Important Features
Moon in Gemini (10° Gem 33' 42") Moon in the Twelfth House Ruler of rising sign
The Moon in Gemini gives an active mentality, with perhaps a tendency to be nervous and high-strung. There is likely to be a glibness of tongue and a love of chatter with this position. You must beware of superficiality. Since the Moon represents childhood experiences, possibly there were two sides to your early life. You are shrewd and versatile, but you can be overly critical at times. You can also be hard on yourself. You like to express your opinion, and tend to react to situations with thinking, rather than with direct action.
The Moon in the Twelfth House represents an emotional sensitivity in subconscious realms. You enjoy mystery. You are in tune with the subconscious realms that others cannot perceive. You may become overly sensitive to other people's feelings and instinctual emotions. At times you may feel the need to keep secrets and to not share your private feelings and emotions. You may be quite sensitive at various times or feel a need to escape from your intense inner awareness for brief periods. You can also live in an inner world of vivid imagination. You can be quite creative. You may be restless, shy, or moody. You may prefer to work alone in secluded and isolated ways. You can be self-sacrificing if you become overly emotionally involved with those around you. You can be of service to those who are not as in tune and aware of themselves. You need to take time alone and isolate yourself to recharge your emotional energy.
Saturn in Virgo (5° Vir 26') Saturn in the Third House
Saturn in the Third House (or sign) gives a profound mentality, deepening and concentrating the mind and the powers of speech and communication. You are shrewd in business, and are adaptable to a variety of professions. Long hours of concentration can produce a brilliant scholar. You should beware of weakness in the lungs, or a tendency for nervous disorders. You may have subconscious fears of inadequacy in mental pursuits, or a sense of isolation and loneliness. Your lesson is to learn faith in your mental powers and to cultivate a positive attitude toward the frequently untapped power of your mental process.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Saturn in Virgo (or the sixth house) gives an orderly and analytic mind, deepening and concentrating the mental powers, and the discriminative and critical faculty. You are serious-minded and make an excellent worker, usually in a subordinate capacity. You may have difficulties due to being overly critical, and there is also danger of nervous disorder. You may have an irritable disposition. You are good at handling details, but you tend to worry over inconsequentials. You do not shrink from hard work, and are capable of putting extra effort into completing a task you have set for yourself. You may tend to be overly concerned about details of your outer life as a way of compensating for a lack of organization inwardly, and an inner anxiety over physical or mental disintegration. Your lesson is to strive to bring your inner and outer life into harmony by conscious effort in your search for the Self and its movement toward wholeness and integration.
Neptune in Libra (14° Lib 13') Neptune in the Fourth House
Neptune in the Fourth House (or sign) gives an emotionally sensitive and loving personality. You have powerful psychic tendencies. You were strongly influenced by your home life, and may tend to idealize these formative experiences. You may have suffered by being let down by the same-sex parent, or there may have been an unsettled home life leading to deep-rooted feelings of insecurity. Your home is important to you, and you may change residences frequently in search of your ideal environment. You may tend to repeat previous patterns learned in early life, which would be better avoided in the adult setting. You could perhaps suffer a loss of family, or part of your family connection, leading to potentially painful realizations. These realizations may in turn lead you to a more depersonalized and spiritual basis for the concept of family life.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Neptune in Libra (or the seventh house) gives a charming, generous and idealistic personality. With this placement you have an intense love of beauty and the arts, especially music and painting. You are imaginative and visionary. You may feel a sense of obligation to other people. You can give a great deal to others without expecting anything in return. You dream of finding the perfect partner, but you may encounter difficulties in making that dream a reality. There can be emotional confusion, leading you to depend too much on the strength of another person. There are likely to be karmic lessons for you in regard to partnership and marriage. Making an effort to pull back from too much self-sacrifice can bring greater clarity to relationships, which can be of benefit to all concerned.
Mercury in Scorpio (11° Sco 45') Mercury in the Fifth House
Mercury in Scorpio gives an intense and sharp-tongued personality. Your mental and observational powers are strong and your thoughts run deep. You have a deep-seated urge to communicate and connect with other people that does not always find its realization. Your will is strong, and you have a passion for discovering the truth behind surface appearances. Your penetrating intellect will plumb the depths of any subject. You may not immediately express your ideas however. You may get your point across non-verbally, or choose to express your opinions when you decide that the time is right. You can thus appear to be secretive. You may appear to be quiet and almost passive, but you are an acute observer of the world around. You constantly (and sometimes unconsciously) make judgments about other people and should beware of being overly critical.
Mercury in the Fifth House represents a strong mental connection between one's inner awareness and one's own creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others. Your thinking is creative. Children, and especially communicating with them, are important to you. You are also likely to be an entertaining conversationalist, with a good sense of humor. You may also excel in other forms of dramatic self-expression such as on the stage. You could have a tendency to want to convince others of your own point of view, but at the same time you may not be very willing to see the point of view of others. You benefit from cultivating greater powers of attention and perception, and opening your consciousness to the world around you.
Pluto in Leo (16° Leo 34') Pluto in the Second House
Pluto in the Second House (or sign) gives a personality somewhat focused around the issues of money and material possessions. With this placement you are on a path of transformation of your attitude toward the material, and of your values in general. You may have a tendency to associate a sense of security with material possessions, or possibly compulsive expenditures may be a problem. You can overcome these tendencies by self-discipline and re-aligning of values. When your values are transformed, your sense of self no longer depends on physical possessions, but rather depends on the deeper meaning associated with these things, which are symbolic of love and sharing.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Pluto in Leo (or the fifth house) gives a personality with a focus on being recognized and admired. You may feel a compulsion toward self-aggrandizement. You may have underlying feelings of insecurity leading to rather self-centered and ego oriented behavior. Your desire for reputation may be thwarted, but this can lead to benefits for you, by forcing a re-evaluation of your need to achieve. Transformation in this area is quite possible, moving toward a more positive expression of personal power. In expressing the more positive form of your creative energy, you can perform a service for yourself and society.
Angular Planets
Sun, Moon, Rising Sign Features
Sun in Scorpio (25° Sco 34' 37") Sun in the Fifth House
The Sun represents will and purpose, the sense of vitality, and the evolving higher Self. In Scorpio it is Fixed-Water, and rules the sexual organs. Your ruling planets are Mars and Pluto. Scorpio is the most intense sign of the Zodiac, and is associated with sexual activity and with the symbolism of death and rebirth. Your emotions run deep, and you also have great personal magnetism, and even the power to coerce others. Your will is strong, and you let nothing stand in your way. You may suffer in your life, but your pain leads to important personal transformation. You are very good at group dynamics, and working with the public. You are a shrewd judge of other people's motives, and you may be willing to use your special knowledge to your own advantage. Although you can be manipulative, when you work out your issues to be more in line with your own higher nature you have also the power of a healer, to transform yourself, and society around you.
The Sun in the Fifth House represents a concentration of one's vital force toward expression of self in a magnetic way. You are radiant and dynamic. You are likely to have a flamboyant or charismatic personality. You are very conscious of yourself and your personal identity and you love to display who you are to other people. You are very creative. You attract others by entertaining them with your various expressions of selfhood. You are in fact a natural actor or entertainer. You view life as theater; you are the central actor on your own stage. You need to feel free to explore and engage in activities which give you the opportunity to explore all the variations of creative emotional expression welling up from within yourself. Your ability to show yourself stimulates those around you to experiment with experiencing life more dramatically and fully. You need to give yourself permission to be in an environment in which you can manifest as wide and healthy range of dynamic interactions with others as is humanly possible.
Sun in strong conjunction (within 3.1 degrees) with Chiron
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets. With this aspect between Sun and Chiron you are likely to experience painful realizations throughout your own life and also have the ability to heal others as well. Chiron is called "the wounded healer" because it represents the archetype of imperfection and loss which when integrated leads to compassion and understanding of others' suffering. The empathy and the understanding that are gained through life's trials provides the ability to serve as a helper and a healer for others. You are more invested in this archetype than most, since it is in a powerful connection with your Sun, representing your conscious self. You have undoubtedly experienced pain and frustration related to your self-concept, perhaps through your relationship with your father or the same-sex parent. There could have been trauma in your early years concerning your parenting or the parental protection which may have been withdrawn too suddenly or misapplied. You may have suffered actual abuse in childhood or perhaps in later years such as in the period of adolescence, when you needed to make the transition to your own adulthood and may have been prevented from fully emerging into a more responsible and complete state due to external circumstances or your own lack or self-confidence. Since you have come through the fires of difficulty you are likely to be someone with career possibilities in the helping professions. It is often easier to face others' troubles than one's own, and you may even be more ready and available to help others than to help yourself. It is good to integrate your past experiences, no matter how painful they may have been, and no matter how painful these feelings continue to be for you in adult life. Then you will be in a position to truly sympathize with others' suffering and help them to work out their traumas as well.
Sun in semi-sextile (within 2.3 degrees) with Mars
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information. This aspect gives a rash personality with a quick temper. You lack patience and tend to be argumentative. You are restless and have a forceful drive which can lead you to accomplish great things, if properly harnessed. You are excitable, and tend to run risks. You can be opinionated. You are likely to be hard to talk with at times, since you take your own position at the expense of other's. You mean well, but it may not turn out that way in the event. You need to temper your strong physical drive with calmness and judgment.
Sun in inconjunct (within 4.3 degrees) with Uranus
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This aspect gives an eccentric and strong-willed individual. You tend to want to get your own way, and you love freedom from conventionality. You are inclined to be reckless, and may periodically start over in your life, completely eliminating previous foundations. You are an original and independent thinker with an active, scientific mind, futuristic in outlook, and so are capable of bringing new ideas into being. You are somewhat inclined to nervousness and impatience, and tend to shy away from commitment and responsibility. You can benefit from trying to control your energetic and visionary impulses in order to make these more concretely available in your own life, and in the life of society around you.
Sun in sesquiquadrate (within 1.6 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; control is required. This aspect between the Sun and Ascendant gives a strong-willed and generous personality. You are dramatic and assertive, also creative, self-confident and more than a bit self-indulgent. Like Leo rising people you expect to be the center of attention, and often are. You also have great energy, courage and honesty and are very proud. Your challenge is to become more aware of yourself; to refrain from arrogance and egotism, and rather to develop humility and compassion, and to learn detachment in the gift of your affections.
Moon in inconjunct (within 1.2 degrees) with Mercury
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This aspect gives a brilliant mind with a sharp tongue and a witty personality. You are an independent thinker. You can be sensitive at times, and you may find yourself overly concerned with health issues You may appear to have the attitude of the reformer toward your fellow-man, because you have a tendency to let your emotions run away with your thoughts. You should beware of a tendency to indulge in gossip at times, or to speak disparagingly of other people. However you make a loyal ally and will fly to the defense of a friend.
Moon in trine (within 3.7 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial. This aspect gives an emotionally sensitive, idealistic and loving personality. You possess an ethereal quality, and are a lover of music and the arts. You have the potential for powerful psychic abilities. You are the soft-hearted type, and you may be too willing to sacrifice yourself for the good of others. You were probably strongly influenced by your home life, and may tend to idealize these formative experiences. You could have issues with self-deception or experience discontent with the practical realities of life. Your home is important to you, and you may change residences frequently in search of your ideal environment, or dream of the ideal romantic attachment without ever finding the perfect mate. You benefit from striving for greater clarity in applying your high ideals to the real world.
Moon in semi-sextile (within 1.6 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information. This aspect between the Moon and Ascendant gives a nurturing and protective personality. You are subtle in your actions, rather than direct, and are likely to reflect the moods of those around you. Security and your home is important to you. You have a habit of moodiness, with your emotions frequently changing, and this can create problems in relating to others. You may feel at a loss to connect with others, not being sure of how they really feel towards you, and yet secretly desiring emotional contact with them. You also tend to act instinctively, rather than after reasoning out the situation. You can therefore benefit from shedding the light of conscious reason on your habitual patterns, and working toward greater focus on your true goals.
Cancer Rising
The Rising Sign is the mask shown to others, also the physical appearance.
People with Cancer rising are nurturing and protective of other people. Your ruling planet is the Moon, and you tend to be moody, with your emotions constantly changing. You are security-conscious and your home is important to you. The position of the Moon in your chart is very important, and shows the way your personality is likely to develop. If the Moon is well-placed by sign and aspect, life flows easily for you, while stressful aspects or sign placement may reflect difficulties (check the position of the Moon). Cancer people are apt to appear passive, and to rely on their feelings. You are subtle, rather than direct, and are likely to reflect the moods of those around you. You are also good at working with the public. You are likely to be involved with the past in some way, because the sign of Cancer is the sign of nurturing, protecting, sustaining, and is strongly tied to the past, and Karma. You are probably the type who can be happy for hours in an antique store. Cancer people tend to collect the residue of past experience and hold onto it, as a coloration of their present activities, leading to instinctual action. You can benefit from shedding the light of conscious reason on your habitual patterns, and focusing on your true goals.
Mercury in trine (within 2.8 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial. This aspect gives a person who values all sorts of mental pursuits and communication highly. You have a need to connect with other people. Your logical and communicative abilities are excellent. You are quick-witted and glib, and may also be nervous and high-strung. You should beware of a tendency to dominate any conversation you enter into. Your pride in your mental abilities and education may overshadow your ability to hear other people's ideas. You can therefore be stubborn and difficult to shake from your own opinion. You are in essence an independent thinker with your own way of looking at things, and you may be inspired and even visionary in your outlook.
Saturn in weak sextile (within 3.6 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections. This aspect gives a deepening and concentration of the self-expression. You are serious about your responsibilities, and possess good executive abilities. You are also ambitious and are likely to make your mark on the world. There may also be a barrier between you and your self-realization, so that your true feelings are denied outlet, or you may have a sense of rejection or lack of love in your life, leading to a subconscious desire for recognition. Your lesson in all this may be to deepen and particularize the knowledge of who you really are, make contact with your own inner significance, and learn to love yourself.
Other Natal Planets
Venus in Libra (20° Lib 11') Venus in the Fifth House
Venus in Libra gives a gentle nature, one who is considerate and kind. With this placement you are genuine in your love and direct and clear in its expression. You are inclined to be "young at heart". Your love is expressed on mental and spiritual levels, rather than on the level of physical sensation. You have refined esthetic and artistic sensibilities, and a keen sense of color.
Venus in the Fifth House represents a strong connection between an artistic sensibility and creative self-expression. You have a great capacity for joy in your life, which expresses itself in acts of caring and giving to others. You are a proud standard-bearer for what you value. You seem sure of yourself, because at base you are well-grounded in appreciation of your own self-worth. You may possess the talent of a dramatic actor, which you could no doubt use to great effect when you want to get your way, and which makes you an asset in social situations. You are dramatic and dignified, and also very caring and compassionate. You have a great capacity to let the child within flow through you, in an outlet of energy that is creative in the highest sense.
Mars in Sagittarius (23° Sag 17') Mars in the Sixth House
Mars in the Sixth House (or sign) gives a kind nature, usually an energetic worker, with a tendency to be fussy over details. You possess a tremendous desire to be helpful to others, and are practical and hard-working, but perhaps "cannot see the forest for the trees" and need to work through getting into conflicts over trifles. You may tend to be too narrow in the application of effort. You must learn to get past the inconsequentials in order to look at the bigger picture.
Mars in Sagittarius (or the ninth house) gives a friendly and optimistic nature, spontaneous and impulsive. You are sometimes scattered in the application of your energies, and need to work at being more reliable. You lead a physically active life, and love sports and gambling. You are idealistic, and outspoken and honest with your opinions. You also have a propensity for higher learning. You have a kind of haphazard way of going about things which can get you into trouble, and tend to miss the details, by focusing on "the big picture". You could benefit by learning to slow down and concentrate your energies.
Jupiter in Capricorn (0° Cap 32') Jupiter in the Sixth House
Jupiter in the Sixth House (or sign) gives you an optimistic outlook on everyday life, including health issues and the mundane details of the daily workweek. You are one who is capable of enormous output when you get inspired, and approach the practical necessities of daily existence with a quiet joy and a gentle humility. You are an inspiration to your co-workers although you may tend to get caught up in details and miss the big picture approach at times. Health issues are important to you, but this does not imply ill-health. In an attempt to find the perfect fitness regime you may go to extremes of either abundance or abstinence. You are very determined and can turn small advantages into success over time. You excel in the natural religion of the ordinary, and take a practical and responsible view of life.
Jupiter in Capricorn (or the tenth house) gives you a serious and conscientious personality. You are also very practical and have a talent for working with the public. You tend to be extremely careful with money, making a good manager, and have a strong drive to achieve success. You can also be somewhat fearful of risking the fruits of your achievement or perhaps somewhat miserly with your affection. You may refrain from taking chances that would in fact succeed. Your opportunities usually come from hard work and dedication. Tradition plays a large part in molding your ideals. You are noble and honorable in your connection with society around you, and enjoy being known as a good role model for others to follow.
Uranus in Gemini (29° Gem 50'R) Uranus in the Twelfth House
Uranus in the Twelfth House (or sign) gives an understanding and helpful personality. With this placement you are somewhat inclined to nervousness, or perhaps to suffer from over-sensitivity. You may also feel some confinement or restriction in your freedom to be who you want to be. Inner goals may be more important for you to tune in on than conventional ones. You may be dedicated to the service of humanity, or at least social ideals will strongly affect the expression of your individuality. You could also be very psychic, and you may have an interest in mysticism or the occult. You have a need to confront the past in order to outgrow its effects on your own life, manifested in terms of subconscious or habitual patterns.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Uranus in Gemini (or the third house) gives an individual who is restless and mentally acute, with an ability to grasp new concepts quickly. You are likely to change your focus quite a bit. Education is important to you, and you actively explore new subjects and disciplines, becoming adept at all of them, but perhaps without fulfilling long-term commitments. You may have had upsetting circumstances in the area of early home life or in relations with your brothers and sisters. Your relations with friends and associates are also likely to vary sporadically. You have the ability to think freely, unhampered by conventional attitudes or public opinion, and you can also benefit from developing self-discipline in your mental function. You have a need in your life to create a new basis of understanding with respect to the issues of mental process and communications with others.
Chiron in Scorpio (28° Sco 38') Chiron in the Fifth House
Chiron in the Fifth House (or sign) represents issues with one’s vital force toward expression of self in a magnetic way. With this placement you may experience as painful your sense of who you are and how you express your individual self-hood. You have a strong desire, even a compulsion, to be seen on some form of public stage, to share your unique sensibility with others and move them or enlighten them in some way. Yet again and again you find yourself thwarted in your attempts to shine. You may appear shy, or feel awkward in the presence of other people. You may have had painful experiences in your formative years in which you were put down or been made to feel insecure. Or your basic sense of your own individuality may have been in conflict with that of important parental figures that were a powerful influence upon you as you were growing up. These experiences may have had the effect of causing you to be wary of actually coming out with who you really are. You may feel a strong sense of wanting to be your own unique and independent self, fully in touch with your inner being, but fail in the actual event. You may even have experienced radical blockages, such as accidents or other “acts of God” that have prevented you from achieving your full creative potential. You will continue to have painful experiences as long as these issues and their deep-seated emotions are relatively unconscious within your psyche. You may feel a need to help others in achieving their goals, rather than yourself. You may even make a career of helping others in this way, leading them toward the path that you might have taken yourself. This is valid as long as it comes from a place of no resentment for unfulfilled promises. It is important to try to become conscious of all your inner dynamics as you explore your life’s path. Then you can shine out as a beacon for others, and achieve dramatic results in your own life as well, in ways you would never have dreamed possible.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Chiron in Scorpio (or the Eighth House) represents issues with one’s vital force to transform and to regenerate. With this placement you have a strong compulsion for intimate connection with other people that does not easily find its realization. You are likely to have been wounded in your sexuality in some fashion, possibility through early experiences that may even include abuse, either physical or emotional. As a consequence, being close to other people becomes both desired and painful. You may hold off the prospect of closeness with others with some carefully engineered defenses, such as retreating from expressing your true feelings by means of clever Dylanesque obfuscation, or perhaps by using other people before they have a chance to use you. If you do retreat into cleverness and mental gymnastics rather than risk staying with your actual emotion, you leave these feelings unexpressed, and continue a process of being out of touch not only with the intimate other, but with the deeper part of yourself as well. Your journey of discovery of your true emotions, the poignant and vital basis of your inner life, is ultimately the most important one for you, and provides rich rewards as you begin to consciously experience these inner depths of your being, over a period of time. In this journey you will reconnect to your own long buried emotions, and through this process to others as well. As you begin to find yourself and your power, and are truly able to work with other people, you may be able to provide a sense of hope to them in their own individual journeys as well, through the increased consciousness you have gained.
N Node in Taurus (4° Tau 54'R) N Node in the Eleventh House
Lunar North Node in the Eleventh House (or sign). South Node in the fifth house or sign. This placement gives an individual with a focus on friendships and social groups. Although creativity on a personal level comes easily to you, and working creatively with other people is more difficult, it is the more difficult that you must attempt in this lifetime. In the past, or in previous lifetimes, you were proud of your individuality and of your individual contribution. You may have had an ego attachment to the products of your personal energy, and were on the other hand not very interested in promoting social values or a group ideal. Now, in this lifetime, you find yourself envisioning possibilities for larger social groupings than just yourself and your immediate family. Perhaps the betterment of all of society becomes your focus now. As you develop along your evolutionary path you find that you are ever more future-oriented and socially responsible, for this is the way for you to find your true fulfillment.
Lunar North Node in Taurus (or the second house). South Node in the eighth house or sign. This placement gives a personality somewhat focused around the issues of money and material possessions. In a previous period, or past lifetime, you were concerned with the utilization of other people's resources rather than your own. You also may have gotten involved with occult practices, or engaged in deep and even taboo relations with others, factors the residue of which still colors your present life experience. Now, in this lifetime, you must learn to marshall your own forces and be a resource unto yourself. You are in the process of clarifying your values, based on a new feeling of independence, having come through the fires of hell, as it were, in order to establish a more stable and lasting sense of self-worth.
Other Aspects
Jupiter in strong opposition (within 0.7 degrees) with Uranus
The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge. This combination gives a socially conscious, optimistic and intuitive individual who works well with groups. You have a strong sense of optimism and possess high ideals. You are inventive and original, and are able to motivate others by your example. You like to explore new horizons, either real or imagined, and do not value security on a personal level. You can be rebellious, even restless and excitable, because you have the capacity to visualize new possibilities rather than accept an outmoded status quo. You may have sudden and surprising opportunities in your life, and you will usually act to take advantage of these, which may involve travel to distant places. You should beware of your capacity to envision possibilities too vast to achieve. You can benefit from cultivating a more practical approach.
Venus in sextile (within 3.1 degrees) with Mars
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections. This aspect gives a warmly affectionate and lively personality. You are self-assured and passionate, and greatly enjoy family life. You probably exhibit a fondness for children. You are also interested in the arts, especially singing and dancing, as well as other musical forms. You possess an innate kindness and demonstrate such love for your fellow man that it makes you well-liked and carries you far in life.
Venus in quintile (within 1.7 degrees) with Jupiter
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension. This aspect gives a refined and idealistic nature. You always see the big picture but may miss out on the practicalities along the way. You are incredibly optimistic, and see opportunity in everything. You may therefore suffer from a lack of focus, and not knowing what you really want. You are perhaps too easily influenced by others, and may have difficulty in making decisions. You are a great lover of art and beauty, and are very social and attractive.
Venus in semi-square (within 0.3 degrees) with Saturn
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; calmness is required. This aspect gives a personality with a deepening and concentration, or a blockage in the area of interpersonal relationships. You are sensitive and have a strong sense of duty and loyalty. You may have experienced coldness from one parent, or early love experiences may have proven painful. You could have fears of rejection concerning romantic contacts. You can benefit from more fully exploring relationships with others. For one thing this enables you to more fully understand yourself.
Venus in inconjunct (within 3.0 degrees) with Midheaven
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This aspect gives a caring and aesthetically motivated personality. You are friendly and social, and consistently strive for harmony in your dealings with other people. With the beauty and grace of Venus affecting your public life, you are ideally suited for a career in diplomacy or the arts, or some other elegant and graceful profession, such as interior decorating. You work well with others, and do better to establish yourself in a business partnership rather than being employed on your own.
Jupiter in sesquiquadrate (within 1.0 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; control is required. This combination gives a positive and determined personality, with an ability to develop your powers to the fullest. Your focus is excellent, and you make a good leader because of it. You work well in the area of interpersonal relationships, although you should beware of a tendency to dominate others. You may be interested in the occult, or possess the powers of a healer or mystic. Your best use of your powers of focus and self-transformation are in the area of working with other people, for you have much to share with your fellow-man.
Jupiter in semi-sextile (within 1.9 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information. With this placement you have a strong connection with spirituality and a great tendency to go your own way rather than subserve yourself to the spiritual ideals of human consciousness. You also may have been wounded in your spirituality in some way; perhaps in your early life you were forced into relationship with some sort of spiritual community to which you did not feel a connection. These two planetary energies, Jupiter and Chiron, both have a strong spiritual component, but operate in different ways. With Jupiter's optimism in support of Chiron's tendency for pain and suffering as a way toward the light, you are always able to rise above distressing circumstances, buoyed up by a strong streak of faith in the ultimate beneficence of Spirit. In fact, positive outlooks can become something of an obsession with you, so that friends and associates get tired of your unflagging optimism even though you are such a helpful companion. You have an abiding interest in matters of the religion and philosophy, although this is likely to represent your own style of spiritual involvement rather than any standard form of spiritual institutions.
Uranus in semi-square (within 1.7 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; calmness is required. This combination gives an individual who is willful and possesses great depth of passion. This is a generational aspect, which many of your contemporaries will share with you. You are to an unusual degree tuned in to the energy of the collective, especially with regard to the ultimate transformation of society. You are compassionate toward your fellow-man, and you are inclined to be a helper in the creation of a new world, based on humanitarian ideals of universal brotherhood.
Uranus in inconjunct (within 1.2 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. With this aspect, you are prone to sudden insights and departures. You have a unusual combination of personality traits in which you are both very unconventional yet also somewhat unsure of yourself in your very departure from the rest of society, so that you may surprisingly show flashes of a conservative side. You have a brilliant mind, and are undoubtedly a witty conversationalist, although with a slightly erratic tendency to switch topics arbitrarily. This aspect is the hallmark of an inventor or other type of creative thinker, perhaps in the health fields or the helping professions. You are likely to have great difficulties with walking the straight and narrow but something seems to be forcing you to. Or it is a compulsion based on your own painful experiences with authority. It is important to become more conscious of your hidden motivations and patterns, so as not to be ruled by them from below, as it were.

Neptune in semi-square (within 0.6 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; calmness is required. With this combination of planetary energies in your chart, you may have gone to the depths and back again in your life. You have a particularly strong access to the world of dreams and inner fantasy, which may serve as an escape valve for you. You may also be extremely sensitive to the psyches of others, may vicariously experience their pain. Something keeps you out of touch with consensus reality, but you also are not comfortable with this role. It is as if you stand on the other side of a glass door from the rest of society, through which you alternately gaze longingly and then lose interest and wander away into your own fantasy. You are capable of tremendous spiritual powers once you have begun to work through these difficulties and establish a better sense of where you stand vis a vis the remainder of society. You may exhibit great poetic or musical talent or the empathy of a born healer. Having come through a painful examination of your own psyche you are able to see more clearly and compassionately into the minds of others also.

You will not be content with an ordinary job, but must seek out some career which is a real calling. At your best you express the ideals of society and find a spiritual joy in your work.
Pluto in inconjunct (within 0.6 degrees) with Midheaven
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed. This combination gives a forceful personality with a focus on issues of authority, power and control. There may in fact be a compulsion for control manifesting in problems with interpersonal relations or in rebellious attitudes toward established authority, or perhaps in the charismatic personal magnetism of the natural leader. There are however likely to be difficulties inherent in maintaining a position of authority, once achieved. What is needed is a reevaluation and transformation of the urge for power and control, based on a deeper understanding of personal power and a more conscious and socially responsible use of it.
Moon in weak square (within 5.1 degrees) with Saturn
The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time. This aspect gives a deepening and concentrating, or a blockage in the expression of your feelings. You may seem to be rigid, rather letting your emotions flow freely. You may be extremely sensitive. You may have had problems with the parental care and guidance you received as a child, or you may be fixated on one parent, especially your mother. There may be a sense of over-identification with mother, or possibly an unconscious rejection of her influence. You may have experienced her as rejecting or uncaring -- and this attitude may spill over to the significant women in your life. You may experience difficulties in your relationship to the feminine. In a woman's chart there could be a need to more fully identify with and bring into focus a concept of your own femininity. In a man's chart you may be in relationship to powerful feminine figures, symbolic of the powerful feelings that are denied full expression in your own nature. The lesson for you here is to more fully and deeply understand and value the true roots of your being, leading to a better sense of security and greater self-acceptance.
Moon in weak sextile (within 6.0 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections. This aspect gives a moody and introspective personality with a strong desire for emotional security. You are likely to be very sensitive and emotionally extreme, with a tendency to become completely absorbed in interpersonal relationships. You are also an extremely forceful individual, with the urge to transform yourself and your surroundings. When you have a goal in mind, nothing will stand in your way. Your need for security may manifest as an almost compulsive desire for a safe and secure home life, or a home environment which can be completely controlled, possibly even through dictatorial behavior. You have an unusually clear insight into the emotional depths of other people, which may border on an actual psychic attunement with their states of being. You also have the urge to break through the limitations of the parental influence you experienced as a child. You may have experienced controlling behavior on the part of one or both parents, especially your mother, and you may find yourself still involved in the battle for your own autonomy many years later. These struggles can be worked through in your life, beginning with a deeper understanding of what it is you truly need on an emotional level. Your challenge is to transform your sense of insecurity, by coming to terms with your survival issues based on a better insight into your own hidden motivations.

You have simultaneously an attraction toward close involvement with another person, together with fears regarding such involvements. There are some extreme difficulties to be worked out in these areas, which may lead you to a painful re-examination of your goals. Wisdom is required in the way you handle close relationships, in order to transform the partnership energy into a growing and conscious act of sharing.
