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

Libra Ascendant

(The Gracious)

If your mouth is not a Cupid’s bow and your teeth need capping, never mind!  Your smile can put sunshine into a cloudy day, anyway.  You are cordial and courteous under the most trying circumstances and seldom lose your poise.  You’re a good listener; also a scintillating and intelligent conversationalist.  Your weakness is your indecisiveness, but your first choice is usually right, if only you could decide to accept it.  Oh well!  Nobody’s perfect!

Sun in Cancer

(Keynote: I FEEL)

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

Sun in the Tenth House

(The Super-achiever)

You are determined to be a success, sometimes at the expense of others.  You may justify a workaholic’s devotion to your career by arguing that you are “slaving” so that “others may benefit,” which may or may not be so.  You must be entirely above-board or take the time to correct past mistakes or deceits before you reach the top, because sooner or later you will have to account for your actions.  However, rest assured that no matter your faults, it is NEVER too late to begin again when you have learned from mistakes to build a firm foundation beneath the edifice you plan to erect.

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 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 Cancer

(The Parent)

Your remarkable intuition lets you see the vulnerability of your fellow man, but it may be somewhat narrow in concept. You often depend more upon feelings than rationale to treat issues in an appropriate manner.  You may tend to relive childhood experiences, which can make you moody and sometimes reclusive, if the recall is painful.  Rather than retreat, learn from experience and consider the consequences of present actions as they may affect your future.

Mercury in the Tenth House

(The Reporter)

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

Venus in Leo

(The Extravagant)

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

Venus in the 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 Cancer

(The Pressure Cooker)

You will harbor resentments from childhood, and many of them stem from a rebellion against a mother-figure.  You may try to run away from imposed values with which you may not agree, but find you still have a need for the security of a home and family.  Discover early that you must earn the right to be your “own” person.  A certain amount of parental help is necessary as a fledgling discovers its wings.  Professional counseling may be advisable before you “blow your top!”

Mars in the Ninth House

(The Evangelist)

There is never a doubt as to where you stand or a reluctance to share your opinions with others.  You will champion any cause in which you believe.  Highly intelligent and a compelling speaker, you get your point across in the most efficient manner.  Add tolerance, charity and a pinch of humility to your list of assets and you will, without doubt, influence others to follow guidelines you are confident will better the world in which we live.

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.

Jupiter in the Tenth House

(King O’ The Hill)

Your supreme self-confidence will take you far in a career.  As a public figure, you might try politics, or acting.  You usually know what you’re talking about, are conscious of your image and try to keep your actions above reproach.  Only if you take your success for granted, or over-extend yourself, are you likely to fail in your undertakings.

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.

Saturn in the Second House

(The String-saver)

You save everything, believing someday you will find a use for it.  Your values are high. You live your life “by the book” and may be critical of those who don’t share your standards.  You may feel deprived financially, and if you encounter a need for material things early, will have a difficult time conquering a bent to frugality when there is no longer a reason.  Be aware that a miserly outlook can reflect a poorness of spirit as well as an empty purse.

Uranus in Aries

(The Radical)

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

Uranus in the Seventh House

(The Dancer)

You attract unusual partners.  Like a child at a masquerade ball, you frolic through relationships, sometimes ignoring commitments.  Circumstances in which you enter your associations will be in constant flux, requiring you to cope and mature.   You may feel helpless to do so.  Then, rely on past experiences to guide you.  Apply success patterns to present circumstances, or, if you have been unsuccessful in the past, try to correct your actions.

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.

Neptune in the Fifth House

(The Romantic)

You tend to put people on pedestals, and expect more of them than they can deliver.  Your life is a soap-opera of your own creation from childhood, full of smiles and pathos.  If you could bottle or sell your dreams, or find a practical use for them, such as projecting them into a theatrical project, the world that “always loves a lover” would welcome your refreshing views.  Otherwise, you may face perpetual disappointment by refusing to accept reality.

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.

Pluto in the Fourth House

(The Martinet)

At best, you exemplify the iron fist in the velvet glove in your demands of your family and the structure of your home.  A Victorian father would best describe the image you present to your children, who may eventually find your edicts absurd. We are often victims of victims.  Practices of your parents may no longer be valid when you have outgrown childhood.  Try to break any ties that keep you bound to outmoded ideas or policies that are no longer practical.

Cancer Midheaven

You will be attracted to a career which allows you to maintain strong family ties.  A career which allows you to be nurturing or productive will give you emotional and creative satisfaction.  You are good at sensing and supplying the needs of  the public.  Security is important to you.  It can cause you to value money for its own sake rather than for what it will buy.  Recognize that security also comes from loyalty and honesty in your business relationships.  You are capable of making personal sacrifices in order to nurture the growth of those with whom you work.

Although you are good at switching careers because of your good sense of timing, avoid an indiscriminate, profligate lifestyle which would leave you with no permanent home base or relationship bonds.  You need to have a home of your own and a settled existence.  If you were the proprietor of a little shop, this could be a second home for you.

Occupations consistent with your nurturing style of work include home- or family-oriented businesses, restaurant owner or manager, real-estate broker, jobs connected with fluids or the public, politician, teacher, counselor, manufacturer, musician, entertainer, dancer, art dealer, advertiser, marketer, nurse or doctor.  For the most personal career guide, also consider the nature of any planets which fall in the 10th house or conjoin the Midheaven, the sign and house placements of the moon, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

North Node in Scorpio

(The Transformer)

Your stubbornness will hold you back from chances to grow and achieve.  What you value as power may only be the strength to survive the turmoil you create.  With you, it’s “all or nothing” so you must watch the demise of invalid ideas, jobs, relationships, beliefs or conditions before experiencing the regeneration necessary for the fulfillment you feel is due.

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

Moon square Jupiter  (Strength:  10.65)

(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.

Jupiter conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  7.83)

(The Confident)

You may experience professional triumphs as a young person by being in the right place at the right time, but expand your prosperity beyond practicality.  To impress others, let an agent speak in your behalf.  Otherwise, you may appear to represent yourself as being “Fortune’s Favorite,” which can cause resentment among your peers.  That would be a pity, since some of your success is due to belief in yourself, but also a belief in humanity, which is a nobler resolve.

Jupiter trine Saturn  (Strength:  7.82)

(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:  7.57)

(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.

Moon conjunct Ascendant  (Strength:  6.88)

(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 inconjunct Neptune  (Strength:  6.19)

(The Impractical)

You should sort things out with an eye to the future, instead of accepting whatever works at the moment.  Extremely sensitive, you are also an escapist and must watch what you ingest as panaceas, to avoid serious illness or addiction to hallucinatory substances.  Improper diet can contribute to digestive problems.  You dislike restriction, but must try to believe in yourself and apply necessary self-discipline to overcome your confusion and prove your reliability and worth.

Saturn trine Neptune  (Strength:  5.82)

(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.

Mars conjunct Jupiter  (Strength:  4.47)

(The Exuberant)

You are interested in expanding your capabilities, perhaps through extended learning or travel.  Though impulsive, your successes can result in a belief that you lead a “charmed life,” and there is little you are afraid to tackle.  You enjoy leading others in the fulfillment of your goals.  Since your desires and seemingly-unlimited energy are unified, there is virtually nothing you cannot accomplish, once you have the resolve to complete what you begin.

Moon square Mars  (Strength:  4.38)

(The Threatened)

You are sensitive in the extreme and may fly off the handle irrationally.  Anxieties can obscure your ability to concentrate, and make you accident-prone, so extra effort towards developing a conscious awareness is advisable.  If you are a victim of insecurities, look for counseling or ways to quiet your fears that will establish a bulwark similar to that of followers of Zen Buddhism.  Retreat within to a place of tranquility until control is established and peace restored.

Mars conjunct Midheaven  (Strength:  4.11)

(The Lofty)

You are a mover and a shaker.  Your positive energy is like no other in intensity, but your negative qualities are equally strong.  You accomplish things quickly, but are not always free of error.  Life is a challenge you wish to handle alone.  You are a poor loser and demand individual credit for your achievements.  You will be upset if you do not get it. Since you give each project all you’ve got, it does seem little enough to ask for recognition you probably deserve.

Mercury square Uranus  (Strength:  3.64)

(The Pressured)

You seem constantly “under the gun” to produce creative ideas associated with your quick and innovative mind.  You may be clear as to your intent, but too original for others to accept your proposals.  You long to get away from it all but travel can be stressful because of unexpected delays and interruptions.  Try to scale your concepts so that others can understand them.  Experience will prove what is acceptable or so radical that it must be shelved for another time.

Uranus square Pluto  (Strength:  3.61)

(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.

Moon square Pluto  (Strength:  2.74)

(The Durable)

Constant challenges for change control your deepest feelings because your emotional turbulence can be destructive. Power struggles with others indicate power struggles within yourself which must be brought to light for resolution. Sometimes you will be attracted to that which is absolutely wrong for you but will pursue it anyway to your detriment. Recognize your difficulties as opportunities for evolvement.  You have more than adequate fortitude to survive and benefit.

Mars trine Saturn  (Strength:  2.50)

(The Pharaoh)

You are conscientious to a fault and put your energies into structures that will last.  No task seems too difficult.  You may set about early to build your monument, when your confidence is in the abilities of others rather than yourself. Take things slowly and without being overbearing or too forceful in your opinions or demands.  You may be pleased with quality rather than the size of your accomplishments and appreciative of experiences gathered in achieving your goals.

Mars trine Neptune  (Strength:  2.27)

(The Modest)

You may believe that yours is a life of self-sacrifice with little recognition.  You care for your next-door neighbor as your family and are drawn to those who need your nurturing ways.  You may use your wonderful imagination in a successful vocation, but are somewhat retiring, so your fine work is not immediately obvious.  You have a chance to discover that you are part of a universal plan of brotherhood and spiritual bonding that few are privileged to experience.

Mercury opposite Pluto  (Strength:  1.14)

(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 opposite Pluto  (Strength:  0.38)

(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.

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.

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 Fire

You are willing to let flashier individuals take center-stage and lead the way.  You are probably unenthusiastic about change and are passive when it comes to creating change through leadership.  You may be aggressive in a defensive way, but lack the self-confidence to take the offensive.  Lacking the impulsiveness of Fire, you are more likely to be a careful worker and a reliable mate, though you could stand to be less detached and more personally involved with your spouse and family.

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

Abundant Substance

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

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 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.

Lack of Relationships

Relating to other people probably plays a minor role in your life.  You could remain unmarried, be a loner, or even be an orphan.  Your thinking is probably subjective or personal, without the objectivity that comes from having communicated with many people.  Let others teach you by showing you and if they give you any feedback on your thinking, see if you can learn from it.

A lack of planets in the houses of Relationships can be offset by abundant planets in Air signs.

Abundant Cardinal

With an abundance of planets in the Cardinal signs, you find it easy to function on your own as an autonomous individual.  You have a pretty good grasp of how the real world works, which you may have acquired through your willingness to try new things.  An active person, you find challenges stimulating.  Success comes through big ventures that others are too intimidated to attempt.  You would make a good entrepreneur, but look for other indications in your chart to see if you have the qualities needed to stay with a project or grow a business.  You’re not really a team player.  You are likely to encounter some problems in your life as a result of being so one-sidedly focused on your own goals and activities.  But you are good at overcoming problems.  Personal survival is important to you and you are capable of learning.  You manifest your love through a lack of fear that makes the future happen.

Lack of Mutable

With a lack of planets in the Mutable signs, you probably go your own way in life without caring too much what other people think.  You know what you want and see little need to compromise.  You lack flexibility and adaptability.  You do best when you can establish a pace and stick to it.  Leave those sports and activities that require fast reactions and adaptability to others.

Sometimes you say things that offend others, because you are not especially concerned with the feelings or opinions of others.  In fact, you sometimes appall your friends with your single-mindededness and lack of sensitivity.  Because of your individuality,  people who are attracted to change and variety may find you stimulating at first, but after a while might find your predictability to be boring.  This is unlikely to keep you from pursuing your path.  Your path involves being yourself and changing the world.  Just don’t insist that others be like you.

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