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 Aries
(Keynote: I AM)
You are self-sufficient, self-motivated, and self-confident, but can be self-centered and self-destructive. There is little that can deter you from your goals. Your numerous friends are supportive and follow your lead. But, you will make dangerous enemies if you are arrogant, conceited or selfish. Then, you may reach your zenith but will have great difficulty in holding your position. For all your self-reliance, partners are important to you. Take others into your consideration or you will find your “top of the heap” as lonely and unfulfilling as you, yourself, have made it.
Moon in Scorpio
(The Warrior)
Your ability to attract is so powerful that you can bring about almost anything you wish — and some things that you would rather evade. Your emotions are intense and close to the surface. You project them into your manner, and when you speak it is usually with authority so that others are compelled to listen. You are self-reliant and would rather fight your battles alone with the confidence you will emerge as victor. You are as determined in love as you are in conflicts, but few understand the intensity of your dominant nature or have a desire to endure your possessiveness.
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 Aries
(The Wire-walker)
You are an extremist who is sweetly disposed or aggressively angry in unpredictable turns. If you decide to be a pianist, you will devote hours and months to study and practice; then trade it in on a clarinet. Look for a balance that will keep you from impulsively falling in love, marrying, divorcing, and marrying again. You are a handful of dynamite in an appealing package. Only in moderation can you find the stability you need for the happiness you deserve.
Mars in Pisces
(The Indeterminate)
You put much of your energy into working for social reforms or human rights. While you are unusually focused in your endeavors, you give little thought to personal needs. You will do better for others if your life is in balance. Ambivalence, indecision, procrastination and duality create conflicts that need revision and structure. Acknowledge your value and allow yourself freedom to grow as a reward for the charity you so generously extend to others.
Jupiter in Gemini
(The Ambivalent)
You have the highest ideals and are an inspiration to those who know your spiritual side. Your flair for writing and creative pen blends the sadness and joys of life into a harmony that dreams are made of. But, if you scatter your energies, you may never complete your work and receive the rewards of your talents.
Saturn in Leo
(The Haughty)
You may have trouble in sharing all the love you have to give or finding the love you crave, and so allow an “I don’t care” attitude to become a mask, under which you hide your true feelings. You can also substitute imperiousness for emotional rapport and again deny your basic needs. Try to go with the world instead of against it. You may find a way to turn your negatives positive and enjoy the spin instead of just becoming dizzy and wanting to get off.
Uranus in Scorpio
(The Indomitable)
You are certain to achieve your goals, if willpower is the deciding issue. But, choose a proper path or your destructive qualities will turn on you with catastrophic results. Exercise caution when handling electricity or mechanical devices. You have amazing recuperative powers, but can’t depend on them if you insist on challenging disaster. Your passionate nature instills instant confidence. No one can doubt that you will complete anything you begin.
Neptune in Sagittarius
(The Sage)
You have a talent for understanding human nature and an uncanny ability to know what makes people “tick.” You are a perpetual student, and a gifted teacher. Your thirst for knowledge will prompt you to travel extensively. Try to remember that you must accept the customs of another country before they will accept you. Your beliefs are unconventional. You will continue to learn by experience and teach in love as did Plato, Socrates and their descendants in spirit.
Pluto in Libra
(The Rational)
As peacemaker, it is second-nature to act as liaison in fostering partnerships that contribute to world-harmony. Your high intellect and demand for justice may place you in public service where you can aid worthy causes by your involvement. Your love of truth may influence big business, where deceit will be overcome with honor. On an individual level, all this may be accomplished by setting an example through the simple amenities you practice every day.
North Node in Libra
(The Selfless)
You will not understand why others are promoted while you are passed by. You must change an attitude that the world revolves around you. Jealousy or resentment depletes your strength which should be used, not for your purposes alone, but to do for others what they cannot do. You will acquire the stature you long for by balancing your needs with others.
Planets in Aspect
Moon opposite Mercury (Strength: 6.75)
(The Fluctuater)
Rather than face the “ups and downs” of everyday life, you may withdraw to get in touch with yourself. Sort out what is “real” and what is emotional confusion that often keeps you from maintaining a position. Since you will always relate to childhood programming, it is important that you have practical guidance that will afford you security you will need as you mature. If you lack stability, periods of meditation may give you an insight to employ when you need it most.
Sun trine Neptune (Strength: 6.52)
(The Harmonious)
Your innate idealism is spiritually inspired. You believe in the “good, the true and the beautiful.” Your relationships symbolize a wish for accord with all humanity. Do not waste your gift of a lively imagination in idle daydreams. Coupled with an acute business acumen, it may take you far in the material world. But, at some time you will discover a need for metaphysical growth and find a channel for expression that may be unusual but of benefit to others.
Sun conjunct Venus (Strength: 5.77)
(The Socialite)
You are refined and cultured with a love of the arts and beautiful things. Because a day without fun is depressing, you make yourself attractive and available and are usually where something entertaining is going on. You can become self-indulgent and conceited, believing money and looks will take you farther than is reasonable, but when you see that “Pretty is as Pretty does,” will try to develop inner qualities to complement the glamorous image you project.
Venus trine Neptune (Strength: 5.24)
(The Union)
Your gentle spirit and creative mind blend to create idealistic inspiration. You can be self-deluding, and credit yourself with qualities of an ideal mate. As you can forgive shortcomings, you will be upset if others fault your image of perfection or deny you the same generous compassion you extend. Project realism and allow time to discover reality in relationships before commitment. You contribute much as a partner and deserve better than to live in an illusion.
Saturn square Uranus (Strength: 5.22)
(The Earthquake)
You are liable to experience unusual upsets from “left field” that jar your security from time to time. If you are bound by established, but inflexible customs, you will resist changes that accompany these events and be devastated by their effects. Consider your growth and whether something may be gained by experimenting with new feelings, thoughts and actions to enlarge your scope. If you choose to make a change, do so at the next opportunity to expand your horizons.
Sun opposite Pluto (Strength: 4.17)
(The Tempter)
You are almost certain to attract power struggles with others and determined to have your own way, “no matter what,” sometimes by devious means. You are dealing with blind ambition, which does not allow you to see that you may be in the wrong, but refuse to give up or modify your personal desires. Examine your motives; then ask yourself if there are more reasonable alternatives to your predicaments. Without some adjustment, you can do yourself irreparable harm.
Mars trine Uranus (Strength: 3.98)
(The Expressive)
You will find positive ways to release your tremendous store of energy, and may direct it into a career or some “life work” of an unusual nature. You will never go unnoticed because you express as a “different” kind of individual. Your unique imprint is on whatever you touch, whether constructive or destructive. Each success builds your confidence to move onward and upward. You are adventurous and are liable to “climb a mountain just because it’s there.”
Mars inconjunct Pluto (Strength: 2.97)
(The Unyielding)
If you seem unwilling to acknowledge more than your own opinion, it can cost you the friends, jobs, and opportunities for leadership that you earnestly desire. You may be obsessed with your personal interests, and openly show resentment of the mistakes of others, which you think spoil your chances. Or, you may learn a lesson in tolerance, if you are the victim of a martinet. See yourself in another’s place before you act, to gain rewards instead of rebukes for your efforts.
Mars square Neptune (Strength: 2.73)
(The Smoke Screen)
You often deal from weakness instead of the real strength you possess, or hide behind the mask of a bully or someone too idealistic to be practical. You fear if others see the “real” you, they will not appreciate your very worthwhile qualities and take advantage. Stop playing games if you wish to succeed in relationships. Decide to face issues honestly, or enlist the proper support to assist you over the hurdles and keep you on the straight course you must travel to achieve success.
Venus opposite Pluto (Strength: 1.94)
(The Tempestuous)
Your passionate energies need evaluation. Learn to measure yourself and your standards honestly. Hidden conflicts may be hard to pinpoint because they are an inherent part of you. Intense jealousy can motivate violent tantrums or actions that must be dealt with in a logical manner as forces within you that need release. Learn early to take responsibility for your own emotions. Desirable unions can end tragically if you resist self-control.
Sun trine Saturn (Strength: 1.41)
(The Mason)
You lay your foundations with an awareness that you are building for tomorrow. Authority figures appreciate your dedication and ability to organize your work so that all runs smoothly. Your needs and the needs of others are met in your relationships, though there may be a generation gap between you. If you remain stable but flexible, you should enjoy the success you deserve for your patience and inherent understanding of yourself and those who care for you.
Saturn sextile Pluto (Strength: 1.24)
(The Projector)
You utilize your possessions as though preparing for a “rainy day,” realize the value of the intrinsic and look ahead to events that may never happen. You may not enjoy youth because you are so serious about getting ahead in the world — not from need — but from an inherent desire to always have “enough.” It is doubtful you will want for much! Allow for small pleasures of time’s design. Whoever observed that “money can’t buy happiness” said a well-chosen mouthful.
Moon square Saturn (Strength: 0.94)
(The Lonely)
You may be depressed because you feel isolated and take the blame for your plight, but not know how to solve the problem. “Burying” yourself in work or other distractions is not going to satisfy you. Relationships often mean chancing rejection, but if you hesitate to brave a possible loss of pride, you will also deny an opportunity for fulfillment. By repressing feelings, you may find that you are denying expressions which can then emerge in a destructive way.
Neptune sextile Pluto (Strength: 0.69)
(The Self-aware)
It is important that you have the support of your family and friends. You are extremely sensitive and subject yourself to self-criticism that can be destructive and depressing. It may be that you need professional help to build your self-esteem. Later, you may transfer your intense feelings into knowledge you share with others. You may pursue a career in psychiatry or psychology, but will continue to investigate your own psyche for answers as to what “makes you tick.”
Moon inconjunct Jupiter (Strength: 0.44)
(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.
Mars inconjunct Saturn (Strength: 0.20)
(The Controlled)
You may feel the world is against you because of restrictions you may have earned! An illusion that you must become an adult overnight may mean that you are in a hurry to grow up. If you turn frustrations inward, you may invite fevers or other physical drains. If you do not receive recognition for your hard work, you might adapt the philosopher’s view that “The highest reward for honest toil is not what you get for it, but what you become by it!”
Moon conjunct Uranus (Strength: 0.16)
(The Hasty)
Your actions do not always meet with the approval of others, but that will seldom curb your desire to express as a unique individual. You act on impulse and take criticism of your whims as personal rejection. Try to develop discipline and concentration necessary to put your innovative potential to work for you in a productive manner. Otherwise, your brashness can prod you to begin more projects than you finish, leaving you “a jack of all trades and a master of none.”
Balance of Elements and Modalities
Abundant Fire
You are an active, future-oriented person who is not weighed down by past commitments. You take advantage of new opportunities better than most. Life for you can be a vibrant affair in which you passionately pursue causes, lovers, and experiences. You have the self-confidence to be a leader. Competitive and flamboyant, you have little patience for slow people or unexciting work. When an activity interests you, you can be very generous with your time, energy, and money. Find outlets for your gifts of creativity and intuition.
Watch out for a tendency to exaggerate or to be insensitive to others’ feelings. More cautious types may envy and resent your free spirit and competitive nature. You get bored easily and may depend on others to finish the projects that you start. When your warmth is guided by love, wisdom, and positive goals you have the ability to heal and inspire others, but when you focus on your self or lack direction, your short-lived passions can affect others in destructive ways.
Abundant Water
In your case, the heart rules the head. Your emotional drives are strong and you act primarily on the basis of your feelings. Whether your feelings are purely personal, interpersonal, or transpersonal is up to you, but generally you are a life-oriented person who feels keenly and who acts to support your family, friends, and community. You are happiest when you are in a caring relationship with a significant other. That person should be comfortable with the emotional closeness that you bring to relationships, while providing the structure or inspiration that you need. Some of your friends will not be as comfortable with emotional closeness as you are, and you will have to respect their boundaries. You have probably learned over the years how to keep your sensitive nature from being hurt. Don’t permanently withdraw, but find the people with whom and the environment in which you can be yourself.
Because of your sensitivity, you easily pick up others’ thoughts and feelings. You can anticipate others’ needs before they have expressed them. You can usually rely on your intuition when it comes to forecasting the outcome of personal and career decisions. If you decide to use your psychic abilities for healing, learn to let go of the negative feelings that you process from others. Since you are so sensitive, find quiet moments for private introspection in which you can reconnect with what you feel instead of what others feel. You also find it revitalizing to be around large bodies of water.
You do have a need to stop and think things through before acting. Make the effort to communicate with others who may have a more objective viewpoint or who could see solutions that elude you. You can sometimes be criticized for acting from a purely personal perspective, which you could avoid by learning and respecting society’s larger viewpoint. You can be very creative in finding paths to your personal goals. Keep the larger viewpoint in mind and later you will not have to try to rationalize to others why you chose those paths.
Lack of Earth
You may be so focused on the “bigger picture” that you have difficulty managing the many details of life. Balancing your checkbook or leaving your bedroom clean may seem beyond your abilities. Other tasks may be important, but you find it hard to concentrate long enough to complete them. Knowing your own lack of concentration and self-discipline, you may cling to established routines because you know that you are able to do important things through force of habit. If you do not flit from job to job, you could hold onto a job or a relationship for too long because you do not trust that you will be secure without it. Your lack of real world perspective may make it hard for you to distinguish that which really matters from that which is unimportant, so that you sometimes focus on small things while leaving the really big things undone. You may say that you care about money, but unless you have abundant planets in the houses of Substance, you will not execute a detailed plan to get it. If you can avoid driving them crazy, enlist the help of those more grounded than yourself in order to turn your inspirations into reality.
A lack of planets in Earth signs can be offset by an Earth sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Substance.
Lack of Air
Expressing yourself does not come easily to you. You distrust people who are fast, smooth talkers. It may be easier for you to express yourself nonverbally or in writing than it is through speaking. If you also lack planets in the houses of Relationships, you will find the normal avenues of communication and social learning blocked. Your thinking will be personal instead of detached or rational. With the mind’s normal communication channels blocked, you learn primarily from experience. Lacking in the ability to view yourself objectively, you gain self-understanding primarily through feedback from others.
Try to see life less personally, in a more objective way. Take classes and never stop educating yourself.
A lack of planets in Air signs can be offset by an Air sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Relationships.
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.
