PART ONE: THE INNER YOU
In Part One of the interpretations you will read two sections concerned with your individual traits.

The first section describes your ego (sun), emotional make-up (moon), learning and intellectual orientation (Mercury), relationships and sociability (Venus), and the expression and focus of your physical energy (Mars).

The second section describes how well you deal internally with the external situations that you experience in life. Your capacity for happiness (Jupiter), ability to tolerate restrictions and frustrations (Saturn), how you are associated with or relate to new or innovative ideas and methods, and radical ideas and events that upset the status quo (Uranus), how you are associated with or affected by public ideals, morality, and spirituality (Neptune), and how you are associated with or affected by public policies toward crime, toward the power of government and industry, and toward exploration, development, conservation and distribution of natural resources (Pluto).

SUN
The sun rules will power and ego. It is the core of your potential and uniqueness as an individual; who you are and what you are about. It represents the main direction and focus you want your life to take, and your determination to accomplish what you set out to do. It is your personal honesty and integrity, and the ability to command respect and authority, to impress and influence others.

SUN in TAURUS
As the second sign of the zodiac, Taurus represents the second stage in the evolution of man and his place in the universe. The first thing man uses are his physical senses. What he can see, touch, and physically hold represents the reality of his position. It is why the celestial heritage of Taureans is to conserve physical resources and possessively cling to people whom they regard as their own. Their strongest desire is for personal security. Broken promises or the betrayal of others are threats to this security. Their reaction to such personal affronts is likely to be bitter, and those who inflict such abuses will not be given another chance. Disappointed Taureans can behave in a manner totally against their own best interests. They may completely retreat from the world, or, go in the opposite direction and become promiscuous. Whatever direction is taken, they may end up sacrificing the meaningful, enduring relationships they really need to feel emotionally secure.

Taureans are stubborn and impervious to changes not of their own making. However, they are able to accomplish things in life because of their tenacity in sticking to projects in which others may have long since lost patience or stamina. The astrological symbol for Taurus is the Bull and indeed, the stubborn bullheaded nature of the Taurean personality can be extremely formidable to those who have the unfortunate experience of coming up against it. On the positive side, their quiet strength and determination inspires others to trust them. Because they dislike being unable to rely on others, they are usually very dependable themselves. Taureans are loving and patient when trying to accomplish what they think is worthwhile and when dealing with people they care about. As a rule, they do not enjoy surprises or spontaneous changes. They are far more comfortable when given sufficient time to prepare for things and allowed to follow their planned agenda.

Taureans react to what they experience by assessing its possible worth. That is, before they take physical action, before they sort out their emotional involvement, and before they reason it out intellectually, they ascertain what tangible advantages are to be gained from the experience. What appears too abstract or vague fails to attract more than their passing interest. They need a definite purpose in what they do and in relationships they form. Because they don't want to be unnecessarily burdened, they willingly rid themselves of worn out items, but only if they cannot find any other way to make use of them.

Venus, planet of beauty and pleasure, rules Taurus, which means that by nature, people born with Sun in Taurus are tactile and sensuous, seekers of personal comfort and physical pleasure. By design however, they are pragmatic with an appreciative eye for both monetary value as well as aesthetic beauty. They are lovers of nature and natural things. Their harmony in life is tied to reality and the material world, but sometimes they get carried away with personal acquisitions. When they go too far afield they tend to either accumulate wealth and never use it, or recklessly squander it without improving the quality or enjoyment of their lives. As a result of their addiction to personal pleasure and comfort, Taureans can be very lazy as well as very vulnerable to the unpleasant consequences that invariably result from overindulging in rich food and other physical pleasures. Their natural cautiousness saves them from making mistakes, but it can also prevent them from taking advantage of valuable opportunities.

As a rule, Taureans are physically strong and solidly built. Even those who are not fat, may be physically more dense per pound of body weight. Many of them favor weight lifting or other body-building routines as a way to keep in shape. They enjoy participating in sports that require strength and endurance. They usually like to putter around the garden, and readily engage in other outdoor activities such as picnics, hikes, and trips to botanical gardens or a zoo. They love music and art and may have considerable talent in these areas. They often have a pleasant speaking or singing voice. Though Taureans tend to be rather subdued, they have a lively sense of humor, and enjoy socializing.

Taurus colors are brown, russet, and turquoise. Vulnerable parts of the body are the neck, throat, shoulders, and upper torso. Stiff necks, sore throats, and earaches are common Taurean complaints. The emerald, a variety of the mineral beryl and as costly as a diamond, is the Taurus birthstone. The emerald's rich green color is suitably Taurean since it is the color of money, green pastures, and serenity. The emerald has a six-sided geometric form. Six is the number assigned to Venus which in turn, is the planetary ruler of Taurus. Flowers for Taurus are the rose (red), daisy, lily, and daffodil.

MOON
The moon rules desire as opposed to ego, need as opposed to expediency or reason. It describes how you feel about yourself, how you handle relationships, and how you emotionally respond to situations and experiences. It describes the flow of your daily functions; physical, emotional, and mental. The moon represents your residence and domestic environment. It rules babies and young children, your mother and other important females in your life.

MOON in LEO
Those born with the moon in a Fire sign want to turn their feelings into physical experiences. They do not initially view their desires from the standpoint of practicality, emotional commitment, or as lessons to be learned. Before anything else there has to be action, some form of instant physical gratification. As lunar Fire sign personalities, those with moon in Leo are magnanimous and passionate in the expression of their feelings. Unfortunately, Leo's tendency for exaggeration can lead to being what others may consider insincere. The excitement of a particular moment may cause them to sincerely and passionately say or do things that, unfortunately, may later be forgotten. Pride is their emotional downfall. They cannot separate emotions from ego. It is ego that prompts them to consciously or subconsciously dominate emotional relationships. Others can elicit their cooperation or obtain their positive response by applying subtle flattery, but absolutely nothing will be gained by backing them up against the wall and wounding their pride.

Leo moon personalities can be extremely stubborn. They have purpose, determination, and tenacity when it comes to getting what they want. Strongly idealistic, they are capable of great personal sacrifice for causes in which they passionately believe. Even when presented with irrefutable evidence that their idealism or loyalty has been misguided, they may find it difficult to move on. They are very assertive when it comes to protecting not only their own freedom but also the rights and freedom of others. They have a jealous nature, though they are not particularly possessive. When a romance ends, they are more apt to suffer from a wounded ego than a broken heart. They are likely to have artistic talent, or at least great interest in art, architecture, and design.

Women with Leo moon are forceful, materialistic, and preoccupied with status. However, they are also able to accept responsibilities as a matter of honor, and behave with exceptional grace and dignity in the face of insult and adversity. Men with Leo moon can be braggarts who always want the last word. They have endless schemes and grandiose plans as they seek all the good things in life. When good fortune does come their way, they are usually very generous in sharing it with others.

MERCURY
Mercury indicates mental outlook, intellectual endeavors, the way you think and communicate. It represents ideas, methods, and information. It rules your hands and thus your manual dexterity and mechanical skills. Mercury also describes transportation; that is, how you get where you're going physically and mentally. Do you speed with all possible haste or amble along taking a few detours here and there?

MERCURY in TAURUS
Individuals with Mercury in Taurus don't usually jump to conclusions or easily accept new ideas. Their thinking is structured and conservative, but their ideas are likely to be practical and constructive. If they believe an idea or method has no value, they abandon it for more useful endeavors. The stubborn nature of Taurus implies an ability in these individuals to develop great powers of concentration. However, unless they accept the need to learn in the first place, they obstinately refuse to concentrate or be taught. Their most productive approach to learning is through practical application. Once they see the practicality of something, they are motivated to learn the theory behind it. When it comes to the matter of learning and transportation they don't care to waste too much time. However, haste in getting where they are going is not as much of a goal as being able to take the most direct route.

VENUS
Venus rules your social attitudes and behavior, and your aesthetic tastes and inclinations. It is female relationships and social interactions at every level. Venus indicates your values. It describes romance, marriage and other partnerships, capacity for humor, and the pursuit of pleasure.

VENUS in GEMINI
Individuals with natal Venus in Gemini are some of the most accomplished flirts in the zodiac. It would be a mistake to accuse them of being emotionally shallow because other factors can more accurately account for the depth of their emotional commitment. However, in purely social situations, these individuals are remarkably adept. The influence of Gemini indicates their physical pleasure in relationships is never as great as the intellectual stimulation derived from them. Excellent speakers and ad-libbers, their social instincts are more geared to sharing ideas and picking up all kinds of interesting information than intense physical or emotional encounters. They find inspiration in maintaining a wide variety of relationships with people from different backgrounds and experiences.

MARS
Mars rules physical energy and efforts. It describes the strength and direction of the physical force that drives your ego, fires your emotions, and encourages your mental endeavors and communicative skills. It describes male relationships and associations, risk-taking inclinations, and the physical challenges you are likely to encounter.

MARS in PISCES
The energy of those with Mars in Pisces is highly influenced by their emotional state and, too often, at the mercy of the environment in which they operate. They can easily be inspired as well as inspiring, and many possess outstanding creative and artistic talent. Their instinctive reactions are keen, as is their power of turning abstract concepts into reality. The problem they invariably face is that they find it difficult to accomplish things either because they are too lazy, or lack the necessary confidence to act. As a result, they can waste their talents and skills for want of a good push to get started. Many develop an inner strength that is remarkable. As if to confront potential physical weakness, they engage in high-risk activities.

JUPITER
Jupiter rules your potential for growth and expansion on many levels; physical, intellectual, spiritual, cultural, and the accumulation of material assets, power, and status. It describes your optimism and aspirations. It represents your father and his position in society.

JUPITER in SCORPIO
Individuals with natal Jupiter in Scorpio have intense emotional desires and interests. Their capacity for growth and expansion is on an emotional level. Unfortunately, with Scorpio there is also a tendency for manipulation and they may engage in this practice without fully realizing its destructive potential. As Jupiter's zeal overwhelms the reasonableness of moderation, they can lapse into fanaticism. These individuals are often remarkable in their ability to understand nature and its elementary forces. Many are gourmets as well as gourmands.

SATURN
Saturn rules responsibilities, restrictions and limitations you are apt to encounter, and the lessons you must learn in life. It does not deny or diminish imagination, inspiration, spirituality, and good fortune but it does demand that these things be given structure and meaning.

SATURN in TAURUS
Individuals with natal Saturn in Taurus find it difficult to do something for nothing. They need tangible thanks and appreciation. They have to measure themselves; who they are, what they do, and what they have in relation to the rest of the world. One way or another life presents them with situations in which they regret that a more spiritual or philosophical approach was not or could not be used in measuring their own worth or the relative worth of others.

URANUS
Uranus rules personal as well as societal freedom. It indicates originality of thought and expression. In society it rules radical ideas and people as well as revolutionary events that upset established structures. Uranus takes approximately seven years to transit one sign, taking about 84 years to complete all twelve signs. Since groups of people with Uranus in the same sign are separated by 84 years, the influence of this planet in a sign is generational. The personal implications of Uranus in your life are described by its house position and the aspects it makes with other planets in your natal chart. It describes areas of unpredictability, and where you or your life style may be different than those around you. It relates to the unusual or unique. Friends and associations to which you belong are also indicated, as is your potential involvement with science and technology, computers, and the media.

URANUS in CAPRICORN
The generation of individuals born with natal Uranus in Capricorn confront revolutionary changes in traditional institutions and political ideologies, as well as major changes in business and industry. Other factors will determine how far-reaching these changes will be, but these individuals seek to reorganize in order to improve efficiency. They get rid of what is wasteful or mismanaged.

NEPTUNE
Neptune rules those who are oppressed or abandoned; the misfits of society. On a higher level it rules visionaries, and those who are glamorous and charismatic. It represents spirituality, mysticism, and ideals. Neptune is in one sign for approximately thirteen years, taking about 164 years to complete its cycle through all twelve signs. Since 164 years separate people born during its transit of one sign and those born when it returns, Neptune's significance in any sign is described as generational or historical. On a personal level, Neptune's house position and the aspects it makes with other planets in your natal chart will describe spirituality, abstract thinking, illusion, disillusionment, and other areas of your life where things aren't always what they seem. It rules derangement, guilt, persecution, and describes the potential for experiences related to confinement, abandonment, and addiction or physical intolerance to drugs.

NEPTUNE in CANCER
The most recent period of Neptune in Cancer was 1901-1916 and there are many Cancerian associations with this period. For example, Cancer rules the stomach and food in general. In 1901 a deranged anarchist shot President McKinley in the stomach. In 1909 the portly 300-pound William Taft was inaugurated. During this period the United States Congress passed the Meat Inspection Act and the Pure Food and Drug Act.

PLUTO
Pluto takes approximately 248 years to make one cycle through all twelve signs. The period Pluto spends in each sign can vary from twelve years to thirty two years due to the eccentricity of its orbit. Like atomic energy (a force ruled by Pluto), the presence and direction of Pluto's energy are never obvious until it is used. Pluto's influence in any sign is interpreted as generational or historical. In your personal life, Pluto's significance is interpreted from its house position and the aspects it makes to other natal planets in your horoscope. Pluto rules intense energy, and describes the areas in which you consciously or subconsciously seek to exercise power or control. Pluto is also linked to your karmic responsibility, and in this respect, it describes the areas where you must gain the deepest level of understanding.

PLUTO in GEMINI
Pluto's last period in Gemini was 1882-1912. Gemini rules communication and transportation. During Pluto's transit there were fantastic achievements in these areas. The first subway was built in London, the first automatic telephone switchboard was introduced, Marconi invented radio telegraphy, and Zeppelin built his airship.

PART TWO: THE OUTER YOU
In Part Two you will read about the twelve houses of the horoscope. The houses represent areas of life in which you operate on a daily basis. You will read descriptions of how you handle the circumstances you encounter in each of these areas, according to your nature, personality and other traits as they are outlined in Part One.

HOUSE 1
The first house and the sign that rules the first house, which is also known as the Ascendant or Rising sign, describes your outer personality and physical attributes. To some extent it also describes your health and the type of illnesses you may experience.

SAGITTARIUS ASCENDANT
A Sagittarius Ascendant indicates individuals with a certain type of flexible personality that works well for them. Because of their need for independence and freedom, they are apt to constantly put themselves in changing circumstances and different environments. Such changes would, in turn, require a certain amount of adaptability. Many of these individuals put marriage off until later in life or skip it altogether unless they find understanding partners who do not attempt to be possessive or confine them. Once such an acceptable marriage arrangement is made however, they adapt and are stable, loyal spouses.

They are full of energetic enthusiasm. However, their enthusiasm is not necessarily always accompanied by unflagging physical energy. They may, in fact, tend to be lazy unless highly motivated to perform. It is often difficult to engage in boring routine exercise and in spite of their innate restlessness and propensity for rushing around in a myriad of activities, they are quite capable of being unwilling (or unable) to keep themselves trim and in good physical shape. Though often rash and hasty their passions are sincere and inspirational.

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, planet of inspiration, wisdom, good fortune, and abundance. These individuals are apt to be spiritually or philosophically oriented, talkative, intellectually curious, and, at times, perhaps a bit too impressed with status and wealth. Their natural exuberance and generosity are responsible for unrestrained abundance. Like those with Gemini Ascendants, they are apt to demonstrate any one of a wide range of orientations and abilities, from being great teachers, writers, scholars or researchers all the way down to those who engage in the flimflam of con artists and the intellectual emptiness of merely copying the originality and talent of others.

They are apt to be very honest, though it is also true that their too-candid remarks can sometimes be misinterpreted as rudeness. The negative influences associated with Sagittarius Ascendant indicate the possibility of those afflicted with a tendency for self-indulgence which makes them pompous, grossly overweight, dependent on drugs or alcohol, or too opinionated and cynical. On the positive side, Sagittarius indicates love of drama and the theater, good food and drink, dancing, sports, animals, and, as a rule, they never miss an opportunity to travel. They are likely to be involved with publishing, education, religion, art, or music, either as a profession or hobby.

HOUSE 2
The second house describes material assets, how you handle monetary income, and the potential ways it may be earned. It also indicates the values and priorities you establish throughout life.

CAPRICORN on 2nd HOUSE
Capricorn ruling the second house is not an indication of great wealth nor does it imply a lack of wealth. It indicates individuals whose material assets, values and priorities are likely to be a constant source of concern. However, worry over money may be what motivates them to acquire enough income that poverty never becomes a reality. There is also potential that some of these individuals will rebel against monetary restrictions, and, valuing the pleasures of life more than security, they waste their resources. Even in those who are miserly, or at least very conservative about spending money, there are conflicting patterns of behavior to which they may fall victim. Appropriate to the old adage of being "penny wise and pound foolish, " they can be foolishly extravagant when it was unnecessary and excessively prudent when a more generous attitude would have been wise. This behavior applies to more than just money. Their biggest fear, for example, may be that others will take advantage of their time and talents. Establishing the correct values and priorities, and reacting to monetary advantages, or disadvantages, as the case may be, are life's biggest challenges.

URANUS in 2nd HOUSE
Uranus in the second house indicates those whose material assets are vulnerable to sudden change. This implies the improvement of monetary circumstances for those with little wealth, and the danger of loss for those with many assets. Their attitude toward spending can vary considerably from one time to the next. Unlikely to be dedicated to earning money for its own sake, they are more interested in the personal freedom that money can buy. Their income may be related to a fraternal organization, or earned through the help and influence of friends. Their livelihood may come from an unorthodox or unusual line of work, or through more mundane areas that involve computers, research and development, antiques, international finance, medicine, television, or social work. Other potentials for Uranus in the second house include those whose priorities and values are unorthodox or radical, and those whose established values and priorities are altered by an unexpected event or change in their life. Among the things these individuals value the most are freedom and friendship.

MARS in 2nd HOUSE
Mars in the second house indicates those who exert more energy and enthusiasm in what they do to earn money than in the actual pursuit of money for its own sake. They are apt to be more enthusiastic spenders than savers. If they do develop the love of wealth for its own sake, they can become so passionately dedicated to the accumulation of money, they never stop to spend it or enjoy any of the advantages it can provide. The influence of Mars in the second house suggests that assets may come through men or a particular male influence. Income for these individuals may also be derived through Mars-ruled enterprises such as manufacturing, sports, armed forces, fire fighting, and physical labor rather than mental endeavors. Mars represents animated life. Whether or not they are conscious of it, these individuals value energy and vitality as desirable assets and are attracted to these qualities in others. Unless others factors in their personality subdue the restless influence of Mars, they find it difficult to enjoy doing absolutely nothing. They want to spend their energies as easily as they spend their money.

MARS trine JUPITER
Mars trine Jupiter indicates those with the capacity to enjoy the good life. They are lucky whether or not they deserve it; enjoying what some refer to as blind luck. They may not be physically lazy but are often given an easy way out of things. If they are not wealthy, they often manage to be taken care of by those with more means. Sharp wit and being around when good things happen is how these individuals progress in status or career.

MARS sextile SATURN
Mars sextile Saturn indicates those with a good sense of timing. They often know exactly when to act, or in some cases, when not to act. They are apt to receive opportunities to get ahead in business, construction, real estate, management, banking, or property management and development. They are good at aggressively planning and promoting their own interests as well as others. Those with organizational skills are excellent administrators, instructors and trainers.

HOUSE 3
The third house describes your mental state, intellectual orientation, self-expression and communication, early education, mechanical dexterity and skills, immediate environment (neighborhood), and siblings. It indicates physical actions, and transportation, especially within your immediate environment. To a certain extent the third house also describes the job or health of your father.

PISCES on 3rd HOUSE
Pisces ruling the third house indicates those with developed intuitions and special interest in spiritual matters and occult subjects. They are apt to have high intelligence but also mental laziness, an unwillingness to explore areas of thought that appear to be too much work. A parent, in most cases the father, is apt to be employed in fishing or maritime industries, chemistry, photography, medicine (especially homeopathy, podiatry, or cosmetic surgery), psychology, areas involving feet which could mean working in a shoe store to being a dancer, or areas that involve minority groups, the disabled or institutionalized. He may suffer hypochondria, mental confusion, or hard to diagnose illness. Pisces ruling the third house may also mean individuals who are particularly sensitive even clairvoyant with siblings. There is also the possibility of loss of siblings, or siblings with drug dependencies. Illegal drugs may be used or sold by neighbors. There can be mental confusion, and it helps if these individuals spend a certain amount of time alone or in quiet environments, especially near the ocean. They like to use a pet name or alias, and (unless they develop a fear of water) enjoy travel by boat.

HOUSE 4
The fourth house describes your residence, domestic environment, and family members, especially your mother. It indicates the beginning as well as the end of various cycles in your life.

ARIES on 4th HOUSE
Aries ruling the fourth house indicates individuals whose energy and vitality are primarily linked to family or to some aspect of home or domestic life. This description can have a wide range of potential outcomes. It may indicate for instance, that their occupations involve real estate, interior design, architecture, or family counseling, or, that their business is operated in their homes. The Aries influence in the case of some of these individuals, may also mean fear of their parents or that one of their parents, most likely the mother, may be domineering. There is also the negative possibility of a volatile, sometimes violent domestic life. Fire is also a potential hazard. On the positive side, the Aries influence implies very active domestic lifestyles, and that their homes are likely to be designed or decorated with a distinctly masculine orientation. If given the opportunity, they will want to build their own homes. They may be the first ones to live in a particular area, perhaps as an unconscious reflection of the pioneering spirit associated with the Aries influence on their fourth house.

SATURN in 4th HOUSE
Saturn in the fourth house can mean those who are deprived of a parent early in life. It also suggests austerity and strictness that may apply to the personality of one or both parents, to the emotional content of their home, or to physical aspects of their surroundings. Whatever their actual childhood circumstance or family history may be, these individuals harbor great concerns about it. As adults they may be strict and inflexible in their own domestic environment, or be so negative as to dismiss any notion of establishing a home or family. Saturn's positive influence includes those who enjoy very stable family relationships. It also indicates those who live their entire life in the same house or hometown. The negative potential includes those who are homebound, unable through illness or disease to leave their residence. How these individuals learn to handle any hardships related to home and family is an important key to their happiness and success.

HOUSE 5
The fifth house describes your creative talent and imaginative powers, capacity for enjoyment and the pursuit of pleasure, romance, children, and speculative ventures.

TAURUS on 5th HOUSE
Taurus ruling the fifth house indicates individuals with potential for raising the pursuit of pleasure to a fine art. They are apt to have merry, sociable and generous natures, with the capacity to genuinely enjoy the physical pleasures life has to offer. They may be just plain lucky as well. They may, for example, be very obese but dress with such good taste they manage to look good anyway, or they are able to move gracefully despite their size. They are apt to have such wonderful manners and personal charm others don't notice or become offended if they happen to overindulge themselves. They may be the world's great lovers and their conquests don't seem to mind being only one in a long line of romantic partners. A fifth house Taurean influence indicates artistic creativity and many of them are talented stage or costume designers, musicians, artists, writers or illustrators. They are likely to have wonderful rapport with children, understanding what activities will amuse and entertain them. Negative potentials for Taurus on the fifth house include individuals with problems concerning children or romance, or who have bad luck in speculative ventures.

MERCURY in 5th HOUSE
Mercury in the fifth house indicates those who identify creative talent with intellectual skill. They are likely to possess talent for writing, acting, or the ability to impersonate others. Though not above taking a chance on one throw of the dice, they are just as apt to enjoy learning the real mechanics of gambling or trading stocks and commodities. They may even devise unique systems of their own for gambling and other speculative ventures. They are most likely to be romantically attracted to those with intellectual ability. Romance may bloom in their own neighborhood or they may be introduced to a romantic partner through their siblings. Mercury's influence in the fifth house suggests fickleness and the tendency to indulge in more than one romance at a time. It is also an indication they can be overly critical of a romantic partner or romance in general. They take pride in children's intellectual accomplishments and enjoy helping them with their studies, which is also the reason many of these individuals are excellent teachers.

MERCURY opposite JUPITER
Mercury opposite Jupiter is by no means an indication of lack of intelligence. On the contrary, these individuals are apt to be exceptionally bright. However, Jupiter's involvement implies the tendency to collect knowledge to the point of dilettantism. The practical side of things is often left out of their thoughts. Intellectual snobbery is a temptation they can hardly resist, but they have an otherwise generous nature when it comes to sharing information and ideas. Inclination to pay attention to details is often totally absent but they can see and understand the big picture.

MERCURY conjunct SATURN
Mercury conjunct Saturn indicates those who may be too formal and structured in their thinking to give credence to possibilities that don't fit their preconceived ideas or plans. They are ambitious and want their ideas to be looked upon as authoritative. Most of them have very little disposition for engaging in tact or idle flattery, or perhaps in some individuals, it is lack of understanding of how to go about more personal and seductive ways of communication.

SUN in 5th HOUSE
While it does not necessarily mean unbridled hedonism, those with natal Sun in the fifth house have enhanced appetite for pleasurable activities. They may find it difficult to attain certain levels of maturity. To attain it, some will repress their desire for even modest pleasures. Their personal identification is strongly tied to artistic or creative talents, children, romantic associations, and social life. There is danger that in order to impress and indulge others, they will waste talent and resources on luxuries and entertainment. They are romantic and humanitarian, vital if not always strong, and noble if not always wise.

SUN square MOON
Sun square Moon indicates those more capable than most in finding situations and relationships in which they are egotistically satisfied as well as emotionally fulfilled. However, for such relationships to be successful they will nevertheless have to make some inner adjustments of one kind or another. They nearly always succeed once they have learned that the key to most things they want lies in their willingness to give up one thing in order to get another.

SUN conjunct MERCURY
These individuals are apt to be very subjective in their opinions and ideas. Unless they make concerted efforts, their receptiveness to learning is going to stay primarily limited to their self-interests, which in turn limits their growth and progress as individuals. It is hard to separate their own ideas from others since consciously or subconsciously their egos have a tendency to appropriate everything. If natal Mercury is in a different sign than natal Sun, there is less chance of ego involvement and more mental receptiveness.

SUN sextile MARS
Sun sextile Mars indicates those likely to be quick to take advantage of opportunities that come their way, and not so narrow as to limit themselves to taking only those that seem to promise some obvious advantage. Their energetic response is to eagerly grab all opportunities that arouse them emotionally, mentally, or physically.

SUN opposite JUPITER
Sun opposite Jupiter indicates individuals who either promise more than is possible, or are victims of others who do this to them; situations that lead to disappointment and failed relationships until they gain maturity and experience to help lessen the potential. If they cannot avoid the tendency to set unattainable goals, they end up accomplishing nothing. Overestimation, overindulgence and exaggeration are the inherent traps associated with this aspect.

SUN conjunct SATURN
Inhibitions these individuals feel as adults are likely to have been caused by austere or restricted childhoods. Whether they end up liking it or not, accepting it or rebelling against it, their success in life requires tradition and structure. They are usually very ambitious and strive for positions of authority. There is too much worry in some of these individuals, and they tend to be sober and inflexible, always sticking rigorously to the rules. It may be easier for them to accept the difficulties in life than to just relax and enjoy things, without constantly looking over their shoulders for trouble. On the positive side this aspect also signifies those of great character and strength, the people whom others come to admire and trust.

SUN sextile NEPTUNE
Sun sextile Neptune suggests those who are apt to have highly developed intuition when it comes to taking advantage of opportunities. However, they can be guilty of letting lack of ambition or laziness prevent them from exploiting their advantages. Many opportunities that come their way represent the chance to gain spiritual or artistic growth.

HOUSE 6
The sixth house describes your job, daily responsibilities (paid and unpaid), and those who work for or with you. It also represents your health, and physical fitness.

GEMINI on 6th HOUSE
Gemini ruling the sixth house indicates individuals who tend to keep very busy whether they have a job or work in the home. However, it doesn't mean they always accomplish their tasks. They can, for example, become involved with too many projects at one time and never quite get any of them finished. Or they may be preoccupied with unnecessary details or needless tasks they are convinced need doing. They enjoy work that involves a wide variety of tasks and frequent change of schedule or change of scene. The influence of Gemini also implies they may have more than one job at a time. It also suggests individuals who work as librarians, writers, researchers, teachers, trainers, physical fitness experts, or who work in communication, sales, or with computers. They may work or have interest in geography, geology, weather, stamp collecting, and travel. Whatever their job happens to be, they can usually be depended on to generate a lot of paperwork, reports, memos, and lists.

HOUSE 7
The seventh house relates to marriage and partnership or joint ventures of any kind. It describes how you interact with people and how others tend to regard you. The seventh house is associated with legal matters, negotiations, contracts, and all open confrontations, pleasant as well as adversarial.

GEMINI on 7th HOUSE
Gemini ruling the seventh house indicates individuals who are concerned with partnerships, contracts, public relations, and the law. They may end up in partnership with their siblings, or aunts and uncles on their mother's side of the family. They are also apt to have several partnerships concerning different enterprises, including the distinct possibility of more than one marriage. Because they are often unwilling to give up their freedom or fail to find a partner sympathetic to this need, they may not marry at all. If they marry more than once, they will probably manage to separate these events, but bigamy is not out of the range of possibilities. They can get into long conversations with practically everyone they meet including total strangers. They are always interested in knowing everyone else's business, and can be guilty of engaging in too much small talk or gossip. Many of these individuals possess excellent memories for names, faces, and facts about other people. Their marriage or business partners are apt to be involved in teaching, writing, publishing, or work in advertising or communications.

VENUS in 7th HOUSE
Venus in the seventh house indicates outgoing, people-oriented individuals who are diplomatic, charming, and polite to everyone they meet. Without constant exposure to other people, these individuals can become withdrawn and unmotivated, because consciously or subconsciously, they depend on such interactions for inspiration and feedback. However needful they may be for the company of others, it usually has to be on a one-to-one basis, since many of these individuals dislike waiting in line and hate to get caught in crowds. They have the capacity to derive much pleasure and enjoyment from marriage, though the mere presence of Venus in the seventh house is no guarantee of wedded bliss. Whether or not they are married, these individuals are likely to achieve some of their greatest successes through partnerships and cooperative efforts of one kind or another. The negative potential includes difficulty in finding the right partner, and lack ability to cooperate or get along with others.

VENUS conjunct PLUTO
Venus conjunct Pluto implies those with strong, passionate natures that can sometimes be too intense for those on whom they focus it. Jealousy and possessiveness can also creep into romantic relationships. However some of these problems can be avoided by those who learn to sublimate emotional drives into creative projects or other worthy endeavors. Consciously or subconsciously these individuals seek to control relationships.

PLUTO in 7th HOUSE
Pluto in the seventh house indicates those who feel compelled to control and manipulate relationships. If they happen to have an aggressive nature, they are compelled to interfere with other peoples' relationships as well as their own, not always with happy results. The negative potential includes those who are victims of manipulation by others including their marriage partner. Pluto's influence in the seventh house suggests individuals who consciously or subconsciously want to gain the first advantage where other people are concerned. They do not have a strong sense of cooperation or fair play unless factors in their personality or background encourage them to develop a more even-handed approach in dealing with others. Pluto does, however, imply justice in the form of eventual retribution. Sooner or later, they are likely to get what they deserve, both good and bad. Whether or not they make a conscious effort to do so, they attract people who are intellectually superior or who have more power or status than themselves. Other potentials include those for whom marriage becomes a continual contest of wills, and joint ventures or other cooperative efforts turn into power struggles.

NEPTUNE in 7th HOUSE
Neptune in the seventh house indicates those who may have a hard time being understood by their marriage or business partner, by those with whom they share joint ventures or cooperative efforts, and by other people in general. Whether or not they intentionally project such images, something about them may seem glamorous, illusive, or mysterious to others. They can unwittingly arouse feelings of fear or jealousy. However, they are also able to establish highly sensitive or spiritual relationships. Their true personality and their physical appearance are apt to be difficult for others to clearly recognize or accurately describe. On the other hand, these individuals may find it difficult to recall names or appearances of people they meet briefly, and even those they may have met several times. The negative potentials include the possibility of those who experience untimely loss of a partner, or those whose marriage partner is emotionally disturbed, disabled, from a minority group, or addicted to habit-forming substances. There is potential for deception or unrealistic expectations in partnership, though there is no certainty about which partner is at fault in this respect. Neptune's influence also suggests a marriage partner with highly developed intuition or psychic ability, or who possesses considerable artistic sensitivity or talent. Certain elements of illusion, confusion or mystery are likely to be associated with marriage or partnership.

HOUSE 8
The eighth house is related to taxes, debt, death, legacies, and the income you receive through marriage or business partner(s). It describes your resourcefulness, and your ability to develop and use material assets as well as personal skills and abilities. The eighth house also indicates sexual attitudes and behavior.

CANCER on 8th HOUSE
Cancer ruling the eighth house indicates individuals who know exactly what they want and will go about satisfying their desires with remarkable tenaciousness. They are not likely to be glib or open about emotional needs, though when they are sure a particular situation is well in hand, they can be brutally frank and explicit about what they want. Others may find it difficult to fathom their true emotions, especially since they can appear to be emotionally satisfied even when they are not. They are apt to have instinctual responses and may come to rely on their intuition in handling finances and other resources. They may be attracted to mysteries, the occult, and the arcane. Though the Cancerian influence on the eighth house suggests the strong possibility of inheritance, it is just as strongly evident that their family and family connections may be among their most valuable resources. They are very vulnerable in matters of sex and romance, but there is potential for great strength as well as selfishness, so in many cases, they give as good as they get.

MOON in 8th HOUSE
Moon in the eighth house indicates those who know exactly what they want, and go about satisfying their desires with remarkable tenacity. They are not apt to be glib or open concerning their emotional needs until what they want is in front of them, and then they may become very frank and explicit in expressing themselves. Others may find it difficult to fathom their true feelings because they so often appear emotionally self-contained or satisfied even when they are not. If supported by other factors in their personality and background, they are capable of being excellent researchers and investigators. They can be very competitive on an emotional level which allows jealousy and possessiveness to creep into their relationships. These individuals may have some special emotional involvement with legacies or concern with death. The income of marriage partners may be derived from family trusts, or from work in areas related to women, children, homes, food, nursing, and family.

MOON square MERCURY
Moon square Mercury does not indicate lack of intelligence in these individuals, but, rather, it implies obstacles thrown in the path of their attempts to learn or to communicate. Obstacles such as impatience, poor memory, learning disability or physical impediments. Whatever problems they face, the energy of their frustrations is often what they use to succeed in overcoming them and a great many other things as well.

MOON sextile VENUS
Moon sextile Venus is largely an aspect indicating an opportunist approach to interactions with others. These individuals do not necessarily establish relationships and social contacts with the sole intention of gaining advantages, but as things usually turn out, they end up being able to make use of the connections they make. However, there is enough generosity, wit and charm in their personalities that others don't seem to mind helping or being used by them no matter what their motives.

HOUSE 9
The ninth house describes higher education, advanced training, publishing, publicity, advertising, politics, foreign travel, foreign studies, religious and philosophical views and activities, and cultural pursuits. It relates to court decisions, a second marriage, and in-laws. To a certain extent the ninth house also describes the job or health of your mother.

VIRGO on 9th HOUSE
Virgo ruling the ninth house indicates those concerned with higher education, philosophy, religion, art, and foreign cultures. It is also an indication of desire to travel to foreign countries, being educated or trained in a foreign country, and earning advanced degrees in more than one subject. Their mothers may be teachers, writers, or work with unions, the handicapped, sick, or minority groups. These individuals are apt to write, or work in publishing, advertising, sales, diplomacy, the judicial system, anthropology, travel, teaching, or politics. The negative potential includes the possibility of lacking the means with which to pursue advanced degrees, lack of ability or patience to pursue education, faulty memory, trouble with in-laws, and limited mechanical ability. It can also mean individuals guilty of sermonizing, demagoguery, or moral righteousness. There is however, sure to be a measure of intellectual curiosity, and even if they are prone more to gossip than study, they may still be clever enough to learn what they need or want to know.

HOUSE 10
The tenth house describes your career and other long-range goals, public reputation, superiors and those in authority. It also relates to your father and his influence in your life.

LIBRA on 10th HOUSE
Libra ruling the tenth house indicates individuals who attract attention because of their physical appearance, artistic talent, position in society, or simply because they enjoy being in the spotlight. The influence of Libra on the tenth house is an indication of the need for these individuals to strike a balance between home and family and their careers or long range goals. Their destiny is to have both of those directions satisfied and equally represented in order to achieve true happiness and success. It doesn't mean they have to have a career but in addition to family responsibilities, they must establish (and achieve) personal goals that help them realize their potential as individuals. The reverse is also true, their careers or personal goals must not be accomplished at the expense of family relationships. The negative potential can mean difficult and antisocial relationships with parents (most likely the father) as well as with supervisors or other authority figures in general.

JUPITER in 10th HOUSE
Jupiter in the tenth house indicates those who consciously or subconsciously seek a public forum to exhibit their intellectual skills, artistic talent, or specialized training. What they know or what they do must be transmitted to others and so they seek work and activities that put them directly in touch with the public. Jupiter's influence suggests special interest or a career in such areas as promotion, entertainment, politics, art, sales, broadcasting, education, or religion. These individuals may effortlessly attract the attention of those with power and influence, and just as effortlessly achieve such positions themselves. Jupiter's influence suggests the potential for their father to have wealth, honor and status, and, that he is a generous parent who broadens their intellectual horizon, and gives them valuable assistance and advice. The negative potential includes difficulty or loss related to their father, restrictions imposed by superiors, and frustration or delay in attaining promotions or other personal goals. It can also mean individuals who are put in situations for which they are not adequately prepared, or for which they lack the necessary skills.

JUPITER opposite SATURN
Jupiter opposite Saturn implies difficult times but it is a generational aspect. Society is continually presented with alternate situations in which there is either too much or too little, feast or famine, as the saying goes. There seems no middle ground and no way to escape this influence other than acceptance and dealing with it in the best way possible. Those with wisdom and fortitude use the seasons of plenty to save for the seasons of deprivation.

HOUSE 11
The eleventh house rules friendships, organizations to which you belong, and income derived from self-employment or career (as opposed to wages earned from a job). It relates to the role you play in the lives of others as child, parent, lover, spouse, friend, social or business associate. The eleventh house also describes your hopes and aspirations and capacity for happiness.

SCORPIO on 11th HOUSE
Scorpio ruling the eleventh house indicates individuals who are likely to find that one of their central themes in life is a constant analysis and re-analysis of exactly what makes them happy. To accommodate what may be intense desire to find true happiness, they may attempt completely new beginnings by making new friends in a new environment, or establish friendships solely to improve their social status or to gain some other material advantage. Scorpio's influence indicates potential for these individuals to regard their friends and memberships in certain organizations as valuable personal resources that give them a more powerful personal image. Another strong possibility that occurs under Scorpio's influence, especially in those with more aggressive personalities, is the conscious or subconscious need to manipulate and control organizations to which they belong, as well as their friendships. Those with rather shy or more vulnerable natures may be the victims, and it is they who are manipulated or taken advantage of. Whether by choice or circumstance there is secrecy or mystery connected with friendships and/or organizations to which they belong.

HOUSE 12
The twelfth house describes the private and hidden side of life; your subconscious mind, dreams, the past, and those who wish you harm or work against your interests. The twelfth house relates to sorrow, disappointment, loss, solitude or confinement, hidden fears and worry. It also has connection with the job or health of your marriage or business partner.

SAGITTARIUS on 12th HOUSE
Sagittarius ruling the twelfth house indicates those with a remarkable inability to worry. It isn't that they don't worry at all, but they seem to have a sixth sense that everything will turn out for the best. In fact in some cases, they may never even get that far; they just go ahead and take a chance on situations others would never dare attempt. Sagittarius is expansive thinking and the twelfth house does not present a clear sense of reality. This can mean individuals who are never quite certain of their own limitations, and what is possible and what is not possible. Sagittarius indicates help from unknown or unexpected sources, though it also implies they may receive help through their marriage partners. They are apt to be interested in studying occult subjects and subconscious levels of existence, and many of these individuals have highly developed instincts or intuition. There is also the potential for great spirituality. On a mundane level it can mean a special fondness for gambling, horses, the theater, art, and dancing.
