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

 

 

Aquarius Ascendant

 

(The Oracle)

 

Your distinctive features are your eyes, sometimes the color of the sea, the sky, or both — one is never sure which.  You are a one-of-a-kind person in touch with “something” that gives you special insights into “tomorrow.”  You don’t ask to be understood, but need freedom to explore the horizon. Problems occur in avoiding commitment.  You cannot get along without people, since you would have no way to express the compassion you feel for all of earth’s creatures.

 

 

 

Sun in Taurus

 

(Keynote: I OWN)

 

You have deep material and spiritual concerns and are patient, kind, romantic and firm in your resolves.  You are also capable of being stubborn, unyielding, self-indulgent, possessive and jealous.  You enjoy tangibles that have weight and intrinsic worth, and display your assets and achievements prominently.  Your aesthetic hunger makes you a patron of the arts.  You will forgive, but not forget an injustice.  A need for security can override your integrity, but you will defend your means to achieve an end because you cannot accept yourself if others find you wanting.

 

 

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 Taurus

 

(The Conservative)

 

Your emotions are stable, giving you a positive outlook and a belief that you are responsible for your own happiness.  You are ambitiously-materialistic and like to associate with successful people.  You have a good rapport with most women.  You probably have a pleasant speaking or singing voice, which you may utilize in a career, but must be careful of infections or tensions which can produce serious throat problems.  This is particularly true if you encounter rebuffs, since you tend to be possessive and do not take rejection well.  You may express suppressed frustrations on a physical plane.

 

 

Moon in the Fourth House

 

(The Fledgling)

 

Early influences in the home, particularly that of the mother, will remain with you.  Negative input will cause you to harbor resentment against authority figures.   You have the ability to turn it into something positive as you grow in spirit.  If your childhood examples are positive, you will use them to guide yourself and others throughout your life.  This is the most impressionable placement in a natal chart for the moon and the lessons learned will never be forgotten.

 

 

Mercury in Gemini

 

(The Versatile)

 

Your geniality plus a sense-of-humor contributes to social graces that make you a welcome addition to any group.  Your lack of patience encourages you to store trivia instead of knowledge, while limited concentration makes you an uncertain student.  You usually accept people at face value; since you are more interested in quantity rather than the quality of companions, you enjoy changing relationships often, but pride yourself on “never losing a friend.”

 

 

Mercury in the Fourth House

 

(The Librarian)

 

You are most comfortable in familiar surroundings.  Parental attachments may delay your “leaving the nest” to be on your own.  Your home may be your office, or you see your office as a “second home.”  Though an avid reader, you seldom share the wealth of your fine mind.  In games of strategy you have no peer.  You have much to offer.  Expand your horizons.  Let others begin to know you.  You can maintain privacy, but invite the world to beat a path to your door.

 

 

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 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 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!”

 

 

Mars in the Sixth House

 

(The Team Captain)

 

You are impatient to achieve success.  You identify with any project personally, so always do your best.  As a team member, you may become frustrated if things don’t go your way. In charge, you expect your workers to share your enthusiasm and put forth the same effort you expend, but will demand the lion’s share of credit.  Add the respect of your followers to your laurels by sharing the rewards of your labor.  A demanding employer may also be a generous friend.

 

 

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?

 

 

Jupiter in the Third House

 

(The Big Brother)

 

You’re always available to entertain or take care of your siblings.  It’s hard for you to turn anybody down.  But, you may take on more than you can handle.  Dependents can become a burden that limits your chances to expand your own horizons. Take your place as a citizen in a tired world ready to welcome your gift of universal friendship.

 

 

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 Sixth House

 

(The Wage-slave)

 

You will work very hard, are responsible, and follow orders to the letter.  You try to finish what you start. However, you don’t always get along with your co-workers, who see you as a threat to their proficiency and refuse to share your tasks.  You may feel isolated and assume extra duties until your job becomes drudgery.  For you, the reward of work is in the work itself.  If that isn’t enough, find ways to share your pride in achievement with others.

 

 

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 Ninth House

 

(The Explorer)

 

The world is your playground.  You may study abroad, have a facility for languages and are influenced by the cultures you touch.   However, your interests may be scattered, rather than diversified, and if you take on too much, your health and ability to follow through may suffer.  Set definite goals, channel your energies, and like Marco Polo, you can contribute your most exotic and useful discoveries to mankind, bringing civilizations closer together.

 

 

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 Eleventh House

 

(The Optimist)

 

You don’t believe in “impossible” dreams, look for some good in every situation and try to uncover the best in people. You enter each relationship with new hope, and give everyone the benefit of the doubt.  Possibly, past disappointments are the result of wishful thinking, when you did most of the giving.  Be sure that the friends you choose are worthy of your time.  Otherwise, you will set yourself up to be deceived by a generous heart, which you give so freely.

 

 

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 Ninth House

 

(Don Quixote)

 

Much of your life will be spent in searching for your higher self.  You may be obsessed with a quest for knowledge, that often seems elusive and abstract.  Since nothing superficial will satisfy you, you may delve deeply into philosophy.  If you find some answers, you may try to convince others of their truth.  Avoid becoming fanatical about your discoveries and you may, indeed, find true enlightenment or become active in transforming a decadent society.

 

 

Scorpio Midheaven

 

You will do well in a career which involves your ability to feel out and involve others in a collaborative venture.  You are emotionally intuitive, both about potential partners and about the direction of society as a whole, so that you can speak what people are feeling.  You yourself may have gone through deep transformations connected to traumatic events.  You are comfortable reaching down into the depths of any subject and so make a good researcher or investigator.  You are happiest in an occupation which allows you to explore and produce constructive results.  Your strength may involve you in a power struggle with authorities until you can achieve a compromise.  Your commitment is such that you make a dangerous enemy.  Some people with this placement are so inflexible that they stay with a job that they hate.

 

Power and control will be issues in your life.  You have the ability to coordinate the efforts of others in teamwork, handling power tactfully and with concern for the rights of others.  Work with others for transformation and improvement, as opposed to maintenance of the status quo, and you will enjoy great success.  Selfishness, ruthlessness, and overkill are the negative possibilities of this placement.  Try to spread both the effort and the benefits to others.

 

Occupations consistent with your intense style of work include investigator, researcher, critic, engineer, programmer, mechanic, contractor, wrecker, exterminator, dramatic writer or poet,  sex therapist, tailor, musician, entrepreneur, government or large company worker, surgeon, chemist, pharmacist, detective, psychologist, mortician, insurance actuary, artist, or the military.  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 Pluto, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

North Node in Scorpio

 

(The Transformer)

 

Your stubbornness will hold you back from chances to grow and achieve.  What you value as power may only be the strength to survive the turmoil you create.  With you, it’s “all or nothing” so you must watch the demise of invalid ideas, jobs, relationships, beliefs or conditions before experiencing the regeneration necessary for the fulfillment you feel is due.

 

 

North Node in the Tenth House

 

(The Oppressed)

 

You may or may not resent heavy obligations forced on you by family demands at an early age.  Yet, as you grow, you will find you INVITE the problems of others, and each you solve helps you mature into a worthwhile human being.  No one is better equipped than you to handle whatever you must.  Savor your strength and think what you might have become without it.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Sun conjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  9.04)

 

(The Blithe Spirit)

 

Your idealism makes every day a new adventure waiting to happen.  If there are obstacles, you ride over them, reasoning that “everything happens for the best.”  You are an eternal optimist, but if your enthusiasm out-weighs practicality, you can expand your goals right into bankruptcy.  Worse, you may be stubbornly over-confident and take others with you. Moderation is the key to your success, but you may see it as a “wet-blanket” dousing that spoils your fun.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  6.34)

 

(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.

 

 

Venus square Saturn  (Strength:  5.61)

 

(The Rigid)

 

You expect relationships to conform to your standards, which can make a bonding permanent but sacrifice the interaction of stimulation and growth.  In business or personal partnerships, it is impossible to hold a line that is altogether unbending and expect everyone to be happy within its perimeters.  Communication is vital to your unions to find ways to endure that will not make you feel isolated or alone, even though you are bound to one another.

 

 

Jupiter opposite Uranus  (Strength:  3.93)

 

(The Roller Coaster)

 

There is likely to be more “roll” than “coast” in your life and it is up to you to develop the ability to go with the flow of things beyond your control.  What may happen when unexpected challenges occur is that a need for independence is called to your attention.  If you resist change, you may be “stuck” with restrictions that limit your growth.  Opportunity for expansion can allow the shedding of your burdens in trade for a new start without old hindrances to hamper you.

 

 

Midheaven conjunct North Node  (Strength:  3.57)

 

(The Higher Self)

 

You feel blessed with a quality of greatness that can lead to spiritual as well as material fulfillment.  Your strong sense of family responsibility extends to the universe. Ambition has little to do with the rocks you will climb on your way to success.  Try to remember your expectations are on a pedestal, bathed in the light of wisdom.  Your goal requires hard work, but also complete and abiding faith that you will one day be worthy to claim it as your own.

 

 

Sun opposite Uranus  (Strength:  3.15)

 

(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.

 

 

Jupiter inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.70)

 

(The Moralizer)

 

You try to impress others that you know best.  Some will buy your extravagant promises of reform, and you may act as a guru or convert them to what you consider a superior way of thinking.  You cannot always afford to pay your way, and your excessiveness can prove costly to those who support you.  If you find it necessary to adopt a role of humility, consider that humility combined with learning is often valuable to produce the wisdom or balance you may still lack as a teacher.

 

 

Moon inconjunct Neptune  (Strength:  1.70)

 

(The Impractical)

 

You should sort things out with an eye to the future, instead of accepting whatever works at the moment.  Extremely sensitive, you are also an escapist and must watch what you ingest as panaceas, to avoid serious illness or addiction to hallucinatory substances.  Improper diet can contribute to digestive problems.  You dislike restriction, but must try to believe in yourself and apply necessary self-discipline to overcome your confusion and prove your reliability and worth.

 

 

Sun conjunct Moon  (Strength:  1.15)

 

(The Equalizer)

 

You are very aware of your feelings.  If there is a conflict in what you “can” or “should” do as opposed to what you would “like” to do, you must question the reasons for difference.  If not, suppressed emotions will surface, making you touchy and irritable or withdrawn and depressed.  Once you confront your difficulties, you will be able to relate your conscious actions to subconscious demands and take charge of your life in a manner entirely comfortable with your being.

 

 

Mercury sextile Saturn  (Strength:  1.00)

 

(The Politic)

 

Your good judgment and a sense of reality keeps you in balance with your needs and how best to improve qualities of decency and decorum in yourself and others.  You are an exacting teacher with a good foundation in which experience, as well as classroom lessons plays a major part.  You have practical advice for those who ask your help.  Still, you can feel lonely if you restrict friendships to business.  Allow time for relaxation and the self-indulgence you deserve.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Neptune  (Strength:  0.53)

 

(The Disbeliever)

 

You are like a sleepwalker, moving through life in a dreamlike state.  You are filled with self-doubt, but mistrust the advice of others.  You allow yourself to be overwhelmed by rejection, but you are easily discouraged.  Learn not to blow things out of proportion.  You may opt for the “easy way out” instead of sticking to a problem until you have solved it.  Cultivate your inner feelings.  You can learn to rely on your instincts and prove yourself through positive experience.

 

 

Uranus conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  0.48)

 

(The Exceptional)

 

You were not cut in a conventional mold and may lead an unusual life.  Your main problems are instability, indecision, and a sometimes-rebellious attitude.  You are also inventive and optimistic.  You thrive on the excitement of a new adventure.  Sudden chances pave your way to success.  Do not depend on, but learn to be aware of them.   Like lightning, opportunities may come only once.  You must take advantage quickly before the moment is gone forever.

 

Venus square Mars  (Strength:  0.35)

 

(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:  0.10)

 

(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 sextile Mars  (Strength:  0.01)

 

(The Convincer)

 

Because your self-respect is obvious, you command attention and may often find yourself in a position of authority.  You enjoy defending your beliefs, not in an antagonistic manner, but to validate your feelings as you share your convictions.  Others work willingly with and for you.  You come into your own when allowed to exercise your initiative.  Avoid making impulsive decisions.  Your drive is subjective and needs contemplation for lasting results.

 

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).

 

 

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.

 

 

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.
