Second, regardless of the amount of harmony between you, there will always be individual
planetary energies between you that are discordant. The below planetary interaspects are
sorted from most discordant to most harmonious. Why are the most discordant planetary
aspects listed first? Because these energies are what we most need to work on and transform
in our relationship with the other person. The good energy comes naturally, but the discordant
energy must be transmuted into positive energy if we are to make the most of any
relationship.
Third, by understanding the below, use your best energies in order to improve and overcome
your worst energies.

MEANINGS OF INTERPLANETARY ASPECTS
Ara is Ascendant and Marilyn is Neptune (discord = -7.66) -- Neptune square Ascendant -
This aspect indicates mutual difficulties in psychological understanding due to differences in
level of awareness and cultural background. Marilyn will seem evasive and confusing to Ara.
Marilyn, Ara is likely to regard you as lost in your own private fantasy world, unreliable and
hard to pin down to definite mutual commitments and responsibilities. Ara can seem
self-centered or overly aggressive to Marilyn, and Marilyn can be apprehensive of the
consequences of Ara's actions.
Ara is Pluto and Marilyn is Moon (discord = -6.46) -- Moon square Pluto - Ara has a disrupting
influence on Marilyn. This aspect tends to create antipathy rather than agreement. Ara will
seem contrary to Marilyn and Ara's influence on Marilyn can be in some way unfortunate. In
marriage there may be serious misunderstandings which cause domestic and family troubles.
There also could arise problems of sexual origin.
Ara is Venus and Marilyn is Ascendant (discord = -5.03) -- Venus square Ascendant - This
aspect is not favorable for marital and romantic relationships. The personal habits and social
mannerisms of Marilyn are likely to be unattractive to the social sensibilities of Ara. Ara may
seem like a "prima donna" to Marilyn. You may not share aesthetic, business and social
values. Impulsive, emotional behavior on your part or on both your parts may cause problems
in the relationship.
Ara is Mercury and Marilyn is Venus (discord = -4.74) -- Mercury square Venus - This aspect
is not seriously conflicting, but just not as completely harmonizing or mutually beneficial as
other MERCURY-VENUS aspects. There may be minor irritations at times. Ara tends to
disregard the emotional needs or attributes of Marilyn and seems cold and calculating to
Marilyn in some way.
Ara is Uranus and Marilyn is Ascendant (discord = -4.03) -- Uranus square Ascendant - You
will encounter difficulties in cooperating in personal, marital, professional, domestic and occult
activities. A clash of wills is likely, and, if there is to be harmony, each of you must respect the
other's freedom and independence. In marital relationships, this aspect does not favor an
enduring relationship. Marilyn is likely to regard Ara as inconsiderate, uncooperative,
bohemian, eccentric, antisocial, impractical, and much too radical. Ara may regard Marilyn as
self-centered, spiritually unaware or simply nondescript.
Ara is Jupiter and Marilyn is Pluto (discord = -3.60) -- Jupiter square Pluto - Frustrating,
conflicting aspirations and ideals can create misunderstandings or make cooperation difficult.
This is a spiritually testing aspect, especially to Ara.
Ara is Pluto and Marilyn is Jupiter (discord = -2.11) -- Jupiter square Pluto - Frustrating,
conflicting aspirations and ideals can create misunderstandings or make cooperation difficult.
This is a spiritually testing aspect, especially to Marilyn.
Page 3 of 45
Ara is Moon and Marilyn is Saturn (discord = -2.09) -- Moon conjunct Saturn - Whether this
aspect works for good or ill depends on other aspects between your two charts. Marilyn tends
to discipline Ara. This factor may be stabilizing in many cases, but, in others, Marilyn may
have a depressing and limiting effect on Ara. Marilyn can affect Ara's moods and feelings
adversely; Marilyn can also be critical of Ara. A tendency to be cool, indifferent or demanding
may show up. If there is agreement of aims between the two of you, this aspect aids the
practical application of abilities, since Marilyn can help Ara plan and build and Ara can be
adaptable. Marilyn will need to avoid selfishness toward Ara. Marilyn looks to Ara for
understanding and sympathy. Ara, if you incline to be pessimistic, Marilyn will make you more
so, and will also discourage you further. Marilyn brings burden, worry, duty, responsibility or
anxiety to Ara.
Where marriage is concerned, Marilyn can give Ara a sense of security unless Marilyn is
insecure also. Marilyn is protective toward Ara. This aspect makes an attachment very binding
as a rule, whether for friendship, business or marriage. It is sometimes found in horoscopes of
persons of widely different ages.
(this aspect is neutral and could go either way) -- Jupiter conjunct Jupiter - This aspect
denotes similarity, if not complete agreement, in ideals, ethics, morals, aspirations, religious or
spiritual conceptions. You will inspire much good in each other and will encourage optimism,
self-confidence, humor and will benefit each other or protect each other in many ways. There
is much companionship, mutual interests and mutual appreciation. You usually look for each
other's good qualities and appreciate them. You are tolerant, considerate and forgiving toward
each other.
(this aspect is neutral and could go either way) -- Saturn conjunct Saturn - There will be a
similarity of attitude in regard to security and ambitions. You both will understand each other's
security urges. You may have similar problems, responsibilities and limitations. In harmonious
charts this aspect aids constructive efforts toward a common goal. However, you are likely to
experience similar problems also, and, your attitude toward duty or responsibility being similar,
it can swing your approach to your shared problems too much one way, thus handicapping
your progress together. The reaction on each other will increase any tendency in either of you
to fear, worry or lack of self-confidence. Unless there are many aspects stimulating hope,
optimism and activity, to balance this one, you could have a devitalizing effect on each other.
Ara is Mercury and Marilyn is Pluto (this aspect is neutral and could go either way) -- Mercury
conjunct Pluto - The experiences the two of you have together will stimulate Ara's mind and
bring changes in both your lives. Much contact together will broaden your viewpoints or
expand your range of interests, especially in Ara. Whether this association contributes to
harmony or to the spiritual, mental or material welfare of you both depends upon other factors
in the comparison. Marilyn's influence on Ara is stronger than Ara's on Marilyn. Marilyn may
try to dominate Ara's mind and, if so, could be ruthless.
Page 4 of 45
Ara is Neptune and Marilyn is Sun (this aspect is neutral and could go either way) -- Sun
conjunct Neptune - Power urge combines with escape or atonement urge. If there are a
majority of good aspects linking your two charts, this aspect will indicate a spiritual tie, much
inspiration, understanding, sympathy, empathy and unusual sensitivity to each other. There is
a psychic tie or stimulus of occult interests between the two of you. Between persons of the
opposite sex, this aspect inspires reverence, romance, devotion, idealism, tolerance and
personal sacrifice. Much compassion and sometimes pity establish the relationship. The
attachment is subtle, but forges a strong bond. However, if your two charts show many
discordant aspects, this aspect, even though inducing sympathy, also produces seductiveness
and deception. Ara may make promises which are not kept or may keep secrets from Marilyn.
Ara will always be elusive or unfathomable in some way to Marilyn, even when the
comparison is considered good.
Ara is Saturn and Marilyn is Moon (this aspect is mildly harmonious) -- Moon sextile Saturn -
Ara steadies Marilyn and Marilyn enlarges the ideas of Ara. The emotions of Marilyn are
stabilized by Ara. Ara will be dependable and steadfast toward Marilyn. Ara can counsel
Marilyn, for there is usually mutual respect. This aspect encourages friendly contacts between
persons of wide difference of age. Ara brings out the conservative qualities in Marilyn. In

to management of money.

marriage and improves prospects for your emotional compatibility and the understanding of
each other's basic modes of self-expression.
Ara is Mercury and Marilyn is Sun (harmony = 0.91) -- Sun sextile Mercury - Creative power
urge harmonizes with mental urge. Good mental understanding and probably many common

Ara is Mars and Marilyn is Neptune (harmony = 5.24) -- Mars sextile Neptune - The influence

Page 6 of 45

FINAL THOUGHTS
HUMAN RELATIONS
The ability to get along harmoniously with our fellow men and women is an asset impossible
to overestimate. The success and happiness of every individual rest upon it. There is scarcely
any activity or situation in life that does not involve contact with other human beings. The more
easily a person adjusts himself to family, community, and the associations he forms in earning
his livelihood, the smoother will be his path in life. Nearly all the tension and strain of modern
living is brought about, not by difficult conditions, but by disturbing emotions aroused in
personal, group, or public contacts.
A prime requisite for getting along with others is self-understanding and self-control. If you
understand yourself, you will find it easier to understand others. Self-control enables you to
handle your contacts more positively.
Astrology emphasizes SELF-UNDERSTANDING because you must first know where your
own faults lie in adjusting yourself to others. In a horoscope we read individual personality
through the sign ascending at the hour of birth - the rising sign; therefore the opposite point
(the 7th house) is one's projected attitude toward others, or what we may call the general
public. Every square or opposition aspect in our horoscope can be viewed as a personality
trait which tests our ability to get along harmoniously with others. The testing may not come
out as an open conflict, and the more emotionally mature the individual is, the less apt it is to
do so. In this case it remains a psychological factor, part of the character or spiritual growth.
Such a tension or problem of adjustment may present itself in family relationships or marriage,
or in business or friendships. The planets symbolize one's instincts and urges, and if there is
an inner conflict, as indicated by a square or opposition aspect in the individual horoscope,
and by some of the conjunctions (principally those in which one of the malefics is involved -
Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto), this inner conflict will express itself in many, though
probably not all, of his human contacts.
Bear in mind that in comparing horoscopes you are analyzing the effect of one individual upon
another. The purpose of comparing horoscopes is to explore the possibilities and problems of
an association; to understand why another person affects you as he does and how you are
apt to affect him.
It is a law of attraction that our attracting or being attracted to certain persons or environments
is rarely, if ever, pure chance. When the association or environment is testing or unpleasant,
the experience has been attracted because of a conflict of personality in the individual nature
that needs to be resolved. We must come to terms with our own conflicting urges. Sometimes
the test may be up to our discrimination in accepting or refusing a situation or an association.
Some individuals may need to develop the courage and willpower to say "NO" to an
association that could be harmful to them.
Regarding romance and marriage, it is very important to distinguish the difference between
personality and character. Romance may begin with an attraction of personalities, but it is
CHARACTER that decides the success of a marriage. Astrology is the best way to diagnose
the character of a person or the characteristics of a relationship. Yet remember, the
Page 9 of 45
horoscope shows tendencies only. It is a matter for you to determine how any position will
work itself out. That will be determined by the use you make of your own WILLPOWER.
According to the dictionary, to attract is to "draw by some winning influence: charm, allure, to
entice, to win." We can insert parenthetically that some people are more attractive to the
opposite sex than others, and so attract more opportunities for romance and marriage. If you
are attracted to another person, you are interested, curious, have a friendly feeling, and are
disposed to look with favor upon that person. You'll pursue and encourage the
acquaintanceship. An attraction felt between members of the same sex creates friendship.
When two people of the opposite sex are strongly attracted and feel the pull of animal
magnetism, or what we can term the polarity of opposites, we have the basis for romance.
Sometimes such an attraction is superficial and temporary. Many a person has felt attracted to
another person of the opposite sex for a brief period and afterward wondered exactly what he
or she had seen in that person. Sometimes an attraction is one-sided. Many people mistake
pity for love, or are misled by flattery and attention. Sometimes an attraction springs from
sheer loneliness. If real love is to develop, the attraction should be more than a superficial
one. In comparing horoscopes we analyze various factors, and the greater the number of
aspects of attraction, the stronger will be the attraction.
Most IMPORTANT in judging attraction are the aspects between the Ascendant or
Descendant of one chart and the planets of the other chart, and vice versa. Unless the
Ascendant or Descendant of one horoscope combine with the planets of the other by sign
and/or aspect it is doubtful that, whatever the attraction, that it would result in marriage. It is
the Ascendant, symbolizing the personality of the individual, that determines the real power or
magnetism of the attraction. The Ascendant of one chart in aspect to planets of the other chart
CONFIRMS and SUPPORTS any congeniality and compatibility as read in the aspects formed
between planets in the respective horoscopes.
Couples who get along well usually agree in viewpoint. Temperaments may differ, but they
should be congenial. That is, they should blend or balance each other, not clash. This is
known as polarity. In astrology temperament is described by the elements: that is, fire, earth,
air, and water. It is important that the Ascendants of the two people be compatible, since the
Ascendant represents basic disposition and temperament. Fire combines easily with fire or air.
Earth combines easily with earth or water. Any other combination will probably denote friction
due to "rubbing each other the wrong way." Perhaps a simple example will better aid in
understanding. Imagine fire and water combining. They do not combine easily because their
natures are different. Either fire boils water and produces steam or water drenches fire and
extinguishes it. The same thing can happen when a fire person combines with a water person.
There is an analogous effect between people for the other combinations of the elements.
The astrological interpretations in this report have been formulated with the assumption that
both peoples' birth dates, times, and places are accurately given and have been accurately
Page 10 of 45
entered into the program. This includes whether the birth time was daylight savings time or
standard time. Even a difference of one hour in birth time can invalidate much of the
interpretation given in this report. If inaccurate birth data is used, then the interpretations in
this report will probably not apply, according to the ancient axiom, "garbage in, garbage out."

MY PHILOSOPHY OF ASTROLOGY
Astrology is the study of the effects of planetary forces upon man. It is not fortune telling. It is
one of the best methods for man to learn about who he is, where he came from and where he
is going. Astrology reveals CHARACTER and character is destiny. If man can change his
character, then man will have changed his destiny. The main uses of astrology are diagnosis
of health and sickness, character analysis, vocational guidance, analysis of children's
horoscopes so as to give parents a better idea as to how best to raise their children, and
analysis of the compatibilities between people.
Astrology does not show anything but tendencies. A man can rule his stars by exerting his will.
If a man decides to flow with the tide of life, then the tendencies indicated in the birth chart will
at some time have their effect. The one thing a birth chart does not show is the WILL of the
individual and how he may exert it. The matter of exercising free will is left entirely up to the
individual. The wise man rules his stars, the fool is ruled by them. Astrology forewarns and
being forewarned, a man is thus forearmed to better cope with the struggles of life.
Remember that good or so-called evil configurations are not the result of chance or luck, but
are the product of our own past acts — the horoscope shows what we have earned by our
past living and therefore what we are entitled to in the present life. What we lack in this life can
be gained in the future by applying ourselves to the task at hand. The stars IMPEL but do not
COMPEL. As Goethe, the great mystic, said, "From every power that holds the world in
chains, Man frees himself when self-control he gains."
The Law of Consequence ("Whatsoever a man sows, that he shall also reap") works in
harmony with the planets. The spirit is born into the physical world at that opportune time
when the Law and the planets may operate in harmony with each other. The birth of an Ego is
so timed by the Lords of Destiny, that the horoscope, which is the clock of destiny, registers
the kind of debts which the Ego has incurred in its previous lives, and the time when these
debts come to fruition, when the harvest from the seeds which have been sown must be
garnered. However, the law of destiny is not a blind law, for it may be modified to a certain
degree in proportion to the amount of will power awakened and utilized by the Ego. "For be
not deceived, God is not mocked. The mills of the gods grind exceedingly slow, but they grind
exceedingly fine."
There are three factors which bring to us the mystic message of the stars — the houses, the
signs and the planets. Each house represents a department of life, the signs are divisions of
the heavens which by their placement relative to the houses indicate our basic temperament
and attitude towards life, and the planets are the messengers of God which by their motion
through the houses and signs bring to us the opportunities for soul growth which we need for
our individual development. Think of the planets as representing the players in a play. The
signs, then, would describe the role that each player has and how he expresses his character,
Page 13 of 45
the houses represent the various settings of the play and the angular relationships between
the planets, the aspects, represent the plot of the play. Each planet has a characteristic
energy. That energy can be expressed either positively or negatively. The way that energy is
expressed is determined by the aspects of the other planets to that particular planet.
The horoscope shows tendencies only. It is a matter for you to determine how any planetary
position will work itself out. That will be determined by the use you make of your own
WILLPOWER.

THE RISING SIGN OR ASCENDANT
The sign that is on the eastern horizon at the moment of birth is called the Rising Sign or the
Ascendant. The Ascendant marks the difference in temperament, disposition, physical
appearance and personality of individuals. It is the lens through which everything else in the
chart is focused or looked through, thus coloring the way we look at everything. People see us
through our rising sign and we see the world through our rising sign.
PLANETARY ASPECTS
If the planets represent energies and cosmic forces that manifest in different ways, then the
planetary aspects show how these energies and forces tend to act and react, one with
another, if the will of the person is not brought into play to change them. It is the spiritual task
of each person to use the positive energies in such ways so as to change the negative
energies into positive energies. Negative energies are simply energies that are either
misdirected, misapplied, or applied in too great a quantity. One of our purposes in life is to
transform the negative energies into positive ones through the use of our Will.
Neptune discordant to Ascendant (power = 8.86 and this aspect is discordant = -8.86)
You can be selfless in relationships, perhaps too much so, at your own expense. Don't try to
save others and avoid the sorts of relationships where you either play the role of martyr or
victim. Stay strong and do not allow others to use you just because you are so kind and
gentle. You may lack self-confidence and this might cause you to place your faith in someone
who is not worthy of your trust. Stand on your own two feet.
Page 15 of 45
Saturn harmonizing with Ascendant (power = 8.45 and this aspect is harmonious = 4.23)
You tend to be loyal, reliable and serious. You have no difficulty assuming responsibility and
doing whatever duty you feel you have. You will have the opportunity to use your realistic,
practical and organizational skills to help yourself and others. Large groups of people do not
make you feel comfortable and it may be difficult for you to relax. You enjoy working and that
is how you try to relax.
Sun discordant to Moon (power = 8.38 and this aspect is discordant = -8.38)
Your selfishness and interest in your own affairs keeps you from being sympathetic to the
needs and feelings of others. You feel at cross-purposes with yourself because your
conscious intentions and desires conflict with your subconscious emotional needs and drives.
You feel pulled in two different directions. This is a major reason why you find it hard to be
decisive. You vacillate on whether or not you should do this or that and this causes you a
great deal of inner stress. You can't seem to make up your mind on anything. You try to do the
right thing, but you aren't sure what the right thing is. You have problems with satisfying both
your need to be an individual and your need for caring relationships and a sense of belonging.
Because of the mixed messages you send out, people don't always know how to respond to
you or know what you really want. This can cause confusion and conflict in relationships. You
need to find the right balance between your emotions and your will. Come to an awareness
that your energy flow fluctuates like the ebb and flow of the tides. When your energy is at a
high, you should try to accomplish as much as possible during that time. When your energy is
low, then you should pace yourself accordingly and not overtax your physical body. You often
fluctuate from being extremely logical to being extremely sensitive. Many times you are
unaware of other people's emotional needs and, thus, you fail to respond to them.
Jupiter discordant to Pluto (power = 8.16 and this aspect is discordant = -4.08)
You may need to learn to better respect other people's opinions, beliefs and viewpoints.
Others at times think you are too full of yourself. Practicing a bit more humility would draw
people closer to you. You have executive ability and know how to get things done. It's just that
you may not be sensitive enough to other people's needs or enough aware of what you are
asking them to do. It is important to you to believe that you are always right. This agitates
others because no one can be right all the time, and that is the impression they have of you —
that you think you are always right. Be open-minded regarding the suggestions and ideas of
others. Admit that you may not know it all and that there is room for further discovery. Be
tolerant, avoid fanatical ideas and expression, and help those around you by using your power
and leadership abilities to serve others rather than for simply gratifying your ego.
Sun harmonizing with Jupiter (power = 7.55 and this aspect is harmonious = 11.32)
Your optimism and cheerfulness win you many friends and help you succeed in life. You have
a lot of self-confidence which attracts benefits in amazing ways. You want to expand yourself
through some type of philosophy. This aspect helps protect you from danger and harm, even if
just at the last moment. You are enthusiastic and have good-spirits, good luck and a desire to
interact socially with others. A certain measure of material wealth is probable with this aspect.
You have big aspirations but do not struggle much or labor hard to achieve them. You are
generous, big-hearted, reliable, sincere, honest and idealistic with a strong sense of justice,
fairness, ethics and morality. Mean acts of revenge towards others are beneath you and you
will not jeopardize your character and your reputation by stooping to such levels. You are
Page 16 of 45
working on controlling your ego through some sort of religious or other philosophy. This
aspect brings much of life's happiness to you because you have earned benefits in previous
lives by being so kind and thoughtful to others.

You are naturally suspicious and curious about all kinds of hidden and secret things. You love
playing the detective, ferreting out any and all secret information. You are not content to
scratch the surface of knowledge, you have to go as deep as possible in order to seek out the
truth. You love a good mystery and subjects like death and dying, reincarnation, sex and
mystical or natural methods of healing are of interest to you. You like to know what everyone
is doing or thinking, but you rarely divulge what is on your mind. Because of your love of
research and investigation you may well be attracted to the fields of psychotherapy,
psychoanalysis, psychiatry or counseling in general. You have great powers of concentration
and a penetrating mind. You are able to size up people and situations quickly and accurately.
You are keenly observant and very little gets by you. You have sort of an x-ray vision
regarding the motivations and intentions of others. The occult side of life fascinates you and
gives you plenty of scope for your researching talents and interests. Stories of mystery,
intrigue, espionage, science fiction, etc. are favorite reading for you. You may have a morbid
side to you because of all this interest in underground or undercover subjects. But that is not
the way you see it at all. You just want to learn everything you can about subjects that most
people couldn't care less about. You have strong opinions with the power to influence others.
Some may think you are almost fanatical or obsessive about your beliefs or what you choose
to direct your thinking upon. Just remember to keep an open mind to all points of view. With
that attitude you will learn even more about the things you study. Lastly, you may have a
highly geared nervous system which can cause impatience and irritability. You must learn
when you need to give your mind a rest.
Moon discordant to Mars (power = 7.27 and this aspect is discordant = -9.09)
With all your emotional energy your physical body may be broken down faster than it can be
repaired. You need to learn how to slow down and not try to do everything all at once. You are
temperamental, irritable and impatient and can be very difficult to live with. You seemingly like
to go out of your to pick fights with people. You tend to respond with overt or subtle temper
tantrums if your desires and wishes are not granted. You need to get plenty of exercise in
order to work off all that excess energy which is only trying to find a constructive outlet. You
have an aggressive and feisty spirit and have no trouble standing up for your rights or the
rights of others. You need to learn self-restraint and self-control. You are extremely
competitive and have a strong need to outdo everyone else. You should learn how to
cooperate and compromise with others. You are a very hard worker with a great amount of
energy and courage. If you would learn that everyone makes mistakes and accept your own
mistakes calmly, then you will be able to use your energy extremely positively. At times you
have the habit of resting upon your reputation and relaxing. You need to learn how to control
your temper. You are apt to become angry when you are emotionally upset. Your need is to
learn to analyze the situation before allowing your emotions to overwhelm you. You may be
subject to accidents, cuts or burns because of your impatience in trying to get things done.
You are prone to carelessness and not looking before you leap. You resent any set of rules,
regulations or any other measures that tend to curb or restrain your actions or desires. If you
are in a position of authority, you must be careful that you are not too domineering or exacting
in your demand for instant obedience upon the part of your employees. You must learn to let
Page 17 of 45
go of desires for revenge and reciprocity. You may be extremely prodigal with your money and
may have trouble telling the truth.
Moon harmonizing with Ascendant (power = 6.96 and this aspect is harmonious = 6.96)
You need people around you for your emotional well-being. You understand and are attentive
to the needs of others. You openly reveal your emotions to those around you. You enjoy life
and people and are basically caring, sympathetic, understanding and sensitive.
Venus harmonizing with Pluto (power = 6.64 and this aspect is harmonious = 8.30)
You put everything you have into your emotions. Because you feel and love so deeply, so
passionately and wholeheartedly, others may find your intensity either extremely attractive or
very threatening. You are charismatic, with sex appeal and a certain amount of animal
magnetism which can't help but be noticed by the opposite sex. You have the ability to use
your attractiveness and charm to manipulate others, oftentimes without even realizing it. This
aspect gives you the opportunity to transform your values or to be the catalyst to help others
transform theirs. There is artistic ability along with a desire to create beauty, harmony and
comfort. You have an understanding and an empathy for the problems of others and you are
always looking for ways in which to help them or at least find the good that is in them.
Moon blending with Saturn (power = 6.41 and this aspect is discordant = -3.21)
You tend to be serious and emotionally reserved. You perhaps did not have a happy early
upbringing where you were able to play a lot or express yourself in a spontaneous, childlike
manner. You are cautious about letting others get close to you and you sometimes feel a need
to withdraw from people altogether. You feel isolated and alone, even when you are with other
people. You have learned to appreciate your own company and to keep yourself busily
occupied with solitary activities in order to preserve your emotional well-being. You are an
ambitious person who wants to find some area of life to excel in. You take your responsibilities
very seriously and you work long and hard to finish what you have started. You have
tremendous organizational skills. You want some kind of position of control or authority and
that is what drives you. Perhaps this is your defense mechanism to show the world that you
are worthy of love and respect, the kind of love and respect that was perhaps missing as you
were growing up. Your emotions are inhibited by Saturn's cold, restrictive influence, so you
are somewhat shy with a tendency toward gloomy, melancholy and depressive moods. And
as thoughts are things, this attitude brings you just what you are thinking. You easily doubt
your own abilities and that is why you are striving so hard to prove something. Your constant
need for reassurance from others can drive friends and loved ones away. You must learn to
handle your fears and insecurities so that you do not make your situation worse. You are
extremely sensitive and worry much too much about what others think of you. You lack
self-esteem. On the positive side, though, this aspect helps to steady the emotional nature, it
deepens the mind and it gives greater power for concentration. You need to cultivate an
optimistic frame of mind. Strive to open yourself to others and to go out of your way to help
them instead of worrying about just your own little petty concerns.
Mars harmonizing with Neptune (power = 4.82 and this aspect is harmonious = 3.61)
You enjoy and have a flair for coming up with creative solutions to problems by using your
powers of visualization and imagination. You are a fairly passive person who would rather
Page 18 of 45
avoid conflict and confrontation in favor of more peaceful or subtle methods of resolving
problems. You like to work with others for some cause that will benefit those around you who
are less fortunate than you. In your mind serving them is one of the best ways to reach for
God. And you are correct in that notion. You have a flair for the dramatic, the musical, the
artistic and the poetic. Channeling your energies into these sorts of activities helps keep you
in a positive frame of mind and emotion. It also helps you keep control of your imagination so
your thoughts and ideas don't run away with you. You have the ability to bring your dreams
into reality, for you tend to be a practical idealist. You have a mystical side to you and you
may be attracted to the occult. There is a personal magnetism about you that attracts others,
especially those in need. You have the ability to be patient and lovingly assertive. Because of
your kindnesses to others in past lives, you have some degree of spiritual protection from
hidden enemies who might seek to undo you. You have learned that patience will bring you
whatever you desire and to this end you will work hard. You are compassionate towards
people and animals and you are usually a soft touch for any hard-luck story. The sea has a
rejuvenating effect on you and you would probably benefit from its vibrations.
Sun discordant to Mars (power = 4.65 and this aspect is discordant = -5.82)
You are more concerned with your own self-preservation than with the needs or interests of
others. You have a fighting spirit and are in competition with those around you. You need to
learn how to cooperate and to compromise. You enjoy picking little fights and going
head-to-head with others over almost any matter, no matter how trivial. Your desires get the
better of you because you lack self-control. You are selfish at times, you often feel that you
need to fight to get what you want, and you tend to have a "me-first" attitude that angers or
irritates others. You have a need to be right, even when you aren't. You have difficulty in
forgiving others and in saying you are sorry. You have a great deal of energy and vitality but
you must be careful that you do not dissipate it in unproductive or sensual living. You are
hasty, impatient and sometimes reckless. You have a need to think before you act. You do not
like any form of restraint and you rebel against taking orders. You have trouble with superiors
because of this and this can affect your career. You have a fiery temper and a tendency
towards accidents and fevers. You need to be careful of overexertion as you tend to do things
until you simply burn out. You become frustrated easily and you throw fits if you do not get
your way. Your impulsive actions can lead you into many difficulties, including perhaps
becoming a compulsive gambler. You become frustrated easily and this triggers impatience
and anger, which you tend to take out on the ones closest to you.
If you can learn how to properly channel all that drive and energy, then there is no limit to your
accomplishments and success. But this will take self-discipline, self-control, restraint,
patience, persistence and willpower. You need to realize that your own personal desires may
not be in line with your Spirit's desires and that is what is causing all the stress you feel inside.
Seek your Higher Self and you can then turn a lot of these negatives into positives. The
obstacles that occur concerning the obtaining of your personal desires are to help you remain
in agreement with your Spirit's desires. You have the necessary confidence and courage
which are of considerable help to you in flowing with the obstacles that this aspect brings into
your life. You simply need to develop more self-control.
Mars discordant to Saturn (power = 4.14 and this aspect is discordant = -7.24)
Energetic drives collide with conservatism and caution. This aspect in its worst expression
tends to make you cruel, cold and unfeeling. You keep anger and resentment within you and
Page 19 of 45
you do not forget nor forgive a wrong. Revenge is on your mind and you want to pay back
those people who have gotten in your way, either in reality or simply just in your mind. But this
aspect can also give a very determined and ambitious nature. It can make a person
persevere, endure, struggle and work hard, in spite of difficulties and discouragement. In its
usual influence it tends to make you run hot and cold or it continually puts roadblocks and
obstacles in your way to test you and see what you are made of. It is not a pleasant aspect,
yet it can give you the drive and determination to succeed in spite of all the setbacks and
frustrations. It can be a real character-builder if you can stand the pressure.
By concentrating on a single, clearly defined goal, you can accomplish much, but you often
feel that the journey is quite difficult and that you must struggle on alone with all the
responsibility and obligation on your shoulders. Now you know how Atlas must have felt
carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. You are capable of great self-control, great
self-denial and great self-discipline. You can be very rough on yourself by expecting far too
much out of yourself. You are sometimes held back by your own fear and the uncertainty of
your own abilities. Self-confidence sometimes wanes as the work goes on without noticeable
progress. You meet great resistance at times when you try to take the initiative or when you
try to be assertive. An inferiority complex may emerge out of accumulated difficulties. This
leads to anger and frustration and if you do not have some positive way of releasing this
stress, you will quite nearly explode. Of course the people whom you take all this out on are
those you are closest to. This creates a great deal of friction and animosity. For this reason
you many times work better in solitude. This aspect tends to cause delays, frustrations,
disruptions and obstacles to all that you try to do. It certainly will test your patience.
You need to determine what your responsibilities are and when you can safely pursue your
own desires while still meeting and living up to the duties you are committed to. If you follow
your own desires, then you will be looked upon as irresponsible and selfish. And if you never
allow yourself to pursue your own desires, then you may tear yourself apart. The trick is to find
the right balance between these areas. Part of the problem lies in that you often feel
frustrated, because you assume you have no choice in doing anything you enjoy. This causes
the anger to build up, making you sarcastic, bitter and resentful. Make a list of your true
responsibilities and fulfill them. Then, make a list of what you would like to do for fun and
relaxation. By compromising, you can release your overactive sense of responsibility. You are
a skilled worker because of your organizing ability and your attentiveness to detail. You take
pride in your work and you simply want to do a good job.
I will add to this that the challenge with this aspect is to see the beauty and goodness in the
world that surrounds you. Because of all your troubles you tend to see life as cruel and
hateful, with everyone pitted against everyone else. Life seems incredibly hard with this
perspective. What you must try to do is to see the good within the world's disharmony. You
need love and support yet these may be lacking. To get love you first have to give love and it
is not particularly easy for you to open your emotions to others. You have been hurt in the
past and you do not like emotional pain. So it takes you a while to open up to people. Because
of your nature, then, you appear serious, cold and aloof to others. They have no idea of what
is going on inside you.
As alluded to earlier, you tend to hold in your anger. If you do not learn to release your
frustrations, this anger can and will erupt uncontrollably. You need to remember that bottling
anger up inside you is one of the primary causes of gall and kidney stones. Other thoughts —
Page 20 of 45
learn to control your passionate desires because unruly desires can get you in a lot of trouble
if left unchecked. Also, there will be times when you may not follow through on projects that
you have initiated because you lack a sense of sustained purpose. There can also be a
certain callousness with this aspect such that you may become selfish and unwilling to go out
of your way for others unless there is some gain in it for you.
Sun discordant to Saturn (power = 3.79 and this aspect is discordant = -5.69)
You tend to be selfish, cold, unfeeling and uncaring, worried, fearful and insecure. You may
have a ruthless ambition that lets nothing stand in the way of its goals. You have a cautious,
careful, realistic attitude toward life and are highly responsible and disciplined with regard to
your obligations and duties. You tend to work and struggle more than you need to, and to take
yourself too seriously. You need to lighten up. You prefer the patterns and activities that you
are already used to rather than new experiences. You struggle with feelings of personal
inadequacy, inhibitions, self-doubt and loneliness. Everything you try to accomplish has to be
worked at very hard and perhaps for a very long time. You are subject to delays and
frustrations at every turn, it seems. You may have difficulties with your father or those in
authority. This is not an easy aspect, but it does give great persistence, endurance, patience
and staying power. You need to learn how to give yourself to others with no thought of reward
for yourself. Share your love and possessions and open yourself up to the needs and
concerns of others. You have been much too selfish and self-absorbed in previous lives and
now you must learn to share with others. You are being asked to compromise and cooperate
with others in order to remove any tendency towards self-interest.
Another challenge for you is to overcome your self-criticalness. You have a very high standard
of what constitutes achievement and perfection and you expect yourself and others to live up
to it. But you go overboard with your attitude. First, it is unrealistic. Second, it is impossible to
reach. This causes you a great deal of stress and frustration. Then, you feel that others are
working against your achieving this perfection, when in reality, it is your Spirit which is
attracting inefficiency around you in order to force you to stop judging yourself and others too
harshly and critically. Again, the message is for you to lighten up.
Mercury harmonizing with Uranus (power = 2.98 and this aspect is harmonious = 2.98)
You possess lightning-quick physical and mental responses to stimuli of all kinds. You have
an electric nature about you that won't let you sit still. You love being involved with several
projects at the same time because you do not like to be bored. You are open-minded,
independent, original, eccentric, creative, unusual, a bit of a genius and a free-thinker. New
ideas and concepts are important to you and you encourage everyone you come into contact
with to experiment and try new things. You are intuitive and many insights come from your
Higher Self. You like an unstructured environment free from rules and regulations where you
can respond to the needs of the moment. Routine, repetitive work makes you nuts. Your mind
functions in an intuitive, nonlinear fashion and sudden insights and flashes of inspiration often
come to you "out of the blue". You hate being told what to do and how to do it. You need to
discover your own truths and experience things for yourself first-hand. You are better suited to
a fast-paced atmosphere where things happen and change all the time. You love science and
new technology and you like keeping up with all the state-of-the-art inventions, products and
ideas. You have an interest in occult subjects such as astrology. You have a talent for writing,
speaking and communicating your ideas to others and are always ready to listen to new and
unusual thoughts and concepts.
Page 21 of 45
Moon harmonizing with Jupiter (power = 1.93 and this aspect is harmonious = 2.89)
You are cheerful, forgiving, optimistic, easy-going, tolerant and kind. You love to make other
people comfortable and happy, but sometimes you overdo your generosity. You have such a
firm faith that everything you do will turn out all right no matter what you do, that you
sometimes get lazy and apathetic. There are times when you simply take the easy way out of
things, especially emotionally. You may have the tendency to overindulge yourself with rich
and sweet food, thereby gaining weight, especially in later years. You may overeat. This
aspect brings good character, an expansive mind, idealism, honor, luck and financial
assistance from family and others. You have a strong respect for honesty in others and in
yourself. You are upright, moral and have a well-defined sense of ethics. You are devotional
and philosophical, though not necessarily religious. You are self-confident and emotionally
secure. You have the ability to laugh at yourself and see the humor even in the worst of
situations. You want to help people move forward in life and are willing to give that help,
whether it be emotional, financial or spiritual. The biggest caution here is simply watch that
you do not become lazy or self-indulgent. People love you for your fine character.
Mercury harmonizing with Venus (power = 1.77 and this aspect is harmonious = 2.21)
You can appreciate the finer, more aesthetic things of life because you have a well-developed
sense of form, proportion, design and beauty. With such skills you could perhaps be
successful as an artist, sculptor, fashion designer, craftsmen, interior decorator, creative writer
or jewelry designer. This aspect usually gives talent in the arts, whether it be writing, poetry,
speaking or musical ability. You may possess a lovely singing voice. You have the ability to
bring harmony to situations through your expert use of the spoken word. The way you think
and speak tends to bring peace in difficult situations. You are a natural arbiter and diplomat.
You may have success in sales of artistic or other beautiful objects. You have a natural eye
for color and an ear for music. Your sense of humor, tact, and personal charm are of great
benefit to you in any work with people on a one-to-one level. Your emotions are tied to your
mental processes and it may be hard for you to express your feelings without intellectualizing
or rationalizing them. If you do not have artistic talent yourself, then you certainly have a fine
appreciation of art, in all its many forms. You are a natural at settling arguments and soothing
hurt feelings.
Sun harmonizing with Ascendant (power = 1.34 and this aspect is harmonious = 1.34)
You are sociable and energetic, self-confident and candid. You enjoy performing for others.
This aspect aids your health and well-being.

SIGN POSITIONS OF PLANETS
Sun in Capricorn
Capricorns have the desire to climb whatever mountains are necessary and to stand on their
own two feet in order to work out their ambitions and their salvation. They are conservative,
organized, methodical, traditional, responsible, honest, efficient, patient, practical,
authoritative, disciplined, serious and goal-oriented. On the negative side they can be worried,
pessimistic, retaliatory, suspicious, stubborn and intolerant. They are happiest in careers
calling for organizing ability, integrity and perseverance. They have a fear of failure.
Their quiet exterior makes Capricorns appear to be loners. They build a wall of reserve around
them in order to protect themselves from the ill winds of the world around them. Nothing gets
in the way of their plans and ambitions. They strive for security by holding fast to duty and
responsibility. Work is very important to them and they do not take it lightly. Many Capricorns
have an inferiority complex and this sometimes is what drives them so hard to succeed. They
want to look good in front of the world.
Capricorns like to plan their every move, weighing all the pros and cons of any issue in
advance. They are dependable, particularly in a crisis. When asked, they give sound, practical
advice. They are, as a rule, not aggressive people, and only express hostility as a defense
when attacked.
At times Capricorns can be very sensitive to hurts and feel alone as if no one understands
them. A negative Capricorn will seek retribution for wrongs done him. Capricorns need people,
but they have a tendency to isolate themselves from people due to their reserve and fear of
being hurt. They can be very loyal to close friends and people they care about. Respect and
recognition is important to them. Encouragement and praise are essential for motivating a
Capricorn.
A fear of being without material things makes it mandatory that Capricorns have a regular
income. Their attainments in life are accomplished through steady progress rather than
through speculation or get-rich-quick schemes. They have strong self-discipline and nothing
turns them from their course if their mind is made up. They will give up many pleasures in
order to reach their goals. Hard work invigorates them. Capricorns are thrifty and like to collect
things. They abhor waste. This includes wasting a lot of talk in idle chatter. Capricorns speak
when they have something to say.
Capricorns can be creative but they must at times learn to overcome their own self-doubts and
lack of confidence. Pessimism in their own abilities can hold them back. They must learn to
believe in themselves and become optimistic. There is no mountain they cannot climb if that is
what they desire to do.
Capricorns have a lot of patience, which is good, because many of their plans meet with
delays, setbacks and obstacles. This teaches them obedience, which is thus helping them to
strive for spiritual attainment rather than material attainment. For them, work is therapeutic
and is probably the best medicine for whatever ails them, except overwork, which they are
prone to do. It is difficult for a Capricorn to really relax. They are happiest when busy, even in
their spare time.
Page 23 of 45
Capricorns are thoughtful, self-contained people. Lacking, perhaps, some of the personal
magnetism of some of the other zodiac signs, they are nevertheless quite tactful,
compassionate and warmhearted. Their own personal sufferings help them identify with the
sufferings of others. In love, Capricorns are as romantic and emotional as anyone else, but
usually they feel inhibited in expressing their emotions. They are cautious in making a total
commitment until they know that the traits and lifestyle of the possible partner are compatible
with theirs. Once married, they seldom divorce because they feel that any situation can be
worked out, if only worked at hard enough.
Moon in Cancer
You very easily respond to the emotional environment in which you are placed. You soak up
feelings like a sponge. Perhaps this is why you so easily become moody, irritable and
inconstant in thought and feeling. Learning to control your own moods may be very difficult,
yet necessary, for you. Your greatest need is to nurture and mother someone or ones. You
often appear irrational to others because you can't always explain the reason or source of
your feelings. Anyone who lives with you must accept your ups and downs and appreciate
your need for times of withdrawal. You are also very sympathetic and understand the
unspoken feelings and needs of others. You take slights very personally and though you may
forgive a mistake by a friend or loved one, you never forget it. Security is very important to you
and you look for it in your home and family life. Your senses and emotions are quite strong
and it would be wise for you to listen to your intuitive side as you can be quite psychic. You
are very tenacious and you do not give up or let go of things or people easily. Your mother
is/was a strong influence for good or ill in your life. You are basically an introvert, but will do
whatever it takes to protect and defend your family or loved ones. You tend to be a pack-rat
because everything has an emotional memory behind it and you find security in all those
memories. Nothing or no one is ever gone if they leave their memory behind. Thus, you can
become quite possessive. You have the memory of an elephant, but you must learn to forgive
and forget past hurts.
Mercury in Sagittarius
You possess idealism, vision, and foresight, and your mind is often occupied with big ideas,
plans, and goals for the future. You are interested in what is possible and what is on the
horizon, rather than what has already been done. Subjects like philosophy, religion, politics, or
education interest you, and you are more concerned with theories, abstractions and concepts
than with specific applications. You are not inclined to focus on any one practical, concrete
area. You don't particularly like details and may find it difficult to concentrate long enough to
carry your ideas through to completion. You seek mental freedom, yet your thoughts are
usually along traditional lines. Having a gambling instinct, you may enjoy gambling,
speculative enterprises and new ventures. You are forward, blunt and direct in speech and
you always speak your mind. People who know you know that you don't beat around the bush.
You are apt to say the first thing that pops into your head. Thus, you have to learn to control
your tongue, develop tact, and to think before speaking. Business, advertising, and promotion
might be good career areas for you. You have a keen mind and are impulsive and versatile.
You have a tendency to study several similar subjects, to have more than one job and to have
several projects going all at the same time. You tend to want to keep on the move, traveling,
in order to gain experience, knowledge and wisdom.
Page 24 of 45
Venus in Aquarius
Your affections are expressed in an open, unconventional and rather detached way.
Socializing, bringing people together and having many friends and acquaintances very much
appeal to you. Because you value friendship so highly, you may be more comfortable being a
friend than a lover. One thing's for sure — you highly dislike possessive, clingy relationships.
You want to be free to do whatever you want with whomever you like. You want an intellectual
or spiritual connection with your partner and this may even be the preferred substitute over a
very intimate or emotional bonding. You need a partner who will give you plenty of freedom,
allowing you to be your own person, and not be too demanding emotionally. You are
charming, happy and original, but also, cool, calm and detached. This detachment is
beneficial because you, as a rule, are never possessive of people or things. The feelings you
have tend to be filtered through your mind and intellectualized. You need to learn warmth and
understanding.
Mars in Aries
You are aggressive, pioneering, adventurous, and always on the outlook to start new projects.
You hate restraint and don't like to be told to do something or how to do it. You want to lead,
not follow. At times you can be headstrong, impulsive, and impatient. Waiting is not something
that appeals to you. You go after what you want with great zeal and you do not take "no" for
an answer. You love competition and anything that allows you to test or prove yourself.
Cooperation is not your strong suit and you can be very self-willed, self-absorbed, and selfish
at times. The "me-first" attitude is strong in you. You are self-reliant and hate depending or
relying on others. You need to be your own person and do things your way, even if it might not
be the best way. Your best talent is in getting things off the ground quickly. If initial success
does not come quickly, you may get tired of that project and move to the next. Sustaining is
not your strong side. Long term efforts are not as appealing to you as quick, short term affairs
that you can finish with quickly so you can start something else. Energy and enthusiasm are
your strong side. Self-control is important for you to learn so you don't burn out. Physical
activity and keeping in shape appeals to you. You may be prone to accidents due to haste.
You need to learn to stick to a project until it is finished before rushing off on a new endeavor.
You must learn to control your temper and impulsiveness.
Jupiter in Virgo
You have a cautious, intellectual, analytical, and practical nature with an uncanny ability to sift
the wheat from the chaff and determine the essential from the non-essential and the truth from
the fiction. Your judgment is usually excellent and this helps bring success in business or work
in general. You have a strong desire to expand your field of knowledge and to develop
technical skill. On the negative side, you can at times be cynical, carping, critical, and
mistrusting of others. There can be times when you get lost in the details and lose the bigger
picture. There may be a dislike for exercise.
Saturn in Cancer
You are protective and persevering and you worry over loved ones. You can be moody, fearful
and insecure perhaps because you feel unloved, probably by one or both parents. These
feelings may bring on within you feelings of inadequacy toward your own ability to be a parent.
As a parent you may be very demanding and a strict disciplinarian to your children. Emotional
depression is something you need to conquer. Your unconscious fear of being hurt by others
Page 25 of 45
can cause you to withdraw from too close an emotional involvement with others. You are kind,
but may lack empathy. You can be so busy protecting yourself from hurts that you are unable
to see the hurts of others. There is a tendency for improper digestion due to the lack of certain
digestive juices in the stomach. It would be best if you did not drink liquids with your meals
(except milk, which is a food). There is a need to curb the appetite, as it can get you into
trouble. Land and property may give you emotional security and alleviate feelings of not
having something to fall back on.

HOUSE POSITIONS OF PLANETS
Page 27 of 45
This position may bring opportunity and expansion as well as success and honor to you in
your profession or in your community. Much of the reason is your congenial and generous
nature. You have a magnetic personality and people sense you will not let them down. Many
opportunities will arise which are of benefit to you and to society as a whole. There is a strong
sense of responsibility toward your career and toward personal achievement. You have the
ability to get others to believe in your expansion-oriented, long-range plans, dreams and
visions.

demanding and controlling with your own resources, monetary and otherwise.

CLOSING COMMENTS
The astrological interpretations in this report have been formulated with the assumption that
your birth date, time, and place are accurately given. This includes whether the birth time was
daylight savings time or standard time. Even a difference of one hour in birth time can
invalidate much of the interpretation given in this report, most notably 'HOUSE POSITIONS
OF PLANETS' and 'THE RISING SIGN OR ASCENDANT'.
By no means is this astrological analysis complete. Obviously, you are far more complex than
what a few pages of writing can depict. Hopefully, this short description of you and your inner
character will lead you on your way to really discovering who you are, what you can become,
and what you need to be doing in this life.

MY PHILOSOPHY OF ASTROLOGY
Astrology is the study of the effects of planetary forces upon man. It is not fortune telling. It is
one of the best methods for man to learn about who he is, where he came from and where he
is going. Astrology reveals CHARACTER and character is destiny. If man can change his
character, then man will have changed his destiny. The main uses of astrology are diagnosis
of health and sickness, character analysis, vocational guidance, analysis of children's
horoscopes so as to give parents a better idea as to how best to raise their children, and
analysis of the compatibilities between people.
Astrology does not show anything but tendencies. A man can rule his stars by exerting his will.
If a man decides to flow with the tide of life, then the tendencies indicated in the birth chart will
at some time have their effect. The one thing a birth chart does not show is the WILL of the
individual and how he may exert it. The matter of exercising free will is left entirely up to the
individual. The wise man rules his stars, the fool is ruled by them. Astrology forewarns and
being forewarned, a man is thus forearmed to better cope with the struggles of life.
Remember that good or so-called evil configurations are not the result of chance or luck, but
are the product of our own past acts — the horoscope shows what we have earned by our
past living and therefore what we are entitled to in the present life. What we lack in this life can
be gained in the future by applying ourselves to the task at hand. The stars IMPEL but do not
COMPEL. As Goethe, the great mystic, said, "From every power that holds the world in
chains, Man frees himself when self-control he gains."
The Law of Consequence ("Whatsoever a man sows, that he shall also reap") works in
harmony with the planets. The spirit is born into the physical world at that opportune time
when the Law and the planets may operate in harmony with each other. The birth of an Ego is
so timed by the Lords of Destiny, that the horoscope, which is the clock of destiny, registers
the kind of debts which the Ego has incurred in its previous lives, and the time when these
debts come to fruition, when the harvest from the seeds which have been sown must be
garnered. However, the law of destiny is not a blind law, for it may be modified to a certain
degree in proportion to the amount of will power awakened and utilized by the Ego. "For be
not deceived, God is not mocked. The mills of the gods grind exceedingly slow, but they grind
exceedingly fine."
There are three factors which bring to us the mystic message of the stars — the houses, the
signs and the planets. Each house represents a department of life, the signs are divisions of
the heavens which by their placement relative to the houses indicate our basic temperament
and attitude towards life, and the planets are the messengers of God which by their motion
through the houses and signs bring to us the opportunities for soul growth which we need for
our individual development. Think of the planets as representing the players in a play. The
signs, then, would describe the role that each player has and how he expresses his character,
Page 31 of 45
the houses represent the various settings of the play and the angular relationships between
the planets, the aspects, represent the plot of the play. Each planet has a characteristic
energy. That energy can be expressed either positively or negatively. The way that energy is
expressed is determined by the aspects of the other planets to that particular planet.
The horoscope shows tendencies only. It is a matter for you to determine how any planetary
position will work itself out. That will be determined by the use you make of your own
WILLPOWER.

THE RISING SIGN OR ASCENDANT
The sign that is on the eastern horizon at the moment of birth is called the Rising Sign or the
Ascendant. The Ascendant marks the difference in temperament, disposition, physical
appearance and personality of individuals. It is the lens through which everything else in the
chart is focused or looked through, thus coloring the way we look at everything. People see us
through our rising sign and we see the world through our rising sign.
PLANETARY ASPECTS
If the planets represent energies and cosmic forces that manifest in different ways, then the
planetary aspects show how these energies and forces tend to act and react, one with
another, if the will of the person is not brought into play to change them. It is the spiritual task
of each person to use the positive energies in such ways so as to change the negative
energies into positive energies. Negative energies are simply energies that are either
misdirected, misapplied, or applied in too great a quantity. One of our purposes in life is to
transform the negative energies into positive ones through the use of our Will.
Moon blending with Jupiter (power = 12.75 and this aspect is harmonious = 6.38)
You are tolerant, forgiving and always ready to overlook people's mistakes and give them a
second chance. You expect the best from others and draw the best that is in them from them.
You have a knack for making others comfortable and happy. You are well-liked because of
your emotional generosity and you have many friends which attest to that. This aspect can
bring financial well-being. You have the ability to laugh at yourself and see the humor even in
the worst of circumstances. You are optimistic and have great faith in the future and in your
fellow man. You are sympathetic, compassionate and sensitive to the needs and feelings of
others. You are a good listener and you have the ability to feel what others feel because you
can put yourself in their shoes. You are non-judgmental and people trust you and your advice.
You enjoy having a good time and there are moments when you may forget that there is a
need to work also. You need to take care that you don't overdo physically or emotionally. You
Page 33 of 45
have the tendency to overeat if your emotions are out of balance. You use food to give you
security and if you do not learn to control yourself and your insecurities, then this will cause
you bigger problems down the road.
Mercury discordant to Mars (power = 10.92 and this aspect is discordant = -13.65)
You have the capacity to be very clever and cunning, trying to take advantage of anyone if
you get the chance. Your mind is alert, quick and always ready for an argument. Your speech
is sometimes too hasty and you lack tact. Your tongue is a sword you use to lash out at other
people when they have upset you or done something you did not like. You have a temper that
can explode into swearing, name-calling and general ranting and raving. You are a convincing
and forceful speaker and you have a way of bringing people over to your way of thinking, but
you are not especially receptive to the ideas and opinions of others. You need to better learn
how to rationally and logically control your desires. Your mental energy should be directed into
creative channels instead of wasted in conflicts with others. You are irritable and fault-finding
at times and this turns friends and family against you. You are argumentative and rather
critical and aggressive in discussions and you like turning any conversation into a debate or
verbal war. Try to choose an occupation where this talent is a plus and not a minus. Perhaps
you could be a spokesman for a righteous cause, a lawyer vigorously defending a client, an
analyst or critic. You love to read and you may have literary talent.
You are high-strung and have a lot of nervous energy, thus you find it hard to sit still for very
long. You love working on several projects at the same time because it keeps you from getting
bored, but you may have difficulty finishing the things you have started. You need to take time
out occasionally and give your mind a break so that it does not become overstrained. Inner
tension and hostility find their outlet in angry outbursts, sometimes making little sense to
listeners. Your anger destroys your ability to think clearly and so you are unable to logically
present the reasons for your anger. Since your nerves are also stretched taut, you must be
careful or you may suffer from some type of nervous disorder, such as shingles or an ulcer.
Anger is very detrimental to the heart, also. You have a tendency to overwork, which is very
hard on both your physical body and your nerves. Your approach to life can be too much
hustle and bustle, with a lot of running around and nothing being accomplished. Slow down
once in a while and chill out.
Sun blending with Neptune (power = 8.87 and this aspect is neutral)
You are sensitive and imaginative and are attracted to artistic and creative pursuits, to
mysticism, to photography or to drama and the theater. You are impressionable and receptive
and you need to watch the people, environments and situations with which you associate as
you tend to soak up the vibrations surrounding you, for good or ill. The power of suggestion
works more easily with you, because of this aspect, than it does for others. There may be
strange and mysterious things that happen to you that seemingly defy the rational mind. You
have a lot of dreams, visions and yearnings, but may not possess the concentrated will and
stamina to do anything with them or to bring them into reality. You are gentle, helpful,
sympathetic and compassionate toward others, but you can be taken advantage of by
someone with a good sob story. You like to help people in need, but you need to be
discriminating about it. You have a need to express yourself creatively, most likely through the
arts or through music. You do not like the harsher side of life and you try to avoid facing
difficulties whenever you can. This tendency to hide may lead to turning to drugs or alcohol if
you do not exercise the appropriate amount of self-control. Running away will not help solve
Page 34 of 45
any troubles you have. You are prone to procrastination. There are times when you can be
completely self-deluded over what is going on around you. You may experience delusions of
grandeur because there are moments when you cannot separate truth from fiction or reality
from fantasy. You are emotional, sentimental, romantic and psychically attuned. Avoid any
negative psychic practices such as Ouija boards, séances, hypnotism and mediums. You
must not allow your tendency to daydream interfere with the responsibilities you have in life.
People find it somewhat hard to understand you, but this makes sense seeing as you do not
really understand yourself.
Sun discordant to Ascendant (power = 6.86 and this aspect is discordant = -6.86)
You are unusually sociable and you need people around you. You may have an internal
conflict as to what to pursue in life.
Mercury harmonizing with Venus (power = 5.73 and this aspect is harmonious = 7.16)
You can appreciate the finer, more aesthetic things of life because you have a well-developed
sense of form, proportion, design and beauty. With such skills you could perhaps be
successful as an artist, sculptor, fashion designer, craftsmen, interior decorator, creative writer
or jewelry designer. This aspect usually gives talent in the arts, whether it be writing, poetry,
speaking or musical ability. You may possess a lovely singing voice. You have the ability to
bring harmony to situations through your expert use of the spoken word. The way you think
and speak tends to bring peace in difficult situations. You are a natural arbiter and diplomat.
You may have success in sales of artistic or other beautiful objects. You have a natural eye
for color and an ear for music. Your sense of humor, tact, and personal charm are of great
benefit to you in any work with people on a one-to-one level. Your emotions are tied to your
mental processes and it may be hard for you to express your feelings without intellectualizing
or rationalizing them. If you do not have artistic talent yourself, then you certainly have a fine
appreciation of art, in all its many forms. You are a natural at settling arguments and soothing
hurt feelings.
Sun harmonizing with Pluto (power = 5.54 and this aspect is harmonious = 5.54)
You are very confident and have great faith and trust in your own abilities. You believe that
you can survive anything that life throws your way. You expect to conquer any obstacle,
problem or bad habit that you may have. Your willpower is very strong and you have the
necessary self-control and self-discipline to go with it that practically guarantees success in
life. You have tremendous inner resources, strength and stamina. You use all these potent
talents to help reform the things around you that need changing. You stand up for your rights
as well as for the rights of others. You have leadership qualities and executive skills. People
look to you to show them the way. You are very intense and pursue your goals with complete
dedication and singleness of purpose, almost to the point of compulsion or fanaticism. You
find it difficult to respect people who are weak-willed or those who avoid confronting their lives
and problems head-on. You feel in charge of your own destiny and you believe that is the way
it should be. You have the intuitive perception to see right through things and get to the heart
of the matter. You recognize your need to dissolve negative attitudes and thought patterns
and you go about this in the same way that you go about everything else — with intensity,
focus and concentration. You are a winner and people instinctively feel this when around you.
Page 35 of 45
Moon discordant to Pluto (power = 5.50 and this aspect is discordant = -5.50)
You have intense desires, emotions and feelings and your personal relationships are deeply
emotional, passionate, and often stormy and painful as well. You have a magnetic personality
that draws people to you. Your relationships with others tend to be obsessive and compulsive.
There is much jealousy and possessiveness and each of you tries to control the other in as
many different ways as possible. You are manipulative and not just in subtle ways. You resort
to guilt, innuendo and outright false accusations in order to keep your hold on others. Your
feelings can be so compelling at times that you do things that are not at all rational. You
undergo periodic upheaval where you must break all ties to people and things and begin
everything new from the start. You are likely to be very set in your ways, opinionated and
inflexible. You have difficulty listening to the ideas and suggestions of others. You feel a need
to be right all the time. You find it hard to forgive and forget. You need to develop an
awareness so that you see others as they really are and not as you wish them to be. Your
emotions are especially strong and difficult for you to control. You may become obsessed over
security or money. Your challenge here is to learn how to control the emotional turmoil that is
inside you. It is difficult for you to totally trust those you love, because you fear you will
eventually be rejected due to your supposed unworthiness. Because of this, you are
constantly tested in your relationships in order to bring about an inner growth. These lessons
are designed to teach you to trust those you love and care for.
Mars harmonizing with Uranus (power = 4.67 and this aspect is harmonious = 3.50)
You are dynamic, decisive, quick, impulsive, inventive and probably mechanically adept. You
respond immediately to almost every situation, you prefer spontaneity rather than routine and
you enjoy vigorous physical activities that require fast reflexes and a good sense of rhythm
and timing. You have an abundance of nervous energy and vitality, along with a restless
desire to see reform, progress and change. The status quo does not interest you much and
you get bored easier than most. It is sometimes difficult for you to relax as you prefer being on
the go. You are independent and do not like to feel tied down. Taking the lead on new projects
and inspiring others to your cause are characteristics you possess. You find advice from
others hard to follow as you feel the need to experience everything for yourself — right or
wrong, good or bad. You have done reasonably well in past lives in balancing your
impulsiveness and your anger. Keep up the good work here and now. You have good intuition
and if you will only learn to listen to it more, then you would be better off. You like to push the
envelope and rebel, but you also know when it is in your best interests to stop pushing and
just go along. Although you like reform, you will not accept it at all costs. You have a personal
magnetism and can become a leader, not for power, but because your foresight allows you to
see how things will work themselves out. Unusual experiences tend to happen to you, but you
take them all in stride because you enjoy a good challenge.
Jupiter discordant to Pluto (power = 3.25 and this aspect is discordant = -1.63)
You may need to learn to better respect other people's opinions, beliefs and viewpoints.
Others at times think you are too full of yourself. Practicing a bit more humility would draw
people closer to you. You have executive ability and know how to get things done. It's just that
you may not be sensitive enough to other people's needs or enough aware of what you are
asking them to do. It is important to you to believe that you are always right. This agitates
others because no one can be right all the time, and that is the impression they have of you —
that you think you are always right. Be open-minded regarding the suggestions and ideas of
others. Admit that you may not know it all and that there is room for further discovery. Be
Page 36 of 45
tolerant, avoid fanatical ideas and expression, and help those around you by using your power
and leadership abilities to serve others rather than for simply gratifying your ego.
Saturn harmonizing with Uranus (power = 3.02 and this aspect is harmonious = 1.51)
Difficult tasks can be completed because of your persistence, endurance, patience and hard
work. You combine the best qualities of idealism and practicality. The difficulties you
experience in life give you a chance to show your ability to persevere when the going gets
tough. Much learning and soul growth can come from these situations. Your ambitions take
you on unique, unusual and perhaps even eccentric paths. Unusual people come into your
environment to help you experience the things you need to experience to grow and mature.
You have the ability to balance your need for personal freedom and your sense of
responsibility. With this balance you can accomplish a great deal. Your organizational ability
and your ability to work with details help you to succeed and to come through for others. You
perhaps need to learn how to relax, though, as your ability to endure extra tension may be too
much for your physical body or your nervous system to withstand.
Moon harmonizing with Ascendant (power = 2.81 and this aspect is harmonious = 2.81)
You need people around you for your emotional well-being. You understand and are attentive
to the needs of others. You openly reveal your emotions to those around you. You enjoy life
and people and are basically caring, sympathetic, understanding and sensitive.
Mars harmonizing with Saturn (power = 2.34 and this aspect is harmonious = 0.59)
You possess self-control, endurance, perseverance, patience, organizing ability and the
willingness to work hard to achieve your objectives. You have staying power and you don't wilt
under pressure. You know that time is required in order to build anything lasting and once you
make a commitment, you don't stop, even if it looks like it will take forever. The goals you have
tend to be practical and realistic and you pursue them step-by-step in a well-planned, orderly
way. You have executive ability and your ambitions are high. You like to work in solitude and
you feel that your best work is done when you are alone. You have common sense and good
judgment, yet you may need to remind yourself at times that you must not give up if it takes
you longer to accomplish your projects than it does other people. You are not necessarily fast,
but you are thorough. Whatever you build, you build for permanence. If you suffer from
holding in your anger, then you must learn to release it, else it may cause bitterness and
resentment. Learn to express your reasons for feeling angry to the individuals involved. You
have a positive blend of boldness and caution most of the time. In previous lives you have
done a fine job of balancing your desires with a sense of responsibility. You tend to be rather
reserved, which can cause you difficulty in letting go to enjoy yourself in social situations. One
of your most positive traits is that you do not seek power, but merely want to do any job well.
Venus harmonizing with Ascendant (power = 1.38 and this aspect is harmonious = 1.73)
You are cheerful, fun-loving, charming, easy-going and have a pleasant personality. You love
beauty and harmony and you are happiest when things are going smoothly. You do not like
discord and you do not go out of your way to make waves. You may have artistic talent.

SIGN POSITIONS OF PLANETS
Sun in Aquarius
Aquarians tend to be friendly, original, intuitive, broadminded, nonconforming, different,
independent, freedom-loving, scientific, unusual, and helpful. They can also be impersonal,
unpredictable, tactless, rebellious, unconventional, stubborn, rigid, radical, bohemian and
eccentric. Aquarians like any work which calls for inventiveness and the detached application
of special rules or formulae.
Aquarians seek to share knowledge with others in order to bring about a better life for all.
Group activity is their customary mode of operation. Helping others so they can help
themselves appeals to an Aquarian.
Aquarians are friendly, yet detached, they have warmth, yet they seem distant. Although
appearing cold or aloof, they are not really indifferent to others. It's just that they are much
more concerned with humanity as a whole rather than any one particular individual. Since
Aquarians generally do not have large, pompous or stuffy egos, they rarely bother to exert
themselves to win approval or compliments.
Aquarians get excited about bringing new ideas and methods into old, traditional
environments. They are philosophical, visionary and idealistic. Feelings of friendship drive
them to try to improve the lot of everyone they can. Sometimes the people they want to help
don't understand these new ways and react negatively toward them. Sometimes Aquarians
are simply ahead of their time, although sometimes they are just cranks.
Aquarians have the determination and persistence to get ahead, but sometimes their energy
level is relatively low, which causes them to drop projects before they are completed. Their
minds are analytical and scientific and they have the ability to think things through to an
accurate conclusion. Although they generally have good powers of concentration and are able
to assimilate a lot of information, there are times when they are just plain absentminded.
Aquarians usually get along well with others. They are generally not gossips, nor are they
petty. They do not like arguments, unless they feel there is a need to defend a person, an
ideal or a principle. Since Aquarians are so willing to listen to the new and different, they have
little patience with those who refuse to hear new concepts.
Sometimes Aquarians rebel just for the pleasure of it. They have been known to deliberately
do things in an attempt to shock people. Most Aquarians prefer not to be bound by schedules
and regulations, but can easily adapt to them if they must. But don't expect them to always be
on time for things.
Aquarians dislike people who are possessive of them, since they are generally not possessive
of people or things themselves. They give others a lot of personal freedom and they expect
the same in return. Since they are not particularly concerned as to what other people think of
them, they often do not bother forming opinions about other people's behavior.
In love, Aquarians want an intellectual companion with whom they can communicate. They
can be hesitant about making a total commitment such as marriage, or any other form of
partnership, because of their desire for independence. However, when an Aquarian marries,
Page 38 of 45
the marriage is usually stable. They are loyal and faithful to their marriage partner, but are not
prone to excessive displays of affection, especially in public.
Moon in Virgo
You are very sensitive, cautious, and perhaps shy about showing others your feelings.
Though you may love and care for someone a great deal, you rarely express those feelings
openly and freely. You are perhaps more mental than emotional, at least outwardly. Very often
your love for someone will be expressed by trying to help them, doing something tangible to
benefit them, or serving them in some way. It may be difficult for you to receive warmth,
affection, or appreciation, for you often feel that you don't really deserve it or that "they don't
really mean it". You can therefore seem rather cool and aloof, much more so than you feel. At
times you can be so critical of others that you drive them and their love away. You need to
learn how to forgive yourself and others when you or they do not measure up to perfection.
This need of yours for perfection can be quite stifling to your own happiness. You tend to be
industrious, trustworthy, intuitive, reserved, practical and down-to-earth, especially where
emotions are concerned. Intelligence, usefulness and fastidiousness are important themes.
You have the ability to analyze people and situations and, then, find the quickest, most
efficient method of accomplishing whatever is needed. This may make you an excellent
housekeeper, nurse and/or manager. You must, however, watch your tendency to nit-pick or
to become overly fussy concerning small details. You like to serve others, but find it difficult to
understand the feelings of others. Your greatest need is to learn tolerance and to serve those
around you.
Mercury in Aquarius
Your thoughts tend to be unique, unusual, rapid and coming completely out of the blue,
eccentric, unconventional, scientific, weird and perhaps a bit ahead of their time. You are a
progressive and non-traditional thinker and are very open and receptive to new technologies
and breakthroughs and the latest discoveries in any field. You believe that humanity can
resolve their problems through creative intelligence using inventive minds and scientific
principles. You are a bit impatient with those who are conservative and unimaginative and
those who are afraid perhaps to think about and try new things and ideas. Keeping abreast of
the latest developments and technologies is fun for you. Reading science fiction helps give
you food for thought regarding radically new ways of looking at things. You have a strong
humanitarian impulse, an aptitude for organization and you enjoy being involved in
cooperative group efforts or businesses that are contemporary and innovative. You have a
versatile, disciplined, practical and original mind. You are intuitive and resourceful, with the
ability to correctly judge human character and penetrate the mask that others wear. You follow
your own convictions regardless of what others think of you and you have the ability to
express your ideas clearly so that others easily comprehend. On the negative side you can be
eccentric, bohemian, radical, revolutionary and stubborn.
Venus in Pisces
Your affections are expressed in sympathetic, compassionate, softhearted, romantic ways.
You unselfishly give of yourself to those you love or to those who need or ask for your help.
You may be a sucker for any sort of sob story and perhaps give too much at times which
make some overly dependent on you. You are very idealistic in matters of love and this
sometimes plays itself out whereby you become the martyr or the savior in relationships. You
Page 39 of 45
tend to be more compassionate than passionate and you become involved with others
because they need love or need to be "saved" and you want to help them rather than out of
mutual attraction or pleasure. You attract and are attracted to those who are sensitive,
imaginative, or musically or artistically inclined. Your desire is to find someone you can have a
deep, spiritual relationship with. You idealize love and have a very beautiful, romantic vision of
what love can be. At times you can simply be in love with love. You may be highly emotional,
perhaps overly so, sensitive, artistic, compassionate, gentle and psychic. You can be too
easy-going or submissive and allow yourself to be taken advantage of because you do not
want other people to feel let down and you don't like to make waves. You may have the
attitude that somehow you must suffer in love, and do so willingly.
Mars in Taurus
Once you set your mind on a goal, your dedication, determination, and commitment to it are
extraordinary. You never give up and find it difficult to change your mind or course in
mid-stream. Whatever you have set your sights on, you refuse to give up or let go of it. You
are loyal to a fault, unless someone betrays your trust, then all heck can break loose. You are
patient and usually slow to anger unless someone takes you too far. That is when you charge,
just like the bull Taurus stands for. You are reliable and consistent and can handle more of the
workload than most around you. You prefer a regular routine, with definite hours and clearly
defined responsibilities and tasks. You enjoy building and seeing the results of your hard
work. Things you can put your hands on appeal to you. You need to see practical results, not
theory and you are not satisfied with intangibles like just having a good time. At the same
time, you have a lazy, comfort-loving side and there is often a good deal of inertia for you to
overcome before you get going. Once you get a momentum going, your energy level is strong
and steady. Keeping things going is your strength, especially once someone else starts them.
Material well-being and security are large factors in determining what you do. Your stamina
and persistence is your great strength but it can also work against you; you can get caught in
a rut and refuse to seize new opportunities. You also tend to play it safe and to limit yourself in
that way. Change scares you. So does disease and pain. At times you have a decided
stubborn streak where no one can reach you. Possessiveness and jealously may cause
problems for you in relationships. Money and possessions are important to you for the feelings
of security they bring. Re-evaluate your values. Sharing should be cultivated. Your tongue
may be quite unruly at times.
Jupiter in Virgo
You have a cautious, intellectual, analytical, and practical nature with an uncanny ability to sift
the wheat from the chaff and determine the essential from the non-essential and the truth from
the fiction. Your judgment is usually excellent and this helps bring success in business or work
in general. You have a strong desire to expand your field of knowledge and to develop
technical skill. On the negative side, you can at times be cynical, carping, critical, and
mistrusting of others. There can be times when you get lost in the details and lose the bigger
picture. There may be a dislike for exercise.
Saturn in Cancer
You are protective and persevering and you worry over loved ones. You can be moody, fearful
and insecure perhaps because you feel unloved, probably by one or both parents. These
feelings may bring on within you feelings of inadequacy toward your own ability to be a parent.
Page 40 of 45
As a parent you may be very demanding and a strict disciplinarian to your children. Emotional
depression is something you need to conquer. Your unconscious fear of being hurt by others
can cause you to withdraw from too close an emotional involvement with others. You are kind,
but may lack empathy. You can be so busy protecting yourself from hurts that you are unable
to see the hurts of others. There is a tendency for improper digestion due to the lack of certain
digestive juices in the stomach. It would be best if you did not drink liquids with your meals
(except milk, which is a food). There is a need to curb the appetite, as it can get you into
trouble. Land and property may give you emotional security and alleviate feelings of not
having something to fall back on.

HOUSE POSITIONS OF PLANETS
Page 42 of 45
Jupiter in 5th house
Many opportunities for romance, dating, and activities involving children or teaching will
probably come your way. You are optimistic and enjoy passing on your knowledge to those
around you. You have creative ability which can bring success and happiness. There is a
strong desire to make significant contributions through your creative self-expression. Children,
which may be plentiful, can be a source of pleasure or over-indulgence. Guard against rash
gambling and speculation.
Page 43 of 45
strong desire nature will need to be overcome if regeneration is to occur.

CLOSING COMMENTS
The astrological interpretations in this report have been formulated with the assumption that
your birth date, time, and place are accurately given. This includes whether the birth time was
daylight savings time or standard time. Even a difference of one hour in birth time can
invalidate much of the interpretation given in this report, most notably 'HOUSE POSITIONS
OF PLANETS' and 'THE RISING SIGN OR ASCENDANT'.
By no means is this astrological analysis complete. Obviously, you are far more complex than
what a few pages of writing can depict. Hopefully, this short description of you and your inner
character will lead you on your way to really discovering who you are, what you can become,
and what you need to be doing in this life.
