Vince Vaughn's Astrological
Chart

Introduction
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.
Ascendant and Midheaven Delineations
First House Ruler Sign and House
The Ascendant and First House
The Ascendant and First House describe the character of your private self. This includes the appearance of your body and inherent qualities of your self. Aries is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Mars. Mars in Taurus is disposited by Venus.
Mars in Taurus
You are very persistent and patient when striving toward your goals. This is largely because you are too stubborn to give up. You also have powerful creative abilities and perhaps have developed a craft.
Money and other material possessions are important to you, and you prefer to surround yourself with the best quality you can find. One of the lessons of this placement is to realize that intangible things also have great value. Another lesson is to learn to share the great bounty that you acquire for yourself.
You enjoy a great deal of sensual contact with your partner and need someone who is likewise predisposed to being "touchy- feely." You need secure and stable relationships but need to avoid getting stuck in a rut. At times you can be very stubborn and even may become jealous and possessive. You show your love through affection and by lavishing your partner with gifts, especially those you make with your own hands.
In sexual encounters you are slow to become aroused but then can exercise a great deal of endurance in lovemaking. You seek a long-term relationship which will provide you with a constant source of love and sexual stimulation. Ups and downs in relationships can be upsetting to you.
Mars in the Second House
You are protective of the possessions you have acquired, and you will vigorously fight anyone who tries to gain control of your resources or take them away from you. When you decide you want to own something, there is no stopping you. Avoid compulsive shopping; you are likely to be disappointed with your choice in the end. You may lose many things (and people) you value so you can learn to be less possessive.
First House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Moon inconjunct Mars (Strength: 01.69)
You have difficulty in exercising self-control when expressing your feelings. Your tendency to misjudge others leads you to form binding relationships with others who will take advantage of you. Even while they abuse and misuse you, though, you will not raise a hand to protect yourself. You feel helpless to fight the demands others make on you and end up becoming bitter and disappointed. This can cause you to be cold and hardened toward others. You have a genuine desire to be helpful to others, but they seem to want you to solve all their problems.
This aspect gives you a great deal of occupational versatility. No matter what you choose for a career, be sure you don't end up doing all the work while someone else gets the credit. Also avoid situations in which you may be forced to take the blame for something you did not do.
Don't continually offer your help to others. Although you are extending a hand so others will like you, they may actually lose respect for you if you become a doormat. Take care of your own business and don't get involved in everyone else's problems. Try to develop more self-confidence and ignore those who would call you selfish when you won't devote yourself to serving their needs.
The major physical problems associated with this aspect are those problems caused by tension and stress. In your personal relationships you need to surround yourself with those who are easy-going and supportive rather than those who are demanding and critical.
Second House Ruler Sign and House
The Second House
The Second House relates to energy flowing into the physical structure of your private self. This includes sense impressions, food, possessions and money. Taurus is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Venus. Venus in Aries is disposited by Mars.
Venus in Aries
With Venus in Aries, you have a naive, impulsive approach to love. If you are not careful to take time to get to know someone, you may marry for pure physical attraction rather than for love and commitment. Since you tend to act impulsively in relationships, you can sometimes be inconsiderate of the feelings of others.
Your desire nature is very intense, and you desire a direct and impulsive lover. Although you are romantic, you are not necessarily subtle. You seek immediate gratification of your needs--in effect, move in for the kill. If a potential lover shows no interest, you will not wait around until they do. You approach each new love with enthusiasm and joy, enjoying every moment for itself.
Because you are harder to "tie down" than the average person, you would be better off with a lover who is more stable and patient than you. They would serve as an anchor to keep you still long enough to appreciate being grounded in a love relationship. They must be able to see that you are not really fickle, but rather childishly enthusiastic about life.
You are "in love with love" and are frequently disappointed when your torrid romances don't last. Instead of jumping into relationships head first, you should learn to be patient and really get to know your partner before giving your heart away. It would be best for you to choose a partner who is more cautious than you are and to let them set the pace of the relationship.
Venus in the First House
With your natural charm and magnetic personality, you have a way of winning people over to your arguments. You are probably physically attractive and will maintain this quality well into your later years. You have a deep appreciation for art and enjoy surrounding yourself with beautiful objects. Your love life is very important to you, and you feel a lack if you have no partner in your life.

Third House Ruler Sign and House
The Third House
The Third House controls activity within your private self. The energies of this house relate to your sources of mental stimulation and personal activities such as thinking, speaking, writing, errands, and hobbies. Gemini is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Mercury. Mercury in Aries is disposited by Mars.
Mercury in Aries
You are an impulsive and spontaneous thinker, and you must develop greater patience and self-control in order to use your quick mind to its fullest potential. There seems to be no limit to your bright ideas, but you are not so strong on discipline and follow through, so that you start many projects but finish very few. You enjoy debate and argument, and you can have a sharp tongue.
Others find you witty and entertaining, and indeed you have a talent for "thinking on your feet." You may be quick- tempered, especially with others who cause you delay or opposition, thus curbing your spontaneous style. Your mind moves very quickly, and you often act impulsively without considering all of the possible repercussions of your deeds. One of your greatest challenges is to develop greater concentration and self-control.
Sound has a strong effect on you and soft music helps soothe your nerves when you feel frazzled. With your keen senses of sight and hearing, you are very observant. You are also very sensitive to smells and cannot tolerate foul odors. Your sense of touch is not as well developed, and you will have to work at it to become dexterous.
You have definite ideas about what you do and do not want, and at times you may insist that your way is the only way. Like all good warriors (ruled by Aries), you are alert and ready for battle should the need arise. However, you are at a loss for diplomatic skills during times of peace. The more self-discipline you develop, the less conflict you will have in your life.
Mercury in the First House
You have a keen sense of humor and a sharp, curious mind. You cannot tolerate boredom, and may become restless and high- strung. You'll maintain a youthful look, even into your later years. With your burning desire to express your ideas, you can be an eloquent speaker. Avoid a tendency to jump to conclusions before examining the entire situation.
Third House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Moon trine Mercury (Strength: 04.27)
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.
Sun conjunct Mercury (Strength: 01.68)
You have very strong opinions and don't hesitate to state them without being asked. This can be irritating to people, especially since you tend to dismiss their own opinions as unimportant. You usually have the first and last word in any discussion. In your haste to be first, you may make decisions prematurely. This means you may have to retract what you've said later, and this is not easy for you. You don't like to admit you were wrong and can be very self-centered.
You are creative and could be a good leader if you would take the time to make good decisions. You need to take others' needs into consideration and to learn a little humility. At times you can be something of a "know-it-all," which can be very annoying to others. Try to cultivate some objectivity.
Communication comes naturally for you, and you can express yourself articulately. You love to give orders but may become frustrated if they are not followed. You are not above intimidating others to get their support. Express this aspect more positively by inspiring rather than threatening others. Your enthusiasm can be infectious, and you can work well with the public. You are good at making and carrying out plans.
In your love life, be careful of your tendency to misinterpret your partner's signals. Try to see yourself through their eyes during times of misunderstanding. Your partner should be able to take your directness and lack of diplomacy. You speak straight from the heart.

Fourth House Ruler Sign and House
The Fourth House
The Fourth House describes the character of your private environment. This includes your home life and parents, especially the mother. Cancer is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by The Moon. The Moon in Sagittarius is disposited by Jupiter.
Moon in Sagittarius
Persons with this moon placement know their own emotional make-up very well and are able to make required adjustments in life quite easily. They have a strong sense of direction in life and set high goals for themselves. Others are continually amazed as they set seemingly impossible goals for themselves and then go on to achieve them. The only danger is that they will become ruthless in their pursuit of success and reach the top with no friends to congratulate them.
Although they are good at combining business with pleasure, when the chips are down business always wins out. Lunar Sagittarians are eternally optimistic, even when they should be exercising caution instead. They are often dedicated to philosophical causes and may even participate in non-political revolutionary practices at home or in the office. They want to make a difference--to influence the lives of others.
Gambling is a potential problem with this Moon placement, and this is partially a result of overoptimism. Natives may believe that they simply cannot lose and therefore take unconsidered risks. Although they feel very lucky, they actually are not.
Romantically, persons with Moon in Sagittarius are great companions to their mates. They need more than just sexual fulfillment from their partners--they require romance and spirituality. If it is necessary to terminate a relationship, they do so quickly and cleanly without looking back. They know something better is waiting just around the next corner.
Moon in the Ninth House
You constantly seek to broaden your horizons and are a compulsive traveler. If you are forced to stay in one place too long you become bored and restless. Education is another way you could expand your mind. You look for a higher meaning behind everything that happens to you.
Although you appreciate logic and higher learning, you rely on your emotions to guide you through life. Therefore, you may prefer poetry and novels to nonfiction books. The things that affect you most strongly are those which appeal to your emotions.
With this Moon placement you must learn to let go of values and attitudes you picked up early in life. You tend to retain knowledge and habits even when they become outdated. Don't be limited by values that were instilled in you during childhood. They may no longer be valid.
In your social life you are attracted to others who share your spiritual and philosophical outlook on life. You need a partner who will encourage you to continually learn and grow. A restrictive or possessive partner would be unbearable for you.

Jupiter opposite Saturn (Strength: 02.21)
Jupiter and Saturn are opposites in what they represent in astrology. Jupiter stands for growth and expansion, Saturn for discipline and structure. You may find that you swing from one to the other. Or you may totally forsake one in favor of the other. How this is manifested depends on you.
At times you may feel very confident in your abilities. At other times you may feel you are worthless. A strained relationship with your parents or other authority figures may have contributed to this self-doubt. This acts as a block to success, which can only be achieved once you are secure in your own worth and not threatened by the success of others around you.
Because you need to prove yourself to the world (and to yourself), you attract people who will challenge you to demonstrate your capabilities. But if they don't approve, you may turn away in spite and look for others who will give you the praise you seek. You need to accept the truth that everyone has areas in which they excel and allow this for yourself as well as for others.
One area in which you could use better judgment is in your love life and friendships. You are quick to reject others but cannot accept rejection yourself. Your indifferent attitude causes problems in your personal relationships.
Fifth House Ruler Sign and House
The Fifth House
The Fifth House describes energy flow involving the structure of your private environment. This includes the stimulation provided by your friends, social network, offspring, and entertainment. Leo is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by The Sun. The Sun in Aries is disposited by Mars.
Sun in Aries
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, the newborn consciousness. Natives of this sign often retain qualities associated with youth--such as innocence and naivete-- throughout their lives. Like an infant, Aries is conscious only of his or her own needs. These people demand immediate satisfaction of their needs and will throw "temper tantrums" if they don't get it.
This may seem very selfish, but look again. Also like a child, Aries is quick to reward those who serve them with warm smiles and special favors. They are not even aware that they are causing any inconvenience to anyone. And this innocence serves to mask his or her aggressiveness.
Again like a baby, Aries people seem to be fearless but are in fact very vulnerable. Even after getting burned these people will forget the hurt and go back to try again, always believing that this time will be different. What you see is what you get with Aries, and the only "smooth" thing about them is their ability to handle a crisis unruffled. They will be outspoken and honest with you, and they are also willing to fight for what they believe in. But you may never see them shed a tear; they'd rather die than be caught being "weak" (especially the men).
The Ram is also endlessly optimistic, daring and enterprising. Often he or she feels committed to some mission in life, usually supporting the underdog or promoting social change. They can be very effective in such endeavors because they won't let anyone stop them from attaining their goals. The lesson for Aries is to realize their personal goals and also cultivate some humility and diplomacy (like someone else who is believed to have been born under the sign of Aries--Joan of Arc).
Another challenge for Aries is to learn to use love wisely. Instead of using others' love for you to manipulate them to serve you, give love to others selflessly, expecting nothing in return. This is the point where the baby grows up, leaving behind the egocentric and demanding infant.
Most Aries receive a head injury at some time in their lives, usually incurred as a result of their own rash behavior. Physically, problem areas include the knees, stomach and skin. He or she may also be subject to dental problems, migraine headaches and kidney diseases. Natives of this sign should definitely avoid alcohol.
Sun in the First House
This house placement indicates a very forceful personality. The issue of power will keep reoccurring in your relationships, and you must learn to cultivate a spirit of compromise. However, you would prefer to dominate your partner, simply because you are quicker to act and react than he or she is. Just be careful not to unintentionally do emotional harm to your loved ones. Be sure that you strive for equality of expression in your dealings with others. Don't monopolize the conversation or make plans without asking their opinion first.
You are a person who stands out in a crowd. You attract others easily and usually make a good first impression, unless you overwhelm them with your powerful personality. Relax and let your natural charm take over, and you will more easily win friends and influence people.
You are very direct and honest (sometimes brutally). You believe in getting to the point and are not inclined to indulge in elaborate courting rituals. Because of your honesty, relationships can begin and end abruptly. You will not hold on to a relationship that is not working out well.
This house placement also indicates that you are generally healthy. You are also very courageous and would like to be a leader (or ruler).
Fifth House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Sun opposite Uranus (Strength: 06.08)
You are somewhat nervous and irritable, and although it may be difficult for you, you need to relax as much as you can. As a matter of fact, it is mandatory for your physical health that you do. Because of your inner insecurities, your self-esteem is quite low. You doubt your own competency when faced with competition, yet you seem to draw others to you who will continually challenge you. In truth, you are exceptionally talented and are using others to draw this out. If you really want to emerge the victor, you can.
It is often difficult for you to get along with others. You can be highly opinionated, but are impatient with and critical of the opinions of others. Learn to listen to others' viewpoints as well as you expect them to listen to yours. Remember--if you knew all there is to know, there would be nothing left for you to learn. Accept the fact that the wisest person is one who recognizes how much he or she does not know.
In a career you would do well in the fields of education, social work or science. You are happiest in a line of work which allows you to exploit your rich creative resources while performing a valued service to society.
You are also competitive in your personal relationships. You are subject to radical swings in mood, which can alienate those closest to you--who, of course, bear the brunt of it. Friends who are not as high-strung as you seem boring, and you are impatient with their slowness. Although you are quick to make demands on others, you demand your own freedom. As a way of proving your freedom, you are often promiscuous. Just be sure to grant the same independence to those around you.
Sun conjunct Mercury (Strength: 01.68)
You have very strong opinions and don't hesitate to state them without being asked. This can be irritating to people, especially since you tend to dismiss their own opinions as unimportant. You usually have the first and last word in any discussion. In your haste to be first, you may make decisions prematurely. This means you may have to retract what you've said later, and this is not easy for you. You don't like to admit you were wrong and can be very self-centered.

In your love life, be careful of your tendency to misinterpret your partner's signals. Try to see yourself through their eyes during times of misunderstanding. Your partner should be able to take your directness and lack of diplomacy. You speak straight from the heart.
Sun trine Neptune (Strength: 00.08)
You are very talented, but you may not be motivated to do anything about it. You tend to start many projects but finish few of them. You learn quickly and then rush on to the next new item.
You are extremely psychic and have the ability to seemingly pick up information out of thin air. As a child you may have been bored by teachers who seemed to be giving you information you already knew. You learn so easily that you find no challenge in it. Therefore, it is difficult to move you to take action.
You will face few challenges in your life that seem insurmountable. Your greatest vice is that of procrastination. You may operate best being self-employed. Then you can operate at your own pace, with no one depending on you to meet their schedules. You would do well in: art, drama, writing, education and research.
You must have mutual trust in your close relationships. Although you are devoted to your mate, you allow him or her a great deal of personal freedom (and it is probably mutual). You would greatly enjoy children and a stable family life.
Moon inconjunct Mars (Strength: 01.69)
You have difficulty in exercising self-control when expressing your feelings. Your tendency to misjudge others leads you to form binding relationships with others who will take advantage of you. Even while they abuse and misuse you, though, you will not raise a hand to protect yourself. You feel helpless to fight the demands others make on you and end up becoming bitter and disappointed.

The major physical problems associated with this aspect are those problems caused by tension and stress. In your personal relationships you need to surround yourself with those who are easy-going and supportive rather than those who are demanding and critical.

You are creative and could be a good leader if you would take the time to make good decisions. You need to take others' needs into consideration and to learn a little humility. At times you can be something of a "know-it-all," which can be very annoying to others. Try to cultivate some objectivity.
Communication comes naturally for you, and you can express yourself articulately. You love to give orders but may become frustrated if they are not followed. You are not above intimidating others to get their support. Express this aspect more positively by inspiring rather than threatening others. Your enthusiasm can be infectious, and you can work well with the public. You are good at making and carrying out plans.
In your love life, be careful of your tendency to misinterpret your partner's signals. Try to see yourself through their eyes during times of misunderstanding. Your partner should be able to take your directness and lack of diplomacy. You speak straight from the heart.
Moon inconjunct Mars (Strength: 01.69)
You have difficulty in exercising self-control when expressing your feelings. Your tendency to misjudge others leads you to form binding relationships with others who will take advantage of you. Even while they abuse and misuse you, though, you will not raise a hand to protect yourself. You feel helpless to fight the demands others make on you and end up becoming bitter and disappointed. This can cause you to be cold and hardened toward others. You have a genuine desire to be helpful to others, but they seem to want you to solve all their problems.
This aspect gives you a great deal of occupational versatility. No matter what you choose for a career, be sure you don't end up doing all the work while someone else gets the credit. Also avoid situations in which you may be forced to take the blame for something you did not do.
Don't continually offer your help to others. Although you are extending a hand so others will like you, they may actually lose respect for you if you become a doormat. Take care of your own business and don't get involved in everyone else's problems. Try to develop more self-confidence and ignore those who would call you selfish when you won't devote yourself to serving their needs.
The major physical problems associated with this aspect are those problems caused by tension and stress. In your personal relationships you need to surround yourself with those who are easy-going and supportive rather than those who are demanding and critical.
Seventh House Ruler Sign and House
The Seventh House
The Seventh House relates to building the self that you present to the public world. It therefore covers legal definitions of the self such as marriage and partnerships. It controls your characteristic public self-expression. Libra is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Venus. Venus in Aries is disposited by Mars.
Venus in Aries
With Venus in Aries, you have a naive, impulsive approach to love. If you are not careful to take time to get to know someone, you may marry for pure physical attraction rather than for love and commitment. Since you tend to act impulsively in relationships, you can sometimes be inconsiderate of the feelings of others.
Your desire nature is very intense, and you desire a direct and impulsive lover. Although you are romantic, you are not necessarily subtle. You seek immediate gratification of your needs--in effect, move in for the kill. If a potential lover shows no interest, you will not wait around until they do. You approach each new love with enthusiasm and joy, enjoying every moment for itself.
Because you are harder to "tie down" than the average person, you would be better off with a lover who is more stable and patient than you. They would serve as an anchor to keep you still long enough to appreciate being grounded in a love relationship. They must be able to see that you are not really fickle, but rather childishly enthusiastic about life.
You are "in love with love" and are frequently disappointed when your torrid romances don't last. Instead of jumping into relationships head first, you should learn to be patient and really get to know your partner before giving your heart away. It would be best for you to choose a partner who is more cautious than you are and to let them set the pace of the relationship.
Venus in the First House
With your natural charm and magnetic personality, you have a way of winning people over to your arguments. You are probably physically attractive and will maintain this quality well into your later years. You have a deep appreciation for art and enjoy surrounding yourself with beautiful objects. Your love life is very important to you, and you feel a lack if you have no partner in your life.

Pluto in Virgo
(1956-1972)

Eighth House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Moon trine Mercury (Strength: 04.27)
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.

The Ninth House

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.
Jupiter in the Seventh House
You are friendly, good-natured and tolerant of others, and you will learn your most valuable lessons through relationships. With your strong need for personal freedom, it is not easy for you to settle down with one partner. You may benefit materially through partnership or marriage. Traditionally, Jupiter in the Seventh indicates you will have a happy marriage, even though it may not be your first.
Ninth House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Jupiter opposite Saturn (Strength: 02.21)
Jupiter and Saturn are opposites in what they represent in astrology. Jupiter stands for growth and expansion, Saturn for discipline and structure. You may find that you swing from one to the other. Or you may totally forsake one in favor of the other. How this is manifested depends on you.
At times you may feel very confident in your abilities. At other times you may feel you are worthless. A strained relationship with your parents or other authority figures may have contributed to this self-doubt. This acts as a block to success, which can only be achieved once you are secure in your own worth and not threatened by the success of others around you.
Because you need to prove yourself to the world (and to yourself), you attract people who will challenge you to demonstrate your capabilities. But if they don't approve, you may turn away in spite and look for others who will give you the praise you seek. You need to accept the truth that everyone has areas in which they excel and allow this for yourself as well as for others.
One area in which you could use better judgment is in your love life and friendships. You are quick to reject others but cannot accept rejection yourself. Your indifferent attitude causes problems in your personal relationships.
Tenth House Ruler Sign and House
The Midheaven and Tenth House
The Midheaven and Tenth House relate to the character of your public environment. They describe your career and contribution to the world. During childhood they can describe the father. Capricorn is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Saturn. Saturn in Taurus is disposited by Venus.
Saturn in Taurus
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.
Saturn in the Second House
You are practical, hard-working, and motivated to succeed because of your fear of not having enough. In financial matters you are thrifty and cautious, and in the extreme you can become miserly. Don't worry so much over money that you are unable to enjoy what you have. Success in love and money may be delayed until later in life. Your difficulties in these areas will end as you become less attached.

Saturn inconjunct Uranus (Strength: 00.98)
You have a hard time setting priorities in life; this is partly because you are driven by a need to win the approval of others. It is possible that you do not see yourself this way but rather talk yourself into believing that you need please no one but yourself. But examine your feelings and actions more carefully and you will see that you are more concerned than you know about what others think of you.
The idea of making changes in your life is threatening to you; you fear losing the security you now have. But you can't prevent change from happening; it's inevitable. By living in the past, it becomes difficult for you to accept new innovations and technologies as time passes. This can result in your being left behind as the rest of society passes you by. The secret to your success in life lies in the ability to accept change and new experiences. This is the only way that you can grow.
It is possible that you will encounter stressful relationships with lovers. Often your partner is just pushing you to develop the vast potential they see in you. Try to strike a compromise and to trust your loved ones' assessments of your talents. You don't see your own good points as well as others do.
Maintaining a pessimistic and defeatist attitude will only result in physical problems. You are prone to such ailments as arthritis or hardening of the arteries. At the very least, you are grouchy and difficult to deal with at times. Softening your attitude will help soothe the discomforts of your body, which are only a reflection of your inner stiffness.
Your conservative sexual attitude does not permit you to engage in the areas of sex that you would find most gratifying. Consequently, you often enjoy most the areas of sex that make you feel the most guilty. The healthiest use of this energy is to apply it to bedroom fantasies that are acted out. Just be sure your lover knows what is going on.
Eleventh House Ruler Sign and House
The Eleventh House
The Eleventh House describes energy flow involving the structure of your public environment. This includes altruistic, humanitarian social networking by you. Aquarius is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Uranus. Uranus in Libra is disposited by Venus.
Uranus in Libra
(1968-1975)
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.
Uranus in the Sixth House
You are restless and impatient, and this can result in nervous tension if you are not careful. You are a good worker and invent clever shortcuts on the job. Just be careful you don't leave out important details in your haste to get the job done. You will be happiest as your own boss or in a position where you call the shots, and you prefer a job which is unusual and definitely not routine.
Eleventh House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Sun opposite Uranus (Strength: 06.08)
You are somewhat nervous and irritable, and although it may be difficult for you, you need to relax as much as you can. As a matter of fact, it is mandatory for your physical health that you do. Because of your inner insecurities, your self-esteem is quite low. You doubt your own competency when faced with competition, yet you seem to draw others to you who will continually challenge you. In truth, you are exceptionally talented and are using others to draw this out. If you really want to emerge the victor, you can.
It is often difficult for you to get along with others. You can be highly opinionated, but are impatient with and critical of the opinions of others. Learn to listen to others' viewpoints as well as you expect them to listen to yours. Remember--if you knew all there is to know, there would be nothing left for you to learn. Accept the fact that the wisest person is one who recognizes how much he or she does not know.
In a career you would do well in the fields of education, social work or science. You are happiest in a line of work which allows you to exploit your rich creative resources while performing a valued service to society.
You are also competitive in your personal relationships. You are subject to radical swings in mood, which can alienate those closest to you--who, of course, bear the brunt of it. Friends who are not as high-strung as you seem boring, and you are impatient with their slowness. Although you are quick to make demands on others, you demand your own freedom. As a way of proving your freedom, you are often promiscuous. Just be sure to grant the same independence to those around you.

Twelfth House Ruler Sign and House
The Twelfth House
The Twelfth House controls activity and change within your public environment. The energies of this house describe selfless service to the public, creating work or problems for the self, activities to dissolve the self, and solitary retreat. Pisces is on the cusp of this house, so it is ruled by Neptune. Neptune in Sagittarius is disposited by Jupiter.
Neptune in Sagittarius
(1970-1984)
You are philosophical and even prophetic about societal change. You have a strong love for freedom and a restless optimism about the future. Since you have clairvoyant abilities, you can gain knowledge from your dreams and visions. You will fight religious and moral fanaticism.
Neptune in the Eighth House
You are highly intuitive and have strong psychic and precognitive abilities. It is easy for you to do astral traveling during sleep or altered states of consciousness. You are strongly interested in spiritual and metaphysical matters. Your challenge is to channel your psychic abilities into efforts designed to help uplift and heal humanity. You may suffer financial loss if you attempt to deceive others.
Twelfth House Ruler and Dispositor Aspects
Sun trine Neptune (Strength: 00.08)
You are very talented, but you may not be motivated to do anything about it. You tend to start many projects but finish few of them. You learn quickly and then rush on to the next new item.
You are extremely psychic and have the ability to seemingly pick up information out of thin air. As a child you may have been bored by teachers who seemed to be giving you information you already knew. You learn so easily that you find no challenge in it. Therefore, it is difficult to move you to take action.
You will face few challenges in your life that seem insurmountable. Your greatest vice is that of procrastination. You may operate best being self-employed. Then you can operate at your own pace, with no one depending on you to meet their schedules. You would do well in: art, drama, writing, education and research.
You must have mutual trust in your close relationships. Although you are devoted to your mate, you allow him or her a great deal of personal freedom (and it is probably mutual). You would greatly enjoy children and a stable family life.
