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 20% of your chart in the fire element showing that you have an awareness of how much energy you lack that others seem to have.  Still, you have plenty of enthusiasm and stamina prevalent.  You go toward each project with a certain amount of pre-selectivity.  You are always prompted to do more, primarily because you don't trust that you are doing enough.  In the long run, this single characteristic guaranties you accomplish much in life.

Earth

You have 20% of your chart in the earth element.  You have a natural knack for dealing with money, material resources, and projects where the end result is important.  You may worry about your results and be very concerned that you aren't doing as well as you should materially. Still, in the long run, you are quite accomplished in knowing how to get the most out of existing conditions.

Air

You have a large volume of air in your chart.  You are a true people person.  You like connecting people with people, people with ideas, and ideas with ideas.  You are interested in everything and may find yourself studying many subjects at once and taking great interest and pleasure in things other people find irrelevant.  You may end up being very trivial in your perspective on life even though your scope of vision is vast. Still, others find you gregarious and pleasant. Avoid procrastinating on projects and chores.   Gathering more data is no substitute for action.   When your house, existing in this material plane, is on fire, don't collect more data, GET OUT.

Water

Jupiter is your only water planet.  You have 10% of your chart in water.  You have a struggle to develop a meaningful personal life.  You envision a type of relationship with society that requires you to be more in touch with your feelings than you are normally.  You don't express as much sympathy and feelings as others.  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 20% of your chart in the cardinal mode showing that you are capable of both leading and following.  You know how to assert your point of view or execute someone else's.  Your preference is to follow someone else's lead and embark on your own path only when you feel it is necessary.

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

     C.  The Ascendant and Midheaven (Signs and Aspects)

          1.  The Ascendant

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

                               LEO RISING

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

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 Sextile the Ascendant

You have a natural ease in any social situation.  You seem to know what others want and what you can give them that they might need.  You express yourself in a personable way that others can understand.  You perform the most routine and simple tasks in life as if they were interesting and fun.  You make progress in life by making emotional adjustments.  The public is very important to your self understanding; as others recognize and respond to aspects of your personality, you gain a deeper and more informed appreciation for who you are and what you do.  You are at peace with yourself.

Mercury Semi-Square the Ascendant

You like people and ideas.  You get nervous when you are dealing with people who you feel are different than you are or when you feel that you are being misunderstood.  Your changes in expression can be interpreted as changes in viewpoint by others, adding to your nervousness and to general confusion.  Remember, understatement is usually more helpful than overstatement.

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.

Mars Square the Ascendant

You are often frustrated.  The roots of your anger, causing so much pain in your life, are conflicting desires.  This conflict can certainly make for difficulties in both your professional and family life.  Strive to make your inner conflicts explicit so that you can understand and come to terms with them.  Find safe, physical releases for your pent-up energy.

Saturn Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 12th House and unafflicted.

Life is serious for you.  You were born feeling responsible but have always had difficulty in expressing it.  Self doubt and worry can cast a long shadow over everyday life until you uproot deep inner conflict. Your serious outlook can give you the ability to work for a cause in a constructive and giving way. You are practical, cautious, and conservative by inclination. Slow, steady progress can be yours as these qualities aid you. Be responsible, not fearful.  Worry is your enemy and consideration and humility your friends.

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 1st House and unafflicted.

You are intense and transformative and it shows on you physically. Your demeanor is very polarizing.  Some people are attracted to you by your inner strength and resolve, others are frightened by what they perceive as an uncompromising quality. You have stamina that defies logic. 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 distrust your own emotions when they leave you vulnerable to anyone.  Loyalty is often a prerequisite to any emotional agreement.  Events of your life keep giving you the opportunity to exercise control.  "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.

                             ARIES MIDHEAVEN

You are quick to start projects.  You may not have a lot of follow-through.  Basically, career supplies you with an emotional arena.  You are quick and like being first.  If you have staying power in your career, success comes to you.

Mars Applying Conjunction to Midheaven and afflicted.

You are dynamic and assertive and these qualities help you make your way in life.  Your desire to do things your own way is so strong that you can become quite angry when you are blocked by people or circumstances.  Your directness is very productive but decisions executed in haste are often the source of future problems.  You are happiest in a line of work that allows you to be your own boss.  This is not always possible or even desirable since your major life projects require the types of limits you only find through working with others.

Saturn Square Midheaven

You can hold yourself back in life because you unconsciously fear being in a position with too much responsibility.  For all of this, you end up as a leader, having to make decisions and execute them.  Others rely on you because you are responsible.

     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.

Moon Conjunct Neptune

Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life, and X. NEPTUNE -Your spiritual aspirations and ideals, 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 Uranus

Think of Sections IV. MERCURY - Your mental life, and IX. URANUS - Your search for freedom, as a single unit.  This Conjunction is a central indicator of the way you interact with people and your environment

Venus Conjunct Mars

Think of Sections V. VENUS - Your love nature, and VI. MARS -Your energy, as a single unit.  This Conjunction represents a central theme in the way that you form your values.  It is fundamental to the way you acquire what you want in life.

Saturn Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections VIII. SATURN - Your obligations, and XI. PLUTO - Your need for fundamental change, as a single unit.  These two areas affect each other mightily and show a composite foundation of serious intent present in your personality.  This Conjunction represents a necessary focus in your life.

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 GEMINI

You are versatile and adaptable.  Usually, you have fifty projects going, all at the same time.  You are interested in everything, but this makes it very difficult to do anything in particular very well. You love to relate.  You build your day and your life around interactions with people, ideas and events.  You are a rapid learner and a good communicator.  Often, your learning is on the surface and your communication is just imitative, but you can reason and are not afraid of innovation. Try to be more consistent in your approach to life.  When you are well organized, you accomplish.  When you develop sympathy for others, your relationships become more stable.

Sun in 11th house

You are a good long-distance planner.  Your perceptions of life's intricacies are not limited to your own situation.  You are social and outgoing.  In business as well as in sports you are a good team player. In your personal life you may be too detached with ideas and moods which run quite tangent to the norm.  Be sure you are expressing your true feelings.

Sun in 11th house Unafflicted

You know how to use your natural friends and allies in a way that builds toward mutual success.  You have a propensity for building on solid unimpeachable foundations which become part of a process of social change.  Your keen perception of what is better is balanced against society's ability to change.  You are unencumbered with most social prejudices.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

You are like the proverbial cat that always lands on its feet. You harvest experience and store it away.  It becomes an asset. You have a natural instinct for seeing your own limits and the limits of a situation.  You gauge your commitment, your involvement, and your energy well.  Generally, you have enough of whatever you need to get the job done in life.  This is perhaps the nicest and most productive influence to find in a horoscope.

SUN TRINE YOUR MOON

Inner harmony and balance creates tremendous momentum.  You have a tight weaving between your ego and emotions.  You achieve much and always can compensate for things that don't work out as planned.

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 SEXTILE YOUR SATURN

You are serious, cautious and reserved.  Lucky at finding the simplest way to complete a project, you expect the good in life. Your background, your past, your training and your instincts lead you to expect success.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You see how the world in general and your life in particular could be better through vision of a higher truth.  You have creative ability. This skill is frequently used in blending together people and situations to find imaginative solutions to difficulties.  You believe in people and in life deeply and will suffer at times because less idealistic souls will take advantage of your good will.  Nonetheless, you are a force for good. Because you anticipate and expect exemplary behavior from others, it is easier for people to be their better selves around you.

SUN TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

You have an idealistic charm and appreciation for the finer and subtler aspects of life.  You are a natural diplomat because are able to see common ground between many points of view.  All of the arts have a deeply moving effect on you and bring out your romantic nature.  You believe the best of others and this can be overdone.   You are gullible and will certainly be taken in by a good story every so often.  Still, as you well know,  Life is more pleasant because you attribute the best motives to others.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  PLUTO

You are penetrating in your insight and informative in your suggestions to others.  You ask a good deal of yourself and are driven unconsciously toward important issues.  You have an instinctive and natural grasp of fundamentals.  You approach anything new with a blend of distrust and curiosity, but when you commit to some project you are one hundred percent behind it and execute your part with daring and self-confidence.  You make a true friend and a great ally.  Your vitality is very strong.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

When you are emotionally connected to a project, your compulsive nature can carry you through to completion in a way that increases awareness. Great insight and stamina powers your ego to great personal achievement.

SECTION III.  The MOON - Your Personal Life.

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

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

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

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

MOON IN LIBRA

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

Moon in 3rd house

You have deep emotional connections to your early childhood. Your memory is keen, your mind is versatile and you feel comfortable in an environment where learning is valued.

Moon in 3rd house Unafflicted

Your friends and acquaintances think of you as a good communicator. You can be very good at arbitration because you naturally empathize with several points of view.  Part of you always stays childlike and attached to the pleasant memories from your early childhood.

MOON IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR 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 SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  SATURN

You are cautious and a careful planner.  You lay a firm foundation in all that you do.  Your instincts and habits are basically conservative. You are satisfied with slow progress. You apply the principles of consistency and patience to your benefit.

MOON SEXTILE YOUR SATURN

Your habits are conservative and your instincts naturally move you toward a pattern of common sense with some emphasis on repetition of the way things have been.  Financially frugal and emotionally reserved is one way of describing you.  Responsible, cautious actions come to you naturally.  You seek and general get people's approval.

MOON CONJUNCT NEPTUNE

You are extremely psychic and very sensitive to your environment and your associates.  This sensitivity may be frightening when it stays in the land of day dreams and a real asset when it is harnessed to the immediate and relevant circumstances in your daily life.  The speed of this integration governs the rate of emotional integration and normalcy of living you experienced in childhood.  You have a tendency to retreat into fantasy and daydreaming.  If your imagination is harnessed and reinforced as a child, art, music, dance and all cultural pursuits become an open book for you.  The arts can become your escape and a constructive and shareable part of your inner life.  You have an uncanny knack for what is happening around you because you are "tuned in" to the larger world.  If you have courage and discipline, you may well have a very positive effect on the whole world.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  PLUTO

A few significant dreams and a few significant people greatly impact your emotional outlook and unconscious life habits. You make absolute judgments emotionally and unconsciously as to who will affect you and who will not.  You come before the general public at some time in your life, even if briefly.  You have a powerful affect on others, passing along to them the deepest residue of your life experience.  You develop deep emotional attachments and do not easily relinquish or alter them. You are a loyal friend once you have made a commitment.

MOON SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

Your daily habits get restructured periodically.  This happens because you feel the need for change and respond to this feeling enthusiastically.  You are deeply driven and have a powerful need for a wide variety of life experiences within a chosen area or field.

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 GEMINI

Your mind hops from thing to thing like a starving wolf in a cage full of bunny rabbits.  You see all sides of every question and then invent a few more to explore.  You are logical, inquisitive, and mentally alert although your insights may be completely superficial.  Develop depth and persistence, then you have the best of both worlds.  When you talk, people will often be moved by your witty, humorous form of rationalization.  You are good with words although you may like them more than they deserve. You like inventing new words and sounds and ideas.  If you also have continuity in your expressions you may well become an expresser of great ideas as well as a great learner.  You are making adjustments to circumstances in your environment all the time, whether they are required or not.  You like change.

Mercury in 11th house

You have a truly comprehensive approach to life.  You are open minded and adaptable.  You enjoy intellectual friendships.  You have a strong desire to earn your own way and carry your own weight in life.

Mercury in 11th house Afflicted

You need to struggle against a conceited and stubborn attitude towards life.  You may be involved with deceitful friends or people who use you for ulterior motives.  Strive for personal honesty and you will be able to sort out truth in all your relationships.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You can be a tireless worker and powerful promoter of a cause. You like working with instruments and machinery and have some mechanical aptitude.  Your temper can be problematic, getting you into squabbles and disagreements where there doesn't have to be any.  You have difficulty being either a diplomat or a leader so you are best to define your own work and territory and stick to it.  Learn to take a break when things don't go your way, rather than becoming angry and frustrated.

MERCURY SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MARS

Your temper flares quickly as your mind becomes easily nervous and overloaded with data.  You experience this as irritation until you develop the ability to organize your thought process and harness your enthusiasm and energy to specific projects.

MERCURY CONJUNCT URANUS

You get a new idea every minute and have difficulty waiting to express it.  You are truly innovative and original in your thought process.  While you are nervous, you do have good mechanical aptitude.  If you can get control of your hands and mind, you can be quite inventive.  You have a love for technical subjects and do your best work while blazing new trails on the frontiers of knowledge.  Most of your difficulties stem from situations that require you to be regular, ordinary, and consistent, conforming to everyone else's procedures. Unfortunately for you, a certain amount of traditional training is necessary or no one will understand how good your ideas really are.  You have a flood of New Age information in you.  You need to find a way to express it.

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 TAURUS

You have a love of money, food, and possessions.  You are a very physical, slow and easygoing lover.  You are slow to get involved with someone but you are steadfast once you do.  Although you are by nature conservative and oriented toward your home, you have a pleasant sociable side to your nature and can be quite generous. You may have problems in dealing with others because you have a tendency to evaluate people on their material worth.  In order to have satisfying human relationships, you need to see people more as they are and less in terms of their worth.  Money may be security but it isn't any real compensation for lack of love. You seek inner peace through your sense of touch. Art, music, and harmonious order have deep significance for you.  You have an earthly beauty and a natural charm.

Venus in 10th house

You are well thought of in society, generally.  Your career may involve the arts, women, or the gentle side of experience.  You are good at being able to cut a deal and get fringe benefits. You are a good negotiator.

Venus in 10th house Afflicted

You are afraid of being rejected by others.  You look to be "rejection proof" through a position of power.  You are attracted to other people at times because of their position or social station.  You need to feel better about yourself and strive to develop relationships that are honest.

VENUS CONJUNCT MARS.

You have sex appeal and abnormally powerful magnetic charm. People generally like you which is fine with you since you are always interested in them at some level or other.  You are a relationship person and always have something going on in this area of your life.  You give of yourself in relationships but also ask a great deal from others.  You may be looking for something from others that you can only find in yourself.  You have a keen interest in the arts and will excel in any line of work that brings out your creativity.

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 OPPOSITION YOUR JUPITER

You easily overplay your hand, going for too much too soon.  You must understand that others see you as demanding and vain, whereas you see yourself as charming, fun loving, and moral. Your self portrait often works out unfavorably as others take advantage of your generosity. This reinforces bad habits in others and leaves you feeling used, isolated, and different from others.  Too much of anything can be your undoing.  When you vary your style of expression and practice some restraint, life is easier.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

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

VENUS SQUARE YOUR SATURN

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

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are a great manipulator and are often caught up trying to make things appear a certain way.  You are the one who suffers from this tendency the most.  You tend to get tied down to a pattern of endless repetition in relationships. You have difficulty in letting go even when a situation is painful.  You are always dealing with people as symbols of others who are not even present.  Love and power become confused with one another. You have a deeply lodged need to establish your sense of self worth.  Once this is secure you can overcome your fear of being dissolved in a relationship built on equality and will start having more normal interactions.  You need to be less concerned with how you appear to others and more concerned with how you are.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

Your extremes of emotion and expression stop you from being able to get what you are attracted to.  If you see that you have been through the same picture a number of times; notice that your own fear, paranoia, and sedentariness is stopping you from making important deep changes. Relax. Trust. Change.

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 10th house

You have an unquenchable desire to do things your own way.  Your energy seems inexhaustible.  You live for today but have sufficient drive so that tomorrow looks brighter and takes care of itself when it comes.

Mars in 10th house Afflicted

You demand too much from people around you.  Try not to dominate others as a mechanism for gaining control of your environment. Give others the same freedom you want for yourself.

MARS IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

Your Mars in aspect to Mercury shows that you have a strong desire nature attached to your thought processes.  The impact of this aspect on you reasoning process is discussed in Section IV. Mercury - Your Mental Life.

MARS IN ASPECT VENUS

You have Mars in aspect to Venus.  This aspect shows sex appeal and interest in romance.  This aspect is covered more fully in Section V. Venus - Your Love Nature.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You are a perfectionist.  You can pick at yourself and others unmercifully, trying to get circumstances in your life to match some unspecified standard.  Your energy becomes freer to work in an unencumbered way when you recognize that you aren't really looking to match an objective standard at all.  What you want is to find some emotionally and psychologically defendable ground to stand on.  The real trick in life for you is to keep moving. This is not easy since you should really only move ahead on a project after forethought or planning; your judgments tend to be colored by your fears or your momentary desires.  You work very hard for what comes to you. This is unavoidable.  But, you could end up working very hard for no gain. This is avoidable through balancing your drives with your responsibilities.  You find that you have better health and much freer energy if you get vigorous physical exercise at least three times a week.

MARS SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Fear of negative assessment by others and fear of not living up to your own standard can create nervousness.  Poor judgment can be the end result.  You can get far in any career because there is a game playing and lucky part of your personality that pushes the limits. Unfortunately, you usually go beyond your limits and suffer loss.  By accepting necessary limits to your expansion, even when unpleasant, you learn and grow.

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 SEMI-SQUARE YOUR URANUS

Your anger is your enemy, but your uniqueness is your friend.  Be willing to take bold steps but be aware of difficulty that emerges when you are angry.  Anger is the "short-circuiting" of a frustrated mind. Think before you act; your energy expresses itself in a more positive manner.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

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

MARS SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

You have great capacity to be violent, angry, pernicious, and willful. Your energy is greatly amplified and spills over into everything that you do.  Your desire nature tends to run on its own if not directed by your reasoning.  Discipline, reason, and correct judgment are difficult ingredients for you to use on this aspect of your nature, but, it is the path out of a deeply ingrained habit of reacting to circumstance.  Work to change the focus of your energy any time your motive for acting is defensive.

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 SCORPIO

Your values run deep and are emotionally charged.  Deductive and fond of mystery, you have enthusiasm for the side of life others might as soon forget or ignore.  Sex, death, and life's ultimate principles color the way you approach choices. Preferring the intense, the decisive, you do your best to avoid compromises and the normal common place ways of being.  You thrive on intensity. Your reasoning is subtle and you attribute motives to others that are really components of your own makeup.  You have a tendency to "short circuit" your emotions.  This causes great intensity of pleasure, pain, joy and worry.  You feel a great wellspring of knowledge within you for the hidden side of life, where thought and emotion blend.  You are psychically connected to society and its needs, as well as the immediate demands of your environment. Because of this you are naturally "in tune" with the needs of a situation, and often find strength to act in a definitive problem solving manner.  You actually prefer crises to calm because stressful situations bring out your best.  Your passions can be quite strong and at times your emotions run away with you. Still, your great external restraint keeps your behavior from being antisocial.  You pierce the veil of illusion in regards to other people; you see them as they are pretty much, being unimpressed by a person's social standing or financial circumstances. You are natural in scientific disciplines like chemistry and biology. You have great devotion for whatever your will is focused on.

Jupiter in 4th house

Life improves with age.  You feel confident in your interactions with family members.  You are able to expand outward from your biological family to your community, your country or maybe even the whole universe.  You get along with everyone you feel connected with.

Jupiter in 4th house  Afflicted

You suffer from being too locked into a pattern of how things used to be or by ignoring your roots completely.  You may hold out the vain hope that you can make everything different by going somewhere new and starting over.  Remember, you take yourself wherever you go. Consequently, your problems are the same until you change.

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 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 SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Misperceptions and over-optimism can throw your judgment off a bit. On the other hand, you're extremely fortunate and many of your projects have positive results even though your reasoning process and understanding are not always "in tune" with your direction.

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 LEO

You are motivated by a fear of just being another person.  You defend yourself when attacked with very dramatic and hyperbolic idioms. Avoid overreaction.  You are striving to develop genuine heart qualities of warmth, sympathy and understanding.  You are somebody, accept it, then don't take yourself so seriously. Develop a sense of humor.

Saturn in 12th house

You are deep inside of yourself.  You are reserved and prone to periods of seclusion.  You need to be left alone when you are working as you are so sensitive to everything and everyone around you.

Saturn in 12th house Unafflicted

You have a long history of being able to devote your attention to important issues of social change.  Sometimes you are too quick to take on struggles for others.  You have a real capacity for selfless service.

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 IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have Saturn in aspect to Mars showing a desire to build strong foundations in your life.  This aspect of your nature is taken up in Section VI.  Mars - Your Energy.

SATURN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You learn most lessons in life the hard way, but you do learn. It is common for you to attempt to do something the way you have done it before and find out the old method will not work or doesn't apply. When you try to apply a new method you find you have to be empirical, trying many things before you find what will work.  You find life easier if you avoid letting emotional tension build up and if you make it a practice to speak your mind.

SATURN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR URANUS

Poor judgment and unforeseen interruptions can stop you from fulfilling your obligations.  When you are able to adequately address your need for freedom and change, you are able to make more meaningful long range plans and meet your responsibilities more completely.

SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

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

SATURN SEXTILE YOUR NEPTUNE

You are an idealist that has the common sense to keep your feet on the ground and put one ingredient together at a time to get to your goal. Anything artistic that you do will speak to some aspect of the culture. Your expressions are practical yet touch a chord of basic conscience in the public.  Your drama has a believability to it that is instructive.

SATURN CONJUNCT PLUTO

Deep secret fears and hidden anxieties prevent your life from becoming as successful and outgoing as you would like it to be. You have a special temperament for the study of history and anthropology. A study of the past can release you from present fears.  Hard work brings recognition and success.

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 GEMINI

You have powerful ideas that may or may not be practical.  You are spontaneous and excitable, ready to move with a new idea. You may be unsettled or even annoyed by activity around you.

Uranus in 11th house

You are a true patriot of social causes.  You are optimistic, humanitarian and a true believer in the goodness of people deciding their own destiny.  You have several different types of friends, some quite unusual.  Your ideas are ahead of their time.

Uranus in 11th house Afflicted

Your friends may be completely unreliable and therefore your social life is very erratic.  Your own reliability may be in question by others because your willfulness sometimes cuts you off from them.

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.

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 LIBRA

You have a powerful desire to create harmony because you believe that by doing so you reduce the pressure on people and create the circumstances of justice, peace, and understanding.  You see humanitarian ideals not just as correct, but aesthetically pleasing.

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 THE SUN

You have an aspect of Neptune to the Sun showing that you have a gentleness and lofty vision of life.  How this works out is shown by Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

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 LEO

At best, you believe in yourself and are willing to stand on your own. You have a need for self expression.  At worst, you are completely stuck on yourself, and have a strong desire to bend everyone else to your will.

Pluto in 1st house

Life is a battle to you.  You are powerful.  You are so secret that you don't even know what goes on in your inner depths.  You are a loner and a magnetic and adventurous explorer.  Your hunger for experience is insatiable.

Pluto in 1st house Unafflicted

Others don't understand you but they do respect your ability and your vast array of potentials.  Your robust and dynamic intensity is generally admired and utilized by others.  You may make a good troubleshooter because you are intense and self-reliant.

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 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 SEMI-SQUARE.

Your mind is the key to unraveling your life in a sane and organized way.  You generate details that can easily become problems or great assets in discovering new options while solving a problem.  Your life tends to rise or fall based on how you deal with day to day frustrations.  Getting a constant flow of energy and being able to apply it systematically in one direction is quite an accomplishment for you.  Life may not be supplying you with a lot of continuity but it is always interesting.  You do best in life when you are able to capitalize on the diversity without losing a sense of personal integration.  Your key word is Interest.

YOU HAVE NO PLANETARY SESQUIQUADRATES.

You know how to work hard for what comes to you.  You have a relaxed style for bringing about change in life.  You get to your goals in life through careful planning and consistent application of energy.

     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 Sun.

Your ego structure serves the natural place of giving your life balance and symmetry.  You have a potent central core that allows you to achieve a sense of integration.  This potency aids you immensely by supplying you with inner poise under all circumstances.  This doesn't make your life easy but does help you get perspective on experiences.

Mercury in Gemini.

You have a great asset in your mental versatility and in your ability to switch directions.  You find strength in change and when in trouble you can see alternative points of view and a number of different strategies for acting.

Mercury in the Eleventh House.

You are very good at getting input from others when arriving at a conclusion or looking for a new direction.  Conversation is always stimulating and generally productive.

Venus in Taurus.

You have a soft, sensitive, sensual side of your nature.  This is a quality that allows you to enjoy the material world and find personal expression for your love nature.

Mars in the Tenth House.

You are led to a position of effective self-expression that is quite public by the logic of your actions.  You have the ability to choose your direction and go your own way.

Jupiter in the Fourth House.

Your life improves with age and your optimistic expectations help you always to see the best in what happens.  Good things can come to you because you believe enough in life to be open to the possibility of the positive coming to you.

Uranus in the Eleventh House.

You have the ability to see and utilize the good in everyone you meet. Your inclination to focus on the uniqueness of each person and each situation in life gives you a powerful asset in everything you do.

     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 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 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.

Afflicted Mars

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

Afflicted 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.

Sun in the Eleventh House

You have great interest in people and often experience joy through other people's accomplishments.  It is difficult to get to the root of your own needs because your life is so wrapped up in others.  It is best to make sure that you spend enough time by yourself to see who you are.

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 Leo

Self-doubt and fear of others propels you into self-defeating forms of personal defense.  This form of protectionism makes it hard for others to see your better side.  By becoming more loving and more open, your dramatic inclinations help you build bridges rather than barriers between you and others.

     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 Mars

You have a rashness and anger to your personality that never quite ex-presses itself correctly.  Too much ego involvement with your assertive instincts or lack of ownership of your directness can impede positive self-expression.  As you get older you learn to channel your feelings more appropriately.

Sun Semi-Sextile Mars

There is an emotional and energetic side of your personality that goes through a long process of overcoming shyness.  As you become more comfortable with your own aggression, you find ways of expressing it so that the results are neither covert nor dishonest.  Strength is found by learning to depersonalize your feelings.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Venus

The receptive and gentle side of your personality is always looking for an appropriate expression.  You learn by trial and error how to relate your sensitivity to others without invoking disappointment or rejection from them.  Learning how to receive what others give you freely requires work on your behalf.

Moon Quincunx Venus

The frustration you experience in life often comes because you get what you ask for from other people (and life in general). Unfortunately, what you ask for isn't what you want.  Partly, you are slowly learning better communication skills, and partly you are learning to understand your own deeper cravings as they are. You see the unacknowledged and undigested parts of your sensitivity and creativity present in others, but, these are really projections that you have to own within your self if you are to change for the better.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Mars

You have a quick emotional trigger.  This in itself is not problematic, but, your sense of timing and the nature of your emotional responses need some adjustment.  As you get more comfortable with your true feelings, you get better at knowing how and when to express yourself. The first step in getting what you want out of life is to recognize what you really desire.  The second step is to become comfortable with what you want.  The third step is to harmonize existing conflicts of drives.  This points you toward the path of higher self development.

Moon Quincunx Mars

Learning to be emotionally consistent is harder for you than for most people because your feelings and desires cover such a wide range of possible expression.  Your manner of self expression can inadvertently add weight and encouragement to components of your personality that you actually wish to minimize or even transform. It takes much experimentation with relationships in order to have emotions that serve your higher needs rather than just running amuck on their own mission of blind, disconnected expression. Either artistic or idealistic goals are necessary to achieve satisfaction.

Mercury in Growth Aspect to Jupiter

Learning to express the truth of any situation without exaggeration or self hyperbole is a long lesson.  Consistent refocusing on the higher implications of life, the moral and ethical significance of actions, has a refining effect on your mind.

Mercury Quincunx Jupiter

Exaggeration is second nature to you.  Whatever you focus on tends to grow in your mind without anything happening in the external world. Circumstances in life can easily seem much better or much worse than they really are.  Learn to trust other people's assessment and to judge life more on the concrete facts and less on moral pronouncements which tend to be very colored by self justification and avoidance.

Venus in Growth Aspect to Neptune

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

Venus Quincunx Neptune

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

Mars in Growth Aspect to Neptune

Just when you seem to have your aims and goals determined it's as if they evaporate or expand to some much larger context.  Your ideals always seem to be out of reach of your energy.  To compensate you may live in an alternate reality, escaping into fantasy where you control or create the rules or you become slightly cynical, feeling victimized by circumstances.  The way out is through slow, careful integration of your values and higher ideals bit by bit.  This requires patience and much trial and error reality testing.

Mars Quincunx Neptune

Your idealism and inflated expectations of others and life can lead you into very frustrating circumstances where you feel emotionally and physically drained.  Your energy and emotions strengthen as you learn how and where to be involved in other people's projects.  You have difficulty learning realistic boundaries with others and realistic limits as to what you can expect from yourself.  Artistic expression can help give form to your humanitarian temperament.

Jupiter in Growth aspect to Uranus

Learning how to turn your abrupt bursts of enthusiasm to your benefit becomes a mechanism for growth.  There is an inner belief that you can obtain freedom and personal satisfaction in life by throwing yourself into action quickly.  This is correct but you will have to work on the techniques of self expression and substance of your life goals in order to get the higher side of this aspect of your nature to function correctly.

Jupiter Quincunx Uranus

Overly ambitious, you have an intuitive grasp of the big picture, which stems from optimum flexibility of your values.  You are easily led by your impulses to quickly adjust to deep changes in your values. Without discipline you will be in trouble because your enthusiasm will carry you into uncharted waters.  Expression of your energy can get you into trouble.  Slowly, you learn to harness this expression into something truly creative.

     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 North Node of the Moon

Your life improves much through the assertion of your own unique creative energy.  You generally connect with people through your enthusiasm and natural inner positive qualities.  You have the ability to change yourself by changing your circle of friends and acquaintances.

Venus Parallel Mars

Romantic and creative imagery color your perceptions of others. A powerful attraction to members of the opposite sex gives your life motivation when all else fails to move you.  And you find it easier than most to awaken in others an interest in the sexual side of life.

Saturn Parallel North Node of the Moon

Your naturally conservative instincts are at the back of everything that you do that pulls you forward in life.  Slow and cautious is the best style for almost every project during the development stage of your work.  You are best when you are honoring the way that things have been in the past.  This keeps you grounded in the intensely practical.

Uranus Parallel Pluto

Your basic conflicting urges from deep within your being will rush forward every so often, causing you to make dramatic changes in your life.  As you get used to letting the need for uniqueness come forward and express itself, this aspect of your nature stops being so explosive and just becomes part of the inventiveness that makes you so fascinating.

Moon Contra-Parallel Neptune

There is a deep and sympathetic side to your nature.  You empathize with the less fortunate.  You trust your feelings to guide you in an inspirational manner in all of your dealings. There is a basic softness to your way that needs balance in order to for your feelings to be grounded enough to be productive.

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.

     F.  YOUR KARMIC DIRECTION

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

North Node of the Moon in Gemini

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

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

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