Chapter 1: The Moon
The
placement of the Moon in your birth chart is very significant
from a karmic perspective, as
it indicates the accumulated karmic tendencies, both positive
and negative, that you carry from your past incarnated experiences
on earth.
While the Sun reveals your intended
purposes and lessons for this present life cycle, the MOON represents
what you have already done and developed, hence, what is instinctive
and natural to you, and what you tend to do over and over again.
Your childhood is also reflected in the Moon's placement, as
it is through those childhood circumstances that any unresolved
past-life issues are re-stimulated. Your subconscious predisposition
is indicated by the Moon's position. It is the psychic
imprint of the past. The nodes of the Moon describe behavior
patterns from the past, as well as delineating a direction out
of outworn or overdone behaviors and habits.
Moon in Taurus:
You instinctively react to stress
with patience and forbearance, and can withstand a great deal
of buffeting or pressure without losing your emotional stability. Slow
to respond to provocation, you are not easily knocked off center
and you maintain your inner poise even under trying circumstances.
Your incarnational past has been
one of being deeply rooted in family and tradition, close to
nature and the land, amidst relatively stable and peaceful conditions. Working
on, or owning land, and living in accordance with nature's rhythms
and cycles, gave you a deep sense of security which carries through
to your present life in a number of ways. First is your
preference for natural surroundings and your gift for growing
things. You find comfort in your garden or even a drive
through the countryside. Growing and working with plants and
herbs can also be soothing to you for the same reason -- you
have done so before and it is very familiar to you. Cooking
and eating the food you have prepared seems to nourish you on
levels besides the physical one. Relying on food to satisfy
emotional needs or to promote a sense of security can obviously
be a mixed blessing. You are a sensual person, and the
touch of another person, your bare feet on earth, the feel of
a tool in your hand: these are both pleasurable and comforting. All
of these basic, natural, earthy activities, (gardening, farming,
cooking, eating) are types of experiences you now instinctively
seek out when feeling threatened in any way. Your deeply ingrained,
down-to-earth common sense and basic practical skills give you
a good foundation for taking care of yourself.
Another attribute you have developed
in the past is your ability to stay with something and to wait
long and patiently for an outcome. You intuitively understand
the need for a gestation time, a period of inner preparation,
waiting, and seeming inactivity before the fruits or the outward
blossoming can happen. You have a kind of emotional stamina which
enables you to "keep on keeping on", especially in
regard to personal situations and relations. However, in many
instances your apparent loyalty is little more than a slavish
adherence to habit, and a tremendous disinclination to disrupt
the status quo. When faced with the need to change, your initial
response is to STAY PUT. Getting stuck in a rut is a great temptation
for you. Having had little experience in moving around or adapting
to changing circumstances, you now tend to retreat into the known
and to stubbornly cling to the familiar rather than greeting
upcoming changes with a sense of adventure or curiosity. Even
a move which is positive, and very much desired by you consciously
is apt to be met with some strong inner, unconscious resistance,
and a great need for reassurance. Latching on to your children,
long-time friends, or family members, becoming very territorial
and possessive of your belongings, being constantly and excessively
concerned with money and financial security (even when you are
not in lack), or as mentioned above, indulging in food for comfort,
are all indications that some part of you feels that you are
moving away from tradition (and thus safety) too quickly. You
need to learn how to nourish yourself and to feel secure without
trying to control everything and everybody. While you would
prefer sameness, you need to accept a certain amount of "chaos". Not
every variable can be accounted for and not all of the unpredictability,
mystery, and risk in life can be eliminated!
You may find yourself attracting
people into your life who are drawn to your emotional steadiness
and your earthy groundedness. You can be relied upon and
others sense this. One gift you have to share with others is
your well-developed knack for handling financial matters, and
the material side of life in general.
Moon Square Saturn:
You are bringing into your current
lifetime subconscious memories of harsh discipline, emotional
deprivation, separations from family and other sources of security,
which prevented you from being properly nourished and cared for. You
may be responding to these experiences in different ways, for
instance, you may need tremendous amounts of reassurance and
supportive love from the people around you in order to feel that
you can trust them. You may cling to family, traditions, routines,
and structures. You may have persistent underlying feelings of
sadness or loss without recognizing their source. You may
concentrate on your work and practical responsibilities (to neglect
your emotions and personal life). You may isolate yourself
and feel alone, or refuse to be alone, becoming fearful and anxious
without others nearby. You may be needy and insecure about
your worth, or hide all of your needs for love and affirmation
behind a mask of cool indifference. On a physical level,
you may have an extremely sensitive stomach, poor digestion,
and an inability to take certain foods.
Much of this is based on your
subconscious belief that whatever occurred in the past was your
fault (even though you may have been innocent), and that love,
security, and comfort are scarce commodities which can be withdrawn
from you at any time. In this lifetime you will be working with
these patterns, learning to nurture and care for yourself. There
may be periods of aloneness and singularity which instead of
being lonely and isolated can be healing, giving you time to
do quiet, contemplative activities that nourish you.
These strict disciplines you were
burdened with in the past need to be balanced with gentleness. You
are much too hard on yourself, and you tend to see criticism
and blame where none is intended. Above all, self-acceptance
and cherishing yourself, regardless of your flaws or supposed
past errors, is a major lesson in this current cycle.
North Node in Virgo:
In your incarnational past you
tended to be idealistic and imaginative, and longed to escape
the difficulties of ordinary physical life. Your growth
direction now is to learn to be more clear and focused, and to
ground your charitable impulses in some sort of practical service.
North Node in 7th house:
Your past tendency is so natural
to you, so much a part of how you are, that you probably do not
think twice. Let others help bring out your new attitude
or growth direction; be willing to be a learner. Selfishness
and a deeply rooted "me first" attitude needs to give
way to a consciousness of "us" and/or what you can
do with or for the other.
Moon Conjunct Venus:
Regardless of any traumas you
may have experienced in the past, you were also surrounded with
a lot of love and affection which has engendered in you a very
kind, devoted, loving nature and a sweet disposition. Your
relationships with the women in your life are apt to be a source
of much happiness and blessings, also, because at a deep level
you understand and appreciate them, having (most likely) been
female often in your incarnational past.
You
have a rather peace-loving, comfort-seeking nature which may
resist strenuous effort or discipline. You
like to be pampered and may look for a "sugar daddy" or "sugar
mama" to ease your way. Self-indulgence in sweets
or pleasures is apt to be a habit also.
Chapter
2: The Sun
The Sun in your birth chart represents
the primary creative thrust for this lifetime, those qualities
you are to develop (or further develop) and express, and your
current life focus. This may be in harmony with your instincts
and your emotional habits, or along completely different lines. The
Sun represents your conscious identity in this lifetime.
Sun in Gemini:
You came into this life equipped
with great curiosity, a lively, versatile, inquisitive mind,
and an urge for constant learning and new experiences. Your
most basic inner drives are to communicate, to make connections
and association (between people or ideas), and to develop your
gift for language and expressing yourself through the spoken
or written word. Thus, being an intermediary or messenger,
a translator, a teacher, a broadcaster, a correspondent, or in
some field where you can mix and mingle and interact with a broad
spectrum of people, suits you well.
Fascinated by life's seemingly
endless variety and the multitude of options and choices available,
you may flit from one person, job, hobby, or location to the
next, restlessly seeking new experiences and stimuli. Even
if you do not do this in your outward behavior, inwardly your
mind is in constant motion, and you require a healthy dose of
variation and mental or social stimulation in your life in order
to approach anything resembling contentment. Skimming lightly
over the surface of life, however, can lead to a shallowness
of understanding and a fluttering away of your energies.
At a deep level, you are much
more identified with your mind (or spirit) than with your body
and, in fact, you may feel peculiarly detached from your body,
and somewhat at odds with being physical. Compared to the
lightness and rapidity of thought, earthly experience can seem
dull and slow to you and this contributes to your bouts of impatience
and restlessness. Psychologically, also, you are more androgynous
than sharply polarized as either man or woman. This means
that you are able to relate equally well to men and women, having
much of both in your inner make up. In some ways, however,
you are apt to feel non-identified with your gender and perhaps
that you are not a "real" man or woman, or a secret
confusion over feeling neither wholly male or female but some
curious place in between, a blend of both.
Esoterically or spiritually considered,
you are here (among other reasons) to develop an awareness of
dualism and of opposites. You see at least two sides of
everything and are often of two minds about any given topic. You
possess many opposing attributes within yourself and it is part
of your soul development to bring them together within yourself. In
addition to the male/female dualism, there is the idealist/cynic
and the rational scientist/intuitive mystic (or "believer"),
among others. You are apt to switch from one to another
or, chameleon-like, to change according to your surroundings,
circumstances, or companions. This mutable quality is apt to
earn you a reputation for being somehow shifty, fickle, or outright
duplicitous, which may or may not be accurate. What is
true is that because you see validity in both ways of being,
you can not take either of them completely seriously, or to put
yourself whole heartedly into either. You are keenly aware
of the humorous, the paradoxical, the other side of the coin
- and often can not help pointing it out.
The
above mentioned urge to connect and communicate which at one
level may simply be expressed as
incessant talking or a ferocious need for social interaction
is operative on an inner level as well: you need to connect your
intellect with your intuition, your conscious with your unconscious,
your head with your heart.
(Being, at a deep level, more
allied with your mind and ageless, ever-young spirit rather than
your body has another significance as well: you may be terribly
resistant to and fearful of the body's aging process. Denying
your advancing years, even lying about your age, is a typical
response to this. Coming to terms with the fact of aging and
dying is very important because otherwise you are apt not to
take your life seriously either).
Sun SemiSquare Venus:
How to be true to yourself while
also enjoying close personal relationships is a pointed issue
for you in this lifetime. When you compromise or give up
too much of yourself for the sake of making other people happy
or keeping a relationship intact, a lot of internal friction
is created and you feel increasingly empty or uncertain of your
identity. At other times you may see-saw to the other extreme
and expect others to totally support your creative efforts or
to revolve their lives around your needs. Finding a balance
between blending intimately and being authentically yourself
is your challenge.
Chapter 3: Rising Sign
The point that was on the eastern
horizon at the moment of your birth is called the ASCENDANT,
or rising sign. While the Sun describes your conscious
direction and current life focus, and the Moon your subconscious
predisposition and past, the Ascendant indicates a way of being
that transcends and embraces past, present, and future. It
describes the way you engage and merge with the outer world and
how you bring through into life the energies depicted by the
Sun, the Moon, and the rest of your birth chart. Everything
is filtered through the Ascendant from an esoteric point of view. It
indicates your soul's function and thus a key part of your destiny.
Aquarius Rising:
Your personal destiny and soul
function is ultimately related to the impulses toward progressive
change, experimentation and innovative, creative thinking which
reside in the collective psyche of your generation. You
are a conduit for change, for awakening new thought. As
such, you will always be seen as a bit avant garde, offbeat,
or different. Spiritual unity and weaving individuals into
harmonious cooperative groups are the ideals that you are intended
to embody. You focus is on the power of the group which
transcends the individual. An innate and genuine humanitarianism
and altruism are the high side of this; and uncompromising dogmatic
social ideology is the other extreme. Ruled by both Saturn,
the planet of form, and by Uranus, the planet of pure mind, you
must bring your ideas and ideals into a real, practicable, livable
form.
Aquarius Rising and Uranus in Leo:
Your Uranus is in Leo: The rejection
of all external authority or tyranny is a theme in your generation,
and FREEDOM of self-expression is your deepest impulse. You
have a gift for organizing group endeavors and leading efforts
for individual's rights.
Chapter 4: Saturn, Your Achilles Heel
Karmically considered, the placement
of Saturn in your birth chart indicates where your energetic
blockages, weaknesses and fears lie, and the areas of your life
where the most concentrated effort and discipline will be required
to master and overcome them. Yet it also points to the
aspects of life which can become your greatest strength if you
are willing to face your fears and difficulties honestly, and
work with them patiently.
Saturn in Capricorn
The quality which is most likely
to undermine you is your propensity to be very judgmental and
hard on yourself (and on others as well). It is as if there
were within you a very stern, exacting Father, always critically
assessing your actions and condemning your weaknesses or mistakes,
urging you to grow up and take responsibility for yourself and
reminding you that life is serious business, not a playground. While
this is not entirely without merit, it is hard to live up to
these internal standards all of the time, and a sense of inadequacy,
of never quite making the mark, can plague you. You can
become overly responsible, overly conscientious and depressed
by this burdensome state of mind. Coldness, cynicism and
a callous worldliness are negative potentials. And if you
project these attitudes outwardly, you will find other people
can never meet your expectations.
A
karmic link to your father with whom you are apt to have a
rather difficult or distant relationship
is also indicated. The test or lesson for you is to learn to
embody all of the positive attributes of a father (regardless
of your own gender), while also having compassion, humor and
forgiveness towards yourself.
Saturn in 12th house:
The anxieties and insecurities
you struggle with may loom large in your inner life simply because
you tend to avoid looking them in the eye. You are like
the little child lying in a darkened room imagining hideous monsters
under the bed and becoming paralyzed by these imaginary fears. Your
sense of powerlessness and fear of being victimized by some "bad
thing out there" may prevent you from functioning effectively
in the world and living out your full potential. Definitely
you are your own worst enemy and severest critic, and you may
be plagued by feelings of self-doubt and condemnation, worthlessness,
and guilt, much of which is either unfounded or based on ancient,
not clearly recognized "sins" from the past. Believing
the worst about yourself, you are prone to hide from others,
certain that they, too, will reject you. Unconscious messages
you still carry (possibly from a critical father) are probably
weighing you down and preventing you from seeing yourself realistically.
On the other end of the spectrum,
you may repress your own fears, your natural sense of caution
and limits, "never allowing yourself the luxury of a negative
thought", and consequently go blithely along until you are
hit over the head from behind with an undeniable dose of reality. You
may see-saw between believing you are far more limited (and bad)
than you actually are, to not seeing limits or boundaries until
you run straight into a brick wall.
You need to "make friends
with your shadow", though this is by no means an easy task. It
has been said that "there is nothing to fear but fear itself".
Saturn is Retrograde:
All of the above is complicated
by the fact that you carry a rather heavy burden of self-doubt,
mistrust, or guilt over having let yourself and others down in
your past, when you struggled (and failed) with these same issues. You
now have the opportunity to correct your course, make amends
and resolve a difficult karmic tangle, or a difficult state of
mind.
Saturn Square Venus:
In this lifetime the arena of
human relationships and personal love will be full of challenge
and lessons for you. Love is hard to find, hard to sustain, or
just plain hard! Shyness and loneliness, due mostly to an acute
sensitivity to the possibility of rejection, are apt to plague
your younger years. Even when friendship and open affection is
offered to you, you are prone to doubt it, push it away in disbelief,
or feel unworthy of it. Pure, unadulterated pleasure in any form
discomforts you. Subconsciously at least, you believe that there
is a price to be paid for any love or pleasure you receive, that
you may be punished if you enjoy too much or love too much. There
is an inner link between love and loss, love and separation,
or love and punishment that inhibits you or makes you wary. Worst
of all, you may feel that you are unlovable or unwanted. All
of this is a karmic carry-over which needs to be handled with
great compassion toward yourself. You may have toughened
up and hardened your heart a great deal due to past injury, so
that you have acted in cold, unfeeling, ungenerous, or unloving
ways towards others and yourself. Perhaps, too, you have
put work or other responsibilities ahead of the needs and desires
of your heart. An opening and healing of the heart, first
of all by cherishing yourself, is necessary. Once you start
valuing yourself, your personal relationships will reflect that,
and happiness in love in your later years can do much to make
up for the earlier difficulties.
You
might wish to wear or carry rose quartz, tourmaline, lavender,
jade, or chrysoprase.
Chapter 5: The Hard Aspects
The
following is a description of your MAJOR LIFE CHALLENGES, both
in terms of energies you
are to learn to develop and express in a positive way, and those
which are the result of struggles and unresolved karmic issues
which you have brought into this life.
Mercury Quincunx Jupiter:
Forging
a link between your conscious intellect and your super-conscious
or higher mind is a major
focus for you in this lifetime.
This may be felt initially in
a number of ways: an urge to expand mental horizons and absorb
as much knowledge as possible through broad study or world travel,
an attraction to spiritual philosophy, or simply as mental restlessness
and dissatisfaction with the mundane details of life. What
you are seeking is to see the larger pattern, an overview which
gives both an integrated understanding and meaning to one's experiences. This
cannot be apprehended solely through the conscious intellect,
but comes through the capacity to intuit and make connections
and see patterns. This desire to see the big picture sometimes
translates as a certain sloppiness or imprecision in your thinking. The
broad brush strokes are often enough for you. Also, you
quickly grasp the overall idea or concept and do not want to
get bogged down with the particulars.
You tend to focus on what is possible
(the limitlessness of potential) rather than what already is. Optimistic
and open-minded, you see reasons why things could happen rather
than why they cannot. The development of this kind of faith
and the belief in things not yet realized is also an aspect of
your linking your conscious mind to your higher mind.
The ability and the calling to
communicate truth is a part of this energy pattern as well. When
out of balance you can be preachy, exaggerate what you know,
or think you know it all. Channeled positively and productively,
you could evolve into a teacher who brings parts of the world
together. Long distance communication and journeys (both
in the physical, outer world and in the inner realms) are part
of this aspect. At your finest with this particular pattern,
you will act as a mediator or bridge between different places
or realms.
Venus Square Jupiter:
Some of your greatest challenges
in life revolve around the question: "What am I willing
to sacrifice in order to have comfort, ease, pleasure, and "the
good life?" (however you define the phrase.) You have
a definite tendency toward laziness, self-indulgence, irresponsibility
towards money. There may be a desire for a "sugar
daddy" or "sugar mama", and/or an unwillingness
to say "no" to immediate gratification in pursuit of
a long range goal or higher pleasure" (i.e., the "higher
pleasure" of having a fit, healthy body, versus eating dessert
whenever you wish or the "higher pleasure" of achieving
something substantial from your own efforts versus letting someone
else take care of you and do all the "hard stuff").
Money and material prosperity may be inordinately important to
you or you may care nothing for . In either case, you are
apt to be rather wasteful, overly generous, or negligent about
money and other resources.
In this lifetime you are learning
about values. A need to develop temperance and moderation,
healthy, balanced self-discipline and a sense of proper limits
is essential. The "play now/pay later" plan will
eventually catch up with you and your middle and later years
may be filled with regret if you do not pay attention to this.
You do attract wealth and/or material
comfort rather easily, but whether you use it well is up to you. Your
extravagance and rich tastes can cause you considerable suffering
if you DO NOT possess them. Even if you do obtain luxuries,
they may be empty pleasures if you do so at the expense of living
out deeper values.
Mars Conjunct Uranus:
You are like a very high-spirited,
temperamental horse, full of great energy and drive, but also
impulsive, erratic, fitful, and prone to sudden starts and stops. Also
there is within you a fierce independence, a strong craving for
freedom, and at times a fiery rebelliousness. If you have
free rein, you can be relatively happy, though not ever completely "settled" or
contentedly serene for long. Under conditions that are
too structured and constricted, however, you are more apt to
blow up.
When out of balance you are prone
to express yourself in ways that can have negative karmic consequences,
such as: irritable impatience and a volatile, unpredictable temper
(which can affect your health as well as damage the trust and
quality of your relationships); intense restlessness (resulting
in an inability to persist with a project long enough to see
it through to completion); a complete unwillingness to cooperate
or compromise (which also can undermine relationships, particularly
with authority); physical recklessness (which an lead to accidents);
and/or the inclination to ignite controversy and unrest in your
environment. Because of your high (if somewhat unstable)
energy level you are apt to forge ahead, oblivious to the fact
that you are running right over the people around you. You may
believe you are your own law or are above the law. Too
much attachment to action and to being right are also potentials
within you.
Learning
to slow down, developing patience and the capacity to wait
and cultivating a more steady,
peaceful spirit will enable you to express the higher creativity,
originality, and inspired passion of which you are capable.
Jupiter is Retrograde:
Moral concerns (including lingering
unresolved issues stemming from a prior lifetime or lifetimes
in which you exercised poor judgment in moral, ethical, or religious
matters) come into play here. Thus, it is especially important
for you to maintain high standards while pursuing your aspirations.
Jupiter Square Neptune:
You are a visionary, a philanthropist,
an idealist whose imagination knows no bounds. You believe
in miracles, in the reality of the intangible realms, and you
KNOW that nothing is impossible. Because your higher centers
of intuition, spiritual vision, and openness to the divine are
very active, you accept and experience things many people would
think quite impossible.
When out of balance with this
energy (if, for instance, you are operating out of greed or neediness),
your imagination and expectations can be grandiose, impractical,
naive, and overblown. You may have difficulty accepting and working
within the limits of mundane reality, and with setting boundaries
in many areas of your life. Escapist fantasies, gambling
on highly speculative ventures that promise great gain with little
effort expended, or wandering far and wide without grounding
yourself anywhere are also tendencies when you are less emotionally
and spiritually mature. You will evolve as you choose to
discipline yourself and FOCUS your intent on real, concrete,
practical ways. You can bring your vision to earth.
Jupiter Quincunx Pluto:
Part of your life mission involves
learning how to generate and direct a great leap of material,
political, social or spiritual power. You have a gift for
spiritual or intellectual leadership. As an agent of transformation
in your world, you are intended to help regenerate social or
religious institutions and to effect profound change and growth
in the people around you. There are karmic pitfalls involved
in all of this, however. First, is the tendency to become infatuated
with power and/or inflated with a sense of your own greatness. Secondly,
conflicts with those in power may result in loss of social standing
or reputation. Pitting yourself against the big guys and
losing is always a risk you will have to take if you are to fulfill
your natural role and function. In past incarnations this
did in fact take place, perhaps leaving you now with a fear or
disregard of government, the church, or other great authorities.
Thus, you may have a struggle accepting your role as a leader
or teacher, and/or integrating with society as it currently exists.
Neptune is Retrograde:
The above is complicated by the
fact that you had a prior lifetime or lifetimes in which you
dissipated your energy, fell away from your disciplines, or were
too passive or irresolute to go after the spiritual opportunities
open to you at that time. This carries over as a vague yet persistent
inner nagging that you should be further on than you are, or
a fear of spiritual failure. You may also have been involved
in mystical or magical practices that created distortions in
your life. It is important for you to take a balanced,
patient, well-grounded attitude toward life - nothing too otherworldly,
ethereal, or glamorous. Indulging in any mood-altering substances
is particularly deleterious for you.
Chapter 6: Soft Aspects
The following is a description
of your GIFTS and STRENGTHS which can help you work with your
major life challenges. These are abilities and qualities of heart,
mind, and soul which are quite natural to you. You probably
take them for granted. Because these represent the lines of least
resistance for you, you may rely too much upon them at times;
hence, there are some cautions suggested. Still, these
are the areas where good flows into your life and/or where you
have considerable inner resources.
Sun Sextile Mars:
One of your strengths is your
high level of physical vitality and energy. You are an
ACTION person, a doer, a go-getter, and you can pack more activity
into a day than most people do in a week. You enjoy fighting
the good fight, taking on challenges with relish, and you are
inherently quite competitive but not in a way that provokes anger
or fierce opposition from others. Because in the past you
have succeeded in achieving your goals, you now have an inner
expectation of success and of being a winner, a natural self-confidence
that you draw on without even thinking about it. You have
developed many positive "masculine" qualities, such
as courage, will power and the ability to take initiative. You
tend to be a leader without having to struggle or coerce others
into accepting your authority. Occasionally, however, you
may overpower other people without realizing it, since they may
not have the energy resources that you do.
Mercury Trine Neptune:
An innate understanding of spiritual
and metaphysical principles, and a direct perception of the inner
world (via intuition, clairvoyance or clairaudience, etc.) enables
you to speak of or teach others these subjects. Your conscious
mind links easily and readily to other dimensions. This
is something you probably take for granted and it may happen
without any conscious effort or intent on your part. You
are like a "cosmic radio" and you may pick up certain
vibrations and the feelings of others without realizing you are
doing so. You also have a sensitive nervous system which
responds quickly to stimuli, so you require a harmonious atmosphere
in order to function at your best.
Your
psychic and/or musical, artistic, and poetic sensibilities
are pronounced due to prior development
in these arenas.
Venus Trine Pluto:
You are able to project love with
great depth and great feeling, and through your personal magnetism
and power of attraction (which is considerable) you can influence
others in a remarkable way. You instinctively know what
people need and want, and how to give it to them. You also
exude sexuality and affect people often without realizing it. Beware
of using "it" in a dishonorable way.
On another level, you are extremely
fortunate and resourceful financially. You have a way with
money and with developing and using all of the resources that
are available to you.
Also, your creativity and artistic
powers are unusual. You have a special giftedness combined
with a passion for beauty, and can craft some unusual, compellingly
attractive creations.
