SECTION I.  The Structure and Intent of Your Life.

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

     A.  Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis

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

          1. Hemisphere

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

Most Planets Above the Horizon

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

Most Planets Setting

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

          2. Quadrant

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

Most Planets in the Third Quadrant

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

     B.  Elements and Modes

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

          1. Elements

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

Fire

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

Earth

You have no earth in your chart.  This means that the material world and its difficulties are not much of a focus for you.  The resources in your life come and go without giving you a great deal of concern.  You can always locate money or its equivalent when you are truly interested.

Air

Uranus is your only air planet.  This gives 10% of your chart to this element.  You grasp the big picture suddenly.  Sustaining your higher vision requires you to implement some crossover techniques.  Detachment is necessary but unfortunately it only occurs intermittently.  To deal with this, you develop unique and intensely personal rhythms in order to accomplish everyday tasks. This can be a stumbling block for you as you alternately try to ignore the reasoning process altogether, then embrace it obsessively.  You work harder than most people at being "in tune" with others.

Water

You have an abundance of water in your chart.  You are very emotional and quite empathetic.  You feel others' pain so deeply, you can be moved off the path from your own goals unless you develop a strong sense of self-definition so as to separate out your own needs from those of others.  You need something to do in life that gives full ventilation to your feelings.  Your sentimental and emotionally potent approach to life polarizes people who will either appreciate you for this trait or be repulsed because of it.  You tend to separate people, in your mind, into those that belong and those that don't.  You find any habit, good or bad, very difficult to change.

          2. Modes

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

Cardinal

You have 20% of your chart in the cardinal mode showing that you are capable of both leading and following.  You know how to assert your point of view or execute someone else's.  Your preference is to follow someone else's lead and embark on your own path only when you feel it is necessary.

Fixed

A tremendous amount of your chart is in the fixed mode.  You have endurance.  Whether a course of action is good or bad you are more likely to stay with it than change.   The principle of inertia is with you.  When you rest, you have real difficulty getting going.  When you are in motion,  you have real difficulty stopping or even changing directions (even  slightly).  People find you a loyal friend and a tenacious enemy.

Mutable

You have 20% of your chart in the mutable mode. Your natural preference is to act or stay put when a circumstance of significance arises in your life.  When important ingredients in your life are beyond your control you are capable of making deep and meaningful adjustments even though this is not your first choice.

     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.

                              ARIES RISING

You have a very direct manner for dealing with others.  You wish people would be able deal with you in a very direct way.  Others come into your life in very diplomatic ways because you are so direct that it is hard for you to connect with others who are not prepared to do it all your way.  You have abundant energy and accomplish much by acting on impulse.  You throw yourself into activity but don't always have the patience or energy to finish your projects.  Your natural environment is one where the work is completed swiftly.  You like to move on to the new and pioneering side of a project and seldom are interested in sitting still for the rewards.  You gain pleasure through movement: physical, emotional and mental.  People are attracted to your spark of enthusiasm and your genuine and direct mannerisms.  Relationships tend to stay simple with you because none are at loss to discover where they stand with you.

Moon Square the Ascendant

You express your feelings in a way that can lead to misunderstandings and arguments.  Some of the misunderstanding comes from communication difficulties and some of it comes from being at odds with others emotionally.  Your personal life can improve when you make allowances for emotional differences between people in your community of family, friends, and lovers. You make your mark on the public consciousness, but your conflict between what you are doing and what you think you are doing stops this from being consistently positive.  You have conflicting needs.  In order to move forward, you must be free to act, unencumbered by other people's judgments. You need to be connected to the thinking of those around you in order to see accurately where you are going.  This conflict is real but resolvable through emotional balance and practice.  Worry less about whether or not others understand your intentions.  Don't let difficulties in your daily routines stop you from completing your obligations.

Mercury Trine the Ascendant

You seem to know just what to say to get your message across to others. You find yourself traveling in order to gain more knowledge.  The highway of life for you is interesting and communicating your findings to others is part of the excitement. Intellectual expression in some form is necessary for you to keep learning and you are motivated to keep some form of mental improvement going in your life.

Mars Square the Ascendant

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

Neptune Trine the Ascendant

You are very good at knowing how to get along with others.  You intentionally change what you are doing in order to get along with others, but also because you have a need to express your creative qualities that will find some expression.  This chameleonic quality is so helpful in getting along with people under changing circumstances that you will either work for higher human values though service or art.  The spiritual path in some form or expression will always be out in front of you as a guiding light toward your ideal.

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.

                           CAPRICORN MIDHEAVEN

You wish for career to be an area carefully limited to its proper domain in life without it intruding on your personal life or other relationships.  You strive for integrity and a sense of personal responsibility and social worth.

Moon Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You inspire others through your emotions and by the great diversity of interests that you engage in.  You have the ability to explore the alternate points of view and reduce your ideals to the lowest common denominator so that others understand them easily.  You have success in life by combining your emotions and your thought processes.

Mars Separating Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You are very assertive and competitive.  You love the challenges of life and enjoy the opportunity to prove yourself.  You are happiest in a career where you can draw your own conclusions and make your own decisions.  You like the freedom to be able to instantly put your insights into action.

Saturn Trine Midheaven

You prefer to do things the tried and true way.  You have a conservative streak in you that will carry you to a position of trust, respect and authority.  Your consistency, reliability and conscientiousness puts you in a position of responsibility.  You have good management skills.

Pluto Applying Opposition to Midheaven and unafflicted.

Vague fears and deep emotional blocks can stop you from coming into your own early in life.  You grow as the deeper fears are transformed into positive and balanced insights about life.  You have a wellspring of inner strength and can stand up to a good deal more than most people.  Your extremes in mood or thought may be difficult for others to accommodate.  Help them by doing some processing of your social interactions each day.

     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 Venus

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and V. VENUS - Your love nature, 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.

Moon Conjunct Mars

Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life, and VI. MARS -Your energy, as a single unit.  This Conjunction colors your unconscious habits and your basic attitude toward life. This is an extremely important ingredient of your identity and represents a primary attribute of your personality.

Jupiter Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections VII. JUPITER - Your values, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as one unit.  This combination of energies becomes the foundation of your approaches to all life, effecting your values ethics and motivations.  This Conjunction represents a pivotal focus in your life.

SECTION II.  The SUN - Your Ego Structure

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

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

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

SUN IN SCORPIO

Control is the main ingredient in life for you.  You are strong-willed, thorough, passionate and powerful.  You are courageous and completely willing to go it alone when necessary.  You tend to have a rather serious outlook on life, always probing, looking for the depths.  Your life becomes more meaningful when you learn to be truly forgiving, when you control your sexual nature without repressing it.  Strive to overcome envy, jealousy and possessiveness.  Your intense, all or nothing attitude is very useful under some circumstances but all of life is not a battlefield.  You turn that force to a high channel at some time in life and the search for meaning becomes a spiritual quest.

Sun in 8th house

You tend to be withdrawn and secretive.  Because of your interest in activity behind the scenes you may find your natural place in life working on something which requires large amounts of time alone.  Your self-picture moves in extremes from blunt and dull to layer upon layer of infinitely rich textures.

Sun in 8th house Unafflicted

Brick by brick, you build success.  It's slow but it does come. You filter all experience and compare one item to another, selecting one at a time, that which works best.  You prefer an attitude of doing more with less.  A lot goes on in your soul that most people never see.  You are hard to get close to, but others are always rewarded for their effort to get to know you.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

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

SUN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MOON

Being self-reliant is more important for you than for most people. Only with great effort and some difficulty do you manage to communicate your aims and intentions to others. Doing projects on your own is not only easiest, it is often your mechanism for learning compromise and coming to terms with your own inner conflicts.  In groups, your own conflicts sometimes get projected onto others.

SUN CONJUNCT VENUS

You have a magnetic charm to which people are naturally attracted. People like you.  Your inner knowledge of people aids greatly in getting along with others.  Because you have a second sense for what to say to people, you need to guard against mere people-pleasing, which can reduce your diplomatic skills to some form of self-seeking manipulation.  You are aesthetic and have a certain inclination toward all that is beautiful.  You were thought of as a cute child; if your interests in self refinement are cultivated in your adult years, you become a truly beautiful person.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You are energetic and brave but sometimes too impulsive or rash. You hurt yourself and others at times through outbursts of temper.  You can back a losing cause at times, throwing good energy after bad.  You do this because you view your goals through a desire-incrusted lens which distorts your vision or because you mis-evaluate your own power, or both.  You can guard against this tendency by learning to draw conclusions from all of life rather than just your own immediate wants. You are naturally powerful but need to guard against the tendency to run over others.

SUN SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MARS

Little things going wrong or opposing you ignite great resources of energy into motion.  You can get angry in a flash.  You can make your own life miserable and narrow, getting even with people, bureaucracies, or material objects.  Excitement carries you far.  Anger wastes your energy and prohibits your progress. Only real understanding can keep your energy focused productively.

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 HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

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

SUN SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Idealistic and hypnotic, you dissolve the world around you.  Your sense of self and the world is without boundaries.  Definition is difficult for you because of this.  You can lighten up and inspire others, but, lead them down the "primrose Path" until you know where you are going. Once your own direction is clarified (no easy task) you can help others.  You are compassionate but have confusion as to an appropriate manner of expression.  Until you gain self-definition helping others is always fraught with danger .

SECTION III.  The MOON - Your Personal Life.

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

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

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

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

MOON IN SAGITTARIUS

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

Moon in 9th house

You gain emotional stability by bringing about external changes. You have a strong imagination so you are on a continuous quest to better your perspective and perceptions.  A certain underlying restlessness and love of adventure can bring about periods of travel.  Voyages can be particularly pleasant for you.

Moon in 9th house Unafflicted

Your basic wholesomeness and sincerity gives you an open mind and a good grasp of other people's situations.  Your mind and opinions will change in fundamental ways with the unfolding of emotional experiences all through life.

MOON IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

MOON CONJUNCT MARS

At best you are courageous and powerful.  You need to be careful that your excessive emotional patterns don't run away with you. You act rashly and cause difficulty for yourself and others.  Try to direct your energy into constructive channels.  Avoid eating when upset and get physical exercise; it will give you emotional release.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR  SATURN

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

MOON TRINE YOUR SATURN

You do what seems right to you regardless of what others think. But what others think gets factored into your overall reality assessment which in turn determines what you do.  You are accomplished, dutiful and disciplined in your daily habits.  This leads to self-sacrifice without any great fanfare.  You are talented but self-satisfied and content which keeps you aiming at the center of the road.  This conservatism protects you from extremes of action so you may not accomplish much but you are always sufficiently productive to get rewarded for your efforts.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You are a good idea person.  You are highly emotional and intuitive. New thoughts and methods come to you in flashes.  Make it a practice to write new ideas down as they occur.  Your ability to explain your thoughts to others, once initially shaped in written form, can find further refinement through discussion if you are a careful listener. You are seldom satisfied unless you are making changes and the more innovative, the better.

MOON SEXTILE YOUR URANUS

You act on unique and experimental thoughts.  You are humanitarian and freedom oriented in the way you explore life. You have a knack for improving your surroundings.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You easily get so emotionally "locked up" that it becomes difficult to alter or arrest a pattern once it has begun.  You can suffer a lot by cutting yourself off from others.  You may end a relationship that you desperately want if you feel the other person may reject you or abandon you sometime in the future.  You demand a loyalty from others that isn't only unrealistic, but is also something you are incapable of or unwilling to give to others yourself.  Further, you are capable of forming compulsive attachments where you hang onto a relationship long after the other person has left you emotionally or even physically.  In either of these cases, clearly you have to come to terms with the issue of power and control.  Don't be afraid of not being in control. Achieve self-control, understand your own emotions and your life becomes much easier.  You might explore your relationship with your mother as it had a much deeper effect on you than for most people.  You have ability to work with large figures and with money and finance. You are able to conceptualize many different items of experience simultaneously.  If your emotions don't get in your way, you become a leader in some realm.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR PLUTO

Emotional standoffs block your growth.  Rational compromise stops addictive and self-defeating behavior.  It takes tremendous self insight to see that the things that bother you most about others are qualities of your own being.  Real change in your emotional nature is not only possible but inevitable.  Don't ever lose hope or indulge in thoughts of failure or guilt.  Real release of old emotional habits brings instant transformation.

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 SCORPIO

Your mind is penetrating and critical.  Avoid being too secretive and you will learn more.  Your manner of expression is diplomatic but doesn't truly reflect the peevish probing that is always going on.  You are a shrewd negotiator who expresses even controversial ideas in a rather positive manner.  Your ideas are predetermined but you are smart enough to know that people don't usually respond favorably to you if they suspect this.  You are in your own depths and keep your own counsel.  Your life is smoother when you learn to relax, enjoy life, and adjust to changes going on around you.

Mercury in 8th house

You have a natural love of research.  You like to dig deep into experience.  You stay curious and have a tendency for searching out the roots of an issue and discovering people's motivations.

Mercury in 8th house Afflicted

You can easily become frustrated with your personal life and end up retreating into some pattern of escape, avoidance and compulsion. Strive for balance and perspective, intellectually and emotionally.

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 HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

At a core level you don't think well enough about yourself. It may appear that you do on the surface, but the truth of the matter is your pessimism and complaining comes from a fear that life will not give you what you want.  Learn to work smarter and not just harder.  You see the virtue in discipline and often force yourself to do things you feel are good for you.  In turn, you may resent others that don't work as hard.  It is more difficult for you to get where you are going because you are always having to compromise between what you would like to do and what you feel is required.  This conflict between desires and feelings of obligation is often the source of worry, stress, and wasted energy.  For all this, you excel in any area that requires close, careful judgment.

MERCURY SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Mental laziness is your enemy.  Your natural conservative "mind set" can take you along a path of success, but artificial worries and disagreements with authority can slow you down.  Root out any negative attitude and do away with vindictiveness and your life is easy.  Break big projects up into little pieces and be disciplined; then, your mind will take you far.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You get great ideas, even brilliant at times.  Still, others don't always hear what you are saying and this makes you angry or standoffish.  Whenever this happens, recognize that you need to be thorough and practical or else the world will not see what you have found so interesting. This is not the world's fault.  Slow yourself down long enough to learn how everyone else does things and you will find a natural channel for getting your ideas across. Remember, a good idea is only a good idea until it is put into practice.  Get physical exercise and you might find your nervousness much easier to control.

MERCURY SQUARE YOUR URANUS

You are an original thinker but you find yourself creating rebellion and moving to the left of even your own co-thinkers. Spontaneous internal combustion in your mental life keeps you moving toward freedom, without getting closure.  Your nervous and iconoclastic attitude makes you difficult to get along with. Practice listening to others without devaluing them in your mind and you will overcome your natural mental self indulgence.

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 SCORPIO

You have a love of physical pleasure.  You are passionate and have an aura of secrecy about you.  You like nice things and will alternately approach them and avoid them. You lack moderation and tact.  You consequently go from being overly sensitive to others to being shut off.  You are proud and extravagant, then very ascetic.  Harmony comes to you only through stabilizing and overcoming your desires.  This comes slowly by comprehensive reexamination of past experiences.

Venus in 7th house

You place a lot of time and energy into relationships.  You have a good sense for what others want and need.  You have a strong need to please others and wish them to like you.  This in itself can be an aid in negotiations and in all of your dealings with people.

Venus in 7th house Unafflicted

You experience much happiness through marriage.  You have the ability to compromise and you attract a partner who is so inclined.  Your natural instinct is to reach out to others, attempting to incorporate into your own life what you see in them as good.

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You are prone to emotional and financial excess.  Your beliefs and values are at odds with your desires and it takes a lot of energy to integrate the two.  You may become very interested in the baser, more physical side of romance.  This is because you instinctively look for a common denominator between desires and values.  The way out of this dilemma is to work at helping others and avoid putting energy into the selfish side of your drives.

VENUS SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MARS

Frustrations occur as you pursue your aims, going toward acquisition without correct forethought.  Getting your timing right takes a bit of concentration and experimentation.  Attempts to express your emotions leave you feeling that you always have more inside of you than you are able to get out.  Control of your impulses without any self repression brings understanding and personal development.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You believe in yourself and in people.  Your life tends to improve as you go along.  You have a habit of knowing how to get one positive side of life pulling together with another positive quality.  You acquire money and position as if it was natural to you.  You are good at blending people and attributes of people together to get the most for the effort.  Luck in life is a direct result of your optimism.  Your life betters materially through marriage.

VENUS TRINE YOUR JUPITER

You are genuinely lucky and have a way with women who are lucky for you.  You have long range vision and planning which carries you far. You understand the principle of momentum and know how to get positive linkage working in all of your projects.  You are the master of rolling over accumulated wealth, talent, and energy.  The beautiful things of life come to you and you are big on personal enjoyment.  Occasionally, overindulgence will wear you down.  However, even when you make a bad mistake, you are cushioned against great harm.  Others respond to your charm.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are easily led by your feelings.  You are an idealist and a sensitive soul that is having a tough time getting your values to manifest.  People take advantage of you at times because you empathize with others' pain.  You have artistic talent but this is not meant to be a life as an artist.  Consequently, you will have difficulties in youth getting reinforced for your aesthetic efforts.  Later in life you will be a patron of the arts.  Your artistic sentiments will come out and into full bloom in the realm of people.  It takes you a long time to discover who is reliable and who isn't because you would rather believe in the inherent goodness of each person.  You somehow expect that every person will have the same value system and perspective as you.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

You get fooled by others easily as you are naive and a dreamer. Although you wish the best of yourself and of life, you get off on the wrong foot at the practical level.  You have artistic talent but it doesn't develop along expressive lines.  First, your artistic inclinations direct you toward understanding people.  When you are successful here your underlying self expression finds some aesthetic manifestation.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are powerful and magnetic.  You have a magic charm for dealing with people.  You have a universal love for people that is non-sectarian and non-judgmental.  You are sustained by material abundance that comes from others at some time in this life and may have a sizable inheritance. When you get involved with a project you can really pour yourself into it with seemingly limitless energy.  This energy evaporates when you aren't involved in a project of personal importance.

VENUS TRINE YOUR PLUTO

You have a way of hanging on to what is important in your life and getting rid of everything else.  Your love is powerful but very specific.  You have strong likes and dislikes and are very good at emotional discernment.

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 SAGITTARIUS

You desire independence.  You are impulsive and optimistic and know how to turn every circumstance into some opportunity to further your cause.  Your methods for going after what you want is to work hard periodically but your energy, while strong, is intermittent.  You are a natural gambler and adventurer and take a sporting attitude toward difficult circumstances.  Although you are argumentative at times, others admire the fact that you aspire to higher things in life.  If you choose goals that are too distant, you run out of energy trying to get to them and fall back into wasting time wallowing in a defensive self-righteousness.  Strive for consistency and stability.  Any goal is obtainable, even independence, if you are willing to keep going towards it.

Mars in 9th house

Your energetic mind and fiercely competitive nature can be a powerful symbol of the free spirit.  You have a love of change and personal initiative.  You have good promotional instincts.

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You know how to get to your goals in life by steady, patient, and persistent progress.  You have good, practical overviews of the final result of your efforts.  You are good at planning a strategy and sticking to it.  You build your projects and your life with bedrock security in mind, with as little risk as possible.  Discipline, patience, hard work, and the blessing of good judgment work together to form a picture that looks like "luck" to others.

MARS TRINE YOUR SATURN

You are an excellent judge of your limits and create much goodness for yourself by appreciation for what is appropriate socially and for what is permanent in life.  You express yourself in a way that helps your long term projects manifest.

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You have good mechanical skill and interest in finding new and unique ways of accomplishing your goals.  You are impatient with the way things are and strive for instantaneous change.  Your inventiveness makes you a good troubleshooter as well as skills at streamlining a process.  You love finding the quick path through a project and are willing to take the initiative in life. Remember, less hearty souls don't travel as fast as you nor do they have your love of speed.

MARS SEXTILE YOUR URANUS

Quick release of energy finds you leapfrogging to success.  You are good at skipping intermediate steps and getting to the goal with the greatest economy of effort.

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 SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR NEPTUNE

Flashes of insight and inspiration fly from you as you move through life.  You are a person in motion, making lots of adjustments for your vision of what is possible.  When you are most creative you are often inadvertently self isolating.  This happens because your ideals are at odds with most everyone else's conscious aspirations.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

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

MARS OPPOSITION YOUR PLUTO

You experience frustrations in accomplishing your goals.  It seems that circumstance as well as other people conspire against you at critical moments.  You are on a path of growth as soon as you give up your desire to force other people to be different than they are.  As soon as you surrender your desire to control anyone else you weaken everyone else's control over you.  You have massive amounts of energy but it is hard for you to use it consistently and constructively.

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 CANCER

You believe that you have the finer things in life coming and you are good at attracting security because you expect it.  Others appraise you as quite lucky with the material world and its concerns.  There is a reason for this.  You value traditional things.  At an instinctive, basic level you gravitate naturally to the techniques and procedures that have worked in the past. They work again, and for you.  Because you are emotionally "plugged in" to the things that have worked in the past you seem to be successful and conservative.  Your interest in, and acknowledgment of, traditional values is unconsciously recognized by others.  Friends, family and society help you find your niche in life.  Others benefit from your success and you are quite generous when you feel in empathy with others' struggles to meet the basic demands of life.  Although you are sentimental, you can be exceedingly practical.  You have a colorful imagination that focuses on and admires the past circumstances of both your personal family and community.  These perceptions, expectations and value judgments set the stage for the development of your ethical perspective.  Business ventures are evaluated based on their ability to improve all life in the long run.  If a business direction feels right and looks honorable it will appeal to you because, under these circumstances you believe it will work.  You look for opportunity to come in ways that increase your emotional and material security.  You have a natural attraction to food and domestic experiences.

Jupiter in 4th house

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

Jupiter in 4th house Unafflicted

You have the wonderful talent of feeling at home with your place in life.  Wherever you go you tend to feel that you belong.  A wholesome sense of well-being accompanies you because you have implicitly accepted that only good will ultimately come from all that you do.  You have an abiding faith in "the big picture". You expect your life to improve and it does.

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 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 CONJUNCT PLUTO

You paint an exceedingly big picture of yourself.  You see yourself as a power broker, as someone to be reckoned with.  You have the drive and the talent to achieve such a position in life. You have real leadership qualities but you will need almost unlimited patience to achieve your goal.  Further, you will need a deep self reevaluation and cleansing in order to hold on to power once achieved.  You have the special quality of needing and getting on the job training.  You wish to grow into a bigger person and this requires inner growth that you must supply.  The world will supply the vehicles of outer growth. You are lucky in material things and a certain amount of worldly success comes to you.

SECTION VIII.  SATURN - Your Obligations.

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

SATURN IN LEO

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

Saturn in 6th house

You are an incredibly conscientious worker.  You are hard-working and exacting.  You need to fight off any ill health as soon as it arrives as it is apt to be chronic.  Good health is easy to maintain when you put good habits into place.  They tend to be self-perpetuating.

Saturn in 6th house Unafflicted

You receive very reliable help.  As your competence increases in an area of work, so does your support.  You are successful in life by paying attention to routine details and by being patient. Progress comes incrementally as you slowly build one win upon another.

SATURN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

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

SATURN OPPOSITION YOUR URANUS

You have great trouble expressing your true perceptions as you tend to vacillate between an erratic casualness toward your obligations and a willfully dictatorial attitude.  Others find you difficult to approach if they disagree with you.  You suffer from feelings of isolation. Your deep inner fears of inadequacy have to be met and overcome if you are to be able to achieve your objectives in life.

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 AQUARIUS

You are able to express your ideals and uniquenesses best when you are having to rise to the challenge.  You are very willful but a real humanitarian.  This is because you conceive of your life as having significance through how it connects with all of life.  At its best your life is for the good of everyone; at its worst this means that you assume that what ever you want is good for everyone else.

Uranus in 11th house

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

Uranus in 11th house Unafflicted

You are more than just an inspiration to others.  You are not a "grandstander" but intentionally pull originality out of others; consequently, you are supported and utilized rather than just admired from afar.

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 PLUTO

You provoke violent responses in others.  There is a fanatical side to your idealism and you are often involved in revolutionary projects that seem simply destructive for no good reason.  You see yourself as some kind of intellectual pioneer but you don't help the world much until you recognize that ends and means are the same.  Violence begets violence and love breeds love.  The ends you achieve in life are the exact by-product of the means used for getting to them.  Good and humanitarian ideas can only be of real help in life when they are implemented with love and respect for life.

URANUS SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR PLUTO

You seem to get into a pattern of change that is way over your head. There is nothing you can do to stop the change or even slow it down. But, you can relax and enjoy the journey without pushing or pulling.

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 LEO

You see societal change coming through people being inspired. You may have an inflated ego or a desire for power but your ideal is to be something important for others.

Neptune in 5th house

You have a taste for beautiful, cultural things.  You wish to create something of beauty during your life.  You have artistic and dramatic ability which surfaces during all of your day-to-day activities.  You have lots of fantasy in your love life.  You may adopt children or your marriage partner may have them already when you meet.

Neptune in 5th house Afflicted

You have inflated expectations.  Things don't work out as you would want them to.  At these moments, you are apt to turn to external stimulants for energy or escape.  The pleasure and luxury-loving side of your personality becomes entwined in this process.  Avoid comparing your achievements against others or an abstract standard.  Be patient and build slowly toward your ideal.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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 CANCER

At your best, you are instinctively drawn to some deep new social awareness; this can give you a foundation for genuine transformation and creativity.  You are tenacious.  At your worst, you trade freedom and self-worth for security.  You may have a gnawing fear of some physical deprivation which can haunt you and block real change. Understanding your past can root out barriers and allow you to move into deep transformation.

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 THE MOON

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 TRINE.

You like to do things in a big way.  You are optimistic and expect to win.  Your positive attitude and general long range view in life gives you the best possible chance to make something good come from your various talents.  Even setbacks look like an opportunity to grow.  Your ability to avoid difficulty seems like luck to others while it is a natural and obvious skill to you. Your keyword is Enthusiasm.

YOU HAVE NO PLANETARY QUINCUNXES.

You have a serious and accurate manner for approaching changes in life. You see the possible and basically push to make more of what has happened in the past happen again.  You have a natural talent for building on past experience.

     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.

Venus in the Seventh House.

Your natural love for others brings out an inner joy. Relationships are a constant source of self-expression and excitement.  You have a deep inner conviction in others.

Jupiter in Cancer.

You know how to feel at home under many varied circumstances. You have the ability to grow emotionally through almost every experience.  Your instincts are right on target, as to how people are connected with each other and circumstances will work out.

Jupiter in the Fourth House.

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

Uranus in Aquarius.

You have a fountain of new ideas and interesting insights.  To harness these ideas you may have to work, but they are always at your disposal regardless.

Uranus in the Eleventh House.

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

     C.  YOUR MOST PERSISTENT DIFFICULTIES.

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

Afflicted Mercury

You suffer because you draw the wrong conclusions from your perceptions.  There are several ways of breaking out of a negative picture.  You can ask other people's advice as to your present course of action in life, you can strive to be more empirical in your observations, and you can look for a consistent pattern in your past actions.  Through expanding your perceptions, you can break out of a self-limiting mental bubble.

Afflicted Neptune

You seem at odds with the culture you are in.  You are idealistic but your ideals are unsympathetic to the social direction of the moment. You can be a visionary and a real helper to the world but you must harness your values in a positive and realistic way in order to be of use to the world or even to enjoy your personal life.  Your prospects in life improve when you are able to direct your ideals and values inwardly toward your own life in a joyful and practical way.  You will affect the world positively when you effectively change your own life.

Venus in Scorpio

Your love nature is so intense that you easily scare away those you would attract.  You love and hate with such extreme that you only find peace through a higher communion of the spirit. Practice altering your vibration so as to escape self victimization through petty attractions.

Saturn in Leo

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

     D.  THE GROWTH ASPECTS

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

Moon in Growth Aspect to Mercury

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

Moon Semi-Sextile Mercury

You learn the hard way that others don't always understand what you say.  Your expressions do suffer because the analogies you make and references you use are often so personal that others aren't privy to your point of view.  As you learn to think about other people's point of reference as you speak, you simultaneously learn to examine and clarify your own feelings and responses to life.  This process creates a path of self-knowledge.

Mercury in Growth Aspect to Mars

You work very hard in learning to adequately express your desire. The process starts by recognizing that you have urges and feelings that don't emerge very directly.  You come to understand your drives and urges more clearly, as you learn to express your desires.  There is a transformative process here.  Through knowledge, your desires change into something more satisfying for you.

Mercury Semi-Sextile Mars

Your frustration comes out in conversation and communication in general.  Still, you have difficulty in correctly identifying your inner conflicts.  Getting your life to be to your liking requires looking at your habits closely to see how you perpetuate your frustration.  Changing your life situation requires careful attention to the habits that you have that perpetuate your inner stress.

Neptune in Growth aspect to Pluto

You have an opportunity to use the inspirational side of your nature in a positive and powerful way to be a force for change in the social order.  If you move in this direction, most of what you aim at will not manifest  for a very long time, but, you will benefit directly and immediately in your personal life.  As you become more socially involved, aspects of your own personal difficulties will drop away. Social involvement can become a mirror in which you see many of your own shortcomings multiplied and expanded exponentially.  This interaction with others can become a way of working on yourself.

Neptune Semi-Sextile Pluto

You have a possible avenue of working on yourself by working with the larger social system.  The key here is to be open to changing your pace and level of involvement with the social system fairly frequently.  Any extended and unrelenting fight for a cause prohibits this very socially conscious aspect of your nature from being pliable or adjustable enough to be useful for personal growth.  But, translating your highest regard for other people into some form of systematic and institutional change (with some intermittent alterations) does bring transformations both socially and personally.

     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.

Moon Parallel Mercury

The mode of your communication is emotional.  You have a mind that can easily absorb the basic messages from the environment and give out the feeling of being generally interested in everything.  You have the ability to convey some aspect of your personality with every bit of information you release.

Moon Parallel North Node of the Moon

You quite naturally connect with a deep quality in other people's emotional nature.  When you are at your best, you have the capacity to put other people at ease.  You develop the most progressive aspects of your nature through the manner that you deal with family issues.

Venus Parallel Uranus

Your vision of beauty and perfection can have you in a whirl over how and who to relate to.  Relationships represent freedom to you and this can mean that you get involved spontaneously and briefly.  The abrupt side of your nature disguises the willfulness that can give you a certain stubbornness.

Moon Contra-Parallel Jupiter

You have an underlying feeling that success is eminent and your expectation of good things in life is responsible for creating the best that there is to be had in any situation.  Over-extension can stop you from getting to your primary goals so you periodically need focus.  Travel and wealth may be your lot in life primarily because you expect it.

Venus Contra-Parallel Saturn

Your desire to prohibit rejection can cut you off from the deeper aspects of relationships.  You have the ability for stability and loyalty, but a feeling of depression and a gloomy outlook can rob your life of joy.  Staying focused on something positive to do with your energy and staying in motion allows you to put your best foot forward.

Jupiter Contra-Parallel North Node of the Moon

You have a knack for taking chances and a deep confidence in yourself. Progress is made when you are able to assert yourself without over playing your hand.  Circumstances can pass you by when you see your moral judgments opposing the practicality of a situation.  Generally, you have the good luck to bypass this road block through the enthusiasm that develops around you.

Jupiter Contra-Parallel Midheaven

You have a natural instinct for getting ahead in life by relying on the help that comes to you.  There is a natural wholesomeness at the core of your being that directs you.  Having a positive vision of the world and an optimistic picture of what you can do is part of your nature.

Saturn Contra-Parallel Uranus

You possess inner strength which at its worst can be stubborn and cruel.  At its best this aspect gives you great determination. You struggle internally between the gentle and the rigid side of your nature.  In the long run you are capable of expressing a great humanitarian concern for your fellow beings.

     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 Sagittarius

Learning to take a stand on your own perception and innate judgment improves circumstances and processes in your life. Listening to others' judgments can be a mechanism for developing a larger and more positive vision of what is possible.  This is your path of development and accomplishment.  Be willing to take a stand on your higher values regardless of consequences.  You have a habit of ascribing a point of view to circumstances.  This is a past life pattern that has allowed you to escape responsibility, and now keeps you from getting no more than superficially involved with any project.  Develop an unrelentingly positive point of view and them adhere to it.  From this, both a moral conscience and a maturity  emerges.

North Node of the Moon in Sagittarius and in the Ninth House

Lifetimes of "doing" have led you to this life where freedom can be obtained but only by being truthful to your own higher perception of the truth.  You easily switch from one point of view to another depending on your motive of the moment.  Only an overriding allegiance to some universal principle helps you make sense of the happenings in this life.
