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 Pisces

(The Wishful)

You go with your emotions and change your desires from moment to moment, but are always hopeful for the future. You are sensitive and easily discouraged by rebuffs; your potent imagination makes you susceptible to imagined hurts and slights. You may adopt food or fantasies as a panacea for disappointments in the love and understanding that are as important to you as breathing. Look for solid ground on which to stand. You can build a life that is productive and pleasurable by giving your artistic talents commercial expression to bolster your ego as well as your purse.
Mercury in Taurus

(The Dedicated)

You believe in the “golden rule” and extend the benefit of the doubt. You may be slow to anger, but can be physically forceful; will forgive, but never forget an injustice. Your powers of rationalization demand that you take time to prepare ahead for any task you undertake, which may be mistaken for procrastination. If you have a weak point, it is being too set in your ways, but on the plus side, once committed, you can be depended upon to follow through.
Venus in Pisces

(The Compassionate)

You often realize the needs of others before they ask your help and are on hand to volunteer your time, money and services for those less fortunate than yourself. Emotions overrule your practicality in most cases and sentimental compassion may override personal relationships. If you are “unlucky” in love, perhaps you should not sacrifice it on the altar of public charity, but also acknowledge the needs of those who care for you and deserve consideration.
Mars in Leo

(The Grandee)

You recognize your potential and will find creative ways of enlisting the aid of those who can promote your success. If there is risk involved in your rise, you will enjoy the adventure, but may suffer the “slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.” You share your victories, but conceit can cost you needed support. You may also be too quick to invite love affairs which go nowhere, but will waste your time and damage your ego. Take your time. You deserve the best.
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 conjunct Venus (Strength: 6.62)

(The Reveler)

You are a party-goer, a party-giver and may exploit your social abilities in a commercial venture. Shopping for the trappings that call attention to your good taste is a way of life. You are usually in good spirits and good health and are depressed only when you feel neglected or unable to indulge yourself in the luxuries money can buy. Use your talents to create beauty. Your artistic gifts can compensate for an empty purse and bring you the praise of others to enjoy.
Sun trine Uranus (Strength: 6.38)

(The Electrifier)

You are a motivating force, and often inspire others to follow your lead. Never content with the “status quo,” a search for enlightenment can lead you to explore unusual ways of getting in touch with yourself. Beware of “kooky” cults or schemes, but uplifting studies can be helpful. One of these may be astrology. If you are not productive, restless energy may appear as nervous disorders which can only be remedied by steps you take to restore your cosmic balance.
Mercury square Saturn (Strength: 4.35)

(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.
Mars square Neptune (Strength: 3.15)

(The Smoke Screen)

You often deal from weakness instead of the real strength you possess, or hide behind the mask of a bully or someone too idealistic to be practical. You fear if others see the “real” you, they will not appreciate your very worthwhile qualities and take advantage. Stop playing games if you wish to succeed in relationships. Decide to face issues honestly, or enlist the proper support to assist you over the hurdles and keep you on the straight course you must travel to achieve success.
Mercury opposite Neptune (Strength: 0.65)

(The Dazed)

Your gentle nature forbids harsh or uncharitable treatment. Confusion may make a formal education, direction of goals or a life-work unrealistic, unless your sensitivity is taken into account. You have a high spiritual calling, and are intuitive and compassionate, which often guides you into practical channels where you may use your talents to heal mankind. Special gifts need special development. There are those who will understand, encourage and abet you.
Uranus in a quintile aspect to Neptune (Strength: 0.60)

(The Pupil)

You will undergo radical transformation more than once as you progress from neophyte to adept in the school of life. You look for new and different ways to relate to your place in the sun and the universe, and will be happier in philosophies or religions that express “new thought” than in traditional frameworks. You will attract unusual companions who are involved in the same kind of metaphysical or esoteric studies that you explore; you will support each other in your findings.
Jupiter inconjunct Uranus (Strength: 0.21)

(The Overeager)

Your optimism is your weak point, as well as the thing that keeps you going against all odds. If one door closes, you are sure to try to open a better one. In spite of the fact that you often fail because you are ahead of your time, you believe that some day your ship will come in. Prepare to unload it. If you can stop overextending yourself, you may be in the right place at the right time. Experience will prove that sometimes an element of fortune is necessary to succeed.
Moon conjunct Jupiter (Strength: 0.13)

(The Equipollent)

You have a strong conviction that what you put into something will be returned in equal measure. In most cases you are right, and since you project confidence, enthusiasm, nurturing and good will, that is what you attract. However, you must avoid temptations to acquire “too much of a good thing.” You are, by nature, given to excesses. Don’t allow your optimism to lure you with empty hopes and promises into depths beyond your reach and over your head.
Balance of Elements and Modalities

Abundant Earth

You are in touch with the real world. More than others, you know where the rubber meets the road; persistent study has shown you how to make things happen in a practical sort of way. Your nature is well-suited to the adult world of responsibilities, which you master at a young age. Not impulsive with your resources, you would only start a business after careful study, but you would manage it well. You enjoy the satisfaction that comes not just from starting projects, but from finishing them. Your steady, organized approach is actually more productive in the long-run than is that of the quick, flashy types. You know how to establish a pace and keep it.

Do not let your awareness of the material world make you unappreciative of the spiritual plane that underpins our life here — to which others may be more sensitive than you. Practicality is fine, but try to understand that dreams, feelings, and enthusiasms are also important and should not be squelched. Others might surprise you with what their optimistic risk-taking is able to achieve. You can be so cautious and reserved that some people find you conservative and dull. If you yourself become bored or depressed, admit that security isn’t everything and try to be more spontaneous. Open up to the new and follow your bliss (in a careful sort of way).
Abundant 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.
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 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 Fixed

With an abundance of planets in Fixed signs, you have the staying power to complete a project, grow a family, or expand a business. Your strength is what friends notice most about you. You have definite values; you focus your affections on the people and things that are part of your team. Friendships formed over time are important to you. You may be found at the center of a circle of friends, a large family, a government agency, or a business. You understand the contribution that stability and security make to prosperity and growth. It throws you off-balance when friends are not as reliable as you are or when love and ideals are not part of your life. Concentrate on developing confidence in yourself, a wholesome world for your family or group, and binding others to you with love. If you have a weakness, it is trouble changing or listening when people tell you a better way to do things. You can handle this weakness by empowering your team, as among them will be individuals who are good at reacting to a constantly changing world.
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.
Lack of Cardinal

With a lack of planets in Cardinal signs, you may have trouble starting things. You may be timid about developing and carrying out plans. You would prefer to let others break the first ground of a new venture, so that you can pitch in and help once the outlines of the venture are clear. You probably lack confidence in your mastery of the real world and survival in it. You may substitute a rich inner life for your lack of action in the outer world. In its highest form, you may be unusually creative or spiritually committed. Ideas filter up as you focus on ‘being’ instead of ‘doing’. Watch out for the lower manifestations, which are delegating tasks to others and pitying yourself over the lot that befalls you in life as a result of your lack of direction and initiative. Your different perspective on life gives you valuable insights that let you make real contributions wherever you are.

A lack of planets in the Cardinal signs can be offset by a Cardinal sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the Angular houses.
