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

 

 

Pisces Ascendant

 

(The Poet)

 

Your large, round eyes are soulful, your hair curly or softly waving, and your thoughts brooding.  Behind your rose-colored glasses is a brilliant mind that needs structure.  But, you’re not apt to get it in school, where you daydream rather than study.  Extraordinary intuition will guide but not prepare you for success by ordinary means.  Adhere to a spiritual plan of development: Envision, believe and then employ the necessary means to achieve your highest goals.

 

 

 

Sun in Scorpio

 

(Keynote:  I DESIRE)

 

You are resourceful, imaginative, sensitive and loyal, but are capable of being cruel, conniving, sarcastic and vengeful.  Your incisive mind gives you powers of decision that are irrefutable.  You are adept at gaining the confidence of others, though few people know you well.  You will fight for your beliefs against any odds.  Your regenerative qualities give you quick recovery from defeat or illness.  If you share these gifts wisely, benefits to mankind will be your monument.  Otherwise, you will have only destruction and waste to show for your corruption of power over a lifetime of abuse.

 

 

Sun in the Eighth House

 

(The Transformer)

 

Your feelings run deep so there is a need for attunement with your inner self.  You may sometimes feel that you are destiny’s plaything and will try to discover hidden parts of yourself through investigating “the mysteries” or take an interest in occult or metaphysical studies.  As you increase your knowledge, you will recognize a compelling demand for constant change to promote your spiritual growth.  This is often presented by material lessons to which you must adjust. In conforming, be prepared to relinquish some part of your life so that you may experience a rebirth on a higher level.

 

 

 

Moon in Aquarius

 

(The Individual)

 

You are not always practical, but are unorthodox and misunderstood by those who do not appreciate that you are a true liberal of rare talent.  You cannot be restricted by the bonds of convention or a regulated society.  Whatever you do is done with all your heart, but once you have accomplished your purpose, you move on, which may give you a reputation of indifference.  Your independence can result in loneliness, though you surround yourself with people and join causes in which you strongly believe.  You search for enlightenment to bring you to the state of peace and tranquility you long for.

 

 

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 Scorpio

 

(The Detective)

 

You are a master at exposing secrets, but allow others to know only what you wish to disclose.  In solving problems, you have no peer.  Your stubborn determination will not let you rest until you are satisfied with results you personally approve.  You speak forcefully, and sometimes sarcastically, not always to your credit.  You may explore the occult or mind control.  Only the highly evolved realize that such power is a privilege, not a given, and use it wisely.

 

 

Mercury in the Eighth House

 

(The Mentalist)

 

You will discover early-on that (in your case) “mind over matter” is more than a saying.  You have great influence over others, and will find that you, in turn, are greatly impressed by the variety of people who will cross your path.  Your interests, provoked by a desire for self-discovery, may range from the occult to psychiatry.  Use what you find to improve yourself as a useful human being, willing to share your store of knowledge with your fellow man.

 

 

Venus in Scorpio

 

(The Passionate)

 

Your tempestuous nature is evident to anyone or anything you decide to possess or oppose.  You refuse to take “no” for an answer.  Others bend to your will because you are determined to have your own way, even if the result is not in your best interest.  Jealousy is a self-defeating fault, as is possessiveness.  Turn your power into self-control.   You have the ability to overcome negative qualities and lay a proper foundation to succeed in gaining what you desire most.

 

 

Venus in the Eighth House

 

(The Heirs)

 

In any partnership, look for shared values and beliefs on which to form a foundation.  In business, careers may depend on joint finances.  In personal relationships, allow your qualities of a lively imagination and curiously-experimental mind room for expansion.  Together, you may build a worthwhile estate, or inherit the career of another to manage.  Two heads are better than one because you will encourage personal growth from the combined centers of your beings.

 

 

Mars in Aquarius

 

(The Forerunner)

 

You focus on the future and see things with amazing clarity, so are apt to be impatient with those who do not have your vision.  Your motives are the best — to do for others what they cannot do for themselves.  You are a matchless fund-raiser and know who to approach and what to say to accomplish your missions. You extend this nurturing quality in your personal life.  All who recognize your kindness are sure to return the interest and appreciation you deserve.

 

 

Mars in the Twelfth House

 

(The Social Worker)

 

A frustrated desire for recognition may make you feel as though you were fighting a losing battle.  You tend to be secretive and hold your troubles within, when the answer to your depression is the antithesis of your feelings.  By getting outside yourself and involved in the problems of others, you may find that you are the physician who has healed himself by inspiring hope in those who lack courage to accept a new lease on life, which you both deserve.

 

 

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 Twelfth House

 

(The Good Samaritan)

 

You enjoy doing good works anonymously and receive pleasure from knowledge that you benefit others.  You may choose programs of institutional reform or a career in medicine to indulge your charitable work.  Through acts of mercy, you feed your soul and will find numerous ways to swell your spirit.

 

 

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.

 

 

Saturn in the Ninth House

 

(The Thinker)

 

You probably have the self-confidence usually born of long experience, no matter your age.  Your powers of concentration enable you to absorb the essentials of life in great chunks.  A career in law may satisfy your sense of justice.  However, inherent knowledge may preclude the experience to utilize it.  If your viewpoint seems narrow, look for ways to augment it.  Like the Bluebird, you may find them waiting in your own back yard.

 

 

Uranus in Sagittarius

 

(The Diviner)

 

You are amazingly accurate in forecasting events or circumstances that come about.  You have a good grasp of logic, so are unlikely to exceed your gifts, but use them to research areas that may contribute to the future of mankind. You are unconventional in your beliefs, fearless in your concepts, and may adopt philosophy rather than religion as a guideline.  You should introduce prudence into your restless nature to create wisdom you may share with others.

 

 

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 Capricorn

 

(The Mogul)

 

No matter what you put your hand to, it seems to come up gold.  This is no accident, but the result of keen insight, careful planning, and the persistence to ride over rough times and wait until fortune smiles.  You’re sometimes observed as a barometer for the stock market.  Even obscure plans take shape under your direction.  When you trust someone, you take his shortcomings as your own.  If betrayed, your confidence can only be rebuilt by time and testing.

 

 

Neptune in the Tenth House

 

(The Bewildered)

 

As if establishing goals for career and initiating a life course were not difficult enough, before you complete your education, you may despair of fitting into ANY role you have chosen.  Rather than change WHAT you are doing, try to discover if you are realistic about your potential and the manner in which you apply yourself.  If you need the advice of a counselor, choose one who does not deal with abstractions, but can suggest a practical means of achieving success.

 

 

Pluto in Scorpio

 

(The Regenerator)

 

You are a believer in second chances, but a tendency to hold fast to everything past the time of practicality weakens your effectiveness to accept new opportunity.  You are always stronger because of the wisdom gained in past experiences.  On a world-scale, you can offer the proof of your convictions that there is much that may be salvaged for renewal, rather than a stubborn determination to do things your way at the expense of the greater good.

 

 

Pluto in the Eighth House

 

(The Rejuvenator)

 

Your life is one of constant change, as though you are living several lifetimes in one.  Your gifts of intuition and an ability to restore to advantage when things fall apart are in your favor.  You can usually see beneath the surface of any situation, which gives you a decided edge, but try to avoid circumstances which put someone else in the driver’s seat.  You can look forward to each transforming experience which usually announces a period of spiritual growth.

 

 

Sagittarius Midheaven

 

You would be happiest in a career which allows you to enthusiastically inspire others.  You easily develop expertise which you visibly display to a large audience.  You would make a good consultant, motivator, propagandist, publicist, missionary, and spreader of the word.   Always in motion, you want to continually evolve in your career.  Your up-beat focus is on the future, not the past.  Those who are down, you cheer with your optimism.  You can be an outspoken crusader for justice and for the humane treatment of people, children, and animals.

 

You excel at work that calls for skill in human relationships, as you are affable and congenial in your personal contacts.  In your job there should be considerable freedom in what you do and how you are allowed to do it.  You would enjoy travelling to or at least communicating with varied locations.  You have an egalitarian, open-minded approach to people from various backgrounds.  You can successfully handle a variety of duties.  The potential drawbacks of this placement are scattered energies, lack of discipline, impulsiveness, and natural outspokenness turned to arguing for its own sake.  Your energies are best organized when guided by a goal or vision.

 

Occupations consistent with your changeable, active style of work include traveler, teacher, philosopher, outdoors occupation, hunter, athlete, publisher, advertiser, publicist, scholar, artist, conductor, businessperson, government official, lawyer, judge, or consultant .  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 Jupiter, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

North Node in Aries

 

(The Uncertain)

 

You project confidence, but are plagued with doubt that you can produce all that you promise.  You dislike calling others for assistance because it means exposing your soft underbelly.  When you learn you have many supporters waiting to follow your lead, you may discover that “your own person” is the “you” you wanted to be all along.

 

 

North Node in the First House

 

(The Individual)

 

You accomplish most when you “do it yourself,” but this does not mean you are capable of miracles.  First, you must know who you are and what you want; then how to make your plans work for you.  You may be tempted to lean on others, but that will only weaken your ability.  Refine your skills and learn to enjoy challenges, because your success-ratio is high.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  9.74)

 

(The Expansive)

 

You desire the best of all-possible worlds and can’t settle for less.  You may depend on others to provide your needs rather than to put your own energy into your projects.  You are surprised if they balk or object, since you reason you would do the same for them under similar circumstances –and you would!  You are never satisfied with current achievements and will spend much of your life employing an “extra stretch” to extend your knowledge and share your findings.

 

 

Uranus conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  8.76)

 

(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.

 

 

Sun square Mars  (Strength:  4.92)

 

(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.

 

 

Mars sextile Uranus  (Strength:  4.68)

 

(The Uncommon)

 

The songs “MY WAY” and “I GOTTA BE ME” exemplify your lifestyle.  You must be your “own” person and claim individual credit for your efforts.  You react strongly to subconscious suggestions and should realize that “unexpected” events are “set ups” originating within you.  Your unique abilities must be encouraged and guided.  You can become expert at whatever you choose to explore, but develop self-doubt if held from the unusual methods you use to achieve results.

 

 

Venus trine Jupiter  (Strength:  4.61)

 

(The Contented)

 

You are happy with who you are, where you are and what you are, so are pleasantly agreeable as a friend or social companion.  The only thing that may prevent you from becoming rich and/or famous is your tendency to take it easy and your belief that tomorrow will take care of itself.  This may or not be true, but you will never know if you don’t summon the energy to round a corner and see for yourself how you may enhance your dreams and bring them to fruition.

 

 

Sun trine Jupiter  (Strength:  4.02)

 

(The Benefic)

 

You lay claim to everything life has to offer and then use your creativity to find ways of inventing “more.”  Coupled with an inner-confidence that you can do anything, you may attain more than even you envision.  Still, you cannot rely on “luck” to fulfill your potential, and must provide the energy necessary for success.  Yours is a life of spiritual as well as material growth.  Share your fortune with others if you would add satisfaction to your long list of achievements.

 

 

Venus conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  3.62)

 

(The Determined)

 

An intense desire for love and the finer things of life may encourage you to be indiscriminate about how you acquire either.  You feel things on a “gut” level and may be jealous and possessive.  You will be loyal and sincere, even though you may realize you are pursuing someone who may not be good for you.  If angered by rejection, you’ll attempt to get even without thought of consequences.  Try to temper your fixations with reason to assure the success of an in-depth union.

 

 

Jupiter square Saturn  (Strength:  3.52)

 

(The Wary)

 

You are much like the old song that complains: “You have a feeling that you wanna go — then, you wanna stay — but you gotta go!”  You have an urge to expand or break away from restrictions, but may be overly careful — as if you never feel you have what it takes to succeed, so are a perpetual student instead of a graduate in the school of life.  You may set modest goals, unworthy of your higher potential.  Faith in yourself will prepare you for the success you can achieve.

 

 

Moon square Mercury  (Strength:  2.37)

 

(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.

 

 

Jupiter trine Pluto  (Strength:  1.05)

 

(The Activator)

 

You are consumed with a yearning for self-improvement, but must ask yourself why you are so driven.  You can inspire others as a “mover and a shaker” whose motivation is justified in the success you achieve, but it may not be enough.  Expand your efforts to include those who lack your zeal or courage to act on what they devoutly believe.  In helping others, you constantly renew yourself, your ambitions and the confidence that you can continue to grow by going the “extra mile.”

 

 

Moon sextile Neptune  (Strength:  0.49)

 

(The Perceptive)

 

Your senses are highly evolved so that you feel the “vibrations” of others.  You may also see colors, or “auras,” but unless you cultivate these gifts carefully, they may turn against you as delusions.  Avoid those who project negativity or it can infiltrate your character and weaken your gifts. Unless your abilities are recognized and encouraged, you will eventually become afraid of them or lose them altogether, as they need positive development to take full advantage.

 

 

Mercury square Mars  (Strength:  0.48)

 

(The Challenger)

 

Life is apt to be your private arena, as if you had something to prove every day of your life and are determined that others take notice.  You may display an irritability that puts others off or you may have to contend with those who make “getting your goat” a career.  In either case, a change of attitude will work wonders.  If you can’t manage your temper, try channeling it into some physical form to vent your pique and calm down until you are in control of your feelings.

 

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  0.19)

 

(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.”

 

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.

 

 

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.

 

 

Lack of Air

 

Expressing yourself does not come easily to you.  You distrust people who are fast, smooth talkers.  It may be easier for you to express yourself nonverbally or in writing than it is through speaking.  If you also lack planets in the houses of Relationships, you will find the normal avenues of communication and social learning blocked.  Your thinking will be personal instead of detached or rational.  With the mind’s normal communication channels blocked, you learn primarily from experience.  Lacking in the ability to view yourself objectively, you gain self-understanding primarily through feedback from others.

 

Try to see life less personally, in a more objective way.  Take classes and never stop educating yourself.

 

A lack of planets in Air signs can be offset by an Air sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Relationships.

 

 

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 Relationships

 

Relating to other people probably plays a minor role in your life.  You could remain unmarried, be a loner, or even be an orphan.  Your thinking is probably subjective or personal, without the objectivity that comes from having communicated with many people.  Let others teach you by showing you and if they give you any feedback on your thinking, see if you can learn from it.

 

A lack of planets in the houses of Relationships can be offset by abundant planets in Air signs.

 

 

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.
