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 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.
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.
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 Sagittarius
(The Philosopher)
You are a student of life and gain your highest learning through experience, but can also expand your knowledge in metaphysical studies. Your optimism and faith in humanity make you responsible for lighting and passing an eternal flame of wisdom to successive generations, where it will multiply a thousand times with every life it touches.
Saturn in Taurus
(The Dejected)
Frugality is against your nature, but you feel a need to “pinch pennies” which can earn you a reputation for being “tight.” You may be unduly concerned over finances and possessions. Love is also a part of the security you crave. Learn to accept losses that everyone experiences from time to time. You should be able to acquire enough material means to alleviate your fears and enjoy the caring relationships essential to your well-being.
Uranus in Libra
(The Bohemian)
You have artistic talent and appreciate modern, as well as traditional forms. You are intelligent, ambitious and determined, but may change your goals too often. Your creative imagination and intuitive gifts blend well. Relationships are trying, as you choose unlikely companions. You make enemies because of unusual ideas, independence and your caustic wit. Once your efforts are channeled, you may attract opportunities that will lead to the success you have dreamed of.
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 Aquarius
(The Arrogant)
You demand center stage, but are disappointed if there is little applause for your flamboyant performance. As a member of the audience, you must cheer others for their efforts. With a dual perspective, you may realize that you are part of a larger design, devoid of ego or self-aggrandizement. Release your humanitarian instincts to enjoy the Big Show.
Planets in Aspect
Mercury conjunct North Node (Strength: 5.49)
(The Hurdler)
You rush through life, but manage time to enjoy its pleasures. Your spirit of adventure takes you traveling at a moment’s notice. You make snap decisions and are amazingly accurate because you get to the heart of a subject without wasting time. Your quick wit and sparkling dialogue make you popular, but you may acquire too many friends to focus on one. If you spread yourself too thin, you could invite serious nervous problems to spoil your fascinating life.
Sun trine Moon (Strength: 4.72)
(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.
Saturn trine Pluto (Strength: 3.83)
(The Conqueror)
You are a formidable force in the universe because of your intense desire to succeed, if it takes you forever to do so. You are well-structured and informed. You know where you are going and precisely how to get there, without cutting corners but with little wasted motion. Others note your efficiency and appreciate your efforts with resultant rewards. You are self-aware and are always willing to do whatever it takes for understanding and overall improvement.
Jupiter square Pluto (Strength: 3.78)
(The Despot)
You are almost certain to evoke the criticism of others and run into power plays because they feel threatened by your obsession with success. If you are sure of your ground, you will defend your principles and convictions with all your might, but must first discern if you are right and can prove yourself and your ideals to all parties. If you wish to lead others and gain their respect, you must examine yourself thoroughly to determine if you are above reproach.
Sun trine Uranus (Strength: 3.52)
(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.
Mercury sextile Neptune (Strength: 3.29)
(The Insightful)
Inner perception works to your advantage when negotiating with those who are usually difficult to fathom. You “feel” more than “comprehend,” so can often satisfy the needs of others that are overlooked by those who deal strictly with reality. If you successfully balance your understanding of spiritual and material values, you can share your knowledge with others and encourage them to develop their potential on a higher level than many would consider practical.
Jupiter inconjunct Saturn (Strength: 2.94)
(The Waverer)
Unwillingness to accept half-way measures may result in ambivalence. You tend to blow “hot or cold,” and be overboard or strictly reserved in opinions and actions. Others are unsure of your intentions. You may also experience extremes in the way others treat you. Being too set in your ways can result in holdups or stoppage of your best-laid plans, or you may act in haste and have second-thoughts too late to rectify your recklessness. Walk a middle-road to achieve success.
Mars trine Jupiter (Strength: 2.43)
(The Positive)
You have a nearly-perfect balance between timing and action, which means that you see very clearly what must be done and do it! Because of your optimism, you easily gain the confidence of others. You are ambitious within reason and self-sufficient enough to take responsibility. In disputes, you often look at the larger picture, convince others of your good intentions and regardless of results, enhance your image of good sportsmanship, which earns you additional respect.
Mercury trine Pluto (Strength: 2.10)
(The Novice)
You view yourself as a perpetual student of life, an apprentice who has much to learn, so will attract those who can increase your knowledge. Your interest may include studies of self-enlightenment, such as psychology, psychotherapy or metaphysical sciences. You will concentrate on that to which you feel drawn or “called,” and at which you prove most adept. Eventually, you may share your knowledge, but only when you feel worthy of the universal degree of “Master.”
Moon conjunct Uranus (Strength: 1.24)
(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.”
Neptune sextile Pluto (Strength: 0.81)
(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 opposite Neptune (Strength: 0.64)
(The Conflict)
You may be deprived of a firm foundation early, which encourages inner doubts and insecurities as you mature. Avoid unnecessary self-blame, but assume responsibility for your thoughts and actions. You are not being “picked on,” — only trying to discover who you are and how you fit into the scheme of things. Eventually, you may find that “street-smarts” can be more practical than “book-learning.” Try to blend the best of both to gain self-confidence and assure success.
Moon trine Mercury (Strength: 0.20)
(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.
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.
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 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.
