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 Setting

You have the majority of your planets on the western half (or right-hand side) of your chart. Your natural tendency is to seek others' approval and to question the probable outcome of an action before putting your first efforts forward.

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.

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 a lot of fire in your chart. Fire is the element of energy, enthusiasm, and immediate and spontaneous focus on the self. You go from event to event selecting projects that give the full range of outlet for your energy. This process of selection is precognitive, instantaneous and automatic. People respond to the inspirational spark in you and your enthusiasm and boundless exuberance is evident whenever you are being your real self.

Earth

You have 30% of your chart in the earth element. This shows you know how to be practical. It is important that you stay balanced in your approach to the material world. You are prone to obsess on details and practical considerations and then periodically ignore them. You do much better to develop a mode of operation for being in the world and then to adhere to this way of being, regardless of your particular feelings in the moment.

Air

Mercury is your only air planet. Consequently, just 10% of your chart is in the air element. You can grasp the abstract significance of events in your life and communicate them to others but, you have difficulties in living out your concepts. This can be a stumbling block for you as you alternately try to ignore the reasoning process altogether, then embrace it obsessively. Balance between thought and action makes your personal life easier and helps you be "in tune" with others.

Water

You have 20% of your chart in the water element. You work hard during this life to develop your emotions. You have lots of opportunity to work on your feelings. Your sense of emotional inadequacy drives you to express your feelings more. The outward appearance of caring substitutes for real concern while you are young; true empathy develops later in life.

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 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

You have 30% of your planets in the fixed mode. You know how to persist on a course of action that you have selected. On the other hand, you have good sense generally as to when to desist. You are well poised between your ability to change and your inclination to let your habits carry you forward.

Mutable

You have an abundance of mutability in your chart. You are a thinker and attempt to accommodate a number of circumstances and people in your environment. You may have difficulty choosing a direction and staying with it. Truth has a way of becoming a highly personal subjective factor; consequently, others think of you as not being able to communicate simple truths in a factual way. You are nervous and may need more B-Vitamins in your diet, rest, and meditation in order to be balanced.

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.

ARIES RISING

You have a very direct manner for dealing with others. You wish people would be able deal with you in a very direct way. Others come into your life in very diplomatic ways because you are so direct that it is hard for you to connect with others who are not prepared to do it all your way. You have abundant energy and accomplish much by acting on impulse. You throw yourself into activity but don't always have the patience or energy to finish your projects. Your natural environment is one where the work is completed swiftly. You like to move on to the new and pioneering side of a project and seldom are interested in sitting still for the rewards. You gain pleasure through movement: physical, emotional and mental. People are attracted to your spark of enthusiasm and your genuine and direct mannerisms. Relationships tend to stay simple with you because none are at loss to discover where they stand with you.

Sun Opposition the Ascendant and in the 6th house and unafflicted.

Relationships are very important to you. But you feel that you have to earn other people's approval through what you contribute to their lives. You are good at second guessing other people's needs and addressing them in a way that is competent and appropriate. Your habit of putting yourself in the other person's shoes allows you to help others in practical ways. This gives you added insight and interest in any line of work that has to do with fulfilling other people's needs. Your closest friendships will often be with work associates.

Moon Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 12th House and unafflicted.

Others are attracted to you because they feel your concern for them. Your nurturing instincts are strong and you may be quite good at coming up with unique solutions to other people's difficulties. You can reach out to the general public and like dealing with lots of people but still need time by yourself each day. Because of this you need to be very selective in your personal relationships so that you get time and energy for yourself. Your ability to connect with others is so strong that you need limits. Your positive self-acceptance creates a wholesome atmosphere around you that helps and inspires others.

Mars Trine the Ascendant

You are a vigorous team player and an energetic competitor. You like to win and this is the foundation of the leadership qualities in you. Your idea of a good time is to be in a situation that allows you to express your best. This is an intensely personal issue for you but you are also very good at motivating others to go beyond their mental, physical and emotional limits. Regardless of your situation in life, you excel in whatever you do. This doesn't guarantee success, only progress and accomplishment. Physical exercise is important to you.

Saturn Conjunct the Ascendant and in the 1st House and unafflicted.

Life is serious for you. You were born feeling responsible. Be carefully self-defining and your life improves. If you take on the whole world's suffering you get beaten down and will have all kinds of complaints: physical, emotional and mental. You are practical, cautious, and conservative by inclination. Slow, steady progress can be yours if you use these qualities to earn your way. Be responsible, not fearful. Worry is your enemy and consideration and humility your friends.

Uranus Opposition the Ascendant and in the 6th House and unafflicted.

You like excitement and freedom in relationships, and attract people that show you ways to alter your daily routines. Because you like change, commitment only comes with people who are creative and interested in real openness, even at the cost of stability. You are happiest with environments and people that support and encourage inventiveness and experimental change.

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 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.

CAPRICORN MIDHEAVEN

You wish for career to be an area carefully limited to its proper domain in life without it intruding on your personal life or other relationships. You strive for integrity and a sense of personal responsibility and social worth.

Sun Square Midheaven

You have a strong personality that others recognize and this promises that you go through a rise in life to a position of betterment. This is not always a straight climb up the mountain side as you are gripped in some inner conflicts that get you into trouble and slow down your forward progress. Most of these conflicts give you difficulties with authority figures and impair your ability to learn quickly from them. When matters of pride and control are handled properly you grow quickly and find very positive self expression in both career and home life.

Moon Square Midheaven

You wish to be known by others and cannot break out of your personal limitations. You wish to remain anonymous at times and at other times become a "household word". In the long run, you get to your goal of being well known and liked for things you admire in yourself. The public arena is a natural operating environment.

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 Trine Midheaven

You are lucky in landing a new job and in carrying out a job you already have. You are aided in career by your sense of confidence and your administrative skills. You are a natural salesperson and you have progressive management skills.

Uranus Square Midheaven

Working for someone else is almost unbearable. You much prefer the freedom to design your own hours and work methods. You have real difficulty getting along with others in positions of authority. Remember, although you know exactly what you are doing at times, your methods and actions look arbitrary and chaotic to others unless you take the time to explain yourself. This is always to your advantage as others are important to you.

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 Uranus

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and IX. URANUS -Your search for freedom, 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.

Sun Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections II. THE SUN - Your ego structure, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, 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.

Venus Conjunct Jupiter

Think of Sections V. VENUS - Your love nature, and VII. JUPITER -Your values, as a single unit. This Conjunction shows a central theme in the way you form your values. It is fundamental to the way that you acquire what you want.

Uranus Conjunct Pluto

Think of Sections IX. URANUS - Your search for freedom, and XI. PLUTO -Your need for fundamental change, as operating together. This combination shows strength of purpose and drive for spontaneous creativity. This Conjunction is a central ingredient in your life.

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 VIRGO

You want the world to be perfect. You expect perfection from yourself. You are good at analyzing and rendering conscientious and systematic service in an honest and impartial way. You are so critical and seemingly unemotional that others may dislike you or at least feel you are very boring. You do lack imagination and tend to be somewhat of a "grind", but when it really matters you are there and can be relied upon. You are an exacting and responsible craftsman. When you become truly tolerant and less self-critical, your vision of life expands. Then, you enjoy life rather than just exist and produce in it.

Sun in 6th house

You have a tendency to immerse yourself in detail. You are interested in making sure that you "get it right" when you set out to do something. The positive side of this is that you are well adapted to getting along with the world on its own terms. You know how to adjust to others and to circumstances which are beyond your control.

Sun in 6th house Unafflicted

You instinctively know where to put your effort in order to get results. You achieve much in life through personal effort. You are lucky because you understand that you "get what you pay for in life". Hard work brings success because you have an eye for the important details in any project.

SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR MOON

You have a tendency to get in your own way. You have material and emotional needs that cut against the grain of what you try to accomplish for ego satisfaction. You have some real success in life but it can be short-lived or fluctuating until the time that you have eked out some reasonable compromise between your inner drives and your mechanisms and techniques for accomplishing your goals. When you have difficulty mastering sufficient physical vitality or enthusiasm for a goal you have chosen, it is time to get to the roots of the inner conflict that is stealing your energy.

SUN OPPOSITION YOUR MOON

Dynamic tension exists between energy and goals. You have difficulty accomplishing your objectives in life because of basic conflicts you have between your ego drives and your emotional needs. You will tend to live out one directly and to project the other onto someone else in your life.

SUN SEMI-SEXTILE VENUS

You have a charm, a beauty and an inclination to do good. You need to make sure that you don't become lazy and give up striving for the good after suffering some disappointments in life. The desire to nurture and your fascination with your own receptive qualities can put you in touch with many different types of people in life. Learn discrimination and your life is much more pleasant.

SUN CONJUNCT URANUS

You are freedom-loving. You are original and independent. You look for unusual manners of expression and are drawn to experiences that bring out your inventiveness. When you act, you do so quickly, engaging your whole being. You have a deep willfulness and are capable of holding onto a point of view or a line of action against the odds, common sense, and logic; you may change your mind or direction in life, but nobody else will change it for you. When you do make a change you do so abruptly and there can be great upheaval in your life.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You see how the world in general and your life in particular could be better through vision of a higher truth. You have creative ability. This skill is frequently used in blending together people and situations to find imaginative solutions to difficulties. You believe in people and in life deeply and will suffer at times because less idealistic souls will take advantage of your good will. Nonetheless, you are a force for good. Because you anticipate and expect exemplary behavior from others, it is easier for people to be their better selves around you.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR NEPTUNE

You are imaginative, creative, and sensitive to the world and to other people. You feel the world can be a better place and your vision can be sustained by your actions because you are good at blending your mental and emotional nature. You have an idealistic and artistic picture of yourself and this world. This gives your personality a quiet charm.

SUN CONJUNCT PLUTO

You have a powerful will and a dogmatic determination to get to your goal. There is a lonely quality to you that emerges from a self-imposed insulation (or isolation). Few people ever really get to know you in a very personal way. Still you find this life very productive. You keep approaching your selected goals whether it takes years, decades or even millenniums. Even you don't see how committed you are to the long-range goals until you carefully evaluate the path of decision-making in your life. There is a pioneering and self-confident aura about you that works itself out through self-reform.

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 PISCES

You are a died-in-the-wool sentimentalist. Your imagination can run away with the whole personality. You need grounding through the feelings or you may fall into a negative escapism. You are sociable and very solicitous of others. People like you for you are kind. But, you are so open to suggestion and psychically receptive to others' needs that you can lose yourself and end up dreaming other people's dreams. When you find yourself becoming lazy or drinking a lot or daydreaming more than is healthy, get yourself a daily routine of meditation and mind-training which will refocus the visualizing property in you. Then, your good intentions for others, society, God and the universe will have a tangible grounding.

Moon in 12th house

You tend to be very impressionable and this can make you gloomy. Stability comes through synthesis. The need for self-understanding can force you to gather lots of experience. You may appear as an unrealistic dreamer to people who do not know you very well. People who are close to you see the long distance planning and the concern that you go through. You work best if you are able to get blocks of time by yourself on a regular basis.

Moon in 12th house Unafflicted

A powerful spiritual ideal inside of you will have to come out and manifest in some aspect of your day-to-day life. This longing for the transcendent life strengthens as you get older. You have the ability to bond with others over practical issues of home, family, and career. You instinctively know when to withdraw.

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 MARS

You are an ardent lover and an enthusiastic lover of life. You are brave and prepared to fight for a point of view. Your self-assertiveness and assertion can thrust you into a position of emotional leadership. You are a builder and a doer.

MOON TRINE YOUR MARS

Strong, driving passions move you toward your goals. You have very directed habits leading you forward in life. Your emotions are so focused toward what you want that you let personal happiness depend on accomplishment.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You get great ideas but have a tendency to act on a subject with brilliant insight and partial knowledge. The accuracy of your specific perceptions successfully insulates you from needed correction by others. When you become mentally defensive you fall into a pattern of emotional instability; that encourages you to promote less than your best ideas merely to be different. You can fall into a negative spiral of being a social outcast and an iconoclast. This is avoidable through finding the part of yourself that is genuinely interested in the welfare of humanity. As you get older, your emotional life becomes more stable as a direct result of (and in direct proportion to) your ability to express empathy for people in your daily life. Big abstractions have to be practiced to have meaning.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR URANUS

You are locked into a pattern of emotional turmoil; it is easy to blame others and to feel victimized by others' erratic behavior, selfishness, or irresponsibility. A bigger picture of yourself and life stabilizes your habits and makes life more fun. Self acceptance is the key.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You have a deep and abiding connection with music and art. When you are upset or feeling unbalanced; you can gain a sense of peace through music, meditation, and isolation. You are a sensitive and creative soul. As long as you are not too passive, your life has the good fortune to unfold along the path of least resistance. (Becoming too passive can mean stagnation). You are idealistic and believe the best about people. This is good and helps people, but remember to concentrate on people as they are, and not just what they might become. A lofty potential is always there but might not ever manifest.

MOON TRINE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your senses become a deep road to pleasure and your idealistic mannerisms and proposals win you an audience which you inspire. You are very sensitive and need time alone, in quiet surroundings, in order to be balanced. You have a deep appreciation for music and are moved emotionally by its color, rhythm and timbre.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You easily get so emotionally "locked up" that it becomes difficult to alter or arrest a pattern once it has begun. You can suffer a lot by cutting yourself off from others. You may end a relationship that you desperately want if you feel the other person may reject you or abandon you sometime in the future. You demand a loyalty from others that isn't only unrealistic, but is also something you are incapable of or unwilling to give to others yourself. Further, you are capable of forming compulsive attachments where you hang onto a relationship long after the other person has left you emotionally or even physically. In either of these cases, clearly you have to come to terms with the issue of power and control. Don't be afraid of not being in control. Achieve self-control, understand your own emotions and your life becomes much easier. You might explore your relationship with your mother as it had a much deeper effect on you than for most people. You have ability to work with large figures and with money and finance. You are able to conceptualize many different items of experience simultaneously. If your emotions don't get in your way, you become a leader in some realm.

MOON OPPOSITION YOUR PLUTO

Emotional standoffs block your growth. Rational compromise stops addictive and self-defeating behavior. It takes tremendous self insight to see that the things that bother you most about others are qualities of your own being. Real change in your emotional nature is not only possible but inevitable. Don't ever lose hope or indulge in thoughts of failure or guilt. Real release of old emotional habits brings instant transformation.

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 LIBRA

Your mind is on a quest for perfection, harmony and beauty. You are rational and fond of comparison. You look for justice. You want the right answer, the right inflection and the right emphasis. When you speak, others will see you are incredibly polished and persuasive. Be careful you don't end up as some oily, back-bending huckster bent on selling through flattery. Have a position of your own and assert it up front, as diplomatically as possible. When circumstances aren't to your liking, you make premeditated adjustments for the effect. They can be superficial or even insincere. You are easily led astray because your mind is open to all points of view. Translate this into a higher intuition; then, your open, balanced fair-mindedness wins you respect from others and many good friends.

Mercury in 7th house

You are attracted to people who you feel are interested in life and who are good conversationalists. You feel comfortable relating with those you have a past history with. Your own thoughts become clearer through dialogue.

Mercury in 7th house Afflicted

Others may offer advice which misses the subtleties of your circumstances. Avoid being swayed from a course of action by casual input from others. Make sure when you speak that others understand you.

MERCURY SEMI-SQUARE VENUS

You have a real interest in communicating your thoughts to others; you have a pleasing manner of expression. However, you will occasionally hurt your cause by telling people what you think they want to hear rather than what you really believe. Try to be consistent in thought and speech. You will experience more stress in the short run but greater peace of mind.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

At a core level you don't think well enough about yourself. It may appear that you do on the surface, but the truth of the matter is your pessimism and complaining comes from a fear that life will not give you what you want. Learn to work smarter and not just harder. You see the virtue in discipline and often force yourself to do things you feel are good for you. In turn, you may resent others that don't work as hard. It is more difficult for you to get where you are going because you are always having to compromise between what you would like to do and what you feel is required. This conflict between desires and feelings of obligation is often the source of worry, stress, and wasted energy. For all this, you excel in any area that requires close, careful judgment.

MERCURY OPPOSITION YOUR SATURN

Your feelings of defensiveness come from a perception that others don't hear you and don't understand you. Being disciplined, orderly, and patient brings consistent stable progress on any project; but, you need to overcome the feeling that the world is your enemy.

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 LEO

You are an openhearted lover. You are creative and demonstrative. You are a lover of pleasure and luxury and want people to think well of you. You have a flair for the dramatic. You inspire others to act because they sense the genuine wholehearted approach in you, which is lurking behind your continuous pose. You seek inner harmony through some dramatic or creative self-expression. When you warm up to someone, the relationship becomes an outlet for the artist in you. You are very generous and need to be more discriminating as to where to give and when. A noblesse oblige attitude and outlook colors the way you pour out love, affection, and material help onto others.

Venus in 6th house

You make your work circumstances pleasant and you generally find your daily routines pleasant. Your general health picture may not be particularly strong. Personal accomplishment in life comes through cooperation and sharing. You are capable of this but may need to remind yourself every so often to let others become involved in your work.

Venus in 6th house Afflicted

You may cause yourself trouble by overlooking important factors in your environment which are essential to everything running smoothly in your life. Avoid any pretense that everything is fine when you can see real difficulties around you. Only by dealing with trouble are you able to find real peace of mind and personal satisfaction.

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 CONJUNCT JUPITER

You have an inherent belief that the good in life is coming to you and generally it does. You are religious by nature and idealistic in your outlook. You have lavish taste and will spend freely on a good time or on your friends. Social occasions seem to sprout from your normal activities. Even routine happenings have a way of becoming events.

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 SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR SATURN

Emotional anguish makes your life inwardly stormy and outwardly very reserved. As you get ultra-specific as to what you are really feeling toward others, your own confusing and inner tension lifts. Stable reliable friends can easily be your emotional bedrock in life.

VENUS IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are easily led by your feelings. You are an idealist and a sensitive soul that is having a tough time getting your values to manifest. People take advantage of you at times because you empathize with others' pain. You have artistic talent but this is not meant to be a life as an artist. Consequently, you will have difficulties in youth getting reinforced for your aesthetic efforts. Later in life you will be a patron of the arts. Your artistic sentiments will come out and into full bloom in the realm of people. It takes you a long time to discover who is reliable and who isn't because you would rather believe in the inherent goodness of each person. You somehow expect that every person will have the same value system and perspective as you.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

You get fooled by others easily as you are naive and a dreamer. Although you wish the best of yourself and of life, you get off on the wrong foot at the practical level. You have artistic talent but it doesn't develop along expressive lines. First, your artistic inclinations direct you toward understanding people. When you are successful here your underlying self expression finds some aesthetic manifestation.

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.

MARS IN SAGITTARIUS

You desire independence. You are impulsive and optimistic and know how to turn every circumstance into some opportunity to further your cause. Your methods for going after what you want is to work hard periodically but your energy, while strong, is intermittent. You are a natural gambler and adventurer and take a sporting attitude toward difficult circumstances. Although you are argumentative at times, others admire the fact that you aspire to higher things in life. If you choose goals that are too distant, you run out of energy trying to get to them and fall back into wasting time wallowing in a defensive self-righteousness. Strive for consistency and stability. Any goal is obtainable, even independence, if you are willing to keep going towards it.

Mars in 8th house

You can be very devotional. You have a strong interest in sex and close emotional sharing. Self-transcendence and self-transformation are important to you.

Mars in 8th house Unafflicted

MARS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You know how to get to your goals in life by steady, patient, and persistent progress. You have good, practical overviews of the final result of your efforts. You are good at planning a strategy and sticking to it. You build your projects and your life with bedrock security in mind, with as little risk as possible. Discipline, patience, hard work, and the blessing of good judgment work together to form a picture that looks like "luck" to others.

MARS TRINE YOUR SATURN

You are an excellent judge of your limits and create much goodness for yourself by appreciation for what is appropriate socially and for what is permanent in life. You express yourself in a way that helps your long term projects manifest.

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 aspect patterns to Jupiter show the direct network of good and administrative power in your life.

JUPITER IN LEO

You are drawn toward anything that gives you expression because your primary value is to display what you find in yourself. You create a dramatic effect in life through personal display and amplification. You have a natural inherent pride in all you do. You are loyal to ideas, ideals, and beliefs as well as people. A powerful sense of self colors the way you express your compassion to the world. You are universal in outlook and naturally attracted to a big picture of life in general and of your life in particular. You are generous because you believe you should share what you have. Your feeling is always that you have so much. Since you are optimistic, you see opportunity where others only see limits. There is an expansive and pervasive quality to the way you meet life. You create much in life but need to be on guard against vanity and extravagance; both can happen automatically, and both cause you much trouble.

Jupiter in 6th house

You are a very resourceful worker and can make a lot happen in relatively little time. You can be uncompromisingly disciplined when you see the need for it. Overdoing or overindulgence can be the source of health frustrations. You may have to work at learning moderation.

Jupiter in 6th house Afflicted

The feeling of accomplishment and self-worth may actually stop you from working up to your potential. Try to be honest with yourself as to what can be successfully left for someone else and what you must do yourself. Remember you are no better and no worse than anyone else.

JUPITER IN ASPECT TO VENUS

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.

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You suffer because you remember your failures more than your successes and consequently have a hard time developing a picture of yourself as a winner. In this sense you were born old. However, this same quality engenders a childish quality in you that tends to look for the "quick fix". Hard work and consistency of effort brings success for you just like it does for everyone else. Yes, you need some luck or some breaks, but these come from perspective, vision or aim in life. Work to see yourself as deserving good things in life, then be willing to put forth honest effort.

JUPITER SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR SATURN

Rapid and far reaching adjustments are necessary in order to materialize your vision of life. Being stubborn or locked into a picture of how things will be or should be will block your ability to see and take advantage of opportunity. Willingness to adjust and being spontaneous helps you make changes in life that support growth and development of your values.

JUPITER IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You feel lucky and that gets you into trouble. You get overextended and into financial hot water before you know what has happened. Being gullible and naive, you suffer through believing in your own fantasies. Because you are kind and sympathetic, you go out of your way to help others. But here you can suffer through poor judgment as to what will be of real and lasting help. The way out of this confusion is not to be less idealistic or less sympathetic, but instead to be more long-term in your vision. Ask yourself what will be important 10 years from now in your immediate considerations. Taking the long view of yourself and of life is an acid test for moment to moment decisions.

JUPITER SQUARE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your values and beliefs are in conflict with your vision of truth. You get confused as to what your direction should be. Your biggest problem can be having unrealistic expectations. You may be lazy and think that the good things you dream about will just come to you with no effort. Your faith in life, as misdirected as it is at times, will certainly sustain you, and it certain does aid you in attracting the good things that the world and other people have to offer.

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 ARIES

You have a fear of being stopped or opposed. Your will is strong and you strike out in a way to avoid this situation. Your way of interaction often lends itself to misunderstanding. Your manner of being is so self-justifying and so retiring you will probably have to work hard at developing rhythm, cadence, and self-reliance. Your timing is often quite bad. This is improved when you develop a better sense of your own abilities and depersonalize experiences somewhat.

Saturn in 1st house

The world is a serious place for you. You take on responsibility as a natural way of getting by. Your friends see you as someone who is willing to cope with any situation.

Saturn in 1st house Unafflicted

Hard work bring results. Your life is good because you learned to be self-reliant at an early age. You get what you work for in life. You learn what works and create abundance by replicating it.

SATURN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR NEPTUNE

You are engaged in one of life's deep struggles. Your higher and lower selves fight for control of your actions. You are not generally able to secure steady forward motion along a progressive path until you willfully and consciously renounce everything that gets in the way of your highest ideal. This is not easy and will require many attempts before success comes about. Personal progress is sure though, as soon as you see your higher ideals as a direct extension of universal principles to advance for the entire society.

SATURN SESQUIQUADRATE YOUR NEPTUNE

Fear of responsibility and a feeling of being trapped can easily lead you into poor "road of life" decisions. When this has happened you end up feeling quite alone. Reconnecting with regular society means taking one step at a time to do the most responsible things and avoiding involvement with people who are not of good solid character or who encourage you to escape your obligations rather than meeting them.

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 VIRGO

URANUS SEXTILE YOUR NEPTUNE

Your underlying faith in some higher all encompassing truth gives you balance and a belief in your own ability to achieve personal freedom some day. Further, you are quite tolerant of many other approaches to change other than your own. You distrust back sliding, indecision, and lack of motion.

URANUS CONJUNCT PLUTO

You have a compulsive and unconscious desire to change. There is a revolutionary quality to the way you go about bringing change in life. Years can go by relatively peacefully and then all of a sudden there is an explosion in your life. When the dust settles all goes well again but you and your world are never the same. Real change is always fundamental.

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 SCORPIO

You have powerful and unconscious impulses for sensation. You wish most of all to keep a social ideal alive through emotional intensity. You struggle to work out your secret desires.

Neptune in 8th house

You have some interest in large-scale social institutions, insurance and government agencies. You are very sensitive and if you are able to use this quality in a positive way you will get involved in digging down to the foundations of culture. This may express itself as an interest in some aspect of the past.

Neptune in 8th house Unafflicted

You are a good and thoughtful investor, taking other people's needs into consideration. You are also a good investigator and will perhaps have some interest in the occult.

NEPTUNE SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

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.

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 VIRGO

At best, you have critical powers to discriminate between that which works and that which doesn't. There is a striving for perfection at the core of your being that can narrow your horizons so far that you focus too much on basic issues connected with your own life. At worst, you are so critical that you slow down everyone's effectiveness. Patience and hard work are required in order to complete your personal transformations.

Pluto in 6th house

You are an intense and very private worker. You take your given tasks in life very seriously. Work is more important to you than play and you can become obsessive when you are looking for a solution to a problem.

Pluto in 6th house Unafflicted

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 PARALLEL AND CONTRAPARALLEL.

You are very resourceful. You always find a deep inner strength with which to take some steps forward. When the going is difficult, you are still able to build some type of victory or personal reward on anything that happens in your life. You have a passive ability to endure and wait. You have an active talent for planning. Your keyword is Reorganization.

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.

Well-Aspected Mars.

Your energy and enthusiasm naturally go into productive channels. You are attracted to experiences that give you the opportunity to act. You can usually get what you want when you are prepared to put forth the effort.

Mars in the Eighth House.

You have a natural attraction to life's mysteries and you grow in life by planting your seeds, then being patient and waiting for the harvest. Digging into your own nature and being self observant brings you more energy and pure applications.

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 Mercury

You suffer because you draw the wrong conclusions from your perceptions. There are several ways of breaking out of a negative picture. You can ask other people's advice as to your present course of action in life, you can strive to be more empirical in your observations, and you can look for a consistent pattern in your past actions. Through expanding your perceptions, you can break out of a self-limiting mental bubble.

Afflicted Venus

You sell yourself short in love. You have great difficulty getting your true emotional intentions to the surface and self-expression can be awkward, overly self-conscious, or ineffective in achieving your heart's desire. The key to personal development in love and interpersonal expression lays in setting your emotional priorities. This leads to less conflict and to the experience of more satisfaction.

Afflicted Jupiter

Your values are lopsided so your energy and judgment is off. Overcoming pride, waste and unrealistic expectations creates the pathway to a more stable value system. Your life improves when you are able to corral your aberrant need to feel that you "belong". Things improve when you are able to establish a self picture based on your own approval rather than public acceptance.

Venus in the Sixth House

You are good at resolving difficulties in love relationships by examining the details in the other person's life. It is difficult for you to change the quality of your own self expression in relationships. This is what is required though, if anything fundamental is to change.

Jupiter in the Sixth House

You throw yourself into action without seeing the big picture. Often, you end up putting energy into a situation that cannot work out as favorably as you wish or expect. Check your enthusiasm until you see your future picture of yourself clearly enough that you can envision how it connects with your present course of action.

Saturn in Aries

You have difficulty in self-expression. You accomplish more when you stop trying to avoid your real obligations and just execute them. You appear to others as if you have a "chip on your shoulder". Get rid of your fear of others and relationships improve.

Saturn in the First House

You have to overcome the feeling of being responsible for everything that happens to you or happens in your life. This tendency zaps your energy and makes you less effective in clearing up your real responsibilities.

Pluto in Virgo

You suffer in the process of self-transformation because you have difficulty in making the decision to change yourself rather than changing circumstances in your life. Get more basic, change your attitudes and habits and life becomes much lighter.

Pluto in the Sixth House

You are very, very insightful into what isn't working in someone else's life. It takes a deep and probing courage into your own habits for you to really see that the world only becomes a better place if you become a better person. You are fully capable of achieving this if you truly see its importance.

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 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.

Sun Semi-Sextile Venus

The quest for beauty can lead you away from a path of personal development. This is because the object of your search in life seems to you to be substantially different from what you find as your own inner resource. Through self observation you come to realize that it is the beauty in you that perceives the beauty in the world. True progress for you can be won through achieving a balance between your own inner drives and what you see in other people that you judge as significantly different from what you find in yourself.

Sun in Growth Aspect to Jupiter

You have an optimistic and formal side of your personality that surfaces only slowly. You experience frustration because you can perceive more than you can do. Learning to work with your own limits of endurance without compromising your values is your method of growth.

Sun Semi-Sextile Jupiter

Time and again you have to start projects over because you tend to confuse your priorities and build beyond your foundations. Once timing and procedures are learned your natural optimism emerges in a way that is constructive. You suffer some difficulties when your projects, while performing well in one environment, do not work so easily or directly when translated to a larger scale or a new context. Your belief in life serves you well when it is tempered with patience and good prioritizing.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Venus

The receptive and gentle side of your personality is always looking for an appropriate expression. You learn by trial and error how to relate your sensitivity to others without invoking disappointment or rejection from them. Learning how to receive what others give you freely requires work on your behalf.

Moon Quincunx Venus

The frustration you experience in life often comes because you get what you ask for from other people (and life in general). Unfortunately, what you ask for isn't what you want. Partly, you are slowly learning better communication skills, and partly you are learning to understand your own deeper cravings as they are. You see the unacknowledged and undigested parts of your sensitivity and creativity present in others, but, these are really projections that you have to own within your self if you are to change for the better.

Moon in Growth Aspect to Jupiter

You live with a kind of emotional self validation that requires very little from life or others in order to sustain itself. This has both positive and negative aspects to it. On one hand you are able to maintain your inner equilibrium regardless of circumstances. On the other hand you do avoid emotionally charged situations by self glorifying compensation and by ignoring facts that make your self picture appear in a bad light. Being honest with yourself while maintaining a lighthearted and fun loving demeanor is the way of growth and development.

Moon Quincunx Jupiter

To really understand others and life itself, you need to allow others to know you. You always "land on your feet" but often so far away from where you expected or where you said you will be, that you confuse others. Practice being more reliable; then, you will understand yourself, others and life all at once. Your optimism needs focus and to be harnessed to specific projects.

Venus in Growth Aspect to Uranus

Erratic expression of the loving side of your nature makes it hard for you to be very close to others, but, it does supply you with interesting and exciting moments of interaction. First, you learn to see the periodic disturbances of your routines as part of the enjoyable fabric of your life. Next, you learn that the new information presented to you through the occasional disruptions as an unconscious method for you to know yourself and see the higher possibilities in your own love nature.

Venus Semi-Sextile Uranus

In your enthusiasm to add more sparkle to your expression of love and beauty in life you alienate people, lose your audience and destroy the goodness and continuity of your everyday relationships. Personal growth comes as you learn how to preserve what you have without ossifying it. Innovation within known guidelines stops you from "throwing away the baby with the bath water".

Jupiter in Growth aspect to Uranus

Learning how to turn your abrupt bursts of enthusiasm to your benefit becomes a mechanism for growth. There is an inner belief that you can obtain freedom and personal satisfaction in life by throwing yourself into action quickly. This is correct but you will have to work on the techniques of self expression and substance of your life goals in order to get the higher side of this aspect of your nature to function correctly.

Jupiter semi-sextile Uranus

Your values will change several time in life. You will work hard to expand your aims to be inclusive of your long range ultimate beliefs. To do this is to start developing crossovers to a more accurate way of addressing the larger arena of our society.

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 Saturn

There is a deep melancholy aspect to your personality that will tend to color all that you do in life. You have great capacity for careful and very exacting work. There is a definite need to pay close attention to the happenings in life so that you are able to see what you do that causes difficulties and hard feelings. Patience, discipline and positive intentions are necessary to overcome feelings of distrust for life.

Sun Parallel Uranus

You are not content with an ordinary life. Something in you is always "stirring the pot" so to speak. You believe that life can be better and you will do something to get this point across to others while also doing something to tangibly improve your own circumstances. Sometimes you need to learn to leave "well enough alone " as your constant fussing can create difficulties. Still, your originality and spontaneousness gives color and accomplishment to your life.

Sun Parallel Ascendant

You possess a certain vibrancy that others find attractive. You like to put your whole heart into whatever you do. In the long run your winning attitude and positive approach to life brings you prominence, by endurance if nothing else.

Mars Parallel Midheaven

You have a strong need to express your deepest wishes through what you do in the world. This can give your career or outer expression in life a demanding quality, which can make it harder for you than most to answer to another as some judge or authority. Because of this, you wander some until you have the freedom to do things your own way.

Saturn Parallel Ascendant

A gloomy outlook can color your approach to any project. It takes a good deal of work on yourself to let your natural conservative tendencies find a wholesome expression. When you are very disciplined and comfortable with a cautious and easy going way about your life, you are rewarded many times over. Your timing can be off with any project if fear stops you from moving forward or anxiety or excitement get you moving quicker than the project can sustain. Even tempered momentum coupled with an "easy does it" attitude, is the way to win in most situations.

Moon Contra-Parallel Uranus

If you have consistency in your focus and actions in life (and this is a big if) then you have the facility to help others improve their method of relating emotionally. You have a propensity for living in an exciting, adventuresome, and creative vision of the world.

Mercury Contra-Parallel Venus

You have an appreciation of beauty and a natural feeling for beautiful expression. You may have to work toward getting the natural feeling of what others expect from you in order to convey your creativity in a manner which is socially useful or for that matter constructive in your personal relationships. Once this is accomplished your ability to create beauty flourishes.

Neptune Contra-Parallel Pluto

A formidable battle is waging in your unconscious over the correct path in life to fulfill your destiny. You wish to live out your highest aspirations yet how to do this? The pull into group situations and collective decision making can run counter to your desire for deep and meaningful personal satisfaction. As your relationship pattern gets clearer and clearer, you are able to connect with the most progressive and useful manifestations of your higher vision.

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 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 Aries

You grow stronger through the experience of self assertion. You are diplomatic but may suffer from being too accommodating. Be honest with yourself. Is your desire to please based on some personal weakness (i.e. fear of others, lack of commitment, laziness, lack of self esteem, etc., etc.)? If this is the case, learn to express your real self without creating any disharmony. Translate your initial impressions directly into action. Postponement can mean procrastination. The thoughts, needs, opinions and attitudes of others may be too great an influence in your life. Develop your own opinions and attitudes and hold fast to your truth regardless of the consequences. Remember the truth always creates harmony in the world. Whether others respond positively or not, your truth is what must come out of you, regardless of whether or not it seems to create harmony or not.

North Node of the Moon in Aries and in the First House

You need to be physically more assertive. Be "plain-spoken" with everyone you come into contact with. Be self-reliant! Find strength in yourself. Relationships are great and they come naturally to you, but togetherness for its own sake creates pretense and mediocrity. You have real desires, some of them you will need to alter, but you can't do any real transforming until you honestly acknowledge what is real for you, what you want, what you are after. Remember, acceptance by others (and consequently all relationships) means very little unless you are acting out of your true self. Waiting for others to act before deciding what you are doing can be an annoying habit. Others like you but they only trust you when you are in compliance with your own higher direction. Diplomacy is a tool, not an end in itself.
