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 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.

No Quadrant Emphasis

You tend to diversify your energy and attention to several different areas of life. You may have difficulties in achieving your goals in life until you order your priorities. You can be a master at balancing many different aspects of life when you learn to use your time wisely. Avoid letting your mind dwell on projects you are not immediately engaged in. Keep your attention in the here and now and your life becomes much simpler.

      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 an abundance of earth in your chart showing that you are a cautious and thorough person. You build material security in life. If, for any reason, this isn't happening you feel miserable. This can point to a problem of valuing the wrong things in life and chasing empty dreams. Ask yourself how much you really need and let it go at that. You can be an earnest and hard working person if over-acquisitiveness doesn't blind you.

Air

You have just 20% of your chart in the air element. You have a magic blend in the air element. You have an ever-active intellect. Your eye is always looking, your mind is always attempting to grasp more and more information. You don't feel confident in what you know. This lack of confidence prompts you to keep on task with the learning process. You never relax on the subject of gathering new information. In the long run, you become quite scholarly in life, out-performing most others in the mental realm.

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

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-decendant) 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.

AQUARIUS RISING

You have a striking and unusual personality and appearance. You express a human and humanistic quality that others admire. You have a charm and magnetism that affects others in a positive way. You seek opportunities to interact with others in a wholesome and elevating way. You are so interested in people, ideas and projects that others seldom recognize how glued in you are to a preselected agenda. Because you are interested in everything and have wide humanitarian qualities and concerns, people often underestimate your tenacity. Actually you are incredibly vigilant and loyal. Once you have selected a person or project in life, you can persevere regardless of the cost. You have a knack for doing the unexpected. You are so creative and original others never really know what to expect. Others are often attracted to your beauty.

Sun Trine the Ascendant

You are very creative and project a powerful sense of yourself into everything that you do. People see you as someone who can and will do what you say you will do. You carry the air of authority with you. People like you because you seem more real to them, more alive to them than most people. This makes your life easier and more successful than most. You are more comfortable with yourself than most people are and this quality shows.  You have an easier time than most people in putting your positive attributes together in one place and expressing them.

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

It is hard for you to recognize what you do that provokes others. People seem irritated with your assertions. You see your observations as merely being in touch with what is real, whereas they see you as being unnecessarily critical. Your ability to invest in a project and stay with it until it is completed makes your analytic powers useful and endearing to some. Still, there are times when you seem to excite others' aggressions without doing very much. As you get a better understanding of your own desire nature, your relationships improve.

Uranus Opposition the Ascendant and in the 7th House and unafflicted.

You look for excitement and freedom in others. Because you like change, commitment is difficult for you. However this is

possible when you have a great deal of variety and openness built into the foundation of the relationship. When you have a committed relationship you are inevitably involved with a unique and creative individual that likes your desire for variety. You are happiest when you are enjoying people for themselves, enjoying the creative spirit.

           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.

SAGITTARIUS MIDHEAVEN

You are idealistic and changeable in your orientation toward your work. You look for the biggest possible area to operate in. This quality may lead you to altering your direction many times. Your loyalty tends to be for an ideal rather than to a specific person or circumstance.

Sun Opposite Midheaven and in the 4th House and unafflicted.

You come to your own in career. People recognize your goodness even though it is slower to manifest than expected. You have some inner resistance to other people's authority in your life. Early flickers of promise eventually bear fruit as your sense of security grows stronger with age.

Moon Sesquiquadrate Midheaven

The general public will often not understand your needs and how you communicate. Your mind and emotions become intertwined with each other and it is difficult for you to recognize how prejudiced your thinking can be. Early life experiences can create a foundation for understanding but it also has left you with unrealistic preconceptions as to what life can give. Overcoming the past helps you come before the public.

Mercury Quincunx the Midheaven

The plans that you make may come to nothing many times, but, this is not bad if every time you stumble, you learn something about yourself. The world is a fascinating place for you and you can be prompted to learn about many subjects. Success is found in continuity and depth as well as diversity. Learning to keep fixed on the goals you have chosen, while having no particular commitment to the method for its achievement, brings you to your quickest method of accomplishment.

Mars Trine Midheaven

You have a large amount of extra energy to put into your career. You execute your plans swiftly. You are good at being able to spot an opportunity and to capitalize on it. You work well by yourself or in a position of leadership and generally, you find your niche.

Saturn Semi-Square Midheaven

Your difficulty with authority puts you in an uncomfortable position. On one hand, you don't like taking responsibility for the actions of others around you and don't want to be burdened by responsibilities for groups. Yet, you don't like the loss of control that comes from following decisions made by others who assume a position of authority. This makes participation in groups problematic. As you get clearer in your method for setting your personal boundaries you are able to join groups without feeling loss of self. Life gets easier when you plan your time realistically and overcome fears surrounding authority and responsibility.

      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.

Moon Conjunct Venus

Think of Sections III. THE MOON - Your personal life,and V. VENUS -Your love nature, as a single unit. This Conjunction colors your unconscious habits and your basic attitude toward life. This is an extremely important ingredient of your identity and represents a primary attribute of your personality.

Mars Conjunct Uranus

Think of Sections VI. MARS - Your energy, and IX. URANUS - Your search for freedom, as a single unit. This conjunction shows your spontaneous and creative qualities. This is a central theme of your nature.

Jupiter Conjunct Saturn

Think of Sections VII. JUPITER - Your values, and VIII. SATURN -Your obligations, as a single operating principal. This Conjunction shows your drive for social involvement and represents a consistent and special focus 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 GEMINI

You are versatile and adaptable. Usually, you have fifty projects going, all at the same time. You are interested in everything, but this makes it very difficult to do anything in particular very well. You love to relate. You build your day and your life around interactions with people, ideas and events. You are a rapid learner and a good communicator. Often, your learning is on the surface and your communication is just imitative, but you can reason and are not afraid of innovation. Try to be more consistent in your approach to life. When you are well organized, you accomplish. When you develop sympathy for others, your relationships become more stable.

Sun in 4th house

You plan for the "long run" as part of your basic strategy in life. Your life improves with age because your real personality emerges more and more as you get older. You are interested in having your basic attachments and emotional interests taken care of before focusing your attention on anything else. Once this foundation is established you put your energy into satisfying your need for worldly fulfillment. Because you expect life to improve it generally does.

Sun in 4th house Unafflicted

A powerful sense of self-confidence sustains and colors all of your activities. How far you go in life is determined by other factors but you build your edifice brick by brick. You are cautious, temperamental and conservative in your undertakings. Commitments are taken seriously and generally seen through to a harmonious conclusion.

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 SEMI-SQUARE YOUR MOON

Being self-reliant is more important for you than for most people. Only with great effort and some difficulty do you manage to communicate your aims and intentions to others. Doing projects on your own is not only easiest, it is often your mechanism for learning compromise and coming to terms with your own inner conflicts. In groups, your own conflicts sometimes get projected onto others.

SUN SEMI-SQUARE VENUS

You have a pleasant appearance and know how to get along with others. You may find yourself locked into a situation where you can see more than you can materialize. The difficulty here is that your goals move forward when you do, so they always stay out in front of you and you never seem to get where you are going. A self-dissatisfaction can always be hanging in the air. Thinking more of others and less of yourself is one of the few things that breaks through the hard crust of ignorance. Concentrating on the concerns of others punctures the myth of isolation which is the real cause of your false sense of self-dissatisfaction. You are prone to petty vanities and extravagant spending when you are feeling defeated. You can avoid this pitfall by learning genuine self acceptance. Once learned, you become a real joy to be around.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR MARS

You are full of energy. When you get excited about a project you are very enthusiastic and quick to act on a plan. Your sense of right and wrong translate into action. You are brave, willing to "stand up for what you see as right".

SUN SEXTILE YOUR MARS

Energetic, enthusiastic, (and at times) very combative, you have a way of getting to your goal. You enjoy the contest of others trying to stop you. Your creative energies flow very strong when you are opposed.

SUN IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You are always looking for a better way of being. You have keen perception for the untried and can envision things that might be, even though they do not yet exist. You have a sense for the dramatic and can express a new idea as if it was commonplace and

common sense. You are unique and will often play an inspirational role in others' lives. You are prone to sudden romantic attachments as you recognize the uniqueness of others.

SUN SEXTILE YOUR URANUS

You have an original and unique outlook on life - seeing ways and means lost on less adventuresome souls. You can be a good team player because you view life from a creative and liberal standpoint; believing that new, unusual, and unique happenings can occur. This spontaneity gives your personality color, as well as leading you to conclusion that are significantly different than ordinary logic would have us anticipate. Your personality has a good deal of sparkle.

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 TAURUS

You have a sense of inner satisfaction that is both your strength and your weakness. On one hand, you know how to be persistent, to feel contented and to take the sensuous joy in the goodness of life. On the other hand, you may have real difficulty getting going when your circumstances require change. You may have some talent for the arts and you certainly love the creation of beauty. Your feelings run deep and your instincts and reactions to life are very colored by your past experiences.

Moon in 2nd house

You have an emotional need to know that the bills are paid. You have some fears connected with lack and you will attempt to create some material security as a guard against worry. Your natural instinctive pattern in life tends to be along cautious, conservative lines.

Moon in 2nd house Unafflicted

Money and material possessions come and go in life but somehow you always manage to have a "nest egg" tucked away. Your attachment to the past can manifest best through your ability to remember the positive qualities of others.

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 CONJUNCT VENUS

You are gentle, kind, pliable and pleasant. You are friendly and affectionate. People generally like you. You have a pleasure-loving side of your personality that can easily become self-indulgent. This is generally not a problem as long as you stay focused on the outside world, the public and other people. Strive to stay in a cheerful and "upbeat" mode.

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 SQUARE YOUR JUPITER

Overindulgence and too much of the good life can leave you ill, overweight and without money. Your generosity and jolly nature are liked and admired by others and you always make your way in life. Your poor judgement stems more from unharnessed desires than from ignorance. But, you do have a self-righteous streak. This aspect of your personality feeds public prejudices that are backward looking and out of step with the times. Here, your need for popularity and expediency can point to a deep ignorance. You accomplish much and are very successful but unstable unless you are exceedingly disciplined and honest with yourself.

MOON IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR SATURN

You are outwardly successful in life even though you have to go through some inner pain in your personal life. Your greatest virtue is that you do learn from your mistakes. You correct your own actions and go on. Your life may have several low points while you are reorganizing after a setback. You will be hard-pressed to sort out your true responsibilities and may find the day to day planning of your time to be quite challenging.

MOON SQUARE YOUR SATURN

You can be very accomplished in your career because you have the ability to face your own mistakes honesty and without excuse. You are hard on yourself which adds to your feeling of being quite lonely. Finding emotional happiness is only possible by becoming open with people and by expecting the same from them. You want security and accomplishment in life. You can and do achieve this, but try not to let worldly success come at the expense of closeness and acceptance from others. These two values (public versus personal) get in each other's way. You can have both, but patience, understanding, and hard work are necessary. Success is built on past mistakes, analysis, and strong personal drive.

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 OPPOSITION YOUR NEPTUNE

You suffer from misperceptions and poor judgements. You can easily promise more than you can deliver to others and suffer by expecting more from them than they will give. Your life improves greatly when you act on what is present and not on what is projected.

MOON IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

A few significant dreams and a few significant people greatly impact your emotional outlook and unconscious life habits. You make absolute judgments emotionally and unconsciously as to who will affect you and who will not. You come before the general public at some time in your life, even if briefly. You have a powerful affect on others, passing along to them the deepest residue of your life experience. You develop deep emotional attachments and do not easily relinquish or alter them. You are a loyal friend once you have made a commitment.

MOON TRINE YOUR PLUTO

Compulsive and driven, you accomplish much through your ability to keep trying different approaches to a problem until it is solved. People either like you or dislike you intensely, as you are consciously focused and emotionally riveting, forcing people to choose sides. Your emotional instincts operate in a symbolic realm, conferring on you great skill in organizing patterns of thoughts as well as groups of people. You are very skillful at aligning the positive influences in your life.

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 CANCER

Your mind is colorful and very emotional. You have a retentive memory and a great imagination. You have the ability to express yourself with a good amount of emotional force. When you are hurt, worried, scared or angry, you may not reveal to others what is really on your mind. The emotional content of your mind may prejudge your perception of what other people are doing or why they are doing it. Aim to be more balanced. You adjust under unpleasant circumstances easily if nothing that you rely on for emotional security is threatened. When home, family or a love object are uncertain, you can be very disturbed. You need to develop new solutions rather than using a patchwork of old methods.

Mercury in 5th house

You are fond of self-expression. Your interest in learning and communication can come out in the arts, in teaching or a series of hobbies. You may develop several close relationships to children or domestic animals.

Mercury in 5th house Unafflicted

You are generally good with words. Others respond to your critiques and explanations. You are a natural orator, actor or teacher. You find everything interesting and thus are an enthusiastic student. Because you can see and relate to the potential in everyone to learn, you are a good teacher and instructor.

MERCURY IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR URANUS

You get great ideas, even brilliant at times. Still, others don't always hear what you are saying and this makes you angry or standoffish. Whenever this happens, recognize that you need to be thorough and practical or else the world will not see what you have found so interesting. This is not the world's fault. Slow yourself down long enough to learn how everyone else does things and you will find a natural channel for getting your ideas across. Remember, a good idea is only a good idea until it is put into practice. Get physical exercise and you might find your nervousness much easier to control.

MERCURY SEMI-SQUARE YOUR URANUS

You are very good at seeing a creative new way of implementing old ideas but have difficulty in crossing from theory to practice. Life is easier for you if you speak less about what

you are going to do (or should do) and spend time sorting out your direction in life. Your mind can be brilliant but superficial if not disciplined.

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 SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You go to the origin of a problem once you start working on it. You communicate with a quick, soft-spoken force that others pick up on magnetically. You have both broad range and depth of interest. You are very versatile and make a great problem solver. Your mind is naturally interested in security issues which can run the gambit from ordinary cops and robber stuff, to high tech computer theft, national security, and the international monetary fund. To fully use your skills you should spend time analyzing your motives. Do a thorough investigation as to your own beliefs about the meaning of life. Once you have these issues resolved you will not feel as secretive and your mental energy will be freer.

MERCURY SEXTILE YOUR PLUTO

You love a mystery and are good at solving problems because you know an answer to every question exists. Will power, stamina and insight are helpful characteristics in your nature. You motivate others to be dedicated and to persist in helping you get to your goal. At the same time you have a great capacity for self reliance. You value hard work, honesty and mutual trust. Your exchange with others is easy but you pull away if your trust is violated. Often, your goal is achieved by simplifying your approach.
 

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 TAURUS

You have a love of money, food, and possessions. You are a very physical, slow and easygoing lover. You are slow to get involved with someone but you are steadfast once you do. Although you are by nature conservative and oriented toward your home, you have a pleasant sociable side to your nature and can be quite generous. You may have problems in dealing with others because you have a tendency to evaluate people on their material worth. In order to have satisfying human relationships, you need to see people more as they are and less in terms of their worth. Money may be security but it isn't any real compensation for lack of love. You seek inner peace through your sense of touch. Art, music, and harmonious order have deep significance for you. You have an earthly beauty and a natural charm.

Venus in 2nd house

You are attracted to money and have a love of material things. You have a wholesome self-esteem and, consequently, people will flock to help you at critical moments. Others help you push your projects over the top.

Venus in 2nd house Unafflicted

Your income improves through marriage. You have a skill for creating abundance through a positive use of your resources and by knowing how to correctly utilize other people's skills. You accumulate material security by being relaxed and accepting it as it comes and through your skill at striking a meaningful compromise.

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 HARD ASPECT TO YOUR JUPITER

You have extravagant taste and certain primitive vanities that leave you vulnerable to being manipulated and used by others. You have difficulties in telling who your real friends are. Money and good times come to you but they tend to be unstable. Your romantic life is very unsettling even though very interesting. Overindulgence gets you into trouble more than once but for all your flaws people basically like you so you stay "people rich" even when you are "dollar poor". Money comes and goes in great quantities and when you learn to save you have security.

VENUS SQUARE YOUR JUPITER

You like money and adornments. You have good taste, but, sometimes it's too good. You can get into trouble through overindulgence; staying on a budget is almost impossible for you. You are vain and others manipulate you through your own bloated picture of yourself. An honest self-appraisal and some reasonable restraint is the way to guaranty that your love of life, people, and nice things don't get you into trouble. Good luck comes to you, don't throw it away.

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 judgement 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 judgements.

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 OPPOSITION YOUR NEPTUNE

Emotional conflict comes because you have unrealistic expectations of life. You are inspired by an unattainable ideal. You are creative yet often disappointed by your own inability to achieve your ideals of love and beauty. Compromise and common sense are necessary in order to get the positive expression you desire. Realize as an adult you are trying to win approval from a childhood authority figure that isn't present in your life any more.

VENUS IS IN SOFT ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO

You are powerful and magnetic. You have a magic charm for dealing with people. You have a universal love for people that is non-sectarian and non-judgemental. You are sustained by material abundance that comes from others at some time in this life and may have a sizable inheritance. When you get involved with a project you can really pour yourself into it with seemingly limitless energy. This energy evaporates when you aren't involved in a project of personal importance.

VENUS TRINE YOUR PLUTO

You have a way of hanging on to what is important in your life and getting rid of everything else. Your love is powerful but very specific. You have strong likes and dislikes and are very good at emotional discernment.
 

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 LEO

You have a desire for leadership. Your energy is totally committed to whatever your impulsive nature leads you toward. You are benevolent and your method of getting what you want is to approach it as if you already had it. You are ostentatious, loyal and authoritative. You have a command of the field but you would benefit from being more in touch with the details of any project.

Mars in 6th house

You are industrious, a hard worker who wishes to "get it right". Remember to stop at the end of the day and do something else. When you aren't working, don't think about it. Others are not driven like you are and your prodding of them may not get the results you wish.

Mars in 6th house Unafflicted

You have the ability to inspire co-workers and are tireless. You know how to keep digging until you have the facts that you feel are necessary. You are prone to nervous exhaustion if you don't plan breaks for yourself.

MARS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

You have an aspect of Mars to the Sun. This shows that you have a very strong and direct nature. Your energy and vitality are key ingredients to your self concept. This issue is taken up in some detail in the Section II. The Sun - Your Ego Structure.

MARS CONJUNCT URANUS

You truly "march to a different drummer". You have some difficulty hooking up with others emotionally because of your detachment and quirky forms of expressing your feelings. You are a humanist but not particularly personal. Your brand of romance is aimed more toward ideals than to people for their own sake. You have a strong will and are capable of putting an unbelievable amount of energy into a project. Your enthusiasm for a person, a program, or a process can be short-lived because you don't like to be tied down. You have made freedom a religion and the urge to be free has claims in its own right on your personality. When you are committed to a course of action though, you can go harder and longer than others around you. Physical exercise is important daily to ensure emotional and physical well-being and balance.
 

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 AQUARIUS

You value personal freedom and are motivated to overcome all obstacles in order to experience a higher vision of truth. You like anything that gives you creative expanse, and are naturally attracted to explore new ideas and experiment with the results in new ways. You have a need to show some originality in your work, and look for opportunity that stimulates you mentally. You have a good imagination and are fond of using it. This is not just a personal crusade as your picture of the world includes bettering other peoples' lot. You are both tolerant and humanitarian. You can become too theoretical; at times, you daydream about ideals rather than living them. However, your humanitarian instincts ground your ideas, demanding to see some sort of application for your values. Although you are not particularly interested in money, you may be in charge of other peoples' resources as an outgrowth of your higher vision of a better world through the application of scientific, socially futuristic, and humanitarian values.

Jupiter in 12th house

You have luck. It may not arrive until the last possible second, but you do have it. Time spent by yourself is always rewarding. You benefit through meditation, visualization, and quiet study.

Jupiter in 12th house Afflicted

You may be troubled by dreams that seem prophetic or a feeling that you should do something other than what you are doing. These thoughts can create great anxiety. Don't let yourself be spread so thin that success becomes almost impossible. Strive for utmost clarity in your self-appraisal.

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 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 CONJUNCT SATURN

You have a conservative streak in you that is seeking the lowest common denominator. You get to your goal in life and accomplish much by slow, tenacious effort. Your life really takes off between the ages of 27 and 36. It is during this time that you "find yourself". Your success is directly linked to the success of the culture. You rise and fall with the fortunes of everyone else. Seeing this principle in operation, perhaps you can pace yourself so that you don't waste time and energy trying to push your own life forward faster than the country or the social order can assimilate it.

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 judgement 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 CAPRICORN

You are afraid of not getting what you have coming. You are ambitious but have a sense of personal integrity. You are always striving for self control and try to channel your energy most productively. You are willing to start at the bottom and work your way up. You keep striving and eventually get the recognition that you long for. As you get older you value inner control more than outer worldly success.

Saturn in 12th house

You are deep inside of yourself. You are reserved and prone to periods of seclusion. You need to be left alone when you are working as you are so sensitive to everything and everyone around you.

Saturn in 12th house Afflicted

You may suffer from vague fears and deep self-doubt. You need to be able to separate yourself from other people's intentions and attitudes, Overcoming unconscious fears will improve your disposition and outlook.

SATURN IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

You have Saturn in aspect to the Moon showing a close relationship between your upbringing and your emotional outlook. This connection is explored in its essence in Section III. The Moon - Your Personal Life.

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 LEO

You have an urge to express your creativity. You throw yourself totally into what you do. There is a sense of self importance that you could always buy into, but you are really looking for some higher identity.

Uranus in 7th house

You like unique and unusual people. Engaging with others brings out a healthy competition and helps in the production of new ideas. You have a romantic streak and you get involved with unusual people quite suddenly.

Uranus in 7th house Unafflicted

You make an exciting partner. You take and give a tremendous amount of freedom. You help others develop a spirit of independence. You attract a variety of interesting people into your life. People will often share a part of themselves with you that stays hidden much of the time.

URANUS IN ASPECT TO THE SUN

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.
 

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. You can be so sensitive to others that there can be some confusion as to what belongs to them and what belongs to you. Some time alone to meditate can be an important part of each day.

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 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

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 7th house

You have very high standards and unusual taste in people, partnerships and relationships. You want deep changes and self-transformation through relationships. For all this, you are often embarrassed by what others do in relation to you. You sometimes get locked into relationships that are uncomfortable and don't see a way out. At times you feel locked out of a relationship that you want. You have a taste for the extremes.

Pluto in 7th house Unafflicted

You will have a few extremely unusual relationships. These special relationships will be a cauldron, allowing you a mirror through which you can isolate and rectify qualities of your personality that you don't care for anymore.

PLUTO IN ASPECT TO THE MOON

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.

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.

YOU HAVE NO PLANETARY SEMI-SEXTILES.

Many of your unconscious habits change with some frequency. This disrupts the fabric of your everyday life to the point where you experience less of a connection with the past than is comfortable for you. Because your past experience does not function as fully as a positive building block for you, as it does for most people, it is difficult for you to use a pilot study as a proving ground for new ideas. Your ventures often have to be tried in full force to be appreciated or even evaluated. Consequently, you have difficulty getting your personal vision for the application of an idea to be perceived as practical by others unless you can demonstrate the idea working in its fully manifested form. Accomplishment comes through focusing on a project intensely until it is completed and then sharing it with others.

      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.

Well-Aspected Pluto.

Your ability to be thorough and absolutely no-nonsense when it comes to reorienting yourself in a time of trouble is especially helpful. Your sense of timing is usually accurate. You can turn a delicate project into an assured success by being 100% behind it.
 

Moon in Taurus.

You have an inner strength that is rooted in uncommonly deep self-acceptance and self-satisfaction. You have very consistent habits that help you.

Moon in the Second House.

You have the ability to earn and save based on your solid pattern of habits. You develop a network of personal self-worth that serves you well.

Venus in Taurus.

You have a soft, sensitive, sensual side of your nature. This is a quality that allows you to enjoy the material world and find personal expression for your love nature.

Venus in the Second House.

You have natural instincts for material values. You are good at locating physical, pleasant solutions that can have a positive long-term effect in your life.

Jupiter in the Twelfth House.

You have unconscious faith in life and social processes. This positive attitude brings you luck and operates like a guardian angel in your life.

Saturn in Capricorn.

You are responsible. You have a natural ability to complete any project for which you feel responsible. You have a good sense of timing.

      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 Jupiter

Your values are lopsided so your energy and judgement 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.

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.

Mercury in the Fifth House

You have a natural skill for creating and imitating. This quality of your mental life really comes into its own when you are able to expand your normal mode of mental activity to gather new information without recourse to and use of the material.

Uranus in Leo

Your urge for freedom gets thwarted by your need for self expression. You can't build a bigger picture of yourself and overcome personal limitations simultaneously. As your sense of personal identity reaches toward a larger picture, the impulse for creativity within you can be a tremendous help.

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.

      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.

Mercury in Growth Aspect to Jupiter

Learning to express the truth of any situation without exaggeration or self hyperbole is a long lesson. Consistent refocusing on the higher implications of life, the moral and ethical significance of actions, has a refining effect on your mind.

Mercury Quincunx Jupiter

Exaggeration is second nature to you. Whatever you focus on tends to grow in your mind without anything happening in the external world. Circumstances in life can easily seem much better or much worse than they really are. Learn to trust other

people's assessment and to judge life more on the concrete facts and less on moral pronouncements which tend to be very colored by self justification and avoidance.

Jupiter in Growth aspect to Pluto

It takes a long time for you to get the proper balance between theory and practice, between value and implementation. How you treat other people and their various ideas will be the key to finding positive expression and deeper satisfaction. Any of your "shortcuts" that are perceived as high-handed or manipulative will be your undoing. Trust the innate guiding force, the common sense intelligence in other people to help you build consensus.

Jupiter Quincunx Pluto

Your overly self-secure mode of interacting disguises some deep distrust of your own foundations. Behind your flamboyance and manipulative assertions are some profound insecurities. When you come to terms with your own weaknesses and see them as not so profound or bad, you will simultaneously become more open and acknowledging of other people's values and points of view. This lays the foundation to use your vast insight and expanse of vision in a positive manner.

      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 Mercury

You place great importance on the mental faculty but you may yourself be quite nervous and temperamental. Fixing the worlds' problems starts with fixing your own physical and psychological instability. Once this is completed you are able to offer others a clarity of vision that is quite helpful in sorting out the details of normal cause and effect in your life and in the lives of others.

Sun Contra-Parallel Midheaven

You have an urge to express your personality through your home environment. Time away from work comes through a conscious decision to develop better communications with your family which is a constant source of renewal for you.

Mercury Contra-Parallel Midheaven

You have a natural and deep interest in communicating with others, but a nervousness within you can get in your way. In order to feel really adjusted it is important that you stay focused on the most essential aspects of what you wish to accomplish each day. There is a playful quality to your nature which can give you an ability to connect with many types of people.

Saturn Contra-Parallel Pluto

The drive to accomplish much in a short span of time and a general distrust of life comes from feeling that the world is a difficult and very limiting place. At root, much of this feeling is based on a negative perception about yourself and what you have coming. You are the sponsor of your own setbacks in life. Progress means to study the past world history and personal psychology in order to move forward in a responsible and effective manner. Discipline and faith are the necessary ingredients needed to put your life on a positive footing.

Uranus Contra-Parallel Ascendant

You have an erratic temperament and can be lead astray through too much sensory overload from the environment and other people. Your urge for personal freedom is strong and you are capable of moving through vast amounts of personal material and integrating vastly different talents to finally present the world with a rather unique personality. Physical exercise can be helpful in relieving tension.

      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 Virgo

Be as specific as you can be and avoid retreat into escapist fantasies. The more detailed you are in life the faster you learn. The more factual and analytic you are the quicker life moves forward. Real progress is incremental, where you recognize, catalogue, and can replicate, every step of the journey. The more you adopt a procedural and non-emotional approach to your projects the further and faster you move toward achieving your goals. Be practical and patient.

North Node of the Moon in Virgo and in the Seventh House

Much of your time can be taken up with concern as to how you appear to others. Just concentrating on the practical needs of others and forgetting yourself automatically breaks you out of your self-imposed fantasy world. This is a lifetime of connecting with people in practical ways.
