ideals that transcend your interactions with friends.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

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 9th house

You have a great desire to expand your horizons and your general knowledge.  This can lead you to travel, study religion, philosophy and ethics, and do some deep soul-searching.  There is an adventuresome quality to your nature that is almost never at rest.

Pluto in 9th house Unafflicted

When you talk, others listen.  You often only reveal your inner thoughts when you are in close, private company.  Then, you "draw a bead" on the most important issue and express yourself in terse but captivating phrases.  You have qualities that can inspire in any teaching situation.

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.

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.

     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 Venus.

You have natural instincts for how to deal with people. Diplomacy is your way of moving forward in life.  Focusing on the important issues between you and your loved ones usually makes meaningful compromises possible.  When you concentrate on your first priorities and assert the gentler side of your nature, your life improves.

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.

Moon in Cancer.

Your instincts and personal feelings are so deep and your ability to bond with others so direct and honest that you easily get along with anyone you have established a positive past history with.

     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 Sun

The way that you naturally seek self-expression and ego satisfaction cuts against the grain of personal integration. Simply put, you get in your own way.  Locate the source of your self-imposed conflict and work toward forms of expression that bring the conflicting elements of your personality together on friendly terms.

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 Mercury

You suffer because you draw the wrong conclusions from your perceptions.  There are several ways of breaking out of a negative picture.  You can ask other people's advice as to your present course of action in life, you can strive to be more empirical in your observations, and you can look for a consistent pattern in your past actions.  Through expanding your perceptions, you can break out of a self-limiting mental bubble.

Afflicted Jupiter

Your values are lopsided so your energy and judgment is off. Overcoming pride, waste and unrealistic expectations creates the pathway to a more stable value system.  Your life improves when you are able to corral your aberrant need to feel that you "belong".  Things improve when you are able to establish a self picture based on your own approval rather than public acceptance.

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.

Afflicted Neptune

You seem at odds with the culture you are in.  You are idealistic but your ideals are unsympathetic to the social direction of the moment. You can be a visionary and a real helper to the world but you must harness your values in a positive and realistic way in order to be of use to the world or even to enjoy your personal life.  Your prospects in life improve when you are able to direct your ideals and values inwardly toward your own life in a joyful and practical way.  You will affect the world positively when you effectively change your own life.

Mercury in Leo

Although your mind is persistent your observations are colored deeply by how new information can enhance your picture of yourself.  If you learn to take yourself less seriously, the negative in your self picture lessens considerably.

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.

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.

     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.

Sun in Growth Aspect to Moon

You undergo development throughout this life via the process of your ego drives learning to work in harmony with the circumstances of your everyday existence.  As you get older you ask more of yourself as you adjust to circumstances of each situation rather than fighting them. To do this without lowering your goals, standards, and expectations is the trick, but it is also the path of personality maturation.

Sun Semi-Sextile Moon

You pay extra attention to how your activities start and stop. Growth can occur quickly when you concentrate the majority of your energy on how you get involved and how you complete each task.  The principle of inertia takes care of a lot of the middle ground for you.  Your time and energy does best when focused on the things that are changing.  You have the capability to adjust to outer world circumstances and changes, and it is through this that your life improves as it progresses.

Sun Semi-Sextile Venus

The quest for beauty can lead you away from a path of personal development.  This is because the object of your search in life seems to you to be substantially different from what you find as your own inner resource.  Through self observation you come to realize that it is the beauty in you that perceives the beauty in the world.  True progress for you can be won through achieving a balance between your own inner drives and what you see in other people that you judge as significantly different from what you find in yourself.

Sun in Growth Aspect to Pluto

You approach deep transformations tentatively.  Frustrations occur every time you try to hurry the transformation process or when you try to avoid it.  Life is good when you move slowly but surely toward your better self.  Going slow and keeping in motion means staying out of denial.  Further, slow steady progress supplies you with the courage needed to face, then deal with, the deeper levels of pain that the growth process requires from you.

Sun Semi-Sextile Pluto

Channeling your life in a direction that you choose requires help. Learning when to be open to help and when to be self reliant is a great lesson.  Sometimes you will need to take a great leap forward when you would rather change what you are doing only incrementally.  Be brave, opportunities to transform completely present themselves only occasionally.  Don't let one pass you by.

Mercury Semi-Sextile Venus

The creative side of your personality becomes a path of growth for you as you learn to use every relationship as a possible form of personal understanding.  Your manner of expression and general tone of your voice reveals your attitude toward life, which of course changes dramatically through time.  When your misunderstandings and personal inflections get you into trouble with those with whom you are close (or those with whom you would like to be closer) then you find access to deeper personal resources in carrying on human relationships.  You can accomplish an unbelievable amount of work with people (in regards to end results) through very slight alterations of the intonation and inflections of your expressions and mannerisms.  Little changes can carry you a long way.

Mercury in Growth Aspect to Pluto

Stops, starts and compulsions intervene in your mental life periodically without you feeling particularly connected to the process. Learning to integrate the unconscious urges that end up having some legislative capacity in your decisions requires some long term adjustments and deeper levels of self exploration than you normally embark on.

Mercury Semi-Sextile Pluto

You have trouble getting closure over ideas and projects. Slowly, through practice, you are able to integrate the part of your nature that is permanent and final into your everyday mental life.  Part of your nature always wants to keep its options open. As you develop faith in life and your own judgments, you are able to overcome the troublesome side of both your perfectionism as well as your extreme desire for detachment.

     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.

Moon Parallel Venus

A sweetness colors all that you do and the natural tendency that you have to create harmony.  Your gradual responses to life and your instinctive reading of each situation that you are in lends itself to the creation of art and beauty.

Moon Parallel North Node of the Moon

You quite naturally connect with a deep quality in other people's emotional nature.  When you are at your best, you have the capacity to put other people at ease.  You develop the most progressive aspects of your nature through the manner that you deal with family issues.

Moon Parallel Midheaven

You have a need to connect with many people through your career. There is a quality to your being that withholds your deepest thoughts and you don't always care for the exposure that success brings you.

Venus Parallel North Node of the Moon

Your love of beauty and harmony is very much part of your path of growth and self exploration.  Real development of your finer qualities seems to automatically require a series of value-driven relationships. These can be either financial or romantic and sometimes both.

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 Saturn

You have a single minded focus and honesty which allows the balanced, honest, and conservative side of your nature to produce some good. You have a propensity for being able to take a philosophically impartial overview of every situation.

North Node of the Moon Parallel the Ascendant

You attract other people into your life at the critical moment of personal development.  The people that are problematic in your life represent a pattern that you must deal with in order to grow at the deep interpersonal level.  Otherwise, relationships of an intimate variety are an endless string of repeat performances.

Jupiter Contra-Parallel Neptune

You have a genuine creative vision which can translate into genius if you are able to energize the poetical and mystical side of your nature while staying grounded in a productive mode. Your vivid and over-stimulated picture of the higher principles of the universe can lead to escapist tendencies but give a positive if misty picture of life.

     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 Cancer

Opening your heart to others, being involved in the creative process betters your life.  Learn to deal with how things are, not for what they can become.  Concentrate on issues of family and emotional bonds and less on practical results.  You know how to be responsible, the big question is "Can you learn to be responsive to the emotional needs of others?"  The development of empathy and bonding requires you to take steps away from pessimism and to approach life's fuller possibilities.

North Node of the Moon in Cancer and in the Ninth House

Take leaps of faith.  Linking with your higher intuition helps you overcome fears.  You are always searching for more facts and have a terrible time coming to a conclusion that allows you to move forward. Traveling and exploring new concepts, taking a stand on a higher value, all open you emotionally.

                          TABLE OF DEFINITIONS

                               THE  ASPECTS

                  ***Basic classification of aspects***

Hard or difficult aspects.  - Semi-square, Square, Sesquiquadrate, and Opposition.  These are the aspects that help us recognize the ingredients in our personality that need changing.

Easy or soft aspects.  - Trines and Sextiles.  These are the aspects that express our talents and skills.

Growth aspects.  - Semi-sextiles and quincunx.  These are aspects that give us opportunity to grow.  They indicate long term development of some key aspect of your personality and behavior for this life time.

Power aspects.  - Conjunctions, Parallels, and Contra-parallels. These are the aspects that show energy, force, reorganization and transformational ability.

              ***Circumstances  of  the  planets  by  aspect***

Afflicted  -  A  planet  is  called  afflicted  when  it  has  only  hard  (difficult)  aspects.    These  planets  represent  our  greatest  challenges  and  our  more  promising  areas  of  growth.

Unafflicted  -  A  planet  is  unafflicted  when  it  is  not  limited  to  only  hard  aspects.    This  can  mean  that  the  planet  has  no  aspects,  has  only  easy  aspects,  or  has  both  hard  and  soft  aspects.

Well  Aspected  -  A  planet  is  called  well  aspected  when  it  has  no  hard  aspects.    This  shows  ease  of  expression  and  a  certain  ability  to  bring  the  ingredients  symbolized  forward  into  life  with  little  or  no  conflict.

Ascendant - This is the same as the cusp of the first house.  The Ascendant refers to your physical body and how you meet the world, how you present yourself.
