SECTION I.  The Structure and Intent of Your Life.

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

     A.  Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis

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

          1. Hemisphere

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

Most planets Below the Horizon

You have the majority of your planets below the horizon showing that you need time each day in isolation in order to recharge your batteries.  You have a personal approach to life, preferring to work with people more than things and needing contact with the familiar in order to feel secure.

          2. Quadrant

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

Most Planets in the Second Quadrant

You have the majority of your planets in the second quadrant showing that you will seek out the life experience that increases your sense of belonging, your sense of connectedness, your sense of personal expression.  You aim to develop a more secure and meaningful social life that offers a wide spectrum of emotional expression and unfoldment.  You desire to create.

     B.  Elements and Modes

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

          1. Elements

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

Fire

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

Earth

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

Air

You have 30% of your chart in the air element.  You vacillate between being very interested in people and ideas and needing time by yourself. Periodic isolation and an involvement with routine, commonplace activities that do not require innovation are relaxing for you.  You need both spontaneous activities as well as predictable patterns in your life.

Water

You have 20% of your chart in the water element.  You work hard during this life to develop your emotions.   You have lots of opportunity to work on your feelings.  Your sense of emotional inadequacy drives you to express your feelings more.  The outward appearance of caring substitutes for real concern while you are young; true empathy develops later in life.

          2. Modes

The three modes are CARDINAL, FIXED, and MUTABLE.  The modes of expression show how you act out your urges in the world.  They represent your most basic responding mechanism toward all of life experience.  The cardinal planets show direct expression in physical action, leadership ability and strength.  The fixed mode planets in your chart show reaction, consistency, persistency, endurance and stubbornness.  The mutable planets in your chart show synthesis, blending, malleableness, thought, forethought, debate and wisdom.  The following statements show the way the three modes manifest in your life.

Cardinal

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

Fixed

You have 30% of your planets in the fixed mode.  You know how to persist on a course of action that you have selected.  On the other hand, you have good sense generally as to when to desist. You are well poised between your ability to change and your inclination to let your habits carry you forward.

Mutable

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

     C.  The Ascendant and Midheaven (Signs and Aspects)

          1.  The Ascendant

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

                              CANCER RISING

You have a deep nostalgic and emotional streak.  Family, community and the past color your vision of life and what you see as the possible. Your winning quality is that you are very personable and kind.  You are sensitive and may try to conceal the depth of your feelings in any relationship because you are afraid of your sensitivity being used against you.  You attempt to make your world safe by excluding anyone or anything that you can't bond with.  This means that you have more trouble than most getting new ingredients into your experience.  Your relationship to your parents and your parents' relationship to each other will tend to be replicated in all of your interactions in life. Issues that have to do with your family life have a certain priority on your consciousness because of this.

Moon Trine the Ascendant

You are able to convey your feelings naturally, with emphasis and dramatic flare.  This ability to present common everyday feelings to others as if they were very important can win you an excellent public. You are at ease in any social situation because you are basically at peace with yourself.  You seem to know what others want and how you can satisfy their needs.  You express yourself in a personable way that others can understand.  You perform the most routine and simple tasks in life as if they were interesting and fun.

Venus Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 1st House and unafflicted

You are a charmer.  People like you initially and this attribute helps tremendously in making your way in life.  There is an artistic streak in you that others will help manifest if you show any consistent interest in expressing it.  Your physical presence has such a positive impact on others it can well sway an issue or decision in your direction.

Mars Sextile the Ascendant

You are a vigorous team player and an energetic competitor.  You like being in situations that require everyone to give their best.  You can excel in life based on this single quality if you have a clear direction.  Exercise for pleasure is fine but having a sense of accomplishment means seeing your efforts come to something.

Jupiter Opposition the Ascendant and in the 6th House and unafflicted.

You expect to learn from others in life; therefore, relationships become quite important.  You have figured out that the best way to learn is to serve others.  By doing this, others open up to you and concentrate on their relationship to you because it becomes important. By this you are able to extract all of the knowledge and goodness from the relationship that it can offer. You have extra insight as to what blocks others in life so you can be a good and sympathetic listener. Your problem solving skills work well for you and are appreciated by others.

Neptune Quincunx the Ascendant

You have real difficulty seeing others as they are.  Trying to be more practical in your approach to relationships is probably a waste of time.  Instead, try to emulate the higher more endearing qualities that you attribute to others.  Further, when you see things that you really don't like in others, engage in some deeper self examination.  Your life improves as you clarify the perception of these characteristics, why they come to your attention, and why they bother you.

Pluto Square the Ascendant

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

          2.  The Midheaven

The Midheaven is the high point in your chart.  It indicates what you aspire for, what you see as your duty, and what authority and limits are about.  Because of this basic meaning the Midheaven indicates how you live out your social station and what you do for your career.  The point opposite the Midheaven is the fourth house cusp, referred to as the nadir, which is the indication of our roots, our heritage. This axis (Midheaven-Nadir) indicates the way we grow in life.  The sign on the Midheaven shows our basic energy and approach toward dealing with the world.  Planets in aspect to the Midheaven show qualities of our inner being that we wish to contribute to the world and that we wish to be fulfilled through our interaction with the outer world.

                            PISCES MIDHEAVEN

The natural high-mindedness that you approach career with may seem naive to others.  You are the perennial youth.  The world often helps you because of your ideals.  You have an easier time when you stick to a single course of action long enough to see results.

Mercury Quincunx the Midheaven

The plans that you make may come to nothing many times, but, this is not bad if every time you stumble, you learn something about yourself. The world is a fascinating place for you and you can be prompted to learn about many subjects.  Success is found in continuity and depth as well as diversity.  Learning to keep fixed on the goals you have chosen, while having no particular commitment to the method for its achievement, brings you to your quickest method of accomplishment.

Venus Trine Midheaven

Your timing and sense of social grace really facilitate  your getting along with others.  You like working with people and have a gentle side of your personality that emerges in career.  You will long for some artistic expression.

Saturn Square Midheaven

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

Uranus Quincunx the Midheaven

You are one of the world's truly unique people.  You may be misunderstood a good deal, but, other people's perception of you and what you are doing can inadvertently help you a great deal. Be open to the unusual and the "once in a life time" opportunities that come to you.   Learning how to integrate your own peculiar rhythm with the steady pulse of the rest of your society is challenging, but once this skill is mastered and you not only have an interesting and satisfying life, but, you have fun.

     D. The Conjunctions.

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

Sun Conjunct Mars

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

SECTION II.  The SUN - Your Ego Structure

The Sun is the center of the solar system.  All life revolves around it within this sphere.  In the same way, the ego is the center of personal identity and gives integration and continuity to individual experience. In this sense, it might be said that the Sun shows character.  This is the fixed pillar at the center of the person around which all else circulates or revolves.

The sign placement of the Sun shows the center of the individual's basic character.  The sign of the Sun is the most primary indicator of the forms of experience you are attracted to.  Further, this most important placement shows how and why you are attracted to these experiences.

The house placement of the Sun sign shows the primary area of expression for the individual in life.  There is a psychological, emotional, and physical significance to the house placement of the Sun. Aspects to the Sun show ways that the core of the personality are linked to other component elements in the individual's life.  Aspects to the Sun have a deep and overriding significance in the life of the individual and are generally more important, more prominent than other aspects in the chart.

SUN IN LEO

You clearly see yourself as the center of your own life.  You radiate a natural joy and goodness to life.  You have a strong inner dignity and sense of self-respect.  You must have some self-expression in life and you will look at any activity as a chance to create.  Although you are somewhat theatrical and flamboyant, you inspire others who often get some vicarious enjoyment through watching you.  Pay more attention to detail and show more concern for other people's needs and your life automatically becomes more fulfilling.

Sun in 3rd house

You get off to a fast start in life.  You expect to be good at what you do.  You see competency as primarily a matter of experience, and you set out to gather a broad understanding of people, your environment and life in your early years.  The natural lines of growth in life show that you concentrate on communication and learning as your self-picture develops.

Sun in 3rd house Unafflicted

You are dynamic and enthusiastic, a natural communicator and doer.  You create the picture of someone who is fun loving and generous.  Others tend to like you very much.  You do best in projects that can be completed quickly.

SUN SEMI-SQUARE VENUS

You have a pleasant appearance and know how to get along with others. You may find yourself locked into a situation where you can see more than you can materialize.  The difficulty here is that your goals move forward when you do, so they always stay out in front of you and you never seem to get where you are going.  A self-dissatisfaction can always be hanging in the air.  Thinking more of others and less of yourself is one of the few things that breaks through the hard crust of ignorance.  Concentrating on the concerns of others punctures the myth of isolation which is the real cause of your false sense of self-dissatisfaction.  You are prone to petty vanities and extravagant spending when you are feeling defeated.  You can avoid this pitfall by learning genuine self acceptance.  Once learned, you become a real joy to be around.

SUN CONJUNCT MARS

You need an outlet for the dynamic energy that fills you.  Your drive is strong; your desire nature red hot.  Difficulties come when you try to be sedentary or when you try to do everything everyone else's way. You need self-expression.  You are a pioneer.  You need to be able to "call your own shots" in some area of your life.  When you feel angry, develop harmless physical movements to reduce stress.  Next, get in the habit of examining your own drives as the origin of your discomfort.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

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

SUN TRINE YOUR JUPITER

OK, you are genuinely lucky.  Others want to hop on your "bandwagon" when you move toward a goal.  You have the ability to turn one win into another, creating incredible momentum.  You know how to create enthusiasm and excitement for any project while at the same time having fun.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You are self-disciplined and self-aware.  You are ambitious and are willing to work hard to put your vision into action.  Your naturally conservative instincts lead on a safe and sure path although it may well be a slow one.  Being basically of sound judgment and reliable, people tend to trust you; these qualities alone may put you in a position of leadership at some point.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR SATURN

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

SECTION III.  The MOON - Your Personal Life.

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

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

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

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

MOON IN SCORPIO

You  are  intense  and  determined.    You  take  your  emotions  very  seriously.  You  have  a  deep  attachment  to  the  past  and  a  passionate  and  proud  nature,  willing  to  go  your  own  way  when  the  crowd  is  moving  in  the  wrong  direction.    You  have  the  ability  to  make  your  life  better  because  you  know  how  to  use  past  experiences  positively.    Your  feelings  are  quite  magnetic  and  people  either  love  or  hate  you,  but  they  are  seldom  indifferent  to  you.

Moon in 5th house

You have a strong need for recognition.  Your habits are unique and pronounced.  Not that your friends will think that what you do is different, but rather, you tend to become the standard in every group to which you belong.

Moon in 5th house Unafflicted

A warm nurturing energy is a central ingredient of your way of dealing with others.  Your dramatic, emotional expressions help your children, friends, clients and students feel better about themselves.  You are the recipient of love, affection and admiration from people who only know your public image.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MERCURY

You have a restless mind and a lively imagination.  You learn quickly because you can imitate what you see others do.  It is possible to become over-sensitive to the environment and to make changes that are unnecessary through excessive imagination, worry, and slipshod, careless methodology.  Your interest in communicating your ideas and perceptions to others often needs to be slowed down a little.  Strive to make your information gathering and study habits stable and regular.

MOON SQUARE YOUR MERCURY

You are clever and able to explain yourself well, regardless of the situation.  Your wit can be quite biting and sarcastic.  Your ability to explain a situation verbally is not always based on any real understanding.  Actually, your penetration into a subject can be quite superficial.  You grow more in your own understanding when you look for long term results and look less to the acceptance of your expressions.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR VENUS

You have a naturally pleasing manner.  You seem to know what people expect and how to present yourself.  Women often play a key role in your life because you really understand them instinctively.  You are a gentle person preferring diplomacy to confrontation.  Your grace and elegance puts others at ease.

MOON TRINE YOUR VENUS

You are materially well off and very used to having the finer things in life.  This refined taste of yours is especially evident with your choice of personal adornments and home furnishings.  You are able to make some happiness emerge from any relationship, thus you are popular and have a good public image and are physically attractive.  You are usually quite happy in marriage.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  MARS

You are an ardent lover and an enthusiastic lover of life.  You are brave and prepared to fight for a point of view.  Your self-assertiveness and assertion can thrust you into a position of emotional leadership.  You are a builder and a doer.

MOON SEXTILE YOUR MARS

Your strong opinions and quick incisive actions, fire your drive toward freedom.  If you can't lead, your next choice is to act independently. You are sharp in your criticism of others and are willing to fight for your point of view if and when necessary.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  JUPITER

You are religious, dignified with a sense of justice which gives you a public image of being honorable and trustworthy.  You are well liked and successful.  You have a strong moral sense and are willing to take a stand on your beliefs.  The good comes to you in life.

MOON SEXTILE YOUR JUPITER

You are diplomatic, having an uncanny knack for knowing the right thing to say and do for others.  Your instinctive belief in uniform, natural life processes, assists you as you discover imaginative solutions to difficulties.  You like life and people. They like you back.  Trust is the key ingredient that makes life work.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You are outwardly successful in life even though you have to go through some inner pain in your personal life.  Your greatest virtue is that you do learn from your mistakes.  You correct your own actions and go on.  Your life may have several low points while you are reorganizing after a setback.  You will be hard-pressed to sort out your true responsibilities and may find the day to day planning of your time to be quite challenging.

MOON SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR SATURN

Doubt of self and fear of failure make life worrisome, but life is easier when you accept that you have periodic interruptions in your path to success as well as changes in direction every so often.  These aren't comfortable but all part of the process.

SECTION IV.  MERCURY - Your Mental Life.

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun.  From the viewpoint of the earth it seems to dart back and forth across the face of the Sun, having three retrograde cycles a year.  Mercury is the planet of your mental life.  It shows how you receive, process and disseminate information. The sign placement of Mercury shows your basic attitude and mental habits.  The aspects of Mercury show your scope of vision and your methods for accomplishing tasks.

MERCURY IN LEO

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

Mercury in 2nd house

You are good at finding immediate application for the resources at your disposal.  You think in terms of value.  Travel and communication skills may play some role in the way that money and material resources work in your life.

Mercury in 2nd house Unafflicted

One of your greatest assets is knowing how to correctly appraise the worth of something.  You can always use your skills in a way where circulation creates abundance.

MERCURY IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

This indicates that you have a very personal, feeling mind. You have a very close personal use for your mental life. The details of this connection were discussed in Section III.  The Moon -Your personal life.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

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

MERCURY SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR JUPITER

You stay in constant motion both in your mind and on the earth. You are always putting your goals, beliefs, and values, out in front of yourself, then trying to live them.  This stretches you beyond your actual foundations.  Your high aims keep you in motion as you attempt to materialize your thoughts.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

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

MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR URANUS

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

SECTION V.  VENUS - Your Love Nature.

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

VENUS IN CANCER

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

Venus in 1st house

You are loving and often physically attractive.  You know what to present to others and you are good at putting on a happy face. Your sense of taste and social diplomacy is noticed by others. You like other people and desire their appreciation.

Venus in 1st house Unafflicted

Your charm and basic honesty attracts people into your life. Your artistic instincts can be developed into genuine talent, for you can see the beauty in life.  Others see this beauty manifest in you, as you have a knack for putting your best foot forward.

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

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

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

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

VENUS OPPOSITION YOUR JUPITER

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

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

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

VENUS SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

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

SECTION VI.  MARS - Your Energy.

Mars is the planet of desires.  It shows how you aim at your goals and how you power yourself toward your goals.  Mars represents your most fundamental wants.  The sign placement of Mars shows the fundamental nature of your assertions.  The house placement of Mars shows the area of your life you are most likely to focus on.  The aspects to Mars show how and to what extent your desires and assertions are involved with other aspects of living.

MARS IN VIRGO

Your desire for technical perfection can mean that you end up suppressing your wants.  You do have skills but often lack the drive to do much with them.  You need to build self-confidence. You work well in any area that allows you to serve others or that lets you create order.  When it comes to careful, detailed work, you are either a pro or you get completely entangled in the minutiae and the situation decays around you.  You take comfort in carefully defined details in any situation. Consequently, any time you feel threatened you retreat into details that make you feel safe.  The trade-off? Certainty costs you vision; you loose sight of the larger picture. You learn to see "the forest for the trees" when you become more courageous.

Mars in 3rd house

You are a quick learner in youth.  The dynamic energy for life and learning carries you through your teen years.  As a young adult you may build unrealistic self-assessments into your way of learning.  This comes because you expect life to follow along the same groove that it did when you were young.  It doesn't!  You will need patience to learn as an older person.  You favor a direct manner of expression and others see you as being mentally assertive.

Mars in 3rd house Unafflicted

You convey the picture of yourself to the world as a brilliant communicator.  You are a quick study, learning at the surface level of perception much more easily than others.  You learn "how" without needing to learn "why" and then go on to something else.  Remember the race between the hare and the tortoise?  The hare can always win if it has the drive to keep going.  Select projects that finish quickly.  You can focus your attention easily on short term goals; long drawn out endeavors require different skills.  This talent will get you quickly out of the "starting gate".

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

Mars in aspect to the Moon shows that you have a lot of energy wrapped up in your instinctive consciousness.  This insight is detailed out in Section III.  The Moon - Your Personal Life.

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

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

MARS TRINE YOUR JUPITER

Your energy naturally flows toward your goals.  You enjoy competing for the sake of the contest.  Your ability to push yourself to the limits and enjoy it keeps you on a path of personal improvement.  Many around you find your enthusiasm contagious.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You have quite a temper and your anger will be a stumbling block in life until you have handled it.  You hate being trapped and act quite selfishly when cornered.  This is overcome when you corral your emotional energy and find some peace of mind.  Three things aid in this process.  One, you need physical exercise every day in order to feel emotionally balanced and in good health.  This is a release for your nervous energy.  Two, you need to come to terms with the nature of your desires.  Study your own nature to see what motivates you. This allows you to not blame others for your emotions or the situations you have gotten into.  Three, develop a long range view of change that symbolizes freedom to you.  You are a powerful innovator and just need to re-channel your energy so that you don't have to create and experience so much disharmony.

MARS SEMI-SQUARE YOUR URANUS

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

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

When you speak, others listen.  You stir people to rethink basic assumptions.  You need to be careful that high ideals do not become an excuse for inaction, or that theory doesn't take the place of practice.  There is a spiritual quality to your thoughts that can point to fanatic rambling and an impractical attitude toward the responsibilities of life.  Avoid drugs, alcohol and anything that can be devitalizing.  You need to constantly re-check your direction so as to ensure absolute integrity of purpose.  You are prone to expound a belligerent philosophy while harboring escapist fantasies.

MARS SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your ideals hold such sway over your drives that you look deep for ultimate expression before you act.  Devotional and inspiring, you can be quite a magnetic leader as you truly believe in your causes. Finding your niche in society is very important in order for the positive side of your artistic instincts to emerge.

SECTION VII.  JUPITER - Your Values.

Jupiter is the king of the planets.  He is in charge of the order of creation.  Jupiter shows your values, where you feel confident and in control, and where you feel you have something to teach others.  The sign placement of Jupiter shows your values in life. The house placement of Jupiter shows the area of life you feel luckiest in and the area you receive the most help from other people and from the cosmos.  The aspect patterns to Jupiter show the direct network of good and administrative power in your life.

JUPITER IN SAGITTARIUS

You are motivated by higher ideals than the material world.  You are philosophical, inspirational, forward-looking and exceedingly tolerant.  You are generous to the point of extravagance.  You believe in yourself and life and consequently life believes in you.  There is a lighthearted side of your nature that is forever liberated.  Your values and aims in life are lofty and require you to set a very high personal standard.  Living up to this standard gives you optimism and growth.  Unless you are very well integrated (where your actions and values always agree) you will shuttle between two courses of action, the higher representing the real you, and the lower symbolizing your past.  You are prone to a duplicity; your ideals are persevered in a higher abstract realm while less lofty characteristics determine the course of events in your life.  When your ideals are too spiritual or too religious for your life pathway at the moment, you can be prone toward hypocrisy.  If this is the case, you will engage in compensatory actions to acknowledge the freedom side of your nature. You may overspend or waste energy in purely symbolic actions that point toward an ideal.  These actions don't move you forward much but also don't damage you much.  You have a love of freedom that carries you far in your mind and on the surface of the earth.

Jupiter in 6th house

You are a very resourceful worker and can make a lot happen in relatively little time.  You can be uncompromisingly disciplined when you see the need for it.  Overdoing or overindulgence can be the source of health frustrations.  You may have to work at learning moderation.

Jupiter in 6th house Unafflicted

You are a great enabler.  Even if the program and ideas originated with someone else, you know how to get things done. You are excellent in being able to attract the best from others in a work situation.  You know how to play on the team.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have an aspect from Jupiter to the Moon showing an interest in expressing values through your daily life.  What you believe has more impact on what you do than it does for most other people.  The information on this topic in Section III.  (The Moon - Your Personal Life) may be helpful in grasping how you do this.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

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

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO VENUS

You have an aspect of Jupiter to Venus.  This indicates that you expect the positive to happen.  Your life values easily adjust to your taste, love nature and your sense for the beautiful.  This creates some feeling of abundance for you.  Your values are in tune with your affection.  You may find the information in Section V.  (Venus - Your Love Nature) useful in understanding this process.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO MARS

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

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

This life certainly has its ups and downs for you.  Your tendency to exaggerate, overindulge or over-commit yourself gets you in trouble until you adopt the philosophy of life that "you get out of life what you contribute." At this point you stop trying to get something for nothing and your financial picture becomes much more stable.  You get in your own way at times by over-assertion or saying the wrong thing. You can have a bluntness and a vulgarity that creates a negative picture that you may have a hard time overcoming.  Gain control of your own life and the path to higher success is not only swift but fun.

JUPITER SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

Intensity and hard work doesn't always give good results.  When you become compulsive, your problems often grow exponentially rather than just reaching a resolution.  However, there is a side benefit from this expansion.  Your efforts at problem solving bring new items of interest to the surface and you plow through the fields of your daily existence. You learn about life, yourself, and your value system by seeing the kinds of difficulties you attract.  The worst disasters in your life seem to leave you unscathed and this type of luck should give you deep gratitude.

SECTION VIII.  SATURN - Your Obligations.

The planet Saturn shows where you feel restricted.  You feel obligations and fears through Saturn.  Because of your feeling connected with Saturn you are either responsible or neglectful. The sign placement of Saturn shows the basic type of energy connected with your obligations.  The house placement of Saturn shows an area of life that you feel restricted in and work hard to obtain the things that come to you.  The aspects of Saturn show the most direct involvement of other areas of your life with your feelings of responsibility.

SATURN IN GEMINI

You are afraid of being tied down and will shuttle between many options to avoid being stuck.  You are attempting to refine your mind. You work best on mental projects that can be finished swiftly.  You have a glibness that comes out under these circumstances and it is put to good use.  You are highly adaptable.  Without discipline you are a dilettante.  With proper training and focus you become an accurate and versatile disseminator of thoughts.

Saturn in 12th house

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

Saturn in 12th house Unafflicted

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

SATURN IN ASPECT THE SUN

You have Saturn in aspect to the Sun showing that you identify deeply with your obligations in life.  This aspect of your nature is explored more deeply in Section II.  The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

SATURN IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have Saturn in aspect to the Moon showing a close relationship between your upbringing and your emotional outlook. This connection is explored in its essence in Section III.  The Moon - Your Personal Life.

SATURN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You have a balance respect for the new innovative insights (that are always occurring to you), for what empirically works, and the traditional approaches to which we still have attachments.  This can give you an air of diplomacy and stoicism.  You know how to get things done and have some patience with circumstances in the world.

SATURN TRINE YOUR URANUS

Good organizational skills and diplomacy leads you toward continuous progress.  Because you have inherent respect for tradition, you build your future on firm foundations.  You experience more freedom as you get older.

SECTION IX.  URANUS - Your Search For Freedom.

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

URANUS IN LIBRA

You have a special genius for getting involved in unusual relationships.  You may supply leadership or just be a member of the team, but you really come into your own in cooperative efforts.

Uranus in 4th house

You learned self-expression from your family.  Being your own person was an important value.  Your career may have many peaks and valleys as your need for uniqueness may periodically override your need for accomplishment.  The game of life is won or lost on abrupt changes that challenge your ability to adapt.

Uranus in 4th house Unafflicted

You will have several changes of residence.  You express yourself a lot through your environment.  Your desire for personal freedom grows stronger as you get older.  You express this desire through social involvement.  Your ability to find a unique expression for your desires becomes increasingly linked to the well-being of society and your fellow man.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

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

URANUS IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have Mars in aspect to Uranus which means you are attempting to raise the vibration of your desire nature during the course of this life.  Exactly how that works out in the day to day world is shown by Section VI.  Mars - Your Energy.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO SATURN

You have Uranus in aspect with your Saturn.  This indicates that you are attempting to accommodate the urge for security and the urge for freedom.  More detail on this blending is in Section VIII.  Saturn -Your Obligations.

URANUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

Your idealism is lopsided and tends to be at odds with the society you live in and the direction of your culture.  This doesn't make your ideals wrong, just impractical.  You are prone to nervous fits and disturbed periods where it is difficult to accomplish much and difficult to relax.  Somehow you seem to express your society's dissatisfaction with itself.  Your life betters through the study of meditation, biofeedback, yoga, and/or grounding or centering activities.

URANUS SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Unusual occurrences in your everyday life can stop you from changing direction even when necessary.  Expression of your own uniqueness can be difficult for you because the outcome seems uncertain and this can leave you confused.  Overcoming fear is a major step in self expression.

SECTION X.  NEPTUNE - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.

The planet Neptune has an almost perfectly circular orbit.  It represents the part of our nature that strives for perfection, that looks to some higher ideal.  The planet Neptune rules the ocean and the part of us that is beyond the limits of the shores of personal existence.  The culture moves with the cycles of Neptune and it is the primary indicator of your connection to the culture that you live in. The sign of Neptune shows an ideal that you desire to manifest.  The house placement of Neptune shows the area of your life that you want to express this ideal in.  The aspect patterns of Neptune indicate the most direct connections yet most subtle networking of your personality into the world at large.

NEPTUNE IN SAGITTARIUS

You believe that the power to visualize a better world will create it. You have a love of freedom and philosophical ideas; you are by nature optimistic.

Neptune in 6th house

You are naturally altruistic.  Your desire to help others is also part of the picture of being overly sensitive to the environment. This can contribute to a negative health picture.  Health generally gets worse through inactivity and better through movement and assertion.

Neptune in 6th house Unafflicted

You inspire devotion in your co-workers.  People who work for you may be quite loyal.  You have an easy demeanor while going through your daily tasks.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have Neptune in aspect with your Mars.  This shows that you are idealistic and have a magnetic personality.  How this works out in your life is described in Section VI.  Mars - Your Energy.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO URANUS

You have Neptune in aspect to Uranus showing that one part of your nature will have a propensity to act out the unexpected. How this manifests is indicated in Section IX.  Uranus - Your Search for Freedom.

NEPTUNE IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are fundamentally an idealist.  You would like to see change come about in a way that doesn't destroy the existing social order.  You believe in transition and transformation as saner and kinder principles of social change than revolutionary upheaval.

NEPTUNE SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

Your higher ideals are the continuous recipient of forceful energy for change.  Your long range perspective (even though this may at times be unconscious) is always toward your ideals winning out through deep self transformation.

SECTION XI.  PLUTO - Your Need For Fundamental Change.

The planet Pluto represents the dark underground part of you.  It shows your ability to transform the most fundamental properties in your own inner nature.  The sign of Pluto is the way the obsessive, compulsive and committed part of your nature expresses itself.  The house placement of Pluto shows the area of life where you make your most fundamental and most potent changes. The aspects to Pluto show the deepest most unconscious links in your personality structure.

PLUTO IN LIBRA

At best, you are genuinely in love with peace and beauty.  You wish for justice and harmony.  At worst, you are detached to the point of having no particular viewpoint of your own.  You go with the winds of fortune, rationalizing and blocking all the way. Expressing your true feelings to others helps you access the deeper issues that sidetrack your attempts to transform your life.

Pluto in 4th house

You have a deep attachment to your family, home and your original roots.  This quality may mean that you find traveling difficult or that you need periods of seclusion and retreat from the world. As you get older the whole world seems to be home.

Pluto in 4th house Unafflicted

You have a transformative effect on everyone you are close to. You have a deep wellspring of power and knowledge that surfaces at intervals under stress.  Your feelings and thoughts blend together; it is hard to separate one from the other as your childhood experiences were so feeling-oriented.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO VENUS

You have an aspect of Pluto to Venus showing that you have a very deeply entrenched love nature that you are transforming.  The details of this are discussed in Section V.  Venus - Your Love Nature.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO JUPITER

You have an aspect of Pluto to Jupiter showing that you have a deep connection with the abundance of the earth.  How this works out is taken up in Section VII.  Jupiter - Your Values.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO NEPTUNE

You have an aspect of Pluto to Neptune which shows your involvement in a large cultural process.  This involvement is described in Section X. Neptune - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.

SECTION XII.  SUMMATION.

     A.  YOUR UNIQUENESS

Part of your style of being a person is tied to your personal method of adapting to and interacting with other people.  This aspect of your personality shows itself through every aspect of how you deal with the environment.  This method of your being encourages as well as reveals your uniqueness.

YOUR MAJOR PLANETARY ASPECT IS A SQUARE.

You have lots of energy and you need it.  Your life changes through the resolving of conflicts.  You are a fighter and you get clarity by drawing lines between the perceived good and bad of the moment.  Your inclination is to be action oriented first, and reason things out after the battle.  Your hunches are based on the odds.  You take an empirical approach to problem solving. Your keyword is Energy.

     B.  YOUR EASIEST AREAS.

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

Sun in Leo.

The strength and surety of your ego structure is a tremendous personal asset.  Your ability to naturally and immediately focus all your attention on your own self is a help in everything you do.

Jupiter in Sagittarius.

Your instinctive judgment of what is important in life has you moving in the right direction in the most general terms.  Your life betters through the study of philosophy, religion, faraway places and ideas, as well as the spiritual path.

     C.  YOUR MOST PERSISTENT DIFFICULTIES.

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

Moon in Scorpio

You are putting the personal life behind you in this life.  You live with emotional extremes.  You have very strong likes and dislikes. When you overcome moodiness and desire a life oriented toward home and family you are happy.

Mercury in Leo

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

Venus in the First House

You may suffer from a heavy dose of vanity.  The only way out of a self-created trap is when your picture of yourself has risen to identify with all life.  Then, you build relationships on love and beauty that are unique and lasting.

Jupiter in the Sixth House

You throw yourself into action without seeing the big picture. Often, you end up putting energy into a situation that cannot work out as favorably as you wish or expect.  Check your enthusiasm until you see your future picture of yourself clearly enough that you can envision how it connects with your present course of action.

Neptune in the Sixth House

You need to avoid taking on the stress of the culture.  You can get into a pattern of free-floating anxiety based on not seeing clearly how your daily habits overlap with the needs of the culture.  It becomes easier to get to your goal if you don't retreat from the items in everyday life that have to be done.

     D.  THE GROWTH ASPECTS

The  Growth  aspects  operate  differently  than  other  aspects  in  your  chart.    While  it  is  possible  to  use  them  descriptively,  as  showing  finer  shades  of  meaning  within  the  chart,  we  wish  to  use  them  in  a  different  manner  for  our  purposes.    The  growth  aspects  are  tools  of  self  development.    If  you  apply  attention  to  the  various  qualities  in  your  nature  linked  through  the  growth  aspects,  you  will  see  positive  change  over  time.    These  qualities  generally  do  not  show  quick  effortless  solutions,  but  instead  show  a  path  of  change  requiring  exertion  and  emotional  honesty.  Under  these  circumstances,  the  way  these  aspects  of  your  nature  change  through  time  are  truly  amazing.  The  qualities  mentioned  here  can  be  the  very  mechanisms  to  release  the  highest,  finest  side  of  your  nature.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Neptune

You have an overly sensitive response mechanism to life which you periodically express and occasionally cover over.  Facing the inconsistent emotional components of your imagination allows you to gradually corral this side of your nature into your daily habits in a useful and enriching way.

Moon Semi-Sextile Neptune

The sensitive and otherworldly side of your nature requires some focusing on your part in order to enjoy an expression of your higher vision of truth and aesthetic taste that is in touch with how you really feel.  Through time and trial and error, you learn positive expression but you must overcome shyness about showing others your true inner feelings.

Venus in Growth Aspect to Neptune

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

Venus Quincunx Neptune

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

Mars in Growth Aspect to Pluto

There is a compulsive side of your personality and you have some learning to do in this life connected with how your energy operates. Knowing when to stop or start a project is not so much a matter of timing as it is a matter of how to invest your energy.  You can avoid something you want, thinking it will require too much from you, or, start on some project, then go overboard trying to bring it to fruition.  Once involved in a project it is necessary to see how to regulate your energy as you do become so obsessed with the outcome or so addicted to the process that you lose sight of your general well being.

Mars Semi-Sextile Pluto

Since your own energy tends to be more focused on your own inner processes, it is easy for you to lose track of goals, desires and other people.  This in itself can be problematic, but rather than divert your attention away from yourself, you usually develop faster by focusing on how your own desires "link in" with larger social needs.  Being self absorbed is okay for you during the time you are evaluating your personal desires in relationship to the larger picture.  This comparison and subsequent alignment becomes your method of development.

     E.  THE DECLINATIONS

There is another dimension to your astrology chart.  This has to do with planets being the same distance from the celestial equator.  When both planets are on the same side of this plane there are called parallel.  When the planets are the same distance but on opposite sides of the celestial equator they are referred to as being contra-parallel. Both of these aspect activate your ability to organize and reorganize some aspect of your life.

Sun Parallel Mercury

You place great importance on the mental faculty but you may yourself be quite nervous and temperamental.  Fixing the  worlds' problems starts with fixing your own physical and psychological instability. Once this is completed you are able to offer others a clarity of vision that is quite helpful in sorting out the details of normal cause and effect in your life and in the lives of others.

Sun Parallel Pluto

You thrive on intensity.  There are deep wellsprings of strength and mystery within you that only seem to gain fulfillment through long protracted struggles.  Much of your fighting in life is inner and unconscious.  This can surface as allegorical reactions to people or things in your environment. You invoke strong responses from others, everything from ignoring you to direct challenging of you, to wanting to assist you.  When you get personal you get focused and your persistence can be a real asset.

Mercury Parallel Pluto

The desire to get to the bottom of an idea, a thought process, or happening in life can give you the temperament of a researcher but, it can also imbue you with a certain closed-mindedness (even paranoia) which gets in the way of productively searching out new information. Focus and tenacity of purpose give mental strength but, they can also produce allergic reactions to people, environments, and ideas. Fascination and repulsion mysteriously blend and operate simultaneously in your inner life.

Uranus Parallel Midheaven

Sudden changes emerge in your life and if you are good at going along with the changes your life is easy.  If you resist them you become quite nervous and your path turns from spontaneous joy to periodic upset.  Be willing to take abrupt changes, then life is fun.

Venus Contra-Parallel Neptune

A higher vision of truth and beauty lives within you, giving interest in the arts and a taste for refined things.  The problem with your lofty ideals and love interests is that they can often lack grounding and it takes much work to bring your insights and perceptions to manifestation.

Jupiter Contra-Parallel Ascendant

You have an innate ability to get the best out of other people and a deep inner resource which tends to believe in others.  The optimistic part of your approach to life and the lucky self protection that you experience gives you a bright, attractive manner in all problem solving.  Faith in yourself and in life gives you a feeling that you can get what you need and don't have.  This alone improves your life in the long run.

Saturn Contra-Parallel North Node of the Moon

A serious, cautious part of your personality is in leadership when you take on new projects.  The ability to plan carefully and to let common sense evaluation guide you gives you an aura of stability.  Fear is an obstacle to quick progress, but properly integrated, gives your work solid practical grounding. Your friendships have good utilitarian value even if they are a bit stiff with a touch of a formal atmosphere.

     F.  YOUR KARMIC DIRECTION

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

North Node of the Moon in Capricorn

Be responsible, practical, and thorough and your life improves. The key to success is to avoid falling into emotional responses. Avoid situations where others take care of you or where dysfunctional behavior can emerge through old feelings and habits.  Negative enmeshments in others' lives leaves you either burdened or weakened. Avoid emotional dependency.

North Node of the Moon in Capricorn and in the Eighth House

A deep emotional bond with your material possessions can stop you from growing.  Learn to give and develop mature focus to your expression in life.  You need to learn to give by giving.  What you really want in life is to be supported and recognized by others, but this can't happen until you put away childish preoccupations.

                          TABLE OF DEFINITIONS

                               THE  ASPECTS

                  ***Basic classification of aspects***

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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