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

 

 

Scorpio Ascendant

 

(The Master)

 

Your unwavering, sometimes piercing gaze states that you are secure in the knowledge of who you are.  You like to have your own way, and if you don’t get it, will devise a dozen different strategies to have it, anyway!  Your strengths are divided, and present two definite sides of the same coin:  You are a loyal friend and a bitter enemy; have high morals or little conscience; and employ your finest or most scurrilous qualities with equal vigor.  The choice is always yours.

 

 

 

Sun in Cancer

 

(Keynote: I FEEL)

 

You are sensitive, nurturing, devoted and caring, but can be moody, petulant, over-emotional and unforgiving.  Your attachment to the home stems from an allegiance to a mother-figure.  Your interest in food may extend to gourmet cooking as a hobby or a career.  You are an excellent business person, with a shrewd and logical view, but tend to keep things to yourself, which is not always wise.  If you have no outlet for your feelings, you may make yourself the victim of digestive ills, or prolonged seclusion may cost you the friendship of those who represent security in your life.

 

 

Sun in the Ninth House

 

(The Professor)

 

Your thirst for learning extends beyond the classroom.  You acquire much of your knowledge from people of different cultures or in foreign lands.  You probably have a flair for languages, making you valuable as a translator.  It is possible you will earn more than one academic degree, and function as a teacher.  One of your most admirable qualities is that, by touching the lives of others, you will come to understand that all men are brothers, separated only by self-imposed restrictions.  Share your wisdom to overcome prejudice and the bigotry which impedes the spiritual growth of all.

 

 

 

Moon in Gemini

 

(The Vigorous)

 

You can live by your wits and talk your way in and/or out of a situation quickly.  You assume whatever image is expected, to your advantage, but can be tempted to deceive others.  These qualities fit you to be a versatile actor or in some profession that requires lively debate, i.e. an attorney, or a politician.  You are as good with your hands as your mind, but lack the perseverance to tackle a job that requires stick-to-itiveness.  If you sight a goal and channel your remarkable mental abilities, you can employ the discipline necessary to accomplish it in record time.

 

 

Moon in the Eighth House

 

(The Manipulator)

 

You are aware from birth of unusual mind-powers which you may use to your own advantage.  Or, since public approval is important to you, you may use them to develop your gifts to benefit others.  If you have an aptitude for E.S.P., it needs careful supervision so that you can control emotional traumas and even episodes of “far memory”, which you cannot explain. In this life, it would appear you have chosen to experience a “sea change into something rich and strange!”

 

 

Mercury in Leo

 

(The Dramatist)

 

You are highly emotional and speak forcefully; your words may not always be tactful, but they do have an impact.  You’re generous with advice, which is usually good and well-taken. Your gift of creativity may be shared and enjoyed by others who appreciate you.  No party is complete without you, but your famous negative qualities of conceit and arrogance may make you an unwelcome guest.  Listen to your keen intuition, which will tell you when it’s time to go home.

 

 

Mercury in the Tenth House

 

(The Reporter)

 

You are almost certain to try for a career in journalism or another form of communication.  Seldom at a loss for words, you can present yourself or others in a flattering light.  You may represent a celebrity or politician, or even become a public figure, yourself. Your restlessness and a need for constant change may be seen as “job-hopping,” so a career permitting you independence and the flexibility you need will allow you to give your best to all concerned.

 

 

Venus in Leo

 

(The Extravagant)

 

Your infatuation with luxury prods you towards compulsive buying.  You enjoy lavishing expensive gifts, dining or theater-going whether you can afford it or not.  If you cannot manage the lifestyle you covet, you may try to create an illusion of opulence as a fantasy world of your own and discover gifts as a decorator or designer.  Consider finding a way to utilize your talents in some form of theater that will attract the attention and plaudits you relish.

 

 

Venus in the Tenth House

 

(The Ambassador)

 

Your talents fit you for a life in the public eye.  You do well in front of an audience of one or one-thousand, because you’re always aware that you are really selling “yourself,” even if it’s to the advantage of a client or a friend.  You’re the perfect person to guide a career to the top and then advance it to something even better.  You’re not an optimist — just someone who appreciates self-worth and is determined to make the most of it.

 

 

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.

 

 

Mars in the Eleventh House

 

(The Campaigner)

 

You will use your ability to work with people to achieve your personal goals.  You may have only a few close friends, because you are too busy enlarging your circle to establish many permanent relationships.  You weren’t born to be a team-player, but will find that support is necessary to further your ambitions.  Cooperation and coordination should be your key words for success and play a major part in your life-pattern of expansion.

 

 

Jupiter in Virgo

 

(The Hopeful)

 

Flashes of optimism will ease your concerns with yourself, allow you to relax, and overcome feelings of apprehension.  By being “yourself,” others can admire your fine qualities of intelligence, insight and practicality.  During those periods you may receive the advances you’ve desired, but were too conservative to promote.

 

 

Jupiter in the Eleventh House

 

(The Faithful Friend)

 

It is not by accident that you have many friends, for you are as loyal and supportive as they are.  You are active socially and many of the events you attend will be charitable in nature.  You extend your own expectations through contacts with others.  While you seldom ask for rewards, you often receive more than you give.

 

 

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.

 

 

Saturn in the Fourth House

 

(The Disciplinarian)

 

You may feel “stuck in a rut” because of a childhood filled with responsibility.  Because of this, it is difficult for you to shed feelings you had when you were “stuck at home.”   At times, you may appear to be cold or too reserved.  Others may assume your spartan tastes are a reflection of your deprivation.  Upon leaving your family, try to put the past behind you and make a life of your own, unencumbered by the restraints of your formative years.

 

 

Uranus in Aries

 

(The Radical)

 

Nothing can stop your headlong plunge into the heart of life.  But, you are very like Icarus in Greek mythology, who flew with wings of wax and fell into the sea when the sun melted them.  Your spirit of adventure, coupled with enormous self-confidence may override prudence.  But, your rash, impulsive ways are also the stuff on which invention thrives. Expect to devote time to prove your concepts before demanding that a conventional world accept them as significant.

 

 

Uranus in the Sixth House

 

(The Job-hopper)

 

You may waste time jumping from job to job as you search for one compatible with your personality.  You resent subjugation by conditions or the will of others.  If you “make do” for the sake of a paycheck, nervous conditions may result because of repressed energy.  You will be happiest with work that allows you flexibility and an opportunity to do things your way.   If that is impossible, at least try to “get away from it all” when away from your work environment.

 

 

Neptune in Virgo

 

(The Caretaker)

 

You are unique in your approach to remedying the world’s ills on a personal level.  You offer your healing gifts to children and animals or the flora and fauna vital to our survival.  You may serve a humane crusade in a mundane job, and receive little credit, other than the satisfaction of participation.  You are highly critical of those who will not “put their money where their mouth is,” and believe in doing what you can to make life easier for other human beings.

 

 

Neptune in the Tenth House

 

(The Bewildered)

 

As if establishing goals for career and initiating a life course were not difficult enough, before you complete your education, you may despair of fitting into ANY role you have chosen.  Rather than change WHAT you are doing, try to discover if you are realistic about your potential and the manner in which you apply yourself.  If you need the advice of a counselor, choose one who does not deal with abstractions, but can suggest a practical means of achieving success.

 

 

Pluto in Cancer

 

(The Resentful)

 

Your family life is in constant flux.  Some of it seems without purpose and can cause you to feel a loss of the love you cherish.  Strong feelings may indicate that you are in some personal way responsible for the estrangement you sense, whether it is evident to others or not.  It is important to find someone older to talk to, particularly in your formative years, who may placate your fears and start you on the road to self-reliance, which is the answer to your problems.

 

 

Pluto in the Ninth House

 

(Don Quixote)

 

Much of your life will be spent in searching for your higher self.  You may be obsessed with a quest for knowledge, that often seems elusive and abstract.  Since nothing superficial will satisfy you, you may delve deeply into philosophy.  If you find some answers, you may try to convince others of their truth.  Avoid becoming fanatical about your discoveries and you may, indeed, find true enlightenment or become active in transforming a decadent society.

 

 

Leo Midheaven

 

You are willing to put energy, dedication, high ideals, and sustained effort into a career.  The causes that you adopt will benefit from your understanding of promotion and publicity.  Often found in positions of authority, you like to deal with big causes and big people.  The image that you present in your career must be an image of which you are proud, which can make you either a charismatic leader to be admired or an authoritative tyrant to be resented.

 

Develop the confidence to allow your creative energies to flow.  You can be the leader with the exciting ideas on which others depend.  You are rarely found in a career situation in which someone else is dictating the hours.  You can bring much joy to others by giving generously of yourself.  But this will not be in an unassuming way, for you do like to stand out from the crowd.  If you have a weakness, it is to cling to your beliefs or an inflated self-image even in the face of obvious failure.  A wise gambler knows when to hold his hand of cards and when to fold them.

 

Occupations consistent with your dramatic style of work include actor, producer, executive, sports personality, politician, entertainer, fiction writer, leader, entrepreneur, minister, promoter, artist, or diplomat.  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 the sun, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

North Node in Aquarius

 

(The Arrogant)

 

You demand center stage, but are disappointed if there is little applause for your flamboyant performance.  As a member of the audience, you must cheer others for their efforts. With a dual perspective, you may realize that you are part of a larger design, devoid of ego or self-aggrandizement. Release your humanitarian instincts to enjoy the Big Show.

 

 

North Node in the Fourth House

 

(The Spoiled Brat)

 

You have been set for a messianic role, perhaps by parent-figures in your life who have overindulged you by doing what you should have done, rather than to let you grow by the doing.  When you see you are NOT too good to step from your pedestal, you can be your own person, form your own standards and contribute what you have to offer by joining your peers.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Mercury opposite Saturn  (Strength:  6.65)

 

(The Despondent)

 

You are hard on yourself, and easily discouraged if you fail to live up to or are not rewarded by your high standards. Use your critical abilities constructively.  You have an unsurpassed eye for detail, accept responsibility and if you are not confident of your abilities will take steps to gain whatever is necessary to fulfill your obligations.  Avoid negative thoughts that lead to depression.  Your many fine attributes will receive the notice you deserve in time.

 

 

Moon trine Saturn  (Strength:  6.59)

 

(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.”

 

 

Moon sextile Mercury  (Strength:  6.36)

 

(The Chatterbox)

 

You fill your active life with people, are seldom at a loss for words, and are expert at making “small talk.”  You enjoy writing letters to your friends filled with amusing trivia and are intuitive about those at a distance as well as acquaintances in your immediate vicinity.  Your easy rapport with others encourages exchanging confidences and feelings and you are comfortable offering and receiving advice.  You consider “everyone” a friend and in turn are a friend to all.

 

 

Sun square Uranus  (Strength:  5.68)

 

(The Daredevil)

 

You are courageous, but may also be rebellious and reckless.  If expecting the unexpected appeals to you, your life should be as thrilling and exciting as you could wish. But, if you try to sail a smooth sea, you may invite upsets that continually disturb your plans.  Changes may damage your originality, if you plunge headlong into the unknown, but upon examination may provide you with the means to mold your life-direction until it accommodates your special cast.

 

 

Sun conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  4.39)

 

(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.

 

 

Mercury conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  2.81)

 

(The Introspective)

 

You are intent on improving your future, so continually re-evaluate your plans.  You are flexible, so will not miss many opportunities or become complaisant.  Your powers of communication make you an effective speaker.  You usually prepare what you will say, though you can “think on your feet” and have an ample store of information at your command.  If you are reasonable in your expectations, you should achieve the success that is ever-important to you.

 

 

Moon square Neptune  (Strength:  2.16)

 

(The Self-deluder)

 

You may daydream and not understand mood swings that come upon you suddenly.  Others may think you “peculiar” if you express yourself as a psychic when you follow hunches that are generally undependable.  If you become absorbed with your “powers,” you may choose illusion over reality or become part of sects that use drugs in unhealthy rituals to increase awareness.  You must learn to develop concentration and the ability to distinguish fact from fiction.

 

 

Uranus square Pluto  (Strength:  1.87)

 

(The Run-away)

 

You are affected strongly by your environment, are opinionated, and if maladjusted, may liberate yourself from restrictions at an early age.  You find it difficult to adjust to changes that you do not originate.  The problem is that you may jump from a frying pan into a fire if you are not mature enough to have a real understanding of evolvement.  You identify with your peers.  Like the “flower children” of the `60’s, you can embrace anarchism rather than transformation.

 

 

Venus opposite Saturn  (Strength:  1.31)

 

(The Reluctant)

 

You are practical and if you have creative talent will use it for profit.  You have a need for balance in relationships, but continually test them as if you cannot trust them to survive.  Develop a tolerance for the feelings of others who can be hurt or put off by your seeming detachment.  Find ways to get past your retiring nature and indulge your needs to interact with others or you may be lonely with no one but yourself to blame for your isolation.

 

 

Jupiter sextile Pluto  (Strength:  0.58)

 

(The Improver)

 

No matter how good something is, you will try to make it better, and often do.  Your creativity earns you respect and praise.  Others are happy to join in revamping circumstances, or the way world conditions affect your world.  You may lead a campaign or cause because you are dedicated to whatever you inject with your dynamic energy and determination to succeed.  Sharing power can be a learning experience in which you will expand opportunities by joining forces in a common effort.

 

 

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  0.54)

 

(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 trine Mars  (Strength:  0.39)

 

(The Spearhead)

 

Your high physical energy propels you to the head of the crowd.  Whatever you do will be aggressively active, and sometimes competitive, but not necessarily combative. Relationships with others are intense, as are your feelings.  You have the strength of your convictions at all times, but rather than force them on others, will convince them to see things your way because of your inherent enthusiasm.  You are a lover of life, and l


ife, in turn, loves you back!

 

Balance of Elements and Modalities

 

Abundant Water

 

In your case, the heart rules the head.  Your emotional drives are strong and you act primarily on the basis of your feelings.  Whether your feelings are purely personal, interpersonal, or transpersonal is up to you, but generally you are a life-oriented person who feels keenly and who acts to support your family, friends, and community.  You are happiest when you are in a caring relationship with a significant other.  That person should be comfortable with the emotional closeness that you bring to relationships, while providing the structure or inspiration that you need.  Some of your friends will not be as comfortable with emotional closeness as you are, and you will have to respect their boundaries.  You have probably learned over the years how to keep your sensitive nature from being hurt.  Don’t permanently withdraw, but find the people with whom and the environment in which you can be yourself.

 

Because of your sensitivity, you easily pick up others’ thoughts and feelings.  You can anticipate others’ needs before they have expressed them.  You can usually rely on your intuition when it comes to forecasting the outcome of personal and career decisions.  If you decide to use your psychic abilities for healing, learn to let go of the negative feelings that you process from others.  Since you are so sensitive, find quiet moments for private introspection in which you can reconnect with what you feel instead of what others feel.  You also find it revitalizing to be around large bodies of water.

 

You do have a need to stop and think things through before acting.  Make the effort to communicate with others who may have a more objective viewpoint or who could see solutions that elude you.  You can sometimes be criticized for acting from a purely personal perspective, which you could avoid by learning and respecting society’s larger viewpoint.  You can be very creative in finding paths to your personal goals.  Keep the larger viewpoint in mind and later you will not have to try to rationalize to others why you chose those paths.

 

 

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 Earth

 

You may be so focused on the “bigger picture” that you have difficulty managing the many details of life.  Balancing your checkbook or leaving your bedroom clean may seem beyond your abilities.  Other tasks may be important, but you find it hard to concentrate long enough to complete them.  Knowing your own lack of concentration and self-discipline, you may cling to established routines because you know that you are able to do important things through force of habit.  If you do not flit from job to job, you could hold onto a job or a relationship for too long because you do not trust that you will be secure without it.  Your lack of real world perspective may make it hard for you to distinguish that which really matters from that which is unimportant, so that you sometimes focus on small things while leaving the really big things undone.  You may say that you care about money, but unless you have abundant planets in the houses of Substance, you will not execute a detailed plan to get it.  If you can avoid driving them crazy, enlist the help of those more grounded than yourself in order to turn your inspirations into reality.

 

A lack of planets in Earth signs can be offset by an Earth sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Substance.

 

 

Abundant Substance

 

With abundant planets in the houses of substance, you know your place in the material world.  You know how to extract value and give value via your business, work, and career activities.  The rules of the world come easily to you.  Others admire and depend on your hard work and practical nature.  If you get depressed, make time for recreation and family.

 

 

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.

 

 

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.

 

 

Balanced House Modalities

 

In your chart, the planets are distributed in a balanced manner between the angular, succedent, and cadent houses.  If there is any imbalance in the placements of the planets in the zodiac sign modalities, this will help to offset that imbalance.  You are able to strike a healthy balance between facing challenges, enjoying life, and listening to others.
