Most people are familiar with their Sun sign based on the month and day of birth. The Sun sign answers the question, "What's your sign?" It is the reference point that is employed when we read newspaper and magazine horoscopes. But what about the nine other heavenly bodies that make their influence felt in our lives? These planets were also in a particular sign of the zodiac when you were born. Here is where Astrology really begins to come alive for each individual. This report will take you on a revealing journey as you travel through each interpretation based on your unique month, day, and year of birth. If your birth time was included, then the Rising sign will add yet another dimension to your personal horoscope interpretation. If it is not included because you don't have an accurate time of birth, there is still much useful and insightful personal information that can be gleaned from your report.
This report takes into account the various spiritual and psychological implications, as well as the material plane potentials which are part of your individual life plan. In this case the word potential is used because you have been given a certain amount of free will and the life choices that you make will determine to a large extent the level at which these cosmic energies actually play themselves out. Use this report to find confirmation for what you already feel intuitively and to unlock the door for new life possibilities that you may not have yet considered. This is where the strength and real value of your personal Astrological report is found.

Your birth chart interpretation is based on the positions of the planets at the time of your birth. For the benefit of students of astrology, these positions, along with other technical information, are listed below:

The precise time on the day of your birth determines your particular Ascendant, also known as your Rising Sign. This was the zodiac sign that was rising over the horizon when you were born. In addition to your Sun and Moon Sign, the Rising Sign reveals very important traits that make up a major part of your personality and your individual approach to life. This is usually the impression you like to make before you really get to know someone; it is your outer personality and image.

Aquarius Rising:

There is a distinct part of your outer personality that expresses itself very much like an Aquarius. You are friendly, somewhat unpredictable and you have the ability to maintain a sense of individuality even within the structure of a large group.
Since this was the sign of the zodiac that was rising over the horizon at your time of birth, the principle of Aquarius--unique self-expression--will be integrated into almost every area of life in some way.

Uranus is your chart ruler. To discover even more about what's a priority for you, and also the first impression you make on others, read everything in the chapter on Uranus.

Sun in soft aspect to Asc.:

It's easy for you to shine in social situations and you radiate self-confidence, whether you know it or not. You can lead others and they will gladly follow. This is an excellent aspect for getting what you want out of life.

Mars Conjunct or in hard aspect to Asc.:

You meet challenges head on and others may see you as a "hard driver." Your personality projects a strong spirit and a lot of spunk.
You rarely back down in competitive situations and as a result, you've experienced your share of butting heads, especially with other so-called strong personalities.

Uranus Conjunct or in hard aspect to Asc.:

You're anything but a stick-in-the-mud. You march to the beat of a different drummer and you're something of a rebel. You crave excitement and when life gets too predictable (i.e., boring) you know how to stir things up again.
You'll often speak your mind regardless of the effect pro or con, that it has on other people. As a result, you attract other strong personalities who can handle your sometimes volatile personality and not be offended.

The placement of the Sun in your chart will show you how (the sign) and in which area of life (the house) tremendous potential exists for you. Here is where you want to be successful. The Sun cannot be ignored. We must meet and deal with the area of life that the Sun shines on in our chart in order find ultimate fulfillment. Everything revolves around the Sun. When you master whatever issues the Sun points to, then other areas of life will proceed in a more balanced and satisfactory manner. The Sun also represents: your own will, major goals, the father, men in your life, children, creativity, and the real inner you.

Sun in Gemini:

Clever, social, and communicative, your general approach to life is light hearted. You can be somewhat hard to pin down because you have a wonderful natural curiosity about life. You prefer to know at least a little bit about everything. The restless nature of Gemini is quite conducive to your preference for a wide variety of experiences and mental pursuits. Geminis often won't take a particular subject into great depth, but for you, just having a taste of the smorgasbord that life offers is enough to satisfy.
This is the sign of communication in all of its various forms, whether verbal, written, or just learning for the joy of it. You like sharing what you have learned with others, and the latest news and even gossip has a hard time sneaking by you.
Because of your storehouse of bits of information, you find it easy to understand different viewpoints, and you prefer to agree with someone rather than create conflict.
Taking life too seriously is not appealing to you. "Lighten up" could be your motto and other people sense this, which generally makes you easy to be around and therefore in demand socially.

Sun in 4th house:

Personal fulfillment is reinforced by establishing a secure foundation for yourself, whether emotionally or even materially.
Anything related to real estate or property matters is emphasized with this placement of the Sun.
A parent may have played an exceptionally strong role in your upbringing, or somehow exerted a powerful influence on you.
There is a side to you that is very emotional, sensitive and warm. You're naturally self protective and this extends also to those you care deeply about.

Mars in soft aspect to Sun:

Here is the opportunity to draw on willpower backed by action when the need arises. Vitality and physical energy are promoted in a positive manner and your endurance is high when you're motivated. You know how to compete for your own survival, but you generally don't go out of your way to challenge others unless you feel it's really necessary.

The Moon in your chart represents the past and points to an area of life (the house) where we function out of instinctive awareness. Often we have a deep emotional need to do the things that the Moon's house placement represents. Whenever insecurities arise and our feelings become involved, we tend to bring the traits (the sign) of our Moon into play. The Moon is like our security blanket. It also represents: the home, females in your life, the mother, nurturing others or being nurtured ourselves, as well as things related to the domestic scene in general.

Moon in Taurus:

You are stable, loyal, and basically easy to get along with. Your emotions run very deep on matters you deem worthy. You are usually slow to anger, but let others beware, because when you've had enough, you can really blow off some steam!
Naturally cautious and resistant to change, you usually prefer to follow the flow of the the crowd rather than blaze new trails alone. Watch a tendency to become too dogmatic about your personal likes and dislikes.
When your mood is low, you can always find comfort in buying yourself a present or indulging in your favorite foods. Why? Taurus is the sign of material goodies and sensual delights. Enjoy!

Moon in 2nd house:

You can expect some fluctuating circumstances surrounding money. You need to feel secure about what you have and you have an emotional need for financial success.
You tend to alternate between generosity and holding onto money with a tight fist.
Your mother may have had an influence on your value system and your upbringing strongly influenced your attitude toward money.

Venus Conjunct or in hard aspect to Moon:

Other people find you to be a soft touch. There is a gullible side to you that will toughen up as you mature.
You also like to indulge yourself in immediate gratification and to heck with disagreeable duties; they can wait 'til later.

Saturn Conjunct or in hard aspect to Moon:

Try not to be so hard on yourself. You're a whole lot better than you think you are. When you recognize your worth, you can accomplish your goals whatever they may be.
Vague feelings of melancholy and pessimism can be defeated by staying actively involved in life and taking some constructive action toward a future goal. You are someone who benefits by making sure that you have planned something each day to look forward to, no matter how small.

Pluto in soft aspect to Moon:

When you allow yourself to become emotionally upset, it's difficult for you to imagine that life will ever get better while the episode is in progress. You feel everything with every fiber of your being and crisis leaves you feeling completely drained. However, you will eventually stabilize and go on with life. Every time you're forced to emotionally regenerate yourself, you emerge more evolved at the deepest level of your being whether you are aware of it or not.

Mercury is the planet of communication. It tells us about how we think and talk. You can gain insight into your mode of gathering, processing and transmitting information from Mercury's placement in your chart. Mercury also represents: transportation, the five senses, youth, reading, and writing.

Mercury in Cancer:

Intuitive, expressive and somewhat changeable in nature, you have an active and creative imagination that can be put to very positive use if you choose. Try not to use it to create imaginary slights from others that will only cause you unnecessary disappointment.
This placement makes you easily swayed by emotional states, whether they originate within yourself or are generated by other people.
You have a good memory and a sentimental nature.
For some people, shyness may be an obstacle to overcome at some point in life. This timidity does not necessarily come from lack of self-esteem. It often stems from an instinctive need to protect your naturally sensitive emotions from the onslaught of a sometimes too chaotic environment.

Mercury in 5th house:

You may enjoy literary and other intellectual pursuits as a form of recreation. Games and hobbies that stimulate the mind are favored.
You want others to recognize you for your mental abilities and you can use the power of words to attract attention and influence others. Teaching might appeal to you.

Neptune in soft aspect to Mercury:

This endows you with the ability to use your faculties of imagination along artistic or musical lines. You can easily tune out reality from time to time and you often prefer to live in your own idealistic world. You are often more in sync with the dreamy, mystical side of life than with the mundane affairs of everyday duties and responsibilities. It is easier for you than most other people to cross the line between reality and imagination.
You can talk a blue streak at times, yet at other times you can completely clam up.

Pluto in soft aspect to Mercury:

You can drastically alter your life utilizing the power of thought and words. Therefore, it is advisable to watch what you say and to banish negative thinking. Spoken and written affirmations carry extra weight with this aspect, so make them positive and life affirming.

Venus is the planet of relating to others, and thus is associated with love, attraction and socializing. In a male's chart, Venus can provide clues about traits he finds attractive in females. In a female's chart, it reveals something about how she relates to males. Venus is also the planet of material goodies and sensual delights in all of their various forms. Venus also represents: money, harmonious conditions, pleasurable activities, beauty, and the arts.

Venus in Taurus:

Affectionate and devoted, you generally make a cooperative and loyal partner. In relationships, whether with a lover or a good friend, Venus in Taurus can make you overly attached to a situation that in truth it would be better to leave. Usually this is due to avoidance of change, and change is something that Taurus doesn't feel especially comfortable with. The same qualities that make you devoted and loyal can turn into jealousy and possessiveness if not checked.
You absolutely and totally enjoy all of the good things life has to offer. This is a very sensual placement for Venus. Even your clothing must feel good as well as look good.
You have a deep appreciation for beauty in all its forms, especially those that express natural simplicity and lasting value.

Venus in 2nd house:

Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you. You can be a lavish spender because money matters tend to work themselves out in your favor in the end.
The ability to relate harmoniously with other people will enhance your money supply.
Venus here helps to grant more stability in close relationships and affectionate attachments.
You may have some inherited artistic/musical ability.

Jupiter Conjunct or in hard aspect to Venus:

You can be fairly extravagant with your finances. The word excessive often describes your attitude toward matters of love and money. You are attracted to the finer things in life, and you don't mind indulging yourself.

Saturn Conjunct or in hard aspect to Venus:

You take relationships seriously and you may have had your share of disappointments by bonding with those who don't display the same level of commitment. Because of this, you might become pessimistic and overly cautious which can then create self fulfilling prophecies. Associations may then be sought out for reasons of self preservation and status in an attempt to avoid emotional injury.

Pluto in soft aspect to Venus:

You will experience at least one intense relationship that will have a transforming effect on your approach to matters of the heart.
This aspect brings a kind of instant knowing of the partner and love at first sight is common. If you and your partner are not coming from a position of manipulation or control, then this aspect can represent the highest form of commitment and love. At any rate, issues around love and money can swing from one end of the spectrum to the other.

Mars is our planet of action, energy output, motivation, and instinctive biological drives. It shows how and in which area of life you are willing to put forth a lot of effort. Mars' energy is quick, impulsive, and survival oriented. In a male's chart, Mars reveals something about how he relates to females. In a female's chart, Mars can provide clues about the traits she finds attractive in males. Mars also represents: competitive situations, conflicts, accidents, and sexual energies.

Mars in Leo:

You are passionate, have a naturally magnetic sex appeal and you possess a strong self will. You are courageous, fearless and brave, especially during times of crisis. You don't like to lose, and this trait makes you an extremely stubborn opponent when challenged. Action and vitality combine to create the ability to finish what you start, or negatively, to make you likely to be someone who doesn't know when it's time to quit.
You can be quite the authoritarian. This is due to your ardent desire to complete projects once they are started, and you have little patience with those who can't match your enthusiasm and drive.
This position supports the actor / teacher / group leader / authority figure.

Mars in 6th house:

Are you a bit of a workaholic? Perhaps. You feel that your survival depends on the level of work that you're able to accomplish. Mars here could also be saying that the work you do requires a higher than usual energy level.
Co-workers can be highly competitive and you may have to draw heavily on your own survival instincts in the workplace.
You are willing to invest a lot of time and energy on everyday type duties because you don't like leaving loose ends lying around. Just do it! That's your motto. You can accomplish a great deal if you resist getting too tangled up in ideas of perfection.

Uranus Conjunct or in hard aspect to Mars:

You don't usually like to take advice and you can't stand to have your freedom imposed upon. You're something of a rebel at heart and you crave adventure and new experiences. Your temper can be explosive.
This aspect can make you accident prone due to accelerated actions and a lack of carefulness. Patience will have to come from other chart factors. A sense of caution needs to be consciously developed in order to avoid mishaps.
Crisis situations stimulate your survival instincts and you can do some of your finest work under the influence of a pressing deadline.

Jupiter is the planet of expansion and taking things beyond normal limits. It shows us where the universe allows us to indulge ourselves, and often we find that wherever it is in the chart is where things work out in our favor eventually. Some call this luck. Jupiter also represents: faith, ideas about God, abstract thinking, high ideals, and abundance.

Jupiter in Aquarius:

You are self-sufficient, unconventional and cause oriented. You are tolerant of the many variations in humankind in general; however, once you form your own opinion about a particular subject you are hard pressed to change it. You will benefit by working cooperatively with groups of people devoted to a common cause.
Success in life is enhanced by having the courage to be different and by accepting your own unique qualities. There is a touch of rebelliousness in you and this can be positively channeled into humanitarian efforts.
You probably prefer to have numerous associations versus a few close relationships.
Your life may also be marked by many circumstances that appear to be subject to sudden and unexpected changes. Generally though, these changes prove to be beneficial in the end. Flashes of sudden insight that seem to appear out of nowhere are really your own intuitive processes coming forth. Learn to follow the lead of these intuitive impulses and you will be able to maneuver through life changes with greater ease.

Jupiter in 12th house:

Whether you are aware of it or not, you have a kind of spiritual protection hovering around you. It's difficult for other people to succeed in undermining your goals. Eventually you will triumph.
Spending some time alone and getting into a meditative state is beneficial for you. The potential exists for actual spiritual experiences.
You tend to expect the best and it's helpful for you to get into the habit of bringing yourself down to earth for a reality check once in a while, as other people won't always live up to your expectations.

Neptune Conjunct or in hard aspect to Jupiter:

Sentimental and idealistic, you often find the reality of day to day struggles difficult to bear. The best way to use this aspect is to stay tuned into universal forces that promote faith and acknowledgment of a higher power in your life. You have the ability to move beyond simple faith into the realm of true enlightenment. This a lifetime in which the stars lend encouragement where spiritual pursuits are concerned. Take some classes in meditation and learn some techniques for grounding yourself on a daily basis.
Practice dealing with mundane responsibilities while they're still molehills instead of putting them off until they turn into mountains.
Allow the imperfections of the world to stimulate practical actions for improvement. You can be a powerful force for goodness. Gurus may come and go, but remember to make your own intuition the bottom line; it will not fail you.

Jupiter is Retrograde

Your abundance is felt on the inside. You can feel satisfied with less than other people, which can be quite admirable in a way. The result is, it's easy for you to settle for crumbs when you'd really like more out of life. Take an honest inner inventory of what you believe you deserve, because that's what you'll get. Affirm to yourself that you can have what you want because you're worth it.

Saturn is our planet of restriction and discipline. It shows us where we may feel inadequate in some way, and thus we take this area of life very seriously because we want to perfect ourselves. Saturn also represents: life lessons to be learned, trials and tests, a strong sense of duty, and bringing ideas into material form.

Saturn in Capricorn:

You can be an extremely hard worker, and you'll overcome obstacles that other less dedicated souls would have given up on a long time ago. This is an excellent placement for successful achievement of goals. However, you will have to draw on your own ability to discipline yourself and persevere through difficult times.
Life lessons include learning to deal with authority figures and being responsible without necessarily being asked, especially for others.
You might also be willing to make tremendous personal sacrifices for the sake of your ambitions.
Reminder: try not to lose sight of important relationships, and remember to take some time out once in a while to lighten up, otherwise you could end up lonely and dissatisfied. Bones, joints and especially the knees may be vulnerable to injury or arthritic type conditions. If these problems develop try avoiding caffeine and white sugar.

Saturn in 12th house:

This is a lifetime that will be greatly enriched by helping your fellow man altruistically. Make some time to add a little hope to someone else's life. You can empathize with others' feelings of hopelessness and despair because you have either experienced these emotions yourself or you have subconscious memories from past lives to draw on.
Develop conviction and learn to ignore inner voices of doubt and pessimism.
Whatever you imagine can turn into reality, so you may as well make a pledge to yourself to think only the best. Take a chance on blind optimism.

Saturn is Retrograde

No one can give you a hard time like you can give yourself. You rarely feel satisfied with your own efforts. Constantly nagging inner voices of self criticism and unrealistic ideas of perfection can censor spontaneous creativity and squelch action before you even get started. You'll have to practice self trust. "Let go and let God" is a good mantra for you to mentally recite until your subconscious gets the message. Here's another: I will do my best and forget the rest. I will do my best and forget the rest. I will do my best and....

Uranus is a planet of unexpected change and unpredictable events. It tells us something about where we have unusual ideas and how we want to express our own unique individuality. Uranus also represents: rebelliousness, sudden awakenings, invention, progress, genius, anything "New Age," and humanitarian efforts.

Uranus in Leo:

Uranus was in the sign of Leo for approximately seven years. This means that you are part of a large group of people who will share many of the same fundamental characteristics such as the ability to be highly creative and even flamboyant. Unusual approaches to child rearing and a rebellious attitude toward rules and regulations are keynotes here.
When you read your individual house placement for Uranus, you will be able to see where these traits will express themselves on a more personal basis.

Uranus in 7th house:

You can be a genius when it comes to partnerships. You have to be because you tend to attract partners who are quite independent, perhaps even a bit rebellious.
Close commitments may seem to be under the influence of many circumstances beyond your control. You or the other person might have some unusual ideas about marriage.
Sudden attractions can tempt you to make legal commitments prematurely. Either you or your partner requires a certain amount of independence. Possessiveness can yield disastrous results.

Neptune is a planet that dissolves hard and fast boundaries. It is where we don't always see things as they really are, mostly because we would rather view the world through rose-colored glasses.

With Neptune, anything becomes a possibility, especially that which we can imagine. Neptune also represents: tuning into other planes of reality, the spiritual dimensions, cosmic consciousness, movies, music, and inspired creativity.

Neptune in Scorpio:

Because Neptune stays in the same sign about fourteen years, there are many other people who will experience the same things that this placement brings to varying degrees. Some of these include: a breakdown in sexual boundaries, positive spiritual transformation or extreme confusion along those lines, and a high level of deeply perceptive insights about yourself or others.
Your house position will show where Neptune affects your life on an individual basis.

Neptune in 8th house:

At the very least, you have excellent powers of intuition that can border on being genuinely psychic. Don't be surprised if at some point in your life you experience clairvoyant dreams or visions. The things that you visualize can change your life.
It is in your best interest to keep all of your personal money matters to yourself. If financial dealings arise concerning taxes, shared resources and inheritance, be sure that everything is kept aboveboard.

Pluto in soft aspect to Neptune:

Bigotry and narrow thinking are huge turn offs for you. You lean toward a humanitarian outlook and you see the big picture, whether it applies to you or society as a whole. Mysticism, magic and the occult attract your interest and you can choose to use any knowledge gained to produce positive results.
Spirituality can undergo a complete regeneration process, and what went before will be transformed into something that doesn't even resemble the former. Usually there is a period of total chaos and confusion before order is restored.
Anything that is based on deception and pretense will be brought to light and purged accordingly. The effects of this aspect are often generational and the outcome will affect large segments of the society you live in.

Neptune is Retrograde

Ever heard the term "suffer in silence?" Does it apply to you? Ask yourself why you find it so difficult to share your real pain with others. Someone made you feel guilty a long time ago and now a part of you lives as though you're trying to make up for whatever the original so-called transgression was. You want to heal the whole world. Start with forgiving yourself in no uncertain terms. Unload other people's shabby misconceptions which have been foisted upon you and find the tranquility you deserve.

Pluto is a planet that brings with it transformation. Something about the area of life that it points to will undergo a complete change. Significant lifestyle changes can happen whenever Pluto is involved. Deep, complex issues will be brought to light eventually. It is where conditions can swing from one extreme to the other. It's all or nothing.
Pluto also represents: psychological probing, keeping secrets or bringing them to light, power and control issues, obsessions, healing and purification.

Pluto in Virgo:

Pluto is the slowest moving planet, and thus is recognized as exerting a generational influence as it moves through each zodiac sign.
With Pluto in Virgo you're part of the generation that can experience radical changes in scientific discovery, the medical profession, diet and nutrition and the work ethic.
On a personal level, those with Pluto in Virgo tend to be aware of health related issues and are analytically minded, perfectionist and discerning.
Read the house placement for Pluto in your chart. It shows you an area of life where this planet has a more personal influence.

Pluto in 7th house:

You'll learn all about the art of cooperation with other people with this Pluto placement. One-on-one relationships, whether friends, marriage, or business partners, will affect your life in a profound manner.
Obsessive needs in the relationship department can cause you to pull in people who are controlling or manipulative. Power struggles only escalate the conflict. Once you decide that you can be your own best friend/advisor and you can walk away from "must win" scenarios, the universe will lighten up on you.

In this section of the report we interpret the following astrological influences: the Moon's North Node, the MC (the 10th house cusp or Midheaven) and also a preponderance of an astrological element. A "preponderance" occurs when 4 or more planets or the Ascendant is in that element: fire, earth, air, or water. Many people do not have a heavy emphasis of a particular element so not everyone will have an interpretation of an element emphasis.

If the individual chart has aspects to the MC, these will reveal certain career options and potentials for your consideration.

The North Node is an important pointer along the pathway of life. You'll have to be willing to stretch yourself and move away from familiar patterns in order to meet the challenge of the North Node. Great rewards will be reaped in the form of personal growth and reaching your potential goals. The North Node sign will suggest an approach to the area of life represented by its house position.

North Node in Virgo:

Incorporating the following traits into your life will make it easier in the long run to attain goals.

The best way to describe this principle is to imagine a bird having to leave its nest for the first time. It is extremely challenging, but it's the only way to really learn to fly.

Learn that it's O.K. to say no. This is a lifetime to learn all about separating what is useful from what is not. You can be an expert at logical analysis. Tie up loose ends and get yourself organized.

Worry and anxiety can be held at bay by making yourself useful. Active participation in life, especially helping other people, will keep your mind at ease and your energy high. Pay attention to health messages from your body.
Discover that dealing with mundane responsibilities and disagreeable chores, instead of putting them off, can actually create its own kind of freedom.

North Node in 7th house:

The universe is encouraging you to play up the aforementioned traits in these areas of life.
Consider the following: perfect the art of relating to other people, especially on a one-to-one basis. You'll learn all about finding the balance between giving and receiving through close relationships, such as marriage, best friends, or even business partners. Diplomacy can become your strong point.

MC Conjunct or in hard aspect to Sun:

You'll have to develop the ability to put yourself in the limelight in order to go after what you really want career-wise. Ego conflicts with those in authority can create setbacks until you learn the art of finding a middle course.
A career that provides an outlet for creative self-expression, leadership abilities and personal recognition is important to consider. Hint: read the section on your Sun Sign and ask yourself how those traits might best be expressed when choosing a career.

MC in soft aspect to Mars:

You're well equipped to handle the competitive situations that arise in the workplace and your willingness to work tirelessly on projects wins favor with the boss. You don't go out of your way to be pushy with authority figures, but you do see them as equals and you're not shy about voicing your opinions. You're excellent at getting things going and you have plenty of innovative ideas to contribute.
A career in the military, professional athletics, marketing, or in supervisory positions is supported. Choose a career that allows you to draw on your natural ability to lead, compete and meet new challenges.

Four or more Earth Signs

Stable and grounded, you will learn all about how to bring what you dream about into practical reality. Manifestation is the key here. Develop a habit of finishing whatever you start. Enjoy and appreciate the bounty that the earth offers.
You like feeling useful and you can develop a real talent for solid accomplishment in life. People admire your willingness to take responsibility for getting things done.

This chapter deals with an Astrological technique known as House Rulers. The "houses" of the horoscope deal primarily with your earth plane experiences. As such, the tone of these interpretations may appear to be more "predictive" in nature. Not all statements will apply absolutely to your experience. Here we are exploring some of the various options that may exist in your chart based on the links between these twelve major areas of life, the Houses of the Horoscope.

Ruler of 1st house in 7th:

You'd make a fine counselor because of your ability to relate to other people.

Ruler of 2nd house in 6th:

Your closest partnerships have a nurturing quality to them. You may need a partner who will somehow fill emotional needs that were neglected during your upbringing.

You could have a desire to serve humankind altruistically or help other people in a behind-the-scenes capacity. This astrological influence can also denote a relationship to secret organizations.
Your unusual ideas can lead to your own undoing. This possibility can manifest as a result of extremely radical approaches. Diplomacy and the inclusion of others can only help your causes.

Ruler of 12th house in 12th:

Your past lives have an influence on your desire to help other people and you may choose to perform some kind of service through large public institutions.
You may experience confusion and doubt about certain spiritual matters. You can more easily get in touch with your subconscious mind, or even receive spiritual guidance while you are in a meditative state.
Allowing feelings of self doubt and guilt to get the upper hand will eventually work against you. Put the past behind you. Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
