INTRODUCTION: NATAL CHARTAstrology/astronomy is the oldest recorded science known to man. Much precious space has been given to recording the appearance, disappearance, and cyclical movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and stars in early man's tedious efforts to communicate his history AND his ideas to future generations. Sumerian cuneiform script on clay tablets dating back over 2,000 years BC had texts correlating time (calendars) to the heavenly bodies. Many tablets also displayed some of the same glyphs and characters that we use today in astrology, while others recorded the close correlation observed between earthly and celestial phenomena.
In the seventh century BC, Assyrian Astrologers became quite sophisticated in predicting eclipses and retrogradation of the planets by observing their movements against the background of the stars and constellations. These observations provided the earliest body of knowledge on which the study of both Astrology and Astronomy are based today. However, this was not the purpose of their observations. The astrologer's responsibilities were to provide their priests and rulers with favorable and unfavorable times for religious and social activities, and for the affairs of state. As a result of their efforts, a considerable body of knowledge and astrological lore was accumulated and recorded.
Early man gazed at the planets and stars and discovered that their positions in the heavens and their distances from each other were constantly changing, and that those changes formed patterns which were repeated and predictable. He observed that all of nature in his world was directly related to those changes. Confined as he was to a small patch of earth where even boundaries and limits were unknown, it is little wonder that he began to correlate the events in his own life with the cycles of the planets and the stars, and to seek to live in harmony with their changing patterns and with nature.
Today's man, through the science of Astronomy, uses these same stars to guide him on his personal visits to some of these heavenly bodies. Astronomy also helps modern man to place his own stars (satellites) in the sky. Some of these provide forms of communication which would be as difficult for early man to believe and understand as it seems to be for some Astronomers and others to believe that the ORIGINAL planets can still communicate influences to man today. Since these influences affect only the feelings, and the individual does have free will to make his own decisions, Astrology cannot meet a "scientific test" of "repeated results under controlled conditions". Neither can religion, for that matter, yet most people believe in some form of religion.
Astrologers have been observing correlations of "As Above, So Below" for centuries, resulting in a tremendous body of knowledge. They are constantly studying, comparing, defining, delineating, and recording these influences and their meanings. Today, sophisticated computers make these tasks easier and the information more reliable. Thanks to the diligence of the ancients for preserving the records and to the enormous capacity of computers to store and sort information, today's Astrologer can cast a better chart and interpret it more accurately and completely than ever before.
The Natal Chart interpretations are found by computing the astrological data for the date, time, and place of your birth. Your chart is unique in its combination of planetary positions, aspects, and influences. There are literally thousands of variables in the natal chart alone, and each individual will usually have less than a hundred of these variables in his or her chart. We will print all of those which apply to your particular birth time and place, and they are what make you the unique individual that you are. We try to present this information in such a way that you can recognize and interpret the "blueprint" of your own "Personality Profile."
There will be Delineations that appear to absolutely contradict each other, and there will be some that you cannot believe applies to you at all. Please try to keep an open mind and read the Natal Report all the way through. We will address all these concerns, and more, on the last page.
Astrology is not "fatalism". "What Is To Be" is not necessarily what WILL be. The individual always has free will to make his/her own choices. Your horoscope reveals the astrological imprints upon your personality at the time of your birth. It has been up to you to decide which influences to accept and which influences to challenge. Personal growth results from those choices. Read the interpretation of your Natal chart and look back on your life. Is this you? Was this you? We think you will be amazed!
Given below is some technical data that your astrological analysis is based on. This data is derived from the date, time, and place of your birth, and is unique in that it applies ONLY to YOU.

YOUR ASTROLOGICAL IDENTITY
The sign which the Sun was in when you were born tends to give you your astrological identity. How many times have you heard the question, "What sign are you"? . . . How many times have you had people identify themselves with the statement: "I am a Leo, I am an Aries, I am a Pisces", etc. . . . Many times for both questions, I am sure.
Practically everyone knows his or her own Sun-sign. You probably have also noticed that most people have heard some simplistic Sun-sign interpretations and they are likely to add, "I am a natural leader--I'm a Leo, you know"; or, "Of course I have a temper, I'm an Aries"; or, "Pisces people are naturally psychic".
These generalities are sometimes accurate, but not all Leos are leaders, not all Arians have temper tantrums, nor, are all Pisceans especially psychic. Even when these simplistic statements are true, there are many more influences in the Sun-sign of each individual and many other astrological influences that affect that individual's personality. If astrology were taken no farther than the Sun-sign, it would be telling us that we are like every other person who was born under our particular Sun-sign!
The Sun sign IS perhaps the most important SINGLE factor among the thousands of variables drawn from when setting up the horoscope. Through the sign it occupies at the time of your birth, it colors your personality so strongly that it usually can be recognized throughout your lifetime. It indicates the ways in which you express your basic energy potential and your creative drive to grow and develop as an individual. It is also one of the major factors from which you draw upon to develop your personal identity and self worth.
You have only one Sun-sign, however, and even if it IS the most powerful of all the stellar bodies, its influences are modified by the house in which it is found and by its hemispheric location in the chart. Its relationship to the Natal Moon is also legendary, and warrants special attention in the interpretation process. Even more modifications can be expected from the aspects of the Sun to the other planets and to the Ascendant and Midheaven, from what "Mode" and "Element" it is in, and by the house positions of the sign Leo, which is "ruled" by the Sun. When you take all these things into consideration you can certainly see that there is much, much more to your identity than your Sun-sign.
However, this popular interest in Sun-sign astrology does account for a proliferation of Sun-sign publications, and one can find Sun-sign interpretations and legends in literally hundreds of astrological books and magazines today.
In the following delineation of the Sun-sign in your chart, we have tried to include those influences that are most consistent in the interpretations of the ancients, the masters of astrology, and the teachers of astrology--as well as those of the many gifted researchers and newcomers in astrology today.
SUN IN PISCES
The Sun is in Pisces from approximately February l9 through March 20. Key words are compassion, universality, and renunciation. Key phrase is "I believe". Pisces is a water sign ruled by the planets Neptune and Jupiter. It is a sensitive sign and those born under it are extremely responsive to the thoughts and feelings of others.
Llewellyn George in his "A to Z Horoscope Maker and Delineator" (Llewellyn Publications, Thirty-sixth Printing, 1974) has this to say: "In Pisces the Sun generally gives a kind and loving nature, confiding, honest, amiable, sympathetic and especially kind to dumb animals or people in distress. Neat, particular and a lover of order and completeness; modest, often timid and lacking self-confidence. As a rule Pisceans are industrious, methodical and logical in their conclusions; idealistic, imaginative, inspirational; often gifted with mediumistic faculty and usually fond of secret, occult or psychic investigation."
Max Heindel in his book, "The Message of the Stars" (Rosicrucians, 1927), writes: "Gives a retiring disposition and favors success in occupations removed from the public gaze such as prisons, hospitals, institutions for the poor, etc. If the person incur enmity of others, he will be vindicated whatever they may do to hurt his reputation. People with the Sun in Pisces have a strong tendency towards psychism, mediumship and the occult in general."
The Sun in Pisces generally provides a kind and loving nature: confiding, honest, amiable, sympathetic, and especially kind to dumb animals or people in distress. You are neat, particular and a lover of order and routine. You are modest and often timid, and could be lacking in self-confidence. As a rule, Pisceans are methodical and logical in their conclusions: idealistic, imaginative, inspirational. They are often gifted with mediumistic faculties and are usually fond of secret, occult or psychic investigation.
You may unconsciously absorb the ideas and mental outlook of those around you. You are easily influenced by external factors, and even though you desperately want to do the right thing at all times, your willpower may be easily overcome. The symbol for Pisces is two attached fishes swimming in opposite directions, which signifies the drastic duality of emotions of persons born under this sign. You need to learn to stand alone, and to practice making up your own mind. Procrastination is one of your biggest handicaps, though what seems like pure luck may often save the situation, even though you dallied about making decisions.
In marriage, relationships, and other partnerships, you may let the significant other truly believe that he or she is the boss. You will allow the other to handle the mechanical, technical things and initiate most of the activity. People will just naturally want to help you out. You are good at delegating, but you are really likely to rule with an iron hand in a velvet glove. If things get too far out of hand you can express your displeasure very effectively with sarcasm and rancor.
Your charm, humor, and sympathy can open the gates of opportunity to you. However, your kindly, moderate nature makes it quite easy for you to let things drift, which can be extremely annoying to others who are more practical. On the other hand, given the duality of your sign, you can be efficient and exact. Your temperament varies from strongly optimistic to acutely pessimistic. You feel you must follow that still, small voice within, and will be extremely unhappy if you find yourself in situations where your spiritual uniqueness is inhibited.
You are sensitive to other people's suffering and have an overactive imagination. You feel their pain and sincerely want to initiate healing and relief. You may choose to work in some of the most sordid positions you can find if you could lighten the loads of those less fortunate. You will devote your strength and time to the sick and the desolate, with no sense of reward. You are blind to all defects in those whom you love and trust.
Your greatest character defect may be in your sense of fatalism. You need to realize you are not chained to any destiny not of your own making. You have to face yourself realistically in order to bring forth that which you can become. You really do make the world seem like a better place.
YOUR RISING SIGN
It would be impossible to even estimate the number of individuals who share your Sun sign, but just the opposite is true for your Rising sign. Only those who were born at the same geographic location and at the same exact moment of time could share the same precise second, minute, and degree of the sign upon your Ascendant. A difference in birth time of even a few minutes and/or a few degrees of latitude or longitude can alter the signs upon the houses and the locations of planets within the houses.
The horoscope is a circle, and the whole is made up of its many parts. The well-known Swiss psychoanalyst, Dr. Carl Jung, coined the term, "Synchronicity", for life within the horoscope. Under that concept, the Rising sign represents the beginning of the natal chart as birth represents the beginning of life--the first part of synchronization. Like the horoscope, life is also a circle whose whole is made up of its many parts. Unlike the familiar TV beer commercial, however, we DO "Go around" more than once, and it CAN "Get better than this".
Astrology, by way of the horoscope, symbolically divides life into twelve general areas called houses. There is a sign of the Zodiac upon the cusp (beginning) of each house. Your rising sign (Ascendant) is on the cusp of your first house, and signs upon the rest of the houses are determined progressively from that sign which was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact time and place of your birth. This makes your horoscope as individual and unique to your personal identity as are your fingerprints.
Some astrologers refer to the interpretation of the rising sign as the Mask we show the world--our public image. It is that part of our personality that we feel safe in allowing others to see. It may also disguise those facets of ourselves that we would prefer to keep to ourselves. Consequently, the delineation of influences from your rising sign could very well be descriptions of the way other people see you, though not necessarily the way you see yourself. It is certainly not the whole you or the ONLY you, but it could provide you with a valuable source of insight for enhancing your own self-awareness.
As you read the delineations of your chart, remember we are painting a composite portrait of your personality as revealed by the most prominent astrological influences in force at the moment of your birth. However, for each year of your life, the Sun has touched each point in your chart again. The Moon does this every twenty-eight days: Saturn, every twenty-eight to thirty-one years--and so with all the planets and parts within their own time circle. The ways in which you have dealt with the stresses and supports of your birth imprints and the subsequent aspects applied to your circle of life up to now will help to explain the person you are today.
Some delineations of specific aspects may appear to contradict others in your chart. Actually, there are no contradictions in Astrology--at least no more than there are in the human psyche. We are seeking a blend. It is in the interpretation of the whole chart and its application to the circle of your life that we begin to appreciate Dr. Jung's word, "Synchronicity".
Directly following your Rising sign we will interpret the influences of the signs on the houses (two through twelve) in your Natal chart. These signs are a natural progression from the Ascendant according to the house system used. We use the "Placidus" house system in our work. With this system some houses could enclose a complete sign, and there could be the same sign on two houses, but since it allows for the curvature of the earth, we believe it places the coordinates most accurately to the east and west in both hemispheres.
GEMINI RISING
Life is never dull around a Gemini rising. People with this Ascendant can be entertaining for hours because they cannot stand to be bored themselves. They need constant mental stimulation because their active minds simply will not rest.
Mercury rules the sign Gemini. This is the planet of mentality, thought, speech, and communication. The person with this Ascendant is a fascinating conversationalist, as words and ideas are his or her specialty. The word "mercurial" describes the mentality to a tee. Gemini is an air sign, making swiftness of the intellect even more pronounced, and it is in the mutable mode, emphasizing changeability. The symbol of Gemini is the twins. Those with this sign rising are accused of having a dual personality.
Others may feel that you talk out of both sides of your face, and follow a rather erratic course of action. You can appear irresponsible at times, for you will not allow yourself to be trapped under heavy and dampening pressures. Drudgery or routine can squelch your spirit more than anything else. You need to be valued and appreciated, but may shun obligation. Eventually, however, this very behavior will lead you to your highest expression.
You my be accused of having a dual personality, and you may actually feel safer if you have two situations in your life at once--be it personal or business. In reality, you are only exhibiting the duality of the human condition. Each person is body and soul and the tug of both is heavy. The pull of the pair of polar opposites can be intense, causing you to swing rapidly like a pendulum until you understand the necessity of bringing the spiritual and the physical together within yourself.
When you don't feel safe with a situation, you can remove yourself without ever leaving the scene. If you decide to shut someone out, your warmth can disappear as if behind a cloud and the chill that is left can be very penetrating. Part of your appeal may be that people just never know exactly where they stand with you. You can outtalk, outthink, outsmart and outmaneuver them all the time. You will respect them if they CAN keep up with you, but will not like it if they should get ahead of you.
Others may see you as "spacey". If you cannot express your true curiosity and interest, you can readily escape into a fantasy world. You are not able to take much punishment or heavy judgment, for you are deeply sensitive. If you hold a ball of mercury in the palm of your hand gently, it nestles in one spot, but if you push your finger down on it, it just simply slides away. As a very childlike person, you do the same thing. You slide into your rich imagination and retreat inside yourself.
You are always questioning and learning. You will always appear young and alive no matter what your chronological age, for your mind is always alert, curious, flexible, and open to new experiences. You have a childlike enthusiasm for anything new and you learn easily, but you also get bored rather quickly. You can appear to be something of a scatterbrain, for you tend to have so many ideas and irons in the fire that it is hard to keep track of them all. You are actually able to do at least two things at once, especially something with your hands while you are doing something with your mind. You need and crave variety, change, mental stimulation, and an active social life.
You may seem frivolous to other more serious souls. You have a sense of humor and a sense of perspective that prevents you from taking yourself (or life) too seriously. In fact you may seem flippant or unconcerned about matters that others consider very important. However, you respond to life mentally and objectively, rather than emotionally, and you may not empathize with serious people very much. But no matter how badly you may be feeling, you never appear heavy or somber.
You will achieve true fulfillment only when you can pull the spiritual and physical aspects of your being together by eliminating the so-called "split" personality.
GEMINI ON 2ND HOUSE--Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and when the sign is on the second house of money and worth, material things are likely to be both available and important. Mind and intellect will both be attuned to making money. There could be more than one source of income, and possessions would be practical, useful, and aesthetic.
CANCER ON 3RD HOUSE--When this emotional sign with the Moon ruler is on the cusp of the third house of communications, thinking mind, travel, and writing, you are likely to travel in connection with business and financial affairs. You can express yourself on an emotional level with understanding of how the recipient feels about your communications. This would serve you well if you should try your hand at writing. Your intuitions are well tuned, but intellectual objectivity could be a problem because it is difficult for you think unemotionally.
LEO ON 4TH HOUSE--The Sun rules Leo and, when on the fourth house of domesticity and the home, it can truly make the home a place for you to "shine". Your home may be a showplace where you can express your creativity and status. You can express your power most comfortably through home and family. You probably love to entertain, and your guests are treated with warmth and love.
VIRGO ON 5TH HOUSE--Mercury, planet of intellect, rules Virgo, the sign of order and organization. On the fifth house of children, romance, and creative expression, they encourage careful, analytical thinking with close attention to detail. You are likely to be a perfectionist in social affairs and overly critical in affairs of the heart. You want everything (and everyone) in its (their) proper place. You will have very high expectations for both lovers and your children (whether they be physical children or "children of the mind"). Loved ones could become ill at ease with your scrupulous organizational tendencies.
LIBRA ON 6TH HOUSE--Libra is ruled by Venus, planet of talent, aesthetics, and the good things of life. When it is combined with this sign of fair play and ambition on the sixth house of work, service, and health, they provide a very strong combination of influences for the achievement of goals. Work will be original and consistent, with a real concern for the welfare of others, and generally good health can be expected.
SAGITTARIUS ON 7TH HOUSE--Jupiter, planet of expansion, philosophy, and "good fortune", rules Sagittarius, which is the sign of optimism and ideals. When this combination is found on the seventh house of relationships, marriage and other partnerships, the results can be mutually rewarding. The marriage partnerships could become a business partnership, and either is likely to include financial reward.
SAGITTARIUS ON 8TH HOUSE--The eighth house deals with primal instincts, death, and others' resources. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, and brings expansion, idealism and higher mind to these areas. You may profit through an inheritance, and your partner is likely to be financially stable. You will need to be firm and accountable in all eighth house affairs.
CAPRICORN ON 9TH HOUSE--Capricorn with Saturn ruling on the ninth house of the higher mind, religion, philosophy, travel, publishing, etc., will encourage a conservative approach to all these matters. The philosophical outlook can be restricted by materialism, and perhaps the most comfortable way of expressing humanitarian instincts is through the profession. You are likely to be attracted to the more traditional types of religion and education, but any efforts you begin in these areas will be serious and determined.
AQUARIUS ON 10TH HOUSE--When Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, is found on the tenth house of ambition, career, profession, and esteem, there will be a mixture of the unusual and the stable--or a fluctuation between the two. You will bring unusual insights into your work, which could be performed within a large organization, corporation, or a structured institution. This favors the human service careers--doctors, nurses, social workers, counselors, etc.
PISCES ON 11TH HOUSE--Pisces, on your eleventh house of friends, goals, and love received, is ruled by Neptune, planet of vision and mystery. You will have many friends, some of whom may be very unusual. You are able to establish empathy and insight with friends and groups in which you become involved. However, you can tend to be rather indiscriminate in accepting friendships. As a result, you run the risk of sometimes getting hurt and disappointed by friends or groups that you become involved with.
ARIES ON 12TH HOUSE--Mars is the ruler of Aries, and this combination of action and impulsiveness on the twelfth house of limitations, hidden meanings, and the subconscious could be interesting to say the least! You can be decisive and courageous, but you need to curb impulsive actions. You could secretly initiate activities with much hidden support, but you need to practice being more open and less secretive, especially where your emotions are concerned.
THE PLANETS: POSITIONS AND ASPECTS
Astrology recognizes ten major "heavenly bodies" in the Universe that radiate various influences toward earth, and thus manifest themselves in the lives and affairs of mankind. The Sun and the Moon influences are most recognizable because some of them are visible and tactile, such as light and heat. They also provide the base for mankind's calculation of time--the calendar and the clock. Influences distributed by the other eight planets may be less visible and more subtle, but not less real.
These emanations are constant, but the intensity of their influences can be tempered by the sign they are in, the house of your chart in which they are located, and by their angular aspects to each other. We touched upon this in the introduction to the Ascendant when we also introduced the term "synchronicity". In the following pages we will print the individual interpretations of each planet in your chart with respect to the sign it is in, and its house position.
Following that we will print the interpretation of the planetary aspects to each other. Aspects are specific angles between two or more planets that have been found to modify the influences bestowed. Technically, every angle between planets creates an aspect, but some angles are more significant than others.
Astrology divides these aspects into "Major" and "Minor" categories. Minor aspects are used primarily in astrological research and for very precisely directed work, so we stick to the Major aspects in our general work. The major aspects are: Conjunction (same degree), Sextile (60 degrees), Square (90 degrees), Trine (120 degrees), and Opposition (180 degrees). Don't worry that some of these individual interpretations may seem to conflict with others. We look at the whole person, and the separate parts can modify, reinforce, or nullify each other.
We have pulled all this data together for you as it is displayed in your birth chart. This whole configuration can not be repeated or duplicated during your lifetime. Although the earth in its rotation around the Sun each year goes through all the twelve sign constellations and returns the Sun to its natal position, it takes Neptune 165 years and Pluto 248 years to complete their orbits. The planets are constantly moving their positions throughout the universe so that it is not possible for all the planetary positions and aspects to repeat themselves in your lifetime.
That leaves it up to us as individuals to deal with those influences imprinted upon us at birth and revealed through the horoscope. It is our hope, through astrology, that we may explain what those influences are and thus understand ourselves better. We have free will to make choices--choices which can affect those birth imprints in positive or negative ways. Probably no one of us will ever fulfill the "promises" of the natal chart in our lifetime, but hopefully, knowing what the influences are could help us to make some better choices.
PLANETARY SIGN AND HOUSE POSITIONS:
The following planetary sign and house positions are determined by YOUR birth data. There are 384 variations of these positions, as well as many other variables, but only 25 of them apply to each individual. The possibility of another person having the same combination of positions is practically non-existent.
The Sun and the Moon are known as the "Lights" and are not planets in the technical sense of the word. However, they are the most visible and perhaps more influential in affecting man's awareness than all of the other heavenly bodies put together. The blend of the Sun-Moon influences, from the signs they are in, and whether they are in aspect or not, are extremely significant to the personality profile of the new life. The relationship of the Sun and Moon to each other by their position, sign, and aspect and their relationship to the Ascendant can sometimes provide us with an extremely accurate mini-interpretation of the chart. The interpretation of your Sun-Moon combination is printed next. Study it carefully--as well as the next three Sun and Moon sign delineations.
PISCES SUN AND CANCER MOON--Two Water signs trine to each other, and the Moon rules the sign Cancer. This combination indicates deep intuitive feelings and intense emotionalism, which can be cultivated and enhanced by diplomacy and the appearance of shyness. The well of feelings springs from a deep treasure of ego awareness. When the Self is hurt, it is likely to be expressed by a martyr complex until self-knowledge is gained. You are sensitive, kind, caring, and thoughtful, and you can be very moody. You are quite understanding, but you can be somewhat impractical and idealistic. You could be a good doctor, nurse, or teacher. Your versatility can uncover many ways to gain an audience and communicate.
SUN IN THE TENTH HOUSE--The Sun in the houses represents the departments of life most strongly affected by the individual will and power potential. Tenth house position generally indicates persons who are ambitious to attain positions of responsibility, power, and authority. You are likely to be rather dignified and you have a strong will to succeed. You desire honor and recognition and will work hard to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to achieve your goals. You are probably a good manager and demand respect. You also want to set a good example for others. You need to watch out for an excessive love of power and for dictatorial attitudes.
MOON IN CANCER--In mythology the Moon is always female--as the Sun is always male. In most ancient religions and cults, the Moon represents the female force which reflects the male force of the Sun. In astrology, "she" bestows her indiscriminative influences upon both male and female alike, though each sex might respond to the influences in different ways. The Moon in the signs indicates the emotional responses to life's situations. It determines how you are likely to react to external influences and to the actions of others.
The Moon is ruler of Cancer, and in this sign it indicates depth and intensity of the emotions. Cancer is a water sign, and a wide range of your emotions can best be expressed by tears. You also probably like to live--or at least to spend time--by a large body of water: river, lake, or ocean.
You have a sensitivity to the moods and feelings of others that can border on the psychic. Your extreme sensitivity to others' feelings can put you in a position to be emotionally ripped off by those less healthy. You need to choose your friends and associates carefully, trying to keep optimistic, enthusiastic, up-beat people around you as much as possible.
Cancer is the sign of the mother--whether you are male or female. Family is important to you and you are strongly connected to family pride and tradition. You are likely to have extended family ties and interests. Home is a basic need for you, a safe haven from which most of your interests and activities originate.
You may be slow to fall in love, but when you do, it could be "forever". You will be very protective of those you love, and maybe a little bit jealous. It will make you happy to be able to serve those you love and to give to them freely and often. You will remember birthdays and special occasions and be driven to acknowledge them.
You are inclined to withdraw and brood. You need time to yourself to release and rest your emotions. Domestic security and marriage are important to your emotional well-being. You may be a good cook/homemaker if you're interested, and you are likely to be a good parent, with the exception of a tendency to smother your offspring with love.
MOON IN THE SECOND HOUSE--The Moon in the houses indicates the areas of daily activity through which your feelings are manifested, and gives clues to the type of activity on the domestic scene. Second House position indicates that your general emotional well-being is dependent upon material comfort. It indicates a strong need for monetary security to establish a stable home and family situation. You probably have good business ability in matters dealing with food, home and real estate. You need to watch out for tendencies toward unreasonable possessiveness and jealousy.
MERCURY IN AQUARIUS--Mercury in the signs gives clues to the kinds of concerns that occupy your mind, and reveals your psychological approach to making decisions and conveying your ideas to others. You are likely to have a fondness for science, generally, as well as the occult and the metaphysical. You should be apt in study, mathematics, inventiveness, and business methods. Probably a great reader, deep thinker, sociable and kind, you can expound greatly on humanitarian principles. This position of Mercury indicates a mind that is open to new experience; truthful, unbiased and objective. You seek mental stimulation through friendship, and convey your ideas well in group and organizational work.
MERCURY IN THE NINTH HOUSE--Mercury in the houses deals with the practical affairs that occupy your mind, and shows what areas of activity will be influenced by your thoughts and communications. In the ninth house position, it indicates an interest in higher education, or professions requiring advanced degrees. Many teachers and professors have Mercury in this house. Interest in philosophies can be strong. Your decisions include moral and ethical considerations as well as the practical. You need to guard against intellectual pride and snobbery, and not allow yourself to become dogmatic and sectarian in your opinions and beliefs.
VENUS IN PISCES--Venus in the signs indicate how you express your emotions in personal relationships, especially in love and marriage. It also provides clues to your attitudes toward money, personal possessions, creature comforts, and social and aesthetic values. Venus is in its exaltation in the sign Pisces, and the love principle reaches its highest evolutionary development. Your deep compassion and sympathy verges on spirituality and may be expressed that way. You are romantic and sensitive, and unless you recognize clear demonstrations of love and affection from others, you may feel lonely and disappointed. You need to avoid letting disappointments develop into martyrdom. Your extreme emotional sensitivity can make you afraid of being hurt by rejection, which can cause you to hesitate to express your feelings. The clear message here is to practice risking expression to avoid missing friendships and romantic opportunities. Try not to allow your strong emotions stand in the way of objectivity in your perspective of reality.
VENUS IN THE ELEVENTH HOUSE--Venus in the houses indicates how you express yourself socially, artistically, and romantically in the various areas of your life. In the eleventh house, it indicates warm friendships and relationships established through group activities. Kindness gets kindness in return. You will have many friends of the opposite sex. Friends often become romantic partners and romantic partners often become good friends. Strong alliances with musicians and other artists are strongly indicated.
MARS IN CAPRICORN--Mars in the signs indicates how desire affects your modes of action and through what types of expression action will be taken. In Capricorn it channels great energy into professional ambition. Your actions are likely to be well organized and carefully calculated to achieve professional success. You will have an intense desire for status and recognition, and can be extremely materialistic. Capricorn provides the most practical and effective use of the Mars energy--you need practical reasons for everything you do, so the energy you use is usually highly effective. You are likely to possess extraordinary self control and discipline. You have no sympathy for laziness and lack of ambition and you take pride in doing a job correctly.

PLANETARY ASPECTS:
Following are the interpretations of the planetary aspects to each other. Aspects are angular relationships between two or more planets that have been found to modify the influences bestowed. Significant angles are: Conjunction (same degree), Sextile (60 degrees), Square (90 degrees), Trine (120 degrees), and Opposition (180 degrees). Don't worry that some of these individual interpretations seem to conflict. Remember--we look at the whole person, and the separate parts can modify, reinforce, or nullify each other.
SUN SQUARE THE NORTH NODE--This square can inhibit your individual expression because of larger events in your society and your feeling out of phase with the times. It could especially affect your social and romantic life. The key here is a watchful and waiting attitude without force and impulsiveness.
SUN SQUARE THE ASCENDANT--This square can create conflict between your individuality and the way you present yourself to the world. It can also set up a conflict between your spiritual consciousness and the expression of your physical personality. You probably plunge into action precipitously.

Mars provides action to Moon's emotions without the process of thought. It can be especially upsetting in family relationships, where patience and caution should be cultivated.

INTERPRETATION, PERSONALITY PROFILE
Getting together all the information that makes up the face of your chart has primarily been mathematical and scientific--in a word, technical. The computer has used the date, time, and place of your birth to select and print out the interpretations of your Sun-sign, your Rising Sign (Ascendant), the Signs on the Houses, the Signs and Houses the Planets are in, and the aspects of the Planets to each other. These interpretations apply only to YOU.
In interpreting the total Personality Profile, however, we must add two more dimensions to the technical: "Symbolism" and "Intuition". These operate mainly from our subconscious mind. Allow your intuition full play as you carefully study the face of the chart and allow its symbolism to "speak" to you. Often the chart can provide a key which opens the subconscious. If you don't consciously "feel" anything, don't worry about it. Just allow the full power of your intuition to apply, and keep your mind as open as you possibly can.
Now go back and read the printouts again: all the way from the Sun-sign through the aspects of Pluto. Try not to reject any statement--not those you dislike, or even those you like. Note any statement which you strongly agree or disagree with, and mark it for later study. Then add all statements which seem to contradict each other to the list. When you study the "contradictive" statements, try to determine if any of them might apply to you at a different time, or in a different place. Then consider if the pair could modify each other and produce an interpretation that does apply to you.
Astrology is not judgmental--it just IS. It doesn't tell us what is "good" or "bad", it only tells us what the influences are. We give the most optimistic and positive interpretation to that information that we possibly can. However, it has been our experience that often the most valuable information we can get from a chart is the awareness of those obstacles and stresses we need to overcome in order to grow and fulfill our lives according to our own individual value systems.
