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

 

 

Taurus Ascendant

 

(The Steadfast)

 

There is a look of substance about you.  Others admire your thick hair, which may be curly or wavy.  Though slow to anger, you may use force to defend yourself when aroused.  You are resolutely stubborn, and generous beyond your means, to the point of being foolish.  Others value your friendship and you are a welcome guest.  You would rather be a “boss” than an employee, but will always give your best to a job, because you don’t know how to do anything “half-way.”

 

 

 

Sun in Pisces

 

(Keynote: I BELIEVE)

 

You are intuitive, sympathetic, kind and romantic.  You can be insecure, changeable, deceitful and moody.  Your ambitions often prod you into an early success.  You dislike working in controlled environments and have an active imagination that can work for or against you.  You can create problems by being indecisive or unreliable.  Use logic over emotion when your overwhelming compassion for others indicates personal sacrifice.  You are blessed with spiritual insight, inviting you to live life fully and not on the fringes.  Your faith in “tomorrow” will help you to do so.

 

 

Sun in the Eleventh House

 

(The People-pleaser)

 

You are everybody’s friend, but not always a friend to everybody.  You often value friendship above love and may choose to keep your friends for a lifetime.  Quick to bond, you may be equally quick to separate from a relationship when it appears you have nothing in common.  You will doubtless find a place in a variety of social and service clubs, and hold more than one office.  You adapt easily and fit into almost any group because you know how to get the most out of a situation, refuse to compromise your ideals, and maintain harmony by finding values to which all can relate.

 

 

 

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 First House

 

(The Mystic)

 

You value the counsel of a mother-figure, but may not take her suggestions.  Women will always boost your sense of spiritual self-worth.  You are deeply aware of your superb intuition, but are inconsistent, so may not use it to advantage.  If you can’t understand your actions, consider your rising sign, since you closely identify with your ASC. You are affected by the emotions of others.  Try to tune into their needs and help to achieve them.

 

 

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.

 

 

Mercury in the Eleventh House

 

(The Mingler)

 

You are at your best when your hopes and wishes mesh with those of others.  Your friends are like you, so you are convivially compatible.  Together, you solve dilemmas, further ideas, organize and socialize — but you may see things too much alike to expand in another direction.  You exemplify a fraternity; your parties are delightful, but with only the same guests invited, may in time become static and leave you longing for the variety missing from your fun.

 

 

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.

 

 

Venus in the Eleventh House

 

(The Organizer)

 

You are at your best working with groups of people and enjoy seeing that things go smoothly in meetings or social functions.  As a committee head, you see both sides of every question so can arbitrate disagreements and keep peace in the ranks.  As a fund-raiser, you are without equal.  However, you may spend as much or more than you take in because of your determination that when you are in charge, everything will be the best and everyone will have a good time.

 

 

Mars in Virgo

 

(The Indispensable)

 

You perform “to the letter” and often to an “nth” degree that is unnecessary.  You seem to have unlimited physical resources, take orders well and respect regimen, but may have difficulty in relating to co-workers.  In arguments, you express quickly, accurately, and, too often, sarcastically. You are a valuable helpmate in personal relationships, though a need to avoid expressing yourself in a superior manner should be recognized and modified to an acceptable level.

 

 

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 Taurus

 

(The Show-off)

 

You can be too extravagant because of your love of luxury, but if you choose to spend your hard-earned money, who’s to say it’s not your privilege?  You can be too aggressive in getting what you want and too stubborn to change your mind after you get it.  Again, since you are a super-achiever, who can criticize you for doing things your way?

 

 

Jupiter in the Twelfth House

 

(The Good Samaritan)

 

You enjoy doing good works anonymously and receive pleasure from knowledge that you benefit others.  You may choose programs of institutional reform or a career in medicine to indulge your charitable work.  Through acts of mercy, you feed your soul and will find numerous ways to swell your spirit.

 

 

Saturn in Pisces

 

(The Stabilizer)

 

Although it is in your disposition to look to others for support, you can search for your independence and find it.  You may turn moodiness into meditation and benefit from time spent with yourself by listening to “small voices” within that you have not had the courage to hear.  You may cling to destructive emotional patterns, but can develop a will to win.  This has little to do with rewards, other than to at last glimpse who you are and delight in the knowledge.

 

 

Saturn in the Eleventh House

 

(The Fund-raiser)

 

You are essentially a loner and don’t adapt easily to performing as part of a unit unless you are in the driver’s seat.  You are likely to hold a responsible office in any group you join and will perform your duties flawlessly, particularly those of treasurer or of handling details to boost organizational funds.  Once your peers are convinced of your merits, you should have no trouble taking your place as a valued member of any society.

 

 

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 Fifth House

 

(The Child)

 

You are always in search of amusement of a “different” kind, and may originate innovative games.  No matter your age, children find you fascinating and accept you readily.  Your own children may be as full of surprises as you, yourself. Because of your many facets, you project whatever image you desire, with the skill of an actor.  You may fall in and out of love easily because of your lack of commitment.  A desire for too much freedom can result in a lonely future.

 

 

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 Sixth House

 

(The Sensitive)

 

You may suffer allergies or dietary problems that are difficult to diagnose from early childhood.  You must be careful about ingesting drugs, even if they are prescribed by a physician.  A tender heart may lead you to work for those less fortunate than yourself, either as a career, or an act of charity.  Those who oppose you as “too good to be true” are envious of the satisfaction derived from your unselfish service.  Ignore them and enjoy your good works.

 

 

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 Fifth House

 

(The Extremist)

 

You season your life with a heavy hand and tend to exaggerate conditions.  In your many love affairs, you will feel that each is “the one” and may cling to an ideal past the time when reality should govern your actions.  You may also invite power struggles by insisting that your way is the only way and your truth the only truth.  But, one thing must be said:  Your enthusiasm for living is unquestioned and you get the most out of every emotion-charged moment.

 

 

Aquarius Midheaven

 

You will flourish best in a career that takes advantage of your inventiveness and originality.  You have a need to be unconventional and different.  You see your career field from a refreshingly independent perspective and make original contributions.  You don’t like working in a highly structured environment, so you often work as an independent free-lancer.  Driven to follow your inner light, others can consider your interests eccentric; you may treat them rudely.  But at your healthiest, you are also a humanitarian who contributes to civic causes and whose many career contacts make you an effective networker.

 

Your career can be based on ideas or on service to society.  To achieve your greatest success, you must dare to be your true, unique self.  More than others, you understand Joseph Campbell’s advice, “follow your bliss.”  Working out your ideas on your own, you can produce results that will benefit humanity.  Pitfalls to be overcome include selfishness, pride, and the desire for power.  You may originate numerous ideas, but forget them soon after conception.  Scientific objectivity carried to the extreme could make you cold, impersonal, or arrogant.  Do not allow yourself to become isolated, but stay in touch with those on whose behalf you are laboring.

 

Occupations consistent with your unusual, independent style of work include entertainer, literary personality, athlete, educator, inventor, occultist, astrologer, social worker, social scientist, vocational counselor, personnel specialist, benevolent or fraternal society administrator, conference organizer, or strategist.  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 Uranus, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

North Node in Gemini

 

(The Whirlwind)

 

You try to stay so busy that personal commitment is impossible.  If you take on more than you can handle, you cannot blame yourself for “failures.”  You feel your education is inadequate.  True communication is never one-sided.  Allow others to voice their questions and opinions while you prepare answers gleaned from the worthwhile knowledge you possess.

 

 

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 opposite Mars  (Strength:  6.77)

 

(The Appraiser)

 

You must not only know who you are and what you want, but should examine the values of others to bring your life into balance.  You need support, but seem to attract those with opposite views and will often find challenges to your ego.  Seriously consider whether your beliefs are worth fighting for, for you see differences as personal affronts.  Defend only what is really important to you.  “All roads lead to Rome”, and you may travel more than one to get there.

 

 

Sun trine Neptune  (Strength:  5.94)

 

(The Harmonious)

 

Your innate idealism is spiritually inspired.  You believe in the “good, the true and the beautiful.”  Your relationships symbolize a wish for accord with all humanity. Do not waste your gift of a lively imagination in idle daydreams.  Coupled with an acute business acumen, it may take you far in the material world.  But, at some time you will discover a need for metaphysical growth and find a channel for expression that may be unusual but of benefit to others.

 

 

Jupiter opposite Neptune  (Strength:  4.69)

 

(The Wastrel)

 

It is difficult for you to see “the trees for the forest” sometimes, because of your inclination to put a mask on reality.  You mean well, but are extremely idealistic and can become lost in generalities, since you seldom “fine tune” the picture.  Despite your abstractions, you are intuitive and may take risks that pay off.  If you cannot be sure your plans are practical, take the advice of someone with more experience to keep you grounded, with a realistic chance at success.

 

 

Venus conjunct Saturn  (Strength:  4.56)

 

(The Devoted)

 

Others may not understand your serious views, but your reserved attitude indicates a desire for a loyalty as unflagging as your own.  You will be careful about declaring your feelings until you are reasonably sure of your ground and are satisfied that you can justify or cement differences between you.  If you decide that a relationship will not survive the test of time, you will opt to dissolve it without regret, feeling there is nothing substantial to pursue.

 

 

Venus opposite Uranus  (Strength:  3.86)

 

(The Disparate)

 

You must beware of “get rich quick” schemes and cautious in your selection of partners.  Only time will distinguish between a harmonious relationship and a passing fancy.  Curb your impulsiveness if you are attracted to those too different in background and values.  Question whether you can adjust to inherent challenges.  If you cannot settle for a conventional union, you may avoid commitment by indulging in improper mergers or with those unavailable as permanent companions.

 

 

Uranus conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  3.59)

 

(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.

 

 

Mars trine Jupiter  (Strength:  3.36)

 

(The Positive)

 

You have a nearly-perfect balance between timing and action, which means that you see very clearly what must be done and do it!  Because of your optimism, you easily gain the confidence of others.  You are ambitious within reason and self-sufficient enough to take responsibility.  In disputes, you often look at the larger picture, convince others of your good intentions and regardless of results, enhance your image of good sportsmanship, which earns you additional respect.

 

 

Sun opposite Pluto  (Strength:  3.07)

 

(The Tempter)

 

You are almost certain to attract power struggles with others and determined to have your own way, “no matter what,” sometimes by devious means.  You are dealing with blind ambition, which does not allow you to see that you may be in the wrong, but refuse to give up or modify your personal desires.  Examine your motives; then ask yourself if there are more reasonable alternatives to your predicaments.  Without some adjustment, you can do yourself irreparable harm.

 

 

Moon square Saturn  (Strength:  2.93)

 

(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.

 

 

Mars sextile Neptune  (Strength:  2.71)

 

(The Redeemer)

 

You feel destined to accomplish a spiritual mission, but may resist necessary self-sacrifice to achieve your aims.  It is through service to others that you will change your own course and expand your views.  You can be confused by those who misconstrue your intentions, or if they feel threatened, can work against you in an underhanded way.  Salvation has a price.  By adhering to your principles, you may attain your purpose and elevate others to your significant state of being.

 

 

Sun sextile Jupiter  (Strength:  2.59)

 

(The Fortunate)

 

You will find and associate with those with whom you can combine your ideas and efforts to everyone’s advantage.  You often attract those in authority who can further your efforts.  Because your plans are well formed, they usually bear fruit, giving you a reputation of being successful in whatever you tackle.  You learn and grow from your affiliations, and often conquer those who oppose you by inviting them to join in your joyous pursuit of the “good life!”

 

 

Saturn opposite Uranus  (Strength:  2.42)

 

(The Self-reliant)

 

You have the ability to do a good job of balancing innovation with practicality on your own.  But, you need as much structure as room to grow and must depend on others to provide sturdy foundations.  Feelings of restriction, resentment and restlessness can emerge as you begin to expand. Realize that you have time to earn your freedom.  Redefine and improve rather than destroy valuable experiences which can prepare you for the independence you crave.

 

Mars conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.31)

 

(The Adamant)

 

You are convinced that doing things “your way” is the best, if not the only way and will try to impress upon others that their opinions are worth little.  You may feel strongly that you can literally transform those who choose to follow your lead for the better and will work unceasingly in their behalf.  In reality, you may be reinforcing ego energies which need evaluation.  Perhaps you must adjust more realistically to circumstances before you can comply with your ego demands.

 

Moon square Venus  (Strength:  1.49)

 

(The Impassioned)

 

You are intent on romance, but may be too fervent to realize you are over-protective or possessive of your loved-one.  If you do not have a relationship, you will feel out of balance until you attract a partner, and will make every effort to do so.  Your feelings may stem from a parent-child affinity if you are sentimental about the marriage of your parents.  Be sure you are acting from real love more than sentiment or need if you consider entering a commitment.

 

Venus opposite Pluto  (Strength:  1.45)

 

(The Tempestuous)

 

Your passionate energies need evaluation.  Learn to measure yourself and your standards honestly.  Hidden conflicts may be hard to pinpoint because they are an inherent part of you.  Intense jealousy can motivate violent tantrums or actions that must be dealt with in a logical manner as forces within you that need release.  Learn early to take responsibility for your own emotions.  Desirable unions can end tragically if you resist self-control.

 

Moon sextile Mercury  (Strength:  1.20)

 

(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 opposite Uranus  (Strength:  0.67)

 

(The Destroyer)

 

Outside influences may lead you to believe that upsets are inevitable.  In reality, unexpressed feelings result in tensions you find it difficult to acknowledge.  You may not recognize any pace but “fast-forward,” and ignore a need to “relax and enjoy.”  Running away is not an answer to problems.  Interactions with partners can indicate how you relate to the universe.  You are a unique individual who can invent the ways and means necessary to align yourself with the cosmos.

 

Jupiter conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  0.39)

 

(The Expansive)

 

You desire the best of all-possible worlds and can’t settle for less.  You may depend on others to provide your needs rather than to put your own energy into your projects.  You are surprised if they balk or object, since you reason you would do the same for them under similar circumstances –and you would!  You are never satisfied with current achievements and will spend much of your life employing an “extra stretch” to extend your knowledge and share your findings.

 

Moon conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  0.11)

 

(The Subterfuge)

 

You may disguise your emotionally-sensitive nature in the extreme, either as bravado or in a submissive attitude.  The truth is that it is difficult for you to let others in on your feelings or talk about your problems with those who might understand.  An emphasis on possessions can weaken your intuitive powers or the ethereal nature which makes you mediumistic.  By observing the needs of others, you may be able to communicate openly and relieve your burdened spirit.

 

Saturn opposite Pluto  (Strength:  0.02)

 

(The Diligent)

 

You will work hard to achieve success, often at the same job for a very long time.  You tend to extremes and must be careful that you are not a workaholic with health problems resulting from exhaustion.  Later, you will be tested on achievements which may or may not grant you the rewards you have earned.   Discard blinders which narrow your perspective with few options open.  A “one-trick pony” has little appeal after he performs to his best, but limited ability.

 

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 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 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.

 

 

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 Relationships

 

With abundant planets in these houses, relationships and communications with others are likely to be central to your life.  You can help others by exchanging ideas and making connections between people.  You will probably maintain active contact with a wide circle of relatives, friends and acquaintances.  You keep abreast of new information via various media and your friends.

 

 

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 Substance

 

You are not the most grounded or practical person.  The rules of this material world are not well known to you.  Others may admire your dreams, but they could be impossible dreams.  You may find it difficult to choose, plan, and work towards a career or vocation.

 

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

 

 

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.

 

 

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.

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 Pisces

 

(Keynote: I BELIEVE)

 

You are intuitive, sympathetic, kind and romantic.  You can be insecure, changeable, deceitful and moody.  Your ambitions often prod you into an early success.  You dislike working in controlled environments and have an active imagination that can work for or against you.  You can create problems by being indecisive or unreliable.  Use logic over emotion when your overwhelming compassion for others indicates personal sacrifice.  You are blessed with spiritual insight, inviting you to live life fully and not on the fringes.  Your faith in “tomorrow” will help you to do so.

 

 

 

Moon in Libra

 

(The Dependent)

 

You have a burning desire to please and will go to great lengths to do so.  You cultivate an image of glamour and success, are probably a compulsive buyer and enjoy wearing distinctive and expensive clothes.  You attract easily, and are popular, but fickle.  You may be over-critical of your partners until you realize that, because you are easily-led, you need someone to help you make decisions.  You are either too lazy or insecure to try to develop much self-reliance.  A strong instinct that a special relationship is “fated” may lead you to the proper person to be your life-mate.

 

 

Mercury in Aquarius

 

(The Capricious)

 

You may have the inventive qualities of an Edison or an Einstein, but instead of being an “egghead” may end with “egg on your face.”  You look towards tomorrow, but seldom at yesterday, where you might profit from experience.  You are often seen as “unfeeling” because you neglect loved ones in taking the freedom to be a friend to others.  Include those closest to you in your aspirations.  They admire your unusual gifts and offer the support you need for success.

 

 

Venus in Capricorn

 

(The Austere)

 

You are extremely aware of social status and chances to improve your position.  Your determination and ambition are admired by your business associates.  You may marry the “boss’s daughter/son”.  Once committed, you are unswervingly faithful and loyal, but your marriage can be “an arrangement” rather than a love-match.  You will make your family proud, but may deprive your spouse or others of affection, due to your emotional nature, which is often severe and unyielding.

 

 

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 Cancer

 

(The Weight-watcher)

 

You may attract and absorb too much of a good thing, if you are a gourmet cook, or take the world’s burdens on your sympathetic shoulders.  Your acumen in business is unquestioned, but without someone to share your triumphs, you become disconsolate.  What you do for others is done from love; a day without friends is indeed a day without sunshine.

 

 

Saturn in Scorpio

 

(The Forceful)

 

The powerful image you create tempts you to thrust your ideas or will upon others, not always to their benefit — or YOURS — but just for a show of strength.  Your determination can make enemies and undermine your fine executive abilities.  Try to develop the compassion and flexibility inherent in all successful leaders.  Otherwise, your effectiveness will be limited.  You will be a champion without honor and must look to yourself for any rewards you receive.

 

 

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.

 

 

Neptune in Pisces

 

(The Pensive)

 

Influenced by early programming, you need the support of a family.  If you do not have kin, you may “adopt” a family, perhaps people you have befriended, who return your kindness. Your concentrative powers can work for or against you.  “Bad luck” is usually the result of negatives projected by you or absorbed from others.  Don’t weaken your ability with self-pity; use “bad” feelings as cues to pursue knowledge of spiritual development seldom afforded the uninitiated.

 

 

Pluto in Capricorn

 

(The Utilizer)

 

Your understanding, patience and expertise will be called into play as others recognize your capabilities.  No personal experience is wasted as you prepare to aid in structuring a practical world with moral standards that are uncompromisingly spiritual.  Your obligations may be self-imposed, but will receive a devotion to duty uniquely yours. At some time, that may come close to meaning “do or die” in your attempts to enlighten mankind and alleviate its burdens.

 

 

North Node in Libra

 

(The Selfless)

 

You will not understand why others are promoted while you are passed by.  You must change an attitude that the world revolves around you.  Jealousy or resentment depletes your strength which should be used, not for your purposes alone, but to do for others what they cannot do.  You will acquire the stature you long for by balancing your needs with others.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Mercury square Saturn  (Strength:  5.81)

 

(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.

 

 

Moon trine Mercury  (Strength:  5.74)

 

(The Synchronizer)

 

You are in touch with yourself and your needs which affords you a state of balance.   Because you are at peace, you are able to accomplish tasks with a minimum of bother, and express clearly and concisely so that others accept your ideas and grant your requests.  You may travel or communicate with people impulsively, because “something tells you” to do so. Flashes of this same intuition are useful in divining the needs of others and fulfilling them before you are asked.

 

 

Jupiter square Uranus  (Strength:  5.41)

 

(The Obstacles)

 

Disruptions may suddenly crop up to spoil your best-laid plans.  Allowing a margin for error is not likely to resolve dilemmas as your stumbling blocks are usually from “left field” and are not only unexpected, but of a different nature than is readily anticipated.  Despite this, you have the confidence and optimism to pursue your goals.  Because of the uniqueness of your deterrents, you will, of necessity, find innovative solutions to resolve your problems.

 

 

Moon square Venus  (Strength:  4.86)

 

(The Impassioned)

 

You are intent on romance, but may be too fervent to realize you are over-protective or possessive of your loved-one.  If you do not have a relationship, you will feel out of balance until you attract a partner, and will make every effort to do so.  Your feelings may stem from a parent-child affinity if you are sentimental about the marriage of your parents.  Be sure you are acting from real love more than sentiment or need if you consider entering a commitment.

 

 

Jupiter opposite Pluto  (Strength:  3.97)

 

(The Outsider)

 

You may feel that what you accomplish, you do with great opposition from those who do not understand or agree with what they consider your bizarre demeanor.  If you resent their criticism and stubbornly defend your ideas, you may do yourself great harm and face being ostracized permanently. You will make more headway with fewer bruises if you modify your behavior toward others who may lend their friendship and support, rather than trying to fight the world alone.

 

 

Uranus square Pluto  (Strength:  3.38)

 

(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.

 

 

Sun trine Mars  (Strength:  3.17)

 

(The Self-possessed)

 

You are confident, but not often “cocky.”  You attract the opposite sex and others who admire your independence, though you adjust readily to partnerships which increase your scope.  You review your progress regularly and update your potential, so are prepared for achievement without egoistic pitfalls to delay your success.  You may excel in physical sports, but true to your pattern are well-rehearsed, and play for the challenge of a game — not for the win, alone.

 

 

Mars conjunct North Node  (Strength:  2.97)

 

(The Champion)

 

Others willingly follow your lead and believe in you because you radiate confidence.  You are free with your advice and firm in your decisions.  You enjoy helping the “underdog,” and revel in recognition for your achievements.  You can be intolerant and take criticism badly, if at all.  Your aggressive outlook can draw the respect you enjoy or label you as a bully.  The choices you make determine your success. Once the die is cast, there is no turning back.

 

 

Sun conjunct Neptune  (Strength:  2.86)

 

(The Metaphysician)

 

A low ego profile suits you to administer unselfishly to the world’s ills.  However, you must first overcome your own limitations.  Temptations to yield to low physical energy, a genius for deception and an addictive personality may force difficult choices.  If you serve those similarly afflicted, you will exhibit a compassion only you may understand.  Your sacrifices will be rewarded with a serenity known by few, but full payment will be exacted for your indiscretions.

 

 

Mercury trine Mars  (Strength:  2.06)

 

(The Lecturer)

 

You are sure of your facts and have the courage of your convictions, which makes you a competent speaker.  While you are confident, you are seldom combative.  Your perception is keen and you adapt quickly, so will be as at home in foreign climates as you are on familiar ground.  You enjoy negotiating and winning disputes.  Should you have to compromise your beliefs, you will not be discouraged but resolve to shore up your defenses and do better next time.

 

 

Moon conjunct Mars  (Strength:  1.80)

 

(The Tempest)

 

You may hold angry feelings beyond the time you should and suddenly explode with the force of a hurricane.  Those closest to you will receive the brunt of your fury, since the cause of your displeasure is usually very personal and you will not display it in public.  Inner disquiet may be exchanged for productive energy in physical work.  If controlled, real strength may evolve from the same ego energy you tend to exhibit in a subjectively-negative manner.

 

 

Venus sextile Saturn  (Strength:  0.41)

 

(The Worthwhile)

 

You will investigate practical ways to assure that your relationships are rewarding.  You easily express what you are willing to give and what you expect to receive before strains are put on a partnership because of “who owes what to who.” You always try to “get it right the first time,” by attending to details and eliminating mistakes.  You are realistic rather than idealistic, and conventional rather than radical, so your foundations seldom crumble and your investments pay off.

 

Jupiter trine Neptune  (Strength:  0.08)

 

(The Ideologist)

 

You have wonderful ideas to benefit humanity, with plans to match, but must act upon them or your good intentions will fall by the wayside.  You may get no further than to attract those who will help you improve yourself or interest you in metaphysics to further your insight into spiritual or esoteric mysteries.  If you inject pragmatism and the drive to succeed into your fondest dreams, you can enlist the support of others and have every c

hance of making them come true.

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

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 Aquarius

 

(Keynote:  I KNOW)

 

You are optimistic, innovative, philosophical and humane, but are capable of being eccentric, indifferent, rebellious and temperamental.  You are motivated by inherent feelings that amount to enlightenment.   Your interest in humanity puts you in contact with a variety of people to whom you can relate with equality.  Your dispassionate nature confuses those who would form attachments.  Like an astronaut, you expect your partners to respect the independence you treasure and permit the freedom your creativity demands.  Ideally, you will one day contribute your special gifts to the evolution of man.

 

 

 

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 Pisces

 

(The Unique)

 

Your uncanny intuition and psychic feelings must often be accepted on faith, alone.  It is not easy to be “different.”  You may feel oppressed or fall into depressions that confound those who care for you.  Learn to recognize “teachers” who will help you develop your special qualities.  Then, find a proper channel to present your talents, even to those who cling to orthodox beliefs.  Offer your uncommon gifts in the name of humanity on the altar of mankind.

 

 

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 Scorpio

 

(The Excessive)

 

Many are attracted to your powerful magnetism, but may be frightened by the intensity with which you approach life in general and your desires in particular.  You are in touch with your emotions, and may be governed by them so need discipline to succeed.  You live on a grandiose scale.  Everything is magnified by ten-plus and receives the full force of your energy until you are satisfied with your achievements.  You are an unrelenting foe and the most magnanimous of friends.

 

 

Jupiter in Cancer

 

(The Weight-watcher)

 

You may attract and absorb too much of a good thing, if you are a gourmet cook, or take the world’s burdens on your sympathetic shoulders.  Your acumen in business is unquestioned, but without someone to share your triumphs, you become disconsolate.  What you do for others is done from love; a day without friends is indeed a day without sunshine.

 

 

Saturn in Pisces

 

(The Stabilizer)

 

Although it is in your disposition to look to others for support, you can search for your independence and find it.  You may turn moodiness into meditation and benefit from time spent with yourself by listening to “small voices” within that you have not had the courage to hear.  You may cling to destructive emotional patterns, but can develop a will to win.  This has little to do with rewards, other than to at last glimpse who you are and delight in the knowledge.

 

 

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 Taurus

 

(The Conscientious)

 

You are aware of the values of society and surround yourself with obvious signs of wealth and propriety.  Still, you fret that you fail to impress others with your exemplary image.  Such pretense is unnecessary.  You are not judged by what you have, but who you are.  Like the prodigal son, yours are the riches of the universe and are free for the asking.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Venus opposite Pluto  (Strength:  5.62)

 

(The Tempestuous)

 

Your passionate energies need evaluation.  Learn to measure yourself and your standards honestly.  Hidden conflicts may be hard to pinpoint because they are an inherent part of you.  Intense jealousy can motivate violent tantrums or actions that must be dealt with in a logical manner as forces within you that need release.  Learn early to take responsibility for your own emotions.  Desirable unions can end tragically if you resist self-control.

 

 

Moon opposite Mars  (Strength:  5.40)

 

(The Untenable)

 

You ride an emotional see-saw which is difficult to control, particularly in personal relationships.  You may have trouble relating to women as a result of childhood programming by a mother-figure.  Your emotions can provoke involuntary tantrums that may prove embarrassing.  Try to develop a tolerance for others since you are not essentially a “loner.” You need people in your life who may help you to mature as a calmer individual, capable of leadership instead of tyranny.

 

 

Sun square Neptune  (Strength:  5.22)

 

(The Disoriented)

 

You may feel “lost.”  Misdirection in your life can result in repeated defeats and feelings of inadequacy.   Energy drops may be frequent so that you “never really feel good.”  You are at the center of your problems, so you, alone, hold the solutions.  It is not easy to reprogram for success, but begin by building resources in both body and mind.  Your idealism will encourage you to continue to believe that “life is what you make it” and can be beautiful, indeed.

 

 

Jupiter trine Saturn  (Strength:  4.15)

 

(The Shrewd)

 

Little escapes your notice, and you believe in giving the same attention to details as to the larger picture.  You realize your potential and are realistic in your ability to achieve your goals.  You can make-do with little or manipulate your investments and holdings to advantage.  You seldom shirk responsibility and try to do what is expected of you, even if it means going an “extra mile.”  With your willingness to learn as you earn, you have every chance for success.

 

 

Jupiter trine Neptune  (Strength:  4.10)

 

(The Ideologist)

 

You have wonderful ideas to benefit humanity, with plans to match, but must act upon them or your good intentions will fall by the wayside.  You may get no further than to attract those who will help you improve yourself or interest you in metaphysics to further your insight into spiritual or esoteric mysteries.  If you inject pragmatism and the drive to succeed into your fondest dreams, you can enlist the support of others and have every chance of making them come true.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  3.89)

 

(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.

 

 

Uranus sextile Neptune  (Strength:  3.13)

 

(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.

 

 

Uranus conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.48)

 

(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.

 

 

Sun trine Mars  (Strength:  2.40)

 

(The Self-possessed)

 

You are confident, but not often “cocky.”  You attract the opposite sex and others who admire your independence, though you adjust readily to partnerships which increase your scope.  You review your progress regularly and update your potential, so are prepared for achievement without egoistic pitfalls to delay your success.  You may excel in physical sports, but true to your pattern are well-rehearsed, and play for the challenge of a game — not for the win, alone.

 

 

Saturn trine Neptune  (Strength:  2.25)

 

(The Opening)

 

You apply yourself with persistence, determination and a conviction that, with hard work, you will succeed.  You are realistic in your expectations and willing to overcome pessimism and self-doubt.  At your lowest ebb, “something” will encourage you to press on.  You believe you are joined by a higher force in selecting and achieving your goals and when the time is right, you will be fulfilled.  It may be later than sooner, but have patience.  Such faith must be rewarded.

 

 

Venus opposite Uranus  (Strength:  2.10)

 

(The Disparate)

 

You must beware of “get rich quick” schemes and cautious in your selection of partners.  Only time will distinguish between a harmonious relationship and a passing fancy.  Curb your impulsiveness if you are attracted to those too different in background and values.  Question whether you can adjust to inherent challenges.  If you cannot settle for a conventional union, you may avoid commitment by indulging in improper mergers or with those unavailable as permanent companions.

 

 

Mars square Jupiter  (Strength:  1.51)

 

(The Aggressive)

 

Your self-confidence and desire for expansion can tempt you to over-extend yourself or appear too assertive.  If you push instead of using persuasive powers or seem threatening to others, you may defeat your purpose.  Good generals employ well thought-out strategy with force and link diplomacy with surrender.  It is not in your nature to accept “second best.” You should carefully consider the feelings and acceptance of others when presenting your strategic campaigns.

 

Saturn opposite Uranus  (Strength:  1.38)

 

(The Self-reliant)

 

You have the ability to do a good job of balancing innovation with practicality on your own.  But, you need as much structure as room to grow and must depend on others to provide sturdy foundations.  Feelings of restriction, resentment and restlessness can emerge as you begin to expand. Realize that you have time to earn your freedom.  Redefine and improve rather than destroy valuable experiences which can prepare you for the independence you crave.

 

Sun inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  1.35)

 

(The Straw-grasper)

 

Unexpected challenges may seem to impede your progress, but the truth is you may be too erratic in your plans or ideas to be taken seriously by your fellows.  You can act on impulse or ignore the consequences of your behavior.  You may feel that “no one understands you” and attract partners who are as unstable as you.  Though you dislike restriction, early discipline may help to align your inventive qualities into patterns that can prove to be practical as you mature.

 

Jupiter sextile Uranus  (Strength:  1.24)

 

(The Timely)

 

You are usually on the scene when opportunities are presented and prepared to take advantage.  It is almost as though you expect the unexpected, rather than receiving the “lucky breaks” that others envy.  You complement being “on your toes” with willingness to learn something new and “different” when the occasion arises.  Your intuition may cue you to act on possibilities which allow you to grow and expand at your own pace with the confidence to succeed.

 

Venus trine Neptune  (Strength:  1.23)

 

(The Union)

 

Your gentle spirit and creative mind blend to create idealistic inspiration.  You can be self-deluding, and credit yourself with qualities of an ideal mate.  As you can forgive shortcomings, you will be upset if others fault your image of perfection or deny you the same generous compassion you extend.  Project realism and allow time to discover reality in relationships before commitment.  You contribute much as a partner and deserve better than to live in an illusion.

 

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  0.92)

 

(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.

 

Mercury conjunct Venus  (Strength:  0.59)

 

(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.

 

Mars inconjunct Saturn  (Strength:  0.37)

 

(The Controlled)

 

You may feel the world is against you because of restrictions you may have earned!  An illusion that you must become an adult overnight may mean that you are in a hurry to grow up.  If you turn frustrations inward, you may invite fevers or other physical drains.  If you do not receive recognition for your hard work, you might adapt the philosopher’s view that “The highest reward for honest toil is not what you get for it, but what you become by it!”

 

Mercury opposite Pluto  (Strength:  0.21)

 

(The Zealot)

 

You are likely to invite conflicts because of your determination to prove yourself right.  It is probably true that you are an in-depth person who gives your “all” to whatever project is in view, but that does not preclude another’s right to a converse opinion.  Subversion will not add to your validity, and may be a factor in a “no-win” situation.  Tempering knowledge with tolerance is preferable to attracting enemies who share your obsessive nature.

 

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 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 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.

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

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 Aquarius

 

(Keynote:  I KNOW)

 

You are optimistic, innovative, philosophical and humane, but are capable of being eccentric, indifferent, rebellious and temperamental.  You are motivated by inherent feelings that amount to enlightenment.   Your interest in humanity puts you in contact with a variety of people to whom you can relate with equality.  Your dispassionate nature confuses those who would form attachments.  Like an astronaut, you expect your partners to respect the independence you treasure and permit the freedom your creativity demands.  Ideally, you will one day contribute your special gifts to the evolution of man.

 

 

 

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.

 

 

Mercury in Aquarius

 

(The Capricious)

 

You may have the inventive qualities of an Edison or an Einstein, but instead of being an “egghead” may end with “egg on your face.”  You look towards tomorrow, but seldom at yesterday, where you might profit from experience.  You are often seen as “unfeeling” because you neglect loved ones in taking the freedom to be a friend to others.  Include those closest to you in your aspirations.  They admire your unusual gifts and offer the support you need for success.

 

 

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 Scorpio

 

(The Excessive)

 

Many are attracted to your powerful magnetism, but may be frightened by the intensity with which you approach life in general and your desires in particular.  You are in touch with your emotions, and may be governed by them so need discipline to succeed.  You live on a grandiose scale.  Everything is magnified by ten-plus and receives the full force of your energy until you are satisfied with your achievements.  You are an unrelenting foe and the most magnanimous of friends.

 

 

Jupiter in Libra

 

(The Goddess)

 

Use your fairy gifts of beauty, charm, and grace wisely.  Your artistic talents may bring you a prominent place in the public eye.  Partners are all-important.  You extend yourself to assure that you are worthy of them.  You may fulfill your dearest wish that the world will be a happier place and its citizens find contentment because you have walked among them.

 

 

Saturn in Aries

 

(The Repressed)

 

You may fight against restrictions imposed upon you, but if you insist on doing things “your” way, you will find stumbling blocks in your path and doors that should open will close.  Patience and forbearance will enforce the discipline to climb to the heights you struggle to gain.  In later years, you will receive the rewards you desire now.  Your solid foundations will last long after you have passed the frustration it took to achieve your purpose.

 

 

Uranus in Libra

 

(The Bohemian)

 

You have artistic talent and appreciate modern, as well as traditional forms.  You are intelligent, ambitious and determined, but may change your goals too often. Your creative imagination and intuitive gifts blend well.  Relationships are trying, as you choose unlikely companions.  You make enemies because of unusual ideas, independence and your caustic wit. Once your efforts are channeled, you may attract opportunities that will lead to the success you have dreamed of.

 

 

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 Aries

 

(The Uncertain)

 

You project confidence, but are plagued with doubt that you can produce all that you promise.  You dislike calling others for assistance because it means exposing your soft underbelly.  When you learn you have many supporters waiting to follow your lead, you may discover that “your own person” is the “you” you wanted to be all along.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Sun square Mars  (Strength:  6.33)

 

(The Outraged)

 

It is difficult for you to see a need for concession.  You have no patience with another’s input when you are confident you are right.  You may work harder than others and your ego demands you receive full credit.  If denied or opposed, your fiery reactions may eclipse the rewards you have earned.  By learning that compromise is the blending of positive energies, you employ the wisdom of a respected master instead of the mandates of a tyrant welcomed by none.

 

 

Jupiter conjunct Uranus  (Strength:  4.20)

 

(The Unexpected)

 

You may be caught off-balance, but have sufficient confidence to regain your footing and make the most of what lies ahead.  You are optimistic and feel that “everything is for the best” so are undaunted by a few bumps and jolts along the way to unusual opportunities that dot your path.  If your landscape were smooth and without hills to climb, you would think it dull and long for the excitement you seem to invite or create as a part of your adventurous lifestyle.

 

 

Sun sextile Saturn  (Strength:  3.17)

 

(The Laborer)

 

Once others learn of your dependability, you will be in demand as a serious worker.  It may take you longer to gather the knowledge you need or to complete a job, but you seldom make mistakes and are meticulous in completing your tasks, no matter how tedious the assignment.  The same is true of your personal development, but narrowness is a flaw in your otherwise commendable qualities.  Develop tolerance for those who may not have your patience to persevere.

 

 

Mars sextile Pluto  (Strength:  3.04)

 

(The Resolved)

 

Your determination to succeed can take you to the top of the heap.  You tackle challenges, assured of necessary strength in surmounting obstacles.  Avoid a messianic complex that you are “the” person to bring about the salvation of others, regardless of their opinions or feelings.  You have the ability to dissect your own problems and settle them with practical solutions.  In the process, you may discover the transforming power of regeneration within you.

 

 

Moon trine Saturn  (Strength:  2.92)

 

(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.”

 

 

Mercury trine Uranus  (Strength:  2.89)

 

(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.

 

 

Venus opposite Jupiter  (Strength:  2.43)

 

(The Indulgent)

 

No one really wants to disturb your “head in the sand” attitude of dealing with reality because you are so likable and easygoing.  Your worst habits of overspending, overeating or imbibing in things that are generally not good for you will eventually take their toll.  That you encourage others to follow suit is inevitable.  Exercise enough self-criticism and discipline to assure that you and they are not self-decimating or found wanting when the rent is due.

 

 

Sun inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  2.37)

 

(The Over-zealous)

 

Your determination to have things your way can work against you, especially if you refuse to adapt to change.  You may find yourself in power plays because of an attitude that “Yours is the only way!”  Unrelenting pressures may be self-imposed, but if you are a bully, you will attract those who enjoy fighting.  Instead of hurling yourself at the top, learn patience.  Seek, Find and GROW.  You can leave this life stronger, wiser, and more successful than when you entered it.

 

 

Mercury sextile Neptune  (Strength:  2.27)

 

(The Insightful)

 

Inner perception works to your advantage when negotiating with those who are usually difficult to fathom.  You “feel” more than “comprehend,” so can often satisfy the needs of others that are overlooked by those who deal strictly with reality.  If you successfully balance your understanding of spiritual and material values, you can share your knowledge with others and encourage them to develop their potential on a higher level than many would consider practical.

 

 

Sun square Neptune  (Strength:  1.30)

 

(The Disoriented)

 

You may feel “lost.”  Misdirection in your life can result in repeated defeats and feelings of inadequacy.   Energy drops may be frequent so that you “never really feel good.”  You are at the center of your problems, so you, alone, hold the solutions.  It is not easy to reprogram for success, but begin by building resources in both body and mind.  Your idealism will encourage you to continue to believe that “life is what you make it” and can be beautiful, indeed.

 

 

Mercury trine Jupiter  (Strength:  1.09)

 

(The Assertive)

 

You have big plans which you like to discuss with others.  You exchange ideas and receive the support of your friends. Once clear in your goals, you’ll have no trouble convincing others that you know what you’re talking about and should be given a chance to prove yourself.  You are an excellent salesperson or counselor. In either case, you have the attention of others who respect your opinion and enjoy from you a positive output which contributes to your success.

 

 

Mars conjunct Neptune  (Strength:  0.97)

 

(The Converse)

 

You are dealing with energies diametrically opposed, but can achieve balance if you notice or anticipate sudden bursts of or drops in endurance.  By using your intuition, you may be aware of those who try to involve you in nefarious activities or take advantage by appealing to your ego.  Gather your resources when you are discouraged or lack the drive to launch your dreams.  Objectivity instead of subjectivity may furnish answers otherwise unacceptable to your sensitive nature.

 

Venus opposite Uranus  (Strength:  0.62)

 

(The Disparate)

 

You must beware of “get rich quick” schemes and cautious in your selection of partners.  Only time will distinguish between a harmonious relationship and a passing fancy.  Curb your impulsiveness if you are attracted to those too different in background and values.  Question whether you can adjust to inherent challenges.  If you cannot settle for a conventional union, you may avoid commitment by indulging in improper mergers or with those unavailable as permanent companions.

 

Mars inconjunct Saturn  (Strength:  0.50)

 

(The Controlled)

 

You may feel the world is against you because of restrictions you may have earned!  An illusion that you must become an adult overnight may mean that you are in a hurry to grow up.  If you turn frustrations inward, you may invite fevers or other physical drains.  If you do not receive recognition for your hard work, you might adapt the philosopher’s view that “The highest reward for honest toil is not what you get for it, but what you become by it!”

 

Mercury trine Pluto  (Strength:  0.20)

 

(The Novice)

 

You view yourself as a perpetual student of life, an apprentice who has much to learn, so will attract those who can increase your knowledge. Your interest may include studies of self-enlightenment, such as psychology, psychotherapy or metaphysical sciences.  You will concentrate on that to which you feel drawn or “called,” and at which you prove most adept.  Eventually, you may share your knowledge, but only when you f

eel worthy of the universal degree of “Master.”

 

Balance of Elements and Modalities

 

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.

 

 

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 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.

Planets in Signs and Houses

 

 

Aquarius Ascendant

 

(The Oracle)

 

Your distinctive features are your eyes, sometimes the color of the sea, the sky, or both — one is never sure which.  You are a one-of-a-kind person in touch with “something” that gives you special insights into “tomorrow.”  You don’t ask to be understood, but need freedom to explore the horizon. Problems occur in avoiding commitment.  You cannot get along without people, since you would have no way to express the compassion you feel for all of earth’s creatures.

 

 

 

Sun in Aquarius

 

(Keynote:  I KNOW)

 

You are optimistic, innovative, philosophical and humane, but are capable of being eccentric, indifferent, rebellious and temperamental.  You are motivated by inherent feelings that amount to enlightenment.   Your interest in humanity puts you in contact with a variety of people to whom you can relate with equality.  Your dispassionate nature confuses those who would form attachments.  Like an astronaut, you expect your partners to respect the independence you treasure and permit the freedom your creativity demands.  Ideally, you will one day contribute your special gifts to the evolution of man.

 

 

Sun in the First House

 

(The Driving Force)

 

In all things you must be first.  Patience is not your long suit, but try to make allowances for those who lack your talent for making quick judgments.  Partnerships can be difficult because of your hair-trigger temper.  It is through your partners that you find the harmony and stability you so desperately need for balance.  You have what it takes to succeed: Good health, charm, confidence and courage — the qualities of a leader.  But, they are also the traits of a tyrant.  The choice is always yours as to how you use the tremendous powers at your disposal.

 

 

 

Moon in Aquarius

 

(The Individual)

 

You are not always practical, but are unorthodox and misunderstood by those who do not appreciate that you are a true liberal of rare talent.  You cannot be restricted by the bonds of convention or a regulated society.  Whatever you do is done with all your heart, but once you have accomplished your purpose, you move on, which may give you a reputation of indifference.  Your independence can result in loneliness, though you surround yourself with people and join causes in which you strongly believe.  You search for enlightenment to bring you to the state of peace and tranquility you long for.

 

 

Moon in the Twelfth House

 

(The Isolationist)

 

You may be plagued by psychological problems originating with a mother-figure. You are hard on yourself and assume an oppressive responsibility for self-analysis because it is difficult for others to draw you out.  Your friends will not understand your moods nor the fact that you need to call upon restorative powers provided only by seclusion.  Depend on spiritual trust and your strong intuition to reveal what is demanded of you and how best to make payment.

 

 

Mercury in Capricorn

 

(The Logician)

 

You are a strategist who employs systematic methods and are seldom upset, unless your plans are disturbed.  You communicate with others by getting right to the point with a minimum of wasted effort.  Others may consider you sober, self-righteous and too rigid to enjoy life, but what they think of as “rigid”, you believe to be structured, “sober” as merely serious, and “self-righteousness” is your pride in accomplishments that you have earned the hard way.

 

 

Mercury in the Twelfth House

 

(The Investigator)

 

You excel in research, and do your best work in seclusion.  You may depend on intuition for clues when your gift for practical analysis fails to unearth the answers you need.  Keep your head on your shoulders, or your vivid imagination may color your sense of reality.  Self-analysis can cause you to brood over too-serious thoughts.  It might be better to consult someone else who is more objective, but chances are, you seldom feel like talking it over.

 

 

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.

 

 

Venus in the Second House

 

(The Status-Seeker)

 

An innate dislike of ugliness makes the acquisition of beautiful things almost a necessity.  But, an obsession for accumulating expensive serendipity for the sake of creating an illusion of opulence can encourage acquiring money for money’s sake.  If there is an opportunity, you may marry for money at the expense of love.  True values need constant attention to rise above the temptation to worship at a golden idol’s feet.

 

 

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 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 Leo

 

(The Majestic)

 

You live life in a grandiose manner.  Still, you aspire to improve your standing.  You are a loyal friend, an ardent lover and others admire, rather than envy, you.  What some consider luck, you take as your due, because you are aware of your opportunities and make the most of them.  You are to all a “king” who demonstrates generosity, kindness and good will.

 

 

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 Sagittarius

 

(The Persuader)

 

You have the ability to influence others to join a crusade; as long as you adhere to your high principles, they will admire and probably follow you without question. However, you must be prepared to encounter those who disagree with your beliefs and oppose you.  Carefully guard your words and actions because they can be held against you.  The flames you ignite may become a holocaust out of your control.

 

 

Saturn in the Tenth House

 

(The Deliberator)

 

You know what you want.  You make your plans carefully, and you are willing to study, work hard and do whatever it takes to achieve your goals.  On your way to the top, be careful not to ignore or alienate those close to you. Once you reach your zenith, try to find ways to reward your supporters.  Otherwise, you are liable to find yourself successful but solitary, with a void in your life that can only be filled by those who care for you.

 

 

Uranus in Cancer

 

(The Whimsical)

 

You are an uncommon, often-disruptive influence in the home.  Overly-sensitive, you can brood over imagined wrongs, but may never voice your unhappiness or resentments.  Others may not comprehend your dour moods.  You can benefit by quiet times of self-analysis.  Try to include your loved ones in discussions that will strengthen your bonds and prevent the dissension associated with your eccentricities.  Much may be accomplished by mutual understanding.

 

 

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 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 Ninth House

 

(The Priest)

 

You are highly conscious of the spiritual side of life and may feel you are “called” to take your place as a theologian.  You need not become a minister in the orthodox sense, but can adopt and employ valuable philosophies.  Don’t be impatient to achieve your goals.  Allow opportunities to emerge as you grow in faith.  Recognize that the price of higher knowledge is often one of self-sacrifice that does not admit the ego as a constructive energy.

 

 

Pluto in Leo

 

(The Agitated)

 

Your ability to keep things at a fever pitch needs careful regulating to avoid constant upheaval in your life and the lives of others.  Your senses are keen.  Use them to recognize a need for transforming human affairs.  Take your place in bettering your environment by helping others to better theirs.  It is preferable to accept the accolades of your peers for your good work than to indulge the self-aggrandizement negatively associated with your sign.

 

 

Pluto in the Seventh House

 

(The Autocrat)

 

You can expect to receive in kind whatever you devise, but may bite off more than you can chew.  In all partnerships you assume you will set the rules, but may find others have their own ideas and expect you to consider them.  If there are conflicts, you may face actions that are far from above-board, but if you are fair in your demands, you need not provoke destructive consequences.  You can use the powerful energies you project to strengthen your ties.

 

 

Scorpio Midheaven

 

You will do well in a career which involves your ability to feel out and involve others in a collaborative venture.  You are emotionally intuitive, both about potential partners and about the direction of society as a whole, so that you can speak what people are feeling.  You yourself may have gone through deep transformations connected to traumatic events.  You are comfortable reaching down into the depths of any subject and so make a good researcher or investigator.  You are happiest in an occupation which allows you to explore and produce constructive results.  Your strength may involve you in a power struggle with authorities until you can achieve a compromise.  Your commitment is such that you make a dangerous enemy.  Some people with this placement are so inflexible that they stay with a job that they hate.

 

Power and control will be issues in your life.  You have the ability to coordinate the efforts of others in teamwork, handling power tactfully and with concern for the rights of others.  Work with others for transformation and improvement, as opposed to maintenance of the status quo, and you will enjoy great success.  Selfishness, ruthlessness, and overkill are the negative possibilities of this placement.  Try to spread both the effort and the benefits to others.

 

Occupations consistent with your intense style of work include investigator, researcher, critic, engineer, programmer, mechanic, contractor, wrecker, exterminator, dramatic writer or poet,  sex therapist, tailor, musician, entrepreneur, government or large company worker, surgeon, chemist, pharmacist, detective, psychologist, mortician, insurance actuary, artist, or the military.  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 Pluto, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

 

 

North Node in Sagittarius

 

(The Fence Sitter)

 

You are afraid to make choices that may put you in the wrong.  Until you voice an opinion or convictions that are yours alone, you will not have earned the independence you desire.  Experience teaches that conflict often results from indifference.  Restore others’ confidence by repairing breaks in links of faith with the solder of concern and wisdom.

 

 

North Node in the Eleventh House

 

(The Inappropriate)

 

You are in love with love and may wear your heart on your sleeve.  See yourself through the eyes of others where you are reflected.  Perceive that you must grow beyond “self” to gain the happiness you seek.  By forsaking your ego, you can find the satisfaction of joining others in a cause which you may develop, and fulfill your pursuit of immortality.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Moon conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  9.20)

 

(The Subterfuge)

 

You may disguise your emotionally-sensitive nature in the extreme, either as bravado or in a submissive attitude.  The truth is that it is difficult for you to let others in on your feelings or talk about your problems with those who might understand.  An emphasis on possessions can weaken your intuitive powers or the ethereal nature which makes you mediumistic.  By observing the needs of others, you may be able to communicate openly and relieve your burdened spirit.

 

 

Moon square Neptune  (Strength:  8.46)

 

(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.

 

 

Moon opposite Uranus  (Strength:  8.15)

 

(The Late Bloomer)

 

You may be reluctant to release old patterns from early childhood, or feel guilty as you grow away from familiar habits ingrained by a mother-figure.  However, your inquisitive nature presses you to explore new methods that will help you expand.  Once you decide on liberation, develop patience to learn the result of your actions before insisting others follow your example, whether or not they share your enthusiasm for drastic change.

 

 

Moon sextile Saturn  (Strength:  7.13)

 

(The Judicious)

 

You are careful with your feelings and emotions and therefore have great control over your interaction with others.  You may seem older and wiser than your years because of your preference for conservatism and your respect for tradition.  You prefer the company of older people, and if you need advice will look to someone well-versed and substantial for counsel.  However, you are secure within yourself and justly proud of your independence and self-sufficiency.

 

 

Uranus square Neptune  (Strength:  6.93)

 

(The Elusive)

 

You tend to sidestep issues you don’t want to deal with and may try to escape into unrealistic abstractions, though you see them as truth.  The world can be a confusing place in which to live, but you must address life as realistically as possible.  Yours is a challenge to find ways in which to use your unusual talents productively.  Your viewpoint is all-important, as you must discover how to adjust to circumstances that require practicality, as well as imagination.

 

 

Venus trine Uranus  (Strength:  6.88)

 

(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.

 

 

Mercury opposite Uranus  (Strength:  6.52)

 

(The Undisciplined)

 

You are apt to be restless and easily bored unless you have somewhere to go or something to do that is “different” every waking moment.  You look for new experiences or people with whom you can exchange original ideas.  You are too impatient for conventional studies, but may become intrigued by the challenge of mathematics, astrology or mysteries that command your attention and will inspire you to use the control you need to carve a niche in a structured world.

 

 

Jupiter conjunct Pluto  (Strength:  5.78)

 

(The Ambitious)

 

Once you set a goal, you put all your energy into achieving it.  You have an instinct for timing that is sometimes precognitive, and gives you the momentum to hit your zenith at the right instant.  Your aims are extremely personal, geared toward your improvement.  You are not anxious to share rewards, since success is an obsession into which you pour your resources.  As long as you do not distort your values, your drive for power will undoubtedly pay off.

 

 

Moon conjunct Mercury  (Strength:  5.00)

 

(The Vacillator)

 

It is difficult for you to make a lasting decision.  You may change your mind suddenly and often after having “second thoughts.”  You are apt to act emotionally and are influenced by mood swings rather than logic.  At times, you are overwhelmed by inconsequential ideas that have no bearing on problems of the moment.  But, you are able to express your feelings readily and can ask for good advice to help you follow through successfully on matters of importance.

 

 

Saturn trine Uranus  (Strength:  4.53)

 

(The Technician)

 

You prepare for the future by attending to the present, but are not easily upset by unexpected changes, since you realize that “nothing is forever.”  If you feel that some modification or adjustment is in order, you will try to accommodate it within your structure.  But, a need for new skills is met with the idea that you will have extra tools to advance your position.  You are open to utilizing new ideas without sacrificing what you have worked hard to establish.

 

 

Mercury square Neptune  (Strength:  4.20)

 

(The Perplexed)

 

You dream of fairy-tale romances, but be careful not to put on pedestals those who don’t deserve your consideration. You will come to see they have feet of clay, and become disillusioned.  If you live in a dream world, you can be deceived.  Or, you may use others to achieve your means in an underhanded manner.  Maintain your integrity and insist on fact over fantasy.  Avoid confusion that could deny success.  Don’t forego your chance at a productively rewarding life.

 

 

Mercury sextile Venus  (Strength:  4.00)

 

(The Cartoonist)

 

Relaxation is important to you and you learn early to pace yourself to allow time for pleasure.  You tend to take things at face value, are easy-going and amusing to have around.  You appreciate art forms, but if you draw, are more likely to “doodle” or present the lighter side of mankind in caricature, which expresses your tongue-in-cheek attitude. You are a winsome companion, if lacking the solemnity to provide variable shadows on your sunny side of the street!

 

Mercury inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  3.89)

 

(The Overbearing)

 

You are too intense and opinionated to work well with others.  Your drive to prove yourself can make you assume a “superior” attitude and cause resentment.  If you are not willing to change your demeanor, you may attract the unfavorable attention of those who wield power.  Once in charge, you are unrelenting in your demands.  Nervous disorders or inflammatory problems may result from unreleased tensions or a determination to succeed “if it kills you!”

 

Mercury inconjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  3.58)

 

(The Blind-spot)

 

You may be so intent on impressing others with your grandiose ideas that you fail to see your own shortcomings.  If you preach philosophical concepts, be sure that you adhere to the rules you set for others.  Or, you may be easily flattered and led to attempt more than you can handle.  It is unlikely that you will over-do periods of self-examination, or deal harshly with your faults.  Take an inward look before embarking on the outward leap that may lead to your downfall.

 

Moon sextile Venus  (Strength:  3.28)

 

(The Nurturer)

 

Love for your fellow man makes it difficult for you to dislike anyone you meet.  You give others the benefit of the doubt and are disappointed only in your lack of judgment if they do not measure up to your expectations.  You may prefer to entertain at home and your friends welcome your invitations to visit.  Self-indulgence can include the satisfaction you derive from caring for others.  But, you must be careful not to resent those who do not return your generosity in kind.

 

Mercury conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  3.21)

 

(The Accelerator)

 

You are quick to recognize and seize an opportunity for personal progress.  You may create openings for your advancement, since no one can sell yourself better than you.  You know what you want and can find a way to achieve it.  Try not to react or take the criticism of others to heart, unless they are in authority, as they may stand in your way or delay your success.  You know yourself well.  Elevate your sights beyond what is available and set yourself higher goals.

 

Venus trine Saturn  (Strength:  2.66)

 

(The Stable)

 

You view relationships realistically so the bonds you form are sensible and of lasting quality.  In business, you are able to stretch resources or make do with limited means.  You realize the value of commitment in personal unions as an opportunity to build something substantial with a helpmate, but are not necessarily unromantic in your approach.  If you remain single, you will provide for emotional support to keep your life in balance, which is one secret of your success.

 

Sun sextile Mars  (Strength:  2.35)

 

(The Expeditor)

 

Use your energies to accomplish your tasks in the most judicious manner.  You are not likely to go unnoticed.  Your object will be the successful completion of anything you undertake rather than satisfaction of your ego, so you work well with others and make use of their input.  Your self-confidence inspires respect of your judgment.  Should you find resistance, you will overcome it with logic and prudence rather than aggressiveness and domination.

 

Mars conjunct North Node  (Strength:  2.17)

 

(The Champion)

 

Others willingly follow your lead and believe in you because you radiate confidence.  You are free with your advice and firm in your decisions.  You enjoy helping the “underdog,” and revel in recognition for your achievements.  You can be intolerant and take criticism badly, if at all.  Your aggressive outlook can draw the respect you enjoy or label you as a bully.  The choices you make determine your success. Once the die is cast, there is no turning back.

 

Venus inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  1.88)

 

(The Luxury Lover)

 

You tend to go overboard in your wishes and demands.  Your love can be possessive and jealous.  If partners do not conform to your ideals, you may insist on trying to make them over.  Your determination to cling to “what is yours” can become obsessive.  Money is all-important for your desired lifestyle, and you pursue it relentlessly.  You can drive that which you most desire away unless you truly begin to practice moderation and the old axiom of “Live and let live.”

 

Venus inconjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  1.66)

 

(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.

 

Saturn square Pluto  (Strength:  1.54)

 

(True Grit)

 

You may feel the world is against you or that life is a continuous struggle, with you the innocent victim.  Even if you must combat overwhelming odds, you will find ways to express yourself and your ideas as an effective individual.  The more difficult the obstacle and the less you have to work with, the stronger you will become.  When you establish your values, you will defend them wholeheartedly and few can come against you without knowing they have been in a fight.

 

Venus inconjunct Neptune  (Strength:  1.41)

 

(The Misconception)

 

You breathe romance into every facet of your life, refusing to accept mundane expectations or a practical life-style.  You may compensate for lack of fulfillment by indulging a prominent sweet-tooth, or hallucinatory substances which are harmful to your health.  If you pay the freight to maintain an idealistic alliance, you can invite deceptive partners.  Ask yourself if you can afford the disappointment and the debts which plague your troubled relationships.

 

Jupiter square Saturn  (Strength:  1.32)

 

(The Wary)

 

You are much like the old song that complains: “You have a feeling that you wanna go — then, you wanna stay — but you gotta go!”  You have an urge to expand or break away from restrictions, but may be overly careful — as if you never feel you have what it takes to succeed, so are a perpetual student instead of a graduate in the school of life.  You may set modest goals, unworthy of your higher potential.  Faith in yourself will prepare you for the success you can achieve.

 

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  1.24)

 

(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.”

 

Jupiter sextile Neptune  (Strength:  1.01)

 

(The Philanthropist)

 

Traditional views of religion are not necessarily satisfying to your need for spirituality.  You may prefer to “live” your faith rather than give it “lip service.”  Your concern for others prompts you to extend a helping hand in a sincere desire to serve, but does not mean you can accomplish miracles.  But, if you achieve a balance between the demands of the material world and continue to do uplifting work, you will one day know the meaning of fulfillment.

 

Sun opposite Jupiter  (Strength:  0.11)

 

(The Listener)

 

You are so idealistic, hopeful and enthusiastic that it seems unlikely that anyone or anything can deflate your quixotic balloon.  Because to you “possession is nine-tenths of success,” you surround yourself with material proof of your achievements.  Your tendency to overdo needs a tight rein to keep your goals and rewards in alignment.  It is important that since you are such a “Pollyanna” you hear the opinions and advice of others who offer a practical outlook.

 

Balance of Elements and Modalities

 

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.

 

 

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 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.

 

 

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.

 

 

Balanced House Elements

 

The planets are evenly distributed between houses of different types in your chart.  This will help to balance out any lack of a particular element that might occur if your chart’s planets tend to concentrate in certain zodiac signs.  It helps you to balance thinking with feeling, assertion with diplomacy, and imagination with realism.

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

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 Aquarius

 

(Keynote:  I KNOW)

 

You are optimistic, innovative, philosophical and humane, but are capable of being eccentric, indifferent, rebellious and temperamental.  You are motivated by inherent feelings that amount to enlightenment.   Your interest in humanity puts you in contact with a variety of people to whom you can relate with equality.  Your dispassionate nature confuses those who would form attachments.  Like an astronaut, you expect your partners to respect the independence you treasure and permit the freedom your creativity demands.  Ideally, you will one day contribute your special gifts to the evolution of man.

 

 

Sun in the Seventh House

 

(The Partner)

 

Partnerships will always take precedence in your life because of the power you give them.  You feel the need of another person to keep you in balance.  It is vital that you learn how to compromise your views to agree with those of other people.  Though you may be the primary agent in a relationship, at some time you may have to take a subordinate position.  If you are not prepared to do this, your pairing will suffer and may turn into an open conflict.  Partnership requires team effort.  Do your best to find solutions to problems that will benefit you both.

 

 

 

Moon in Libra

 

(The Dependent)

 

You have a burning desire to please and will go to great lengths to do so.  You cultivate an image of glamour and success, are probably a compulsive buyer and enjoy wearing distinctive and expensive clothes.  You attract easily, and are popular, but fickle.  You may be over-critical of your partners until you realize that, because you are easily-led, you need someone to help you make decisions.  You are either too lazy or insecure to try to develop much self-reliance.  A strong instinct that a special relationship is “fated” may lead you to the proper person to be your life-mate.

 

 

Moon in the Third House

 

(The Telepathist)

 

Use your intuitive powers to express yourself, but first, be stable enough to employ them.  Eastern philosophies of meditation are particularly helpful since you will become increasingly aware of a need to go within for the truths you seek.  In groups, you may regard friends as brothers and sisters, and value mutual understanding, rather than conversation, as a bond, but do not depend on feelings, alone, to communicate with others.

 

 

Mercury in Pisces

 

(The Unique)

 

Your uncanny intuition and psychic feelings must often be accepted on faith, alone.  It is not easy to be “different.”  You may feel oppressed or fall into depressions that confound those who care for you.  Learn to recognize “teachers” who will help you develop your special qualities.  Then, find a proper channel to present your talents, even to those who cling to orthodox beliefs.  Offer your uncommon gifts in the name of humanity on the altar of mankind.

 

 

Mercury in the Eighth House

 

(The Mentalist)

 

You will discover early-on that (in your case) “mind over matter” is more than a saying.  You have great influence over others, and will find that you, in turn, are greatly impressed by the variety of people who will cross your path.  Your interests, provoked by a desire for self-discovery, may range from the occult to psychiatry.  Use what you find to improve yourself as a useful human being, willing to share your store of knowledge with your fellow man.

 

 

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.

 

 

Venus in the Ninth House

 

(The Idealist)

 

Your love of learning and sharing knowledge is almost certain to draw you to foreign lands.  You may even choose a career as a diplomat and live abroad.  Every man is your brother.  Every life you touch stimulates your desire to reach a higher level of spiritual being.  You benefit mankind by using your experience to educate the masses.  You are not a REVOLUTIONIST, but an EVOLUTIONIST, gathering means to feed a starving universe with fruits of your knowledge.

 

 

Mars in Gemini

 

(The Lecturer)

 

You are a powerful speaker, able to influence others and sway them to your views.  As a teacher, you convince students to do things “your way,” though you may change your methods as often as you change your mind.  If you scatter your energies, you can fail to complete what you have started and accomplish nothing.  Learn early to think before you speak and hone your ability to concentrate.  Otherwise, your knowledge may appear superficial and your ideas not worth exploring.

 

 

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 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.

 

 

Jupiter in the Sixth House

 

(The Co-worker)

 

People willingly work with you.  You are a good worker, and make working conditions as pleasant as possible.  You enjoy working in comfortable surroundings, and your jobs are personally gratifying.  You may wish to socialize with your fellows, but too many lunches encourage a temptation to overindulge, with a result of unwanted pounds and inches.

 

 

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 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.

 

 

Uranus in the First House

 

(The Eccentric)

 

You are a unique individual, capable of changing from moment to moment.  It is difficult for you to accept conventional approaches to education or religion.  Many friends admire your spirit, but few claim to know what makes you “tick.”   You experience life on a very personal level. Learn to distinguish between rebellion and anarchy.  The first may lead to growth while the second is destructive without a thought to replacing what you have wantonly destroyed.

 

 

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 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.

 

 

North Node in the Second House

 

(The Appraiser)

 

You question the value of everything and may be envious of what others possess.  You MUST establish what is meaningful to YOU!  You can’t siphon happiness and make it your own.  A fear that time is against you may produce feelings of inadequacy, but once you believe that you deserve what you get, you will make every effort to win rewards for good works.

 

 

 

 

Planets in Aspect

 

Pluto conjunct North Node  (Strength:  5.93)

 

(The Force)

 

There is no doubt as to how you feel or where you stand.  Friends revere you.  Adversaries honor your determination, drive, and ability to see the best and worst at a glance.  You may be tempted to achieve by subversion, but would be wiser to learn the truths of karmic law:  You must suffer the fate you decree for others.  All are part of the same plan.  Blend the sharp blacks and whites of your life into a gray area — a neutral ground on which to meet your fellow man.

 

 

Moon square Saturn  (Strength:  4.84)

 

(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.

 

 

Mercury opposite Pluto  (Strength:  4.79)

 

(The Zealot)

 

You are likely to invite conflicts because of your determination to prove yourself right.  It is probably true that you are an in-depth person who gives your “all” to whatever project is in view, but that does not preclude another’s right to a converse opinion.  Subversion will not add to your validity, and may be a factor in a “no-win” situation.  Tempering knowledge with tolerance is preferable to attracting enemies who share your obsessive nature.

 

 

Jupiter conjunct Saturn  (Strength:  4.67)

 

(The Choices)

 

You may have trouble deciding when you have had enough of structure.  Staying in a rut too long can push you to the other extreme.  Then, you may discard caution to take needless chances in your determination to expand faster than is practical.  Develop your plans at a measured pace so that what you achieve will be of lasting value.  Time is on your side.  Testing your endeavors as you develop can save you the pain of destroying what you have built in your efforts to move on.

 

 

Moon trine Mars  (Strength:  3.56)

 

(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 life, in turn, loves you back!

 

 

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  3.43)

 

(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.

 

 

Saturn inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  2.91)

 

(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!

 

 

Moon sextile Uranus  (Strength:  2.88)

 

(The Emancipated)

 

You enjoy change and thrive on excitement.  Your friends mirror your stimulating energy.  You are interested in subjects you can absorb quickly, or peripherally, if they require much concentration.  Opportunities may appear unexpectedly.  If they stir your imagination, you sometimes accept them because of intuitive nudges that come and go. Some might say you live life in the “fast” lane, but to you, an unscheduled spin is what makes the world go ’round.

 

 

Jupiter inconjunct Uranus  (Strength:  1.57)

 

(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.

 

 

Venus square Mars  (Strength:  1.43)

 

(The Arduous)

 

You try too hard to secure and maintain relationships that are exciting but may be too difficult to last.  If you are not demanding, you may attract another who is, and be in constant contention with their desires.  Your attractions stem from basic creative urges, so there is a strong physical bonding between you and your partners.  Since you are very aware of your individual identity, find ways to express it without the conflicts which can disrupt your unions.

 

 

Sun opposite Uranus  (Strength:  0.97)

 

(The Destroyer)

 

Outside influences may lead you to believe that upsets are inevitable.  In reality, unexpressed feelings result in tensions you find it difficult to acknowledge.  You may not recognize any pace but “fast-forward,” and ignore a need to “relax and enjoy.”  Running away is not an answer to problems.  Interactions with partners can indicate how you relate to the universe.  You are a unique individual who can invent the ways and means necessary to align yourself with the cosmos.

 

 

Mercury trine Neptune  (Strength:  0.80)

 

(The Sentimental)

 

You are a romantic who enjoys fantasizing dreams.  You will not be easily discouraged if you exercise a talent for writing.  There are those who will appreciate your efforts. You can be a daydreamer, but are also in touch with reality.  Though you may dislike discipline, you are capable of using it to achieve your aims.  Because of your affinity with humanity, you may sacrifice to help others, validating the spiritual insight inherent in your sympathetic nature.

 

Sun square Neptune  (Strength:  0.45)

 

(The Disoriented)

 

You may feel “lost.”  Misdirection in your life can result in repeated defeats and feelings of inadequacy.   Energy drops may be frequent so that you “never really feel good.”  You are at the center of your problems, so you, alone, hold the solutions.  It is not easy to reprogram for success, but begin by building resources in both body and mind.  Your idealism will encourage you to continue to believe that “life is what you make it” and can be beautiful, indeed.

 

Venus inconjunct Pluto  (Strength:  0.23)

 

(The Luxury Lover)

 

You tend to go overboard in your wishes and demands.  Your love can be possessive and jealous.  If partners do not conform to your ideals, you may insist on trying to make them over.  Your determination to cling to “what is yours” can become obsessive.  Money is all-important for your desired lifestyle, and you pursue it relentlessly.  You can drive that which you most desire away unless you truly begin to practice moderation and the old axiom of “Live and let live.”

 

Neptune sextile Pluto  (Strength:  0.01)

 

(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.”

 

Balance of Elements and Modalities

 

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 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.

 

 

Abundant Relationships

 

With abundant planets in these houses, relationships and communications with others are likely to be central to your life.  You can help others by exchanging ideas and making connections between people.  You will probably maintain active contact with a wide circle of relatives, friends and acquaintances.  You keep abreast of new information via various media and your friends.
