Chart Patterns
Funnel, focal planet Saturn
You have the planetary pattern type called the ‘funnel’ shape. All your planets form a group, with the exception of the focal point - one or two planets in conjunction. Your energies tend to be channelled through this focus. You will have abilities in the occupied area of the chart, and goals in the direction of the focal point. The focal planet(s) symbolizes how your energies will be expressed, and where you seek to have your needs met or achieve your purpose.
Saturn in the Fourth House (or sign) gives a deepening and concentrating, or blockage in the expression of the feelings. You may seem to be rigid and unemotional, or emotionally unavailable and can tend to withdraw from emotional involvement that’s too close. You may have had problems with parental care and guidance in your early years, so that your home and family life is quite important to you, but you also feel the need to escape it. Potentially, you have a fixation with one or both parents and a tendency to live in the past. You need to work through your issues in this area because security is very important to you and may take the form of striving for achievement or material rewards. You may display a tendency to introversion and strong psychic powers. Your lesson is to more fully and deeply understand and value your true origins, leading to a better sense of security and greater self-acceptance. The personal and intimate world of your feelings must be accepted and integrated, rather than remaining locked away behind the barriers of fear and isolation.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Saturn in Scorpio (or the eighth house) gives a strong personality with intense emotions. There can be a deepening and concentration, or blockage of your feeling nature so that many and complex emotions are generated. You are shrewd, apt to be secretive and may have something of a power-complex. You can be prone to jealousy too and are likely to have fears surrounding the issue of emotional closeness, sexuality and being able to give of yourself. You may suffer greatly through thwarted desire and fear the blending of your life with another, yet paradoxically that sense of oneness is quite important to you, even longed for. Your reactions to events may seem to be almost automatically determined at a deep subconscious level, so that you are actually unfamiliar with your true motivation and you may become a student of the occult, as a means to explore the dark realms within your psyche. Your lesson is to learn to master and bring to consciousness the hidden drives within you, transforming this energy into healing power, both for yourself and others around you.
The Sole Dispositor of your chart is
Mercury in Gemini (6° Gem 47′)
Ruler of sun sign – sun’s ruler
The Sole Dispositor helps form your core personality. It ultimately rules all the other planets of your chart:
Mercury in Gemini gives a keen, alert and expressive mentality. You have great versatility and can take up many different skills. You also love variety in your life and are constantly perceiving the world around you and relaying those perceptions to your mind. You approach mental pursuits in an intellectual rather than a practical way and tend to prefer breadth to depth in these matters. You speak rapidly and well and enjoy conversation with many different types of people, but you are restless and prone to anxiety. Beware of stress to your nerves. It is beneficial for you to cultivate periods of inner stillness.
Mercury in the Tenth House represents a strong mental connection between your inner awareness and your career or professional ambitions in the world. With this placement, you have a diplomatic bent and the makings of a good teacher. You are also likely to learn quickly from hands-on training or the practical application of knowledge. You take your intellectual attainment seriously and in your highest manifestation, make use of it to better society around you. Determined and careful in your speech and communication with others, (as well as with respect to your own mental activity) you have good concentration and attention to detail. You are also acutely aware of your surroundings and can help keep others on track with reality. You benefit from lifting your vision to higher issues and cultivating idealism.
Grand Trine
You have a Grand Trine in your chart. When three or more of your planets form a Grand Trine with each other, you will have an exceptional area of talent represented by the element in the trine, either Fire, Earth, Air or Water (usually these planets are in just one element). You will display a marked self-sufficiency and also will have good success in your endeavors in this area of life, but you must also beware of being lazy or complacent.
T-Square, focal planet Saturn
You have a T-Square in your chart. With this planetary aspect pattern, in which three planets or conjunctions are in square with one another, you have a high degree of motivation and drive. Your energies are most easily and habitually expressed by the energy of the focal point, the middle of the T-Square. You may also compensate for overdoing in the area of life represented by the focal point, by leaning toward the empty pattern element opposite the focal point, seeking to balance your activity. The lesson of this planetary aspect pattern is in learning to use your considerable energy wisely in the pursuit of your true goals. There is great tension represented by the focal planet or planets in your chart, where conflicting parts of your personality attain their focus and peak of energy and you may observe compulsive behavior in the area of life represented here.
Important Features
Saturn in Scorpio (21° Sco 26′R)
Saturn in the Fourth House
Focal planet of planetary pattern
See above.
Moon in Aquarius (19° Aqu 05′ 54″)
Moon in the Seventh House
Leading planet of planetary pattern
The Moon in Aquarius gives a socially minded and progressive personality. You are charming and gracious, but can also be somewhat unstable or erratic in your behavior. Although you are consistently kind to other people, you may come across as somewhat cold and distant because you have a mental rather than an emotional nature. You desire to be an active force for good in the world and are likely to achieve that lofty aim. There is also great originality in your thoughts, but you would benefit from spending more time with your emotions.
The Moon in the Seventh House represents an emotional sensitivity in the area of interpersonal relationships. You are likely to be very social and may be quite popular, but you feel most comfortable and ‘in harmony’ when you are in some form of intimate partnership with someone who reflects your emotions back to you. You are very aware of how others affect you as an emotional being and you become more aware of yourself when you perceive your effects on those close to you. In fact, you can easily become emotionally dependent on other people and may attract a sensitive and moody partner whom you can nurture. You may also find yourself engaged in an emotional balancing act between yourself and another. It may be difficult for you to perceive yourself as a separate or unique individual outside your intimate relationships, so its important for you to learn how to value your own emotional needs, wants and desires, independent of the partnership energy which you connect to habitually.
Mercury in Gemini (6° Gem 47′)
Mercury in the Tenth House
Sole dispositor of chart planets
See above.
Sun in Gemini (10° Gem 26′ 39″)
Sun in the Eleventh House
Ruler of rising sign
The Sun in Gemini represents your will and purpose, your sense of vitality and your evolving higher Self. In Gemini it is Mutable-Air, and rules the arms, the shoulders and the lungs, while your ruling planet is Mercury. Gemini is the sign associated with communication, logical thought processes (based on duality) and the conscious mind. Gemini people tend to be airy and intellectual, glib of tongue and curious about life and other people. You can experience two sides of things at the same time, and you may tend to be flighty. Moving through life like a butterfly, you may engage in many varied experiences to gain knowledge and you are witty with a good sense of humour. You are also likely to be an excellent conversationalist and make a good teacher, but you can be nervous and highly-strung too, with a mischievous bent. You tend toward liberty in relationships and can be easily bored, but under the control of self-discipline, you have tremendous intellectual and artistic possibilities.
The Sun in the Eleventh House represents a concentration of one’s vital force to belong, to function as part of a group consciousness and to integrate with the human family. You enjoy membership with groups and may find your identity in that way. You may also be drawn to a collective awareness that has a specific social, humanitarian, religious or political purpose. In whatever groups you choose to participate in, you easily align your ideals and sense of purpose with those of the collective and your sense of group awareness leads you to become a focus of leadership within the group. Whether a formal group leader, or an influential friend among a group of friends, your awareness of connectivity impacts those in your circles and opens them to sharing common goals and objectives. Your intuitive awareness of collective needs, wants and desires may give you a sense of having a mission in life. Surrounding yourself with like-minded people gives you a sense of security and meaning and you may even be vulnerable to losing your personal identity to a group cause or belief system. You can transcend this difficulty by creating friendships where you can bond with individuals, rather than common collective ideals. You also benefit by identifying your unique attributes as an individual and becoming aware of how you fit within a group dynamic, in order to recognize your personal purpose within the collective mind.
Uranus in Pisces (28° Pis 59′)
Uranus in the Eighth House
Uranus in the Eighth House (or sign) gives an individual who is willful and possesses great depth of passion. You have a keen intuition and immense power to transform yourself and your personal relationships as you evolve. You may also be fascinated with sexuality, issues of death and rebirth and you can also be quite psychic. The search for depth connection with the divine in you and in others is intriguing and you may delve deeply into occult studies. You are likely to have an unconventional approach where sexual matters are concerned and may be challenged in interpersonal relationships. You may even experience loss throughout your life due to the sudden departure or unexpected death of a loved one. Such trials can serve a deeper purpose in your life, since transformation is a necessary step for you in the area of intimacy. The application of will and the ability to look inside yourself for your own unique answers may bring about a better understanding of the deeper relations between yourself and other.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Uranus in Pisces (or the twelfth house) gives an understanding and helpful personality. With this placement you may feel some confinement or restriction in your freedom to be who you want to be, but your intuition is strong. However, you are inclined to nervousness and may suffer from over sensitivity. Inner goals are more important for you than conventional ones. You are also restless and not entirely at home in the physical plane, so you may seek relief in drugs or other forms of escapism. You have an intense desire to commune more directly with the divine within you, but it doesn’t easily find its realization in mundane activities. You are likely to be psychically in tune with others and you may have an interest in mysticism or the occult. You are also dedicated to the service of humanity at large and these ideals will strongly affect the expression of your individuality. You may have a need to confront the past manifested in subconscious or habitual patterns) in order to outgrow its effects on your own life.
Venus in Aries (28° Ari 45′)
Venus in the Ninth House
Angular planet – conjunct Midheaven
Venus in Aries gives an energetic and outward-directed love nature. With this placement your love and relationship energy is impulsive and enthusiastic, so that you are loads of fun to be around. You are also likely to have strong artistic inclinations, but you may be rather quick to take offense. Passionate and restless in all forms of relationship, you may prefer to be the one that takes the initiative – at least when it suits you to do so. You are an ardent lover and may need to develop a sustaining quality to your passion in order for the relationship to last. You can also be inconsiderate at times, without seeming to be aware of it. Rather than placing all the emphasis on yourself, you benefit from learning to see from other points of view.
Venus in the Ninth House represents a strong connection within you between your sense of aesthetics, including what you value, and your higher mind, philosophy or religion. You are drawn to higher learning and the spiritual principles underlying belief systems. You may also be attracted to philosophical structures that express the fundamental idea of right living and right relationship. Learning from contact with other cultures appeals to you as well and you have an affectionate personality with good intuition. You tend to be idealistic in your approach to love, but changeable in the expression of your love interest, seeking the adventure of new connections. Overall, you are a perpetual learner, with a love of exploring through travel and other means of broadening your horizons. You may even feel called to educational pursuits as a way to express your enthusiasm. If you are inclined to self-expression in the arts, it may be regarding these more philosophically active areas, in written, spoken or graphical form.
Mars in Pisces (20° Pis 44′)
Mars in the Eighth House
Mars in the Eighth House (or sign) gives a passionate and intense personality, proud, strong-willed and stubborn. Your sexual nature is very important to you and feel the instinctive level of your being powerfully. You are quite sure of yourself, have a noticeable presence and strong influence on those around you and like to get your own way. You also enjoy giving the gift of your affection and partnership-sharing is an important mode of activity for you as your urge for personal security is strong. When you begin to engage with the higher levels of your consciousness, you also have the capacity to be a great healer. In general, you benefit when you cultiate self-discipline and strive for objective over selfish motivations.
Mars in Pisces (or the twelfth house) gives a sensitive and retiring nature with a tendency to be withdrawn. You are easily influenced by others and can sometimes be moody and introspective. You also get lost in your dreams at times and it may be, at these times, that only your inner world is real. You tend to resent and be discontent with your situation or that of society and you tire easily, because your physical energy is somewhat variable. You may need to work through a lack of straightforwardness with others and it benefits you greatly to stand up for your beautiful sense of truth. You need to learn to be more decisive in relation to the affairs of the world around you. In essence, your quiet exterior masks a restlessly searching interior process, which strives for nothing less than the transformation of yourself and society into a more ideal system.
Chiron in Taurus (0° Tau 24′)
Chiron in the Ninth House
Angular planet – conjunct Midheaven
Chiron in the Ninth House (or sign) represents issues with one’s vital force of abstracting and understanding universal truth. This placement can lead to high achievement in the scholastic arena, but it may be nagging doubts that you are not really good enough which spur you on, rather than a pure love of learning. There is likely to be some form of painful realization surrounding the pursuit of wisdom, or perhaps in the area of philosophy or religion. It may be that parental figures had different notions than you did, of what makes the world go round, and now, in your adult life, you feel the pull of the beat to a distant drummer. However, you feel ambivalent, or not sure enough of yourself to really do anything about it. In your frustration you may even seek to help other people to work out their own concepts of higher knowledge, while you yourself remain stuck in the mud of prior patterns. If so, you need to shake off the shackles of the past and explore your own philosophical values and visions. Perhaps by delving into what associations you have with bad models from early childhood, you can begin to more fully and completely inhabit the values that belong to your higher self. Then you can truly shine in the world of ideas, as you move out from your own center, rather than the point of balance represented by other, more alien, philosophies.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Chiron in Taurus (or the Second House) represents issues with one’s vital force to attain sustenance and possess resources. With this placement of Chiron, you are challenged by physical resources or perhaps spiritual resources, because the physical often reflects the spiritual. You may be one who has seen everything taken away at one time or another, or you may have risen above challenging circumstances materially to a better economic standard than your upbringing conditioned you to expect. Either way, you may demonstrate a painful attitude toward material well-being. Perhaps you have a fear of possessions dominating your life. Where others are able to count on their resources, either materially, or physically, or within their own psyche, and trust that they will have whatever it is that they need, you always find yourself suspicious that it will not last. Even if what you have is more than adequate by some standards, it seems somehow not enough to satisfy you. You may dream of giving everything up and moving to the country. These feelings may also spill over into deep issues regarding your core values – that which defines you in terms of what you choose to support and give credence to in the world. You may feel at sea in this area and not on stable ground and perhaps be envious of other people who seem more sure of themselves in this area. These ambivalent feelings toward material possessions and your values may find their roots in experiences from early childhood, in which you were criticized or otherwise had painful experiences around what you wanted for yourself, independently from the expectations of your parents, or other significant persons in your early life. Sometimes these issues are so painful that it is easier not to deal with them directly and you may find that working with other people’s material security becomes a focus in your life. In this way, you can work on your issues in safety, rather than confront potentially painful realizations buried in the depths of your psyche. But getting more in touch with these deep and partially repressed feelings is of ultimate importance for you, as your consciousness evolves. When you have confronted those parts of yourself that are painful and scary and begin to integrate the feelings you have buried away, you will be more in charge of your own ship and the course you take through life.
Neptune in Leo (22° Leo 13′)
Neptune in the First House
Neptune in the First House (or sign) gives an attractive personality with a strong psychic sensitivity and an inclination to mysticism and the arts. You can be vague or discontented with life in the material plane and can also be somewhat self-deceptive. You relate to others around you with a compassion and empathy that is quite appealing and may be even too sensitive to their needs, or overly inclined to sacrifice yourself for their benefit. You are also able to influence images in the minds of others and can therefore seem to be different things to different people. Therefore, your own understanding of who you really are can come into question, especially if you seek to define yourself by these images. You could experience confusion regarding the true motivating factors in your life and you benefit from starting to pay attention to your inner voice and learning to follow its guidance, rather than depending on the changing reflections of those around you.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Neptune in Leo (or the fifth house) gives a highly creative individual who is helpful and kind. You are also likely to be artistic or musical and you are softhearted. You may perhaps be even too willing to surrender yourself for the good of others and tend to be very self-sacrificing with children, giving of yourself without receiving much in return. You may also experience difficulties in feeling free to simply assert yourself. Your creative energies run to the mystical and you are simultaneously present with other people and yet paradoxically also far, far away. You have the soul of a romantic, with a powerful imagination and can be a good actor both professionally and in everyday life. You potentially have a great creative and healing capacity for other people, based on universal and spiritual energies rather than on personal ones. You could benefit by striving to bring your imaginative energies to the world in a form that transcends purely egocentric creativity.
Pluto in Cancer (13° Can 23′)
Pluto in the Twelfth House
Pluto in the Twelfth House (or sign) gives a “divine discontent” to the personality. With this placement, you may feel confined and limited in the physical world, perhaps feeling more at home in the world of unconscious fantasy. There may be a way that you are not accepting your own power and you may compulsively try to escape the physical plane of existence, by whatever means come readily to you. Overall, you are likely to feel pre-occupied with your own inner world, or may find yourself so sensitive to the pain and suffering of others that you retreat from fully involving yourself with them. There are places within yourself where you fear to tread and the danger is that you are denying an important part of yourself in the process. You have a deep need for spiritual renewal that does not easily find its resolution in everyday activity and you may experience confusion and a loss of identity, until you make an effort to move toward a more universal sense of self. You need to learn to subordinate your personal will to a more spiritual outlook based on the true needs of others and the life of the world around you.
The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:
Pluto in Cancer (or the fourth house) gives you an intense desire for emotional security. Your security needs may manifest as a fixation for a place to reside which can be completely safe, or controlled. You also have a strong survival urge and are likely to go through many changes in relation to your home environment as you go through life. You may have suffered early on from an unsettled family existence. You perhaps experienced one of your parents as obsessive or controlling in some way. However, you may have increasingly clear insight into your own unconscious motivations, as well as the emotional depths of others as you mature. On the other hand, you may find that confronting issues of deep trauma that arise in the course of events is too much for you to handle and you may attempt to repress these insights. As a defence, you may be obsessively attached to making a home environment for yourself that is exactly the way you want it. There could be a tendency for dictatorial behavior on the home front or other compulsive behavior in search of safety and security, such as seeking isolation rather than sharing. These struggles can be avoided through a deeper understanding of what is truly needed on an emotional level. Your challenge is to transform your need for security based on a better understanding of your own hidden motivations.
Jupiter in Aquarius (26° Aqu 50′)
Jupiter in the Seventh House
Jupiter in the Seventh House (or sign) gives you a refined and idealistic nature. You are easily influenced by others and may have great difficulty in making a decision, especially when you start to take into consideration all of the possibilities that suggest themselves to you. However you work well with other people and are known for your fairness. You will always champion both sides of a dispute and make sure that the underdog has his say for you are thoughtful and diplomatic. You are also likely to be very social and attractive to others. Other people matter to you in an extraordinary way, which can be both a blessing and a curse. You are also a great lover of art and beauty wherever you find it, but you may tend to scatter your focus and could benefit from more firmly concentrating your energies to serve your own inner motivation.
Jupiter in Aquarius (or the eleventh house) gives you a socially conscious and scientifically-minded personality. You are an individual who works well with groups, are very high-minded and have strong humanitarian ideals. Inventive and original, you are able to motivate others by your example and would make a good diplomat or politician. You don’t value security on a personal level, but focus your ideals on the betterment of society, with a value-system that is uniquely yours. You have firmly in mind, a concept of the finest possibilities for the social matrix that surrounds you. Although you may be seen as a bit eccentric, because you march to the beat of your own drum, you are humane and just, with very high principles, although you may envision possibilities too vast to be achieved. You benefit from cultivating a more practical approach in some circumstances.

Sun, Moon, Rising Sign Features
Leo Rising
Leo Rising is Fixed-Fire, and rules the heart and spine. Its planet is the Sun. Leo people are very dramatic and creative, self-confident and assertive. They expect to be the center of attention and often are. With tremendous energy, they also possess great courage and honesty and are natural leaders. Leo is quite proud and its challenge is not to be arrogant or egotistical, but rather to develop humility and compassion and learn detachment in the gift of its affections.
Sun in strong sextile
(within 2.6 degrees) with Ascendant
Ruler of rising sign
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.
This aspect between the Sun and the Ascendant gives a strong-willed and generous personality. You are dramatic and assertive, creative, self-confident and perhaps 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 likely to be a natural born leader. Although you can be inclined to rest on your laurels, (relying on your charisma to get you through, rather than spurring yourself on to action) your challenge is to actualize your great potential.
Moon in opposition
within 6.0 degrees) with Ascendant
Leading planet of planetary pattern
The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.
This aspect between the Moon and the 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 are important to you and you have a habit of moodiness, with your emotions frequently changing. This can create problems in relating to others. In fact, 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 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.
Uranus in sesquiquadrate
(within 0.9 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; control is required.
This aspect between Uranus and the Ascendant gives an eccentric and strong-willed individual. You love freedom from conventionality and are inclined to be reckless. Periodically, you start over in your life, completely eliminating previous foundations. You are also inclined to be somewhat nervous and impatient, with a tendency to shy away from commitment and responsibility. But you are an original and independent thinker with an active, scientific mind, futuristic in outlook and you are capable of bringing new ideas into being. You benefit when you try 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.
Pluto in semi-sextile
(within 0.3 degrees) with Ascendant
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information.
This aspect between Pluto and the Ascendant gives a personality with a focus on being recognized and admired. You have strong desires and are single-minded about pursuing them, with an urge toward self-transformation. You may go through many changes in your life and have underlying feelings of insecurity leading to rather self-centered and ego-oriented behavior. This behavior can change, however, through concerted effort. You tend to champion the underdog and react strongly to social injustice. However, when you train your considerable energy on socially-oriented rather than purely personal goals, you can become a focal point for the transformation of society.
Sun in Gemini (10° Gem 26′ 39″)
Sun in the Eleventh House
Ruler of rising sign
See above.
Sun in strong sextile
(within 2.6 degrees) with Ascendant
See above.
Sun in conjunction
(within 3.7 degrees) with Mercury
Sole dispositor of chart planets
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.
The Sun and Mercury conjunction gives a person who values mental pursuits highly. Your logical and communicative abilities are excellent and you are quick-witted and glib, but you can also be nervous and highly-strung. Sometimes your stubbornness can make it difficult to shake you from your opinions, but you are an independent thinker with your own way of looking at things. You may be inspired and even visionary in your outlook. Although you value your mind – when the Sun and Mercury are quite close to each other, within a few degrees – you may be more inclined to take a broad view of life’s activities and not consider things from a strictly mental orientation.
Sun in quintile
(within 0.6 degrees) with Uranus
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.
This aspect between the Sun and Uranus gives an independent and strong-willed individual. You love freedom from conventionality and like to start new projects, or make changes in your life. You are an original and independent thinker, but may have issues with commitment and responsibility. Your task is to fully express your visionary impulses in order to make these more concretely available in your own life and in the life of society around you.
Sun in quintile
(within 0.2 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.
This aspect between the Sun and Neptune gives a sensitive and creative individual. You are somewhat unworldly and likely to be artistic or musical. You may also be open to mysticism or the exploration of other dimensions through psychic perceptions. Softhearted, you may be perhaps even too willing to sacrifice yourself for the good of others and you may find your life’s calling in the helping professions, for your compassion is strong. Your aim is to achieve a balance between the spiritual dimensions of reality and ordinary life.
Moon in Aquarius (19° Aqu 05′ 54″)
Moon in the Seventh House
Leading planet of planetary pattern
See above.
Moon in strong square
(within 2.4 degrees) with Saturn
Focal planet of planetary pattern
The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.
This aspect between the Moon and Saturn means you may appear to be rigid, rather letting your emotions flow freely. There is a deepening and concentrating, or blockage in the expression of your feelings and 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 could 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 can spill over to the significant women in your life, or 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. 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 strong opposition
(within 3.1 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.
This aspect between the Moon and Neptune gives an emotionally sensitive, idealistic and loving personality. You possess an ethereal quality and are likely to be imaginative or even to withdraw from the world into internal fantasies of your own. You may also have powerful psychic abilities. Being the softhearted type, you are perhaps even 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 also have issues with self-deception or experience discontent with the practical realities of life because the urge within you to seek the highest ideal is very strong. 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 self-control in holding back your emotions, as well as clarity in applying your high ideals to the real world of logic and fact.
Moon in quintile
within 2.3 degrees) with Venus
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.
This aspect of the Moon and Venus gives a calm and steady emotional nature, with a refined and artistic sensibility. You are habitually cheerful and are likely to be happiest in your home and family. It is important for you that your home is aesthetically pleasing. Possessing a great deal of personal charm, you also have a love of the arts. You are also courteous, popular and supportive to your friends.
Moon in semi-sextile
(within 1.6 degrees) with Mars
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information.
This aspect between the Moon and Mars gives an individual who is easily influenced by emotional conditions. You can be a deep thinker, but you may be intolerant of opinions other than your own and can appear selfish and demanding at times. You may suffer from a sort of nervous tension, in that you are unsatisfied when you are not in action and have a rebellious streak that affects your close personal relationships. However, you are an analytical and independent thinker with an original, active and even brilliant mind.
Moon in inconjunct
(within 5.7 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed.
This aspect between the Moon and Pluto gives a moody and introspective personality with a strong desire for emotional security. You are likely to have a tendency to become absorbed in interpersonal relationships. As a forceful individual, you have the urge to transform yourself and your surroundings and you also have an unusually clear insight into the emotional depths of other people. There is also an urge to break through the limitations of what you may have experienced as controlling behavior on the part of one or both parents, especially your mother. 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.
Moon in quintile
(within 0.7 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.
With this aspect of Moon and Chiron there are difficulties indicated in relating to the feminine – either significant female presences in your life, or else and including your own feminine side. Of course the important early model for the feminine is mother, and it is likely that there was intelligent communication of wisdom, but also painful experiences between you. If these experiences became so painful they may have been suppressed from consciousness and buried deep in your psyche. In your adult life, it is important to move past any resentment you still feel, caused by early wounding in your relationship with the female, or nurturing influence, so that you can begin to move into a more conscious and compassionate reconciliation with your walled-off parts. Once you have begun to make conscious any pain and alienation you may feel surrounding events from the long-buried past, you can begin to truly help others as well as yourself, and let your creative side emerge.

N Node in Cancer (16° Can 54′)
N Node in the Twelfth House
Lunar North Node in the Twelfth House (or sign).
South Node in the sixth house or sign. This placement gives you a personality with a focus on spiritual rather than worldly concerns. Although the practical matters of everyday life come easily to you, you do not find your true happiness in the pursuit of mundane affairs, but seek constantly to expand your horizons mentally and spiritually to a larger and more inclusive context. This may be difficult, for the pull of everyday life is very strong in you, and in many ways it is what you do best. In the past, or in previous lifetimes, you made your focus in refining your abilities in the practical world. At that time, you dealt mainly with issues of personal health, or of the welfare of others in small but important ways. Now, in this lifetime, your focus gradually shifts to a higher plane of activity. You find your true happiness not so much in day-today routine, but in sacrificing yourself to a higher purpose – to advancing beyond the material world, with a disregard for your own well-being. You find yourself going deep within yourself to bring forth a renewed understanding of how to serve others by giving up your personal ego-involvement in your actions. Your challenge is to become an example of a more spiritually based society, in helping others with true compassion.
Lunar North Node in Cancer (or the fourth house). South Node in the tenth house or sign. This placement gives a strong desire for emotional security. You may feel you are a special person – a person of great achievements – and you may even feel isolated in your singularity, for in the past or in previous lifetimes you spent a great deal of your energy on getting to the top. But as the refrain goes, “It’s lonely at the top” and your focus now will be on getting a better sense of who you really are, at the level of your emotional roots. You will find as you advance in your life, that your home life is extremely important to you. Exploring the depths of your being through meditation or some sort of transpersonal process work will also be extremely beneficial. Although you may feel tempted to go out and achieve in the world of career and public life, for which you have a natural affinity, it is in the area of establishing a secure base of operations, and of nurturing your immediate community of friends and family that you find your greatest fulfillment, this time around.
Eris in Aries (1° Ari 09′)
Eris in the Ninth House
The newest planet to be officially named, even though termed a “dwarf planet” along with Pluto, Eris was discovered in 2005 from plates going back to 2003, and originally nicknamed Xena. Among the astrological meanings that can be attributed to Eris is the struggle against injustice and oppression.
The Ninth House represents intuition and the study of religion philosophy, and higher learning. In addition, it represents travel to other countries, and legal matters. This house represents the expansion of horizons, mental, physical and spiritual. Planets in this house may symbolize your philosophical pursuits, or possibilities for travel.

Venus in strong sextile
(within 1.9 degrees) with Jupiter
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.
This aspect of Venus and Jupiter gives a refined and idealistic nature. You always see the big picture, but may miss out on the practicalities along the way. Incredibly optimistic, you see opportunity in everything. Therefore, you may 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. However, you are a great lover of art and beauty and are very social and attractive.
Venus in strong conjunction
(within 1.6 degrees) with Chiron
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.
This combination of Venus and Chiron gives a personality that experiences difficulties with relationships. You are likely to have had painful experiences surrounding marriage and intimate partnerships, but there are also great rewards to be gained in this area. You are drawn to relationships at the same time that you fear them, so that you may have a strong focus on forming close emotional attachments. You may have had early childhood experiences that made it hard to accept the love of others in your adult life and with these impediments, you also may strongly desire to help other people, yet be unable to give them the full benefit of your higher self. It is good to make the effort to connect yourself consciously with any painful events that are buried in your unconscious, so that these will no longer have so much power over you. Once you have begun to integrate these painful feelings consciously and shed the baggage of earlier frustrations, you can be a more fully participating partner to others, and be more of help to them as well.
Mars in strong trine
(within 0.7 degrees) with Saturn
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
This aspect of Mars and Saturn means you tend to be reserved and desire to better yourself. It gives a deepening and concentration in the area of self-confidence and self-expression, so that the purposeful articulation of your will may be inhibited by subconscious fears. However, this can be overcome because you have unusually good reasoning power and your will is controlled and well organized. Your lesson is in striving to overcome your fears of self-expression and thus come to a better understanding of yourself and others.
Saturn in strong square
(within 0.8 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.
This combination of Saturn and Neptune gives a clear thinking and discriminating personality. Saturn brings an extremely practical dimension to the visionary idealism of Neptune. You are responsible and compassionate and take social issues very seriously. You may also have an artistic career or achieve much in the helping professions. However, there may be confusion in your life regarding restrictions imposed upon you, in which you feel both attracted to the security imposed by such limits and simultaneously repelled or stifled by these restrictions. You may suffer through many trials before learning to work with both the energies of stability and of idealism in an effort to balance between either extreme of behavior.

Mercury in septile
(within 0.4 degrees) with Sedna
The planetary energies darkly interact; incline to occult dimensions apart from socially accepted norms.
Venus in semi-sextile
(within 0.2 degrees) with Uranus
The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information.
This aspect of Venus and Uranus creates an individual who is independent and original in the expression of social activities and relationships. You are enthusiastic socially and attracted to the stimulation and excitement of new contacts. However, you may also be quite unpredictable at times, making it hard for others to get along with you. You are likely to have difficulty, for example, in settling down with one person in a romantic partnership and you may also appear to be immature, self-centered, or lacking in interest in the other person’s welfare, even though you are generally highly idealistic and humane in your outlook. You are also unconventional in your attitudes and occupy yourself with multiple interests and explorations. You can benefit from attempting to bring a steady and consistent focus to your many interests and activities.
Mars in inconjunct
(within 1.5 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed.
This aspect of Mars and Neptune makes an attractive personality with a psychic sensitivity and an inclination to mysticism and the arts. You possess a good understanding of and balance between the practical and the ideal. However you can also be vague regarding motives or discontented with life in the material plane. There may be issues with self-deception, or with deception practiced upon you by other people, so you benefit when you clarify your aims and learn to focus your power, becoming a channel for its higher use in your life and that of society around you.
Mars in semi-square
(within 0.3 degrees) with Midheaven
The planetary energies conflict in determined subtle tension; calmness is required.
With Mars and the Midheaven aspected, you are likely to be on the go most of the time. This creates an assertive personality who desires success in public life. You have a great drive to succeed and are active in the pursuit of your goals, with a tremendous energy that needs an outlet. Career issues are very important for you, although you may need to beware of too much ego-involvement in your work or professional life.
Jupiter in sextile
(within 3.6 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.
With this placement of Jupiter and Chiron you have a strong connection with spirituality and a great tendency to go your own way, rather than be subservient 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 didn’t feel a connection. These two planetary energies, Jupiter and Chiron, both have a strong spiritual component, but operate in different ways. But 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 goodwill of Spirit. In fact, positive outlooks can become something of an obsession with you, so that friends and associates are amazed ay your unflagging optimism. You make a very a helpful companion. You also 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 institution.

Social ideals will strongly affect the expression of your individuality.
Uranus in sesquiquadrate
(within 0.9 degrees) with Ascendant
See above.
Pluto in quintile
(within 1.0 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.
With this aspect of Pluto and Chiron you are likely to possess a somewhat compulsive nature. There is a tendency to plunge into the depths of despair as well as the heights of manic madness, as a form of compensatory reaction to the over-indulgence of wallowing in the depths. Great depths of passion reside within you – likely the result of painful experiences from early childhood. But as long as these experiences remain unintegrated, they will cause a stir, both for yourself and anyone you become close to. However, when you become more conscious of these patterns, you will have a great capacity to heal yourself and others. You also have a keen intuition and great power to transform yourself and your personal relationships as you evolve.

(within 8.7 degrees) with Moon
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
This aspect of Sun and Moon gives a well-adjusted and stable personality. You proceed with confidence and a sense of well-being to accomplish what you set out to do and are likely to be healthy, optimistic and popular. You also look upon life’s problems as challenges to be overcome, rather than obstacles to success. You may have experienced your parents as harmoniously related and in your own relationships you expect sound communication and mutual understanding. Your family is important to you and you are poised and cheerful, with a free-flowing creativity. However, it benefits you to overcome complacent or lazy thinking and to rise to the challenge of tackling any problem areas in your life.
Sun in weak square
(within 10.3 degrees) with Mars
The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.
This aspect of the Sun and Mars creates a rash personality with a quick temper. You are daring and have great physical vitality and stamina, but you may lack patience and tend to be argumentative. Restless and with a forceful drive, you can accomplish great things, if your energies are properly harnessed. You are also likely to be excitable, run risks and be opinionated sometimes. As you have a tendency to take your own position at the expense of the others, you could be hard to talk with at times. Although you mean well, you need to temper your strong physical drive with calmness and judgment.
Moon in weak conjunction
(within 7.7 degrees) with Jupiter
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.
This conjunction of the Moon and Jupiter gives a loving, kind and nurturing personality, friendly and sociable, generous and high-minded. You possess an inherent spirituality, which is displayed not in philosophy, but in acts of love and caring and you work well with the public, attracting material rewards without seeming to try for them. You are a true humanitarian, honourable and dependable in your dealings with your fellow man, possessing a natural sense of security based on what was probably a happy childhood. There may be an inclination toward the poetical and mystical side of life.

(within 5.6 degrees) with Eris

(within 6.5 degrees) with Neptune

Imaginative and visionary, you are also compassionate and kind, and enjoy other people’s company. As you are a good listener, you have an unusual emotional empathy with other people ad can give a great deal without expecting anything in return. You dream of finding the perfect partner and have high ideals and benefit from developing a more discriminating attitude toward relationships generally. You need more confidence in valueing your own process.
Venus in weak conjunction
(within 7.3 degrees) with Midheaven
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.
This conjunction of Venus and the Midheaven creates 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 would do better to establish yourself in a business partnership rather than being employed on your own.
Mars in weak trine
(within 7.3 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
This aspect of Mars and Pluto gives a personality with a tremendous drive for power and transformation of self. You are strong-willed almost to the point of ruthlessness and you have enormous energy and endurance at your disposal. Although you may appear timid or unsure of yourself, since the power urge is repressed, there is the potential for sudden bursts of anger due to the repressed emotion finally exploding to the surface. There may also be feelings of insecurity which are compensated for by being overly forceful, acting compulsively or even becoming obsessive about achieving your will. In a more positive manifestation, you can exhibit a dedication to higher ideals and a willingness to be a channel for healing yourself and society. Your challenge is to move away from feelings of insecurity and the resulting isolation and loneliness, toward a better acceptance of other’s needs and opinions. In this way, you will generate wholeness, forgiveness towards self and others and a new and better sense of self-worth.
Jupiter in weak square
(within 5.4 degrees) with Saturn
The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.
This aspect of Jupiter and Saturn gives a serious and conscientious personality, but one that may be impractical. You are motivated to achieve success, but are likely to run into some self-imposed barriers on the road to achieving it. There is a gap between your ambition and what you actually accomplish. Although you tend not to be content with the extent of your responsibilities until you have taken on too much, this leads to the problem of actually fulfilling these obligations. You also may have too limited or narrow a view of your potential, so that you aim too low and garner less than you are capable of. This could lead to problems with your material well-being, or with being too cautious and thrifty for your own good. You can benefit from cultivating a more giving and generous attitude, greater contentment with your present resources and trying for a better balance between dreams and reality.
Jupiter in weak opposition
(within 4.6 degrees) with Neptune
The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.
This aspect of Jupiter and Neptune creates an imaginative and unassuming personality. You are good and kind, considerate of others, friendly and easy-going. However, you need to feel an emotional sympathy in order for your work to be satisfying to you. You are capable of great belief in the unknown and unproven and are inclined to the mystical, seeing life in terms of visionary and poetic feelings, rather than in practical terms. You may be even too much inclined to trust your imagination, which can cloud your powers of judgment, so you benefit from attempting a more practical and reality-based view of life.
Saturn in weak trine
(within 7.6 degrees) with Uranus
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
This aspect between Saturn and Uranus gives a practical, yet future-oriented personality. Definitely not a conformer, you have a strong imagination and good conceptual level. When you function at your best, you have the capability to bring a concrete and real-world practicality to the intangible and visionary Uranus energy. Your dynamic is to move from knee-jerk reactions, either for or against established authority, toward establishing your own personal authority, in your own way and to make your brilliant visionary impulses available to society at large.
Saturn in weak trine
(within 8.1 degrees) with Pluto
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
This aspect between Saturn and Pluto creates a forceful personality with a focus on issues of authority, power and control. You may have the charismatic personal magnetism of a natural leader and its also possible that occult studies will attract and fascinate you. You may find yourself with an ambivalence toward power, leading you to demonstrate rebellious attitudes toward established authority. You may seek a position of authority, for no other reason than to be your own master and then run into the difficulties inherent in maintaining such a stand, once achieved. This can work to your ultimate disadvantage, since the security of such a position can be a hindrance to necessary growth and transformation. What is needed is a re-evaluation and transformation of the urge for power and control, based on a deeper understanding of and more conscious and socially responsible use of personal power.
Neptune in weak trine
(within 8.2 degrees) with Chiron
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
With this combination of Neptune and Chiron, 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 and you may also be extremely sensitive to the psyches of others, even vicariously experiencing their pain. Something keeps you out of touch with consensus reality. Its 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. However, 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 in regard to the rest of society. You may exhibit great artistic 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.
Neptune in weak trine
(within 6.4 degrees) with Sedna
The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.
Chiron in weak conjunction
(within 5.6 degrees) with Midheaven
The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.
With this aspect of Chiron and the Midheaven, you likely to have issues around exerting personal will versus knuckling under to authority. You have enormous energy and endurance at your disposal, although you may appear timid or unsure of yourself, since your power urge is likely to be repressed. It may be that you have had many painful experiences with authority. As a result of these experiences, you may fear the expression of your own personal power, and alternate between complying with the standards of society around you, or rebelling against them. You may also avoid situations where a direct confrontation seems to be brewing. You may feel more empowered in helping others than in getting your own act together and this aspect can be the sign of someone with a career in the helping professions, perhaps involved with new age healing. It is often the case that the powerful emotions associated with this aspect hover below the level of conscious awareness in your psyche. As you become more aware of these patterns, you will less and less need to act them out with either suppressed passivity, or with outward bluster. Paradoxically, another manifestation of this aspect, is the ability to lead and be willful, to not take “no for an answer,” and to be ruthless in accomplishing one’s aims. A better level of integration produces a newly self-assured personality whereby you do not depend on others to either fully express your own desires, or be swayed by theirs. When you have integrated the walled-off places in your psyche, you will become more available to yourself in situations of leadership, as well as in truly helping other people.
