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 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.

 

 

Mercury in Capricorn

 

(The Logician)

 

You are a strategist who employs systematic methods and are seldom upset, unless your plans are disturbed.  You communicate with others by getting right to the point with a minimum of wasted effort.  Others may consider you sober, self-righteous and too rigid to enjoy life, but what they think of as “rigid”, you believe to be structured, “sober” as merely serious, and “self-righteousness” is your pride in accomplishments that you have earned the hard way.

 

 

Venus in Capricorn

 

(The Austere)

 

You are extremely aware of social status and chances to improve your position.  Your determination and ambition are admired by your business associates.  You may marry the “boss’s daughter/son”.  Once committed, you are unswervingly faithful and loyal, but your marriage can be “an arrangement” rather than a love-match.  You will make your family proud, but may deprive your spouse or others of affection, due to your emotional nature, which is often severe and unyielding.

 

 

Mars in Virgo

 

(The Indispensable)

 

You perform “to the letter” and often to an “nth” degree that is unnecessary.  You seem to have unlimited physical resources, take orders well and respect regimen, but may have difficulty in relating to co-workers.  In arguments, you express quickly, accurately, and, too often, sarcastically. You are a valuable helpmate in personal relationships, though a need to avoid expressing yourself in a superior manner should be recognized and modified to an acceptable level.

 

 

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?

 

 

Saturn in Pisces

 

(The Stabilizer)

 

Although it is in your disposition to look to others for support, you can search for your independence and find it.  You may turn moodiness into meditation and benefit from time spent with yourself by listening to “small voices” within that you have not had the courage to hear.  You may cling to destructive emotional patterns, but can develop a will to win.  This has little to do with rewards, other than to at last glimpse who you are and delight in the knowledge.

 

 

Uranus in Virgo

 

(The Quirky)

 

You have talent for discovering unusual types of diet and herbal remedies, but must present an authoritative platform before encouraging others to try them.  Otherwise, you may be taken as a “quack” instead of a mechanist who qualifies as a valuable teacher.  A government position may introduce you to other countries and the fundamentals in ancient science as your foundation.  Employ a critical eye as a useful tool when discerning suitable applications in the healing arts.

 

 

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 Gemini

 

(The Whirlwind)

 

You try to stay so busy that personal commitment is impossible.  If you take on more than you can handle, you cannot blame yourself for “failures.”  You feel your education is inadequate.  True communication is never one-sided.  Allow others to voice their questions and opinions while you prepare answers gleaned from the worthwhile knowledge you possess.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Mercury trine Mars  (Strength:  5.15)

 

(The Lecturer)

 

You are sure of your facts and have the courage of your convictions, which makes you a competent speaker.  While you are confident, you are seldom combative.  Your perception is keen and you adapt quickly, so will be as at home in foreign climates as you are on familiar ground.  You enjoy negotiating and winning disputes.  Should you have to compromise your beliefs, you will not be discouraged but resolve to shore up your defenses and do better next time.

 

 

Sun conjunct Moon  (Strength:  4.89)

 

(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.

 

 

Jupiter trine Pluto  (Strength:  4.89)

 

(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.”

 

 

Uranus conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  4.19)

 

(The Unrestrained)

 

You are convinced that new ways are the best ways because they are your ways.  Since you don’t take discipline readily, you may be in conflict with authority figures.  Older people with “old-fashioned ways” seem particular adversaries.  Your life is one of evolvement, without “encumbrances” to hold you back, including relationships.  You may be wise beyond your years, but must have the patience to wait until you know what the universe is about before trying to change it.

 

 

Mercury conjunct Venus  (Strength:  4.13)

 

(The Considerate)

 

Your mind and emotions are in harmony, so you express your feelings openly and sincerely.  Since you are people and service-oriented and may have artistic talents, you may blend them in business, i.e. you might produce scientific products for cosmetics or invent new ways of combining colors in art. You are sentimental about loved ones.  Beware of granting your love to those who don’t appreciate your fine, sensitive qualities, which would destroy your joy in giving.

 

 

Venus trine Mars  (Strength:  3.28)

 

(The Union)

 

You are physically attractive and attracted to others who project their sexuality in a positive manner.  Your pairings are intense, you seldom let them get out of the balance that makes for harmonious relationships.  You sense when you are being “used” and will dissolve a partnership if unanimity is not restored.  However, partings need not be chaotic.  You are a diplomatic charmer, valued for the friendship you extend and maintain without surrendering your individuality.

 

 

Jupiter trine Uranus  (Strength:  3.09)

 

(The Favored)

 

You are blessed with unexpected opportunities that seem to materialize from nowhere.  But, unless you are quick to take advantage, they may vanish like smoke from a Genie’s lamp.  Fortunately, you enjoy or will create the necessary freedom to accept any bounty that comes your way.  If it involves change, your pleasure is doubled.  You are ready to grow, expand and, when given the chance, develop the ability to fly towards your fortune with the wind at your back!

 

 

Jupiter opposite Neptune  (Strength:  3.03)

 

(The Wastrel)

 

It is difficult for you to see “the trees for the forest” sometimes, because of your inclination to put a mask on reality.  You mean well, but are extremely idealistic and can become lost in generalities, since you seldom “fine tune” the picture.  Despite your abstractions, you are intuitive and may take risks that pay off.  If you cannot be sure your plans are practical, take the advice of someone with more experience to keep you grounded, with a realistic chance at success.

 

 

Sun square Jupiter  (Strength:  2.49)

 

(The Pompous)

 

Your eye is very much on the “donut” and not on the “hole.”  You are a citizen of the world and an eager learner, so benefit by extensive travel.  Others are excited by your dynamic presence and what you have to say, unless you spoil your image by exaggerating reality or monopolize center stage to hear your own voice.  Then, those great gulps of life you devour can distend your ego as well as your waistline and result in chronic social indigestion.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  2.40)

 

(The Straw-grasper)

 

Unexpected challenges may seem to impede your progress, but the truth is you may be too erratic in your plans or ideas to be taken seriously by your fellows.  You can act on impulse or ignore the consequences of your behavior.  You may feel that “no one understands you” and attract partners who are as unstable as you.  Though you dislike restriction, early discipline may help to align your inventive qualities into patterns that can prove to be practical as you mature.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  0.60)

 

(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.

 

 

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  0.38)

 

(The Self-indulgent)

 

You are interested in self-improvement, but may surfeit yourself with knowledge you may never use, and courses not appropriate to your lifestyle.  You are generous to a fault, but may exact payment by boasting to friends how you have traveled, studied and “lived.”  Self-improvement need not mean arrogance that can turn others from you.  Modesty will permit your exuberance for expansion to become a source of delight and interest rather than a reason for evasion and derision.

 

Moon inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  0.30)

 

(The Inconsistent)

 

You may be considered a “show off” or just do things to get attention, and be disruptive, rather than amusing. Rather than follow a proven path, you often opt for a creative way “around duties.”  You can contribute innovative ideas but are not good at following through, as you change your mind constantly about your own inventions.  Withhold your theories until you are schooled in fundamentals.  Otherwise, instead of being s

uccessful, you will finish as a “wanna-be.”

 

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).

 

 

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 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.
