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 Aquarius
(Keynote: I KNOW)
You are optimistic, innovative, philosophical and humane, but are capable of being eccentric, indifferent, rebellious and temperamental. You are motivated by inherent feelings that amount to enlightenment. Your interest in humanity puts you in contact with a variety of people to whom you can relate with equality. Your dispassionate nature confuses those who would form attachments. Like an astronaut, you expect your partners to respect the independence you treasure and permit the freedom your creativity demands. Ideally, you will one day contribute your special gifts to the evolution of man.
Moon in Libra
(The Dependent)
You have a burning desire to please and will go to great lengths to do so. You cultivate an image of glamour and success, are probably a compulsive buyer and enjoy wearing distinctive and expensive clothes. You attract easily, and are popular, but fickle. You may be over-critical of your partners until you realize that, because you are easily-led, you need someone to help you make decisions. You are either too lazy or insecure to try to develop much self-reliance. A strong instinct that a special relationship is “fated” may lead you to the proper person to be your life-mate.
Mercury in Capricorn
(The Logician)
You are a strategist who employs systematic methods and are seldom upset, unless your plans are disturbed. You communicate with others by getting right to the point with a minimum of wasted effort. Others may consider you sober, self-righteous and too rigid to enjoy life, but what they think of as “rigid”, you believe to be structured, “sober” as merely serious, and “self-righteousness” is your pride in accomplishments that you have earned the hard way.
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 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.
Jupiter in Taurus
(The Show-off)
You can be too extravagant because of your love of luxury, but if you choose to spend your hard-earned money, who’s to say it’s not your privilege? You can be too aggressive in getting what you want and too stubborn to change your mind after you get it. Again, since you are a super-achiever, who can criticize you for doing things your way?
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
Saturn square Uranus (Strength: 4.72)
(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 trine Mars (Strength: 4.64)
(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!
Sun square Jupiter (Strength: 3.53)
(The Pompous)
Your eye is very much on the “donut” and not on the “hole.” You are a citizen of the world and an eager learner, so benefit by extensive travel. Others are excited by your dynamic presence and what you have to say, unless you spoil your image by exaggerating reality or monopolize center stage to hear your own voice. Then, those great gulps of life you devour can distend your ego as well as your waistline and result in chronic social indigestion.
Saturn trine Neptune (Strength: 3.31)
(The Opening)
You apply yourself with persistence, determination and a conviction that, with hard work, you will succeed. You are realistic in your expectations and willing to overcome pessimism and self-doubt. At your lowest ebb, “something” will encourage you to press on. You believe you are joined by a higher force in selecting and achieving your goals and when the time is right, you will be fulfilled. It may be later than sooner, but have patience. Such faith must be rewarded.
Moon opposite Venus (Strength: 2.99)
(The Mirage)
You believe in pleasures of the moment, but must be careful that you can pay your debts “tomorrow.” You feel that you can have your own way just by being “you,” not from conceit, but that in some way you have a special birthright and the world owes you a living. Much of what you fantasize may come about because of your positive attitude of expectation, but be prepared for those times when only the sweat of your brow will produce the results you desire.
Saturn sextile Pluto (Strength: 2.98)
(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.
Mercury conjunct Mars (Strength: 2.82)
(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.
Mercury trine Jupiter (Strength: 2.80)
(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 Pluto (Strength: 2.45)
(The Success)
Your determination to succeed impresses others and attracts those who may help you. You will define your goals and examine the changes required to accomplish them at each stage of your progress. If it means becoming a “new” person, you will undergo necessary reforms and transformation. Good health accompanies your positive attitude. At one with perfect spiritual harmony, you achieve the balance necessary to realize, accept and maintain a position of prominence.
Neptune sextile Pluto (Strength: 2.33)
(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 sextile Neptune (Strength: 2.13)
(The Spiritualist)
Because your inherent beliefs tell you that mind and body are one, you will strive for perfect balance. Your low energy levels suit you for periods of meditation. As you turn inward, you may open mediumistic qualities which make you sensitive to the feelings of others and you will respond to their needs. Material blessings will never satisfy you. Follow inner urges that prompt you to reach for understanding born of your search for higher self in divine spirit.
Moon trine Mercury (Strength: 1.46)
(The Synchronizer)
You are in touch with yourself and your needs which affords you a state of balance. Because you are at peace, you are able to accomplish tasks with a minimum of bother, and express clearly and concisely so that others accept your ideas and grant your requests. You may travel or communicate with people impulsively, because “something tells you” to do so. Flashes of this same intuition are useful in divining the needs of others and fulfilling them before you are asked.
Sun opposite Saturn (Strength: 1.43)
(The Jinxed)
You may feel “unlucky” because you are engulfed by outside circumstances. It is difficult for you to express your opinions or feelings to others who neither sympathize with nor understand you. You are easily discouraged. Use your inherent honesty to separate yourself from the idea that you are being “picked on.” Communication is the key to relief from your depression. You have many fine qualities and must find a way to put them across to your oppressors.
Sun square Uranus (Strength: 0.16)
(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-d
irection until it accommodates your special cast.
Balance of Elements and Modalities
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.
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 Cardinal
With an abundance of planets in the Cardinal signs, you find it easy to function on your own as an autonomous individual. You have a pretty good grasp of how the real world works, which you may have acquired through your willingness to try new things. An active person, you find challenges stimulating. Success comes through big ventures that others are too intimidated to attempt. You would make a good entrepreneur, but look for other indications in your chart to see if you have the qualities needed to stay with a project or grow a business. You’re not really a team player. You are likely to encounter some problems in your life as a result of being so one-sidedly focused on your own goals and activities. But you are good at overcoming problems. Personal survival is important to you and you are capable of learning. You manifest your love through a lack of fear that makes the future happen.
Abundant Fixed
With an abundance of planets in Fixed signs, you have the staying power to complete a project, grow a family, or expand a business. Your strength is what friends notice most about you. You have definite values; you focus your affections on the people and things that are part of your team. Friendships formed over time are important to you. You may be found at the center of a circle of friends, a large family, a government agency, or a business. You understand the contribution that stability and security make to prosperity and growth. It throws you off-balance when friends are not as reliable as you are or when love and ideals are not part of your life. Concentrate on developing confidence in yourself, a wholesome world for your family or group, and binding others to you with love. If you have a weakness, it is trouble changing or listening when people tell you a better way to do things. You can handle this weakness by empowering your team, as among them will be individuals who are good at reacting to a constantly changing world.
Lack of Mutable
With a lack of planets in the Mutable signs, you probably go your own way in life without caring too much what other people think. You know what you want and see little need to compromise. You lack flexibility and adaptability. You do best when you can establish a pace and stick to it. Leave those sports and activities that require fast reactions and adaptability to others.
Sometimes you say things that offend others, because you are not especially concerned with the feelings or opinions of others. In fact, you sometimes appall your friends with your single-mindededness and lack of sensitivity. Because of your individuality, people who are attracted to change and variety may find you stimulating at first, but after a while might find your predictability to be boring. This is unlikely to keep you from pursuing your path. Your path involves being yourself and changing the world. Just don’t insist that others be like you.
A lack of planets in the Mutable signs can be offset by a Mutable sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the Cadent houses.
