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 Aries
(Keynote: I AM)
You are self-sufficient, self-motivated, and self-confident, but can be self-centered and self-destructive. There is little that can deter you from your goals. Your numerous friends are supportive and follow your lead. But, you will make dangerous enemies if you are arrogant, conceited or selfish. Then, you may reach your zenith but will have great difficulty in holding your position. For all your self-reliance, partners are important to you. Take others into your consideration or you will find your “top of the heap” as lonely and unfulfilling as you, yourself, have made it.
Moon in Virgo
(The Spartan)
Your outwardly-cool attitude may cause others to approach you with caution, and make friendship difficult. You are capable of accomplishing a lot, with little to work with. You are not particularly ambitious, but may over-emphasize your limitations. A place in scientific research is possible, where your practical mind and attention to detail can be appreciated. If you are too hard on yourself or others, you can destroy your chances for recognition of your excellent merits. Digestive difficulties may occur if you fret obsessively with no outlet for your frustrations.
Mercury in Aries
(The Quick Study)
You “catch on” fast, but are apt to drop ideas as swiftly as you conceive them. Your assertive attitude may put off those who feel threatened by your ability to take charge. You usually go with first impressions and will only change your mind reluctantly, if proven wrong. Your famous temper may flare on occasion, but quarrels are quickly forgotten. You are self-serving, express confidently, and only need to modify your actions to achieve the rewards you desire.
Venus in Taurus
(The Voluptuary)
You love comfort, luxury and things that appeal to your senses. You are a party-giver, with a liking for rich foods, and a particular fondness for chocolate. Music is a major part of your life and strongly affects your moods. Dissonance produces nervousness and harmony soothes and quiets you. You are a traditionalist who enjoys the security of the tried-and-true and are not given to accepting the unconventional without a thorough understanding of a need for change.
Mars in Pisces
(The Indeterminate)
You put much of your energy into working for social reforms or human rights. While you are unusually focused in your endeavors, you give little thought to personal needs. You will do better for others if your life is in balance. Ambivalence, indecision, procrastination and duality create conflicts that need revision and structure. Acknowledge your value and allow yourself freedom to grow as a reward for the charity you so generously extend to others.
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.
Saturn in Aquarius
(The Apprentice)
You are a student of the universe and will explore different avenues, while attracting a variety of friends. Many of these will be with you for your lifetime of discovery. You will delve into both orthodox and progressive values before adapting them to your own original purposes. Your findings may have intrinsic worth in your later years. Don’t discount their significance. A master is no less a master because he must adhere to a need for creature comforts.
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 Leo
(The Nonchalant)
You yearn for success, but your carefree attitude requires discipline to channel your energies. You need support, but give the impression of being self-sufficient, so seldom receive it. Curb your independence. Work with others to acquire necessary skills to exploit your unquestionable talents, when desire is not enough to accomplish your purpose.
Planets in Aspect
Sun trine Uranus (Strength: 6.52)
(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.
Moon opposite Mars (Strength: 6.21)
(The Untenable)
You ride an emotional see-saw which is difficult to control, particularly in personal relationships. You may have trouble relating to women as a result of childhood programming by a mother-figure. Your emotions can provoke involuntary tantrums that may prove embarrassing. Try to develop a tolerance for others since you are not essentially a “loner.” You need people in your life who may help you to mature as a calmer individual, capable of leadership instead of tyranny.
Sun conjunct Mercury (Strength: 5.41)
(The Conversationalist)
You express your opinions and ideas well, and may preface each sentence with “I”, since your focus is on yourself. If you are promoting your interests commercially, you will get your point across, but should listen to the views of others to enhance your chances of success. You enjoy travel and meeting with people to exchange ideas. You are a natural teacher. If you show a flair for writing, voicing your opinions may be useful and is often the mark of a successful columnist.
Saturn square Neptune (Strength: 3.93)
(The Troubled)
You take yourself seriously and often compound your problems by assuming sole blame. You may be pessimistically blind in your outlook and cry “Why me?” instead of opening your eyes to practical and available answers. Learn to appreciate what you have, beginning with yourself. Try to use selflessness in helping others, or counsel with someone to raise your self-esteem to the place where you are not easily overwhelmed, and count your blessings on a day-to-day basis.
Mercury trine Uranus (Strength: 3.93)
(The Ingenious)
You enjoy all forms of mental challenge and activity, particularly if it means interaction with others you find exciting or who can contribute new and different ideas. You may show a gift for languages which will prove useful in visiting foreign lands, since you are an inveterate and intrepid traveler with a large curiosity bump to satisfy. You find unusual ways to extricate yourself from obstacles or, better still, turn them into stepping stones.
Moon inconjunct Mercury (Strength: 3.52)
(The Gossip)
Your constant chatter is actually an expression of your over- active mind. You are often the victim of the famous “Foot in mouth” problem, since you seldom plan what to say or see who may be listening. You are easily distracted, and may settle for thinking up a project, rather than completing it. Consider periods of meditation to calm your senses and allow you to learn the art of concentration, whereby some of your very valid ideas might be followed to fulfillment.
Jupiter opposite Pluto (Strength: 2.85)
(The Outsider)
You may feel that what you accomplish, you do with great opposition from those who do not understand or agree with what they consider your bizarre demeanor. If you resent their criticism and stubbornly defend your ideas, you may do yourself great harm and face being ostracized permanently. You will make more headway with fewer bruises if you modify your behavior toward others who may lend their friendship and support, rather than trying to fight the world alone.
Sun inconjunct Moon (Strength: 1.93)
(The Reflection)
Your determination to succeed may cause you to trip over your ego. Joint resources may fall victim to your personal ambitions or shortage of willpower when push comes to shove. Don’t blame your lack of vitality on health problems, rather than take a rest when your body indicates the need. You will find a likeness of what you project in others. No amount of “cover-ups” or excuses will bring you stability. Use this as a guide to establish your equilibrium early-on.
Venus opposite Neptune (Strength: 1.87)
(The Pretender)
You enjoy a private world of make-believe, which may seem preferable to reality. You are capable of deceiving others in the name of “love” with the “best” of intentions. You will never forget the pleasure or the pain of a love relationship and may continue to fantasize what might have been after it has ended. Choose to use your persuasive nature to improve partnerships or increase your spirituality by believing or convincing others there is some good in everything.
Mars inconjunct Uranus (Strength: 1.24)
(Head of the Class)
You may depend on your above-average mind for success. If you could kick your ego out of the way, and impress others that you are a “know-a-lot,” rather than a “know-it-all,” you might avoid the anger you feel when your ideas are not accepted, or you are seen as disruptive rather than “quick” or “bright.” If you attempt to accomplish too much too fast, you may suffer nervous disorders. Earn an image of practical innovation, rather than one of bloated self-importance.
Saturn inconjunct Pluto (Strength: 0.29)
(The Overseer)
You have an authority-figure rationale, which is not content to let well-enough alone. You are probably hard on yourself, as well as others. Others, too, may impose unnecessary hardships on you. In either case, a critical quality may lead you to be too exacting in your expectations. Even a precisionist can develop a lively imagination and indulge in periods of fantasy. Learn not to stifle enjoyment to which you are entitled by imposing a surfeit of duty.
Balance of Elements and Modalities
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 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.
Balanced Sign Modalities
In your chart, the planets are distributed in a balanced manner between the Cardinal, Fixed, and Mutable modalities. Ability to act and survive in the world is balanced with inner insight. You stick to your values and principles at the same time that you react quickly and adapt to changes. You have the ability to listen as well as to lead. You enjoy life, but also do not shrink from facing challenges.
