The following pages contain a brief evaluation of key elements of your birth chart, although it is by no means complete. Astrology can reveal many things about a person's life and personality, and you could study your chart for a lifetime without knowing the answers to all of your questions. The descriptions that follow will give you a "thumbnail" introduction to yourself through astrology.

In interpreting your chart, this report considers the sign of the planets and the north node in your chart, as well as their house placements. It also describes the sign of the Ascendant and the strongest aspects between the planets.

You may note that some of the following descriptions appear to contradict each other--and indeed we are all walking bundles of contradiction. If you examine yourself carefully, you will probably realize that you do in fact possess the qualities of both conflicting descriptions. Even though some parts of the reading may seem to clash, you will see that certain themes are repeated throughout the following pages. These are the ones that will become major issues in your life.

The readings stress that you are the ultimate decider of your fate. The stars may indicate the hand you were dealt at birth, but it is up to you to play that hand well enough to achieve your goals. Also, bear in mind that every "bad" aspect of a chart also has a "good" side. How it is expressed is really up to you. We tend to work at expressing ourselves more positively most of the time and only lapse into the negative behavior described when depressed, angry or scared. Or it is possible that some aspects may better describe your personality or behavior earlier in life. They may seem alien now because you have already worked through them.

A "Strength" number precedes each aspect description; this number takes into account how exact the aspect is, whether the aspect is a major or minor one, and whether an aspecting planet is close to one of the four chart angles. The higher the Strength, the more you are likely to feel the aspect and to act it out in your life.

You have more than your share of self-determination and self-reliance and therefore are not easily swayed by the arguments of others but prefer to choose your own path in life. Of course, this can manifest in several ways. Either you can live a practical and spiritual life, rising above petty power games, or you can resort to manipulation of others with the goal of total self-satisfaction without regard for the needs of others.

Since you want to be your own boss, you do not appreciate others meddling in your affairs. You do not like to have your motives questioned and can become quite forceful in making this known to others. You enjoy helping others and teaching them to help themselves, but once you are crossed you can become vengeful and antagonistic. At times like this you develop a biting sarcasm and can even be provoked to physical violence.

Your strong sense of self-respect causes others to admire you, and they often come to you for advice. You are an intensely loyal friend or lover, and you expect the same from those around you. Others know you will keep their secrets and feel they can trust your good counsel.

You exercise such strong self-control that at times it may seem that nothing bothers you. The worst of insults seem to roll off you leaving no mark, and the sweetest of compliments will not influence your decision at all. You are a master of the "poker face," and it is truly difficult if not impossible to tell what is going on with you under the surface. People generally fall into one of two categories with you: close friends or bitter enemies. You never forget a kindness or a slight, and you will not rest until you have repaid either in kind.

Physically, your weak areas are the reproductive organs, nose and throat. Varicose veins and nosebleeds are also common problems with this Ascendant. In order to preserve your health, be sure not to work too hard or to adopt a negative attitude toward life. This will certainly manifest as a physical ailment. You can be prone to obesity if you use food as a source of security. Your eyes have a piercing look that seems to penetrate into the very souls of others. It is possible that your eyebrows meet above the bridge of your nose and have an upward point. Your body tends to be more hairy than usual, and your mouth is full and sensual.

This little rhyme demonstrates the most common characteristic of Virgo: orderliness. There is some explanation for those who do not fit the bill; either other aspects in their chart outweigh this Virgo energy or they are so overloaded with it that they short circuit, rejecting it all. Often those who are incredible neat-niks will deny it, protesting that "My house is always so dirty." They are their own worst critic.

As a Virgo you are a great organizer and are particularly good at paying attention to details. You are very methodical and fastidious in every project you undertake. The only danger here is that you can overdo it by becoming too critical. It is also possible for you to get so caught up in unnecessary details that you fail to see the larger picture. You tend to be shy and modest, and you age very gracefully; you often appear to be younger than you are.

Virgos are socially gracious and are repulsed by vulgar behavior. Their eyes reflect their intelligence and clarity of thought. They usually dress very meticulously and often conservatively. Virgos have a healthy respect for personal hygiene and good health practices. They reap a great deal of personal satisfaction from serving others, and many born under this sign become nurses.

While you are quick to point out the flaws in others, it is not so easy to admit those in yourself. You are sincere and dependable in your relationships with others, and you appreciate practicality, punctuality, prudence and discrimination in others. Pressure from hard work can affect your health, and you have a tendency to worry.

In relationships you go to great lengths to please your lover and value a mate who knows what pleases you. You prefer a lover who is physically loyal to you and would be more comfortable in a stable, long-term relationship. Be careful not to be too sensitive, though; what you perceive to be neglect may only be an oversight on your partner's part. Also be careful not to smother your mate with love; be sure to allow them the space they need apart from you.

This house placement brings an infusion of Capricorn energy to your sun (since Capricorn rules the tenth house). It is important for your self-image that you have a good reputation with others. You value material success and respect those who have achieved it. In your journey to the top, others will look to you for leadership. People with the sun in this position can be paternal toward loved ones (regardless of their sex).

You work hard at your chosen occupation and probably feel exhausted at day's end. Be sure to reserve some quiet time for yourself (such as weekday evenings) apart from the time you reserve for entertaining friends and lovers (such as weekends and holidays). You need a chance to recharge your batteries.

It is possible you will find lovers on the job rather than at social events. You have a natural ability to influence people and make a good impression. Others look up to you, and you probably have a reputation as a desirable lover (whether you deserve it or not). You seek a partner who has the same ambition and drive that you have, and preferably one who has realized some measure of success.

You are highly imaginative and can channel this talent into creative work. It is necessary that you maintain a steady rate of mental activity in order to avoid intellectual boredom. This Moon placement favors education, and you would be both a good teacher and a sharp student. It is difficult for you to limit yourself to one activity at a time, and you are constantly looking for new stimulating experiences.

In business you would do well with a strong, practical partner who could keep you grounded. If you can find a partner that you can respect, you will not mind entrusting them with most of the decision-making in your business. It is easier for you to adjust to adulthood if you were allowed plenty of freedom during childhood. If this is denied you, you will probably respond with a classical temper tantrum. But you bounce back quickly and are quick to respond to any emergency. You may seem fearless to others because you take chances that would be too frightening to them.

In your love life you have the ability to handle several relationships simultaneously without anyone getting hurt. You require good communication with your lovers, and they must have a keen sense of humor. A possessive partner would be a source of frustration for you, for you must be allowed to express yourself freely. Be sure your partner is aware of your needs and respects them.

You are not known for your stability, and you need a partner who can understand your dual nature. If you have such a mate, you may not feel the need to lie in order to avoid confrontations. This can be a bad habit of yours. As you age you will retain a youthful look and behavior about you. People with this Moon placement can succeed at "staying young forever."

With this Moon placement you acquire Libra-like qualities in your emotional life, and you constantly seek balance and harmony in that area. The friends you choose to have around you will be those to whom you offer emotional support and security, and they will be extremely close to you. You may also choose a marriage partner who offers the same qualities.

Although you are not overly emotional yourself (unless you have an emphasis in water in other areas of your chart), you attract others who are in order to teach you about your own emotions. You understand yourself best through your interactions with others. For this and other reasons, persons with this Moon placement often marry (or form other permanent love commitments) early in life. It is important for you to have someone to share in your life.

You are always willing to help a friend in need. In your domestic life, you often guide your partner through the intricacies of a marriage relationship. You require a sensitive partner who is willing to listen to your advice and trust you enough to follow your suggestions. It's not that you will necessarily rule your partner; on the contrary, you truly seek a totally equal relationship. Be sure your partner considers it as equal as you do. Learn when to let your advice go untaken.

With your logical and practical mind, you have the ability to pay close attention to detail and to develop systems and methods which are very organized and efficient. You like to keep your environment neat, tidy and well-organized. You learn quickly, and with your excellent memory for details you can maintain a great deal of what you take in.

You have a quick analytical mind and can use it to perform tasks requiring great precision and skill. With your natural talent for critical evaluation, you must avoid the temptation to criticize others. Be patient with others who are not as organized or "together" as you are. Remember that all humans, including yourself, have faults, and therefore you should allow others their imperfections just as you would want others to understand yours.

Since you are rather shy, you avoid idle conversation and usually only speak when you have something important to say. You are work-oriented and are most satisfied with jobs in which you provide a service to others. Mercury in Virgo also gives you a natural aptitude for science (especially the use of computers). With your great speaking and writing abilities, you could be a great teacher.

With your need to categorize and organize everything, you can become detached from the natural flow of life. The more you dissect something, the less you can experience it for itself. Thus, by over-intellectualizing your life, you lose spontaneity and enthusiasm. It is good for you to remember that "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

You began planning for your career early in life, and you understand the role of education in achieving professional goals. With your strong organizational and managerial skills, you could easily pursue more than one career at a time. You would do well in careers involving communication, travel, or public speaking. Your father was a major influence in forming your ideas and beliefs.

Since the sign Libra rules marriage, you are highly romantic and value marriage. As a matter of fact, you probably feel that marriage is necessary for your personal fulfillment. You have a deep need to be loved, and you are easily hurt by harsh words or treatment.

You are a social butterfly whom others see as being refined and gracious. Many people with Venus in Libra also have a strong musical or artistic talent. It is important to you that your surroundings be harmonious. Trying to survive in a discordant atmosphere could result in health problems.

With Venus in Libra, you can fall in love with the idea of being in love. Having a partner on the social scene is very important to you, especially if he or she is one of the beautiful people. You admire physical grace and beauty in a lover and feel that your value is enhanced by having an attractive partner.

You would become quickly bored with a stick-in-the-mud partner. You need someone who is able to constantly change and adapt to life rather than someone who likes to settle down in a rut and get comfortable. Although you are attracted to a partner who is stable and reliable, they also need to be flexible and fun to be with.

You get along well with others and are at your best when you are a member of a group. Your friends and lovers will be unique and different from the norm, and you will benefit greatly from the loyalty and devotion of those close to you. Since you have friends of many races and cultural backgrounds, you can help promote understanding among diverse cultures. You may meet lovers through political activities.

With Mars in Leo, you are highly creative and artistically talented. You also have the enthusiasm, dedication and ambition required to put these gifts to good use. And, unlike some other Mars placements, you will not be modest or shy about it.

You are impulsive and passionate about most everything in life, no matter what age you may be. The only danger of this Mars placement is that pride may make you stubborn and quarrelsome. Don't let your pride get you into difficult situations. Know when to say you're not physically up to an impossible challenge. Otherwise, you could strain your body, and specifically your heart.

You are a warm, loyal and open lover and are extremely generous with your partner. You don't have much patience for elaborate courting rituals, but you are a very attentive lover once the ice has been broken. You will go to extreme lengths to make your lovemaking sessions perfect and to be creative in the bedroom. Be sure not to steal the show, though; let your partner come up with his or her own ideas.

Mars in Leo gives you the gift of being able to make any love affair or romantic situation a magical one. You treat your lover like royalty, and you are very pleased if they return the favor. Most of all, your partner must respect you and allow you to maintain your dignity (the famous Leo pride). You would not be happy, for instance, with someone who was obnoxious or otherwise embarrassed you in public.

You have very strong opinions and will fight to defend your belief system if challenged. You take action based on the principles at stake in a situation, and you may work with groups to overthrow abuses of justice in society. Travel is very exciting for you and will expand your consciousness. Avoid a tendency to become self-righteous and to disregard the opinions of others.

You have a flair for finance and the management of the resources of others, as well as natural healing abilities. People are attracted to you by your magnetic personality and deep inner strength. Avoid using your power over others to manipulate and control them. With Jupiter in Scorpio, you may benefit from inheritances. You are hard-working, efficient and resourceful, and therefore you often attain your goals. Sex is very important to you, and if Jupiter is afflicted you may become obsessed with sexual fantasies.

You are highly idealistic, and your expectations can sometimes be unrealistic. For this reason, it is important to think things through before acting. With your deep love for humanity, you have a strong desire to help others who are less fortunate than you. You do not seek glory for your compassionate acts, but rather are content to work behind the scenes. You will receive much help from your guides.

Your caution, patience, concentration and willingness to work long and hard to achieve your goals have the potential to bring you great success. You are careful with your money and may over-emphasize material possessions if you're not careful. Those close to you may find you are sometimes hard to reach, since your feelings are usually controlled and your mood serious. Although you believe your career is the highest priority in your life, a stable home life will bring you the greatest peace of mind.

You find it difficult to express your feelings, even to your most intimate loved ones, although you have a strong need to relate to others. You are extremely cautious about marriage because you are looking for that perfect mate. You may gain status and security through marriage. Usually indicates at least one difficult break-up of a relationship or marriage. You may marry late in life or choose a partner much older.

You are charming and cooperative; you seek peace and harmony in your life. Freedom is important to you, and is one of the few things you consider worth fighting for. Unexpected changes in your relationships will present you with challenges designed to make you more accepting of others' differences. Your challenge is to become more flexible.

You have many acquaintances, but few close friends, and they are all unique in some way. You are drawn to unconventional groups with humanitarian goals which are considered to be rebellious and radical. During your life you will have many friends who are involved in occult or metaphysical sciences, including astrology. You will insist that your friends respect your beliefs, even if they don't agree.

You are driven to uncover the deepest secrets within society, and you have a keen interest in metaphysical sciences. With your strong desire for physical pleasures, you must avoid overindulging in food, drink, sex or drugs in an attempt to escape the tension of daily life.

You are hypersensitive, visionary and artistically creative. With your active imagination and strong desire to escape from the harshness of life, you must avoid getting lost in a world of fantasy. You have strong psychic abilities, which you will learn to trust with time. Because you absorb feelings from those around you, you tend to wear different personas depending on whom you are with, like a chameleon.

Your generation saw the birth of social reforms, such as free medical clinics and food banks. Chemicals also became popular, and many miracle drugs were discovered. There was also renewed interest in organic health foods, vitamins and herbal remedies. You have a strong desire to achieve perfection. Avoid being too critical of yourself or others.

You are highly ambitious in your career and may rise to a position of leadership and power. The challenge for you is to use any power you acquire over others for the benefit of all rather than for your personal gain. You have a very strong will and must learn to be more patient and diplomatic. Rules were intended to apply to you too, not just to others.

You are willing to put energy, dedication, high ideals, and sustained effort into a career. The causes that you adopt will benefit from your understanding of promotion and publicity. Often found in positions of authority, you like to deal with big causes and big people. The image that you present in your career must be an image of which you are proud, which can make you either a charismatic leader to be admired or an authoritative tyrant to be resented.

Develop the confidence to allow your creative energies to flow. You can be the leader with the exciting ideas on which others depend. You are rarely found in a career situation in which someone else is dictating the hours. You can bring much joy to others by giving generously of yourself. But this will not be in an unassuming way, for you do like to stand out from the crowd. If you have a weakness, it is to cling to your beliefs or an inflated self-image even in the face of obvious failure. A wise gambler knows when to hold his hand of cards and when to fold them.

Occupations consistent with your dramatic style of work include actor, producer, executive, sports personality, politician, entertainer, fiction writer, leader, entrepreneur, minister, promoter, artist, or diplomat. For the most personal career guide, also consider the nature of any planets which fall in the 10th house or conjoin the Midheaven, the sign and house placements of the sun, ruler of the Midheaven, and any aspects which other planets make to the Midheaven.

You are highly organized and structured, with a keen eye for detail. During past lifetimes you have formed rigid beliefs about what constituted "fact" and harshly criticized others who made claims they could not prove. During this lifetime you will learn to understand forces beyond those which you can see, hear or measure. Through your experiences in this life, you will learn to follow your intuition and to act on faith. You will develop greater compassion for others and learn to "go with the flow."

In past lives you had much power and prestige; in this lifetime your challenge is to become more domestic and nurturing; you may be forced to choose between your career and your family. You may have had one domineering parent who convinced you that you were destined for greatness. Unfortunately, this leaves you feeling disappointed when reality falls short of your expectations.

You are very courageous, and you enjoy venturing "where no one has gone before." In order to develop your strengths to their fullest, you tend to push yourself to go beyond what you know you can handle. You love being physically active, and will become very restless if required to stand still for very long.

Chiron represents the deep wounds we've all suffered in life which seem nearly impossible to heal. In the sign Aries, it indicates that for you this wound was connected to your early upbringing, which was probably filled with conflict. This may have stifled your sense of self-confidence and spontaneity, so that you had to rebuild it as you matured.

You are very charismatic, and people tend to follow your lead when decisions need to be made. Because you pursue your career with devotion and enthusiasm, you can usually stay ahead of any competitors. You're highly creative, and your work is unique and freestyle. You don't follow fads, you set them.

As a child, you probably felt that your creations were not appreciated, and perhaps they were even ridiculed. As a result, you may have been afraid to share your inventions with others. As you learn to create for yourself, rather than for the approval of others, you'll heal these childhood wounds and develop greater self-confidence and spontaneity.

It may seem to you that you are required to make great concessions in order to achieve your goals in life. This can lead to bitterness and resentment on your part if you are not careful to keep a positive attitude. This can manifest itself not only in your career but also in your personal and social relationships. You may be continually forced to prove your worth to employers and other people in positions of authority.

You seem to constantly miss opportunities because you do not have the proper skills. The truth of the matter is that you must make more than a halfway effort at achieving your goals and must be willing to exercise the self-discipline required to do this.

You must be willing to work hard for what you receive in life. You must also be able to handle your ego and not let it interfere with your ambitions. You still do have many things to learn in this life. It is hard to obtain the required recognition and support from people of influence with a huge chip on your shoulder.

You may also have problems in relationships with the opposite sex. You like to argue and can be quite defensive, making it impossible to reason with you. This stems from your own emotional insecurity and can only be remedied by your willingness to compromise. As in all other areas of your life, you must be willing to invest just as much as you hope to gain.

In sex you may have doubts about your ability to be a good lover. But in reality you are probably one of the most experienced of lovers because of your desire to prove your competence. Relax and enjoy the good things in your life. You can be much too hard on yourself.

You are highly ambitious, both professionally and socially. It is important to you that your peers respect and admire you and look to you for leadership. Indeed, you insist on maintaining control of your own life, and this has probably brought about power struggles with your elders since your childhood days. Your father (or the person who played that role in your life) was a major influence in your life.

With your strong need for autonomy and independence, you would probably be happiest working for yourself. If you are forced to work under someone else, you have a tendency to rebel against their authority over you. Just remember that no person is an island, and eventually you will need the assistance and companionship of others. Curb your ego's strong drive to be in control and learn to cooperate with others as equals.

Developing patience and respect for others will help make you the valued leader you aspire to be. Learn to share the spotlight with others, and they will be touched by your generosity. It's much better that others are inspired to sing your praises rather than continually having to do it yourself.

Often this aspect indicates an inferiority complex which is probably traceable to your early parental conditioning. Your parents may have misunderstood your need to assert your own individuality and tried to curb your self-expression. In self-defense you may have built emotional walls around yourself to shield you against others who would hurt you. Although you are highly creative and eager to do something with your many talents, you fear failure to such an extent that you often may not even try.

You shy away from intense competition because you underestimate your ability to emerge as the victor. Also, you don't like the idea of beating anyone in competition because you don't want to hurt their feelings. You run away from your responsibilities and then feel guilty about it. You need to learn to love yourself and put yourself first when dealing with others.

In your career it would be best to start out with a job that requires a minimum of responsibility on your part. As you gain experience and realize that you can indeed succeed, you can set higher goals for yourself. You are very sensitive and emotionally vulnerable, and you must be careful not to let others use you.

In matters of love, be realistic about your expectations of your partner; don't ask the impossible and therefore set yourself up for disappointment. If you are unsure about how to assert yourself in your relationships, let your partner take the lead and then react accordingly. Building a successful relationship will be a gradual process for you; don't rush in without looking at least twice.

You are very creative and full of new ideas. For this reason you would be your own best boss. Regular jobs may restrict your inventiveness and become boring. You especially resist strict schedules. You insist that you be allowed the time you need to create.

You have a very curious mind and are somewhat philosophical. You are sympathetic but not sacrificial. You are enthusiastic and outgoing and have a wide variety of friends who appreciate your sunny nature and good sense of humor. Because of your wide information base, you are fun in intellectual discussions and debate.

Good careers for you include: law, philosophy, journalism, education, public relations, or acting. In whatever you do, communication will play a big role. And, of course, you must be allowed to be creative.

Don't forget to relax and unwind after a hard day. Give some time to yourself and indulge in your favorite treat. Just be sure you can afford it.

In love relationships you exercise good judgment and do not rush into love commitments without careful consideration. You avoid making radical changes too quickly; this leads to stable, long-lasting relationships.

Your emotions are very intense, and at times it may seem that you are ruled by your moods and feelings. You do not hide your emotions very well, and those closest to you have probably learned to give you lots of space when you become temperamental.

In both your personal and professional lives, your emotions often are in conflict with what others need or expect from you. Before you react defensively, closely examine your motivations. Are the demands from others really so unreasonable, or do you just want everything your way? Would you still consider it unreasonable if the situation were reversed?

In time, you will learn to maintain your individuality while living in cooperation with others. When your mind and heart are working together harmoniously, you're much happier and successful in all your relationships.

Your mind is very intense, and you are constantly researching everything (and everyone) in life. You seek a deeper meaning behind everything and have a keen eye for details. Your intense curiosity can lead you to go to extremes in gathering data in order to solve your problems.

Mysterious and occult matters have a special fascination for you. You love a good intellectual challenge and would therefore do well in such positions as: detective, analyst, chemist, researcher, surgeon or pathologist. Other possible areas of satisfaction for you would be exploration and financial advising.

It is not difficult for you to win people over to your position by gentle but firm persuasion. Once you set a goal for yourself, nothing or no one should try to stand in your way. It is hard for you to take advice at times like this, although it would be advisable for you to develop such listening skills.

In your dealings with others you can be quite vindictive and vengeful. One of your pet peeves is social injustice, and you have no patience for public officials who allow unjust social conditions to prevail. You may be tempted to work for the underdog yourself as lobbyist or spokesman. This would be a positive channel for your pent-up anger over social inequities.

You are a demanding lover and can sometimes be lacking in compassion when asked to accept your lover's faults. You try to dominate your partner and then lose respect for him or her when they allow you to do so. You require a strong mate who can hold firmly to his or her own position and work with you so that you both can grow from the association. A common goal or ideal will form a strong bond between you.

This aspect indicates that you are frustrated in your attempts at success by your own lack of confidence in yourself. Since you doubt your own judgment as to when and how to assert yourself, you often delay acting until it is too late to take advantage of opportunities, or else rush the project before it is quite ready. Both of these reactions to the demands you place on yourself result in setbacks and increased self-criticism on your part.

You often feel threatened by the skill and expertise of others because you lack respect for your own abilities. You can correct this situation by finding your own area of specialization and becoming an authority in that area. If you can stay focused on any assignment, you definitely have the ability to excel. Just remember that you are your own worst critic. You must also learn to take a position firmly. Others will see your vacillation and inability to decide as weakness and/or lack of knowledge. Learn to say what you mean firmly and without room for question, especially when it comes to such words as "No!" or "Yes!"

In your career you could excel in any occupation requiring endurability and follow-through. These could include: land development, physical therapy, sports or government service. As long as you learn to stand up to your competitors and be firm, you will develop self-confidence and gain experience.

Romantically, you suffer greatly if you feel you have been rejected by a loved one. This can result in your becoming vindictive or even violent toward them. If you are not careful, you can hurt the very people you love the most.

You are very talented and creative. You sometimes so immerse yourself in the world of illusions that you may find it difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. You can become so engrossed in your surroundings that you lose yourself to it, escaping to your own illusion of reality. You are very psychic and can often have flashes of enlightenment that turn out to be quite accurate.

You are lacking in self-confidence and must not allow others to climb over you on their way to the top. You tend to underestimate your value and abilities and assume that everyone else is more skilled than you are. You could be a good: doctor, analyst, researcher or counselor.

Personal relationships cannot be founded on illusion, however, and a successful relationship will require your undivided attention to the real situation. You must be able to compromise when necessary and to make adjustments to your partner.

The ideal partner for you would help you tell the difference between fact and fiction. You have a very active imagination and can use it to weave intricate sexual fantasies for you and your partner to satisfy.

You are a highly sensitive person, and you tend to take on the feelings of those around you as though they were your own. For this reason, it is important that you surround yourself with positive, up-beat people. Otherwise, you could suffer feelings of anger, despair or depression, although you don't understand why.

Because you lack self-confidence, you tend to shy away from projects that seem too difficult. It's easier for you to avoid challenging situations altogether rather than to risk failure. The more skills you master, the more willing you will be to try new things. No one is born knowing everything, and we all make mistakes. Instead of seeing this as a failure, consider it a lesson and try to learn something from it.

In your profession, you admire others who seem to be more capable or accomplished than you. Instead of over-idealizing these people, use their example to inspire you to improve your own skills. If you ask them, they'll surely tell you that they stumbled and fell many times on their way to the top. Like them, you must learn to get up, dust yourself off, and keep going.

You are very optimistic in your approach to life and truly enjoy living. Your feelings are quite intense, but you keep them under tight control. You love with your whole heart and soul, and your friends know that they can depend on you. You love friends for themselves, not for what you expect them to be or for their outside appearances. Your psychic abilities are well developed, and you may be able to prophesy the future at times.

You will be a Rock of Gibraltar for your mate, and you will be the one who most often is the shoulder to cry on. You will probably be stronger emotionally than your loved one. Your mate may need your love in this respect.

You love children and can derive much joy from them. They feel comfortable in your presence, and you can be quite protective of those in your charge. You have an ability to deal with emergency situations and maintain your cool, which is very reassuring to children.

You feel obliged to serve others and could do well in fields such as: public relations, financial consulting, vocational advising, physical therapy and social welfare. You understand how to handle money and could be a good manager. You understand what motivates people and could do well in any occupation that requires public contact.

Your emotions are well integrated with your intellect, and you are able to evaluate your reactions to people and situations quickly. You learn easily from your day-to-day experiences, and you use them to enrich your consciousness. You are warm and sympathetic, and others appreciate your good nature and eagerness to help. You also have an amazing memory which allows you to recall past events in detail.

You know what your talents are and how to make use of them through creative expression. You also know how to apply yourself and get the best results on the job, and you are able to see problems objectively. If you know you don't have the answer, you are not afraid to ask for help. It is not in your nature to dwell on negative thoughts, and you could even be of help to others who have this tendency. Yet you will not easily reveal your own personal problems to anyone other than your most trusted friends and relatives.

It is most likely that your home life will be happy, your friendships close, and your social life pleasant. You have the ability to cope with the obstacles life presents to you. And you are compassionate enough to understand and forgive the shortcomings in others.

In your love life you can express your feelings quite clearly and can help your partner do so as well. This will prevent resentments from building over misunderstandings between you. You will probably be more aware of your partner's problems than he or she is. Be patient with them and remember that they may not be so comfortable expressing their emotions as you are.

You are mentally alert and organized and are not shy about voicing your opinion. With your abundant creative talents, you can express yourself in a wide variety of ways. You have a natural talent for "turning lemons into lemonade" and can create opportunities for yourself if none present themselves. This creativity allows you to solve problems rather easily which would stump others.

You are very efficient in expending your energy and resources to the fullest advantage. You are self-confident and are often willing to take on tasks which others feel unable to perform. In times of pressure you are able to maintain a patient and calm attitude. You learn well from your life experiences and have a wonderful memory.

In a career you would do well in education, politics, architecture, management, science and research, archeology or writing. You have the enthusiasm and the intellectual power to handle the demands of these professions and will enjoy the creative opportunities they provide. You would also do well working with languages or in deciphering symbols and codes. Whatever work you undertake, you will certainly find fulfillment and deep meaning in your experiences.

You know your abilities and your limitations and are able to work within them. You pride yourself on your integrity and honesty and will go to great lengths to defend yourself if accused of indiscretion. Although you can tolerate a great deal in your friends, deceit is one thing which is not acceptable to you. You must be able to trust your friends and loved ones in order to have happy relationships.

Others will often come to you with their problems and will benefit from your good judgment and wisdom. Your later years will be very rewarding and you may find that you are drawn to writing at that time.

You have the ability to succeed in whatever you undertake because of your persistence, determination and talent for self-discipline. At the very least you will give it your best shot, and you are very thorough in your work. You would be a very good supervisor; you take everyone's feelings and needs into consideration when making important decisions. You would be especially adept at handling the resources of a large organization.

Your powers of concentration enable you to manage your affairs quite well. Your thinking is very organized and practical, and you have a strong sense of duty. You accept responsibilities well, knowing that what you do contributes to the good (or bad) of all of society. In order to be in a position to bring about positive change, you may seek employment in government. In such a job you could help to reduce waste and improve efficiency, and somehow still manage to work within the rigid governmental structure to bring about positive changes for the benefit of the less fortunate among us.

Your determination and self-confidence can be contagious; children especially benefit from your influence. You have no patience for anyone (at any age) who will give up, saying "I can't do it" without really trying, and you will not accept such an attitude from your children. Young people are inspired by your social consciousness and may even be encouraged to get more involved in what's going on in the world around them.

This aspect gives you a talent for getting to the bottom of problems; you would be especially good at projects involving extensive research. You have much to offer to humankind -- you can see what's right and what's wrong with society without being overly critical and can work toward constructive change.

This is the only aspect Neptune has made to Pluto during this century, and the planets will remain in sextile to each other for another hundred years, although the signs the planets occupy will continue to change as time passes.

For those born between 1942 and 1956, Neptune was in Libra and Pluto in Leo. These people were born at a time of global war. Governments rose and fell; kings were ousted from their castles. There were breakthroughs in air power (Neptune in Libra) which helped establish the balance of power between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. This time was filled with meetings and peace conferences between global leaders. Those born during this time know that compromise is not enough to achieve peace; you are naturally suspicious of your leaders, and this will help to promote greater honesty and accountability on the part of political figures.

If you were born between 1957 and 1970, Neptune was in Scorpio and Pluto in Virgo. There were new advances in health and medicine, as well as rapid spread of illegal drugs. Our long- held conservative attitude about sex began to dissolve, and we began to realize that marriage was not essential to maintain a committed relationship. Those born during this time seek to serve and improve society. You are also angry about the current state of our environment and natural resources.

If you were born between 1971 and 1983, Neptune was in Sagittarius and Pluto in Libra. Your attitudes about religion, education and human interactions are most likely different from those of your parents. Your religious beliefs, or spiritual practices, are important to you, and you are deeply concerned for the fate of your planet and the race of man. You will insist that your leaders be straight with you and will not accept excuses or manipulation. You are also interested in occult sciences, and many advances in this area will be made by members of your generation.

If you were born between 1984 and 1998, Neptune was in Capricorn and Pluto in Scorpio. You are part of a generation which will make great progress in dealing with power responsibly, both in terms of interpersonal relationships and as protectors of our Mother Earth. You will seek to transform society and replace rampant injustice with compassionate guidance.

You have a highly active imagination, which comes in handy solving the daily problems of life. Your intuition allows you to see difficulties in a larger perspective, which enhances ease of solution. You have a strong respect for knowledge and an insatiable curiosity. In addition, you have a natural ability to learn from your experiences and to see the hidden truth in all situations.

In a career you would do well as a writer, journalist, teacher, healer, artist or social worker. You are naturally artistic and sensitive to the needs of others. No matter what field you choose, you will do well in any job which requires good communication skills. You deal well with people on a day-to-day basis.

Getting an education is important in order for you to take full advantage of your many talents and creative abilities. If you are properly trained in the use of these natural skills, you will surely succeed. It will help if you set concrete goals early in life and work slowly toward them, avoiding distraction along the way.

In your personal life you are warm and loving and see your relations with others in a philosophical way. You are idealistic in that you want the world to be the best possible place, but you don't expect individuals in your life to live up to an unrealistic ideal. You highly respect those who are at least trying for self-betterment.

From a very early age, you've received a great deal of support from your family and friends. With their assistance, you've managed to be in the right places at the right times. Your eagerness to learn and your charming personality also contribute to your success in life.

Some people consider you "lucky," but in reality you have a talent for discovering opportunities that others overlook. Once you've made the connection, your self-confidence and optimism inspire others to put their trust in you. And you'll do everything in your power to see that they're not disappointed.

Your superiors are impressed by you, and your co-workers find you a pleasure to work with. You feel good about yourself and your abilities, and you don't have to make others look bad so that you can look better. For this reason, you would make a good manager or supervisor.

Your attempts to assert yourself often result in turmoil for you and/or for others. Therefore, you swing from one extreme to the other--asserting your needs powerfully at times and at others slipping into a state of total apathy.

It would be best if you could be self-employed or at least manage to work alone in your occupation. Because of your need to serve others, you would do well in the field of medicine and healing or social services. This way you can assert yourself and serve others at the same time. Also, if you work alone you will have no one but yourself to blame when things go wrong, which may be difficult for you since you tend to point fingers at others.

You lead a somewhat sexually repressed life although your sexual needs are significant. You suffer from anxieties regarding your sexuality (probably carried over from parental conditioning around sex) and therefore find it difficult to find satisfaction in this area.

Also, you may be attracted to persons who are unavailable, perhaps because they are already married. And then you languish in guilt over fulfilling your desires with someone who does not belong to you. Sometimes you find it more convenient to see your lover as you wish them to be rather than as they really are. You tend to lower your standards when choosing a lover and end up with someone who is interested in you primarily for sex. You may feel bitter when you are disappointed in love, but you really have only yourself to blame for setting it up that way.

You can be accident-prone at times, and you should avoid occupations which require the use of heavy machinery and other mechanical devices. You are also more subject than most to infections and disease, so you should be very careful with your health. Watch your diet and hygienic practices.

Because it is not easy for you to form close relationships with others, you may get a reputation for being a loner. With your reserved demeanor, others can sometimes get the impression that you're a snob. In fact, you have a shortage of self-esteem and are surprised when you do receive compliments. You fear rejection, and you've come to expect it from most everyone.

You are more capable than most people, yet you shy away from competition. Only by taking a chance and trying it will you find out how successful you can be. You need constant reassurance that you are competent and skilled because you tend to form the opinion that everyone around you is more competent than you are. Asking for a raise in pay, a minor thing to many people, is a major undertaking for you, requiring a great deal of courage and determination.

With Saturn opposing your Ascendant, you are likely to marry late in life or to be attracted to partners who are older than you. You are self-conscious and shy around others, and they may accuse you of being detached or indifferent. You are especially sensitive and defensive when relating to others, and it may sometimes seem more trouble than it's worth.

It is difficult for you to understand the meaning behind what happens in your life and for this reason you have trouble learning necessary lessons. Growth seems such a painful process to you and at times you may feel that the only meaning to life is emotional suffering.

You have a low opinion of your own worth and always feel that others are better at what they do than you are. Therefore you take on the role of second-class citizen, serving others without regard for your own needs. Others may take advantage of this element in your personality, especially since you have difficulty saying no to any request. Once you learn to establish priorities and to take care of your own needs, this will no longer be a problem.

Because of your low self-esteem, you constantly seek validation from others by gaining their approval. If someone comes to you with a plea for help and you turn them down, you torment yourself with feelings of guilt and feel even more unworthy. This is your own way of emotionally beating yourself and is not based on fact. Be kind to yourself before you consider giving to others.

You would do well in any occupation in which you can serve others as well as yourself. Such areas include physical therapy, public relations, and rehabilitation of the handicapped. You could also do well in the field of travel because of your great interest in foreign lands. You are willing to work harder than most and often may take on more than you can handle, again in an effort to please others. Don't allow others to pass their duties over to you; you have enough to handle on your own.

Developing a hobby is good therapy for you and will allow you to express your creativity in a positive way. This would also give you a chance to unwind and to disconnect yourself from the needs of others. Be sure that people prove their sincerity and reliability before you confide in them. Otherwise, you could set yourself up for hurt and disappointment.

Your greatest liability is your quick temper. Because of your difficulty in controlling your feelings and making adjustments to others, you encounter problems in your personal relationships. You are afraid of being too vulnerable and allowing others to take advantage of you. In truth, you are only trying to protect your very sensitive feelings; but be careful not to become paranoid and suspicious of everyone who tries to get close to you.

You become irritated when someone challenges your opinion and are a sore loser in competition. It is possible that you even throw temper tantrums or exhibit similar immature behavior when things don't go your way. Until you develop more self-discipline, you will alienate others with your outbursts.

Learn to compromise with others and to work cooperatively to achieve common goals. Your extreme defensiveness is really a side-effect of your own low self-esteem. Build up your image of yourself rather than living in fear of recrimination by others. This is especially true in your domestic and professional life. Be careful not to bring the frustrations of your job home with you. This can lead to problems in your domestic affairs.

As you mature you will learn to restrain your strong emotions. As a matter of fact, it is imperative for good health that you accept this challenge. Otherwise, you will find yourself suffering from stomach and intestinal disorders as well as very uptight nerves.

Become less demanding of others and more responsible about meeting the demands of your loved ones. This will help you achieve a healthy emotional balance between giving and receiving love.

Although you are quite ambitious, you are also extremely fearful of failure and therefore shy away from competition. If someone challenges you, you often become critical and distrustful of them. Others react to this by becoming suspicious and distrustful of you, and this leads to continued conflicts. It is difficult for you to understand the concept of friendly competition.

You seem to draw people to you who are deceitful and untrustworthy, and then you point them out as examples of how nobody can be trusted in an attempt to justify your own questionable motives. Although you want to be idealistic and give people the benefit of the doubt, you always seem to pick those who will rip you off. Then you complain about being victimized.

It is difficult for you to tell when someone is lying to you because you always want so badly to believe the best. This is like an engraved invitation to those who would take advantage of you. It is common for people with this aspect to be generous with a loved one and then later find that they've been taken, emotionally and financially. The lesson here is not that nobody can be trusted, but rather that you should be more careful about who you trust.

You will continue to suffer disappointments in life until you are able to see things more realistically. Some people with this aspect retreat into themselves and become loners in self-defense. You should be careful not to get caught up in a depressed mood; you could develop psychosomatic illnesses as a result.

You are very strong-willed and insist on doing things your way. Once you choose a path to follow, you will not tolerate any interference. Anyone who gets in your way or tries to tell you what you should do will incur your wrath. Although you are not good at following the advice of others, you should at least listen to what others have to say. Remaining open to advice can allow you to learn from the mistakes of others.

In your career you prefer to be in charge and therefore would be happiest as your own boss, or at least in a position which allows you to call the shots without first seeking the approval of others. You take it personally when people question your motives, and you will vigorously defend your right to control your own actions. It is difficult for you to work harmoniously as a member of a team, although this placement of Mars is quite common among athletes.

You are highly ambitious and willing to work hard to achieve your goals in life. Because you do not respect authority figures merely because they are in a position of power, you may have repeated conflicts with supervisors. Be careful not to alienate others who could otherwise be of assistance to you.

You have an insatiable curiosity and are constantly seeking new ways to broaden your knowledge. Mentally, you are very sharp and absorb information like a sponge. You seek a deeper meaning behind all things in life and are not happy with a superficial explanation.

You have a vivacious personality and therefore attract many friends. While you enjoy sharing your opinions with others, you are also a very good listener and therefore do not alienate others. Because you are so well-informed, you make an excellent conversationalist and are at your best in a debate.

Early in life you learned that you can cope with any situation that confronts you. This allows you to accept changes in your life that would be very threatening to others. You have a deep respect for authority but will seek to expose any who abuse their position of authority over others.

In a career you will find great satisfaction working with groups. You would do well as a teacher, politician or social worker. You are a competent and effective public speaker and can stimulate the desired positive responses in your audience.

You live your life with an eye toward the future and want to do your part to make life a little better for everyone, not just the chosen few. Others will seek you out and will admire the example you set in your own life. You have a deep spiritual wisdom that you may not even be aware of, but others are able to sense it and come to you for advice.

Metaphysical or occult studies would be a good area for study. You do not shy away from unpleasant truths that you may encounter in such fields and could even enter into the practice of metaphysical sciences as a profession.

In your love life, you need a mate who can function at your spiritual level. The worst possible mate for you would be one who bores you. This will most certainly lead to a dissolution of the relationship.

You are very strong-willed and are not likely to compromise in your relationships with others. You simply must express yourself and are not willing to "hide your light under a bushel" for anyone or anything. Others may see you as arrogant or egocentric, and indeed this aspect can indicate such a tendency. Certainly you are self-confident and could use this drive and ambition to get where you want to go.

This aspect indicates that you have great inner strength, and usually great physical strength as well. You enjoy competition and are a formidable opponent. With your enthusiasm for your goal, you can be an effective leader. Just be sure to remain flexible enough to accept advice. With this aspect, you don't take criticism very well. Don't see it as a personal attack if someone suggests a better way of doing things. Remain open and you will have less resistance on your climb to the top.

With these qualities, you would do well in competitive sports, exploration, military or police work, or other "dangerous" careers. You would also do well in intellectual areas, such as medicine or law. In order to succeed in the professional world, you must learn to pay attention to details in order to avoid having to do things over to correct errors. Control your impulse to rush through projects; cover all your bases.

You have a strong sex drive and can become irritable or even violent when you have no outlet for it. If a lover does not live up to your sexual expectations, you will grow to resent them and become insensitive to their feelings. Compromise is not your strong suit anyway, and you must be especially careful about conflict situations in your personal relationships.

This aspect can be troublesome due to a belief on your part (perhaps unconsciously) that in order for your needs to be met, you must forfeit good relations with others. You carry a large chip on your shoulder and constantly challenge others to a contest of strength (of one sort or another). Once you have decided to speak your mind, there is no stopping you, and you won't care who hears you or what are the consequences. This was probably especially true when you were young, and you probably lost your temper with others frequently.

Your parents probably encouraged you to do all the things they were unable to accomplish, and you may be annoyed and resentful of these expectations. This aspect usually indicates that there was a good deal of bickering and fighting in your home as a child. Quite often, it indicates that your parents were unable to provide an education for you and that if you obtained one, it was done under your own power.

One source of the trouble with this aspect is your tendency to act impulsively and aggressively. This offends others and puts them on the offensive. In truth, you have a great deal of energy which, if channeled positively, can help you achieve your highest goals in life. You also have to resist the temptation to give up when your efforts seem fruitless. Cultivate a little patience and hang in there.

You have difficulty respecting authority figures and for this reason may encounter problems with the law or others in positions of power. This could also prevent you from advancing in your career if you are unwilling to submit to the authority of your superiors.

You are in touch with the real world. More than others, you know where the rubber meets the road; persistent study has shown you how to make things happen in a practical sort of way. Your nature is well-suited to the adult world of responsibilities, which you master at a young age. Not impulsive with your resources, you would only start a business after careful study, but you would manage it well. You enjoy the satisfaction that comes not just from starting projects, but from finishing them. Your steady, organized approach is actually more productive in the long-run than is that of the quick, flashy types. You know how to establish a pace and keep it.

Do not let your awareness of the material world make you unappreciative of the spiritual plane that underpins our life here -- to which others may be more sensitive than you. Practicality is fine, but try to understand that dreams, feelings, and enthusiasms are also important and should not be squelched. Others might surprise you with what their optimistic risk-taking is able to achieve. You can be so cautious and reserved that some people find you conservative and dull. If you yourself become bored or depressed, admit that security isn't everything and try to be more spontaneous. Open up to the new and follow your bliss (in a careful sort of way).

You are willing to let flashier individuals take center-stage and lead the way. You are probably unenthusiastic about change and are passive when it comes to creating change through leadership. You may be aggressive in a defensive way, but lack the self-confidence to take the offensive. Lacking the impulsiveness of Fire, you are more likely to be a careful worker and a reliable mate, though you could stand to be less detached and more personally involved with your spouse and family.

A lack of planets in Fire signs can be offset by a Fire sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the houses of Life.

With abundant planets in these houses, relationships and communications with others are likely to be central to your life. You can help others by exchanging ideas and making connections between people. You will probably maintain active contact with a wide circle of relatives, friends and acquaintances. You keep abreast of new information via various media and your friends.

With abundant planets in the houses of substance, you know your place in the material world. You know how to extract value and give value via your business, work, and career activities. The rules of the world come easily to you. Others admire and depend on your hard work and practical nature. If you get depressed, make time for recreation and family.

You live on the surface of things, afraid to look within at what you really feel and want. Perhaps your position is too precarious or the obligations too great to allow yourself this luxury. You feel forced to maintain your personal status quo. You come across to others as unfeeling. Because personal feelings do not distract you, you might make a good scientist, though be aware that the greatest scientists let intuitive feelings be their guide.

A lack of planets in the houses of Endings can be offset by abundant planets in Water signs.

You could have difficulty envisioning or planning for the future. You are likely to accept the status quo, living in the past and present, but not actively striving to create the future. Lacking your own passionate goals, you are more likely to be a follower than a leader.

A lack of planets in the houses of Life can be offset by abundant planets in Fire signs.

With an abundance of planets in Fixed signs, you have the staying power to complete a project, grow a family, or expand a business. Your strength is what friends notice most about you. You have definite values; you focus your affections on the people and things that are part of your team. Friendships formed over time are important to you. You may be found at the center of a circle of friends, a large family, a government agency, or a business. You understand the contribution that stability and security make to prosperity and growth. It throws you off-balance when friends are not as reliable as you are or when love and ideals are not part of your life. Concentrate on developing confidence in yourself, a wholesome world for your family or group, and binding others to you with love. If you have a weakness, it is trouble changing or listening when people tell you a better way to do things. You can handle this weakness by empowering your team, as among them will be individuals who are good at reacting to a constantly changing world.

With a lack of planets in Cardinal signs, you may have trouble starting things. You may be timid about developing and carrying out plans. You would prefer to let others break the first ground of a new venture, so that you can pitch in and help once the outlines of the venture are clear. You probably lack confidence in your mastery of the real world and survival in it. You may substitute a rich inner life for your lack of action in the outer world. In its highest form, you may be unusually creative or spiritually committed. Ideas filter up as you focus on 'being' instead of 'doing'. Watch out for the lower manifestations, which are delegating tasks to others and pitying yourself over the lot that befalls you in life as a result of your lack of direction and initiative. Your different perspective on life gives you valuable insights that let you make real contributions wherever you are.

A lack of planets in the Cardinal signs can be offset by a Cardinal sign ascendant or by abundant planets in the Angular houses.

An abundance of planets in the angular houses helps to give you drive and initiative. It makes you active in the external world. Expressing your individuality is important to you. You are probably a leader who enjoys challenges and can get things moving.

A lack of planets in the cadent houses tends to reduce the time that you have to yourself. You may feel that you are always in the limelight or somehow involved with others. This leaves you little time for solitary reflection. The life of a spiritual recluse is not for you. You don't change quickly, but must gradually grow into changes.

A lack of planets in the Cadent houses can be offset by abundant planets in the Mutable signs.

A lack of planets in succedent houses gives you a certain emotional detachment. You do not pay much attention to the pleasures of the body or to cultivating a particular group of friends. Enjoying life is not the most important thing to you. You act not on the basis of feeling or principle, but from necessity. You tend to be a restless wanderer of either the world or the mind.

A lack of planets in the Succedent houses can be offset by abundant planets in the Fixed signs.
