Your Rising Sign

Ascendant in Sagittarius

Your ascendant or rising sign - on the horizon at the moment you were born - is Sagittarius, so on first meeting you seem optimistic, lucky, and out going. You may initially appear more like a Sagittarian than your birthday sign, since this is the image which you project. Appearances can be deceptive, since your inner nature may be slightly different, as long term friends realise. You do come across to others as honest, direct and enthusiastic, though sometimes your frankness is a touch too upfront for more thin-skinned companions. In general other people are naturally drawn to your bouncy personality, enthusiasm and positive outlook. You always look for the silver linings and blessings in even the trickiest of situations. Not always wonderfully practical, you do need to be more realistic at times even if it feels rather depressing.

The sign on the ascendant, which is the mask you wear for other people, is one of the major paths in life, which you must learn to walk more securely as you mature. Sagittarius is about having a lofty overview of life, having strong views about a fair society, being an armchair philosopher, or an expert on rather philosophical or even religious beliefs. It is also about foreign countries and different cultures, so you will want to travel further afield as you grow older. You will attract rather chatty, restless, slightly scattered partners, who rarely stand still. At home you want peace, bliss and a great deal of music, with water around to give you a sense of calm. In your job you are highly communicative, rather more meticulous about detail than your scatty manner suggests. Friends will be elegant, sociable, diplomatic. You are surprisingly sensible, even cautious about your personal finances.

The Planets - A Detailed Analysis

sun glyph The Sun: Your Self and Future

The Sun, which is your birthday sign, tells you about your essential nature - the core of your being which you must let live out if you are to find fulfilment. The Sun is your personality if you will let it blossom.

Sun in Libra

With the Sun in Libra, you are charming, sociable, rather conventional, ambitious, bubbling with initiative and very energetic, despite an undeserved reputation for laziness. Relationships are the mainstay of your life, both at work and at home. You need another half in life before you feel fulfilled, though as an air sign you can be emotionally quite detached. Although you are reputed to be the soul of tact, you can sometimes be argumentative, putting the other point of view just to keep the balance. Others sometimes find you dithery and indecisive because you like to think your way right round subjects, and often go back to doublecheck. Sometimes the opportunity has gone by the time you have made up your mind and often you can be too swayed by the opinions of others. But at the end of the day you can be extremely wise, your judgements are usually sound. Extravagance can be a problem, because you adore eating, drinking and living well.

Having a beautiful home, an extensive wardrobe and a good social life is important to your self esteem, and you tend to mix with elegant friends. Your fashion sense runs to the traditional but colourful. Light, bright and cheerful with a good cut is what you aim for. With Venus as your ruler, you can indulge your taste in rich and sweet food at times, but you also like to look good so you rarely let temptations get out of hand. Your career usually gets together after the age of 29, and you are well suited to a career where your people skills and diplomacy are brought to the fore. You can be surprisingly competitive, in a very charming way. You do appreciate hard working mates, who can sometimes be confrontational, even a little brash. Though your idea of heaven is a life where all relationships are friendly and there are no nasty rough edges. Occasionally you come across as superficial because you dislike digging too deep for answers. Balance is your ideal and something for which you strive but rarely attain , as you wobble from extreme to extreme trying to find the middle path.

Sun in the Ninth

The Sun is in the ninth house which rules the higher mind and long distance travel, so you have a wide ranging mind, a fascination for ideas, education or belief systems, and love to communicate your pet causes to all and sundry with a great deal of evangelical zeal. Honest, outgoing, confident, and highly communicative, you are not always practical or good at coping with the small detail of everyday living. You like to keep the broad picture in mind, the bird's eye view and leave practical trivia to others. More than most you need a philosophy by which to live your life, whether it is religious, spiritual, political or just an individually constructed set of guidelines. Quite the armchair philosopher, you think deeply about life, how societies work, and how different cultures operate, and are always swapping ideas with friends. You are also a wanderer at heart, keen to travel long distances to far-flung places and are fascinated by foreign countries. Teaching and studying are important to you. A spiritual outlook develops through life which may gradually draw you in later years away from the beliefs and teachings of your childhood.

Sun opposite Moon

Your Sun sits across your chart from your Moon so your energy levels tend to rise and fall a great deal. Mainly because you always want to go in two opposite directions at once. You rarely find that what you ought to do is what you want to do. And following your whims always gives you a guilty conscience. In childhood, you sensed your parents were two very different individuals, at times quite incompatible with each other. In trying to model yourself on both you find yourself feeling split in two. You have to rise above the conflicts of your childhood to find your own space then all that nervous tension will find a constructive outlet. Until the lack of balance inside you is resolved psychosomatic ailments, restlessness and at times nervousness are likely. Once you are on the right track you can handle complex, contradictory situations better than most.

Sun conjunct Mercury

Your Sun is close to Mercury so no-one could call you a sluggard with your sharp wits, agile mind and wonderful way with words. You communicate with ease, entertaining and teaching those around you. Your curiosity makes you a good student, able to concentrate and excel in speaking and writing. At times perhaps you can be a little too detached and rather critical. You have a tendency to analyse everything rather than just experience it. At other times you are mischievous, playing with words and being the trickster.

Sun square Mars

The Sun squares Mars so you can be too pushy, aggressive and hot tempered. For your own good you need to develop serenity and self control. Your tact tends to fly out of the window when you meet obstacles. The red mists descend and you over react. Sport is one way of soaking up your irritable energy, though you can be clumsy and accident prone, so care is required. Co operating with others is tricky because of your competitive instincts and relationships with bosses and authority figures tend to be noisy and unpredictable. You have a tendency towards clashes and emotional confrontation which can make you your own worst enemy.

Sun conjunct Uranus

The Sun close to Uranus means you are a truly individual personality, bright, sparkling, stimulating and challenging. You have a need for independence and freedom and a real love for truth. At times you can be tactless and quite shockingly blunt but you are often right because you get into the heart of the matter. A born rebel, you are defiant to the point of revolution, and can be quite a disturbing influence to have around. You need to allow yourself to be original and unconventional. You hate being tied down with the drudgery of routine, preferring instead to keep your options open. You may find yourself involved in causes that go against tradition - social or political. In childhood your father may well have been eccentric, or absent at times, or didn't relate to you well. So you learnt to go your own sweet way. At times you can be too abrasive and unco operative. Communication, computers, electronics, and everything high tech and new age and maybe even astrology are your strong points.

Sun conjunct Pluto

The Sun close to Pluto means that power is a tremendous issue in your life. Often you feel pushed around by others and defend yourself by attempting to control the situation before they do. Sometimes you undermine others. Giving in often feels like humiliation to you so co operation and flexibility are terribly difficult. You come across to companions are determined, forceful, rather manipulative, even intimidating which surprises you because you know how crushed you often fell inside. In childhood you obviously felt that what you wanted was never considered relevant. You were the powerless one and now in adult life you fight to have a stronger say in matters. Your life has been full of odd coincidences, fated happenings and every so often you go through a period of sweeping changes. You have a strong need to cleanse yourself of the past and of past resentments but letting go is not easy for you. Jealousy and fear can be major problems for you. But on the positive side you have the ability to concentrate for long periods, have staggering endurance and are a real pillar of strength in crisis. You would be great at any work that requires digging, searching, investigating, and getting beneath the surface. You are wonderful at finding out other people's secrets and equally good at keeping your own. You can be a person of great influence.

moon glyph The Moon: Your Support System

Your Moon sign tells you how you like to be nourished and what gives you security. It shows your relationship to your past, your body, your emotional life, your family and your home.

Moon in Pisces

With the Moon in Pisces you are kind, compassionate, deeply sensitive and often hesitate to voice your feelings in case you are rejected. Serving others is your ideal, since you are conscious of the suffering around you. You do give a great deal to others but often feel martyred because your efforts are taken for granted. Learning to put down limits, and not soak in other people's pain is vital to your well being. At times you hide yourself away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and commitments just to protect yourself, and recover your inner peace. You can exist too much in a dream world as a way of escaping from a reality which often feels too harsh for you.
Home needs to be calm, soft-edged, preferably filled with music, with photographs or beautiful images on the walls. Close partners need to be thoughtful, subtly tuned into your moods, since you rarely ask for what you want. Your intuitions are strong, and often accurate, but too much information coming in can make you feel overwhelmed. You need to understand that you are a special person, with special needs.

Moon in the Third

Your Moon, which tells you what comforts you, is in the third house which rules communication and everyday contacts, so you have a habit of talking non stop, often in a rather emotional way. Others respect your sincerity, since they know your heart is in the right place, even if they do not always agree or even totally understand you. You can get too close to subjects under discussion or just chatter incessantly about nothing very much. The Moon rules the unconscious and feeling functions, while the third house rules the mental faculties, so you tend to mix emotion and logic together rather haphazardly, getting in a muddle as a result or being rather more biased than you imagine. Brothers and sisters play a significant part in your life, and you can become rather fond of workmates or neighbours whom you regard as part of the family.

Moon squares Mars

The Moon squares Mars so your home and family life tends to be turbulent and noisy. You throw a great deal of energy into your domestic life but you are accident prone and tend to stir up arguments. In childhood you felt a mother figure rather stifled your freedom of movement and this caused you to have temper tantrums. In adult life you sometimes find women extremely provoking. Your reaction to them is at times unreasonable. It is wise for you to abstain from indulging in too much alcohol. You can be insensitive.

Moon opposite Uranus

The Moon opposes Uranus so you can be highly strung and nervous and are very determined to protect your independence. At times your defiant, rebellious attitude towards family and close partners makes for an unstable emotional life. You had an insecure childhood in some respects and as an adult will always seek out the unusual and original in your adult home life. You are very restless and hate being tied in. Jealousy upsets you and you hate being crowded. You tend to challenge tradition.

Moon trine Neptune

The Moon is in easy aspect to Neptune so you can be amazingly kind and compassionate to those who are in need. But at home you can be evasive, uncertain and unrealistic. often you cannot pin down emotional misunderstandings or indeed understand what your feelings are really telling you. You need to be more practical about domestic organisation and your body. You may be prone to odd ailments or allergies.

Moon opposite Pluto

Your Moon opposes Pluto so you do tend to get pulled into rather heavy emotional relationships. You are desperately scared of being over controlled so you try to keep partners at arms length and they feel excluded or manipulated. You are undoubtedly a real rock in moments of crisis and can cope with difficult situations. But you are secretive about your feelings and never admit to being hurt. Your family life goes through periodic patches of upheaval. Other people often confide their innermost secrets to you.

Moon square Ascendant

Your Moon squares your Ascendant so your close ties with home and family, plus your career interest, may cut into your social life and personal charm. Others may find you somewhat preoccupied and lacking in the social graces. You may feel some regret or tension from this situation.

Mercury glyph Mercury: Mind and Communication

Mercury is your communication system. It shows how you think, how you put ideas together and how you put them across to others.

Mercury in Libra

With Mercury in Libra you are the diplomat par excellence, since you have a harmonious way of expressing yourself and love to keep the peace. Your greatest interest is in psychology, people's behaviour and how society fits together. You are keen on fairness, justice and loathe deception even more than arguments. Brash, vulgar, bad mannered or devious people make your hair stand on end, and you will go well out of your way to avoid them. Even sloppy dressing, inappropriate ways of talking, make you wince. Libra's famed indecisiveness, can make you dither around trying to make up your mind. You insist on seeing right round a subject, testing out every possible viewpoint. On occasion the opportunity to act or make a decision is lost by the time you have reached your conclusion. But your comments and opinions are usually wise once you know what they are. You can be enormously charming but at other times can be a mite too superficial since you like to be accepted. You often take mate's views too much into account. You need to develop your own opinions.

Mercury in the Ninth

Mercury, the communication planet, is in the ninth house, which rules the higher mind and long distance travel, so you have wide-ranging interests, a mind that is tolerant, expansive and enthusiastic, and an articulate way of expressing yourself. Others find you inspiring, honest and confident though at times you have been known to promise more than you can deliver. Not essentially practical in outlook, you can get swept up in your enthusiasms to the point where you lose touch with what is realistically possible. High flown subjects like philosophy and religion fascinate you and your ideas are always to the point and candid. You love talking to people from different backgrounds, different countries. You will write and teach well, and could be attracted to professions involved in education, communication or travel.

Mercury conjunct Jupiter

Mercury is close to Jupiter so you have an expansive, confident mind and an easy way with words. You inspire confidence and enthusiasm in those around you though at times you promise more than you can deliver. You never mean harm. Indeed you are very honest and genuine. But if you let your unrealistic side run away with you then you say things you cannot back up. You could be very much in demand as a counsellor. You are a problem-solver.

Mercury conjunct Uranus

Mercury is close to Uranus so you have a fast moving, rather erratic mind. Wonderful insights pop in suddenly and then pop back out just as quickly. You have to write down your ideas to keep track of them. At times you get bored with companions who seem to be so slow and often you do not hang around long enough to get feedback from them. At other times you can be absent minded and forgetful. You can find original solutions to old problems. High tech equipment like computers and subjects like astrology interest you.

Venus glyph Venus: Values and Discrimination

Your Venus shows how you approach love, light hearted entertainment and beauty. It has a profound influence on your social life and your taste.

Venus in Virgo

With Venus in Virgo, you can be reserved , rather shy, when it comes to expressing your romantic needs. You need to make more effort to break the ice and show your inner warmth. Virgo is an earth sign, so under your rather prudish exterior, they does lie a sensual streak. But you tend to analyze your feelings and those of partner's too much, standing back and dissecting every emotional situation, rather than just plunging into to enjoy the moment. This can have a dampening effect on developing relationships, and in the long term you can become rather chilly, critical or lonely. Acquaintances often feel you are rather stand-offish. Work is easier for you than indulging or playing, so you can feel out of place on social occasions unless you have a job to do. You have good taste, with a leaning towards high quality clothes, accessories and interior decor but always slightly understated. You dislike flashy displays of money, and vulgar people. Your fastidiousness about hygiene can sometimes get in the way of a relaxed sex life. Though paradoxically, depending on the aspects of other planets to Venus, you can sometimes be positively promiscuous. You love to help out and take care of others.

Venus in the Ninth

Venus, planet of love and indulgence, is in the ninth house which rules the higher mind and long distance travel, so you adore reading good books, and may even end up writing a few. Romantic fiction suits you. You are attracted to lovers from different countries than your place of origin and may end up marrying a foreigner. Socially charming, you adore mixing with a wide range of people and spreading your favours around fairly generously. At times it may seem a little insincere but you are popular. Love is an adventurous experience in your life and loved ones may expand your view of life and teach you a great deal. You may even study together or meet through places of higher education.

Venus trine Mars

Venus is in easy aspect to Mars so life for you is to be lived in a wholehearted manner. You enjoy being enthusiastic and value guts and gusto in those around you. Feelings are something you express with ease, and you appreciate others doing the same. Emotional drama is valued rather than avoided. Your appetite for action is well known, and well thought of. Sports, outdoor activities, and everything physical are high on your list of favourites. Sex is also important.

Venus trine Saturn

Venus is in easy aspect to Saturn so you can be sophisticated, elegant and rather cool. But underneath your sometimes glamorous appearance is someone who is shy, lonely and feels under loved. In childhood you were not valued as a feeling person. Too much stress was perhaps put on achievements so you feel you have to work to be loved. At times in your adult life you attracted yourself to people who were not good for you. Others may find you frugal or unnecessarily spartan, but you love simplicity as much as they love opulence. You need to learn to love yourself more. A sense of humour will develop in mid life as you learn to be more relaxed. You have a rare ability to be creative and practical at the same time so often you can turn your inner visions into reality.

Venus sextile Midheaven

Venus is in easy aspect to your Midheaven so your charm and diplomacy are ace cards for your career so you progress smoothly up the promotional ladder. At times you expect grace and pleasant manners to get you to your goals rather than hard work.

Mars glyph Mars: Drive and Emotions

Mars is your planet of energy and desire. What you want Mars sends you straight for whether it be love, sex, money or achievements.

Mars in Capricorn

With Mars in Capricorn your dynamic energy is channelled into work, achieving your ambitions and acquiring material security and possessions. Rather traditional and conservative in outlook, you strive to gain a solid reputation, and will jealously guard your position in society. Very practical, and long sighted, you can work over many years to get your mountain peak, but sometimes you forget your feelings in order to accomplish your aims. Occasionally you justify the means in terms of the end purpose, which can make you seem opportunistic and not always compassionate of the needs of those less gifted or less driven. You have executive ability in business and are willing to work exceptionally hard in a disciplined way to maintain order and good organisation. But you are as good at taking orders as you are at giving them, so you make a dedicated, reliable employee. The idle, unwashed and the unemployed irritate you and you cannot understand people with no motivation to succeed. Because Capricorn is an earth sign keen on stability and financial security, you will work hard to keep up pension payments and organise your retirement cottage years in advance. Highly practical, you always like to see a tangible result for your efforts. Although you like being in charge, you can be a competent craftsman, with a creative flair. You do have a sensual streak, fairly deeply buried, which needs an outlet, if you can prise yourself away from your daily schedule.

Mars in the First

Mars, planet of dynamic action, anger and libido, is in the first house which rules personal identity, so you are competitive, energetic and at times aggressive. Straight ahead is your motto, and if obstacles or people get in your way, you get impatient, sweeping them to one side, not always diplomatically. Luckily with maturity you generally learn that adding a veneer of tact can be a faster way of proceeding since you ruffle fewer feathers, and arouse less resistance, though you will always thrive on heated debates. Leaping into controversies positively cheers you up. If your temper sometimes gets you into trouble that is just the price you pay for the thrill of saying or doing precisely what you please. But for all your brashness, you are a born leader and highly courageous, who can cut through red tape, confusion and indecision and get straight to the point. Normally you are a flare up and forget it kind of person, who does not bear grudges for long.

Mars trine Saturn

Mars is in easy aspect to Saturn so you feel life is a struggle and you apply yourself conscientiously to responsibilities. If anything you try too hard and tend to force things. Others find your approach too serious and severe. In childhood you never felt that what you wanted was taken into consideration. So as an adult you can sometimes be too pushy about making your mark. You veer between being too passive and putting up with bad situations, then suddenly flaring up and being too abrasive. You do not have good control of your temper. You are spartan when it comes to your needs and surroundings. You should mellow as you age and develop a sense of humour.

Mars square Uranus

Mars is square Uranus so you are a sparky, strong individual who hates interference. Often you are your own worst enemy because your rebellious streak likes causing trouble. You have superhuman reserves of energy and can take on projects that make weaker people wilt, but you need to do things on your own terms. Often your unpredictability lets you down. Developing self-control and discipline will help. Your temper is hot and sharp and tends to snap out like a lightning bolt. You are aggressive in the pursuit of finding knowledge about all that is new, different, and out of the ordinary. Anything computerised or even astrological should interest you.

Mars conjunct Ascendant

Mars is close to the Ascendant so you are vital, active and aggressive though others sometimes find you brash as well. You are competitive and want to be first past the post. Sometimes you can be a mite too impatient.

Mars sextile Midheaven

Mars is in easy aspect to your Midheaven so your hard driving ambitions moves you ahead successfully at work. You are no slouch when it comes to putting in energy and hard work. Your success is well earned.

Jupiter glyph Jupiter: Career and Life Path

Jupiter shows you what you find easy in life, where you are confident and what areas provide you with luck and success.

Jupiter in Libra

With Jupiter in Libra, you bring idealism and enthusiasm to close relationships, and have a real concern for justice and fairness in society. This placing boosts your chances of finding and maintaining a harmonious long term partnership, based on shared interests and integrity. You expect other people to behave well and can become disillusioned if their standards fall below your expectations. Basically an optimist, you can pitch your hopes too high, preferring always to believe the best. Jupiter brings luck and ease to the Libra areas of social activity, marriage, partnerships of all kinds. Though sometimes you can try to be all things to all people, often fitting in with partner's wishes just to keep the peace. If you carry this to extremes, you can seem insincere or lacking in standards because you constantly change like a chameleon to fit your surroundings. You need to be like and accepted, and can be a touch snobbish. You certainly dislike people who are unwashed, vulgar, or unmotivated. Light, bright and colourful, you often prefer to skim the surface than face up to the darker side of life. You could enjoy a diplomatic, public relations or even legal career, since you work well with people as a go-between, negotiator, or mediator. You are open, but can at times be a touch moralistic in your judgements of those with a less conventional lifestyle.

Jupiter in the Ninth

Jupiter, expansive planet of good fortune and developing potential, is in your ninth house, which rules the higher mind and long distance travel, so you have a communicative mind, and the desire to study, to learn, to teach and perhaps to write books. You will write and talk well on a wide variety of topics. Fascinated by high flown subjects like philosophy, religion and morals, you can be amazingly knowledgeable about different belief systems, though oddly you can also be narrow minded. Jupiter is expansive but it can make you evangelical about your own beliefs. You assume they are the only truth, and can become extremist. You will be interested in foreign countries and long distance travel, keen to move around as much as possible. Your tolerance makes it possible for you to mix freely with almost everyone. Usually legal matters end well for you since Jupiter brings good luck.

Saturn glyph Saturn: Responsibilities

Saturn is what you have to struggle to learn in life, where you most doubt yourself. It points to the area where you are initially frustrated and restricted but ultimately gain most satisfaction.

Saturn in Taurus

With Saturn in Taurus you are strict with yourself where money and possessions are concerned. Saturn tends to look on the gloomy side of life and Taurus rules the world of material possessions, so you will constantly feel you do not have enough or what you have may be at risk. However you do work conscientiously over long periods of time to make and keep what you earn. You are never content unless your financial affairs are in order. You do have a great deal of stamina and a reputation for reliability and common sense. Though you may on occasion be accused of being a little mean where money is concerned, since the free flow of generosity does not come easily to you. Saturn is a rigid, hard-working, narrow-minded energy which does not sit easily with the indulgent Taurus. Your will have lessons to learn about finding the faith and trust in the bounty of the universe to let go control. Obstinacy and jealousy can be a problem since your attitudes tend to be fixed, at times unyielding. You may choose to have professional interests in the Taurus areas of money, farming, financial security, or creative skills.

Saturn in the Fourth

Saturn, the practical planet of self-discipline, limit, order and organisation, is in your fourth house which rules home and family matters, so you probably started life in a difficult setting and have had to struggle to establish a warm, happy, secure home life for yourself as an adult. Duty for you comes before pleasure and indulgence. Indeed you may use your domestic setup as a work base, or spend more time there doing chores, reading mind-improving books than you do relaxing. You have strict rules and regulations for yourself, and for those who share your home. It is almost as if you feel you do not deserve the luxury of simple pleasures. You have very simple needs regarding home and surroundings and some might find you frugal. It may be difficult for you to send down roots, build an emotional base for yourself. You need to understand your childhood and open up your feelings. Then you will find the second half of life will be more fulfilling.

Uranus glyph Uranus: Breakthroughs and Insights

Your Uranus shows you where in life you can expect to break new ground, become the innovator or the rebel. Life is never totally stable or placid with Uranus around but is often stimulating and exciting.

Uranus in Libra

With Uranus in Libra you are one of the generation born between 1968 and 1974 with this placing, who want to develop new concepts in close relationships, both in marriage and at work. Uranus is the pioneering energy which wants to open up new paths and abandon outworn concepts. Libra rules marriage, one-to-one partnerships, justice, the law and social attitudes. You can be exceptionally enlightened about and understanding about human behaviour and ways to make a fairer society for all, though you do expect everyone to pull their weight, and share your high sense of integrity and moral values. Fitting into a conventional humdrum marriage is not yours style, so you will demand a great deal more personal freedom than is traditional. At times others may accuse you of being erratic, unreliable or contradictory in your attitudes to emotional commitments. One moment you can be rigidly uncompromising and the next rather happy to give way. You do need partners who are as laid back and flexible as yourself. You are very tolerant and accepting of differences.

Uranus in the Ninth

Uranus, planet of innovation, sudden change and inspiration, is in your ninth house, which rules the higher mind, belief systems and long distance travel, so you will hold unusual beliefs and are unconventional where religion, philosophy or education is concerned. You have a fascinating mind, with bright, inventive opinions, and are always intrigued by ideas which are different. You are independent and completely unswayed by traditional spiritual or political outlooks. You have your own slant on the truth, and will speak your mind no matter the consequences. So you will be regarded as a rebel, a pioneer, and an experimenter. Your childhood teachings will be abandoned since you dislike having your agenda set for you. Long distance travel will bring you adventure and contact with the unusual in life.

Neptune glyph Neptune: Ideals and Imagination

Neptune shows you where you are at your most compassionate, creative and spiritual or most vague, evasive and unrealistic.

Neptune in Scorpio

With Neptune in Scorpio you are one of the generation born between 1955 to 1970 with this placing, who are unafraid of the "dark" side of life, interested in esoteric religion, and everything mystical or occult. Neptune is creative, spiritual, caring but also unrealistic, and can be spaced out. Scorpio rules sexuality, joint finances and attitudes towards death. Sexuality and physical desires are encouraged and seen as spiritual, and your behaviour is very different from your parents' generation. Sometimes you are careless in your sexual behaviour, leading to physical or emotional problems. Drug use is common amongst your age group. Emotional confusion can be a problem, though your chaotic feelings can be usefully channelled into rock music or dancing.

Neptune in the Eleventh

Neptune, planet of compassion, spirituality and creativity, is in your eleventh house, which rules friendships, group efforts and future plans, so you tend to attract dreamy, artistic or spiritual friends. But often you feel disappointed or let down by them, partly because you see them in too rosy a glow. They may be wonderful but they are also unreliable, evasive when you need support, and downright deceptive at times. You need to be more realistic. You are always uncertain about your future plans but your intuition will serve you well in this respect. Humanitarian or idealistic causes will attract you since you have a vision of a better society, and will want to join with like-minded people in trying to make that dream come true.

Neptune sextile Pluto

Neptune is in easy aspect to Pluto so your interest in religion, spiritual matters, and things that stretch beyond the course of a single human life-time is quite unique. Others may not be able to share your vision into the spiritual and psychological realms, seeing you as someone rather strange. At times you can be confused about the difference between what is real and what is not real. Your obsessions can be confusing and misleading. Alcohol needs to be watched with care as do drugs. You can have real talents in the areas of the paranormal and supernatural.

Pluto glyph Pluto: Inner Change and Growth

Pluto is the planet of profound change. It indicates where you are at your most compulsive and anguished yet where ultimately the key to your development lies.

Pluto in Virgo

With Pluto in Virgo you are one of the generation born between 1956 and 1971 with this placing who have a strong interest in regenerating your physical well being which means taking an interest in diet, vitamins and medical matters. You put your body under strain at times but then throw your energy into resolving your problems. Serving and caring for yourself and others are primary sources of inner growth and changes. Pluto is about power and transformation, the abandoning of old ideas and the re-birth of new situations. Virgo rules health, hygiene, diet, the body, employment and attitudes to service, and communication. You will not find cooperation that easy in the workplace, but you are well- designed to salvage, or build up broken down situations. Living with the status quo and accepting conventional wisdom is not your way.

Pluto in the Ninth

Pluto, planet of power, control, influence and transformation, is in your ninth house which rules the higher mind, belief systems and long distance travel, so you are passionate in your search for truth and education. You can be highly opinionated about politics, religion or philosophy but need to learn that what is true for you is not necessarily true for someone else." One man's meat is another man's poison". At some point in life you may go through a conversion experience in your spiritual beliefs and thereafter will become much more detached. People from abroad or different countries may have a powerful influence on your thinking and life. Long distance travel may be stressful, but will bring profound experiences.

Pluto square Ascendant

Pluto is square your Ascendant so you can be a little too pushy and controlling when it comes to relationships with other people. Your intense, secretive approach can be off putting for milder souls. Perhaps you do not understand how strong your personality really is.

Chiron glyph Chiron:

Chiron is a planetoid discovered in 1977, named after the great wounded healer of Greek mythology. It tells you where you feel damaged in life, but paradioxically where you can also be of greatest help to others as a teacher and carer.

Chiron in Aries

You have Chiron in Aries so you feel reluctant to push yourself forward, to take direct action and maybe feel incapable of standing alone to state your deepest held beliefs. Yet you will become uncannily the one who can help others develop a stronger sense of identity and help them become more motivated. You can teach others to develop their leadership potential.

Chiron in the 3rd

You have Chiron in your third house so you will early on have to struggle to find ways of expressing yourself clearly, to brothers and sisters perhaps, then everyday companions in adult life. Knowing a little about many things will become important, since versatility is a trait to be developed. Handing on what you have learned will make you expert on language and communication.


Elements and Modalities

The Main Emphasis in Your Chart

There are few or no planets in Fire signs.

With a shortage of Fire planets in your chart, you lack that native confidence and trust in life, which will allow you to bounce enthusiastically into new ventures or relationships. You start from a position of caution, sometimes downright pessimism, and need to develop more faith in the bounty of the universe. Fire energy is imaginative, self confident, speedy, never-so-no and never admit you have failed. Fire has that irrepressible rubber-ball quality which bounces back from any setbacks and just tries and tries again. You need a broader vision and more soaring ambitions. Lift your sights and see what living on a loftier level will do for your joie de vivre.

There are few or no planets in Fixed signs.

You have a lack of Fixed planets in your chart, so you tend not to have staying power in your temperament in early adult life, which means you may miss out on opportunities to display just how talented you really are. You may be a great starter of new projects or skilled at adapting to others, but you will need to develop stamina, to enable you to hang on for the long course. The fixed energy is what gives structure and stability to life, and you will need to find new ways of giving yourself the enthusiasm and confidence to carry projects further down the line than may feel initially comfortable. Then you will reap the harvest which is your due.
