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 Taurus

 

(Keynote: I OWN)

 

You have deep material and spiritual concerns and are patient, kind, romantic and firm in your resolves.  You are also capable of being stubborn, unyielding, self-indulgent, possessive and jealous.  You enjoy tangibles that have weight and intrinsic worth, and display your assets and achievements prominently.  Your aesthetic hunger makes you a patron of the arts.  You will forgive, but not forget an injustice.  A need for security can override your integrity, but you will defend your means to achieve an end because you cannot accept yourself if others find you wanting.

 

 

 

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 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 Aries

 

(The Wire-walker)

 

You are an extremist who is sweetly disposed or aggressively angry in unpredictable turns.  If you decide to be a pianist, you will devote hours and months to study and practice; then trade it in on a clarinet.  Look for a balance that will keep you from impulsively falling in love, marrying, divorcing, and marrying again.  You are a handful of dynamite in an appealing package.  Only in moderation can you find the stability you need for the happiness you deserve.

 

 

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 Capricorn

 

(The Traditionalist)

 

You may need to relax your conventionally-narrow views, to gamble now and then on human nature to prevail in the face of overwhelming obstacles.  Once you have decided to reveal yourself as the fine, understanding person you are, you should have no trouble taking your place successfully in public office, where you can lead the masses to enlightenment.

 

 

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.

 

 

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 Virgo

 

(The Pushover)

 

Your tender heart is on your sleeve, welcoming those who would take advantage.  Experience will grant you the knowledge that if you assume all burdens presented by the weak, they become weaker.  As you become discerning, you will utilize your ability to help others without damaging your potential and no longer assume self-sacrifice as a way of life.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Jupiter trine Pluto  (Strength:  5.89)

 

(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.”

 

 

Sun opposite Neptune  (Strength:  5.43)

 

(The Faddist)

 

You are vulnerable to the input of others and may unwisely adopt diets in vogue or even “popular” illnesses, such as the “vapors” of turn-of-the-century belles or hallucinatory drugs of the ’60’s.  As your own worst enemy, you deceive yourself that you are like everyone else instead of a uniquely-sensitive individual.  If you have doubts about people or circumstances, ask for advice from a wiser head, since yours is often in the clouds.

 

 

Mercury trine Uranus  (Strength:  4.58)

 

(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.

 

 

Sun trine Pluto  (Strength:  4.41)

 

(The Success)

 

Your determination to succeed impresses others and attracts those who may help you.  You will define your goals and examine the changes required to accomplish them at each stage of your progress. If it means becoming a “new” person, you will undergo necessary reforms and transformation.  Good health accompanies your positive attitude.  At one with perfect spiritual harmony, you achieve the balance necessary to realize, accept and maintain a position of prominence.

 

 

Sun trine Jupiter  (Strength:  4.31)

 

(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.

 

 

Mars sextile Saturn  (Strength:  3.78)

 

(The Informed)

 

You realize your capabilities and are willing to work carefully for lasting results.  You do not take work loads as burdens, but as opportunities to improve your worth.  Your perseverance commands the respect, and sometimes attracts the dismay of others who lack your willingness to satisfy demands. You may be considered a “bookworm” or put your energies into serious tasks that others disdain, but are sure to have the last laugh when rewards are passed out.

 

 

Venus square Saturn  (Strength:  3.45)

 

(The Rigid)

 

You expect relationships to conform to your standards, which can make a bonding permanent but sacrifice the interaction of stimulation and growth.  In business or personal partnerships, it is impossible to hold a line that is altogether unbending and expect everyone to be happy within its perimeters.  Communication is vital to your unions to find ways to endure that will not make you feel isolated or alone, even though you are bound to one another.

 

 

Moon square Uranus  (Strength:  3.12)

 

(The Dissenter)

 

You are likely to go against the crowd.  In a way, this is expressing your individuality, but you can gain a reputation for being “difficult” instead of “liberated.” An inherent restlessness may spur you to take chances just to see what will “happen” to relationships if you jar their foundations.  On the other hand, you may suddenly feel your needs are not in synch with partners and will look for unusual ways of cementing or dissolving commitments.

 

 

Mercury square Saturn  (Strength:  3.06)

 

(The Immovable)

 

You see self-containment and a stoic ability to survive as virtues.  However, you are apt to lack communication skills which could expand your horizons and save you from feeling isolated from the friendship you crave.  Your sense of responsibility is admirable, but you cannot expect others to accept your over-critical, pessimistic attitudes, whether you mean to project them or not.  Add flexibility and a sense-of-humor for better balance in your seemingly lackluster life.

 

 

Venus trine Uranus  (Strength:  1.93)

 

(The Evergreen)

 

You may make money in unusual ways and attract those who are very different from yourself or have something “new” to offer.  Your desire for excitement and change keeps your relationships forever young.  There is little danger of possessiveness or jealousy.  You may “reward” each other with unusual trinkets that you both enjoy or hold a special meaning for the two of you. If things get dull, you’ll find a way to liven them up and have a variety of friends to help you.

 

 

Moon opposite Neptune  (Strength:  1.78)

 

(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.

 

 

Moon trine Saturn  (Strength:  1.59)

 

(The Grounded)

 

You have a mature outlook and a knack of balancing needs and desires.  You permit yourself latitude to plan ahead and prepare yourself for success.  An image of what is worthwhile in relationships causes you to seriously examine potentials before involving yourself in commitment.  Your excellent discipline may appear as deprivation to others, but the durable results you achieve prove any personal sacrifice rewarding and suit your pragmatic lifestyle to a “T.”

 

Saturn inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  1.48)

 

(The Prisoner)

 

Your constant struggle for freedom convinces you that you could go far if you did not have so many responsibilities. However, you are sometimes overburdened by putting more emphasis on detail than is warranted.  Your fastidiousness can make simplicity complicated, and your ways seem quirky to others, when you demand the “impossible.”  Upheavals which destroy your plans should remind you that sometimes too much attention is worse than no attention at all!

 

Mars inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  1.25)

 

(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.

 

Mercury conjunct Venus  (Strength:  0.51)

 

(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.

 

Sun conjunct Moon  (Strength:  0.21)

 

(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.

 

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 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.

 

 

Lack of Water
