SECTION I.  The Structure and Intent of Your Life.

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

     A.  Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis

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

          1. Hemisphere

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

Most Planets Above the Horizon

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

Most Planets Setting

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

          2. Quadrant

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

Most Planets in the Third Quadrant

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

     B.  Elements and Modes

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

          1. Elements

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

Fire

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

Earth

You have an abundance of earth in your chart showing that you are a cautious and thorough person.  You build material security in life. If, for any reason, this isn't happening you feel miserable.  This can point to a problem of valuing the wrong things in life and chasing empty dreams.  Ask yourself how much you really need and let it go at that.  You can be an earnest and hard working person if over-acquisitiveness doesn't blind you.

Air

Jupiter is your only air planet.  You have 10% of your chart in the air element.  When you feel confident you are able to translate a higher ideal and a more inclusive social value into action.  Life doesn't always give you these opportunities for staying confident.  You see the abstract significance of events in your life, but have difficulty moving from personal experience to this bigger, more significant picture.  This can be a stumbling block for you as you alternately try to ignore the reasoning process altogether, then embrace it obsessively.  You work harder than most people at being "in tune" with others.

Water

Mercury is your only water planet.  You have 10% of your chart in water.  You have some difficulties developing a realistic, meaningful, personal, emotional life.  You communicate a more sensitive approach to others than you are able to live out on a daily basis.  You will spend some time trying to be more in touch with your feelings and to increase your empathy.

          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 an abundance of mutability in your chart.  You are a thinker and attempt to accommodate a number of circumstances and people in your environment.  You may have difficulty choosing a direction and staying with it.  Truth has a way of becoming a highly personal subjective factor; consequently, others think of you as not being able to communicate simple truths in a factual way.  You are nervous and may need more B-Vitamins in your diet, rest, and meditation in order to be balanced.

     C.  The Ascendant and Midheaven (Signs and Aspects)

          1.  The Ascendant

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

                             SCORPIO RISING

Let's face it, you're intense. You have boundless energy and employ it freely on any task at hand.  You need to be discriminating so that your efforts come to something.  You have difficulty changing course once you set sail, so make sure you are heading in the right direction before you set sail.  Others never really know you and a certain "loner" quality is within you.  This doesn't have to be lonely.  You are always fighting battles within your own soul that keep you preoccupied with your inner qualities.  You are secretive by inclination.  You hold your thoughts as precious and useful to you alone.  When you do wish to take someone into your inner life, words fail to describe your true inner feelings.  Strange as it may seem, you place a high value on relationships.  You go out of your way to bring them about and to maintain them.  Still, at your heart space, your marriage partner looking into your eyes has the distinct feeling of looking into "one way  mirrors".  Your emotional inner sanctuary is so private, it is only rarely that you let even yourself in.

Sun Square the Ascendant

You have a powerful and shining exterior that others find quite attractive.  People come into your life and are happy to know you. Still, you are a hard person to get close to because you have some personal inner conflicts that emerge in all of your relationships.  You use your interactions with others to see and work on your inner conflicts.  This is a very constructive process of growth through self-expression in connection with others, but it is not always comfortable.  You get happier as you get less willful.

Moon Semi-Square the Ascendant

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

Venus Sextile the Ascendant

Diplomacy and charm help you deal with people.  You wish closeness with those whom you share a similar cultural background.  The ability to express beauty will aid you in any career but is particularly helpful dealing with people as you naturally see alternative points of view.

Jupiter Quincunx the Ascendant

The river of life is full and you have a contribution to make. Self clarification comes easiest to you when you are able to see how you fit in with the needs of the culture.  Careful observation of how others express themselves and consistency of purpose help you achieve the happiness and feeling of genuineness that you want and deserve.

Neptune Semi-Square the Ascendant

Your sensitivity and ideals give you an innocence and beauty that others like, although you tend to be naive.  You believe in the strangest things and may end up being taken advantage of by others because you are gullible.  You are kind, but your judgment is often poor.  Learn more and more to see the world and people as they are, not as they could be.

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.

                              LEO MIDHEAVEN

You assume that career will look natural on you.   Whatever your social station is, you have high expectations for yourself.  You have a period of wandering in career, but when you really get involved with something, you can be deeply committed.  Your endurance alone tends to bring you positive results.  Your loyalty to people, ideas, and social structures are usually rewarded in some way.

Sun Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You have a rise in life based on the force of your personality and your natural ability to lead.  You win people to your cause and the  natural and lasting support you enjoy is based on your ability to set the tone of your life to a higher cause.  Your long range view of life functions as your security net.  You are able to defer immediate satisfaction in favor of the needs of future gains.

Moon Trine Midheaven

You are good with people.  You know instinctively what will please others and what will be problematic.  After you have become comfortable with yourself and your own ways, you are at home in the general public.

Mars Trine Midheaven

You have a large amount of extra energy to put into your career. You execute your plans swiftly.  You are good at being able to spot an opportunity and to capitalize on it.  You work well by yourself or in a position of leadership and generally, you find your niche.

Jupiter Sextile Midheaven

You are lucky, optimistic, and confident.  You have a good sense of timing in career situations and are good at organizing work and motivating others.  People tend to like your positive spirit.

     D. The Conjunctions.

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

Sun Conjunct Pluto

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

Mercury Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections IV. MERCURY - Your mental life, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as a single unit.  This Conjunction is a central indicator of the way you interact with people and your environment

Saturn Conjunct Uranus

Think of Sections VIII. SATURN - Your obligations, and IX. URANUS -Your search for freedom, as a single unit.  This Conjunction represents an inner emotional tension that either strengthens or weakens your life depending on how it is integrated into the rest of your personality. In either case, this principle is a central feature of 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 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 9th house

Your vision is lofty.  You concentrate on the "big picture" and the far away seems more interesting than the close and familiar. You can be a good risk taker.  Your energy and idealism can be quite an inspiration to those around you.  When you are in your "people person" mode of operation your interests gravitate toward the outdoors, sports and competitive activities.

Sun in 9th house Unafflicted

You have a good sense for rapid advancement.  You are a builder and know how to take advantage of opportunity.  You are able to find ways of overcoming the limits of your environment and consequently will have some long distance communication and travel as part of your experience enhancement picture.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

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

SUN SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR MOON

Impulses will pit long range goals against immediate gratification. Getting your timing right is a good first step in getting your emotional needs to operate in step with your ego drives.  Thirst for new experiences and wider horizons force some sacrifices on you.

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 SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  MARS

You are full of energy.  When you get excited about a project you are very enthusiastic and quick to act on a plan.  Your sense of right and wrong translate into action.  You are brave, willing to "stand up for what you see as right".

SUN TRINE YOUR MARS

Your vitality and endurance are strong and unstoppable.  You are physically active and have inspirational qualities that give your nature some leadership qualities.  You are going somewhere and wish others to follow you.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You are lucky and optimistic.  You are frank and direct with people without being hurtful.  You are responsible and benevolent and can see how to get things done.  You go through several changes in life which leave you in improved circumstances.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR JUPITER

Self-esteem abounds and you are able to help others primarily through example.  Because you are comfortable and confident with yourself, you assume an aura of authority.  Since others recognize this optimistic outlook in you, and because you have a tendency to instill confidence, you rise in life.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

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

SUN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your idealism can lead to deception and self-deception.  Further, you are vulnerable to being led to the wrong conclusions by other people's suggestions.  It takes a good amount of mental discipline to make sure that your ideals and suspicions don't overrun your common sense.

SUN CONJUNCT PLUTO

You have a powerful will and a dogmatic determination to get to your goal.  There is a lonely quality to you that emerges from a self-imposed insulation (or isolation).  Few people ever really get to know you in a very personal way.  Still you find this life very productive.  You keep approaching your selected goals whether it takes years, decades or even millenniums.  Even you don't see how committed you are to the long-range goals until you carefully evaluate the path of decision-making in your life. There is a pioneering and self-confident aura about you that works itself out through self-reform.

SECTION III.  The MOON - Your Personal Life.

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

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

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

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

MOON IN SAGITTARIUS

You see yourself as a person of real consequence.  Your imagination is thrust into action with very little prompting. You are warm and have fun-loving relationships for the most part, but you are very independent.  You like to explore, travel, learn and disseminate knowledge.  You are an honorable person who is having a life of developing a higher intuition through the gathering of experience.

Moon in 2nd house

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

Moon in 2nd house Afflicted

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

MOON IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR 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 SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

You believe in the unbelievable and spend hours concentrating on things that are beautiful to you but will not happen.  You can be charming but naive.  A deep understanding of your drives and motivations help bring balance.

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 CANCER

Your mind is colorful and very emotional.  You have a retentive memory and a great imagination.  You have the ability to express yourself with a good amount of emotional force.  When you are hurt, worried, scared or angry, you may not reveal to others what is really on your mind.  The emotional content of your mind may prejudge your perception of what other people are doing or why they are doing it. Aim to be more balanced.  You adjust under unpleasant circumstances easily if nothing that you rely on for emotional security is threatened.  When home, family or a love object are uncertain, you can be very disturbed.  You need to develop new solutions rather than using a patchwork of old methods.

Mercury in 9th house

You have an interest in travel that comes from a desire to expand your understanding of life.  Adventure and change are always ingredients of your life.  You are forever searching out new avenues of understanding, as you have a persistent drive to find the truth.  You are most successful in life when you learn to harness your enthusiasm for expansion with consistent effort.

Mercury in 9th house Unafflicted

You are an inspiration to others.  You are good at finding the "quick fix" because your mind looks at the big picture and sees many options. You are blessed with a genuine thirst for knowledge.  You are not just interested in the content of information, but also in its effect on people.

MERCURY SEMI-SQUARE VENUS

You have a real interest in communicating your thoughts to others; you have a pleasing manner of expression.  However, you will occasionally hurt your cause by telling people what you think they want to hear rather than what you really believe.  Try to be consistent in thought and speech.  You will experience more stress in the short run but greater peace of mind.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You have a disciplined mind and the good fortune to see the virtue in the slow, careful, and picky approach to a problem. You have ability in business, accounting, planning, and teaching. There is a solemn, peaceful side to your mind and you may withdraw periodically to reevaluate your life experiences.  You can sometimes suffer from waiting for something that never comes or investing more time and money in a project that was a bad investment to begin with.  Always enter a project with a predetermined time and energy cutoff point and you will seldom be disappointed.

MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR SATURN

You are cautious, disciplined and careful in your mental life. Early on, you figure out that your thirst for knowledge, organizing ability, and good memory are strengthening for you and help you at any job or career.  Intellectual interests are a powerful motivator in any relationship.  You like patience and consistency, admiring more mature people.  You place a high value on integrity and being responsible.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

Lightning flashes of insight periodically send your life off in a new direction.  Your intuitions are very accurate and you see to the core of an issue rapidly.  You are very good at finding a shortcut that periodically intersects a major highway in life. For this reason you have a very useful as well as inventive mind. You succeed in any environment where you are allowed to contribute new methods and applications.  You have the uncanny ability to speak others' thoughts before they surface.  This makes you a hit while brainstorming or in any progressive circle of people. You have a natural interest in astrology, alternative healing, and New Age subjects.

MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR URANUS

Your mind is alive with new ideas and strategies.  You are alert, versatile and insightful in your approach to life.  Impatience and nervous exhaustion are your enemies.  Your outlook is progressive and creative and your viewpoint will change as new information is acquired.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You see the future in everything that you do.  You aspire to some long range goal or value.  This may surface in a spiritual longing or in an artistic pursuit.  You have talent for creating beauty and a natural eye for what looks nice.  You do well in any career that engages your ability for aesthetic design.  You have powerful and often quite accurate premonitions.  Learn to work with and integrate your psychic perceptions.

MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR NEPTUNE

Compassionate and psychologically attuned to another higher dimension, you communicate to others in picture imagery.  You are an idealist and have an ability to communicate your special ideal to others.

MERCURY CONJUNCT PLUTO

You have a powerful and stubborn mind.  You are a great researcher and a good detective.  This doesn't always help in your personal life.  Others may find you too suspicious, too challenging, or too secretive.  You are always mulling things over inside of yourself.  You live in a sea of mental symbolism. You respond to implications and inferences rather than to people, circumstances and events. You have a special knack for mathematics, symbolic logic, computers, biology, and meditation. At times your mind will overload and you seem to do a reversal, overlooking the simplest details that others take for granted. Get rest and learn when to stop and start.

SECTION V.  VENUS - Your Love Nature.

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

VENUS IN VIRGO

Your great love in life is purity and service.  You are detached to the point of being cold at times.  You want to be of help to others and stabilize your own nature through established routines and rituals.  You like order and perfection.  When you are troubled you find peace through isolation and the avoidance of all intimacy.  Your feelings don't run particularly deep but they find practical expression and you are someone who can be counted on.

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 IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect of Venus to the Sun showing that you identify at a very fundamental level with your ability to express the loving, genteel side of your nature.  This aspect of your nature was commented on in some detail in Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You have extravagant taste and certain primitive vanities that leave you vulnerable to being manipulated and used by others. You have difficulties in telling who your real friends are. Money and good times come to you but they tend to be unstable. Your romantic life is very unsettling even though very interesting.  Overindulgence gets you into trouble more than once but for all your flaws people basically like you so you stay "people rich" even when you are "dollar poor".  Money comes and goes in great quantities and when you learn to save you have security.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR JUPITER

You like money and adornments.  You have good taste, but, sometimes it's too good.  You can get into trouble through overindulgence; staying on a budget is almost impossible for you. You are vain and others manipulate you through your own bloated picture of yourself.  An honest self-appraisal and some reasonable restraint is the way to guaranty that your love of life, people, and nice things don't get you into trouble.  Good luck comes to you, don't throw it away.

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 ARIES

Your desires are strong and you have an instinctive aim toward all that brings independence.  You are bursting with primal energy.  Your method for getting what you want is direct, forceful, without much control.  Your general attitude is positive and when you want something you don't take "no" because you don't hear it.  Your life improves by learning to understand others' point of view.

Mars in 5th house

You have a gift for dynamic self-expression.  The theatrical side of your nature comes out as assertion and stage presence.  Your love of excitement can translate into adventure, extravagance, a dangerous hobby, or gambling.  Your children may remind you very much of your own childhood and there may be a close identification because of this.

Mars in 5th house Unafflicted

The world responds favorably to your natural flamboyance.  You are a natural teacher in many ways.  Make sure you have a physical outlet for your exuberance.  You can be a powerful and attentive lover.

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You are energetic and very competitive.  Sports are the perfect arena for you to assert yourself.  Whatever you put your attention on comes to something.  Your material lot in life improves as you get older. You have the ability to believe in yourself and your projects.  This single attribute is responsible for directing the energy of the universe in a way favorable to you.  In this sense you are truly lucky.

MARS SEXTILE YOUR JUPITER

A fun loving exuberance gives you a dynamic and innovative approach to the way you express your energy.  You instinctively know how best to use what energy you have.  Your vitality is cyclical and if you use good judgment in terms of timing you can be an excellent competitor in any field.

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.

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 GEMINI

Your primary value is information.  You are perpetually bubbling over with new ideas and always anxious for more input.  This is because you have an innate belief that knowledge can solve all problems that emerge in life.  You try to relate all factors that come to you to everything else that you know about.  As a consequence, you develop great mental versatility and acquire skill at verbal expression.  Your love of novelty may lead your energy in too many directions at once. The big difficulty in life for you is to be spread so thin that you have no closure on any subject.  Make sure your knowledge of a subject is not so general as to be superficial.

Jupiter in 8th house

Your mind is instinctively led toward life's mysteries.  You take great joy in finding life's basic causes and being involved with people's primary concerns in life of food, clothing and shelter. You are attracted to the occult and to issues of sexuality and emotional expression.  You are a natural researcher and need time alone each day.

Jupiter in 8th house Unafflicted

You have a rich and meaningful personal life.  Your emotional expression is very important to you although it may be quite a private issue.  You have a good mind and heart for basic social causes.  You work well in some capacity for social change.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO 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 IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have an aspect of Jupiter to Mars.  This aspect shows that you have an optimistic spirit and have the ability to assert your desires. Your enthusiasm may come forward as combativeness or as competition but in either case you are a lively participant in life.  Your values and your energy emerge as zest for living. This aspect is commented on further in Section VI.  Mars - Your Energy.

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 TAURUS

You fear not having money or being dependent on anyone else.  You are solid, practical, trustworthy and thrifty.  You defend yourself against the outside world by racking up material success.  You are security-oriented.  You can become too stubborn and cut off from others.  When life becomes too premeditated you need to break the tyranny of thinking that you are your possessions.  Have more fun!

Saturn in 7th house

You look to relationships to bring you stability.  You may marry someone older than you who represents security or someone who needs help where you can serve them.  Your need to help others can be at least partially fulfilled through an intelligent career plan.

Saturn in 7th house Unafflicted

You have very faithful partners.  You look to build toward a secure future with others.  You may feel others don't hear you or are ignoring you.  Patience and persistence bring results.

SATURN IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

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

SATURN CONJUNCT URANUS

You are often caught in some inner struggle to adopt the new and discard the old.  There is an iconoclastic streak in you that is always trying to compensate and overcome your fears and frustrations with the way things have always been.  Adjustment is easy on the surface but underneath you experience tension.  You have an inner core of strength that serves you well.  Persistence gets you to your goals.

SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

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

SATURN TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

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

SECTION IX.  URANUS - Your Search For Freedom.

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

URANUS IN TAURUS

You are passionate but manifest clearly the principle of inertia; thus, acting immediately and directly on your feelings is quite. You express your uniqueness more through "won't power" than will power. You are the immovable object.  Your creativity can emerge more fully and more positively when you pay attention to your security instincts by acting in accordance with the principles of our changing society, instead of being stuck in the past.

Uranus in 7th house

You like unique and unusual people.  Engaging with others brings out a healthy competition and helps in the production of new ideas.  You have a romantic streak and you get involved with unusual people quite suddenly.

Uranus in 7th house Unafflicted

You make an exciting partner.  You take and give a tremendous amount of freedom.  You help others develop a spirit of independence.  You attract a variety of interesting people into your life.  People will often share a part of themselves with you that stays hidden much of the time.

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

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.

URANUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You have an interest in spiritual subjects and are inclined to live out one of your higher visions of truth at some time in this life. You project a big picture of the possible in society.  Your unconscious mind is a forceful, creative energy that bursts forth every so often.

URANUS TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

You have a deep underlying faith in openness and democratic ideals. Your actions are colored by an unconscious belief that the most positive conclusion to life events will occur.  Your natural movement toward freedom and self expression finds you riding a wave of cultural change.

URANUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

Your unusual sense of timing and peculiar ideas get a fair hearing even though you are way out of focus from the conscious direction of the world.  You are blessed with some mechanical skills as well as possessing some deeper insight into people's motivation.  In relationships you are always touching sensitive places in others' consciousness, forcing them to grow.

URANUS SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

Great social forces afoot during your life can be a source of complete change of direction for you.  You know how to go with forces greater than your own life.  You are led by the logic of experience and your adjustment to it in order to achieve personal freedom in some dimension of life, even if this freedom is limited.

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 VIRGO

You believe in a better world through technology and scientific innovation.  You can be quite analytic.  The practical concerns of life are more stimulating than the purely theoretical and speculative. You are utility minded and hold on to the ideal of service as a way to improve life.

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 Unafflicted

You bring an attractive, higher outlook to your social life.  On the other hand, because of this it is quite difficult to be "one of the boys" because you have a deep need to uphold a higher standard.  Until you become truly comfortable with yourself you may feel quite lonely.

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.

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 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 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.

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 SEXTILE.

You are comprehensive in your outlook.  Your inclination is to seek help and to change directions when you run into problems. Not that you lack fortitude, it is just that you are able to see an easier way to bring about changes than fighting.  You have the ability to create opportunity by altering the focus of a situation to become favorable to you and your projects.  You are the master of blending ingredients together and coming up with new opportunities.  Your keyword is Synthesis.

YOU HAVE NO PLANETARY OPPOSITIONS.

You are great at being able to manifest the direction that you choose for yourself in life.  This doesn't mean that decisions come easy for you or that you are always successful in achieving your goals, just that you are able to get your life functioning in the way that you would like.  You are fast to learn that power and growth come to you by accepting responsibility for yourself and your life.

     B.  YOUR EASIEST AREAS.

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

Well-Aspected Saturn.

You know your limits.  This single quality can stop you from getting into any deep troubles as you instinctively pull back to preserve your gains before you become too vulnerable.  The conservative side of your personality is an asset.

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 the Second House.

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

Mars in Aries.

Energy is your secret key to success.  Your quick responses to changes in circumstances and hard-hitting attitudes that uphold your desires bring you victory.  Being impulsive works for you.

Saturn in the Seventh House.

You work out a sense of purpose through your relationships.  You have a golden opportunity to remove obstacles to growth in your personality directly by working on the key relationships in your life.

     C.  YOUR MOST PERSISTENT DIFFICULTIES.

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

Afflicted Moon

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

Afflicted Venus

You sell yourself short in love.  You have great difficulty getting your true emotional intentions to the surface and self-expression can be awkward, overly self-conscious, or ineffective in achieving your heart's desire.  The key to personal development in love and interpersonal expression lays in setting your emotional priorities. This leads to less conflict and to the experience of more satisfaction.

Mercury in the Ninth House

Bend your perceptions toward the big picture without leaving the day-to-day details undone.  You can be visionary if you avoid the grandiose.

Venus in Virgo

You are service-oriented in your expression of love for others, for you wish to be of help.  But, you need to feel better about yourself so that you can give and receive love based more on who you are, and less on what you do.

Jupiter in Gemini

Your values are shortsighted and your "devil-may-care" approach to life may get you in trouble if you don't restrain your inclination to get involved with new projects.  You must develop the habit of taking stock of the long view before jumping into something that will give you new responsibilities while leaving prior commitments unfinished.  You do well when you complete your current project before taking on a new one.

Uranus in Taurus

The drive toward expanse tends to be derailed by the security impulse. Instead of looking for freedom by satisfying your wants, look for freedom from wanting at all as the way to growth.  Real security is inner security.

Neptune in Virgo

When the manifestation of your ideals is blocked, you interpret the situation as a problem of either inadequacy of technique or as lack of pertinent details.  The truth of the matter is that you need to expand your faith in the power of your ideals and values.  Don't fear change and correction and your aim in life will naturally be raised.

     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 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.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Mercury

You have an opportunity to learn about your feelings by discussing them with others.  Further, as you get used to expressing your emotions more directly and spontaneously you develop better forms of articulation. This, in turn, allows you deeper access to your feelings.

Moon Quincunx Mercury

You end up confused at times because you read more into communications than are there.  It's good to be able to read between the lines - just make sure you are also reading what is on the lines.  Your expectations and imagination are assets as soon as you are able to develop a method for expressing your true feelings.  Since many of your feelings are hidden from you, self expression becomes a path of self discovery.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Saturn

Confusion over your personal worth, identity or responsibility can create difficulty with career achievement and emotional connections.  A long developmental process of trial and error can help you overcome your shyness and help you form a more productive picture of yourself.

Moon Quincunx Saturn

Your assumptions about life and yourself are colored by your early childhood experience of inconsistency and uncertainty about your parents' roles.  They seem to have been reversed.  This has left you uncertain as to what to do or what you are capable of in life.  As you become more certain as to your true responsibilities in life, your vision clears as to what you can accomplish.  This is also the key to becoming more productive. Through accomplishment you can become more knowledgeable as to how your habits and procedures affect the life circumstances in which you find yourself.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Uranus

A certain underlying erratic action can prevent you from being as productive with your energy as you would like.  You will need to develop meaningful outlets for your nervous temperament while learning to integrate the spontaneous side of your nature in a positive way with the more pensive and more traditional sides of your personality.

Moon Quincunx Uranus

You may have to sort through the "hidden messages" you received as a child in order to make sense out of some of your adult actions.  You act, at times, without any forethought.  This is because you are driven by forces out of your immediate awareness. Your spontaneous bursts of enthusiasm either serve you well or they don't.  Early in life you may have been "told" that you should be different, but, your differences will stop you from succeeding.  It takes time and adjustment to really learn that it's okay to be both unique and successful.

     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 Saturn

There is a deep melancholy aspect to your personality that will tend to color all that you do in life.  You have great capacity for careful and very exacting work.  There is a definite need to pay close attention to the happenings in life so that you are able to see what you do that causes difficulties and hard feelings. Patience, discipline and positive intentions are necessary to overcome feelings of distrust for life.

Mercury Parallel Jupiter

You have the common sense and intelligence to learn the necessary ingredients for any project that you undertake.  Your optimistic expansive nature will get you into overly complex situations with ever expanding horizons, but this is good as this increases your philosophic understanding of every life circumstance.

Mars Parallel Neptune

You have a powerful charismatic side to your personality that is hidden in your depths.  When you are able to tap into this quality in a positive way you help other people reach for a positive ideal within themselves.  You have the perfection of an idea living inside of you as a vision.  Manifesting it comes when you are true to your highest calling.

Mars Parallel North Node of the Moon

You have a dynamic energy about you that propels you forward in life. When in doubt, your ability to assess yourself must be called upon to give the extra effort to make the needed progress. You have a strong, forceful aspect to your physical nature that you can call on during moments of crisis.

Neptune Parallel North Node of the Moon

You are attracted to some higher principles in life but you may get confused as to understanding your own motivations.  How to get the best of your personality to connect with others?  This is the question that eventually leads you into a positive relationship with the civilization you are living in.

Sun Contra-Parallel Moon

You will integrate the early habit patterns from your childhood into the core of your personality.  Until this happens you will have many changes in your life pattern. On the other side of this adjustment, you are a very stable personality upon which other people can depend. You possess great strength that is not always evident to others.

Moon Contra-Parallel Saturn

You need to feel secure in life and your striving for love and acceptance doesn't always sustain what it is that you are doing. Your methods of achievement can be misplaced in that they don't bring you the end that you want.  You have a natural skill in being able to sustain a long term plan.

     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 Virgo

Be as specific as you can be and avoid retreat into escapist fantasies. The more detailed you are in life the faster you learn.  The more factual and analytic you are the quicker life moves forward.  Real progress is incremental, where you recognize, catalogue, and can replicate, every step of the journey.  The more you adopt a procedural and non-emotional approach to your projects the further and faster you move toward achieving your goals.  Be practical and patient.

North Node of the Moon in Virgo and in the Eleventh House

Working for the good of the whole betters your life.  When you find yourself in creative projects that take your focus away from your developing awareness of society and the culture, you may be slipping into nonproductive behavior reflective of your tendency to emotionally regress.  Keep your aim at things which bring betterment to humanity and the world.  Remember, your life improves through practice, not theory.  However, since you need to have the right plan to advance, discussing your direction with others before acting gives some insurance that grand plans aren't just some form of emotional self-indulgence.
