Introduction
The report that you are about to read is a first step in decoding the symbolic
language of your birth chart. It explains the raw materials that you have been
given for building a life. It outlines how the overall shape of your chart
reflects the overall shape of your personality, what your greatest challenges
are likely to be, the strengths you have been given to meet these challenges,
and the main arenas you are given for playing out your life’s drama.
In this report you may notice certain places where the information seems to be contradictory. This is to be expected, because people are complex. For example, in some situations we are shy and in others, aggressive. When you see repeated patterns, though, take special note: these are apt to be the dominant themes in your life.

The Main Emphasis in
Your Chart
The general distribution of planets around you at your birth is one of the
things that shows the overall shape of your personality. Before taking a
closer look at the details, let’s stand back for a moment to see whether
your chart contains any obvious emphasis in a sign, group of signs, or other
division of the horoscope wheel.
Most planets are in the eastern half of the
chart.
You prefer to be in charge of your own destiny, rather than following someone
else's dreams, adventures, projects or proposals. This tends to make you an
outgoing, active person, in charge of your affairs. Independent and outwardly
directed, you are conscious of the direction in which you lead your life. An
entrepreneurial pursuit of some type will find you at your best. You need
followers to help you, so be sure that you attract those who are willing to
follow your vision. Be clear, however, as to who is in charge. Joining forces
with someone as strong-minded as you may cause the kind of stress that will
distract you from your goals. Make all possible allowances for practicality;
and then go ahead and pursue your vision.
Most planets are below the horizon.
Your personal sense of identity is very important to you. Who you are and
where you have come from are constant sources of interest to you. Your
understanding of your cultural heritage and family roots will help you to
determine your direction and goals in life. You feel that answers to important
questions can best be found within, rather than in the outer world or in a
relationship. Self-awareness and self-composure allow you to be self-assured
in your career and relationships.
Most planets are above the horizon.
You tend to identify who you are with what you have accomplished in the world.
This may make you highly competitive in establishing yourself within a
definable lifestyle or career. Your trophy case or the diplomas on your wall
may be a source of great personal satisfaction. It is important to balance
your need for outer-world-accomplishments with care for your inner self. Also,
take great care not to lose sight of the needs of your loved ones.
There are many planets in Fire signs.
With many planets in either Aries, Leo or Sagittarius, you are likely to be
one of the original self-starters. Passionate and full of strong feelings and
ideals, you do not need external stimuli to get you moving in new directions.
Drama is your mantra. Perceiving life as a game with high stakes, you are just
as passionate when you win as when you lose.
In many ways you act and feel as if the world revolves around you, and sometimes it does. You tend to dominate your sphere, and when you come across other Fire types you instantly like or dislike them with no feelings in-between.
You are devoted to your ideals and beliefs, and will play the game to the end, displaying your boundless enthusiasm no matter what the outcome. You despise static, unchanging and unyielding situations, and will put forth your best efforts to change them. With your courage, energy and dramatic flair, you can be an effective leader, and will be the first in line to explore uncharted regions.
Your tendency to act first and think later, however, may lead others to accuse you of insensitivity. Learn to be more aware of others’ feelings. Realize that your actions affect others’ lives in ways that you may not have considered. Remember to develop sensitivity and appraise situations intellectually before you act with your heart.
There are many planets in Mutable signs.
Your chart’s strong emphasis in signs like Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and
Pisces makes you tend to be extremely flexible. When the situation demands
that you change in order to move forward, you can adapt and transform yourself
with ease. You are not necessarily the pioneering type, but if change must
happen, it is natural for you to glide along with the flow. At times, though,
you feel that you are at the mercy of forces beyond your control, and are
constantly being blown from pole to pole. This may make you feel nervous and
anxious, but like everything else in your life, this, too, will pass.
There is an unusual number of planets in
Sagittarius.
You have an all-consuming desire to understand the way everything relates to
everything else, to see the overall patterns that connect things. As such, you
have an insatiable appetite for knowledge, particularly in abstract studies
like science, philosophy and religion. You demand the freedom to pursue your
current interests now, no matter what the cost. Indeed, the worst thing that
can happen to you is to feel trapped by a dead-end career, a moribund
relationship, or a barren philosophy.
Aspects: Keys to Your
Inner Drama
In your birth chart, the Sun, Moon and planets play the central role. They are
the actors in the drama, the moving figures on the stage, each with a
character of its own. How these characters relate to each other, whether and
how they clash or harmonize, whether they bring out each other’s best or
worst qualities, is shown by the aspects, or angles, between the planets.
Is the ongoing drama between two planets a continuing tension that periodically erupts into crises (conjunctions, oppositions and squares), a harmonious alliance where the two planets aid and abet each other (trines and sextiles), an uneasy truce full of ambiguities (certain other aspects in neither of these families), or simply indifference (no aspect at all)? Below you will see which pairs of planets are in aspect in your chart.
Each of the following sections lists the aspects in order of their general importance, with aspects involving the Sun, Moon and fast-moving planets coming first. You can get a further idea of their importance in your particular chart by going to the aspect table at the beginning of this report and finding the five or so aspects with the smallest number of degrees and minutes in the “The orb is” column.
Your Major Challenges
We start with your conjunctions, oppositions and squares because these tend to
point out the challenges that you have been set in life. Mose people
experience these aspects as problems, at least at first. Armed with awareness,
however, you can come to view these so-called “ hard” aspects as the
blessings that they really are. These are the forces that spur you forward.
When you face the challenges that these aspects pose, you grow in strength,
confidence, wisdom and maturity.
Sun square Pluto
You have enough charisma, will and ambition to become a presidential candidate
or, at the very least, a leader in your chosen line of endeavor. The danger is
that you tend to use and manipulate others to get what you want. Sometimes,
you get away with it. At other times, you may find that you’ve stepped on
the toes of someone even more powerful than you, and just as you’re about to
reach your long-sought goal, your hopes are dashed. Only then are you open to
learning the lessons of tact and humility. It may be too late to save the
situation this time around, but if you can learn to respect the rights of
others, you will eventually be unstoppable.
Moon square Mars
Your moods are so changeable and you are so restless and full of energy that
it can be difficult for others to deal with you on a regular basis. Since
irritability and a tendency to argue do not make for pleasant companionship,
you need to find some way to use up your prodigious energy in ways that will
not be threatening to others. Sports or other vigorous activities can be an
excellent outlet. Your temper is quick and explosive and you must learn to
contain it. Because you tend to take action only after strong emotional input,
try to seek out the advice of a respected and practical friend before you make
major decisions.
Moon opposite Uranus
There is an ongoing tension in your life between the need to be close and
comforting with your loved ones, and the need to be free, independent and
detached. You are painfully aware of the problems that this causes. It
manifests in sudden, inexplicable emotional outbursts at the most
inappropriate times. These outbursts are very difficult for you to control,
and very embarrassing to you after the fact. It will be important for those
who love you to give you as much freedom as you ask for, and it will be as
equally important that you respect and trust them when they do so.
Moon conjunct Chiron
Compassionate and emotional, you are dutiful and sensitive to the needs of
your family, friends and community. Fearful of being overpowered, you may shy
away from long-term commitment. Once someone sweeps you off your feet,
however, you are completely devoted. Extremely responsible and willing to take
charge, you can damage your health by working too many hours. You do not
always express yourself very clearly. Rather than wait for others to guess
what you are thinking, ask for what you need.
Mercury conjunct Ascendant
Others provide you with the constant intellectual stimulation that you need in
order to feel comfortable. You are a fund of information for others, too. They
seek you out because you are usually up to date on all the currently
interesting topics. You need the give and take that sharing ideas with others
provides. Known for your wit and sparkling conversation, you nevertheless have
to avoid the tendency to chatter mindlessly or to indulge in rumor and gossip.
Venus square Jupiter
Things come easily for you. No matter what your circumstances, rich or poor,
you seem to attract situations that make your path through life smooth and
unruffled. This often works to your detriment, however. You have a tendency to
be overly self-indulgent, always overdoing things — buying too many clothes
or eating too much rich food — and you may not have the discipline to
control your budget or your expanding waistline.
Mars square Uranus
You have a high level of energy, and it is rarely under control. You should be
prepared at all times to face the unexpected, because the only thing that you
can be sure of is that the unexpected will occur. Your daredevil, eccentric
approach to life makes accidents (both of the physical and psychological
variety) likely because you tend not to follow the dictates of common sense.
Your natural rebelliousness pushes you to choose the more dangerous road, so
remember to keep your seat belt buckled.
Mars conjunct North Node
You prefer the companionship of others rather than trying to go it alone. You
are aggressive by nature and your competitive instinct is strong, so you
should be aware that others might not always greet you in a spirit of
cooperation. There will be a certain amount of bickering and quarreling in
your environment, and you will probably thrive on it. If you ever feel bored
or restless, it’s probably time to move on to something else. Careers or
hobbies that allow you to use your physical strength or courage will satisfy
your nature and channel your aggressive drives.
Mars square Chiron
You are desperately afraid of losing your temper and unnecessarily hurting
someone. To control yourself, make an even greater effort at peacemaking.
Attempt to listen and reflect on what others say, and don’t slip into old
habits and patterns. If self-control still eludes you, activities that provide
physical relief and a competitive outlet may help you rid yourself of excess
aggression.
Saturn conjunct Ascendant
In this position Saturn becomes a major keynote in your chart. You have a
serious, sober and practical attitude toward life. Because you project an air
of reliability, others trust and respect you and count on you to provide
structure and order. Rather than having many social interactions, you are so
disciplined and self- contained that you may actually prefer to be left on
your own. Though your relationships may be few, they are likely to be deep and
long lasting. You prefer the company of those that are older and wiser and,
when you become that way yourself, you will relate best to those who respect
your wisdom and practicality.
Uranus square Nodes
You find it extremely difficult to form any sort of long-term relationship
(except maybe in the case of those with whom you’re most intimate — family
and loved ones, for example). But casual relationships don’t go well if you’re
not allowed perfect and total freedom of self-expression. Any deviation from
this causes you to become quarrelsome, irritable and restless in the extreme.
This can of course lead to misunderstandings and separations. If you try to
structure your life in such a way that you’re not committed to any set
routine in your daily doings, you’ll feel much more comfortable dealing with
people in social situations.
Chiron opposite Uranus
Due to separation from a parent or lack of communication in your earliest
environment, you have difficulty in sharing and opening up to others.
Creative, independent and yet high-strung, you will be successful so long as
you develop patience and refrain from being provocative. Asserting a contrary
opinion or taking an unpopular stance for the sake of rebellion can be as
disruptive and destructive as it can be creative and productive. As life goes
on, you will get the knack of being spontaneous without provoking others.
Neptune conjunct North Node
You have such high expectations when it comes to forming even the most casual
of relationships that you often become quite disappointed when others act only
too human. But your spirit is rarely daunted — you keep hoping for the best
no matter how many times you’re let down. You’re the perfect person to be
recruited for some noble, high-minded cause. You don’t mind sacrificing your
time and energy as long as the ultimate goal appeals to your ideals. You do
tend to be a bit naive though, so be careful to not let others take advantage
of your good nature.
Chiron square Nodes
Despite your own fears and protests, you will often be called upon to give
your opinion and offer your assistance. You have a remarkable gift for
helping, yet you are afraid to take the responsibility. Resisting the talents
that you naturally have will not prevent others from noticing them. Though
developing confidence is not an easy task, helping others is the ultimate
reward. Yoga and meditation can foster discipline and give you faith in
yourself.
Your Sustaining
Strengths
Trines and sextiles tend to work with a natural harmony that calls for little
effort on your part. They show the things that you just seem naturally good
at. Usually they point to the more positive parts of your nature, and act as
support that you can call on in difficult times.
Because these aspects are so comfortable, they are not likely to push you to expand your limits or cause you to change. It is actually helpful to have a balance of hard aspects (like oppositions and squares) to stimulate you to grow, and soft aspects (trines and sextiles) to ease your passage and provide places to rest.
If you are blessed with a predominance of trines and sextiles, your life may tend to be placid and your nature serene. If so, remember that the world around you is probably sorely in need of these qualities that are yours to bestow.
Moon sextile Saturn
Others turn to you in times of crisis because you have the ability to remain
cool under fire. You will work long and hard to make order out of chaos, and
have a practical, serious, unemotional approach to living that inspires
confidence in others. This can give you great managerial and administrative
talent. Emotionally reserved, you take a while before committing yourself to
others. Once you take the plunge, though, you are a loyal and devoted friend.
Moon sextile Ascendant
You relate easily to people, especially on an emotional level. You have the
ability to sense the needs of others almost intuitively and are sincerely
interested in their welfare. Honest and direct, you wear your heart on your
sleeve and others appreciate that. At times, you are overly effusive, but that
is easily forgiven since your enthusiasm is from the heart — there is
nothing phony about you.
Moon trine Midheaven
You relate well to others because you are aware of their needs and will go out
of your way to be sympathetic and understanding. But the reverse is also true
in that you need the approval and support of others in order to feel that you
are doing the right thing. When left on your own, you tend to be fearful and
full of self-doubts, although your constant socializing rarely lets this
become an issue.
Mercury sextile Jupiter
You have multiple intellectual interests and enjoy reading or traveling in
order to broaden your horizons. Also, you are known for your sound judgment.
This is because you have the ability to see the whole picture and form clear,
reasonable opinions. You are generally tolerant and open-minded, traits that
allow others to seek you out for help with their problems.
Jupiter sextile Ascendant.
You have a generous, affable nature that causes you to be well liked by almost
all of your peers. You have a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong
and your balanced and tolerant opinions are respected and admired. Extremely
sociable, you enjoy traveling to foreign or exotic places to broaden your
horizons. You have many friends and associates from a broad spectrum of
society. Your cheerful optimism makes you welcome anywhere.
Saturn trine Uranus
You are known to be able to take on a tough task — one where everything
seems to be filled with tension, with opposing forces threatening to pull
everything apart — and bring about a reasonable sense of order and
structure. But, once things are going along smoothly, you lose interest in the
project. You need both tension and structure in order to feel like you are
alive. To paraphrase the old Chinese saying: “You love to live in
interesting times.”
Saturn sextile Midheaven
When you have decided on a life goal, you have the ability to work long and
hard to accomplish it. You are unafraid of taking care of the minor but
important details necessary to bring something to a successful conclusion.
Your ability to proceed in a disciplined, orderly manner earns you the
rightful reputation of a perfectionist, a reputation that you are justly proud
of. You are ideally suited to being either an administrator or a teacher.
Saturn sextile Chiron
You are no stranger to hard work, effort and discipline. You must, however,
strive for self-confidence and belief in yourself. Don’t go through life
thinking that you are misunderstood. Learn to express your feelings and to ask
for assistance when you need it. Infinitely patient, focused and persevering,
you can weather any storm, accomplish what you set out to do, and overcome any
obstacles that cross your path.
Uranus sextile Midheaven
Your ability to see things in a fresh light and to suggest new and unusual
solutions to problems will be a great asset in your career development.
However, your demand to be free to call your own shots and proceed as you see
fit will probably not go well over the long haul — your career may see many
changes as you move from one interesting set of challenges to another. You are
naturally attracted to fields requiring the ability to understand and
effectively deal with highly complex technologies.
Neptune sextile Pluto
You, and society as a whole, are witnessing a gradual spiritual transformation
that affects everything that you encounter. A solid foundation for protecting
the rights of individuals (and especially the underprivileged) was being laid
in the era when you were born, so that those in the future will have an equal
opportunity to grow, evolve and gain greater understanding.
Chiron trine Midheaven
Once you discover new and exciting forms of self-healing or therapy, you
cannot wait to introduce them to everyone with whom you come in contact.
Because of your infectious enthusiasm and the respect that you naturally
command, people tend to follow your recommendations. Possessing an uncanny
ability to reach out to those in pain, you can easily remedy a difficult
situation. Compassion and the ability to heal make you a natural for the
fields of medicine, social work or teaching.
Rounding Out the Picture
Two other families of so-called “minor” aspects add yet more information
about the way the planets relate to each other in your chart. Semisquares and
sesquares (also known as sesquiquadrates) share the dynamic, crisis-prone
nature of the square but need to be quite exact in order to be felt.
Semisextiles and quincunxes connect signs that are totally unrelated to each other. They can have an odd, unsettling quality, indicating problems or issues that it’s hard to get a grip on. They are like interesting puzzles that call for a creative solution.
Sun semisquare Venus
You are physically very attractive. Usually this a blessing, but at times it
causes you problems. There are times when you would rather not be noticed, but
this seems to be impossible and you appear to be your own worst enemy. This
may cause you to feel uncomfortable and angry and insecure, and you will find
it difficult to articulate your feelings because you are shy and soft-spoken
by nature. Be aware that this will be a continuing problem. Learn to use it to
your best advantage whenever possible and try to develop strategies so that
you can maintain your privacy and peace of mind.
Sun semisextile Neptune
You are very sensitive to the needs of others. This can sometimes be a problem
for you because you are also aware that your own needs are often quite
different from those of the people around you. You get quite frustrated when
you find yourself sacrificing your own needs for the sake of others. But you
are not very demonstrative by nature and rarely speak up for yourself, thus
compounding your difficulties. Your self-image and self-confidence need to be
bolstered at every opportunity. It will be very important that you live with
positive, upbeat people or you will be overwhelmed by the negativity of those
around you.
Mercury semisextile Venus
At your best, you can sense the way that everything relates to everything else
as a part of an organic whole. This usually enhances your ability to think
things through. At times, though, when you are forced to think logically,
rigorously and matter-of-factly, you become confused and dumbfounded. This is
because you need to see whole patterns in order to make sense of things. You
flounder when you cannot see the forest for the trees. Try stepping back a bit
in order to get a proper perspective. This placement also indicates a refined
aesthetic sensibility that allows you to appreciate art or even be an artist
yourself.
Mercury semisquare North Node
One of the major challenges you face is the way that you deal with other
people, especially those whom you meet on a daily basis. You need the stimulus
of sharing ideas with others, but may have to learn that sharing is a two-way
street. Instead of letting others bowl you over and manipulate you, make sure
that they pay attention to you, your opinions and your rights. Or, instead of
yourself bowling others over, try not to become boorish by imposing your will
on others. Concentrate on being more adaptable and on being a better listener.
The degree to which others accept you as a likable companion will go a long
way to increase your happiness and self-esteem.
Venus semisextile Ascendant
You need relationships to feel alive, but often you shun them because you do
not feel that you are worthy enough to share yourself with others. You tend to
think so little of yourself that you will only enter relationships where you
serve others unstintingly, without asking anything in return. This bothers you
because you know that you have real needs and you keep hoping that those you
serve will notice them spontaneously. When they don’t, you withdraw even
more and the pattern becomes reinforced. You must learn to stick up for
yourself. You will be surprised at how relieved your beloved will be when you
put aside your fawning ways for a while.
Mars semisextile Midheaven
There is a tension in your life between the need to be aggressively
self-assertive (the need to have your own way about things) and the need to
have clear-cut life goals. Of course, working out your career objectives
usually involves a certain amount of cooperation with others and this is where
the problem comes in. You tend to think that only you have all the answers and
do not blend in well with group efforts — it is you, personally, who want to
run the show. This can lead to frequent run-ins with bosses and authority
figures, which may slow down your career progress significantly. It will be
difficult to do, but you must learn to know when to be forthright and
aggressive and when to compromise if you are to be a success.
Neptune semisquare Ascendant
You are very sensitive to the needs of others, especially the needs of those
who are not as fortunate as yourself. Your ability to empathize with the
problems of others leads you to want to put their interests ahead of your own.
Although you are at your best when sacrificing yourself for others, try to be
sure that they are indeed worthy of your attentions.
Houses: Bringing the
Planets Down to Earth
The positions of the planets in the zodiac, and the aspects between the
planets, are nearly the same for everyone born on a given day. But the houses
reflect how the planets were arranged around you and you alone, at a given
hour and minute, and at a given place on Earth. Houses therefore personalize
the planets, showing how they relate to your own particular life.
The meanings of the twelve houses echo those of the twelve zodiacal signs, but are more specific and concrete. For example, the second sign, Taurus, is much concerned with the material world, whereas the second house deals with your actual possessions: how you feel about them, and how you acquire them.
The house delineations that follow show how the affairs of each house are flavored by the sign that lies on its cusp. Since houses are sometimes larger than signs, a house may also have one or more signs completely enclosed or “intercepted” within it, in which case you will find additional material about the intercepted signs in a house. Most important, you will learn below in what areas of life the planets — the main actors in your drama — are disposed to be most active, and how the way each planet operates is influenced by both its house and its sign.
House 1: Your Interface
with the World
The first house focuses on the basic equipment that you have been given for
interacting with the world: your body and your physical constitution, your
face, your appearance, your personality, mannerisms and the way you present
yourself. It may not be how you see yourself, but it is how others tend to
perceive you, and you should be aware that it has an important effect on how
you are accepted in social situations. Planets in the first house tend to be
strong and “out-front,” especially when they are close to (that is,
conjunct) your Ascendant.
Sagittarius on the First
Impatient with social niceties and considering them hindrances to real
communication, you prefer to live your life in a straightforward and simple
manner You are known for being open, frank, outgoing and honest. At times,
though, you can be blunt and quite indiscreet. Usually you do not mean any
harm, so it is best if others learn not to take everything you say personally.
You demand the freedom to do as you choose, and if you are not self-directed
you feel trapped and anxious. You have lots and lots of energy, and tend to
become restless if you feel confined. You may love the outdoors, and physical
exercise can help you burn off some of your excess energy. A gregarious person
who likes to socialize, you have an innate enthusiasm that livens up any
gathering.
Mercury in the First
You are known for being alert, lively and curious. Your inquisitiveness
attracts you to reading and travel. At times, you get very impatient. Your
excess nervous energy makes you restless, and you become easily bored. You
love to talk to others, sharing new ideas and telling everyone what is on your
mind — whether they want to hear it or not. Very playful, you love pranks
and practical jokes.
Mercury in Sagittarius
You are known for being blunt, but also for being honest and truthful. Your
mind is very curious and inquisitive, always seeking information on a wide
variety of topics. The broader the subject (philosophy, science, religion,
metaphysics), the more it appeals to you. The small but important details can
elude you, but you have a wonderful way of making connections between
disparate subjects and coming up with all- embracing theories.
House 2: What You Own
and Value
The second house goes a step outward from your own person and has to do with
resources that you possess, including money. It shows your attitude toward
what you own or would like to own: what you crave and covet, what you most
value, how you go about getting it, how you take care of it, and whether or
not you hang on to it. By extension, it can also indicate your sense of
values: not just material things but also the attitudes and ideas that you
hold dear.
Capricorn on the Second
You are a high achiever and you regard material prosperity as a mark of your
success in the world. You have an unreasonable fear that, if you do not
surround yourself with wealth or possessions, others will regard you as a
failure. As such, you have the self-discipline to put on the blinders and work
without distraction for goals that are at present only dimly realizable. You
are very cautious and responsible, however, and are not willing to risk
everything on any sort of gamble or speculation in order to get ahead. You
prefer to proceed at a steady, reasonable pace. Be careful not to get so
caught up in trying to get ahead that you forget to relax and enjoy the rich
variety that life has to offer.
Moon in the Second
Your strong need for emotional security is often expressed by a continuing
desire to acquire possessions. You especially delight in old, familiar items
— those with fond memories attached to them, like antiques or keepsakes.
When you are feeling insecure or threatened, you tend to become very selfish
and possessive, but when you are happy and at peace, you are generous and
giving. You are known for your sentimentality — you cling tenaciously to
your memories of the good times you have had and love to relive them in your
mind.
Moon in Aquarius
Very freedom-oriented, you must always be able to do what you wish, no matter
what. You become stubborn and recalcitrant when others try to force you into a
mold. You are a true democrat — you are not a follower, but you enjoy being
with those who are like-minded. You appreciate emotional self-control — you
practice it yourself and you look for it in others. You solve problems,
including emotional ones, with your brains and intellect, not your feelings.
Try to be tolerant of those who have powerful and obvious emotional responses
— not everyone is as objective, cool, dispassionate and detached as you are.
Venus in the Second
You feel that you need to live as comfortably and luxuriously as possible and
you devote a great deal of your time and energy trying to make sure that it
happens. You love to make money and are probably good at it, but it tends to
run right through your fingers as you spend it on the beautiful and expensive
things with which you like to surround yourself. Generally, you do have a good
sense of value, but you should be careful to avoid impulse buying and any form
of self-indulgence. Without some serious self-discipline, your budget (and
waistline) will tend to spread and spread ...
Venus in Capricorn
You tend to keep your feelings under control, releasing your emotions only in
serious or important situations. Also, you distrust others who behave in an
excessive or immoderate way. You prefer to relate to people older than you or
whose position is such that respect and duty are more important for both of
you than passion or emotional response. To avoid being lonely, be careful to
form relationships that are based on something more than practicality or
utility.
Chiron in the Second
Sliding between abject poverty and great wealth makes you feel that life is
one great roller-coaster ride. Consumed with the need for financial security,
you may resort to unscrupulous methods to achieve it, even though you are
extremely capable of amassing wealth through your own ingenuity. At times, you
may feel undeserving of success, or even guilty about going shopping. Be
charitable and generous, but don’t spend your earnings frivolously or gamble
them away.
Chiron in Aquarius
Organizing your time may be daunting, but it is the only answer to your
overloaded and chaotic schedule. Socially conscious and politically active,
you may have had professional setbacks due to lack of discipline and an
inability to adhere to details. Learning to focus will enable you to be more
effective in the workplace. Revolutionary and innovative, you must become more
diplomatic before you can change the world. You have difficulty trusting even
those closest to you. Learn to have faith in others, and an inability to
cooperate will be a thing of the past.
House 3: Your Immediate
Surroundings
Going a step further out from your own body and possessions, the third house
has to do with your immediate surroundings and how you interact with them. The
first “social” house, it describes brothers and sisters, neighbors and
anyone who just happens to be near you on a daily basis. It also describes
daily communication and transportation: letters, phone calls and emails, and
routine journeys such as commuting to shopping, school or work. The first “mental”
house, it governs early education and basic skills training, paving the way
for higher education in the ninth house which is directly opposite it in the
chart.
Aquarius on the Third
You have an objective, detached mind that allows you to have unusually good
judgment about most things. You are attracted to studies that demand an
unruffled temperament in order to handle any kind of intricate and complex
subject matter. This would include science, communications, electronics,
computers and maybe even astrology. Your opinions do tend to become set and
rigid once you have made up your mind, however, and you must be careful of a
tendency toward intolerance and dogmatic thinking. You do love a challenge
though, and you can come up with original and inventive solutions to
complicated problems. You tend to live so much of your life in your mind that
you often neglect the daily amenities of life and can get a reputation for
being odd or eccentric.
Pisces on the Third
You have the ability to know the true motivations of others’ actions, even
when they do not properly articulate them. Your way of knowing is not
intellectual, however you seem to know things by a “gut” reaction that you
find difficult to explain. Because this manner of obtaining knowledge is so
mysterious to most people, usually you do not share it with others, lest they
think you “different.” You have to learn to trust your intuitions,
especially when they are so frequently correct. Also, you have a vivid
imagination and must learn to share its wonders with others. Because of your
unique sensitivity, you often prefer a quiet, secluded lifestyle — out of
the limelight. Your empathy with the plight of others can attract you to the
helping professions. Here you feel that you are needed and can be effective.
No planets in the Third
Your third house is not activated by planetary activity. For the most part,
how you order your daily life activities is not an issue for you. It is
something that you rarely think about or have to plan consciously.
House 4: Where You Come
From
Being at the very bottom of the wheel, the fourth house is both where you
originate and where you come to rest. As such, it describes your parents and
ancestral background, and later the home or protected space into which you
retreat each day for nourishment and sleep. A deeply personal house, the
fourth is concerned with security and peace of mind, the safety of loved ones,
and how you care for others and yourself. The place of your roots and the
earth beneath your feet, the fourth house rules the house or apartment where
you live and also real estate in general. In your trajectory through life, the
fourth house shows your origins and where you are coming from, just as the
tenth house and Midheaven describe your career and where you aim to go.
Aries on the Fourth
You have ambivalent feelings about your home and family. On the one hand, you
are quite proud of them and will exert yourself to the utmost to protect and
defend them if necessary but, on the other hand, you are quite free-spirited
and independent and hate to be tied down. As such, you resent the emotional
bonds that exist in family ties — they force you to alter your course at
times. You will not tie others to you emotionally either, but will prefer to
prepare your loved ones to go out into the world on their own as soon as
possible. This will give all concerned the freedom that they deserve with a
minimum of stress and tension.
No planets in the Fourth
You have no planets in the fourth house. This means that home and family are
not likely to be major issues for you, or demand much time and energy on your
part. For further information on how you handle the issues of security and
peace of mind, look to the house and aspects of your Moon.
House 5: Playtime
After being nurtured and restored in the fourth house, you are refreshed and
full of energy for play and creative pursuits. Replenished by dreams, you have
creative ideas. Nurtured by your parents, you are ready to have your own
children. Fresh from the security of home, you are ready to trust the universe
and take risks. For all these reasons, the fifth house traditionally rules the
child in you and the children around you, your own personal creativity and
self-expression, plays and amusements of all sorts, gambling and speculation,
and courtship, love affairs and romance. This is an outgoing house, but it is
still beneath the horizon, in the territory of your heart’s desires.
Taurus on the Fifth
You are too cautious and conservative by nature to be attracted to speculative
ventures — you prefer to stockpile your resources. You would rather save
them up so that you can afford to purchase some long- planned-for, very high
quality item that will let you relax in the lap of luxury. Very sensual, you
like nothing better than to loll around in the overstuffed but comfortable
surroundings of your home. Quite creative, you enjoy expressing yourself by
using your hands — sculpture, painting, furniture manufacture and such
appeal to you. Very fertile as a rule, you may be blessed with many children
and you will dote on them.
No planets in the Fifth
The fifth house of your horoscope contains no planets. This does not mean that
you are any less self- expressive or creative or fun-loving than the next
person. It just means that your overall character is balanced to the extent
that these issues are not usually paramount for you.
House 6: Taking Care of
Business
After the candle-lit dinner comes the credit-card bill. Courtship is followed
by the nitty-gritty of married life: babies, diapers and saving up for
college. After your creative impulse comes the need to learn the technique of
actually making something. And if you overexpend your energy, you get health
problems. The sixth house rules taking care of business on an everyday level.
This includes your job, paying bills and keeping the house clean. It also
includes maintaining your body with medical checkups and a daily regimen of
nutrition and exercise. In the old books it ruled servants, and it can by
extension rule the way you offer service to others. It also ruled useful
animals, particularly small ones like cats, dogs, chickens and pigs. Today
this usually means small pets, which exist in the personal, intimate part of
your life that is signified by houses that lie below the horizon.
Taurus on the Sixth
Being rather conservative and cautious by nature, you appreciate regular
employment and the security that it brings. You will be attracted to work
situations that will assure you of a livelihood over the long haul and will
not mind working for someone else, especially an old, established, reliable
firm — and you will reward them by your loyalty and trust. You work long and
hard and are known for your physical strength and endurance. Although you have
an innate tendency toward self-indulgence, you are aware that if your health
suffers, you may lose your job. That will be enough to worry you into good
exercise and nutrition habits.
No planets in the Sixth
Your sixth house is not activated by planetary activity. Health and
work-related issues are not usually paramount concerns for you. Of course,
outside influences can temporarily upset this balance, causing you to devote
more time and energy to these parts of your life, at least on a temporary
basis.
House 7: Relating
One-to-One
If you courted in the fifth house and woke up in the sixth yoked to another in
a daily routine, the seventh house gives you a chance to hammer out a
relationship of true equals. The goal is wedded bliss and a true sense of
relatedness, but along the way there may be fights as you each define your
individuality and establish your own territory. Not only is the seventh the
traditional house of marriage, it is also the house of open enemies, your
sparring partners in life. In general, since the first house is you yourself,
the seventh house, directly opposite, is the other person in a variety of
situations. Besides signifying a marriage or sparring partner, the seventh
house rules business partners, or those on the other side of a desk, such as
consultants, lawyers, therapists or astrologers.
Gemini on the Seventh
Your relationship needs are many and varied and only rarely can be fulfilled
by any one person. This may lead you either to having more than one
relationship ongoing at any given time or to moving in and out of
relationships rather quickly. The worst thing that can happen to you is to
have your partner try to settle down and build a permanent daily living
algorithm. This causes you to feel very restless, and you soon find an excuse
to move on. The most successful and long-lasting business or personal
relationships for you are ones that have as their common root a shared
intellectual interest. This allows you to continually bounce ideas off each
other and to receive the mutual mental stimuli that you both need.
No planets in the Seventh
You have no planets in the seventh house of your horoscope. This does not mean
that you will never have any relationships or that you will never get married.
What it does indicate is that you will not find your life overly dominated by
working out problems associated with relationships. You will experience more
or less activity in these areas occasionally, along with everyone else.
House 8: Giving It All
Away
Having achieved a relationship of equals in the seventh house, you are ready
to give up your separateness in the eighth, merging in sexual union and
becoming one on a deep emotional level. If the second house was about grasping
and possessing, the eighth is about sharing and letting go. While the second
rules your own money, the eighth rules how you deal with other people’s
money and how you pool resources. On a mundane level the eighth rules taxes,
but on a fundamental level it can rule giving up anything you value, including
your ego and even your body. In relaxing your grasp on what you find most
dear, you may find that you are really not as dependent on it as you thought.
In relinquishing, you achieve a new level of freedom, and feel lighter,
renewed and more alive. Related to all this, the eighth signifies mysteries
such as death and resurrection, magic and the occult, and the deep parts of
the psyche that are beyond our conscious grasp.
Cancer on the Eighth
You tend to be cautious and careful when it comes to investing your resources.
You have such strong feelings and are so emotionally attached to what you own
that you do not want to let go of it unless you can also be assured that you
will be closely and intimately involved with the process of investing. As
such, you never do really ever let go all the way. You have a similar attitude
toward sexual matters — you only really can relax with someone who is as
totally committed as you are to the relationship. When you feel the least
hesitancy on your partner’s part, you immediately pull back and withdraw
into your own non-threatening, private world. But when you do feel secure, you
are warm, open, giving and caring.
Uranus in the Eighth
The changes that come into your life usually occur suddenly and unexpectedly,
and you prefer it that way. Slow, evolutionary growth patterns make you
impatient and restless. You will go out of your way to put yourself into new
and unique situations so that your life will be constantly renewed and
refreshed you are unwilling merely to let nature take its course. Be very
careful — your tendency toward rash behavior makes you very accident-prone.
Uranus in Leo
You are part of an age group that demands complete and total freedom of
self-expression. You and your peers want to make your mark in the world
according to your own lights and will brook no interference from traditional
authority figures, especially if they attempt to mold or shape you in any way.
You are honest and forthright, but a bit offbeat and eccentric. The lack of
self-discipline may hinder you from reaching your goals as quickly as you
would like.
House 9: Expanding Your
Awareness
Approaching the highest point in the sky, the ninth house wafts you up and out
of your rut, giving you a broad and lofty view of the terrain beneath. Whereas
the third ruled basic schooling and short trips, the ninth rules higher
education and long-distance travel. It removes you from your everyday routine
so you can see the overall pattern, the overlooked connections between things.
It rules all-embracing concepts (such as your philosophy of life) and
institutions (like religion and law) that stand over society and keep it bound
together. It can also signify your teachers and mentors, your library, and all
else that broadens your outlook.
Leo on the Ninth
You are an enthusiastic student of subjects that allow you to broaden your
mind and expand your consciousness. Once you have studied for a while, you
tend to form your opinions and cast your lot with a particular philosophy or
religion or metaphysical system. You will then be the ideal proselytizer for
your cause — you take great pride in your intimate knowledge of the subject
and will gladly defend it against all comers. The thought that “convictions
make convicts” does not deter you, and you gladly seek converts (and
disciples). The fact that you are so confident and assured in your beliefs may
attract like-minded individuals to you. You may also find yourself involved
quite a bit in teaching or in administering to those who share your goals.
Virgo on the Ninth
You tend to have a very practical and utilitarian philosophy of life. You are
very critical of any system of thought that does not immediately enhance your
lifestyle by providing you with practical regimens for self- improvement.
Abstract speculations hold no interest for you. You do seek perfection as an
ideal, but you are more than willing to perform any number of specific rituals
to attain it. Thus, you will devote a great deal of attention to your diet and
daily habit patterns, trying to eliminate any hint of negligence or
purposelessness from your life. You are extremely self-critical and critical
of others as well. Be careful not to become too intolerant or dogmatic in your
thinking patterns or you will be denying yourself the richness and variety of
human self-expression.
Pluto in the Ninth
You enjoy learning about new things, and, when you do so, you learn totally,
obsessively, deeply and thoroughly — to the exclusion of everything else in
your life. You love a challenge and are quite good at solving mysteries. You
are very solid in your own opinions and you have a deep understanding of human
nature and motivations. As such, you are very good at molding the opinions of
others. However, be careful that, in your zeal to persuade others of the
propriety of your ideas, you do not give in to the temptation to use
underhanded tactics to control or manipulate others.
Pluto in Virgo
Your entire generation was born at a time that saw profound changes in society’s
attitude toward work, duty and responsibility. There were also fundamental
changes in attitudes toward personal health and nutrition.
House 10: Your Public
Self
If the fourth house showed your roots and where you came from, the tenth shows
what you are ultimately aiming at in life. Whereas the sixth shows your daily
job and how you make a living, the tenth signifies your career, your personal
contribution, your reputation and what you become known for. Some astrologers
also believe that the fourth house signifies one parent, and the tenth
signifies the other. The tenth-house parent is most likely the one who
prepares you for the world. The closer a planet is to the Midheaven, the more
likely that planet is to be the major significator of your life’s direction.
Libra on the Tenth
You will tend to advance your position in life only if you are heavily
involved with others — either by having a strongly supportive mate or
partner, or by currying the favor and sponsorship of significant others along
the way. Your sociable behavior and ability to adapt yourself harmoniously to
the needs of your peers assists your rise to the top. Beware of a strong
temptation to exploit others for your own benefit, and avoid the tendency to
be pleasant but insincere. And also try to avoid being frivolous and vain.
Jupiter in the Tenth
Your self-confidence and generally optimistic attitude allows you to interface
quite well with both partners and competitors. You are trusted because of your
reasonableness and good judgment. This offers you the opportunity to attain
considerable success in your chosen line of work. You are truly altruistic by
nature, and your career will prosper if, in it, you can constantly deal with
significant human problems, like justice or social reform. But ,at times, you
get puffed up with your own importance — watch out that you do not become
overly self-righteous or arrogant or you will lose the good will of others
that you value so much.
Jupiter in Libra
You are generally good at balancing opinions and judging issues, but you tend
to be indecisive when it comes to making up your own mind. You are objective
and quite concerned with fair play and justice. But, when it comes to
yourself, you are so aware that whatever you do might upset the apple cart
that you often choose to compromise rather than do anything that might make
you lonely or vulnerable. Relationships are very important to you — you
learn about yourself and grow through observing yourself interacting with
others. Your aesthetic tastes are refined, but expansive and expensive.
Neptune in the Tenth
Choosing a life path can be a difficult and confusing process for you,
especially if the parent that you idealized as a child turned out not to meet
with your expectations. You will feel full of self-doubts and will be afraid
to make similar mistakes or will worry that you have similar fatal flaws and
weaknesses. You must realize that your life goals are your own and that you,
as a unique individual, represent a fresh start. If you can do this, then you
will be able to get yourself motivated. You have high hopes for yourself and
for others and will be willing to make considerable personal sacrifices to
reach your goals. You have some rather excellent qualifications for being
involved in the helping professions (nursing, religion, medicine).
Neptune in Scorpio
You, and your entire generation, are extremely interested in anything deep and
mysterious. You will explore and idealize the benefits that can accrue from
the study of the occult, healing and psychology. You are willing to experiment
with substances like drugs in order to push your understanding of your inner
being to the extreme.
House 11: Your Circle of
Acquaintances
The eleventh is the last house of relationships: not brothers, sisters and
neighbors who just happen to be around you, not one-to-one partners, but the
circle of friends and associates whom you actively choose. It shows the way
you make and keep friendships, the organizations you join, the networking you
do, and the general way you interact with groups. After you have established
yourself as an individual and learned to form personal relationships with
others, you are ready to think about the common good. This is why the eleventh
often signifies groups dedicated to social or other sorts of collective
improvement.
Scorpio on the Eleventh
You tend to become intensely and obsessively involved with your friends. You
are not interested in any casual or superficial associations. Indeed, you are
not interested at all unless those with whom you associate are willing to give
up everything else for the sake of their relationship with you. The intensity
that is demanded in a relationship like this will naturally produce much
stress and strain — for you, commitment is total and all-absorbing. Beware
of becoming overly manipulative of your friends — no one likes to have his
or her actions motivated by guilt. You also tend to become emotionally
attached to whatever groups to which you belong. You treat them and their
goals as if they were a part of your extended family. Any threat to them is
regarded as a threat to yourself and dealt with accordingly.
Mars in the Eleventh
You like your friends and associates to be as active, vigorous and independent
as you are. Very competitive, you love to engage your friends in contests or
athletic events. It is important that your friends share your goals and
beliefs or there will be constant conflicts and quarrels because you tend to
defend your beliefs so aggressively. You have the ability to happily strive
with others toward mutually shared team or group goals.
Mars in Scorpio
Your likes and dislikes are intense, not casual or superficial. You are known
for your persistence and willful obsession. Once you have decided on a course
of action, you are unstoppable. Your emotional actions tend to be extreme,
although you try to keep them muted. You are not quick to anger; instead, you
do slow burns. When you release your anger, it often comes out as sarcasm or
irony. Beware of your tendency to hold grudges and to be vengeful. When you do
fight or otherwise release your internal tensions, you do so body and soul:
you become totally passionate and your outbursts are awesome to behold.
North Node in the Eleventh
You’re at your best when meeting others, especially those who are outside
your immediate family environment. You prefer the social whirl — meeting new
and interesting people stimulates your imagination and makes you feel alive.
However, you’re usually not a casual joiner — you like to dig right in and
be of assistance in helping the group meet its goals. You have many friends
and acquaintances, and it takes some doing just trying to fit them all in to
your busy social schedule.
North Node in Scorpio
You have a special aptitude for working by yourself, or with a like-minded
group of dedicated individuals. Once you’ve committed yourself to a person
or group or project, your loyalty and devotion are total until the group’s
goals have been realized. Not at all gregarious by nature, you’re
uncomfortable around strangers, greatly preferring to be in known and familiar
situations. Others may regard you as shy or eccentric, but those who know you
well are aware of the intense loyalty that you have to your friends.
House 12: The Hidden You
The twelfth house is where planets go just after they have risen. Here planets
are still wet behind the ears, blinking in the sunlight and unsteady on their
feet. Feeling completely vulnerable, planets in the twelfth tend to hide.
Their energies can become repressed and secretive, and sometimes they lurk as
complexes in the subconscious. This is why the twelfth is associated with
self-sabotage, with hidden enemies, and with prison and whatever else makes
you feel confined. The traditional association with hospitals and prisons
suggest that constructive ways of dealing with twelfth-house problems include
helping others who are similarly repressed or confined. Also, some with a
strong twelfth-house emphasis become successful as undercover workers or as
the power behind the throne.
Scorpio on the Twelfth
You tend to become so confused by that part of your nature that becomes
emotionally involved with issues or other people that all reason disappears.
You pride yourself on your intellectual objectivity and tend to feel that you
are betraying the better part of your individuality when you become obsessed
unreasonably by an idea or person. This leads you to try to suppress these
feelings, and this makes you even more uncomfortable because they are so
powerful. In order to be at peace with yourself, you must learn that you are a
complex personality and that it is quite natural for you to have these urges.
Try to deal with them rationally — allow yourself some sort of safety valve
so that they can be released constructively and harmlessly. If you don’t,
they will assert themselves at the most inappropriate of times.
Sun in the Twelfth
You tend to be shy and retiring, especially when your sense of self-esteem has
been threatened. You often feel that you do not deserve to make a mark in the
world, perhaps because of some painful early childhood experience. This is an
unnecessary fear, however. You have very good qualities and should be proud of
yourself. You are a caring, sensitive and compassionate person, very helpful
to others. Your awareness of your own pain and self-doubt makes you very
effective in extending your sympathy to others whose problems are more likely
than not much more tangible than those that you think are holding you back.
Sun in Sagittarius
You are known for being idealistic, generous, sociable, cheerful and very
positive. Full of spirit, you have a huge reservoir of energy within you that
demands to be released. Exercise, either physical or mental, is thus a
necessity. Gregarious, you enjoy being with other people, although you tend to
avoid emotionally restrictive or overly intimate relationships. You are
constantly curious about the broader issues of life, but can be careless and
sloppy about details, and may leap to conclusions before all the facts are in.
You are probably an avid reader and gatherer of knowledge, and once a subject
catches your interest, your enthusiasm for learning all about it is boundless.
Saturn in the Twelfth
You have a feeling that your personal world is not and never will be stable.
Also, you feel that you can never impose the sense of order and discipline on
your surroundings that you think you need in order to be at peace with
yourself. This can lead to deep-seated feelings of inferiority and
accompanying bouts of depression. These unreasonable fears probably stem from
some unfortunate occurrence early on in your life. It is important for you to
realize that the reason for these fears is long since past and that they are
no longer relevant to your present life. Be patient and things will more than
likely look better for you the older (and wiser) you get.
Saturn in Sagittarius
Basically quite conservative, you respect traditional authority figures and
are very thankful and supportive of the laws and institutions which govern
your life. You learn and accept new ideas only after having very thoroughly
examined them. Ideals and abstract concepts are important to you only if they
can be used in some practical fashion. You are so practical and so orderly
that you have natural skills in planning, administrating and organizing.
A Mirror of Your
Uniqueness
This report is based on the position of the Sun, Moon and planets at the
moment of your birth, as seen from the point on Earth where you were born.
Such an arrangement of planets and stars will never be repeated in exactly the
same form. Like the genes that determine your body and temperament, your
astrological chart is made up of the same basic parts that other humans have,
but the arrangement of these parts is uniquely your own.
You could think of your birth moment as a seed that contains the potential for how you will unfold. The arrangement of the planets at your birth does not, however, cause your body structure and temperament in the way that the patterning of your DNA causes it. Instead, the planetary positions at your birth employ the language of symbols to mirror who you are. Like a mirror, your chart enables you to see yourself from outside yourself, and it therefore extends your point of view.
To use a different analogy, your chart shows the deck you’ve been dealt, the raw materials you are given from which to fashion a life. Nobody’s perfect: we are all given our special problems to solve and our special strengths and beauties. In knowing what you have to work with, you will be better able to make use of your gifts, fill in (or at least be comfortable about) what you lack, and grow in the life directions that are right for you and you alone.
Instead of assuming that there is one norm for everyone, astrology attempts to show the special pattern that is right for you. In doing so, it can give you clues as to how you can more fully and consciously fill the unique role that you have been given in this lifetime, and enrich the world with the gifts that only you can bestow.
This is the Professional Natal Report, from Astrolabe.
