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 few or no planets in Fire signs.
With a marked lack of emphasis in the Fire signs (that is, Aries, Leo or
Sagittarius), you are probably not one who burns the heavens bright like a
meteor. Instead, you tend to be steady and consistent, and may become appalled
at the abrasiveness of dominant personalities. Though you may at times seem
low in spirits and lacking in self-confidence and personal initiative, you
aren’t really. This is just your style: you don’t go for the drama. Let
other more driven folks take the lead, get excited over trivialities, and blow
their own horns.
You are more concerned with others’ feelings, and with security and stability in life. Things to be careful about include eating foods that are difficult to digest, especially hot and spicy dishes, because you may not assimilate them well. Also, you tend to tire easily when you exercise, so be moderate when it comes to physical activity. If you push yourself to pursue really challenging tasks, however, you will learn how to compensate for any areas in which you feel you are lacking. This will help you feel more comfortable in a world filled with blustering, dominant individuals.
There are many planets in Air signs.
With all those planets in signs such as Gemini, Libra or Aquarius, you
probably love to live in your intellect, and excel at organizing, planning,
and developing new techniques. Your strengths are logic, reason and
impartiality. Because of your ability to remain detached and objective, you
are a fair-minded judge of most situations. You can see and understand
interrelationships that those who are emotionally or practically oriented find
difficult to fathom. You could be a fighter for ideas and ideals, like a
statesman who lives simply, has few material needs, and is held in high regard
for his beliefs.
You like to connect people and ideas. Not being much interested in practical experience, you live in a world of concepts and use social interaction as your medium. Although you are a very social person, you prefer to remain detached. Emotional displays turn you off and you would rather negotiate. You may be in danger of being cold and emotionally insensitive to others. Understand that many do not operate in your rarefied atmosphere, and remember to be charitable if they lead mundane, unimaginative existences.
Unless you also have an emphasis in Earth signs or on such planets as Saturn and the Moon, your life may have a rootless quality. Although you may not notice it, others may be aware of a lack of stability in your material, external sense of being. To achieve balance, you may need consciously to stick to projects, put down roots, and cultivate your emotional life.
There are many planets in Fixed signs.
Your strong emphasis in signs like Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius gives you
the persistence to bring any project to its conclusion. You are the one who
can be counted on to do whatever must be done. A preserver of old traditions
and customs, you know that forward progress can occur only if there is a firm
foundation to begin with. You are glad to build that foundation. Be aware,
however, that others may sometimes view your noble persistence as
stubbornness, cussedness or pigheadedness.
There is an unusual number of planets in Aquarius.
Your rare degree of detachment and objectivity gives you an ability to make
informed judgments about people, events and ideas. Usually you are correct in
your observations. Because you tend to intellectualize everything, however,
you may have more trouble dealing with emotional situations. Also, once you
have formed an opinion, you tend to be intolerant of the views of others. Very
social, you prefer to function within groups that support your own views. Once
you’ve joined these groups, you may prefer to run them.
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 Neptune
Your extreme sensitivity to emotions and energies that are not noticed by
those around you can cause you to refrain from acting in situations that
demand action. This is because you have such an overload of information that
you do not trust yourself to make rational decisions. The resulting confusion
of purpose can make you withdraw from everyday interactions and become shy and
full of self-doubt. When you’re at your best, though, you are a true seer
who can sort through all of the information around you, see straight to the
truth of the matter, and communicate it to others. Learn to trust your
intuitions.
Moon conjunct North Node
Your extended family is very, very important to you. You tend to treat almost
everyone with whom you form any kind of non-casual relationship as if they
were members of your intimate family. You delight in taking care of others,
ministering to their needs, and generally making them feel comfortable. This
applies to religious, political and charitable organizations and to anyone in
your neighborhood. You’re comfortable working behind the scenes as long as
you know that you’re making an impact. But be careful not to neglect the
needs of those closest to you. They may tend to feel slighted if you spend a
great deal of time away from home.
Moon square Chiron
Your mother may have been high-strung and domineering, or she may have had
insecurities, which you absorbed. In turn, you may demand constant reassurance
and attention from everyone you meet. Possessive and manipulative, you may
drive away those whom you care about most. Once you grow confident and
trusting, you can provide those close to you with the love and stability that
they need. At times, you are withdrawn and moody. You relish being a
confidante who can provide answers and direction.
Mercury square Saturn
At your best, you are extremely cautious and conservative. But often you
analyze situations to such an extent that you develop a feeling that all of
life is difficult, hard to deal with, and oppressive. This leads to your
feeling depressed and alienated. Often you are paralyzed by inaction because
you are afraid that what you decide to do may be the wrong thing. Try to
lighten up on yourself. Don’t be afraid to act. Even though you are faced
with a number of choices, your decision-making processes are so thorough that
probably all your possibilities are correct and appropriate.
Mercury opposite Uranus
You hardly need to worry about getting enough intellectual stimulation. As a
matter of fact, that is one of your more persistent problems in life. You are
so sensitive to new input around you that you tend to get scattered and
confused by it all. Your mind seems to wander off continually on tangents, not
allowing you to follow things through to their logical conclusions. This can
cause you to deal with matters in a shallow- minded, superficial way.
Difficult though it may be, you must try to concentrate on the major issue is
at hand, at least long enough to finish it. Then you can follow your
distractions.
Mercury conjunct Chiron
To overcome the pain you experienced as a shy and insecure child, you may have
developed a wonderful speaking voice and the confidence to address groups. You
are persuasive, amiable and eloquent. A fine motivational speaker, you have
the know-how to encourage others to develop confidence in their abilities and
to follow their dreams. As a result, you can be an effective educator, lawyer,
speechwriter or agent. You are also well suited for public relations, sales
and advertising.
Venus conjunct Ascendant
You have such a charming, warm, engaging and sincere personality that others
immediately like you. Your popularity stems from your own need to socialize
— you like others as much as they like you. A strong sense of fairness and
appropriateness and decorum makes you the ideal peacemaker and diplomat. You
will go out of your way to make everything around you harmonious and tranquil.
Mars opposite Pluto
You tend to push the universe so hard in order to satisfy your desires that it
continually resists your efforts to get ahead. When you choose violent and
unscrupulous tactics, this almost always assures that powerful forces will be
arrayed against you. When you overcome a tendency toward arrogance and
egotism, though, you can be charismatic and effective. You must learn to be as
concerned about the needs of others as you are about your own personal needs.
You will produce meaningful results when your energies are harnessed for the
good of all.
Mars square Midheaven
Your competitiveness and abundant energy usually serve you well, but you tend
to be easily distracted from your goal by quarrels and disagreements with
others. You tend to feel that you have been personally insulted should anyone
challenge you and you feel that you have to defend yourself. Try not to be
such an egotist. Learn to respect the opinions of others, even if they are
contrary to your own — find some constructive way to prove that you are
right.
Saturn square Uranus
The atmosphere around you is usually so filled with tension that it is almost
palpable. Generally, you can handle it as well as might be expected, but very
often things get out of hand. You may become temperamental and irascible when
you have problems with those in authority. You are aware of the need to do the
right thing, but you are often rebellious. Sometimes this is with good reason,
other times not. Learn to enjoy the rare times of peace and quiet and, when it
all gets to be too much, try a change of scenery to refresh your spirits.
Saturn square Chiron
Lacking courage and conviction in your own beliefs, you tend to let others
steamroller you. Or, fearful of competition, you may overcompensate by needing
to be in complete control. You are a loner and have a difficult time reaching
out to others or allowing anyone to make suggestions. You have great
difficulty in trusting that promises will be fulfilled, and you have an
aversion to being told what to do. Stop playing the part of victim, and you
may be able to open your heart.
Pluto square Midheaven
Power and its uses fascinate you. Your deep understanding of human psychology
allows you to take advantage of the weaknesses of others. This is not
completely ethical, but you rarely concern yourself with the consequences of
your actions on a larger scale. But it is exactly this that precipitates most
of your problems in life. Your dubious and manipulative tactics in dealing
with others cause you to be feared rather than admired. You tend to spend all
of your time trying to stay one step ahead of your opponents in a grisly game
of power and confrontation, when you could be devoting your energies to trying
to implement the deep and lasting changes that you consider to be so
important.
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.
Sun sextile Moon
You are known for the balanced and cheerful way you go through life. Probably,
your early upbringing took place in a relatively stress-free environment, with
both parental figures happy and secure in their roles. You now project this
same attitude in the way that you handle yourself. Just the thought that all
should go well is often enough to assure that it does. Your life works, and it
works smoothly.
Sun sextile North Node
You delight in the society of your peers, especially if they are
decision-makers like you. As such, you’re probably a bit of a joiner. Clubs,
civic organizations, charitable groups and politics may occupy much of your
time and energy. You find that you can make a very real contribution to any of
these endeavors because you set realistic goals for yourself and the group.
You’re a good judge of character and can motivate others to do your (and the
group’s) will. Be careful, though, not to spend all of your time on civic
projects. You could neglect your family and loved ones, and they might resent
your activities.
Sun sextile Midheaven
You know who you are and where you want to go. This is a great gift, one that
relieves you of the anxiety that most people feel about their life direction.
Because you are able easily and quickly to make decisions to assist you in
reaching your goals, you will meet with success early on.
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.
Venus trine Saturn
Restrained and cautious in giving and receiving affection, at times you are so
shy that you would rather not interact at all. It is difficult for you to make
a commitment to another because you are so aware of the duties and obligations
that will be necessary. Try to relax more — “fun” is not a dirty word.
Friendships once made will last the test of time because your loyalty will
prove to be constant and true.
Mars trine Neptune
There is a continuing pattern in your life of seeking some individual or cause
to which you can devote yourself. At times you may not be discriminating in
your choice. If you find yourself often involved with lost causes or with
people who take advantage of your better nature, you may want to consider
seeking the advice of a trusted, practical friend or professional before
making a major life decision. This will probably go against your grain,
because it may not be in your nature to trust decisions based on rationality.
Though you may feel that the heart has its own reasons, it cannot hurt to seek
out a more grounded viewpoint before making up your mind. With this aspect you
may also be physically very sensitive, and may be better off refraining from
alcohol and other mind-altering substances.
Jupiter trine Uranus
You are never lacking in ideas that would solve your life’s problems in new,
unique, even bizarre ways. You tend to overestimate your abilities and
resources at times in your desire to make the sweeping changes that you think
are necessary. If you become a bit more practical, you just may be able to
make your innovative plans become reality. Your optimistic, free-spirited
attitude is often rewarded by lucky breaks that seem to come “out of the
blue.”
Saturn trine Ascendant
You prefer the company of those who are either considerably older than
yourself or considerably younger. The respect and distance demanded in these
situations appeals to you since you tend to feel threatened in social
situations that demand intimacy. Your fatherly concern for others allows you
to function well in the role of teacher or advisor, probably because an older,
respected person had an important and positive influence in determining your
character as you grew up.
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.
North Node trine Midheaven
Your advancement in life is due to the quality of the people and groups with
whom you associate. Your community spirit is high — you enjoy working with
others for common goals. Your enthusiasm and sincerity and true caring allow
you to quickly rise to the top and assume leadership roles in the many
volunteer projects you take on. You’re a true humanitarian, caring little
for personal gain. At some point your peers will probably honor you for your
good works.
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 semisextile Mars
You have strong feelings and reactions to most situations. Often, when you try
to do something positive, things get all fouled up because your actions
produce results that were contrary to your original intentions. Though it may
be hard to do, you need to learn to think things through carefully. If you
would like to make the word “oops” less common in your vocabulary, you are
one of those who should always count to ten before proceeding.
Sun semisquare Jupiter
You have a continuing problem of always wanting more and more when moderation
would be a logical way of proceeding. Your tendency to excess — whether in
dietary concerns or budgetary bloat or grandiosity of schemes — is always
causing you difficulties. You keep thinking that you will be able “to get
away with it” just one more time or that just one more will not hurt, and
then you are surprised when you experience setbacks. Even though you are
usually fortunate in your enterprises, a little self-discipline would make
your road much easier to travel.
Moon semisextile Mars
You find it difficult to handle your emotions and this annoys you greatly. You
have a tendency to get angry at the drop of a hat and to be very defensive
whenever you feel threatened. This is all related to your need to feel secure
within yourself. Be careful not to take these personal inner problems out on
the opposite sex. You will have a strong temptation to project your own inner
turmoil on others and that is just not fair to them. If your need for security
and comfort as a child was denied you, perhaps due to an unpleasant experience
with your mother, you should seek competent counsel to work these problems out
if you don’t, the pattern will continue on and on.
Mercury semisextile Ascendant
You enjoy being with people, but you often find it difficult to communicate
your thoughts. This can really annoy you. It seems that, due to your
nervousness, your thoughts are not always easy to articulate, and so
misunderstandings result. Also, you sometimes say things when you do not have
the full attention of your listener. You must learn to concentrate more on
what you are doing, especially when you have something important to discuss.
Venus semisextile Jupiter
There is a tension in your life that may be so subtle a problem that you may
not even notice that it exists. You are by nature a warm and loving person and
you also have big plans for your life direction. But you sometimes are so
passive and self-indulgent that you cannot get yourself motivated to bring
your plans into action. This frustrates you in a gnawing sort of way. You must
find some way to overcome your own personal inertia if you would make your
dreams come true. Take advantage of stressful situations in your life in order
to move you forward in a positive way.
Venus quincunx Uranus
You have ambiguous feelings about relationships and this annoys you terribly.
On the one hand, you want to love and be loved and be considered reliable and
trustworthy. But, on the other hand, you fear getting too close to another and
making a permanent emotional commitment therefore you do things that get you
deservedly branded as undependable and unreliable — things like having
extracurricular affairs, for example. It will be very difficult for you to
reconcile these two quite contrary parts of your nature. First, you must
recognize that they are real and, second, you must make sure that your lovers
understand your needs. Then you can try to accommodate them both. Relationship
commitments must be kept as open and unstructured as possible.
Venus semisquare North Node
Your winning smile is usually enough to guarantee you an entree into whatever
social situation you may desire. But you had better make sure that you can
back it up with sincerity and a truly loving manner if you want relationships
to be anything but very short-lived. Be careful not to get a reputation for
being vivacious but flighty and flirtatious or you’ll end up going from one
brief fling to another and feeling that your life is much emptier than it
really is.
Mars sesquare Uranus
You have a unique and daring approach to life. The more dangerous and risky
the path, the more it interests you. As such, you may be more prone to
accidents than others and it would be advisable for you to observe whatever
safety precautions are common to your field of endeavor. Your life will be
exciting and filled with many changes and setbacks, but you will always
recover and come back for more.
Mars semisextile North Node
It seems that you love nothing more than a good fight or argument. Your
reputation as a quarreler or brawler is well-deserved — you won’t back
down from anybody or anything. But at times you wish you were much less
obstreperous — life would be so much easier without all the constant
bickering. Try to relax a little and let someone else take the lead, but
should that prove to be too dull or stifling, don’t be afraid to assert
yourself anew. You’ll have a great deal of energy to bring to group
endeavors, just as long as you and those with whom you associate can put up
with your overly zealous attitude from time to time.
Saturn semisquare Pluto
There is nothing you like better than a challenge. The more difficult the
task, the harder you will work to see it through to the end. You have the
ability to focus all of your energy on your goal and are rarely distracted. At
times, you feel almost as if you are fighting the whole universe and that it
is getting to be just too much to bear. Don’t worry so much — you usually
have the tenacity to stick it out.
Uranus sesquare Midheaven
You have a unique and original approach to pursuing your career objectives
that causes others to notice you. You are fearlessly unafraid to go it alone,
even in the face of strong opposition. You must be your own person and be
willing to put up with a certain amount of privation in order to allow
yourself that luxury. Your daring and courageous manner of operating will
attract you to very challenging positions. It will be necessary for you to
look into these positions if your interest is to be sustained over the long
haul.
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.
Aquarius on the First
You tend to be an intellectual, with a deep and abiding interest in science,
mathematics, and the great social problems of the day. You like new ideas and
concepts, but you prefer to discover them by yourself, since it is not easy
for others to convert you to anything. You form your own opinions, and once
you do, you want to convince everyone else that they are correct. Sympathetic
toward the downtrodden, you make equality your battle cry and demand that
those in authority be fair to all. You are known for being calm, cool,
detached and objective, but emotions and emotional people may be difficult for
you to understand. Tuning in emotionally and being more tolerant of the
opinions of others are areas you should consider working on.
Venus in the First
Your charming, agreeable nature makes you very popular with others.
Physically, you are quite attractive and will remain young looking all your
life. You are very graceful and possibly quite seductive, and you go out of
your way to make a good impression on others. Be careful that you do NOT
always try to get your way by coaxing and flattery — it could make you
overly dependent on the good will of others. It will be difficult for you, but
you must try to learn to be more self-assertive if you would live an
independent life.
Venus in Aquarius
You are a friendly and outgoing individual, but close relationships are
difficult for you to maintain due to your fear that they will cause you to
lose your freedom. You attract friends and associates who are exciting,
different and sometimes a bit odd. You are popular with others and enjoy
working within a group toward group goals.
Mars in the First
You are so full of energy, so “wired,” that you always seem to be at the
bursting point. Self-assertive, courageous and daring, you have great
leadership potential if you can only stifle your impatience with those who do
not have your boundless energy and enthusiasm. Participatory sports would be a
good way for you to deal with your competitiveness and your need to flex your
muscles. When you act without thinking, you are often reckless. That can lead
to accidents, so be careful.
Mars in Aquarius
Usually your ideas and opinions are inventive and original, but sometimes they
are merely eccentric and offbeat. Altruistic by nature, you will work hard for
the attainment of group goals so long as they meet your high standards. You
tend to resent traditional authority figures because you think that own ideas
are better thought out and more valuable. Very idealistic, you are a rebel with
a cause.
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.
Pisces on the Second
You tend to be quite impractical when it comes to financial matters. You have
a tendency to think that the universe will always support you and that you do
not really have to make any major effort of will in order to get what you
need. You would much rather devote yourself to helping others attain those
dreams and visions that are the most important things in your life. Try to
learn to save aside a little nest egg for those times that inevitably seem to
come in your life when your resources just dry up and disappear. You are very
giving of what you have, so much so that others may take advantage of your
generosity. Seek the advice of a respected and down-to-earth advisor whenever
you ponder a major purchase — it never hurts to get a second opinion.
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 Pisces
You have strong feelings and are extremely sensitive. It would help if you had
a thicker skin — you tend to react emotionally to every situation you come
across. Kind, gentle and considerate of the feelings of others, you are good
at taking care of the sick, wounded and helpless. But you tend to absorb the
energy of others — so avoid those who are always negative. You have a rich,
creative and lively imagination, but you should be careful not to spend all
your time daydreaming. Very intuitive, you have good ESP and may be quite
clairvoyant or psychic. Remember that you too have the right to get what you
want from life. If you are always defensive and kowtowing to others, people
will take advantage of you and exploit you.
Jupiter in the Second
For you, material possessions signify security and protection and you will
devote much time and energy to gathering about you enough “things” to make
you feel safe and comfortable. When you feel secure, you are very giving and
sharing of your bounty, but, when you feel insecure or frustrated, you tend to
become more and more acquisitive and selfish, collecting more “things”
than anyone could ever possibly need or use. Generally, you love to spend your
money in a big way — preferring large, elegant purchases.
Jupiter in Pisces
You are at your best when you give of yourself and what you have — try to
avoid being a martyr about it, though. You’re a true idealist, but you must
learn not to be upset when life does not cooperate with the way you think
things should be. Very concerned with spiritual truth and growth, when you
practice what you preach, you make an excellent role model for others. You are
so devoted to altruistic ventures and concerns that you tire easily at times.
It then becomes necessary for you to go off by yourself to recharge your
batteries.
North Node in the Second
You’re justly proud of the groups you belong to and the alliances you have
formed. You tend to be extremely selective about your choice of associates —
you make sure well in advance that your goals are the same as that of the
group’s. Casual or trivial relationships have no interest for you. Once you’ve
made a commitment to someone or something, you can be counted on forever to be
supportive of them. A lack of spontaneity in your daily life may cause others
to judge you as being dull and set in your ways, but a well- ordered daily
routine seems to suit you just fine.
North Node in Pisces
You’re attracted to others who need your assistance. You seem to go out of
your way to form relationships with those who are weak, sick, injured,
addicted or troubled. At your best you can indeed provide the relief that
others need. But at times you can be victimized by those who would prey on
your good nature and take advantage of you. This can lead to all sorts of
negative situations. Make sure that those you assist are truly worthy of your
time, energy and commitment. A little enlightened self-protectiveness on your
part can make your life work much more smoothly.
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.
Aries on the Third
You are known for your ability to make quick, insightful decisions. Your mind
is active and alert and willing to take on the most difficult of challenges.
You love to communicate with others — indeed your mind works so fast that
others find it difficult to keep up with you. You live your daily life in a
whirlwind of activity, moving briskly from one task to another. You love to be
on the go, meeting people and doing things. You become very restless and
cranky when you are forced to curtail your normal routine.
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.
Taurus on the Fourth
At the very root of your being, you are quite cautious and conservative. You
prefer to know absolutely all the facts before making a move, and even then
you will rarely alter your course. Your views on life were set in concrete at
a very early age and it would take a major calamity for you to change them
now. You are totally attached to your family, home, culture and country, and
you will take every opportunity to defend them should you feel that they have
been threatened. Because you are not inherently a self-starter, look to others
to get your cues as to when to begin new ventures.
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.
Gemini on the Fifth
You have many hobbies and leisure-time pursuits. This is because you have a
relatively short attention span and something more interesting always seems to
be beckoning. Your agile mind and quick wit may attract you to writing as a
form of pleasurable activity. You are not sentimental about your lovers and
may actually have more than one relationship at any given time. It is not that
you are fickle — you just become more alive when you have multiple romantic
stimuli. The same attitude applies to your children, should you have any. You
do not bind them to you unnecessarily. Rather, you push them out on their own
as soon as possible and are proud of their educational accomplishments.
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.
Cancer on the Sixth
You want to mother everyone, either at your place of work, or by taking care
of the practical details of their lives. You are a very caring person and you
tend to take on all of the worries and responsibilities of others that you
possibly can in order to relieve these poor souls of their burdens. Knowing
what people need sometimes even before they do, you have a sixth sense about
the way to treat the public. When you feel secure and at peace, you can be
very effective at giving others what they need when they need it, and you can
be a popular leader. But when you are not feeling secure, you get moody and
crabby and are difficult to get along with. Your health is tied more to your
moods than it is to proper nutrition and exercise. It is most important that
you keep an upbeat and positive outlook, for then your health and other
aspects of your life will shine.
Uranus in the Sixth
Your working habits tend to be unstable and unstructured. Very restless, you
get impatient whenever anyone tries to get you to do things according to old,
established ways. You are very inventive and creative, however, and one of
your strong points is your ability to develop innovative solutions to
complicated problems. Because you tend to be impulsive, scattered and nervous,
others may regard you as unreliable. The only cure for this is to work on
developing self-discipline.
Uranus in Cancer
For you, and for your peers as well, the demand to be free from entangling
emotional bonds is of paramount importance. You have a unique and unfettered
view of family life and will be attracted to experimenting with freeform
styles of relationship commitments. This may lead to a rootless, unsettled
lifestyle.
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.
Leo on the Seventh
You seek personal and business partners of whom you can be proud, and are
attracted to those who are powerful, dominant and self-directed. Be careful
that all of this overwhelming energy is not directed toward you, for you could
find yourself locked in an awesome battle of wills in order to maintain the
independence that you value so highly. You have high aspirations for
partnerships, and see alliances as one way to attain your social, political or
cultural aspirations. You may go out of your way to attract those whose mere
association with you can move you ahead in the world. Beware of the temptation
to flatter and fawn over those you want to attract, because it does not really
become you.
Pluto in the Seventh
Relationships will be the cause of major life crises for you. You tend to take
partnerships (both business and personal) very seriously and you become
intensely emotional about them. Because you tend to attract others who are as
strong-willed as you are, and because you are so intense, relationships often
seem to be more like battlefields than mutually satisfying experiences. You
have a deep and abiding interest in studying human motivations and would make
a good counselor if you are so inclined. Try, however, to avoid the continuing
temptation to deal with others through guilt or some other subtle form of
manipulation.;
Pluto in Leo
Your entire generation was born at a time when the relationship of the
individual to society as a whole was being thoroughly re-examined. You and
your contemporaries will make major attempts to find a balance between the
need to be self-sufficient and the need to honor debts of social commitment.
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.
Virgo on the Eighth
You are very fastidious when it comes to sexual matters — you tend to
subject potential partners to minute inspection before getting involved with
them. The advantage of all this analysis is that it can certainly weed out the
losers ahead of time, but the obvious disadvantage is that spontaneity seems
to disappear and the romance of mating becomes cool and detached and
laboratory-like. You are also prudent and cautious about investing the
resources of yourself or others, which, in the long run, gives you excellent
business credentials. You will reap the benefits of careful, controlled growth
and will still be around long after the dashing speculators have disappeared.
Saturn in the Eighth
Your life is filled with major transformations and changes, but they usually
have a negative effect on you. This is because you tend to regard any new
direction as a death, an ending, and you grieve for what has now been lost.
You must learn instead to regard them as births, as new beginnings or new
directions that will present new challenges for you. Because of your fear of
change, you tend to withdraw and are unwilling to share what you have with
others. This overly cautious approach to resources has its good side, though
— you are unusually well qualified to care for the property and resources of
others.
Saturn in Libra
Although you take quite a while to make decisions, you usually consider all
sides to a question, all the pros and cons, and the solution you come up with
is very often the correct one. You tend to be very reserved and shy, but, once
you make a commitment to someone (in either a business or personal
relationship), the partnership is forever. You have a strong sense of justice
and fair play and greatly respect the laws and institutions by which you are
governed. As such, you are outraged when others break laws or show contempt
for authority.
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.
Libra on the Ninth
You are known for your ability to see both sides of a question, especially
when it comes to the more important questions involving ethics, morality and
philosophy. You recognize the necessity of fully exploring an issue and are
not afraid to do the appropriate research before coming to any conclusions.
You can remain unemotional and detached about the burning issues of the day,
but you find it difficult to actually formulate a consistent life philosophy
of your own due to your desire not to offend anyone by making a choice. As
such, you may be better qualified to make judgments for others than to give
yourself advice and counsel.
Neptune in the Ninth
You are fascinated by faraway peoples and worlds. An idealist and a dreamer,
you have difficulty dealing with everyday details and realities — you would
rather solve the world’s problems than wash the dishes or do the laundry.
Very compassionate and kind, you enjoy helping society’s misfits and
unfortunates. Your faith in the ultimate nobility and high standards of those
you meet often finds you disillusioned and disappointed when you wake up to
the fact that your idols really do have clay feet after all. Make sure that
the causes you espouse are really worth the sacrifices you are willing to make
for them.
Neptune in Libra
You and your entire generation idealized experimental approaches to
relationships such as “living together,” open marriage, and the formation
of communes and collectives. While your generation has a tendency toward
weakening commitments on an emotional and contractual level, on the spiritual
and metaphysical level it holds heightened expectations about commitment and
mutual support.
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.
Scorpio on the Tenth
You do not mind assuming a position “behind the scenes” as long as you
feel that you are being effective in making things happen. You combine
ambitiousness with a fixed intensity of purpose. Once you have determined a
course of action, you cannot be shaken from it, even if you are wrong. Your
decisions are usually correct though, because they result from long and
painstaking research. Beware of a tendency to always pursue things ruthlessly.
Try conciliation with others — don’t always be so willing to push things
to a crisis.
No planets in the Tenth
You have no planets in the tenth house of your horoscope. This definitely does
not mean that you will not have an illustrious or satisfying career — or
that you will never be properly motivated to be a success in life. Far from
it, it means that these issues are not as important for you as they are for
many others. It may indicate that your career goals will be driven by
influences from outside of you, so pay close attention to positive
opportunities that are presented to you. Look to the house and aspects of
Saturn to get further information on where you are more likely to be
disciplined and organized in your life.
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.
Sagittarius on the Eleventh
You are attracted to friendships and associations that allow you to expand
your awareness of the world around you. You like to be intellectually
stimulated by your friends and delight in spending time with them in
conversation about your mutual, wide-ranging interests. You may also have
several friends with whom you like to travel. Inherently restless, you learn
much by being exposed to people from cultures different from your own. The
worst thing that can happen to you is to have your friends make emotional
demands on you. You are quite uncomfortable with the thought that anyone else
might become dependent on you or vice versa. Given that others keep their
distance, however, you can be generous and openhanded.
Mercury in the Eleventh
A good team person, you do your best mental work with others who share common
life goals. Very gregarious, you need the support of others in order to feel
that you are making a contribution. Your humanitarian impulses usually allow
you to rise above personal judgments and to work for the good of all. You
enjoy testing your mind on your friends and associates, and love puzzles and
strategy games.
Mercury in Capricorn
Rather than being attracted to abstract thoughts and ideas, you prefer things
that are practical and useful. With this and your tendency to be highly
focused and goal-oriented, you have a good head for business. You are also
probably skillful at organizing, directing and planning activities. Your
thinking is careful, cautious and conservative, perhaps to the point where you
should beware of being narrow-minded and dogmatic. Your sense of humor is on
the earthy side, and may be either dry and self-deprecating, or slapstick and
crude.
Chiron in the Eleventh
Fear of large groups and discomfort in social situations could lead to
shyness, asocial behavior and a reputation for being a loner. On the other
hand, shunning large groups and organizations enables you to develop a
personal philosophy that reflects strong cultural, political and social
ideals. At one time or another, you may have gotten into trouble with your
outspoken ideas. Don’t let this prevent you from asserting your brilliant
insights. Just don’t expect everyone to agree with everything you say.
Chiron in Sagittarius
Your honesty and strong sense of justice earn you the respect and admiration
of others. At times, you can be judgmental and a fanatic about being right. As
a child, you may have lived abroad or moved around a great deal. Spending time
alone enabled you to learn self-reliance, to ruminate and develop a unique
approach to life. Your interesting journeys, remarkable friendships and
inspiring teachers contribute to your skills as an educator, journalist or
author.
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.
Capricorn on the Twelfth
You have grand ideas about how to better your own lot and the lot of everyone
else. You have developed schemes and plans that cannot miss, but something
seems to be holding you back. You have a nagging and persistent fear of
failure that makes you agonize about taking the initial steps necessary to get
things moving. This overly practical side of your nature confuses you because
you do not like to think of yourself in that light. Learn to put it to good
use by altering your plans so that they proceed on a strict schedule that
allows for little error. If you can remain satisfied with small but
significant gains and lower your expectations for quick feedback, you can
satisfy both sides of your nature.
Many planets in the Twelfth
Whether your earliest attempts to make a mark in the world were regarded as
victories or defeats (by you) will be all-important in determining the ease
with which you attain later goals. If you thought they were defeats (they
might not have been in others’ eyes), you will tend to set yourself up for
future defeats by choosing situations for action that are inherently
difficult. Be more at ease with yourself — try not to let the ghosts of the
past intrude on a present that has untold positive possibilities for future
growth. As F.D.R. said, you “have nothing to fear but fear itself.” You
are stronger than you think you are.
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 Capricorn
Extremely serious and mature, you are capable of accepting responsibilities
and do so willingly. Others expect you to be dutiful as a matter of course.
You may get angry when people are rewarded after not having worked nearly as
hard as you have. Goal-oriented and an achiever, you are justifiably proud of
the tangible results of your efforts. You are not a fast worker, but you are
thorough, and you are known for being unusually persistent, tireless and
tenacious in reaching your goals. When you’re working, you tend to have a
kind of tunnel vision that allows you to block out extraneous matters that
would distract others. Your power to concentrate totally on the matter at hand
enables you to be practical and efficient at managing and structuring complex,
ongoing projects.
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.
