Introduction
This Spirit Success Report from Halloran Software’s AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter program draws upon 576 paragraphs which interpret the places of the planets at the time of your birth, describing your personal houses, sign placements, and planetary aspects.
These astrological delineations depict your potential and how to make the most of it, or the challenges you will continue to face and how to confront and benefit from them. Though you may change through experience, your inherent characteristics will still motivate how you act and react to circumstances. How you handle yourself is really a clue to your success, and it is up to you to make the “right” choices.
Here are the parts which make up your chart:
HOUSES: Govern sections of your life, e.g., your money, your health, your partners, etc. They are also meaningful as to where your early interests lie and if they are worth pursuing.
SIGNS: Contribute feelings or vibrations to “color” planets, e.g., MERCURY rules GEMINI and VIRGO and emphasizes their qualities of thought, travel, health, and work. JUPITER rules SAGITTARIUS and higher education, spiritual growth, and law.
ASPECTS: Are angles combining the planets in the SIGNS/HOUSES that trigger the manner in which you will be influenced or can handle your qualities to advantage, e.g., MERCURY (thought) TRINE (in good aspect to) JUPITER (education and law) may indicate that you can succeed as a counselor in legal matters.
A “Strength” number precedes each ASPECT interpretation towards the end of the reading. This number synthesizes how exact is the aspect, whether the aspect is major or minor, and whether an aspecting planet is close to one of the four chart angles. The higher the Strength, the more you are likely to feel the aspect and to live it out in your life.
You are most likely to feel and act out the Spirit Success Report’s sign and house placement interpretations when the planets involved are strong in your chart. This is true especially of the outer planets, Jupiter through Pluto. The Astrodynes program, also available from Halloran Software, calculates the respective power and harmony of all the planets in your chart.
Planets in Signs
Sun in Taurus
(Keynote: I OWN)
You have deep material and spiritual concerns and are patient, kind, romantic and firm in your resolves. You are also capable of being stubborn, unyielding, self-indulgent, possessive and jealous. You enjoy tangibles that have weight and intrinsic worth, and display your assets and achievements prominently. Your aesthetic hunger makes you a patron of the arts. You will forgive, but not forget an injustice. A need for security can override your integrity, but you will defend your means to achieve an end because you cannot accept yourself if others find you wanting.
Moon in Taurus
(The Conservative)
Your emotions are stable, giving you a positive outlook and a belief that you are responsible for your own happiness. You are ambitiously-materialistic and like to associate with successful people. You have a good rapport with most women. You probably have a pleasant speaking or singing voice, which you may utilize in a career, but must be careful of infections or tensions which can produce serious throat problems. This is particularly true if you encounter rebuffs, since you tend to be possessive and do not take rejection well. You may express suppressed frustrations on a physical plane.
Mercury in Taurus
(The Dedicated)
You believe in the “golden rule” and extend the benefit of the doubt. You may be slow to anger, but can be physically forceful; will forgive, but never forget an injustice. Your powers of rationalization demand that you take time to prepare ahead for any task you undertake, which may be mistaken for procrastination. If you have a weak point, it is being too set in your ways, but on the plus side, once committed, you can be depended upon to follow through.
Venus in Gemini
(The Inconstant)
Your sense of humor is infectious and your charm undeniable. You are a born traveler and appeal to a wide variety of people with whom you share your multiple talents. Commitment in relationships is as difficult as staying with one job, unless you are the “boss.” Whether formally-educated or not, you have a wealth of knowledge to share and a way of expressing yourself that is entirely captivating. One can almost forgive you for being a “world-class flirt!”
Mars in Gemini
(The Lecturer)
You are a powerful speaker, able to influence others and sway them to your views. As a teacher, you convince students to do things “your way,” though you may change your methods as often as you change your mind. If you scatter your energies, you can fail to complete what you have started and accomplish nothing. Learn early to think before you speak and hone your ability to concentrate. Otherwise, your knowledge may appear superficial and your ideas not worth exploring.
Jupiter in Libra
(The Goddess)
Use your fairy gifts of beauty, charm, and grace wisely. Your artistic talents may bring you a prominent place in the public eye. Partners are all-important. You extend yourself to assure that you are worthy of them. You may fulfill your dearest wish that the world will be a happier place and its citizens find contentment because you have walked among them.
Saturn in Taurus
(The Dejected)
Frugality is against your nature, but you feel a need to “pinch pennies” which can earn you a reputation for being “tight.” You may be unduly concerned over finances and possessions. Love is also a part of the security you crave. Learn to accept losses that everyone experiences from time to time. You should be able to acquire enough material means to alleviate your fears and enjoy the caring relationships essential to your well-being.
Uranus in Libra
(The Bohemian)
You have artistic talent and appreciate modern, as well as traditional forms. You are intelligent, ambitious and determined, but may change your goals too often. Your creative imagination and intuitive gifts blend well. Relationships are trying, as you choose unlikely companions. You make enemies because of unusual ideas, independence and your caustic wit. Once your efforts are channeled, you may attract opportunities that will lead to the success you have dreamed of.
Neptune in Scorpio
(The Initiator)
You take great delight in other people’s secrets and may use them to advantage. If you have information that needs disclosure for the benefit of others, you may expose it in a subtle, but effective way. You may also use your knowledge to promote a principle or public figures while working behind the scenes. A leaning towards self-indulgence needs careful monitoring so that your strength is not used in abusive ways, but as a benefactor who prefers to remain anonymous.
Pluto in Virgo
(The Restorers)
You have a rare opportunity of renovating the world in carefully-structured channels when the environment seems at its lowest ebb. Drugs, disease, addictions and crime will no longer be tolerated. You will have a major part in seeing that justice is done. Law-makers, and those who execute the law will be among your peers, as well as some who are willing to educate those who truly desire self-improvement as their contribution to elevate mankind.
North Node in Pisces
(The Purist)
You have definite ideas of what the world should be like. True comradeship is a rarity because few measure up to your rigid standards. Your search for higher spirit will stimulate compassion for your fellow man and allow for human failure. No one may fulfill another’s karma or judge another’s essence. Your desire should be to try to perfect yourself, inspiring others to do the same by your example.
Planets in Aspect
Moon trine Pluto (Strength: 5.38)
(The Evolvement)
You are not only willing, but anxious to grow and mature. You need to know “why” you have certain feelings and will search for ways to explore them. You may pursue psychology, philosophy or elevate your spirit through intimate encounters with conscious-raising techniques which you can adopt as your own. Once you find your niche, an obsessive nature can limit your development, or you may turn your discoveries to professional skills to share with others.
Venus conjunct Mars (Strength: 4.46)
(The Vivacious)
Your desire for affection is ongoing and you don’t mind being aggressive if you see someone you want as a friend or lover. You express your creativity in dress, look and manner and know how to approach others without seeming “pushy.” You make yourself the center of attention so you will attract those who are impressed with your enthusiasm. Relationships may be over as quickly as they begin, since you crave variety and are always on the lookout for new worlds to conquer.
Sun conjunct Saturn (Strength: 4.03)
(The Restricted)
You have a heavy sense of duty that often limits your own potential. You tend to worry too much about “tomorrow,” even though your practicality and industry spurs you to accumulate necessary, if spartan things of life. You sometimes make circumstances more difficult than they really are and may be accused of lacking a sense of humor. Give yourself credit, not only for what you accomplish but for being a solid citizen that our planet can count on for the stability we need.
Moon opposite Neptune (Strength: 3.61)
(The Oblivious)
You may be so preoccupied with your thoughts that you allow life to pass you by. If plans don’t materialize as you wish, you may devise a solution or an “escape” that has nothing to do with your problems. You may attract those who take advantage, or may practice deceits yourself, so that others cannot trust you. Try for counseling to establish basic values that are practical. You can employ your agile mind in a beneficial manner with the proper guidance.
Sun conjunct Mercury (Strength: 2.58)
(The Conversationalist)
You express your opinions and ideas well, and may preface each sentence with “I”, since your focus is on yourself. If you are promoting your interests commercially, you will get your point across, but should listen to the views of others to enhance your chances of success. You enjoy travel and meeting with people to exchange ideas. You are a natural teacher. If you show a flair for writing, voicing your opinions may be useful and is often the mark of a successful columnist.
Moon inconjunct Jupiter (Strength: 1.28)
(The Unstable)
Your attitude of “more is better” may arise from an emotional need that cannot be satisfied with material things. You may be convinced that there is nothing you cannot do, or others may expect you to accomplish the impossible, but if you fly too high, you may have a long way to fall. Without proper foundations your ambitions as a super-achiever may come to nothing. Recognize your limitations, as well as your capabilities, as you plot your course to success.
Mercury trine Pluto (Strength: 1.06)
(The Novice)
You view yourself as a perpetual student of life, an apprentice who has much to learn, so will attract those who can increase your knowledge. Your interest may include studies of self-enlightenment, such as psychology, psychotherapy or metaphysical sciences. You will concentrate on that to which you feel drawn or “called,” and at which you prove most adept. Eventually, you may share your knowledge, but only when you feel worthy of the universal degree of “Master.”
Venus trine Uranus (Strength: 0.69)
(The Evergreen)
You may make money in unusual ways and attract those who are very different from yourself or have something “new” to offer. Your desire for excitement and change keeps your relationships forever young. There is little danger of possessiveness or jealousy. You may “reward” each other with unusual trinkets that you both enjoy or hold a special meaning for the two of you. If things get dull, you’ll find a way to liven them up and have a variety of friends to help you.
Moon conjunct Mercury (Strength: 0.44)
(The Vacillator)
It is difficult for you to make a lasting decision. You may change your mind suddenly and often after having “second thoughts.” You are apt to act emotionally and are influenced by mood swings rather than logic. At times, you are overwhelmed by inconsequential ideas that have no bearing on problems of the moment. But, you are able to express your feelings readily and can ask for good advice to help you follow through successfully on matters of importance.
Balance of Elements and Modalities
Abundant Earth
You are in touch with the real world. More than others, you know where the rubber meets the road; persistent study has shown you how to make things happen in a practical sort of way. Your nature is well-suited to the adult world of responsibilities, which you master at a young age. Not impulsive with your resources, you would only start a business after careful study, but you would manage it well. You enjoy the satisfaction that comes not just from starting projects, but from finishing them. Your steady, organized approach is actually more productive in the long-run than is that of the quick, flashy types. You know how to establish a pace and keep it.
Do not let your awareness of the material world make you unappreciative of the spiritual plane that underpins our life here — to which others may be more sensitive than you. Practicality is fine, but try to understand that dreams, feelings, and enthusiasms are also important and should not be squelched. Others might surprise you with what their optimistic risk-taking is able to achieve. You can be so cautious and reserved that some people find you conservative and dull. If you yourself become bored or depressed, admit that security isn’t everything and try to be more spontaneous. Open up to the new and follow your bliss (in a careful sort of way).
Lack of Fire
You are willing to let flashier individuals take center-stage and lead the way. You are probably unenthusiastic about change and are passive when it comes to creating change through leadership. You may be aggressive in a defensive way, but lack the self-confidence to take the offensive. Lacking the impulsiveness of Fire, you are more likely to be a careful worker and a reliable mate, though you could stand to be less detached and more personally involved with your spouse and family.
A lack of planets in Fire signs can be offset by a Fire sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Life.
Lack of Water
For you the world of feelings may be terra incognita. Close interpersonal relations, which require the expression of feelings, and empathy for others’ feelings, do not come naturally or easily for you. You have difficulty putting yourself in someone else’s shoes in order to feel what they feel. You will learn how to deal with life in a tough, mental sort of way. People looking for someone to empathize with them should not come to you. Those people who are comfortable with you are not looking for emotional closeness. It’s not that you don’t have emotions and feelings, but they do not come out easily in your relationships. If you are an artist, they may come out in your art. You probably take refuge from the difficulty of forming emotional connections by concentrating on intellectual, practical, or inspired activity. Your best companions would be those who are able to inhabit these realms with you, but who are also in touch with their feelings. They can help you to contact your own feelings and teach you to respect and honor other people’s feelings.
A lack of planets in Water signs can be offset by a Water sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Endings.
Abundant Fixed
With an abundance of planets in Fixed signs, you have the staying power to complete a project, grow a family, or expand a business. Your strength is what friends notice most about you. You have definite values; you focus your affections on the people and things that are part of your team. Friendships formed over time are important to you. You may be found at the center of a circle of friends, a large family, a government agency, or a business. You understand the contribution that stability and security make to prosperity and growth. It throws you off-balance when friends are not as reliable as you are or when love and ideals are not part of your life. Concentrate on developing confidence in yourself, a wholesome world for your family or group, and binding others to you with love. If you have a weakness, it is trouble changing or listening when people tell you a better way to do things. You can handle this weakness by empowering your team, as among them will be individuals who are good at reacting to a constantly changing world.
Lack of Cardinal
With a lack of planets in Cardinal signs, you may have trouble starting things. You may be timid about developing and carrying out plans. You would prefer to let others break the first ground of a new venture, so that you can pitch in and help once the outlines of the venture are clear. You probably lack confidence in your mastery of the real world and survival in it. You may substitute a rich inner life for your lack of action in the outer world. In its highest form, you may be unusually creative or spiritually committed. Ideas filter up as you focus on ‘being’ instead of ‘doing’. Watch out for the lower manifestations, which are delegating tasks to others and pitying yourself over the lot that befalls you in life as a result of your lack of direction and initiative. Your different perspective on life gives you valuable insights that let you make real contributions wherever you are.
A lack of planets in the Cardinal signs can be offset by a Cardinal sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the Angular houses.
