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 Virgo
(Keynote: I ANALYZE)
You are practical, modest, thoughtful and discriminating. You can be critical, withdrawn, narrow, and tend to worry too much, particularly about your health. You are hard to know because you are cool and reserved, but are a fine teacher, with an aptitude for figures, an ability to evaluate accurately, and an abundance of knowledge. Your sense of responsibility assures the most tedious task will be finished promptly and precisely. Your dry wit is often unexpected and appreciated, but when it turns to biting sarcasm can make even your best friends wish you’d stayed at home!
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.
Mercury in Libra
(The Moderator)
You are a born diplomat, so can usually sugar-coat even a bitter pill to make it palatable. Because you see all sides of a question, you often have trouble making up your mind as to what is “fair.” Look for a partner who is intellectually stimulating, and will inspire you to use your gift of writing. Though your work may not be commercial, it will give you the pleasure of creating something beautiful to share with those who appreciate your efforts.
Venus in Virgo
(The Unappreciated)
Your feelings are vulnerable to the slights of others. Perhaps in retaliation, you have a tendency to overanalyze and criticize any partners in your life. You may also invite those whose standards are not your own, thereby giving you an opportunity for such censure. Use the discretion you employ in business to choose someone who will appreciate your fine qualities of selectivity and is able to expose the sympathetic nature you bury beneath the cool exterior you present.
Mars in Libra
(The Captivator)
An intensive yen for romance may tempt you to marry early and in haste, which is inviting trouble. You enjoy life as an “attention-getter” with good looks and a congenial manner to attract those with the same qualities. You will also inevitably provoke the jealousy that goes with popularity. You’re really too intelligent to indulge your penchant for changing partners each time you dance. You have what it takes to recognize the “right” one, with all you need to be happy.
Jupiter in Aries
(The Pioneer)
You see the potential in everything and everybody, but success is not the same for everyone. While nothing seems impossible to you, others are not blessed with your optimism that “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” Undaunted by failure, you will not settle for less than the best and will try to reach a star, long after you’ve gained a mountain-top.
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 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 Cancer
(The Regressor)
Your biggest stumbling block is your pride. If you don’t receive the respect you feel you deserve, you will distance the love you desire. Learn to give without expectation of rewards and remember the selfless nurturing received in childhood. Offer that same care to others who need it now, if you would receive full value for emotional investments.
Planets in Aspect
Moon square Saturn (Strength: 6.15)
(The Lonely)
You may be depressed because you feel isolated and take the blame for your plight, but not know how to solve the problem. “Burying” yourself in work or other distractions is not going to satisfy you. Relationships often mean chancing rejection, but if you hesitate to brave a possible loss of pride, you will also deny an opportunity for fulfillment. By repressing feelings, you may find that you are denying expressions which can then emerge in a destructive way.
Moon trine Venus (Strength: 5.92)
(The Lover)
You live for love and instinctively know how to have your love returned. You enjoy socializing with friends, and like to make or give little mementos that have personal meaning. You may work or be employed in a manner that provides an outlet for your artistic gifts. When you fall in love, your partner will be fortunate as you find a thousand ways to express your love unselfishly without jealousy, possessiveness or other destructive qualities to spoil your idyll.
Sun conjunct Venus (Strength: 4.42)
(The Socialite)
You are refined and cultured with a love of the arts and beautiful things. Because a day without fun is depressing, you make yourself attractive and available and are usually where something entertaining is going on. You can become self-indulgent and conceited, believing money and looks will take you farther than is reasonable, but when you see that “Pretty is as Pretty does,” will try to develop inner qualities to complement the glamorous image you project.
Sun conjunct Pluto (Strength: 3.91)
(The Delver)
You will leave no stone unturned to understand the source of energies that press you to continually transform your life into “something better.” Facets of yourself that need revision will undergo radical changes as you eliminate anything impeding your progress. Keep your eye “single” as to how you may improve in spite of others who try to force you to their ways. Believe in yourself. Little can deter you, once you find a practical way to express your power.
Jupiter sextile Saturn (Strength: 3.87)
(The Merger)
You have the best of both worlds as you fuse your dreams with practicality to fulfill them. You accurately plan your growth to fit within sensible structures which are designed to expand as you watch your ambitions fulfilled. You are an apt student who never tires of learning experiences that keep your life from becoming static. You do not consider organization as limitation, and have the patience to see things through with satisfying results and justifiable pride as your rewards.
Sun trine Moon (Strength: 3.34)
(The Composed)
You have a good understanding of who you are and what you can accomplish. You often help your friends to make the decisions that will bring their lives into balance through needed adjustments. You believe in paying attention to stress signals that threaten your equilibrium and correcting your problems through adapting to change. You are exemplary of the blending of the Yin and Yang or the harmonious merging of spiritual needs and bodily expression.
Sun sextile Neptune (Strength: 3.30)
(The Spiritualist)
Because your inherent beliefs tell you that mind and body are one, you will strive for perfect balance. Your low energy levels suit you for periods of meditation. As you turn inward, you may open mediumistic qualities which make you sensitive to the feelings of others and you will respond to their needs. Material blessings will never satisfy you. Follow inner urges that prompt you to reach for understanding born of your search for higher self in divine spirit.
Venus inconjunct Saturn (Strength: 2.78)
(The Concerned)
You are plagued by mixed feelings. Though you yearn for romance, an age difference in your partner can cause conflicts. There will always be a choice to make between work and pleasure. Unfortunately, in your case, the two just don’t blend. You may have erotic ideas or a gambling instinct, but will hold them down as being impractical. You can turn this to your advantage by exercising self-control which will prove that “slow, but steady” wins your race!
Venus inconjunct Jupiter (Strength: 2.64)
(The Spendthrift)
You may depend too much on appearances to attract what you think are the “right” crowd and circumstances. Your self-delusion is apparent when you spend emotionally without an idea of how you will “pay the rent.” To compensate for frustrated dreams of grandeur, you may indulge your sweet tooth, which can result in unwanted pounds and inches, or even in allergies. By curbing your appetites and employing a practical outlook, you may find the very successes you desire.
Neptune sextile Pluto (Strength: 2.61)
(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 opposite Neptune (Strength: 1.65)
(The Oblivious)
You may be so preoccupied with your thoughts that you allow life to pass you by. If plans don’t materialize as you wish, you may devise a solution or an “escape” that has nothing to do with your problems. You may attract those who take advantage, or may practice deceits yourself, so that others cannot trust you. Try for counseling to establish basic values that are practical. You can employ your agile mind in a beneficial manner with the proper guidance.
Saturn square Neptune (Strength: 1.50)
(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.
Sun inconjunct Saturn (Strength: 1.20)
(The Learner)
You, of all people, can profit from this usually self-defeating aspect, if only you make an effort to overcome your propensity for self-pity. The attitude you project is all-important if you expect partners to support your ideas. Your depressions can bring others down, too. Concentrate on getting the inner self out of the way so you can contribute the practical results of lessons you have learned the hard way to a world in need of your innate qualities of practicality.
Sun inconjunct Jupiter (Strength: 1.06)
(The Unaware)
Your enthusiastic plans may be thwarted because of a lack of preparation or experience. You may overextend yourself in your hurry to expand your horizons. Self-indulgence can bring an end to your dreams. Over-compensation for disappointments, in the form of excesses, can result in problems with weight or addictions which require more than willpower to overcome. Try to invite projects that demand your best in constructive action for the lasting rewards you seek.
Venus conjunct Pluto (Strength: 0.33)
(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.
Uranus conjunct Pluto (Strength: 0.25)
(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.
Moon trine Pluto (Strength: 0.25)
(The Evolvement)
You are not only willing, but anxious to grow and mature. You need to know “why” you have certain feelings and will search for ways to explore them. You may pursue psychology, philosophy or elevate your spirit through intimate encounters with conscious-raising techniques which you can adopt as your own. Once you find your niche, an obsessive nature can limit your development, or you may turn your d
iscoveries to professional skills to share with others.
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 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 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 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.
