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 and Houses

Leo Ascendant

(The Showman)

Your “mane” is your crowning glory and you delight in calling attention to it by tossing your head, or twisting or curling your hair.  You are conscious of your looks and enjoy displaying yourself to advantage.  Some consider you garish, but there are others who admire your colorful personality.  If you are shy, you still have the power to draw those to you who are somehow aware of the strength, warmth and pleasantly-entertaining personality behind your obscure exterior.

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.

Sun in the Ninth House

(The Professor)

Your thirst for learning extends beyond the classroom.  You acquire much of your knowledge from people of different cultures or in foreign lands.  You probably have a flair for languages, making you valuable as a translator.  It is possible you will earn more than one academic degree, and function as a teacher.  One of your most admirable qualities is that, by touching the lives of others, you will come to understand that all men are brothers, separated only by self-imposed restrictions.  Share your wisdom to overcome prejudice and the bigotry which impedes the spiritual growth of all.

Moon in Virgo

(The Spartan)

Your outwardly-cool attitude may cause others to approach you with caution, and make friendship difficult.  You are capable of accomplishing a lot, with little to work with.  You are not particularly ambitious, but may over-emphasize your limitations.  A place in scientific research is possible, where your practical mind and attention to detail can be appreciated.  If you are too hard on yourself or others, you can destroy your chances for recognition of your excellent merits.  Digestive difficulties may occur if you fret obsessively with no outlet for your frustrations.

Moon in the Second House

(The Collector)

You may take some time to settle into a job.  Bank a portion of your paycheck — even ask someone to manage your money for you.  Otherwise you may become a compulsive spender, gathering possessions which may substitute for emotional needs.  Going it alone, you may identify too closely with your possessions.  In choosing a partner, it should be a person who is appreciative of your spiritual, as well as material growth and is willing to contribute and grow with you.

Mercury in Pisces

(The Unique)

Your uncanny intuition and psychic feelings must often be accepted on faith, alone.  It is not easy to be “different.”  You may feel oppressed or fall into depressions that confound those who care for you.  Learn to recognize “teachers” who will help you develop your special qualities.  Then, find a proper channel to present your talents, even to those who cling to orthodox beliefs.  Offer your uncommon gifts in the name of humanity on the altar of mankind.

Mercury in the Eighth House

(The Mentalist)

You will discover early-on that (in your case) “mind over matter” is more than a saying.  You have great influence over others, and will find that you, in turn, are greatly impressed by the variety of people who will cross your path.  Your interests, provoked by a desire for self-discovery, may range from the occult to psychiatry.  Use what you find to improve yourself as a useful human being, willing to share your store of knowledge with your fellow man.

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.

Venus in the Ninth House

(The Idealist)

Your love of learning and sharing knowledge is almost certain to draw you to foreign lands.  You may even choose a career as a diplomat and live abroad.  Every man is your brother.  Every life you touch stimulates your desire to reach a higher level of spiritual being.  You benefit mankind by using your experience to educate the masses.  You are not a REVOLUTIONIST, but an EVOLUTIONIST, gathering means to feed a starving universe with fruits of your knowledge.

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.

Mars in the Eighth House

(The Broker)

An inner knowledge fits you to deal with people on the most basic of levels.  Through human encounter, you will continually change your life patterns, if not your goals.  Others will trust you to handle their ideas, personal conflicts and their money.  It is up to you to find ways to encourage the expansion of your associates and their assets in an objective manner without forcing an egoistic view of your personal evolution upon them.

Jupiter in Virgo

(The Hopeful)

Flashes of optimism will ease your concerns with yourself, allow you to relax, and overcome feelings of apprehension.  By being “yourself,” others can admire your fine qualities of intelligence, insight and practicality.  During those periods you may receive the advances you’ve desired, but were too conservative to promote.

Jupiter in the Second House

(The Big Spender)

You’ll let someone else take the dinner check, but if it’s haute cuisine, you don’t mind paying for it.  You may even spend to impress others, or talk them into investing, but your free-wheeling ways can squander their money.  And, you’re so cheerful about it, they may not even mind!  Your motto is, “If it’s there to enjoy, count the pleasure, not the cost!

Saturn in Aquarius

(The Apprentice)

You are a student of the universe and will explore different avenues, while attracting a variety of friends. Many of these will be with you for your lifetime of discovery.  You will delve into both orthodox and progressive values before adapting them to your own original purposes.  Your findings may have intrinsic worth in your later years.  Don’t discount their significance.  A master is no less a master because he must adhere to a need for creature comforts.

Saturn in the Seventh House

(The Odd Couple)

You will often find partners disagreeing with what you personally desire, or the means by which you achieve your ends.  Your values may be different, due to an age-gap.  You are likely to be too stubborn to give up your beliefs, methods, or a relationship, itself.  Agree to disagree or to accept the fact that you both have much to learn from association.   You can profit by enlarging your understanding to include an opposite point of view.

Uranus in Capricorn

(The Departure)

You will occasionally relax your normally-austere facade and abandon your conventional ways.  You enjoy originality and indulging your creative side, while keeping your aims intact. You are interested in balancing, rather than tipping the scales, and may hold offices that require tolerance, as well as authority.  Your excellent powers of discernment encourage improving conditions for yourself and others, since you take a long-range, instead of a narrow view.

Uranus in the Sixth House

(The Job-hopper)

You may waste time jumping from job to job as you search for one compatible with your personality.  You resent subjugation by conditions or the will of others.  If you “make do” for the sake of a paycheck, nervous conditions may result because of repressed energy.  You will be happiest with work that allows you flexibility and an opportunity to do things your way.   If that is impossible, at least try to “get away from it all” when away from your work environment.

Neptune in Capricorn

(The Mogul)

No matter what you put your hand to, it seems to come up gold.  This is no accident, but the result of keen insight, careful planning, and the persistence to ride over rough times and wait until fortune smiles.  You’re sometimes observed as a barometer for the stock market.  Even obscure plans take shape under your direction.  When you trust someone, you take his shortcomings as your own.  If betrayed, your confidence can only be rebuilt by time and testing.

Neptune in the Sixth House

(The Sensitive)

You may suffer allergies or dietary problems that are difficult to diagnose from early childhood.  You must be careful about ingesting drugs, even if they are prescribed by a physician.  A tender heart may lead you to work for those less fortunate than yourself, either as a career, or an act of charity.  Those who oppose you as “too good to be true” are envious of the satisfaction derived from your unselfish service.  Ignore them and enjoy your good works.

Pluto in Scorpio

(The Regenerator)

You are a believer in second chances, but a tendency to hold fast to everything past the time of practicality weakens your effectiveness to accept new opportunity.  You are always stronger because of the wisdom gained in past experiences.  On a world-scale, you can offer the proof of your convictions that there is much that may be salvaged for renewal, rather than a stubborn determination to do things your way at the expense of the greater good.

Pluto in the Fourth House

(The Martinet)

At best, you exemplify the iron fist in the velvet glove in your demands of your family and the structure of your home.  A Victorian father would best describe the image you present to your children, who may eventually find your edicts absurd. We are often victims of victims.  Practices of your parents may no longer be valid when you have outgrown childhood.  Try to break any ties that keep you bound to outmoded ideas or policies that are no longer practical.

Taurus Midheaven

You will do best in a career that offers steady growth, a career in which you can study what works and then be the one to provide stability and direction for the organization.  As long as you are earning a good income, enjoy positive relations with your coworkers, and have a little beauty where you work, you will be content to work quietly.  You are unlikely to push for change or to be combative in the workplace, unless someone affronts your pride.

You are good at cultivating relations with people, as opposed to things, and will extend yourself to others in the workplace. Your network of personal connections and inside knowledge, gained over time, makes you quite a resourceful employee.   You have faith in common sense and the existing order.  Change throws you off-balance.  If you are emotionally stressed, you may regard acquiring material possessions to be some sort of solution, which it is not.  You could also become surprisingly stubbon and vocal in your displeasure.  Remember that you have developed many resources.  Concentrate upon cultivating and using them for the common good.

Occupations consistent with your stable, practical style of work include official, executive, artist, singer, musician, designer, beautician, banker, business investor, property manager, farmer, stockbreeder, evangelist, advertiser, builder or public servant.  For the most personal career guide, also consider the nature of any planets which fall in the 10th house or conjoin the Midheaven, the sign and house placements of Venus, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

North Node in Capricorn

(The Infant)

You may be a “mama’s baby,” and enjoy the role, but must give up childhood pampering, or continue tossing on a sea of emotional turmoil.  When you assume adult responsibilities, you will exercise your fine qualities of honor, loyalty and discipline.  Then you will earn the respect and pride, as well as the love of parents and peers, which you have always known.

North Node in the Fifth House

(The Princess)

Like the lady in the tower, awaiting rescue, all you need do is open your eyes to see a staircase.  You prefer fantasies to the workaday world.  Learn what is real and of lasting value.  Acquire self-discipline to become a “doer.”   You have the power to make your dreams come true, but cannot expect them to manifest before taking your first steps into reality.

Planets in Aspect

Uranus conjunct Neptune  (Strength:  5.04)

(The Fantastic)

You are aware of a “different” kind of consciousness and may show an interest in the mysteries at an early age.  You are attracted to unusual methods of mind-control or expansion, including hypnosis, or may be tempted to try hallucinatory drugs or other “mind benders.”  If you pursue illumination through scientific or metaphysical exploration, there are proper ways of approaching it.  You may be “playing” with a fire you can’t control, once you light the candle!

Moon opposite Mars  (Strength:  3.64)

(The Untenable)

You ride an emotional see-saw which is difficult to control, particularly in personal relationships.  You may have trouble relating to women as a result of childhood programming by a mother-figure.  Your emotions can provoke involuntary tantrums that may prove embarrassing.  Try to develop a tolerance for others since you are not essentially a “loner.” You need people in your life who may help you to mature as a calmer individual, capable of leadership instead of tyranny.

Moon conjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  2.44)

(The Equipollent)

You have a strong conviction that what you put into something will be returned in equal measure.  In most cases you are right, and since you project confidence, enthusiasm, nurturing and good will, that is what you attract.  However, you must avoid temptations to acquire “too much of a good thing.”  You are, by nature, given to excesses.  Don’t allow your optimism to lure you with empty hopes and promises into depths beyond your reach and over your head.

Moon inconjunct Venus  (Strength:  2.43)

(The Defiler)

Your daydreams can get you into trouble, if you fail to separate them from reality.  You may be inconsistent in your plans, tend to be fickle and settle for “whatever feels good.” Your self-indulgence can lead to a variety of health problems due to promiscuity in sex or “escaping” into addictive substances.  Moderation in all things will help to balance your impulsive nature.  At least, try to look and listen before taking a leap that may well spell your downfall.

Sun inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.18)

(The Over-zealous)

Your determination to have things your way can work against you, especially if you refuse to adapt to change.  You may find yourself in power plays because of an attitude that “Yours is the only way!”  Unrelenting pressures may be self-imposed, but if you are a bully, you will attract those who enjoy fighting.  Instead of hurling yourself at the top, learn patience.  Seek, Find and GROW.  You can leave this life stronger, wiser, and more successful than when you entered it.

Sun square Neptune  (Strength:  1.81)

(The Disoriented)

You may feel “lost.”  Misdirection in your life can result in repeated defeats and feelings of inadequacy.   Energy drops may be frequent so that you “never really feel good.”  You are at the center of your problems, so you, alone, hold the solutions.  It is not easy to reprogram for success, but begin by building resources in both body and mind.  Your idealism will encourage you to continue to believe that “life is what you make it” and can be beautiful, indeed.

Sun square Uranus  (Strength:  0.85)

(The Daredevil)

You are courageous, but may also be rebellious and reckless.  If expecting the unexpected appeals to you, your life should be as thrilling and exciting as you could wish. But, if you try to sail a smooth sea, you may invite upsets that continually disturb your plans.  Changes may damage your originality, if you plunge headlong into the unknown, but upon examination may provide you with the means to mold your life-direction until it accommodates your special cast.

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  0.62)

(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.”

Saturn square Pluto  (Strength:  0.60)

(True Grit)

You may feel the world is against you or that life is a continuous struggle, with you the innocent victim.  Even if you must combat overwhelming odds, you will find ways to express yourself and your ideas as an effective individual.  The more difficult the obstacle and the less you have to work with, the stronger you will become.  When you establish your values, you will defend them wholeheartedly and few can come against you without knowing they have been in a fight.

Venus inconjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  0.00)

(The Spendthrift)

You may depend too much on appearances to attract what you think are the “right” crowd and circumstances.  Your self-delusion is apparent when you spend emotionally without an idea of how you will “pay the rent.”  To compensate for frustrated dreams of grandeur, you may indulge your sweet tooth, which can result in unwanted pounds and inches, or even in allergies.  By curbing your appetites and employing a practical outlook, you may find the very successes you desire.

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).

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.

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.

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 Substance

With abundant planets in the houses of substance, you know your place in the material world.  You know how to extract value and give value via your business, work, and career activities.  The rules of the world come easily to you.  Others admire and depend on your hard work and practical nature.  If you get depressed, make time for recreation and family.

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 Gemini

(Keynote:  I THINK)

You are idealistic, witty, charming, inventive and active, as well as being undependable, nervous, restless and fragmented.  Your curious mind leaves few stones unturned, for you love to explore.  You are able to teach others what you have learned, and often improved upon.  Your unpredictability and uncanny intuition stimulates the imagination of your friends; you enjoy the stir you create in social settings.  You lose chances by trading commitment for superficiality. Your flexibility should allow you to choose any partner and turn the thrill of a moment into a lifetime of significance.

Moon in Aquarius

(The Individual)

You are not always practical, but are unorthodox and misunderstood by those who do not appreciate that you are a true liberal of rare talent.  You cannot be restricted by the bonds of convention or a regulated society.  Whatever you do is done with all your heart, but once you have accomplished your purpose, you move on, which may give you a reputation of indifference.  Your independence can result in loneliness, though you surround yourself with people and join causes in which you strongly believe.  You search for enlightenment to bring you to the state of peace and tranquility you long for.

Mercury in Cancer

(The Parent)

Your remarkable intuition lets you see the vulnerability of your fellow man, but it may be somewhat narrow in concept. You often depend more upon feelings than rationale to treat issues in an appropriate manner.  You may tend to relive childhood experiences, which can make you moody and sometimes reclusive, if the recall is painful.  Rather than retreat, learn from experience and consider the consequences of present actions as they may affect your future.

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 Cancer

(The Pressure Cooker)

You will harbor resentments from childhood, and many of them stem from a rebellion against a mother-figure.  You may try to run away from imposed values with which you may not agree, but find you still have a need for the security of a home and family.  Discover early that you must earn the right to be your “own” person.  A certain amount of parental help is necessary as a fledgling discovers its wings.  Professional counseling may be advisable before you “blow your top!”

Jupiter in Aries

(The Pioneer)

You see the potential in everything and everybody, but success is not the same for everyone.  While nothing seems impossible to you, others are not blessed with your optimism that “where there’s a will, there’s a way.”  Undaunted by failure, you will not settle for less than the best and will try to reach a star, long after you’ve gained a mountain-top.

Saturn in Sagittarius

(The Persuader)

You have the ability to influence others to join a crusade; as long as you adhere to your high principles, they will admire and probably follow you without question. However, you must be prepared to encounter those who disagree with your beliefs and oppose you.  Carefully guard your words and actions because they can be held against you.  The flames you ignite may become a holocaust out of your control.

Uranus in Sagittarius

(The Diviner)

You are amazingly accurate in forecasting events or circumstances that come about.  You have a good grasp of logic, so are unlikely to exceed your gifts, but use them to research areas that may contribute to the future of mankind. You are unconventional in your beliefs, fearless in your concepts, and may adopt philosophy rather than religion as a guideline.  You should introduce prudence into your restless nature to create wisdom you may share with others.

Neptune in Capricorn

(The Mogul)

No matter what you put your hand to, it seems to come up gold.  This is no accident, but the result of keen insight, careful planning, and the persistence to ride over rough times and wait until fortune smiles.  You’re sometimes observed as a barometer for the stock market.  Even obscure plans take shape under your direction.  When you trust someone, you take his shortcomings as your own.  If betrayed, your confidence can only be rebuilt by time and testing.

Pluto in Scorpio

(The Regenerator)

You are a believer in second chances, but a tendency to hold fast to everything past the time of practicality weakens your effectiveness to accept new opportunity.  You are always stronger because of the wisdom gained in past experiences.  On a world-scale, you can offer the proof of your convictions that there is much that may be salvaged for renewal, rather than a stubborn determination to do things your way at the expense of the greater good.

North Node in Aries

(The Uncertain)

You project confidence, but are plagued with doubt that you can produce all that you promise.  You dislike calling others for assistance because it means exposing your soft underbelly.  When you learn you have many supporters waiting to follow your lead, you may discover that “your own person” is the “you” you wanted to be all along.

Planets in Aspect

Sun opposite Uranus  (Strength:  6.91)

(The Destroyer)

Outside influences may lead you to believe that upsets are inevitable.  In reality, unexpressed feelings result in tensions you find it difficult to acknowledge.  You may not recognize any pace but “fast-forward,” and ignore a need to “relax and enjoy.”  Running away is not an answer to problems.  Interactions with partners can indicate how you relate to the universe.  You are a unique individual who can invent the ways and means necessary to align yourself with the cosmos.

Mercury conjunct Mars  (Strength:  4.93)

(The Argumentative)

Early discipline is important.  Otherwise, instead of controlling an explosive temper and disruptive feelings, they are sure to control you.  You are quick to speak your mind or point of view, often without being asked, which can cause resentment and aggravation with others.  You enjoy challenge, particularly if it leads to self-improvement.  If you direct your excess of energy constructively into what is really important to you, you can shorten your road to success.

Jupiter trine Uranus  (Strength:  4.92)

(The Favored)

You are blessed with unexpected opportunities that seem to materialize from nowhere.  But, unless you are quick to take advantage, they may vanish like smoke from a Genie’s lamp.  Fortunately, you enjoy or will create the necessary freedom to accept any bounty that comes your way.  If it involves change, your pleasure is doubled.  You are ready to grow, expand and, when given the chance, develop the ability to fly towards your fortune with the wind at your back!

Sun sextile Jupiter  (Strength:  3.83)

(The Fortunate)

You will find and associate with those with whom you can combine your ideas and efforts to everyone’s advantage.  You often attract those in authority who can further your efforts.  Because your plans are well formed, they usually bear fruit, giving you a reputation of being successful in whatever you tackle.  You learn and grow from your affiliations, and often conquer those who oppose you by inviting them to join in your joyous pursuit of the “good life!”

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  3.55)

(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.”

Mars inconjunct Saturn  (Strength:  2.70)

(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!”

Venus inconjunct Neptune  (Strength:  2.47)

(The Misconception)

You breathe romance into every facet of your life, refusing to accept mundane expectations or a practical life-style.  You may compensate for lack of fulfillment by indulging a prominent sweet-tooth, or hallucinatory substances which are harmful to your health.  If you pay the freight to maintain an idealistic alliance, you can invite deceptive partners.  Ask yourself if you can afford the disappointment and the debts which plague your troubled relationships.

Sun trine Moon  (Strength:  2.36)

(The Composed)

You have a good understanding of who you are and what you can accomplish.  You often help your friends to make the decisions that will bring their lives into balance through needed adjustments.  You believe in paying attention to stress signals that threaten your equilibrium and correcting your problems through adapting to change.  You are exemplary of the blending of the Yin and Yang or the harmonious merging of spiritual needs and bodily expression.

Venus inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.01)

(The Luxury Lover)

You tend to go overboard in your wishes and demands.  Your love can be possessive and jealous.  If partners do not conform to your ideals, you may insist on trying to make them over.  Your determination to cling to “what is yours” can become obsessive.  Money is all-important for your desired lifestyle, and you pursue it relentlessly.  You can drive that which you most desire away unless you truly begin to practice moderation and the old axiom of “Live and let live.”

Mercury inconjunct Saturn  (Strength:  1.63)

(The Gloomy)

WHERE is your sense of humor?  If there is a “down-side” to any given circumstance, you are sure to spot it.  “Turning a frown upside down to find the smile” may seem childish, but can be necessary to get along with those who run from your dour approach.  You may research reasons for your pessimism, but would do better not to worry “why” as much as to discover the positive reasons to enjoy life that are ready to greet you each day, the moment you open your eyes and start counting.

Moon sextile Uranus  (Strength:  0.27)

(The Emancipated)

You enjoy change and thrive on excitement.  Your friends mirror your stimulating energy.  You are interested in subjects you can absorb quickly, or peripherally, if they require much concentration.  Opportunities may appear unexpectedly.  If they stir your imagination, you sometimes accept them because of intuitive nudges that come and go. Some might say you live life in the “fast” lane, but to you, an unscheduled spin is what makes the world go ’round.

Moon square Venus  (Strength:  0.04)

(The Impassioned)

You are intent on romance, but may be too fervent to realize you are over-protective or possessive of your loved-one.  If you do not have a relationship, you will feel out of balance until you attract a partner, and will make every effort to do so.  Your feelings may stem from a parent-child affinity if you are sentimental about the marriage of your parents.  Be sure you are acting from real love more than sentiment or need if you c

onsider entering a commitment.

Balance of Elements and Modalities

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.

Abundant Air

You seem to live for mental exploration.  Discovering and communicating the connections between ideas, people, and places is your function in life.  Your active mind is good at identifying new frontiers whose basics you quickly master, so that you end up knowing something about almost everything.  You have a dispassionate nature that cooly considers the pros and cons of a situation, able to place logic above personal emotion.  From your mental viewpoint, emotions look irrational.  You make a good negotiator, sales person, communicator, arbitrator, analyst, and information processor.  Ideas flow quickly for you.  While impersonal and dispassionate, you nonetheless thrive on communication and social interaction.  At your best, you strive to understand and accept people, not to change them.  Courageously, you adhere to principles.  You appreciate culture, structure, and systems.

Your greatest strength is also your weakness, namely too much coolness from placing head above heart.  Leaders must be able to follow their hearts without being indecisive or equivocating.  And you ignore your real connection to others if you use your mental gifts to coldly manipulate them.  Try to avoid isolation by functioning as part of a team in which your logic, analysis, and communication skills are put to good use.  Work with others who may be more practical, sensitive, or passionate than are you. Don’t keep your good ideas inside, but write them down and communicate them to others.

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 and Houses

Pisces Ascendant

(The Poet)

Your large, round eyes are soulful, your hair curly or softly waving, and your thoughts brooding.  Behind your rose-colored glasses is a brilliant mind that needs structure.  But, you’re not apt to get it in school, where you daydream rather than study.  Extraordinary intuition will guide but not prepare you for success by ordinary means.  Adhere to a spiritual plan of development: Envision, believe and then employ the necessary means to achieve your highest goals.

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.

Sun in the First House

(The Driving Force)

In all things you must be first.  Patience is not your long suit, but try to make allowances for those who lack your talent for making quick judgments.  Partnerships can be difficult because of your hair-trigger temper.  It is through your partners that you find the harmony and stability you so desperately need for balance.  You have what it takes to succeed: Good health, charm, confidence and courage — the qualities of a leader.  But, they are also the traits of a tyrant.  The choice is always yours as to how you use the tremendous powers at your disposal.

Moon in Sagittarius

(The Prophet)

You have a gift of farsightedness, which lets you see an entire picture instead of fragments available to others.  You amaze yourself at what your mind can conceive and often achieve with little effort, as though you were born to succeed.  You are open and frank, and for the most part, kind, but your thoughtless remarks can leave a wrong impression or create enemies.  A need for physical activity should not be ignored.  Otherwise, you can suffer “burn out” from too many mental gyrations, which will throw your balance and make you less efficient in your rush to attain your ambitions.

Moon in the Ninth House

(The Wanderer)

You are old beyond your years, so may find school a bore.  When you exercise a talent for writing about foreign lands or ancient history, it is almost as if you had lived there in another time.  Your dreams seem more mind-recall than fantasy.  You may travel the globe in search of higher learning, but an inherent restlessness makes it difficult for you to stay very long in one place because you are forever eager to get on with your own evolvement.

Mercury in Pisces

(The Unique)

Your uncanny intuition and psychic feelings must often be accepted on faith, alone.  It is not easy to be “different.”  You may feel oppressed or fall into depressions that confound those who care for you.  Learn to recognize “teachers” who will help you develop your special qualities.  Then, find a proper channel to present your talents, even to those who cling to orthodox beliefs.  Offer your uncommon gifts in the name of humanity on the altar of mankind.

Mercury in the First House

(The Promoter)

You know yourself well and think on your feet.  You can express your point of view but may be scattered and easily distracted.  You may lack follow-through so that others think you too superficial to be taken seriously.  You often talk yourself into a desirable situation and lose it because of a tendency to hyperbolize.  Choose and channel your words with discipline.  Learn to be a good listener.  Remember, nothing worth remembering is accomplished by talk, alone.

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.

Venus in the Second House

(The Status-Seeker)

An innate dislike of ugliness makes the acquisition of beautiful things almost a necessity.  But, an obsession for accumulating expensive serendipity for the sake of creating an illusion of opulence can encourage acquiring money for money’s sake.  If there is an opportunity, you may marry for money at the expense of love.  True values need constant attention to rise above the temptation to worship at a golden idol’s feet.

Mars in Capricorn

(The Enduring)

Your life is geared for success.  Even your close relationships can be exploited to advantage.  You are selective in your goals and methods to achieve them.  Your intuition and ambition work together to overcome obstacles that would defeat one with less fortitude.  You often burden yourself with the problems of others, viewing each as a learning experience.  You may receive your rewards late in life, but are sure to be honored for your hard work.

Mars in the Tenth House

(The Climber)

You are determined to reach the top through your own efforts, and are probably capable of doing so.  Almost nothing can stop you, once you set your course, and you will attract admirers to assist your efforts.  Because of your strong ego-drive, you may also invite power plays with authority figures.  A careful look at who you are dealing with and an examination of different views can resolve conflicts and forestall what may be irreparable damage to your dreams of glory.

Jupiter in Pisces

(The Benevolent)

No sacrifice is too great for you to make to help someone in need.  But, you are extremely impressionable, and must be careful not to absorb and experience the ills of others as your own.  Whether you receive the same compassion you give is immaterial.  You serve cheerfully and derive your greatest satisfaction from seeing the positive results of your efforts.

Jupiter in the First House

(The Bon Vivant)

You love life and life loves you right back!  People enjoy your company, and you have plenty of it.  Your confidence inspires confidence and your very presence is a lift to the spirits.  If you exaggerate truth, it’s only because you are expansive by nature and if something is good, you want to make it better — and, you usually do!

Saturn in Sagittarius

(The Persuader)

You have the ability to influence others to join a crusade; as long as you adhere to your high principles, they will admire and probably follow you without question. However, you must be prepared to encounter those who disagree with your beliefs and oppose you.  Carefully guard your words and actions because they can be held against you.  The flames you ignite may become a holocaust out of your control.

Saturn in the Ninth House

(The Thinker)

You probably have the self-confidence usually born of long experience, no matter your age.  Your powers of concentration enable you to absorb the essentials of life in great chunks.  A career in law may satisfy your sense of justice.  However, inherent knowledge may preclude the experience to utilize it.  If your viewpoint seems narrow, look for ways to augment it.  Like the Bluebird, you may find them waiting in your own back yard.

Uranus in Sagittarius

(The Diviner)

You are amazingly accurate in forecasting events or circumstances that come about.  You have a good grasp of logic, so are unlikely to exceed your gifts, but use them to research areas that may contribute to the future of mankind. You are unconventional in your beliefs, fearless in your concepts, and may adopt philosophy rather than religion as a guideline.  You should introduce prudence into your restless nature to create wisdom you may share with others.

Uranus in the Tenth House

(The Rebel)

You may change your mind more than once about a choice of career.  You’re impatient and dislike criticism, so may have problems with anyone who makes rules and expects you to conform.  Your mind is quick and innovative, but you often have so many irons in the fire, you can’t decide which to put on the front burner.  Your potential is obvious, but you must listen to those in authority and adapt your unique skills and ideas to their format, if you are to succeed.

Neptune in Capricorn

(The Mogul)

No matter what you put your hand to, it seems to come up gold.  This is no accident, but the result of keen insight, careful planning, and the persistence to ride over rough times and wait until fortune smiles.  You’re sometimes observed as a barometer for the stock market.  Even obscure plans take shape under your direction.  When you trust someone, you take his shortcomings as your own.  If betrayed, your confidence can only be rebuilt by time and testing.

Neptune in the Tenth House

(The Bewildered)

As if establishing goals for career and initiating a life course were not difficult enough, before you complete your education, you may despair of fitting into ANY role you have chosen.  Rather than change WHAT you are doing, try to discover if you are realistic about your potential and the manner in which you apply yourself.  If you need the advice of a counselor, choose one who does not deal with abstractions, but can suggest a practical means of achieving success.

Pluto in Scorpio

(The Regenerator)

You are a believer in second chances, but a tendency to hold fast to everything past the time of practicality weakens your effectiveness to accept new opportunity.  You are always stronger because of the wisdom gained in past experiences.  On a world-scale, you can offer the proof of your convictions that there is much that may be salvaged for renewal, rather than a stubborn determination to do things your way at the expense of the greater good.

Pluto in the Eighth House

(The Rejuvenator)

Your life is one of constant change, as though you are living several lifetimes in one.  Your gifts of intuition and an ability to restore to advantage when things fall apart are in your favor.  You can usually see beneath the surface of any situation, which gives you a decided edge, but try to avoid circumstances which put someone else in the driver’s seat.  You can look forward to each transforming experience which usually announces a period of spiritual growth.

Sagittarius Midheaven

You would be happiest in a career which allows you to enthusiastically inspire others.  You easily develop expertise which you visibly display to a large audience.  You would make a good consultant, motivator, propagandist, publicist, missionary, and spreader of the word.   Always in motion, you want to continually evolve in your career.  Your up-beat focus is on the future, not the past.  Those who are down, you cheer with your optimism.  You can be an outspoken crusader for justice and for the humane treatment of people, children, and animals.

You excel at work that calls for skill in human relationships, as you are affable and congenial in your personal contacts.  In your job there should be considerable freedom in what you do and how you are allowed to do it.  You would enjoy travelling to or at least communicating with varied locations.  You have an egalitarian, open-minded approach to people from various backgrounds.  You can successfully handle a variety of duties.  The potential drawbacks of this placement are scattered energies, lack of discipline, impulsiveness, and natural outspokenness turned to arguing for its own sake.  Your energies are best organized when guided by a goal or vision.

Occupations consistent with your changeable, active style of work include traveler, teacher, philosopher, outdoors occupation, hunter, athlete, publisher, advertiser, publicist, scholar, artist, conductor, businessperson, government official, lawyer, judge, or consultant .  For the most personal career guide, also consider the nature of any planets which fall in the 10th house or conjoin the Midheaven, the sign and house placements of Jupiter, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

North Node in Taurus

(The Conscientious)

You are aware of the values of society and surround yourself with obvious signs of wealth and propriety.  Still, you fret that you fail to impress others with your exemplary image.  Such pretense is unnecessary.  You are not judged by what you have, but who you are.  Like the prodigal son, yours are the riches of the universe and are free for the asking.

North Node in the Second House

(The Appraiser)

You question the value of everything and may be envious of what others possess.  You MUST establish what is meaningful to YOU!  You can’t siphon happiness and make it your own.  A fear that time is against you may produce feelings of inadequacy, but once you believe that you deserve what you get, you will make every effort to win rewards for good works.

Planets in Aspect

Moon conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  8.28)

(The Impressionable)

You are highly receptive to the moods of others.  Learn to tune in to your own feelings or you may become the victim of another’s depressions or problems.  Your mother may be influential in shaping your career, as you are responsive to women.  When you feel overwhelmed emotionally, delay making decisions or trying to get your point across to others. Periods of quiet meditation and occasional seclusion restore your psyche and are essential to your well-being.

Jupiter square Saturn  (Strength:  7.86)

(The Wary)

You are much like the old song that complains: “You have a feeling that you wanna go — then, you wanna stay — but you gotta go!”  You have an urge to expand or break away from restrictions, but may be overly careful — as if you never feel you have what it takes to succeed, so are a perpetual student instead of a graduate in the school of life.  You may set modest goals, unworthy of your higher potential.  Faith in yourself will prepare you for the success you can achieve.

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  7.39)

(The Expansive)

You desire the best of all-possible worlds and can’t settle for less.  You may depend on others to provide your needs rather than to put your own energy into your projects.  You are surprised if they balk or object, since you reason you would do the same for them under similar circumstances –and you would!  You are never satisfied with current achievements and will spend much of your life employing an “extra stretch” to extend your knowledge and share your findings.

Sun trine Saturn  (Strength:  7.18)

(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.

Jupiter trine Pluto  (Strength:  5.19)

(The Activator)

You are consumed with a yearning for self-improvement, but must ask yourself why you are so driven.  You can inspire others as a “mover and a shaker” whose motivation is justified in the success you achieve, but it may not be enough.  Expand your efforts to include those who lack your zeal or courage to act on what they devoutly believe.  In helping others, you constantly renew yourself, your ambitions and the confidence that you can continue to grow by going the “extra mile.”

Moon square Mercury  (Strength:  4.98)

(The Misunderstood)

You can encounter considerable frustration in getting your point across.  It is not that others are ignorant, but that you are too emotionally involved with what you are trying to say to use a logical approach.  If you express your feelings, it may be a good way to relieve tension and invite new insight to “clear the air.”  It is not necessarily compromise but mutual rapport that often resolves any lack of communication that exists between you and your opposition.

Sun trine Moon  (Strength:  3.16)

(The Composed)

You have a good understanding of who you are and what you can accomplish.  You often help your friends to make the decisions that will bring their lives into balance through needed adjustments.  You believe in paying attention to stress signals that threaten your equilibrium and correcting your problems through adapting to change.  You are exemplary of the blending of the Yin and Yang or the harmonious merging of spiritual needs and bodily expression.

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  3.12)

(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 conjunct Saturn  (Strength:  2.93)

(The Responsible)

You may have had to take on “too much too soon,” but find ways to lighten your load.  Taking duty seriously does not mean jeopardizing your health or even your sense of humor. You tend to be hard on yourself, over-critical and frustrated because you feel out of synch with others, but you will develop excellent discipline and become self-reliant and trustworthy.  You recognize your mortality, but take as your creed: “When the going gets tough, the tough get going!”

Sun square Neptune  (Strength:  2.92)

(The Disoriented)

You may feel “lost.”  Misdirection in your life can result in repeated defeats and feelings of inadequacy.   Energy drops may be frequent so that you “never really feel good.”  You are at the center of your problems, so you, alone, hold the solutions.  It is not easy to reprogram for success, but begin by building resources in both body and mind.  Your idealism will encourage you to continue to believe that “life is what you make it” and can be beautiful, indeed.

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  2.36)

(The Self-indulgent)

You are interested in self-improvement, but may surfeit yourself with knowledge you may never use, and courses not appropriate to your lifestyle.  You are generous to a fault, but may exact payment by boasting to friends how you have traveled, studied and “lived.”  Self-improvement need not mean arrogance that can turn others from you.  Modesty will permit your exuberance for expansion to become a source of delight and interest rather than a reason for evasion and derision.

Venus conjunct North Node  (Strength:  1.87)

(The Patron)

You are a sponsor of all things beautiful, artistic or refined.  You shy from ugly situations, though can be depended upon to create order from chaos.  Your word is your bond. Even if you regret a commitment, you will see it through.  You pride yourself on accomplishing more than an average worker, but may overpledge your time.  Punctuality and practicality are not among your sterling qualities, but regard for others can encourage you to remedy your faults.

Venus trine Mars  (Strength:  1.63)

(The Union)

You are physically attractive and attracted to others who project their sexuality in a positive manner.  Your pairings are intense, you seldom let them get out of the balance that makes for harmonious relationships.  You sense when you are being “used” and will dissolve a partnership if unanimity is not restored.  However, partings need not be chaotic.  You are a diplomatic charmer, valued for the friendship you extend and maintain without surrendering your individuality.

Mercury square Uranus  (Strength:  1.58)

(The Pressured)

You seem constantly “under the gun” to produce creative ideas associated with your quick and innovative mind.  You may be clear as to your intent, but too original for others to accept your proposals.  You long to get away from it all but travel can be stressful because of unexpected delays and interruptions.  Try to scale your concepts so that others can understand them.  Experience will prove what is acceptable or so radical that it must be shelved for another time.

Mars conjunct Neptune  (Strength:  1.56)

(The Converse)

You are dealing with energies diametrically opposed, but can achieve balance if you notice or anticipate sudden bursts of or drops in endurance.  By using your intuition, you may be aware of those who try to involve you in nefarious activities or take advantage by appealing to your ego.  Gather your resources when you are discouraged or lack the drive to launch your dreams.  Objectivity instead of subjectivity may furnish answers otherwise unacceptable to your sensitive nature.

Venus trine Uranus  (Strength:  1.40)

(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.

Jupiter sextile Neptune  (Strength:  1.34)

(The Philanthropist)

Traditional views of religion are not necessarily satisfying to your need for spirituality.  You may prefer to “live” your faith rather than give it “lip service.”  Your concern for others prompts you to extend a helping hand in a sincere desire to serve, but does not mean you can accomplish miracles.  But, if you achieve a balance between the demands of the material world and continue to do uplifting work, you will one day know the meaning of fulfillment.

Sun inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  0.80)

(The Over-zealous)

Your determination to have things your way can work against you, especially if you refuse to adapt to change.  You may find yourself in power plays because of an attitude that “Yours is the only way!”  Unrelenting pressures may be self-imposed, but if you are a bully, you will attract those who enjoy fighting.  Instead of hurling yourself at the top, learn patience.  Seek, Find and GROW.  You can leave this life stronger, wiser, and more successful than when you entered it.

Saturn conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  0.09)

(The Award)

It may take you some time to get where you’re going, but your hard work and perseverance will pay off.  Lay your plans carefully.  Achievement of your goals has nothing to do with “luck.”  Do not alienate yourself from those who care for you and are willing to follow your lead.  You need their support. You tend to be inflexible, but be prepared to restructure your thinking.  As a realist, you should allow enough margin for error to absorb the revisions that assure your success.

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 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.

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.

Abundant Life

Abundant planets in the houses of life gives you both the energy and the urge to create the future.  By your activities, you make the world a better place. You may be somewhat self-centered, but with your crusading spirit you move the world towards the ideals that you envision.

Abundant Substance

With abundant planets in the houses of substance, you know your place in the material world.  You know how to extract value and give value via your business, work, and career activities.  The rules of the world come easily to you.  Others admire and depend on your hard work and practical nature.  If you get depressed, make time for recreation and family.

Lack of Relationships

Relating to other people probably plays a minor role in your life.  You could remain unmarried, be a loner, or even be an orphan.  Your thinking is probably subjective or personal, without the objectivity that comes from having communicated with many people.  Let others teach you by showing you and if they give you any feedback on your thinking, see if you can learn from it.

A lack of planets in the houses of Relationships can be offset by abundant planets in Air signs.

Lack of Endings

You live on the surface of things, afraid to look within at what you really feel and want.  Perhaps your position is too precarious or the obligations too great to allow yourself this luxury.  You feel forced to maintain your personal status quo.  You come across to others as unfeeling.  Because personal feelings do not distract you, you might make a good scientist, though be aware that the greatest scientists let intuitive feelings be their guide.

A lack of planets in the houses of Endings can be offset by abundant planets in Water signs.

Abundant Mutable

With an abundance of planets in Mutable signs, you adapt easily to changing circumstances.  Mentally quick, you adapt like a chameleon to give each what they want, until you are on to the next friend or interest.  Life offers a succession of roles to play.  Skilled at diplomacy and compromise, you make a good negotiator and appear to be everyone’s friend.  You actually are other-oriented, rather than self-oriented, and can be so busy meeting others’ needs that you lack direction in your own life.  Concentrate on finding friends of true worth and value.  Be discriminating in your associations, in whom you choose to help.  The endless flow from your mind, tongue, and hands will then work to return real value to you, which is what you deserve.  You can probably only follow this advice just so far, though, because more than others the Universe sends you people in need, people for whom you are able to make a real difference.  The assistance that you provide to the powerless may actually be remembered long after your facile mental output is forgotten.  Your activities can also bring an end to institutions that have outlived their usefulness.

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 Leo

(Keynote: I WILL)

You are passionate, sincere, generous, courageous and loyal.  You may also be demanding, possessive, jealous and intolerant.  You are a champion of causes and defender of the helpless in time of need — the stuff of which heroes are made.  You resist accepting second-best of anything.  You are at your best when given dramatic license to take center-stage, with all eyes upon you.  Your word is your bond, but you can be unreasonable if things don’t go your way.  Try not to confuse the courage of your convictions with inordinate stubbornness, which is usually the source of your downfall.

Moon in Leo

(The Prominent)

Everything is a “big deal” in your life.  You expand both the negatives and positives and express yourself dramatically. You are a “head-turner,” like the attention you attract, are generous with your money and enjoy being thought of as a “big-time spender.”  Your organizational ability, coupled with your self-confidence and popularity, often places you ahead of your competition in business, though you must watch a tendency to become “bossy.”  If you are too self-indulgent, you should call upon your natural honesty and recognize it as a fault which may be difficult to overcome.

Mercury in Virgo

(The Interpreter)

You read people well and have an insight that is valuable in all types of relationships.  Your interest in health can lead towards promoting natural ways of improvement in diet and disciplined exercise.  If your efforts go unappreciated, you may become hypercritical and distance people with a superior attitude.  You are a tireless worker and once committed, will spend a lifetime at a task requiring painstaking application, which others would consider monotonous.

Venus in Leo

(The Extravagant)

Your infatuation with luxury prods you towards compulsive buying.  You enjoy lavishing expensive gifts, dining or theater-going whether you can afford it or not.  If you cannot manage the lifestyle you covet, you may try to create an illusion of opulence as a fantasy world of your own and discover gifts as a decorator or designer.  Consider finding a way to utilize your talents in some form of theater that will attract the attention and plaudits you relish.

Mars in Scorpio

(The Excessive)

Many are attracted to your powerful magnetism, but may be frightened by the intensity with which you approach life in general and your desires in particular.  You are in touch with your emotions, and may be governed by them so need discipline to succeed.  You live on a grandiose scale.  Everything is magnified by ten-plus and receives the full force of your energy until you are satisfied with your achievements.  You are an unrelenting foe and the most magnanimous of friends.

Jupiter in Capricorn

(The Traditionalist)

You may need to relax your conventionally-narrow views, to gamble now and then on human nature to prevail in the face of overwhelming obstacles.  Once you have decided to reveal yourself as the fine, understanding person you are, you should have no trouble taking your place successfully in public office, where you can lead the masses to enlightenment.

Saturn in Scorpio

(The Forceful)

The powerful image you create tempts you to thrust your ideas or will upon others, not always to their benefit — or YOURS — but just for a show of strength.  Your determination can make enemies and undermine your fine executive abilities.  Try to develop the compassion and flexibility inherent in all successful leaders.  Otherwise, your effectiveness will be limited.  You will be a champion without honor and must look to yourself for any rewards you receive.

Uranus in Sagittarius

(The Diviner)

You are amazingly accurate in forecasting events or circumstances that come about.  You have a good grasp of logic, so are unlikely to exceed your gifts, but use them to research areas that may contribute to the future of mankind. You are unconventional in your beliefs, fearless in your concepts, and may adopt philosophy rather than religion as a guideline.  You should introduce prudence into your restless nature to create wisdom you may share with others.

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 Gemini

(The Whirlwind)

You try to stay so busy that personal commitment is impossible.  If you take on more than you can handle, you cannot blame yourself for “failures.”  You feel your education is inadequate.  True communication is never one-sided.  Allow others to voice their questions and opinions while you prepare answers gleaned from the worthwhile knowledge you possess.

Planets in Aspect

Moon square Mars  (Strength:  6.61)

(The Threatened)

You are sensitive in the extreme and may fly off the handle irrationally.  Anxieties can obscure your ability to concentrate, and make you accident-prone, so extra effort towards developing a conscious awareness is advisable.  If you are a victim of insecurities, look for counseling or ways to quiet your fears that will establish a bulwark similar to that of followers of Zen Buddhism.  Retreat within to a place of tranquility until control is established and peace restored.

Moon conjunct Venus  (Strength:  5.13)

(The Reveler)

You are a party-goer, a party-giver and may exploit your social abilities in a commercial venture.  Shopping for the trappings that call attention to your good taste is a way of life.  You are usually in good spirits and good health and are depressed only when you feel neglected or unable to indulge yourself in the luxuries money can buy.  Use your talents to create beauty.  Your artistic gifts can compensate for an empty purse and bring you the praise of others to enjoy.

Mercury trine Jupiter  (Strength:  5.01)

(The Assertive)

You have big plans which you like to discuss with others.  You exchange ideas and receive the support of your friends. Once clear in your goals, you’ll have no trouble convincing others that you know what you’re talking about and should be given a chance to prove yourself.  You are an excellent salesperson or counselor. In either case, you have the attention of others who respect your opinion and enjoy from you a positive output which contributes to your success.

Sun trine Uranus  (Strength:  3.84)

(The Electrifier)

You are a motivating force, and often inspire others to follow your lead.  Never content with the “status quo,” a search for enlightenment can lead you to explore unusual ways of getting in touch with yourself.  Beware of “kooky” cults or schemes, but uplifting studies can be helpful.  One of these may be astrology.  If you are not productive, restless energy may appear as nervous disorders which can only be remedied by steps you take to restore your cosmic balance.

Venus square Mars  (Strength:  3.74)

(The Arduous)

You try too hard to secure and maintain relationships that are exciting but may be too difficult to last.  If you are not demanding, you may attract another who is, and be in constant contention with their desires.  Your attractions stem from basic creative urges, so there is a strong physical bonding between you and your partners.  Since you are very aware of your individual identity, find ways to express it without the conflicts which can disrupt your unions.

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  3.69)

(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.”

Sun square Saturn  (Strength:  3.62)

(The Hapless)

You may consider yourself “unlucky,”  because you are often thwarted in justifying your efforts to be “free.”  Your lack of energy obliges you to slog forward one step at a time, but you may stubbornly refuse to examine the real reasons for depression.  More than one crisis will trigger a necessity to crack a facade you sometimes use to disguise self-doubt.  You deserve the same happiness as others.  Don’t let self-reliant pride prevent you from asking for help, if you need it.

Sun inconjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  2.10)

(The Unaware)

Your enthusiastic plans may be thwarted because of a lack of preparation or experience.  You may overextend yourself in your hurry to expand your horizons.  Self-indulgence can bring an end to your dreams.  Over-compensation for disappointments, in the form of excesses, can result in problems with weight or addictions which require more than willpower to overcome.  Try to invite projects that demand your best in constructive action for the lasting rewards you seek.

Mercury trine Neptune  (Strength:  1.47)

(The Sentimental)

You are a romantic who enjoys fantasizing dreams.  You will not be easily discouraged if you exercise a talent for writing.  There are those who will appreciate your efforts. You can be a daydreamer, but are also in touch with reality.  Though you may dislike discipline, you are capable of using it to achieve your aims.  Because of your affinity with humanity, you may sacrifice to help others, validating the spiritual insight inherent in your sympathetic nature.

Jupiter conjunct Neptune  (Strength:  0.48)

(The Utopian)

Your compassion for others inspires you to try to perfect the world for all to enjoy.  Idealism can tempt you to take risks that may not pay off, or you may not have the means for social reform.  But, given encouragement to change, man can achieve what it is impossible for others to do for him.  Help others to their feet with dignity.  If your resources extend no farther than your arms can reach, you may still exemplify a prayer:  “Let there be peace, and let it begin with me.”

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.

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.

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

Sun trine Neptune  (Strength:  6.77)

(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:  6.17)

(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:  5.40)

(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:  5.23)

(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.

Moon square Saturn  (Strength:  4.66)

(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.

Sun opposite Pluto  (Strength:  3.92)

(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.

Moon conjunct Uranus  (Strength:  3.89)

(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.”

Mars trine Uranus  (Strength:  3.78)

(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.”

Moon opposite Mercury  (Strength:  3.38)

(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.

Mars square Neptune  (Strength:  2.92)

(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.

Mars inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.77)

(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.

Venus opposite Pluto  (Strength:  2.09)

(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.

Moon trine Mars  (Strength:  1.66)

(The Spearhead)

Your high physical energy propels you to the head of the crowd.  Whatever you do will be aggressively active, and sometimes competitive, but not necessarily combative. Relationships with others are intense, as are your feelings.  You have the strength of your convictions at all times, but rather than force them on others, will convince them to see things your way because of your inherent enthusiasm.  You are a lover of life, and life, in turn, loves you back!

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.

Sun trine Saturn  (Strength:  1.16)

(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.

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.”

Mercury square Saturn  (Strength:  0.04)

(The Immovable)

You see self-containment and a stoic ability to survive as virtues.  However, you are apt to lack communication skills which could expand your horizons and save you from feeling isolated from the friendship you crave.  Your sense of responsibility is admirable, but you cannot expect others to accept your over-critical, pessimistic attitudes, whether you mean to project them or not.  Add flexibility and a sense-of-humor for better balance in your seemingly lackluster life.

Mars inconjunct Saturn  (Strength:  0.01)

(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!”

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.
