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 Cancer

 

(Keynote: I FEEL)

 

You are sensitive, nurturing, devoted and caring, but can be moody, petulant, over-emotional and unforgiving.  Your attachment to the home stems from an allegiance to a mother-figure.  Your interest in food may extend to gourmet cooking as a hobby or a career.  You are an excellent business person, with a shrewd and logical view, but tend to keep things to yourself, which is not always wise.  If you have no outlet for your feelings, you may make yourself the victim of digestive ills, or prolonged seclusion may cost you the friendship of those who represent security in your life.

 

 

 

Moon in Pisces

 

(The Wishful)

 

You go with your emotions and change your desires from moment to moment, but are always hopeful for the future.  You are sensitive and easily discouraged by rebuffs; your potent imagination makes you susceptible to imagined hurts and slights.  You may adopt food or fantasies as a panacea for disappointments in the love and understanding that are as important to you as breathing.  Look for solid ground on which to stand.  You can build a life that is productive and pleasurable by giving your artistic talents commercial expression to bolster your ego as well as your purse.

 

 

Mercury in Leo

 

(The Dramatist)

 

You are highly emotional and speak forcefully; your words may not always be tactful, but they do have an impact.  You’re generous with advice, which is usually good and well-taken. Your gift of creativity may be shared and enjoyed by others who appreciate you.  No party is complete without you, but your famous negative qualities of conceit and arrogance may make you an unwelcome guest.  Listen to your keen intuition, which will tell you when it’s time to go home.

 

 

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 Aries

 

(The Fire-walker)

 

It is important to find productive ways of using your tremendous energies.  You are as much a force for destruction as you are for the preservation of the ethics and ideals you stand for.  Your aggressiveness is a two-edged sword that may turn against you if you use it impulsively or to “bully” those who might otherwise willingly follow your lead.   You may be “number one”, but must decide whether you will be remembered as a valiant leader or an ignoble oppressor.

 

 

Jupiter in Libra

 

(The Goddess)

 

Use your fairy gifts of beauty, charm, and grace wisely.  Your artistic talents may bring you a prominent place in the public eye.  Partners are all-important.  You extend yourself to assure that you are worthy of them.  You may fulfill your dearest wish that the world will be a happier place and its citizens find contentment because you have walked among them.

 

 

Saturn in 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 Leo

 

(The Trend-setter)

 

You are first to volunteer, to explore, to introduce, to accept and to BE first in everything.  You enjoy standing in the limelight as someone creatively innovative.  But, you will not be content to perform; you are driven to take your place in an executive position that will distinguish you from your peers.  You attract off-beat people and situations.  Be sure to know who you are inviting into your life to avoid the unhappy pitfalls of impulsively-formed alliances.

 

 

Neptune in Scorpio

 

(The Initiator)

 

You take great delight in other people’s secrets and may use them to advantage. If you have information that needs disclosure for the benefit of others, you may expose it in a subtle, but effective way.  You may also use your knowledge to promote a principle or public figures while working behind the scenes.  A leaning towards self-indulgence needs careful monitoring so that your strength is not used in abusive ways, but as a benefactor who prefers to remain anonymous.

 

 

Pluto in Virgo

 

(The Restorers)

 

You have a rare opportunity of renovating the world in carefully-structured channels when the environment seems at its lowest ebb.  Drugs, disease, addictions and crime will no longer be tolerated.  You will have a major part in seeing that justice is done.  Law-makers, and those who execute the law will be among your peers, as well as some who are willing to educate those who truly desire self-improvement as their contribution to elevate mankind.

 

 

North Node in 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

 

Mars trine Saturn  (Strength:  5.52)

 

(The Pharaoh)

 

You are conscientious to a fault and put your energies into structures that will last.  No task seems too difficult.  You may set about early to build your monument, when your confidence is in the abilities of others rather than yourself. Take things slowly and without being overbearing or too forceful in your opinions or demands.  You may be pleased with quality rather than the size of your accomplishments and appreciative of experiences gathered in achieving your goals.

 

 

Mercury square Neptune  (Strength:  5.37)

 

(The Perplexed)

 

You dream of fairy-tale romances, but be careful not to put on pedestals those who don’t deserve your consideration. You will come to see they have feet of clay, and become disillusioned.  If you live in a dream world, you can be deceived.  Or, you may use others to achieve your means in an underhanded manner.  Maintain your integrity and insist on fact over fantasy.  Avoid confusion that could deny success.  Don’t forego your chance at a productively rewarding life.

 

 

Sun trine Moon  (Strength:  4.54)

 

(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.

 

 

Mars opposite Jupiter  (Strength:  4.13)

 

(The Affected)

 

You often try to impress others with your abilities, which can come off as idle boasting or narcissism.  Or, you may feel discriminated against, which can be the result of selfishly pursuing your aims over the feelings of others.  You sometimes respond to promises of extravagant rewards which may not materialize and tend to overreact emotionally, which is a sure way to lose a battle.  Utilize your positive energy and assert your independence to make things happen “your way.”

 

 

Venus sextile Uranus  (Strength:  2.94)

 

(The Multi-faceted)

 

You are constantly developing new sides to your personality, which makes it easy to fit into any group.  You are productively creative and may show an unusual interest in astrology, but lack the discipline necessary to study the basic knowledge necessary to use it as a skill.  Relationships may be difficult because of your desire for freedom as an individual.  Each new partner offers the variety you crave and revolutionizes your life by enhancing your understanding.

 

 

Jupiter sextile Saturn  (Strength:  2.60)

 

(The Merger)

 

You have the best of both worlds as you fuse your dreams with practicality to fulfill them.  You accurately plan your growth to fit within sensible structures which are designed to expand as you watch your ambitions fulfilled.  You are an apt student who never tires of learning experiences that keep your life from becoming static.  You do not consider organization as limitation, and have the patience to see things through with satisfying results and justifiable pride as your rewards.

 

 

Moon square Saturn  (Strength:  2.56)

 

(The Lonely)

 

You may be depressed because you feel isolated and take the blame for your plight, but not know how to solve the problem. “Burying” yourself in work or other distractions is not going to satisfy you.  Relationships often mean chancing rejection, but if you hesitate to brave a possible loss of pride, you will also deny an opportunity for fulfillment.  By repressing feelings, you may find that you are denying expressions which can then emerge in a destructive way.

 

 

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  2.47)

 

(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.”

 

 

Neptune conjunct North Node  (Strength:  1.89)

 

(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.

 

 

Moon square Venus  (Strength:  1.89)

 

(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 consider entering a commitment.

 

 

Sun square Mars  (Strength:  0.57)

 

(The Outraged)

 

It is difficult for you to see a need for concession.  You have no patience with another’s input when you are confident you are right.  You may work harder than others and your ego demands you receive full credit.  If denied or opposed, your fiery reactions may eclipse the rewards you have earned.  By learning that compromise is the blending of positive energies, you employ the wisdom of a respected master instead of the mandates of a tyrant welcomed by none.

 

 

Jupiter conjunct North Node  (Strength:  0.30)

 

(The Jovial)

 

You make an indelible imprint upon your friends with your optimism, generosity and compassionate nature.  Your love of a good time and tendency to be immoderate can emphasize the negative side of your character.  You may gamble impulsively instead of taking a calculated risk or fail to listen to good advice because of your pride or vanity.  Even then, you will attract those who are drawn to the warmth of your disposition and t

he kind intent that motivates your good works.

 

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 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 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.
