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

 

 

Leo Ascendant

 

(The Showman)

 

Your “mane” is your crowning glory and you delight in calling attention to it by tossing your head, or twisting or curling your hair.  You are conscious of your looks and enjoy displaying yourself to advantage.  Some consider you garish, but there are others who admire your colorful personality.  If you are shy, you still have the power to draw those to you who are somehow aware of the strength, warmth and pleasantly-entertaining personality behind your obscure exterior.

 

 

 

Sun in Sagittarius

 

(Keynote: I ASPIRE)

 

You are self-reliant, ambitious, optimistic and friendly.  You may also be sarcastic, self-indulgent, impatient and tactless.   Others may see you as irresponsible, and a capricious flirt.  The truth is you are acutely aware of human values and enjoy improving potential.  You relate well to children, animals and the environment, and find them all fascinating.  You avoid commitment, which you feel restricts your freedom to expand.  Your bluntness often disguises a compassionate heart, deserving of rewards for your generous contributions to our planet.

 

 

Sun in the Fifth House

 

(The Artist)

 

You’ll get the most out of every moment, because you devote your energy to things that will make you personally happy.  If you can involve others in your activities, you expect that you will double your pleasure.  Friends may think you impractical because you extend your “Good-time Charlie” philosophy into your work, often choosing a career in the arts which allows you freedom to indulge your bent for fantasy.  You prefer relationships that are “fun,” but your devil-may-care attitude may preclude settling into a committed partnership.  Your motto is:  “Do your best, but be yourself!”

 

 

 

Moon in Sagittarius

 

(The Prophet)

 

You have a gift of farsightedness, which lets you see an entire picture instead of fragments available to others.  You amaze yourself at what your mind can conceive and often achieve with little effort, as though you were born to succeed.  You are open and frank, and for the most part, kind, but your thoughtless remarks can leave a wrong impression or create enemies.  A need for physical activity should not be ignored.  Otherwise, you can suffer “burn out” from too many mental gyrations, which will throw your balance and make you less efficient in your rush to attain your ambitions.

 

 

Moon in the Fifth House

 

(The Easy-Rider)

 

You enjoy a child-like lack of responsibility, so may not wish to leave childhood behind.  You are likable, but  sometimes irresponsible.  Theater is a good place to project your emotions.  Children identify with the child-in-you, so you are valuable as a teacher.  You may be having too much fun to commit to long-term relationships or a demanding career, and must overcome qualities of superficiality and self-indulgence to exercise your highest potential.

 

 

Mercury in Sagittarius

 

(The Motivator)

 

You may use your quick mind and powers of speech to uplift and support.  You enjoy the role of entrepreneur, but resent being relied on for solutions to problems that are not yours, since their weight impedes your progress.  You can lack the resolve it takes to stay on course, or spread yourself too thin, trying to grasp too much at once.  Beware that yours is not a life of “too much, too soon” or your later years will be empty of the challenge you love.

 

 

Mercury in the Fifth House

 

(The Comedian)

 

Your lively imagination, appealing youthfulness and scintillating conversation make you the center of attention. If you choose a career in the theater, you’ll send a ripple of approving mirth through your audience the moment you step onto the stage.  You’re equally playful in love, so must choose a partner as independent as you who can tolerate an off-again-on-again romance.   Once settled, you CAN be as serious as anyone, but isn’t playing “Peter Pan” more fun?

 

 

Venus in Sagittarius

 

(The Escape-artist)

 

Your interests are so varied that it is hard for you to be content with “one” of anything.  You love to travel, so may have two places you call “home.”  You need challenge and are easily bored, so can hold two jobs at the same time.  You are capable of loving more than one person, also, and will devise excuses to delay a commitment.  If you do settle down, your partner must accept your continued need for freedom and your sometimes-careless handling of money!

 

 

Venus in the Fifth House

 

(The Butterfly)

 

You possess fairy-gifts:  Beauty, popularity — even riches and fame, but they are as fickle as you, yourself, are capable of being.  Don’t take your charmed existence for granted. Make the most of your talents by applying them productively.  The lessons of your life may not be laughed off as easily as the jealousy you inevitably attract.  If you try, you will find yourself in the rags of disappointment, unknown to you when you were the Belle of the Ball!

 

 

Mars in Sagittarius

 

(The Skeptic)

 

Your demeanor is one of extreme self-confidence and defined direction.  You are distrustful of established regimen, prefer to march to your own drummer and defy others to keep up with you.  Red tape is “there to be cut,” but you realize you must operate within certain confines to make your innovative ideas acceptable.  You are a person who “packs his own chute.”  If you must fall to earth, it will be on your terms and you have no one to blame but yourself.

 

 

Mars in the Fifth House

 

(The Playmate)

 

You are openly affectionate.  Like an engaging puppy, you wheedle to get your way.  If an old slipper is torn in the process, you know you’ll be forgiven.  You shine in physical-contact sports.  Your many friends admire you, but relationships suffer because you change partners often. Discipline is a hard, but necessary task-master, if you are to grow beyond the child that is no longer charming, but becomes a foolish adult, clinging to childish ways.

 

 

Jupiter in Aquarius

 

(The Cosmopolitan)

 

You are truly liberal in your humanitarian views.  What some call “idealistic,” you practice as a way of life.  You sympathize with minority needs and work with the majority to improve mankind.  Visionary gifts allow you a glimpse of the future. If you succeed in your efforts to enrich the world, it will be a far better place in which to live.

 

 

Jupiter in the Seventh House

 

(The Alliance)

 

Whether your partnership is professional or personal, your mate must allow you room to expand.  Your original intent may be that you can accomplish more as a team than as individuals.  This works best if you agree to share quality, rather than quantity time together.  Otherwise, your need for independence will soon split an otherwise productive pairing.

 

 

Saturn in Capricorn

 

(The Controller)

 

Ambition motivates you to achieve your goals “no matter what!”  It is your belief in your executive qualities of perseverance and discipline that will get you to the top and determination that will keep you there.  Your relationships often take a back seat to your achievements, but man cannot live by bread, alone.  Do not take yourself so seriously that you fail to permit the sweetness of the outside world to intrude, however briefly, in your somewhat solitary life.

 

 

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 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.

 

 

Uranus in the Second House

 

(The Opportunist)

 

You are quick to react to sudden windfalls or calamities.  Challenges cause you to re-examine your priorities.   You are aware that “destiny” plays a hand in your affairs as the result of the course you have set, and that personal evolvement demands change.  You are not afraid to adopt an unconventional means of self-discovery or explore the unknown. You may choose a career in science or investigate astrology as a hobby–then make it your profession!

 

 

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.

 

 

Neptune in the Fourth House

 

(The Nonconformist)

 

Even though you may defy the edicts of your parents, you will always look to them for guidance.  Your mother, in particular, may instill high ideals upon which to mold your life.  Home means shelter to you.  You will decorate it to suit yourself, regardless of what is in vogue, or seems practical.  You make your environs uniquely yours.  However, you tend to be untidy, and may destroy what you have built by neglecting to care for your creations.

 

 

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.

 

 

Pluto in the Second House

 

(The Materialist)

 

You may lend more importance to the acquisition of material goods than is due, and be obsessive about “who owns what” in property disputes.  Be objective in determining values, or you may find an outstanding business acumen stunted by your reluctance to include associates in the profits.  You may rebuild your foundations time and again before achieving success, but once you reach your zenith there is very little that can topple you from the place you have earned.

 

 

Taurus Midheaven

 

You will do best in a career that offers steady growth, a career in which you can study what works and then be the one to provide stability and direction for the organization.  As long as you are earning a good income, enjoy positive relations with your coworkers, and have a little beauty where you work, you will be content to work quietly.  You are unlikely to push for change or to be combative in the workplace, unless someone affronts your pride.

 

You are good at cultivating relations with people, as opposed to things, and will extend yourself to others in the workplace. Your network of personal connections and inside knowledge, gained over time, makes you quite a resourceful employee.   You have faith in common sense and the existing order.  Change throws you off-balance.  If you are emotionally stressed, you may regard acquiring material possessions to be some sort of solution, which it is not.  You could also become surprisingly stubbon and vocal in your displeasure.  Remember that you have developed many resources.  Concentrate upon cultivating and using them for the common good.

 

Occupations consistent with your stable, practical style of work include official, executive, artist, singer, musician, designer, beautician, banker, business investor, property manager, farmer, stockbreeder, evangelist, advertiser, builder or public servant.  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 Venus, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

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.

 

 

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

 

Sun conjunct Mars  (Strength:  5.38)

 

(The Egocentric)

 

You have unusual good health and a surplus of energy that resists regimenting or sublimating.  You must find personal and positive expression to accomplish your aims without becoming egoistic and argumentative.  Learn to curb your disposition to override others in a cavalier manner.  You may accomplish more on your own than you do in partnership, but are a leader, not a “loner.”  Those who believe in you can make a difference between chaos and the completion of your useful endeavors.

 

 

Moon trine Uranus  (Strength:  4.41)

 

(The Remodeler)

 

You constantly look for new and unusual ways to improve your lifestyle.  You move easily from one relationship into another without arousing resentment or enmity, convincing everyone that changes are for the best.  As you grow in consciousness, you will expand on systems you may no longer find useful in their present form.  Not content to remain “status quo,” you are ever interested in personal progress and willing to explore new ways of attaining new goals.

 

 

Mercury square Pluto  (Strength:  3.70)

 

(The Opinionated)

 

You may have the courage of your convictions, but not allow others to voice an opinion, or you can try to force your ideas without a proper foundation.  If you encounter continual resistance or the protests of those you try to impress, you have the ability to investigate your own psyche to understand your motivation and correct your actions.  You may have to modify basic beliefs, or just use your “take charge” manner to exercise self-control when it is to your advantage.

 

 

Venus sextile Jupiter  (Strength:  3.57)

 

(The Charitable)

 

You gladly share your fortune with those who need advice, money or just a lift in spirits.  Because you make yourself available to the downtrodden does not mean that you are in a position to be “used,” since you are astute in business and aware of flaws in human nature, which can be indulged through too much “humanity.”  You believe in a law of the universe which provides that you must replenish that which you have taken and are therefore never in short supply, yourself.

 

 

Sun conjunct Mercury  (Strength:  2.87)

 

(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.

 

 

Venus square Uranus  (Strength:  1.86)

 

(The Trifler)

 

A search for excitement keeps you constantly on the go.  Your flirtatious manner may not be acceptable to your companions, unless you have a partner who shares your love of adventure and freedom to explore.  A great deal of flexibility is necessary for your unions to survive.  If suppressed, your energy will demand undisciplined release, which is the stuff from which nervous breakdowns are made.  Find positive expression in the creativity with which you are blessed.

 

 

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  1.81)

 

(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.”

 

 

Sun square Pluto  (Strength:  0.57)

 

(The Crisis)

 

You must overcome obstinacy — yours or the stubbornness of others — or be faced with challenges that can literally cause your downfall.  Depending on how well you acquit yourself, you will either gain the respect or contempt of authority figures.  If you are in the driver’s seat, you may be the one to pass judgment.  In either case, a crisis may be a crossroads.  You can determine the success of your future by the direction you take when these turning points occur.

 

 

Venus square Pluto  (Strength:  0.56)

 

(The Profound)

 

You may appear to be something you’re not to get what you want or to attract the mysterious, because you are intrigued by the unknown.  The intensity of your nature can tempt you to use underhanded methods to fulfill your compelling desires. If another exerts an undesirable influence over you, you may not break away because of basic insecurities.  Only light can dispel darkness.  Find ways to avoid what is unwise, unsafe, or unhealthy to restore you to politic thinking.

 

 

Mercury conjunct Mars  (Strength:  0.26)

 

(The Argumentative)

 

Early discipline is important.  Otherwise, instead of controlling an explosive temper and disruptive feelings, they are sure to control you.  You are quick to speak your mind or point of view, often without being asked, which can cause resentment and aggravation with others.  You enjoy challenge, particularly if it leads to self-improvement.  If you direct your excess of energy constructively into what is really important to you, you can shorten your road to success.

 

 

 

 

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 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 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 Life

 

Abundant planets in the houses of life gives you both the energy and the urge to create the future.  By your activities, you make the world a better place. You may be somewhat self-centered, but with your crusading spirit you move the world towards the ideals that you envision.

 

 

Lack of Endings

 

You live on the surface of things, afraid to look within at what you really feel and want.  Perhaps your position is too precarious or the obligations too great to allow yourself this luxury.  You feel forced to maintain your personal status quo.  You come across to others as unfeeling.  Because personal feelings do not distract you, you might make a good scientist, though be aware that the greatest scientists let intuitive feelings be their guide.

 

A lack of planets in the houses of Endings can be offset by abundant planets in Water signs.

 

 

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.

 

 

Abundant Mutable

 

With an abundance of planets in Mutable signs, you adapt easily to changing circumstances.  Mentally quick, you adapt like a chameleon to give each what they want, until you are on to the next friend or interest.  Life offers a succession of roles to play.  Skilled at diplomacy and compromise, you make a good negotiator and appear to be everyone’s friend.  You actually are other-oriented, rather than self-oriented, and can be so busy meeting others’ needs that you lack direction in your own life.  Concentrate on finding friends of true worth and value.  Be discriminating in your associations, in whom you choose to help.  The endless flow from your mind, tongue, and hands will then work to return real value to you, which is what you deserve.  You can probably only follow this advice just so far, though, because more than others the Universe sends you people in need, people for whom you are able to make a real difference.  The assistance that you provide to the powerless may actually be remembered long after your facile mental output is forgotten.  Your activities can also bring an end to institutions that have outlived their usefulness.
