Compliments of Debra Anne Clement, Astrologer www.debraclementastrologer.com SECTION I. The Structure and Intent of Your Life.

There are four items of general interest that we want to take up here in Section I: A) Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis, B) Elements and Modes, C) The Ascendant and Midheaven, and D) The Conjunctions. These four categories give us an intelligent overview of how you structure personal experience and what you aim for in life. This general patterning gives us a context to understand the specific personal meaning of the material in Sections 2 through 11.

A. Hemisphere and Quadrant Emphasis

The different areas of life are laid out in the horoscope by spatial territories called houses. These areas of life show interests and general involvements for each person. These areas can be grouped together for a vast overview of most basic inclinations of the person. The most useful general groupings of houses is into hemispheres and quadrants. Emphasis in a hemisphere or quadrant shows a particularly strong focus toward life from that perspective.

1. Hemisphere

The horoscope can be split into 2 equal parts, either horizontally (giving us the upper and lower hemispheres) or vertically (giving us the right and left hemispheres). The Upper Hemisphere shows the outer, more extroverted side of the personality, the Lower Hemisphere shows the more introverted and hidden side of the personality. In the Left Hemisphere planets are rising and this shows action. In the Right Hemisphere planets are setting and this shows reaction.

Most planets Below the Horizon

You have the majority of your planets below the horizon showing that you need time each day in isolation in order to recharge your batteries. You have a personal approach to life, preferring to work with people more than things and needing contact with the familiar in order to feel secure.

Most Planets Rising

You have the majority of your planets on the eastern half (or left-hand side) of your chart showing that you take great pains to be sure that you are free to act as you wish in life. Freedom of movement and expression are important to you. You have a strong feeling that you make your own destiny.

2. Quadrant

The two ways of splitting the horoscope into hemispheres can be applied simultaneously giving us four quadrants. The FIRST is called the quadrant of personality. The SECOND is called the quadrant of the environment. The THIRD is called the quadrant of relationship. The FOURTH is called the quadrant of service.

Most Planets in the Second Quadrant

You have the majority of your planets in the second quadrant showing that you will seek out the life experience that increases your sense of belonging, your sense of connectedness, your sense of personal expression. You aim to develop a more secure and meaningful social life that offers a wide spectrum of emotional expression and unfoldment. You desire to create.

1 B. Elements and Modes

The Elements and Modes show what we aim for in life. They show our broadest focus and in the most general sense, how we go about achieving our goals.

1. Elements

The four elements (fire, earth, air and water) are the most comprehensive inventory of the personality that we have. Everything in the universe including the human personality can be examined in terms of the four elements. FIRE is your basic enthusiastic urge, EARTH shows your concern for the material world, AIR is the element of abstract thought, WATER is your empathy impulse. Fire and earth are primitive and focus on the self. Air and water are derivative and focused on others. Fire and air are naturally extrovert, optimistic, active, and freedom oriented. Earth and water are basically introvert, pessimistic, passive, and security oriented.

Fire

You have 20% of your chart in the fire element showing that you have an awareness of how much energy you lack that others seem to have. Still, you have plenty of enthusiasm and stamina prevalent. You go toward each project with a certain amount of pre-selectivity. You are always prompted to do more, primarily because you don't trust that you are doing enough. In the long run, this single characteristic guaranties you accomplish much in life.

Earth

You have no earth in your chart. This means that the material world and its difficulties are not much of a focus for you. The resources in your life come and go without giving you a great deal of concern. You can always locate money or its equivalent when you are truly interested.

Air

You have a large volume of air in your chart. You are a true people person. You like connecting people with people, people with ideas, and ideas with ideas. You are interested in everything and may find yourself studying many subjects at once and taking great interest and pleasure in things other people find irrelevant. You may end up being very trivial in your perspective on life even though your scope of vision is vast. Still, others find you gregarious and pleasant. Avoid procrastinating on projects and chores. Gathering more data is no substitute for action. When your house, existing in this material plane, is on fire, don't collect more data, GET OUT.

Water

You have 30% of your chart in the water element. The emotional content of your chart is so strong that it is never a neutral ingredient in your life. How you are able to integrate this quality of empathy into the rest of your personality traits will determine how well you will mingle with others. Learning good relationship skills early in life is very important to your proper adjustment and socialization to life and your culture.

2. Modes

The three modes are CARDINAL, FIXED, and MUTABLE. The modes of expression show how you act out your urges in the world. They represent your most basic responding mechanism toward all of life experience. The cardinal planets show direct expression in physical action, leadership ability and strength. The fixed mode planets in your chart show reaction, consistency, persistency, endurance and stubbornness. The mutable planets in your chart show synthesis, blending, malleableness, thought, forethought, debate and wisdom. The following

2 statements show the way the three modes manifest in your life.

Cardinal

You have 20% of your chart in the cardinal mode showing that you are capable of both leading and following. You know how to assert your point of view or execute someone else's. Your preference is to follow someone else's lead and embark on your own path only when you feel it is necessary.

Fixed

A tremendous amount of your chart is in the fixed mode. You have endurance. Whether a course of action is good or bad you are more likely to stay with it than change. The principle of inertia is with you. When you rest, you have real difficulty getting going. When you are in motion, you have real difficulty stopping or even changing directions (even slightly). People find you a loyal friend and a tenacious enemy.

Mutable

You have 20% of your chart in the mutable mode. Your natural preference is to act or stay put when a circumstance of significance arises in your life. When important ingredients in your life are beyond your control you are capable of making deep and meaningful adjustments even though this is not your first choice.

C. The Ascendant and Midheaven (Signs and Aspects)

1. The Ascendant

The ascendant is symbolic of our relationship to our immediate environment. This is the point rising in the east when we are born. One manifestation of our immediate environment is our physical body. The physical environment includes our body, our surroundings and our emotional and mental states. Thus, the ascendant tells us how our inner core expresses itself, and how we take in information from others and the universe generally. The sign rising in your horoscope tells us the type of energy you are processing, the type of physical body that you have for doing the processing and the natural inclinations you have in the personal arena in life. The planets in aspect to your ascendant tell us the kind of energy and stamina you have as natural allies in life. The ascendant is opposite the seventh house cusp (the place where we meet others and the world). This axis (ascendant- descendant) is how we clarify ourselves through relationships. Planets in aspect to this axis indicate the types of people and the types of relationships we seek as well as how and why we seek them.

VIRGO RISING

You are focused on service to others and have a tendency to idealize anyone you are involved with. You are a good worker and very productive when your eye for detail and criticism don't slow you down to the point of making advancement difficult. Before taking on the particulars of a situation you should clarify your desires and ideals, as well as decide on a path of action and method of implementation; then, your life is productive, happy, and organized. When your feelings about yourself are too insecure you have the bad habit of looking out into life and trying to see what is possible, rather than looking into your self and seeing what you really want. Under these circumstances the details explode in front of your sight in a way that can easily lead you to the belief or feeling that you're beaten before you start. Your picture of yourself and of life are inherently attached to achievement and usefulness. Generally, you do best in life by starting projects small where you can control all the key variables and expand outwardly from there.

Sun Quincunx the Ascendant

3 Others do not see you as clearly as you would like. This can lead to misunderstanding and frustrations. Don't be shy about asserting yourself, but, know that it takes much effort to get your true message across to others.

Moon Square the Ascendant

You express your feelings in a way that can lead to misunderstandings and arguments. Some of the misunderstanding comes from communication difficulties and some of it comes from being at odds with others emotionally. Your personal life can improve when you make allowances for emotional differences between people in your community of family, friends, and lovers. You make your mark on the public consciousness, but your conflict between what you are doing and what you think you are doing stops this from being consistently positive. You have conflicting needs. In order to move forward, you must be free to act, unencumbered by other people's judgments. You need to be connected to the thinking of those around you in order to see accurately where you are going. This conflict is real but resolvable through emotional balance and practice. Worry less about whether or not others understand your intentions. Don't let difficulties in your daily routines stop you from completing your obligations.

Venus Quincunx the Ascendant

You reach for an unattainable beauty. Your quest for a higher ideal becomes more fulfilling as you get older and learn patience which is the key to moving from escapist confusion to powerful and enriching expression of your love nature.

Jupiter Square the Ascendant

Misplaced idealism and inflated expectations of life and of others can lead you in circles and away from your goals. You are lucky but need a consistent and realistic direction to have this count for something. Overindulgence can get you into trouble. Too much of anything, even the "good life", can get in the way of self- knowledge. Learn to be satisfied with what you have and you are successful. Learn to moderate your social life and you will find relationships more meaningful.

Saturn Sextile the Ascendant

Reliability, integrity, and self-discipline are three of your positive virtues. Patience and determination help you make progress toward any chosen goal. Since you take responsibility for what you do, you find it necessary to work by yourself at times. You can only relate fully to others when you feel good about yourself, which in turn revolves around feeling productive. People can rely on you and they come to know this.

Neptune Semi-Square the Ascendant

Your sensitivity and ideals give you an innocence and beauty that others like, although you tend to be naive. You believe in the strangest things and may end up being taken advantage of by others because you are gullible. You are kind, but your judgment is often poor. Learn more and more to see the world and people as they are, not as they could be.

2. The Midheaven

The Midheaven is the high point in your chart. It indicates what you aspire for, what you see as your duty, and what authority and limits are about. Because of this basic meaning the Midheaven indicates how you live out your social station and what you do for your career. The point opposite the Midheaven is the fourth house cusp, referred to as the nadir, which is the indication of our roots, our heritage. This axis (Midheaven-Nadir) indicates the way we grow in life. The sign on the Midheaven shows our basic energy and approach toward dealing with

4 the world. Planets in aspect to the Midheaven show qualities of our inner being that we wish to contribute to the world and that we wish to be fulfilled through our interaction with the outer world.

GEMINI MIDHEAVEN

You enjoy work that supplies you with lots of opportunity to express yourself and have love of variety. The truth may be an illusive ingredient and you may struggle to see things "as they are" rather than as you wish them to be.

Sun Trine Midheaven

Your bright and confident demeanor brings success in life. You have a powerful need to have a job that expresses your true personality. There is a dramatic quality that goes into all that you do. You are given a position of leadership several times in life without having to really earn it. You convey to people that you are capable of handling responsibility and authority. This happens because of who you are more than by what you do.

Moon Applying Opposition to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You grow through changes that are instinctive and out of your immediate control. Your family of origin affected your emotional development profoundly. You will have a period of life where you go through many changes of residence. You are known by the general public at some point.

Venus Trine Midheaven

Your timing and sense of social grace really facilitate your getting along with others. You like working with people and have a gentle side of your personality that emerges in career. You will long for some artistic expression.

Jupiter Applying Conjunction to Midheaven and unafflicted.

You have a lighthearted bouncy quality that gives levity to your administrative skills. You are helped by people in positions of authority who recognize your potential. Others have confidence in you. Your self-confidence is contagious and helps others feel better about themselves.

Saturn Quincunx the Midheaven

The pressures of life can weigh on you, especially in youth. Learning to handle your obligations in a timely and limiting manner is very important part of coming to understand what your life is really about. You have a well developed social conscience that is not always attuned to your desires. Frustrating compromises are necessary until you start fashioning your desires into a mold of social responsibility and awareness. From this point on there is no conflict between your culture, social vision and your personal destiny. You take pleasure in fulfilling your own goals as they are in step with your social picture.

Uranus Semi-Square Midheaven

You prefer to make your own rules and then to consider yourself an exception to them. You go through several changes of direction which makes your life interesting and exciting but does stop you from making consistent progress toward your goals. You trade security and acquisition for personal freedom.

Neptune Sesquiquadrate Midheaven

5 You have big ideas but it is quite difficult for you to see them through to some satisfactory conclusion. You may be chasing a level of perfection or ideal in life that never gets any closer to manifesting, no matter how hard you work toward it. This is because your ideal can only exist in a non-tangible realm.

D. The Conjunctions.

A Conjunction occurs when two planets are in the same immediate area of the Zodiac. The conjunctions in your chart show central linkings of basic energies in your life. When one area (represented by a planet) expresses itself, it brings along the other area (represented by the other planet). When you are studying the rest of this printout of your life, keep in mind that linking of these energies is a central theme in your life and these areas should be studied together.

Sun Conjunct Venus

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and V. VENUS - Your love nature, as a single unit. These two very primary ingredients of your being express themselves together. Whatever affects one of them affects both of them. This Conjunction represents a central theme in your life.

6 SECTION II. The SUN - Your Ego Structure

The Sun is the center of the solar system. All life revolves around it within this sphere. In the same way, the ego is the center of personal identity and gives integration and continuity to individual experience. In this sense, it might be said that the Sun shows character. This is the fixed pillar at the center of the person around which all else circulates or revolves.

The sign placement of the Sun shows the center of the individual's basic character. The sign of the Sun is the most primary indicator of the forms of experience you are attracted to. Further, this most important placement shows how and why you are attracted to these experiences.

The house placement of the Sun sign shows the primary area of expression for the individual in life. There is a psychological, emotional, and physical significance to the house placement of the Sun. Aspects to the Sun show ways that the core of the personality are linked to other component elements in the individual's life. Aspects to the Sun have a deep and overriding significance in the life of the individual and are generally more important, more prominent than other aspects in the chart.

SUN IN AQUARIUS

You are a humanitarian and an individualist. Your methodology in life tends to be unconventional and detached but you have good organizing skills. You know how to integrate several points of view and perspectives. You are a good coordinator, able to handle people and complex scheduling tasks. You have an overview, an intellectual synthesis of circumstances which doesn't lose track of priorities and first principles. You seek the truth in any situation, but it sometimes eludes you; the truth is often found in more emotional channels than the ones on which you automatically focus. If your life is to have depth, You will need to develop both your practical skills an well as your emotional skills.

Sun in 5th house

You seek out situations which bring you self-expression. You eke out self-definition through some ability to present yourself to others. An aura of the dramatic moves with you and colors all that you do. You have a strong presence and others tend to gravitate towards you.

Sun in 5th house Unafflicted

The urge to create may bring you the opportunity to perform for others. One success builds on another as your confidence grows. You have an instinctive feel for what pleases others.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

You are like the proverbial cat that always lands on its feet. You harvest experience and store it away. It becomes an asset. You have a natural instinct for seeing your own limits and the limits of a situation. You gauge your commitment, your involvement, and your energy well. Generally, you have enough of whatever you need to get the job done in life. This is perhaps the nicest and most productive influence to find in a horoscope.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR MOON

You have a skill for finding solutions to difficult problems. Your natural method for finding remedies to issues at hand usually requires some compromise from all concerned. You inner poise is a good starting point for any

7 project. You have a way of making sure both your ego drives and emotional needs are addressed.

SUN CONJUNCT VENUS

You have a magnetic charm to which people are naturally attracted. People like you. Your inner knowledge of people aids greatly in getting along with others. Because you have a second sense for what to say to people, you need to guard against mere people-pleasing, which can reduce your diplomatic skills to some form of self- seeking manipulation. You are aesthetic and have a certain inclination toward all that is beautiful. You were thought of as a cute child; if your interests in self refinement are cultivated in your adult years, you become a truly beautiful person.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You are lucky and optimistic. You are frank and direct with people without being hurtful. You are responsible and benevolent and can see how to get things done. You go through several changes in life which leave you in improved circumstances.

SUN TRINE YOUR JUPITER

OK, you are genuinely lucky. Others want to hop on your "bandwagon" when you move toward a goal. You have the ability to turn one win into another, creating incredible momentum. You know how to create enthusiasm and excitement for any project while at the same time having fun.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

Your restrictions are largely self-created. You find your fears and your ego drives getting in each other's way. The result can be that you are overly cautious. Self-control can be so overdone that you become difficult to live with or work with. A defeatist attitude can grow out of being too conservative. Strive to be responsible and still see the world in a positive light. As you become more trusting you overcome your propensity to back ill- conceived plans that stem from pessimism and desperation.

SUN SQUARE YOUR SATURN

You are a loner by nature. You can be disciplined but your seriousness and reserve can easily turn into depression. You are most successful when you put the past, with its hurts and disappointments, behind you. Your skills, drives, and instincts work toward your advantage when you overcome negative expectations.

8 SECTION III. The MOON - Your Personal Life.

The Moon inscribes a circle around the earth. It moves more swiftly than other astronomical bodies and thus represents day to day and moment to moment movements, adjustments and preoccupations. The Moon is the symbol of the personal life which is molded and shaped by our environment, by events, and by social and familial expectations. Further, the Moon shows our responses to life which are based on our past habits, experiences, our heritage and our individual and collective cravings.

The sign placement of the Moon shows how you project yourself to the general public, how the instinctive and imaginative component of your mind operates, how you express your feelings and your most general experiences of your family and mother.

The house placement of the Moon shows how and where you make day to day adjustments. Further, it shows the things you are most interested in dealing with in order to gain emotional equilibrium.

The aspects of the Moon show the general characteristics of the personality that are emphasized. Planets in aspect to the Moon are symbolic of qualities in the personality that are used instinctively, habitually and with a high degree of versatility.

MOON IN SAGITTARIUS

You see yourself as a person of real consequence. Your imagination is thrust into action with very little prompting. You are warm and have fun-loving relationships for the most part, but you are very independent. You like to explore, travel, learn and disseminate knowledge. You are an honorable person who is having a life of developing a higher intuition through the gathering of experience.

Moon in 4th house

When you are at home you have the desire to shut out the rest of the world. You strive to create a sense of security in the home and family early in life. You will return to this instinctive orientation to life any time your situation becomes too splintered or too abstract.

Moon in 4th house Unafflicted

Several times in life you find yourself moving based on some instinctive impression. You have the uncanny ability to be at the right place at the right time. Safety for you is a strong motivator. You envision this coming about by returning to how things used to be as you have a strong, instinctive attachment to your childhood. This can be a great asset as you go through the many changes that are required of you in life.

MOON IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

Your Moon in aspect to your Sun is a central feature of you life. This aspect is the primary indicator of your basic energy. We talked about this aspect in the Section II. The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR VENUS

You have a naturally pleasing manner. You seem to know what people expect and how to present yourself. Women often play a key role in your life because you really understand them instinctively. You are a gentle person preferring diplomacy to confrontation. Your grace and elegance puts others at ease.

9 MOON SEXTILE YOUR VENUS

You have a special understanding and appreciation for the gentle, receptive and harmony seeking aspect of life. Because of this quality every relationship contains some happiness and satisfaction for you. Marriage is a special mechanism for growth. You have a good imagination, good artistic skills, and empathy; all of which keeps you attuned to the public at large, who in turn generally supports you. Your ease in social relationships, natural charm, and graciousness gives a pleasantness to the way you present yourself.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You may suffer from pretending to be something that you are not. Avoid overstatement and exaggeration. Arrogance can stop you from correcting yourself when you are in an untenable position. Don't take yourself or life too seriously and you will find a lighthearted sense of humor that will ease your difficulties. See self-indulgence as an enemy to be avoided and luck will find you.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR JUPITER

Public support fluctuates a great amount in your life. First you can't get enough, then you get too much. Harnessing other people's enthusiasm to your projects is always problematic. If you have a good compromise between public and private life you may accomplish a lot of your dreams without having to "walk the plank" when the public withdraws support.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are emotionally sensitive to others and very idealistic. Your values and beliefs may be at odds with the status quo. As a matter of fact, they may be just odd. Don't promote an ideal or value that occurs to you without doing a thorough probe of your own deeper emotional motivations. You may find that you are wasting your time building bridges between two nonexistent points. The way out of this dilemma is to demand grounding of your ideas in the day to day workings of your own life. You may suffer from time to time from a desire to do certain things which you are also afraid of. You need to work hard at getting continuity between your values and your day to day life. Avoid escapist actions that act as compensation for feeling incapable or unworthy.

MOON SEMI-SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your ideals get in the way of integrating your practical experience. On an everyday pattern, flights of fancy can destroy a project if you aren't careful and attentive as to how your moods influence your judgment.

10 SECTION IV. MERCURY - Your Mental Life.

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. From the viewpoint of the earth it seems to dart back and forth across the face of the Sun, having three retrograde cycles a year. Mercury is the planet of your mental life. It shows how you receive, process and disseminate information. The sign placement of Mercury shows your basic attitude and mental habits. The aspects of Mercury show your scope of vision and your methods for accomplishing tasks.

MERCURY IN AQUARIUS

You are an original thinker. You move into an abstract realm with the ease of a pioneer walking over well-worn trails. Although your outlook is comprehensive, you need to be sure that you don't lose sight of the verifiable and the empirical. You have a clever manner of expression that can captivate others but you are attached to accuracy and this need can give your expression a certain weighty, stilted characteristic. You adjust to circumstances in an asynchronous way. Even you don't know how you will respond to change; you realize this, but don't see it as a problem. Although your thinking is spontaneous and creative it is more fixed and stubborn than you or others recognize. Having an open mind is an important value for you. You feel that to keep your options open for change only makes sense and to do differently would be to miss something important.

Mercury in 6th house

You generally want to keep checking your facts. You recognize the value of understanding how things operate. Thus, you may strive to increase your technical and practical knowledge. You may have some special interest in pets.

Mercury in 6th house Unafflicted

You have good manual dexterity and instinctual sense for what will work and what will not. Good work habits and a positive belief in your ability give you a competitive edge on the job.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You can be a tireless worker and powerful promoter of a cause. You like working with instruments and machinery and have some mechanical aptitude. Your temper can be problematic, getting you into squabbles and disagreements where there doesn't have to be any. You have difficulty being either a diplomat or a leader so you are best to define your own work and territory and stick to it. Learn to take a break when things don't go your way, rather than becoming angry and frustrated.

MERCURY SQUARE YOUR MARS

You "jump to conclusions". Your mind doesn't draw logical conclusions but instead reacts from your desire to accomplish a specific goal. This clouds your judgment, presents you with mental conflict, and makes you angry. To improve your mind you need to spend time thoroughly understanding your desires and motives. You argue with those who hold ideas different than your own.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You are propelled in life by a deep desire to experience and then convey the truth. You have common sense and the ability to get an extra mile out of yourself and others. Your faith in the inherent goodness or rightness in life

11 sustains you through difficulties. You are an attentive and curious student and an inspiring teacher.

MERCURY TRINE YOUR JUPITER

You have a way of exaggerating and embellishing descriptions of circumstances in your life in a way that creates a new pathway for others. Your aim is for a better world for others and a better life for yourself. You have the ability to communicate the positive ingredients in a situation in a helpful, meaningful and uplifting way.

MERCURY IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You see the future in everything that you do. You aspire to some long range goal or value. This may surface in a spiritual longing or in an artistic pursuit. You have talent for creating beauty and a natural eye for what looks nice. You do well in any career that engages your ability for aesthetic design. You have powerful and often quite accurate premonitions. Learn to work with and integrate your psychic perceptions.

MERCURY TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

You have dramatic presentations and can create great fantasy for yourself and others. Your compassion and instinctive feel for others comes forward in your mental life. You are in tune with other people's picture of life so you can be good at communicating an idea in a way that builds consensus.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are bright and insightful but the very strength and depth of your vision can mislead you. In consequence, you get in your own way a lot. The magnitude of a project can intimidate you so that you don't even embark on it. You are a perfectionist and compulsive. You fear being judged by others as inadequate and this quality has you afraid to act. Of course, you do overcome this many times in your day to day life, but it goes smoother for you when you stop attributing negative motives to those around you. You are able to do this when you feel better about yourself. Periods of meditation and contemplation are necessary to get to know yourself.

MERCURY OPPOSITION YOUR PLUTO

You experience a large amount of mental and emotional anxiety. You desire to know the truth and consequently can be quite invasive to others. You lose your chance to get close to people (which you desire very much) when you retreat into a "know it all" attitude. Truthfully, you are afraid of others and this can make you paranoid and appear arrogant to everyone. Your mind works smoother as you become more emotionally balanced.

12 SECTION V. VENUS - Your Love Nature.

The planet Venus shows the way you express your love nature and what you aspire for in life as good or beautiful. Venus has much to do with how you form your values. The sign placement of Venus shows the type of love energy you have. The house placement of Venus shows the natural area of expression of the love energy. The aspects of Venus indicate how and under what circumstances you express the gentle and loving side of your nature.

VENUS IN AQUARIUS

You love intellectual stimulation and companionship. You are idealistic, social and really unselfish. You are humanitarian and unconventional and unafraid of the path in front of you, regardless of whether others have been this way before or not. You value music, poetry and art from the future or the ancient past, often both. You find inner balance through your search for reality and through large humanitarian projects.

Venus in 5th house

You know how to enjoy life; you have a strong sense of the dramatic and love creative work. You have an interest in love and romance at an early age.

Venus in 5th house Unafflicted

The creative side of your personality shines with a certain brilliance. You can't help but attract attention from others. You like a good time more than most and have a strong presence in any group. Your love of the arts has given you a natural knowing of how to display your attributes to your best advantage.

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect of Venus to the Sun showing that you identify at a very fundamental level with your ability to express the loving, genteel side of your nature. This aspect of your nature was commented on in some detail in Section II. The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

VENUS IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have an aspect between Venus and the Moon. This shows that you have a powerful emotional nature and are affected at a deep level by other people's thoughts and opinions of you. This was taken up in some detail for you in Section III. The Moon - Your Personal Life.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You believe in yourself and in people. Your life tends to improve as you go along. You have a habit of knowing how to get one positive side of life pulling together with another positive quality. You acquire money and position as if it was natural to you. You are good at blending people and attributes of people together to get the most for the effort. Luck in life is a direct result of your optimism. Your life betters materially through marriage.

VENUS TRINE YOUR JUPITER

You are genuinely lucky and have a way with women who are lucky for you. You have long range vision and planning which carries you far. You understand the principle of momentum and know how to get positive linkage

13 working in all of your projects. You are the master of rolling over accumulated wealth, talent, and energy. The beautiful things of life come to you and you are big on personal enjoyment. Occasionally, overindulgence will wear you down. However, even when you make a bad mistake, you are cushioned against great harm. Others respond to your charm.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You have some real difficulties in love relationships and with the material world. On the surface, you are a gentle soul just trying to keep what is yours and trying to stop the world from taking advantage of you. Underneath this veneer you are driven by fear and greed and your life is poorer for it. Your instincts are conservative and you are frugal with money but this isn't sufficient to offset poor judgment with people and things. Reappraise your way of being in the world. If your hand is closed no one can take something from you, neither can you receive what others wish to give you.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR SATURN

Fear of rejection confuses and limits your life. You know only too well that you want things, people, and relationships that you can't have until you relax and take some risks. The down side of any gamble can scare you so much that you are miserly with your money and your affections. When you finally do reach out (and you always do) you tend to do it poorly. Overcome fear. Practice self acceptance without a lot of negative comparisons and judgments.

14 SECTION VI. MARS - Your Energy.

Mars is the planet of desires. It shows how you aim at your goals and how you power yourself toward your goals. Mars represents your most fundamental wants. The sign placement of Mars shows the fundamental nature of your assertions. The house placement of Mars shows the area of your life you are most likely to focus on. The aspects to Mars show how and to what extent your desires and assertions are involved with other aspects of living.

MARS IN SCORPIO

Your desire nature is strong, maybe even insatiable. You are passionate and your energy is unrelenting and disciplined into channels toward perceived goals. You go after what you desire in life with your whole being. You are thorough and when angry can be ruthless. You can be quite self-contained and you have an austere quality that means you can keep going even against great odds for a long period of time. You need to learn how to relax. Life is not always a battlefield.

Mars in 3rd house

You are a quick learner in youth. The dynamic energy for life and learning carries you through your teen years. As a young adult you may build unrealistic self-assessments into your way of learning. This comes because you expect life to follow along the same groove that it did when you were young. It doesn't! You will need patience to learn as an older person. You favor a direct manner of expression and others see you as being mentally assertive.

Mars in 3rd house Unafflicted

You convey the picture of yourself to the world as a brilliant communicator. You are a quick study, learning at the surface level of perception much more easily than others. You learn "how" without needing to learn "why" and then go on to something else. Remember the race between the hare and the tortoise? The hare can always win if it has the drive to keep going. Select projects that finish quickly. You can focus your attention easily on short term goals; long drawn out endeavors require different skills. This talent will get you quickly out of the "starting gate".

MARS IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

Your Mars in aspect to Mercury shows that you have a strong desire nature attached to your thought processes. The impact of this aspect on you reasoning process is discussed in Section IV. Mercury - Your Mental Life.

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You have good mechanical skill and interest in finding new and unique ways of accomplishing your goals. You are impatient with the way things are and strive for instantaneous change. Your inventiveness makes you a good troubleshooter as well as skills at streamlining a process. You love finding the quick path through a project and are willing to take the initiative in life. Remember, less hearty souls don't travel as fast as you nor do they have your love of speed.

MARS TRINE YOUR URANUS

Dynamic activity and your spontaneous expression of energy is quite useful in getting your point across to others.

15 There is a definite mental quality to the way your energy expresses itself. You are detached and analytical when finding your way to a goal.

MARS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You have lots of energy that erupts into violence every so often leaving you confused and exhausted. In industry, you have a taste for secrecy and covert operations. As a warrior you are more at home leading a guerrilla band in the jungle than as a general leading the parade down Fifth Avenue. You are at war with yourself. Your conscience is at odds with your desires and only long-range study and integration of your personal values can lay the foundation for smooth, comfortable, and regular energy. Until this happens, you suffer from having abundant energy that bursts forth violently, then little energy for a spell. The violence, anger, and disagreements with others stop as well as abnormal needs for secrecy (which just becomes more normal needs for periodic privacy) when you arrive at some degree of self-understanding.

MARS SQUARE YOUR PLUTO

You have great capacity to be violent, angry, pernicious, and willful. Your energy is greatly amplified and spills over into everything that you do. Your desire nature tends to run on its own if not directed by your reasoning. Discipline, reason, and correct judgment are difficult ingredients for you to use on this aspect of your nature, but, it is the path out of a deeply ingrained habit of reacting to circumstance. Work to change the focus of your energy any time your motive for acting is defensive.

16 SECTION VII. JUPITER - Your Values.

Jupiter is the king of the planets. He is in charge of the order of creation. Jupiter shows your values, where you feel confident and in control, and where you feel you have something to teach others. The sign placement of Jupiter shows your values in life. The house placement of Jupiter shows the area of life you feel luckiest in and the area you receive the most help from other people and from the cosmos. The aspect patterns to Jupiter show the direct network of good and administrative power in your life.

JUPITER IN GEMINI

Your primary value is information. You are perpetually bubbling over with new ideas and always anxious for more input. This is because you have an innate belief that knowledge can solve all problems that emerge in life. You try to relate all factors that come to you to everything else that you know about. As a consequence, you develop great mental versatility and acquire skill at verbal expression. Your love of novelty may lead your energy in too many directions at once. The big difficulty in life for you is to be spread so thin that you have no closure on any subject. Make sure your knowledge of a subject is not so general as to be superficial.

Jupiter in 10th house

You are often helped in your climb in life, by people higher up in the company or system you are involved with. You naturally tend to excel in any career. You believe in your ability and administrative skills and this faith in yourself alone is responsible for securing some position of authority.

Jupiter in 10th house Unafflicted

You like the challenges of life and find the climbing exhilarating. Others respond to your good ideas and your enthusiasm. You are always looking for ways to expand your sphere of influence. Your search is often rewarded.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect from Jupiter to the Sun showing a deep connection between your values and your ego. As a consequence of this you have a stronger faith in your beliefs than most people and you are more likely to act on them. You have the potential for being quite an inspiration for others. In Section I. (The Sun - Your Ego Structure) there is more commentary on this trait of yours.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have an aspect from Jupiter to the Moon showing an interest in expressing values through your daily life. What you believe has more impact on what you do than it does for most other people. The information on this topic in Section III. (The Moon - Your Personal Life) may be helpful in grasping how you do this.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

You have Jupiter in aspect to Mercury indicating a deep commitment to communicate something of value. You will have a commitment to knowing the truth and conveying it to others. You will find some further information on this topic in Section IV. Mercury - You Mental Life.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO VENUS

17 You have an aspect of Jupiter to Venus. This indicates that you expect the positive to happen. Your life values easily adjust to your taste, love nature and your sense for the beautiful. This creates some feeling of abundance for you. Your values are in tune with your affection. You may find the information in Section V. (Venus - Your Love Nature) useful in understanding this process.

18 SECTION VIII. SATURN - Your Obligations.

The planet Saturn shows where you feel restricted. You feel obligations and fears through Saturn. Because of your feeling connected with Saturn you are either responsible or neglectful. The sign placement of Saturn shows the basic type of energy connected with your obligations. The house placement of Saturn shows an area of life that you feel restricted in and work hard to obtain the things that come to you. The aspects of Saturn show the most direct involvement of other areas of your life with your feelings of responsibility.

SATURN IN SCORPIO

You are afraid of not having emotional security. At the same time, you don't want to depend on anyone else for emotional fulfillment. What a dilemma. You have tremendous amounts of emotional containment. This can lead to a certain narrowness of outlook. You can be disciplined and exacting. You really need to develop your higher values and virtues in order to handle your emotions in a positive way. Try to be more direct with your feelings. Trust others more, but only be with them if you like them and get rid of your own ulterior motives.

Saturn in 3rd house

You seem to work harder than most people at learning basic communication skills. You may feel that you didn't get as much formal education as you wanted or needed. Or, you may have gotten an early education which wasn't to your liking.

Saturn in 3rd house Afflicted

You may have difficulty getting your thoughts out to others. Don't bottle up everything inside of you that you should be expressed. Your imagination can trap you but the real facts of a situation are always liberating.

SATURN IN ASPECT THE SUN

You have Saturn in aspect to the Sun showing that you identify deeply with your obligations in life. This aspect of your nature is explored more deeply in Section II. The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

SATURN IN ASPECT TO VENUS

You have Saturn in aspect to Venus which shows that you take your love nature seriously and that you have a strong sense of duty. This is taken up in Section V. Venus - Your Love Nature.

19 SECTION IX. URANUS - Your Search For Freedom.

The planet Uranus is beyond the orbit of Saturn and can't be seen without the aid of a telescope. It represents the sky in us, that which transcends the limits of finite life. Uranus raises the vibration of everything it contacts. The sign placement of Uranus shows your broadest striving for freedom. The house placement of Uranus indicates your area of direct unique expression. The aspects to Uranus indicate the way you express your need for higher consciousness.

URANUS IN CANCER

You are sensitive and emotional. You blend instinct and intuitive understanding together. You may move on such a fast track mentally, that the reasoning, analytic function gets lost in the shuffle. A consequence of this is that you will find yourself doing things that you don't understand and have not clearly thought through. This unconscious action pattern can lead you to altering certain fundamental assumptions about your own emotional foundations in life. This reevaluation of your feelings can lead you to having a very unusual and creative personal life and family living situation.

Uranus in 11th house

You are a true patriot of social causes. You are optimistic, humanitarian and a true believer in the goodness of people deciding their own destiny. You have several different types of friends, some quite unusual. Your ideas are ahead of their time.

Uranus in 11th house Unafflicted

You are more than just an inspiration to others. You are not a "grandstander" but intentionally pull originality out of others; consequently, you are supported and utilized rather than just admired from afar.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have Mars in aspect to Uranus which means you are attempting to raise the vibration of your desire nature during the course of this life. Exactly how that works out in the day to day world is shown by Section VI. Mars - Your Energy.

URANUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

Your idealism is lopsided and tends to be at odds with the society you live in and the direction of your culture. This doesn't make your ideals wrong, just impractical. You are prone to nervous fits and disturbed periods where it is difficult to accomplish much and difficult to relax. Somehow you seem to express your society's dissatisfaction with itself. Your life betters through the study of meditation, biofeedback, yoga, and/or grounding or centering activities.

URANUS SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

You seem to get caught between personal freedom and your higher social ideals. This conflict is pronounced at times and other times scarcely noticeable but, it is always present, subtly coloring all your decisions.

20 SECTION X. NEPTUNE - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.

The planet Neptune has an almost perfectly circular orbit. It represents the part of our nature that strives for perfection, that looks to some higher ideal. The planet Neptune rules the ocean and the part of us that is beyond the limits of the shores of personal existence. The culture moves with the cycles of Neptune and it is the primary indicator of your connection to the culture that you live in. The sign of Neptune shows an ideal that you desire to manifest. The house placement of Neptune shows the area of your life that you want to express this ideal in. The aspect patterns of Neptune indicate the most direct connections yet most subtle networking of your personality into the world at large.

NEPTUNE IN LIBRA

You have a powerful desire to create harmony because you believe that by doing so you reduce the pressure on people and create the circumstances of justice, peace, and understanding. You see humanitarian ideals not just as correct, but aesthetically pleasing.

Neptune in 2nd house

When you believe that you have plenty of worldly resources, money comes to you steadily. As soon as you worry about money, a problem develops. Have faith and the situation always stays healthy. Things are always confusing in the financial realm for you. Your situation seems to defy logic and understanding.

Neptune in 2nd house Unafflicted

You profit from complex financial arrangements which involve many people and perhaps government institutions.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have an aspect of Neptune to the Moon. This indicates a deep interest in the arts and in cultural pursuits. How your aesthetic taste influences your daily life is discussed further in Section III. The Moon - Your Personal Life.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

You have an aspect of Neptune to your Mercury showing a deep vision of the truth and some psychic awareness. This perception of yours is discussed in some detail in Section IV. Mercury -Your Mental Life.

NEPTUNE IN ASPECT TO URANUS

You have Neptune in aspect to Uranus showing that one part of your nature will have a propensity to act out the unexpected. How this manifests is indicated in Section IX. Uranus - Your Search for Freedom.

NEPTUNE IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are fundamentally an idealist. You would like to see change come about in a way that doesn't destroy the existing social order. You believe in transition and transformation as saner and kinder principles of social change than revolutionary upheaval.

NEPTUNE SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

21 Your higher ideals are the continuous recipient of forceful energy for change. Your long range perspective (even though this may at times be unconscious) is always toward your ideals winning out through deep self transformation.

22 SECTION XI. PLUTO - Your Need For Fundamental Change.

The planet Pluto represents the dark underground part of you. It shows your ability to transform the most fundamental properties in your own inner nature. The sign of Pluto is the way the obsessive, compulsive and committed part of your nature expresses itself. The house placement of Pluto shows the area of life where you make your most fundamental and most potent changes. The aspects to Pluto show the deepest most unconscious links in your personality structure.

PLUTO IN LEO

At best, you believe in yourself and are willing to stand on your own. You have a need for self expression. At worst, you are completely stuck on yourself, and have a strong desire to bend everyone else to your will.

Pluto in 12th house

You are driven to really understand life. You have such powerful drives, though, that you will periodically burn out. You are always on the borderline between dark and light. You feel capable of anything good or bad. This infinite expanse at the unconscious level gives you an experience of having a vacuum inside of you. This creates a focused and powerful attraction point for people, experiences, ideas and emotions. This is why so many peculiar things happen to you and why you periodically seem to go numb.

Pluto in 12th house Unafflicted

You have deep inner strength as your emotions are profoundly linked to the river of life. Your imagination is focused through the creative instinct of the mind. This means that when you think about something long enough, it happens. Make sure you know what you want.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO MERCURY

You have an aspect of Pluto to Mercury. This indicates that you have a profound mental life. This is detailed out in Section IV. Mercury - Your Mental Life.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO MARS

You have an aspect of Pluto to Mars. This indicates that you have a very powerful desire nature that is being refocused. This aspect of your life is discussed in Section VI. Mars - Your Energy.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO NEPTUNE

You have an aspect of Pluto to Neptune which shows your involvement in a large cultural process. This involvement is described in Section X. Neptune - Your Spiritual Aspirations and Ideals.

23 SECTION XII. SUMMATION.

A. YOUR UNIQUENESS

Part of your style of being a person is tied to your personal method of adapting to and interacting with other people. This aspect of your personality shows itself through every aspect of how you deal with the environment. This method of your being encourages as well as reveals your uniqueness.

YOUR MAJOR PLANETARY ASPECT IS A SQUARE.

You have lots of energy and you need it. Your life changes through the resolving of conflicts. You are a fighter and you get clarity by drawing lines between the perceived good and bad of the moment. Your inclination is to be action oriented first, and reason things out after the battle. Your hunches are based on the odds. You take an empirical approach to problem solving. Your keyword is Energy.

B. YOUR EASIEST AREAS.

The following material is an index of things that you have developed as inner resources. You may take them for granted, but in times of reevaluation and rest this part of your personality can provide you comfort and strength.

Sun in the Fifth House.

Your talent for self-expression is a great asset. You put your best foot forward when you are creating something. Whenever life stagnates ask yourself if you are having any fun with what you are doing. Often you are able to improve circumstances by simply demanding more enjoyment out of life.

Moon in the Fourth House.

You have a good family life. Your ability to focus your attention on your personal life gives you continuity in your daily habits. Family, your past, and heritage means more to you as you get older.

Mercury in the Sixth House.

You like learning and are instinctively drawn toward the critical details of any project. This attribute gives you the right inclination towards your environment. You apply yourself to the most necessary items and take care of them. Your day-to-day focus keeps you in motion so that you have a sense of achievement and progress.

Mercury in Aquarius.

Your mental life is a great compensation for relieving stress in your life. The higher and more comprehensive view of life gives you unique skills for problem-solving.

Mars in Scorpio.

You have great stamina and a powerful presence. You win in life by being able to keep creating more energy from somewhere deep inside. When you are committed you have the energy. The way that you get things to happen in your life is by being persistent. Application of your energy over a long period of time always brings you some of what you want.

24 Uranus in the Eleventh House.

You have the ability to see and utilize the good in everyone you meet. Your inclination to focus on the uniqueness of each person and each situation in life gives you a powerful asset in everything you do.

Pluto in the Twelfth House.

You have deep intuitions that point the way to fundamental change. Something deep within keeps prompting you to transform some aspect of your nature. At this level of self analysis, faith, patience and drive blend together in a way that insures steady progress. Because of this, you are able to go through intricate transitions with ease.

C. YOUR MOST PERSISTENT DIFFICULTIES.

This material describes the "cutting edge" of your work on yourself. The thoughts rendered here are meant as further guidelines for growth. You should take difficulties and challenges in the right spirit. They are always positive indicators as to how you can experience the joy of becoming a better person and more like your REAL SELF.

Afflicted Saturn

Fear and self-restriction have stopped you many times from enjoying life as much as you could. Work on breaking the habit of worrying by learning to see it and feel it as starts to manifest and using your sense of detachment to stop it. When you act unkindly to others or you are reacting to their unkindness to you, get to the roots of your fears. Force yourself out of your fears and refuse to let them be your motivation. You will see a new picture of the universe and your place in it start to develop along very pleasing lines.

Sun in Aquarius

You are indirect in your expression of the ego. For this reason, you are harder for others to get to know. Remember this when you feel slighted or misunderstood. Concentrate on being more open to others.

Jupiter in Gemini

Your values are shortsighted and your "devil-may-care" approach to life may get you in trouble if you don't restrain your inclination to get involved with new projects. You must develop the habit of taking stock of the long view before jumping into something that will give you new responsibilities while leaving prior commitments unfinished. You do well when you complete your current project before taking on a new one.

Jupiter in the Tenth House

You have difficulty separating the essence of your values from how they appears to others. What you really stand for is more important than whether or not it is accepted by others. When you learn to be completely honest with yourself and others, you have a great skill for facilitating the completion of any project or group work you become involved with.

D. THE GROWTH ASPECTS

The Growth aspects operate differently than other aspects in your chart. While it is possible to use them descriptively, as showing finer shades of meaning within the chart, we wish to use them in a different manner for our purposes. The growth aspects are tools of self development. If you apply attention to the various qualities

25 in your nature linked through the growth aspects, you will see positive change over time. These qualities generally do not show quick effortless solutions, but instead show a path of change requiring exertion and emotional honesty. Under these circumstances, the way these aspects of your nature change through time are truly amazing. The qualities mentioned here can be the very mechanisms to release the highest, finest side of your nature.

Mercury in Growth Aspect to Uranus

You come up with ideas that sound great but are not possible to materialize. Remember, genius may be partly inspiration but not every idea is worth the effort to make manifest. Your inner life can generate thousands of good ideas that you can't do anything with. Be discriminating and your efforts are less likely to be wasted.

Mercury Quincunx Uranus

The new and unusual things that occur to you may carry you far from the basic needs of your everyday life. Good ideas do not necessarily require you to act immediately to bring them about. Positive innovation will require you to alter yourself and your basic habits before you will see much change in the world or your environment.

Mars in Growth Aspect to Neptune

Just when you seem to have your aims and goals determined it's as if they evaporate or expand to some much larger context. Your ideals always seem to be out of reach of your energy. To compensate you may live in an alternate reality, escaping into fantasy where you control or create the rules or you become slightly cynical, feeling victimized by circumstances. The way out is through slow, careful integration of your values and higher ideals bit by bit. This requires patience and much trial and error reality testing.

Mars Semi-Sextile Neptune

Certain things that you aim for in life seem to be unavailable for you at the last minute. You may work long and hard on a project only to stumble coming down the finish line. Real growth starts occurring for you when you are able to see that something inside you gets in your way. Further, some aspect of your higher idealism intervenes in an attempt to raise the level of manifestation of your energy; and, when you see and acknowledge this aspect of your nature you are able to nurture the positive, idealistic, and dramatic qualities in your artistic expression. There is a subtle magnetic quality in your being that can be quite persuasive and helpful to others under careful guidance.

E. THE DECLINATIONS

There is another dimension to your astrology chart. This has to do with planets being the same distance from the celestial equator. When both planets are on the same side of this plane there are called parallel. When the planets are the same distance but on opposite sides of the celestial equator they are referred to as being contra- parallel. Both of these aspect activate your ability to organize and reorganize some aspect of your life.

Sun Parallel Mars

You have a good inner drive and great recuperative powers. Your immune system works very well. You are driven by an undertone of anger much of the time. This can create rash and aggressive behavior. Getting to the root and understanding your drives helps free and strengthen your energy.

Jupiter Parallel Uranus

26 You have an undercurrent of energy in everything that you do. You have the ability to see opportunity as it appears and an artistic skill in acting on your insights. Your musical perception and sense of the world can give you help in obtaining a career as well as helping you keep one step ahead of others in the art of communicating.

Jupiter Parallel Pluto

You have the ability and opportunity to produce great wealth and abundance in life. You have luck, determination, and the focus to create something of value. Overdoing things and pride are your weaknesses and when overcome your relentless drive produces much of value.

Jupiter Parallel Midheaven

You have luck when it comes to getting a job and you can use this skill to make many beneficial changes in your life. You believe in yourself at some fundamental level and this positive attitude supports you in achieving your goals in life.

Uranus Parallel Pluto

Your basic conflicting urges from deep within your being will rush forward every so often, causing you to make dramatic changes in your life. As you get used to letting the need for uniqueness come forward and express itself, this aspect of your nature stops being so explosive and just becomes part of the inventiveness that makes you so fascinating.

Uranus Parallel Midheaven

Sudden changes emerge in your life and if you are good at going along with the changes your life is easy. If you resist them you become quite nervous and your path turns from spontaneous joy to periodic upset. Be willing to take abrupt changes, then life is fun.

Neptune Contra-Parallel Ascendant

You can be quite delusional in your thinking about other people and the role that others play in your life. If you are expressing an artistic and creative side of your personality then this tendency can come to a bright and happy manifestation. Just a glimpse into the higher realms of consciousness or into other people's thinking process can be unbalancing if you use this as your inner source of information. Practice going slow with new people in your life.

North Node of the Moon Contra-Parallel Ascendant

Your relationships to other people feed your soul. The exact manner and style of your personal interactions need to be regular and regulated in order for you to feel energized. You have some patterns from the past that you will need to relinquish when you wish to change your way of dealing with people. Your frozen persona serves you well under most circumstances; when it does, this is an important invitation to change.

F. YOUR KARMIC DIRECTION

The Moon's North Node is an all encompassing and instructive point of synthesis in the chart; we could easily start or end our analysis with this one single factor. Because this indicator is so all inclusive it most shows your karmic direction in life. The sign placement of your North node points to your destiny. When your actions, interests, and values are structured by this position, your general sense of personal well being improves. The

27 house placement of the North Node of the Moon indicates or points to an area of life, an arena of experience. By confronting, even augmenting this arena you can inadvertently improve every aspect of your life. By dealing with issues connected to the North Node placement in your chart your general character strengthens and refines.

North Node of the Moon in Capricorn

Be responsible, practical, and thorough and your life improves. The key to success is to avoid falling into emotional responses. Avoid situations where others take care of you or where dysfunctional behavior can emerge through old feelings and habits. Negative enmeshments in others' lives leaves you either burdened or weakened. Avoid emotional dependency.

North Node of the Moon in Capricorn and in the Fifth House

Be powerful, act directly. You can easily spend time just observing life and sulking. Be willing to act in a forceful and mature manner. The more you retreat from life the more confused you become. The more you act on your perceptions of what must be done, the better your life seems. Satisfaction comes from creating your own future in a specific, disciplined, and definitive manner.
