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
Sagittarius Ascendant
(The Forthright)
Your most outstanding quality is your cheerfulness, even in the face of adversity. Your friendly grin is always ready, open, and happily infectious. You think and speak rapidly. It’s hard to stay angry with you, since your charm outweighs your lack of diplomacy, but the bluntness of your words can be detrimental to your success. Try to practice patience, tact and discretion, as in the axiom: “If you can’t say anything worthwhile or pleasant, don’t say it at all!”
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.
Sun in the Third House
(The Neighbor)
You are constantly on-the-go and may talk “off the top of your head” — but you WILL talk. You sometimes enjoy gossiping, because an interaction with people is paramount in your life. Others may not understand your need for habitual conversation, but since you are clever and bright, you are probably well-liked. You excel in writing or debating and are always interested in learning something new. Your suitcase is half-packed and ready for spur-of-the moment travel. If you develop the persistence to complete half the projects you begin, you can count on success as a result of your efforts.
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.
Moon in the Twelfth House
(The Isolationist)
You may be plagued by psychological problems originating with a mother-figure. You are hard on yourself and assume an oppressive responsibility for self-analysis because it is difficult for others to draw you out. Your friends will not understand your moods nor the fact that you need to call upon restorative powers provided only by seclusion. Depend on spiritual trust and your strong intuition to reveal what is demanded of you and how best to make payment.
Mercury in Aquarius
(The Capricious)
You may have the inventive qualities of an Edison or an Einstein, but instead of being an “egghead” may end with “egg on your face.” You look towards tomorrow, but seldom at yesterday, where you might profit from experience. You are often seen as “unfeeling” because you neglect loved ones in taking the freedom to be a friend to others. Include those closest to you in your aspirations. They admire your unusual gifts and offer the support you need for success.
Mercury in the Third House
(The Student)
Little escapes your notice. Your acute awareness, coupled with intuitive flashes, gives you an instant rapport with those you contact. You have a lively imagination, and an interest in education and love of words fits you for a career in journalism or some type of public communication. Try not to let restlessness or impatience dilute your ability to present all sides of a picture in honest reporting, which is the stuff from which history is documented.
Venus in Pisces
(The Compassionate)
You often realize the needs of others before they ask your help and are on hand to volunteer your time, money and services for those less fortunate than yourself. Emotions overrule your practicality in most cases and sentimental compassion may override personal relationships. If you are “unlucky” in love, perhaps you should not sacrifice it on the altar of public charity, but also acknowledge the needs of those who care for you and deserve consideration.
Venus in the Third House
(The Salesman)
Identification with siblings can improve the security and structure you need to overcome an inherent restlessness. It is essential to settle down and apply yourself. Acquire skills which will enhance natural talents of communication. “Sweet talking” may become a way of life. With proper channeling it may lead to a successful and lucrative career in anything from teaching to television. You can influence a world waiting with open ears for what you have to say.
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 First House
(The General)
You’ll be aware from the time you’re born of the tremendous power you hold. No task is too great for your dynamic energy to challenge. However, before congratulating yourself, you must recognize you are impulsive, and sometimes lack the patience to finish what you start. Your enormous ego drive will demand you assume responsibility for the actions in your life. Slow down long enough to ask: “How will my choices affect others? Is the result worth the effort?”
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 Fourth House
(The Realtor)
You may become a successful broker because your own love of home and family represents the peace and security you crave. Your home is your castle and reflects your passion for luxury. You may treasure sentimental objects from childhood which represent familiar surroundings you have come to cherish. Like Scarlett O’Hara, your strength is in the land.
Saturn in Cancer
(The Runner)
You change your environment constantly in the hope of finding the parental love and support you craved in childhood. New environments can never replace deeply-ingrained emotions that refuse to die. Put away “childish things.” Remember them lovingly, and not with sadness that they are no longer valid. In assuming adult responsibility, you will establish a new rapport with comforting flesh — that of creating your own home and family, which is more fulfilling, still.
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 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.
Uranus in the Eleventh House
(The Fireball)
Everyone you meet is a potential friend. You get along well with groups, but set your own standards and seldom give in to peer pressure, so it is up to others to march to your special beat. You attract beggars as well as kings, and see the value in both. Others may not share your unconventional views, so though you have a constant flow of people traveling through your life, you have few who are close to you. Those YOU consider as friends, are “choice!”
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.
Neptune in the Twelfth House
(The Melancholy)
You may wish you were not so “different” from others. A desire for seclusion links you to those who understand the rhythm of our universe and feel rebellion against the timpani of life. Look for kindred souls in studies of psychic sciences or spiritual development. If you have talent, you may express in an art form; then learn that “different” is often another word for “gifted” and like a moth emerging from a cocoon, you are ready to spread your wings and fly.
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.
Pluto in the Tenth House
(The Super-Achiever)
Never mind if your foresight is not as good as your hindsight! You learn through experience and must explore a whole spectrum before making solid decisions that will stick. All knowledge you acquire can be utilized. Try to dodge the power plays you seem to invite and resist achieving success at a price to others. Yours is always a “never say die” attitude. Once you find your true calling, nothing much can keep you from the success you deserve.
Virgo Midheaven
You may have several careers in your life, as this Midheaven placement changes careers easily. In the variety of your career activities you tend to be something of a Renaissance man or woman. You master a job through detailed application and critical thinking. Your willingness to work long hours and attend to details makes you an excellent employee. In the course of your career you may develop exceptional reasoning powers. Your power of analysis makes you good at finding and repairing flaws. It also makes you a discriminating buyer or shopper.
You see yourself as being of service to mankind. Health issues may be important in some way to your career. Something of a perfectionist in your work, you can be hard on others as well as on yourself. When under stress, your discriminating nature can become overly harsh, pessimistic, and fault-finding. You may vacillate between careers or become a worrying hypochondriac. As you work to bring order to the world, you become able to illuminate the choices that others have before them. This is how you make your best contribution.
Occupations consistent with your detail style of work include clerical or literary worker, secretary, librarian, physician or health worker, accountant, bookkeeper, cleaner, manager, critic, buyer, inspector, teacher, nutritionist, repairman, systems programmer, stockbroker, quality assurance expert, consultant, or any fine craft. 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 Mercury, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.
North Node in Sagittarius
(The Fence Sitter)
You are afraid to make choices that may put you in the wrong. Until you voice an opinion or convictions that are yours alone, you will not have earned the independence you desire. Experience teaches that conflict often results from indifference. Restore others’ confidence by repairing breaks in links of faith with the solder of concern and wisdom.
North Node in the Twelfth House
(The Neglected)
You may feel your high ideals set you apart, but are often aware that you are part of struggling humanity. If you are unappreciated, you look inward for answers, and may find a morsel of truth. But, life requires full participation. In nurturing others, you will realize that we are all one and when the bell tolls, it does, indeed, “toll for thee!”
Planets in Aspect
Moon square Mercury (Strength: 5.83)
(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.
Mars square Pluto (Strength: 5.33)
(The Imperious)
You may trip over your ego as you determine your goals and act in your own behalf to the exclusion of others. You are aware of strength and unusual power to confront the world, but if you force your way rather than prove your worth, you are sure to attract power struggles which will impede your progress. Question your values in your rise to success to discover whether you are acting and reacting from vanity or a genuine desire to improve your position through hard work.
Moon trine Jupiter (Strength: 2.68)
(The Popular)
Others may regard you as “lucky,” “optimistic, “cheerful” and “enthusiastic”, all of which accurately describes your sunny disposition and lively attitude. You are not unrealistic, but believe in yourself and accept whatever challenges or blessings “fate” deals you as an interesting part of life. Your many friends admire your ability to find a positive side to almost any problem. You have no peer when the ballots are in for “the most likely to succeed.”
Sun inconjunct Saturn (Strength: 2.63)
(The Learner)
You, of all people, can profit from this usually self-defeating aspect, if only you make an effort to overcome your propensity for self-pity. The attitude you project is all-important if you expect partners to support your ideas. Your depressions can bring others down, too. Concentrate on getting the inner self out of the way so you can contribute the practical results of lessons you have learned the hard way to a world in need of your innate qualities of practicality.
Mars opposite Saturn (Strength: 2.52)
(The Retiring)
You stay in the background, so it is difficult to receive the full rewards of your efforts. Your achievements are hard-won, but you may not receive the credit you deserve. Your feelings are deep, but you may conceal them, to your detriment. Vent your frustrations by calling attention to merited rewards. If you don’t appreciate yourself, few others will. This is one time it is very right to “toot your own horn” and justify yourself openly, if the need arises.
Venus trine Uranus (Strength: 2.43)
(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.
Sun sextile Neptune (Strength: 1.94)
(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.
Neptune sextile Pluto (Strength: 1.92)
(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: 1.85)
(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.
Neptune conjunct North Node (Strength: 1.51)
(The Imaginative)
You sometimes prefer the images you create to the real world. You are seldom lonely, since you enjoy the playmates of your fancy. You are spiritual in nature but may be fascinated by sects or cults which appeal to your dark side. Be mindful of your addictive personality, and aware that you can be led from materiality into impractical — even dangerous — ways that destroy your potential for developing the special, sensitive, creative person you are.
Sun trine Pluto (Strength: 1.48)
(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.
Saturn inconjunct Neptune (Strength: 1.32)
(The Vulnerable)
You may live in a half-world between reality and illusion. You take discouragement to heart, failing to realize that your foundations are apt to crumble because others may not understand you and lack the desire to support you. You may become distracted from real purpose by daydreams which stem from wishful thinking. Adequate preparation and practical application are necessary if you are to claim the gold at the end of your rainbows.
Neptune conjunct Ascendant (Strength: 1.24)
(The Wistful)
You are imaginative, spiritual, intuitive and romantic. With early guidance, you can develop the practicality to make your wishes come true. You are intelligent and ambitious, but must acknowledge the difference between reason and fantasy to balance your scales. Your special gifts help others to enjoy dreams they dare not dream, appreciate your compassion and admire your idealistic nature. You can soften the harsh light of reality, rather than retire into the shadows of illusion.
Venus square Neptune (Strength: 0.70)
(The Hero-worshiper)
Your sense of the dramatic and a bent towards illusion can lead you to project more into a relationship than exists. You may fasten your affections on a rich or famous person. Or, you may live beyond your means keeping up with the “Joneses.” Your refusal to accept reality can reduce you to financial or emotional bankruptcy if you insist on living on fantasy. Your lively imagination can bring you admiration for creative efforts, if you turn your energy into developing them.
Venus sextile Mars (Strength: 0.26)
(The Flirt)
You are a fun-lover and like to be where the people are. Most will appreciate your effervescent personality and delight in your company. You are usually ready for anything social and don’t mind paying your way. In relationships, you expect a 50-50 “give and take” balance. You are attracted to and know how to call yourself to the attention of the opposite sex at an early age. In your later years, you will still “have what it takes” to indulge your passion for romance.
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.
Lack of Earth
You may be so focused on the “bigger picture” that you have difficulty managing the many details of life. Balancing your checkbook or leaving your bedroom clean may seem beyond your abilities. Other tasks may be important, but you find it hard to concentrate long enough to complete them. Knowing your own lack of concentration and self-discipline, you may cling to established routines because you know that you are able to do important things through force of habit. If you do not flit from job to job, you could hold onto a job or a relationship for too long because you do not trust that you will be secure without it. Your lack of real world perspective may make it hard for you to distinguish that which really matters from that which is unimportant, so that you sometimes focus on small things while leaving the really big things undone. You may say that you care about money, but unless you have abundant planets in the houses of Substance, you will not execute a detailed plan to get it. If you can avoid driving them crazy, enlist the help of those more grounded than yourself in order to turn your inspirations into reality.
A lack of planets in Earth signs can be offset by an Earth sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Substance.
Lack of Fire
You are willing to let flashier individuals take center-stage and lead the way. You are probably unenthusiastic about change and are passive when it comes to creating change through leadership. You may be aggressive in a defensive way, but lack the self-confidence to take the offensive. Lacking the impulsiveness of Fire, you are more likely to be a careful worker and a reliable mate, though you could stand to be less detached and more personally involved with your spouse and family.
A lack of planets in Fire signs can be offset by a Fire sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Life.
Abundant Relationships
With abundant planets in these houses, relationships and communications with others are likely to be central to your life. You can help others by exchanging ideas and making connections between people. You will probably maintain active contact with a wide circle of relatives, friends and acquaintances. You keep abreast of new information via various media and your friends.
Abundant Endings
With abundant planets in the houses of endings, you are probably sensitive, moody, and introspective. You are not afraid to show your feelings and make an empathetic listener to the problems and feelings of others. You have been around the track enough yourself to sense what others are going through and to show that you care. You are not the most intellectual or practical person. You can be easily swayed by an appeal to your emotions.
Lack of Substance
You are not the most grounded or practical person. The rules of this material world are not well known to you. Others may admire your dreams, but they could be impossible dreams. You may find it difficult to choose, plan, and work towards a career or vocation.
A lack of planets in the houses of Substance can be offset by abundant planets in Earth signs.
Lack of Life
You could have difficulty envisioning or planning for the future. You are likely to accept the status quo, living in the past and present, but not actively striving to create the future. Lacking your own passionate goals, you are more likely to be a follower than a leader.
A lack of planets in the houses of Life can be offset by abundant planets in Fire signs.
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.
Abundant Cadent
An abundance of planets in the cadent houses helps to make you versatile and adaptable. You are flexible in your plans, adapting easily to changes or to the people whom you meet. You may travel a lot or move frequently. You are a good listener and communicator. You will use your mind a lot or frequently spend time alone during your life.
Lack of Succedent
A lack of planets in succedent houses gives you a certain emotional detachment. You do not pay much attention to the pleasures of the body or to cultivating a particular group of friends. Enjoying life is not the most important thing to you. You act not on the basis of feeling or principle, but from necessity. You tend to be a restless wanderer of either the world or the mind.
A lack of planets in the Succedent houses can be offset by abundant planets in the Fixed signs.
