Birth Chart Report for Anthony Doerr
Your Sun Sign
Sun in Scorpio
The eighth sign of the zodiac is the most enigmatic of all and has a reputation for being mysterious and powerful. In the northern hemisphere, Scorpio heralded the ending of the year and the sign became associated with fermentation and decay, as death stalked the countryside and announced the time for withdrawal. Astrologically this realm locates the deepest layers of the human psyche, the forge where integrity is fired and shaped through self-analysis. With the Sun in Scorpio you learn to trust your instincts and emotionally differentiate between truth and falseness from an early age. Your emotions can be intense, your feelings deep and powerful, suggesting that in your life you need to experience passion, honesty and intimacy in all walks of life. Vocationally you need to be respected for the power of your feelings and the truth of your convictions.
In Scorpio we encounter the hidden and unexpressed aspects of the self as well as the negative impulses that we must learn to control and direct. Therefore with your Sun in Scorpio you are challenged to summon the psychological strength to contain your compulsions and create space for unwanted feelings. You have the emotional capacity to contain these impulses and the integrity to act honestly and authentically. Therefore you may feel drawn to working with others in difficult situations, dealing with crisis or helping in transition. Your innate capacity to summon inner strength in the face of emotional adversity and loss means you are unafraid to acknowledge the reality of your feelings, mourn for what has past or grieve for what cannot be. Your emotional integrity is therapeutic and transformational, helping others to heal and move forwards through the dark. You have a powerful gift of being able to confront the most difficult truths and feel unashamed of your humanness. Therefore you might feel called to use this in your vocation either as a therapist, healer, counsellor or any other profession where you can combine the complex amalgam of love and honesty in your life work.
Integrity is your virtue, that ability to be painfully honest with those you love, to disclose your own vulnerability and face the truth about what has happened. You have the emotional courage to face the disappointments and anger of others. You also have the capacity to trust in yourself and know that when others let you down, you can forgive them, or more importantly forgive yourself. It is this integrity that allows you to know the depth of intimacy and the power of love. Knowing how to be trustworthy, you are able to contain the fears and vulnerabilities of others. Your integrity inspires others to be honest and open. Through this open exchange trust can be built. At the end your integrity is the key to self-mastery and a clear conscience. To find your vitality and spirit and to feel soulful in the world, you need to strive for honesty, trust and truth using your intuitive and resourceful faculties.
Your Moon Sign
Moon in Scorpio
You are born with the Moon in Scorpio suggesting that you are nurtured through close and trusting bonds with others. Rather than breadth you need depth of contact. You feel deeply, intensely and passionately, often preferring to contain your feelings rather than expressing them. You often feel your own emotions are too intense or destructive to express; at other times you prefer to be private, being no stranger to feelings of grief and loss. Yet, when you do share your feelings, they are often transforming and liberating. You are a witness to your own power of honesty. Because of your urge to get to the depth of the matter, destiny often provides you with the critical situation to know the transforming power of your feeling life.
When you were young you did not have the full capacity to understand your intensity and depth. You may have experienced this in your need to be private, keep a secret diary, your interest in all things hidden and mysterious, sexual curiosity or through intimate friendships. However as you have matured you have recognised this need. Trust, integrity and honesty are paramount for you in order to begin to open to intimacy with another. Your need to be intimate is important in any life path highlighting your need to trust those you work with and for. Ultimately, power is an issue you experience on your life path as your intensity and integrity threatens others. Even though others may be insecure and you risk hurting their feelings, the truth is more important to you. You must continue to dig below the surface even if that is confronting to others. Metaphorically you are an archaeologist and in depth analyst who excavates buried treasure. This may also manifest in any profession that requires you to dig deep in a literal sense, such as scientific research, editing and proof-reading detailed reports and written works, encoding computer programming languages or perhaps in formulating detailed political policy.
If you are called to the nurturing professions then your Moon in Scorpio may be drawn to critical care, oncology, bereavement counselling, emergency work or in depth therapeutic work. To care for the soul suggests that you are able to honour the dark, recover the repressed and honour the feeling life without judgement or strictures.
Your Rising Sign
Ascendant in Scorpio
When your Ascendant resides in the Zodiac Sign of Scorpio you are destined to learn some lessons through the sharing of resources, including money. For this reason you need to be more cautious than most before sharing your resources and certainly before borrowing money from someone else. Debt is not your friend. You're shrewd, resourceful, perceptive, secretive, proud, and reserved. All of this is true when it comes to the subject of money as well. So is your purpose aligned to money? Only in so much that you are destined to learn about material, emotional, intellectual and spiritual wealth. You are more aware than many of the depths and heights of human experiences. Your purpose is to learn how to communicate your wisdom to others without intentionally causing harm. The key to achieving your true purpose is to act with integrity at all times. You have a strong will, which is best applied to achieving positive results rather than to the thoughts of jealousy and revenge, which sometimes might linger in the back of your mind. The insights that you gain from any early age are invaluable, and can be shared with others in a way that benefits all concerned. True joy comes from sharing the highs and lows of other people and them regenerate their spirit. If you would like to focus on a positive affirmation connected to money then with your Scorpio Ascendant you could use this one from “Creating Money – Keys to Abundance” by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer “My value and worth are increased by everything I do”.

At social gatherings you can often be found in an intense conversation in the corner of a room, rather than taking part in the general social chat. Communications with you are intense. While you're good at listening to others, you can also have a tendency to be obsessed with your own problems. You're a worrier.

You do enjoy relating to foreigners, because they can teach you so much about yourself and life in general. If you can't continually be on the road, then you like to hear about other people's journeys. Your friends come from all walks of life and you're popular, so there are many friends.

Mars in Taurus
The planet Mars in the sign of Taurus indicates that you have a reserved and quiet side to your nature, which could fool other people into thinking that you're soft and pliable. In fact the opposite is true. You're quietly determined to go about your business in a practical and efficient manner, and expect other people to do the same. You can have difficulty getting motivated, but once started there's no stopping you. You're a quiet achiever, and quite ambitious, but you don't interfere with other people, nor do you expect them to interfere in your business. You can be quite stubborn in your attempts to get on with your own projects using your own methods, which you consider to be more practical than many other people's. You're not easily thwarted and you can usually be relied on to carry out your promises. You are an acquisitive person, and are likely to benefit materially through your own hard work, or perhaps through legacies. You like the material side of life, enjoying both the comfort and security of wealth. You also enjoy the sensual side of life. Behind that quiet exterior lurks a warm and passionate nature.

While conscious of the rights of individuals, you are also a humanitarian and like to see each person contributing their gifts to humanity. Your interests may be linked with the fields of science and metaphysics, or it may simply be that you've an unusual approach to a traditional field. It's certainly true that you've an original and inventive approach to life, and this can be inspirational to other people. You're cheerful and social, and enjoy exchanging ideas with other people in convivial circumstances. You're likely to spread your unusual ideas through teaching or in lectures in academic circles or foreign countries. At times you can be so involved in intellectual pursuits that you're indifferent to the ordinary affairs of life.
Saturn in Cancer
The planet Saturn in the sign of Cancer signifies that although you work hard to achieve your objectives in life, you suffer from feelings of discontentment.

You can become quite resentful if you feel that other people are standing in your way, putting up obstacles to your latest change of heart. As a result you can sometimes feel quite isolated from other people, and also quite revengeful and deceitful. You need to be wary of feelings of suicide. The reason for your struggles, astrologically speaking, is that the planet Saturn is considered to be in detriment in the sign of Cancer. On a brighter side you do have the ability to overcome this side of your nature and to aim towards emotional satisfaction at work and home. You need to make sure that the vengeful and restless side of your nature is kept to a minimum, and to be honest with yourself and other people. In this way you can slowly and surely work towards achieving a happy home and workplace.
Uranus in Libra
The planet Uranus was in the sign of Libra from 1968 - 1975.

Chiron in Aries
You are a sensitive soul whose journey towards wholeness may involve you in events that make you feel that you are singled out in some way.
It may be necessary for you to cross a threshold, perhaps some kind of pain barrier, emotional or physical, before you can embrace your own creative potential with full confidence. You may be defined in some way by a wounding event that calls into question your identity. As a result you may become a leader or pioneer. Even though being in charge and taking the initiative means facing your fears, you are capable of inspirational leadership and taking decisive action.
You may feel vulnerable, feeling that your pain and scars are visible to others. By being courageous, you will find the key to face life's challenges.
At times you perhaps feel a deep sense of isolation, or aloneness and feel that you have to push ahead on your own, without much support from others. But relationships will also bring you opportunities to heal. Over time you will begin to forge supportive connections with others who may have undergone similar experiences. You will discover you have a rare gift to heal others as well as yourself.
Planets in Houses
Sun in 12th House
The progressed Sun moves slowly through the houses. The twelfth house of your chart is currently emphasized indicating that you are working behind the scenes on something significant. This could mean that you are going through a more introspective phase, contemplating the universe. On the other hand it could indicate that you are spending many hours concentrating on a particular long-term project. Perhaps you have a sense that you are preparing for greater things? If so, look to see when your Sun progresses into your first house. This is when your life is likely to turnaround.
Moon in 1st House
This is your time to shine, to receive the rewards of your previous hard work and accolades for your achievements. Perhaps you have been secretly working away on a project, concentrating your efforts on behind the scenes activities or quietly pouring your energies into a budding relationship? Now you can step forward and declare your interests. For instance you may have been working quietly and steadily on a written project, which you are hoping will one day be published. Now is the right time for you to seek publishers and recognition for your work. Perhaps you have been persistently working on a business idea, consulting financial planners and setting up a network of contacts and colleagues, searching for the appropriate venue or establishing a home office. Now you can reap the rewards of your networking. Whatever the scenario now is the right time to assert yourself and consciously seek your happiness. It is also the ideal time to reassess your personal image and habits. A new health regime will give you the boost needed to cope with this phase. You may change your personal fashion style, your hair and clothes in a way that more authentically reflects your personality. The sign of your progressed Moon will also show you the manner in which you are likely to assert this new assertive side of your nature. For instance if your progressed Moon is in a fire or air sign then you are likely to be more gregarious and inspirational, making quite dramatic changes. However, if your progressed Moon is in an earth or water sign then you may have a more steady approach.
Mercury in 1st House
Sharpen your intellectual sword because you are going to need it. Communications, contracts, merchandise and anything connected with your mind and wit are coming to the forefront. You may have been contemplating many areas of your life in the past but now you are gaining understanding. As a result spoken and written projects may begin. You may also embark on short journeys that keep you busy, demand your skills and encourage you out of your habitual modus operandi. There is no rush but you may find yourself juggling quite a few balls during this new phase of your life. If you have a bright wit and intellect then you are likely to sparkle. Quick wit and repartee, accompanied with substance, will take you far. You may also decide to study or learn a new skill which in turns propels you onto a different path.
Venus in 2nd house
Venus, the planet of beauty and symmetry, is in your astrological sector of resources revealing your love of art and refinement. This suggests you have a highly developed sense of taste, value the sensual pleasures of life and appreciate form and design. Venus is also the natural ruler of the 2nd House so she feels at home here, valuing the pleasures that the material world can provide. Therefore money is important for the luxury and cultivated lifestyle that it can provide. Since you have an instinctual knack for dealing with money you may be drawn to earning your income in the banking, financial or economic sectors. While this might not be the case for you, what is important is that you reflect on your attitude towards earning and spending. Personal worth and value are bound up with money and it is important to be aware of the link between your inner feelings of worth and value and material acquisitions. Therefore it is important to reflect on your familial conditioning about money and power, as well as the early attitudes that you might have internalised about your own sense of worth and value. It is important to consider how feminine values were appreciated and respected.
A peaceful and attractive environment contributes to yourself-esteem, as ultimately the aesthetics of the outer world reflect an inner feeling of harmony and being in the right place. Therefore you might enjoy investing a large part of your income in what pleases you like clothes, furnishings, art, music etc. When beauty and taste surround you, you feel well. If you are not aware of this aspect of your nature monitor your sense of well being when you are in a chaotic and messy environment as compared to a tasteful and refined one. Inherently you have a knack for pleasing and attracting others. Venus encourages you to be partnered and archetypically with this placement money, sex and relationship may be intertwined. Therefore it is imperative to be honest about these issues before they become enmeshed in a difficult web.
Consistent with this astrological placement is often a talent for art, music or social skills. Many like Patsy Cline, Elvis Presley and k.d. lang have been blest with a rich and attractive voice. While this may not be your destiny it would be worthwhile considering what skills and resources you value about yourself and how you might want to earn your living developing these. Or at least expressing this talent through a hobby. With Venus in this sphere you may be drawn to earning your income in many ways. Most consistent with this archetype would be jobs connected to art, beauty and the urge to beautify. Or you might be inclined towards pursuing a profession where the development of social skills and hospitality is a priority. This placement suggests that working with others, socialising and relating are skills that are developed through making a living. People skills are resources that need to be developed in order to feel satisfied through what you do. This suggests you might be drawn to professions where diplomacy and protocol are important or work in partnership with others. This urge could be satisfied through a variety of ways which help others improve their own sense of worth, attractiveness and well being, ranging from counselling and beauty therapy through to massage and aromatherapy. Whatever path you choose it is important to remember that the goddess of love and beauty wants to be honoured and acknowledged in your vocation.
Mars in 6th house
Entrepreneurial Mars is in the 6th house of your horoscope. Like all planets in the 6th house, Mars needs to be used regularly and integrated into your lifestyle. Mars is the god of action so astro-logically this suggests that movement, excitement, activity and exertion are all important elements of your daily routine. Your task is to find ways to channel the aggressive instincts into your daily routines. Physically you are able to do this through working out at the gym, running, swimming or walking, or making sure you are active. This energy is doing, not being, and therefore when it comes to your job you also need to find an energetic way to approach work. Physical exertion will go a long way to appeasing this drive but it is also important that you are able to tap into the enterprising, and vital spirit of Mars in the work sphere.
Reflect on your competitive nature. How does this manifest in your experience and how do you acknowledge it. This placement suggests it exists in your working life and therefore is important to express. You may set goals and deadlines for yourself or you may compete with others in the workplace. Or you may find yourself in a highly competitive industry where wits and will need to combine to win the game. It is probably healthy for you to see work as a game you are striving to win. Reflect also on what you want. What are your desires. Again Mars in the 6th house suggests you have strong ambitions at work and it is best you are overt about these. In other words when everything is out in the open you are freer to be able to go for what you want.
Independence, challenges and adventure are part of your working terrain. While it might not suit you to be an adventure hunter, the metaphor is still apt. Whether you are hunting for the right product, being head hunted, or tracking down the problem, work is about accepting the invitation to be challenged and competitive. Being entrepreneurial you work well on your own, following your instincts. You also may be suited to following a trade, whether that is an electrician, a plumber or any other occupation that allows you to fix the problem. Your skills of strategy and precision combine to make you good at decision making and often you are the one called on to make the decision that is needed in a hurry. Destiny seems to have drawn you to a job where there is a great demand to get things done quickly or immediately, or at least in an occupation where you are summonsed to be present. However your exacting nature could also manifest in a myriad of ways from surgical skills to clear-cut decision-making. Work is a place you want to feel alive, stretched and challenged so when you are in a job that keeps you on your toes you are happy.
When you find your work to be less than stimulating, boring, or too routine, then you will find yourself becoming restless, irritated and stroppy. You might also find yourself becoming argumentative with your work mates just to feel some energy moving. Therefore it is important you know how much movement, change and stimulus are a vital part of your everyday life. However it is also of help to realise that you are highly capable and can turn your enterprising energy to making sure your daily routines are mapped out and executed. You have a military mind when it comes to work and that could be used to your advantage.
Jupiter in 3rd House
Jupiter is also in the 3rd House of your chart signifying that ideas, particularly philosophical ones, abound in your life as you seek to expand your mind through various avenues. Reading, studying, travelling, correspondence courses, newsletters and interest groups all feature in your quest to learn more about yourself and life in general. You're surrounded by books, magazines and other publications that provide plenty of food for thought. You're a great thinker and talker, often delighting yourself and your friends with your inspirational ideas. Always optimistic you enjoy communicating with other people either through conversation or correspondence. You're a thoughtful person, and letter writing, emailing and texting are just some of the ways that you like to keep in touch with your friends. How you manage to fit it in to your busy schedule continues to amaze your friends. Writing is such an enjoyable pastime that you may decide to extend your talents and write a novel or a professional publication. If so then you're likely to be successful in finding a publisher. While you enjoy your local neighbourhood, it's also likely that you delight in travelling abroad either to study or to teach. You take pleasure in having contact with people from different countries, sharing ideas and striking up new friendships.
Saturn in 8th House
The planet Saturn progresses slowly through the Zodiac and therefore its influence is subtle. Saturn is a wonderful planet when you do your homework. However, if you try to escape your responsibilities then you are likely to suffer the consequences. So wherever this planet progresses you need to listen to your conscience and obey, rather than try to cut corners. In your case Saturn is progressing now through the 8th House of the Zodiac which is linked with seasons, birth, death, business and metaphysics. Therefore you are likely to take life quite seriously. Of course you may have been born with Saturn in your 8th House and so your nature might be serious. The progression of Saturn through this section of your Birth Chart sees you learn by experience. You are likely to be focus on matters of depth rather than superficial ones. This is a wonderful opportunity to build a legacy that is worthwhile for others in society.
Uranus in 12th House
The planet Uranus is in the 12th House of your birth chart suggesting that you often experience intuitive flashes, on which you rely to guide you through difficult situations. While it's true that you do possess psychic abilities that enable you to foresee troubles, you also need to be wary of falling prey to thoughts of doom and gloom. You're likely to suffer at the hands of secret enemies at some stage of your life, perhaps even being forced to flee from your home. It probably comes as a complete surprise to you that you've secret enemies, but on reflection you can see how your own actions may have stirred up resentment in other people. It's possible that you've been conducting a secret love affair, which suddenly becomes public, or it could be that you've been secretly plotting to undermine someone else. Either way these things have a habit of suddenly becoming public and leading to your downfall. Fortunately, you possess an unusual ability to overcome these challenges. You're not easily deterred from exploring your original talents. Your challenge is to put your talents to good use, which you may do by working in an unusual institution or taking an interest in occult studies. Your psychic and mystical experiences can be ultimately of great benefit to humanity.
Neptune in 2nd House
Neptune, the planet associated with spirituality, fantasy and otherworldliness, is in the financial sector of your horoscope bringing its mystical and creative ability to bear on your attitudes towards money, earning a living and resources. At face value this might suggest that your perspective towards money and possessions are not well-grounded in reality. Therefore it is important to recognise your propensity towards being out of touch with the commercial world. On the other hand it reveals that your earning capacity and resourceful nature is fluid and creative and that you value the more refined, spiritual and artistic aspects of life. On a practical level you would be able to do well investing in art, creative ideas or spiritual projects. However this archetype manifests in your experience, it suggests that you need to acknowledge the powerful rip tide in your life that pulls you away from the ordinariness of making a living. Being in the work a day world may be painful and soul destroying until you are able to reconcile the two worlds and incorporate your creative longing in the everyday experience of earning a living. To do this you need to recognise that your talent and skills are coloured by the Neptunian archetype of transcendence, suggesting that you need to make your living as an artist or a healer. Whether or not it is one of these avenues, you are satisfied most when your spiritual longing can find a place on the pedestrian walk of life.
Therefore it is wise to reflect on whether your attitude towards money is misshapen by spiritual beliefs or driven by fantasy. You have a propensity to confuse the material and spiritual worlds, leaving your ability to handle money matters in chaos. If this is the case then it is best to seek practical advice about how to manage your money in the best possible way for you. It is important that you do not unconsciously collude with sacrificing or surrendering your talents due to feeling impoverished. On the other hand you also need to recognise the enormous potential of Neptune in your financial sector because anything becomes possible. Your task is to not let your creativity or spirituality be held back by lack of money. This suggests you need to bring your artistry, your compassion and your magic into how you earn your living. You need to appreciate and value your own creativity before it can be visible to others.
Re-enchanting the way you earn a living in a disenchanted world may not be easy. However it is not impossible and it is the archetype of Neptune that inspires you. This suggests that it is possible to make your living in a creative and spiritual way. In fact it becomes a necessity, as it is in the mundane world where you need to find the magic. Rather than turning away from the traditional, physical and mundane world of commerce and industry you need to embrace it in an inspirited way. Your struggle with money is soul making and for you soulfulness lies in the everyday world of making a living.
Pluto in 11th House
The planet Pluto is in the 11th House of your birth chart indicating that friendships, and groups are a challenge. On a positive note you may feel drawn to powerful friends who have a profound effect on your life, enabling you to achieve your hopes and wishes. It's also possible that you become involved with a significant group or groups that transform your life for the better. You may be drawn to political or humanitarian groups, which have a commitment to making the world a better place. These groups can be a vehicle for you to achieve your commitment to humanitarian ideals. However, you need to be wary of being betrayed or misled by unscrupulous friends, or groups that are not entirely above board. You may also experience conflict with your friends. If this is the case it's important that you choose friends who have the ability to communicate with you at a deep level, and resolve any disagreements.
NorthNode in 2nd House
Your North Node is in the 2nd House with the South Node being placed in the eighth. Astrologically this is the polarity that sets your personal worth and assets in opposition to the pool of shared resources and mutual values. In your chart the tendency may be to become entangled with others' assets before clearly having defined your own. On a mundane level this could simply suggest that you are adept at handling other people's money and investments but need to be more aware of building your own wealth and capital. On an emotional level this could indicate that you become deeply involved with others. However, being therapeutic and intensely aware of others' needs may deplete your own emotional reserves. Professionally this suggests that your innate ability to be deeply connected to others needs, your restorative nature and your capacity to successfully build up others' capital resources must be aligned with your own needs. Vocationally this hints at a resourceful career in the healing, research, financial or investment sectors.
What am I worth is an important question to ask on your road to enlightenment. Finding the answer to this question, along with developing yourself-esteem and self worth, is the invitation offered by your nodal axis. Your task is to develop your own resources, skills and wherewithal. It may be tempting to rely on the emotional, financial and material resources of others but security is not there; instead it lies in the possession and ownership of yourself and the journey towards finding your own values. With a well-developed sense of self-esteem and value you are more able to find the intimate relationship to share yourself and not be ripped off. But until you have developed that sense of self worth there may be a risk of counting on others who are not skilled to be emotionally and financially equal. Therefore it is wise not to trust or count on others until you know you can count on and trust in yourself. The course of your path in the world echoes the theme of trust, security and value of the self, learning to respect your innate sense of worth and value. Once you learn to manage your own power and abilities you will find that others will want to invest in your resources.
Chiron in 6th house
Chiron is in your 6th house. While not categorised astronomically as a planet, astrologers are very aware of its profound significance and proclaim its need to be accessed regularly and integrated into your lifestyle. Therefore it is highly likely that the dynamics of wounding and healing will play a role in your job. Literally this may describe one of many healing occupations, especially the holistic healing professions. Ancient medicine had both a rational and a magical approach to health, reflected today in biomedicine and complementary or alternate medicine. Chiron is the originator of the healing arts which unite physical, mental and spiritual approaches to healing. Therefore with Chiron in your 6th you may be involved in traditional medicinal practices, or in some capacity with disciplines like naturopathy, homeopathy, herbalism, chiropractic healing, Feldenkreis, osteopathy, acupuncture, Chinese medicine, crisis counselling, shamanism, dream therapy, psychotherapy, Reiki, astrology or other modalities that work with imagery and symbols as a healing tool. Probably you have always understood the subtle amalgam of mind and matter or wounding and healing. Fate has led you to work with mysterious and subtle form of energy in healing the mind and body as well as compelled you to incorporate this in your daily work caring for either people, or animals.
One of the ways you may have been led into your work is through your own suffering or experience. Through understanding something for yourself on a deeper level you are able to work with others in the same predicament. You may not literally have the wound or scar, but somewhere deep inside you understand the nature of disease and healing. Therefore you could also find yourself working in the health field with those recovering from addictions or trauma or in social work with refugees or displaced and disenfranchised individuals. Chiron was also a mentor and teacher and therefore is connected with mentoring professions such as life coaches, mentors, and inspirational teachers, or simply tutors and teachers who are dedicated to their students.
It is important to honour the aspect of yourself that does not fit into the system. You might be required to work in a structure, a system, an organisation, which you find difficult. Therefore it is important to note that the influence of Chiron in your professional work may be that you feel marginal to the system you work in, or on the periphery of your professional associations. Ironically you are not. But you understand something beyond the system and outside the radar and will not compromise your own understanding. While you might feel foreign to the system you work in, there is a lot of freedom in that. You may actually be a foreigner in the work system. This could manifest in a variety of ways; however it does, it is most important to celebrate your differences and use them to your advantage, not turn it against yourself with feelings of not belonging. Work, service, wounding and healing are intimately bound together in your work destiny.
Nodes
NorthNode in Sagittarius
You were born with the North Node in Sagittarius and the South Node in Gemini, the mutable polarity of the zodiac which aligns with the quest for knowledge and truth. Your South Node suggests that you have a curiosity for life while your North Node suggest a call to adventure, to quest for truth and meaning seeking answers to the larger questions of life. Therefore vocationally it is important to pack a suitcase or strap on a backpack as preparation for a journey of discovery and education. To discover your pathway in the world you will need freedom of movement and lots of opportunities to be mobile. Opportunities for growth, advancement and learning as well as your intuitive and strategic abilities need to be fostered in a career. You need to know that you have an infinite range of possibilities, a freedom of movement, wide-open spaces and a limitless promise of discovery in your career; anything less is disappointing!
Your invitation is to be able to perceive the bigger picture out of the infinite information and communication available. Your task is to make the information meaningful, offer vision in a short sighted environment, see beyond the details and inject spirit into a soulless world. You must battle the dragon of being too logical and rational and use the divine gift of your intuition and perception to make a difference. While you feel more comfortable in the square your destiny lies outside it and you will be called on to be much more visionary and far seeing than you are comfortable with. Your destination points towards education and mentoring. Somewhere along the way you have accumulated a tremendous amount of information, facts and data. In fact you may still feel that you need to gather more through classes, courses and programs. However this may leave you feeling stuck in the role of apprentice and learner, rather than what your destiny pulls you towards and that is the role of educator and visionary. Somehow it is imperative to channel your learning into the creation of new systems of knowledge and education. Your idealism and interest in social education and reform may require that there is a degree of social involvement in your occupation.
Ethics, morals and ideals are important; therefore it is essential that your work reflects your personal ethics. You need to be involved with something that you can believe in and recommend. Your philosophical and humanistic view of the world needs to be utilised, as then an enthusiastic energy that inspires and motivates others is natural. Vocations involving the dispensation of knowledge, sales, motivation and encouraging others to perform beyond their limits are natural for you. Your need for freedom and the necessity to fully express yourself to pursue your goals openly and honestly is important.
Aspects
Sun Soft Pluto
You're likely to achieve your life goals because you're a powerful person with strong leadership abilities. The Sun is making contact with the planet Pluto in your birth chart meaning that you know when to be assertive and when to compromise, essential qualities for succeeding in life. You're able to apply yourself to the job at hand, concentrating your energies on any project in which you wish to succeed. You're intense, obsessive and have the power to achieve your goals. At times this can be disconcerting to other people, but you're unlikely to worry about the effect that you have on other people. You like honest and direct communications, and find it easy to rid yourself of unwanted people or situations. In fact you are somewhat intolerant of other less-powerful people. It's likely that your father, or a strong parental figure, played an important role in your early childhood. You learnt at an early age how to fend for yourself. As an adult you're a real go-getter. Your challenge is to express your power in a positive manner. You may be interested in executive positions, and or in playing a prominent role in society, such as becoming a politician.
Sun Soft Saturn
The Sun is making contact with the planet Saturn in your chart indicating that you're responsible and reliable. Life is a serious business, and you're likely to adhere to the adage that "you get from life what you put into it". This is particularly true for the areas of work and career, which are important to you. You're ambitious and have the self discipline to succeed in your chosen profession. It's likely that you will have the chance to take on responsibilities and prove yourself successful at some stage in your life, although you're more likely to rise to the challenge as you grow older. Life could have been somewhat onerous as a child, and you could have difficulty getting started on the right path. Once you've settled on your goals then you've the common sense and self-confidence to work consistently towards successfully achieving your ambitions. It's likely that your father has played a major role in your life either through his imposing presence or through his absence. Your father may have earned your fear or respect leaving his mark on your character. Your father's guidance may also have helped or hindered your progress in life. Either way he's been a significant influence in your life. It's also possible that you took on extra responsibilities at a young age, because of your father's inability to live up to his responsibilities. This could have been as a result of your father's own weaknesses or an illness, or separation or even death. While you believe that certain experiences are "character building", you may have some difficulty coming to terms with the lasting effects of your relationship with your father. Perhaps in latter years you will gain understanding from your experiences.
Sun Hard Jupiter
The Sun is making contact with the planet Jupiter in your birth chart indicating that you've the ability to achieve your life goals, but the path isn't always easy. On the positive side you are optimistic and enthusiastic and are likely to encounter good fortune at some stage during your life. It's possible that a father or grandfather figure gives you a helping hand towards achieving your goals. However, you've a tendency to jeopardise your own success through being grandiose in your goals and plans. You've an overly-optimistic and idealistic approach to life, which prevents you from making a realistic appraisal of most situations. You can be restless, needing excitement and adventure, finding it difficult to commit to a course of action or to settle in one place. Depending on other influences in your chart you're the typical ideas person who has difficulty putting in the hard work needed to achieve a finished product. Your challenge is to find a balance between stability and adventure. "Moderation in all things" could be a good motto to remind you to curb your excesses. Once you've learned self-restraint then you're able to reach all of your goals.
Sun Hard Mars
The Sun is making a difficult contact with the planet Mars in your birth chart meaning that your life goals are constantly being challenged. This is most frustrating because you know what you want to achieve, but obstacles often seem to stand in your way. As a young child it's likely that strong parent figures or difficult circumstances prevented you from getting all that you wanted. Now as an adult the battle continues, and you feel that you have to fight to achieve your goals. You may not be aware of how often you're jeopardising your own success by trying too hard and tackling projects and other people too aggressively. You need to learn the difference between assertion and aggression. You may believe that you're simply stating your own case clearly, but others believe that you're being pushy and dogmatic. The positive side is that you've plenty of energy to achieve your goals, you enjoy taking risks and are not afraid of confronting difficulties. You simply need to find a healthy outlet for your enthusiasm and energy. The challenge is to use your will power so that you can achieve success through co-operation with others.
Moon Hard Pluto
The Moon and the planet Pluto are connected in your birth chart indicating that you're an intense and emotional person, prone to extreme highs and lows. You love drama and intensity, because these give you a sense of being deeply connected to your loved ones, and to the world. It's likely that your family and home life are periodically emotionally volcanic. This can be problematic if other members of your family don't desire the same level of intensity, particularly if they're seeking peace and quiet at home. If this is the case your needs are directly opposed to your loved ones', which may not concern you, but could result in dramatic changes in your personal life. This is also a problem because you've a deep sense of commitment to your personal relationships, and feel betrayed if others don't share this commitment. It's likely that your need for emotional intensity originates from an early childhood experience, probably linked with your mother or another strong woman figure. Your relationship with your mother is likely to be immersed with intense feelings, perhaps even stemming from a life-or-death situation. You may feel positively or negatively about your mother. Either way your feelings are likely to be strong. You're a resourceful person, and can rely on your own resources to solve most problems. You need to find a creative outlet for your intense nature, something that will totally absorb your attention. Perhaps you would enjoy property development, or renovating your house. You're a powerful person with leadership skills, and a need for a challenge.
Moon Hard Saturn
Much of your adult life has been spent trying to overcome the difficulties that you faced as a child in your home and family. Astrologically speaking this is because the planet Saturn is contacting the Moon in your birth chart. Ancient astrologers believed that the planet Saturn had a malefic influence in a person's chart. In your case your early home life has been adversely affected. The extent of this effect depends largely on other influences in your chart. In some cases it can mean that your childhood home lacked spontaneity and warmth, but was well-organised and structured in a manner which helped you to feel supported and safe. However, it's more likely that circumstances in your family led to you feeling that home was a cold and unsupportive environment. This could have been one painful incident such as the loss of a family member, or it could have been the result of years of hardship. It's possible that one of your parents, perhaps your mother, was a strict and severe influence, unable to show you the affection that you felt you deserved. As a result it's likely that you're somewhat shy as an adult, lacking in self-confidence and sensitive to criticism. You may be emotionally reserved. Perhaps you have chosen at some stage in your life to live in solitude rather than risk the lack of affection and warmth that you felt as a child. As you grow older and work on your self-esteem you can build a lasting maturity. You develop an inner self-confidence which helps you build firm foundations in your life and achieve your ambitions, as well as loving family relationships. You work solidly to build yourself a secure and firm footing, earning the respect of those around you. You can succeed in business and in your career, particularly through being noticed by your superiors. You may also benefit through investments in land and property.
Mercury Soft Uranus
The planets Mercury and Uranus are connected in your birth chart indicating that you've an incisive and ingenious mind. You enjoy progressive topics in your studies and your communications with other people. In fact you may be ahead of your time in your thoughts, ideas and opinions. You're generally successful in your studies because you're able to communicate your original ideas with ease. Creativity and intuition are second nature. You're an independent thinker, who likes to be given the freedom to express your ideas. In fact woe betide anyone who tries to keep you quiet or change your mind. You make impulsive decisions, some would say rash, but generally speaking you tend to land on your feet. Your projects tend to reflect your individual flair, and stand out from the rest of the class or society. Writing, publishing, advertising, science, astrology and electrical affairs may all be of interest, although any unusual subject will catch your attention.
Venus Soft Uranus
The planets Venus and Uranus are connected in your birth chart indicating that you value freedom and individuality in your most intimate relationships. In fact you're determined to be recognised as an individual by your primary partner, sometimes to the extent that you won't allow anyone to curb your sense of freedom. You're attracted to an unusual, active or lively partner, rather than someone staid. For this reason your primary partner is likely to be inventive, extraordinary or involved in an unusual occupation. This isn't everyone's idea of an ideal partner, but it suits you. You seek spontaneity and intellectual stimulation from your primary relationship. Depending on other influences in your chart, commitment isn't a major part of your vocabulary, and can be something that you tend to avoid, preferring to be "footloose and fancy free". It's likely that you're afraid of losing your independence, or perhaps you simply don't like the confines of a conventional relationship. Fortunately you're likely to have many friends and potential partners. Your bright and magnetic personality attracts potential life partners like moths to a flame. You enjoy socialising and have a wide circle of friends, and believe that it's important that a life partner share your friendships. Your best friend should be your partner, as far as you're concerned.
Venus Hard Jupiter
The planets Venus and Jupiter are combining unfavourably in your chart suggesting that you are somewhat fickle in relationships. It's not that you don't love your partner, but rather that the grass appears greener in other fields. Of course your ability to form a long-lasting relationship depends on other influences in your chart, but this combination suggests that you can be somewhat self-centred. When the going gets tough you lose interest and wander off for greener pastures. The good news is that you're likely to benefit through your partner, despite this inconsistent side of your nature. You're optimistic and talented, full of joie de vivre and optimistic plans for the future, which are likely to be successful. You're also likely to be surrounded by supportive friends, and many potential life partners. You're seeking a relationship with someone who will expand your horizons. You love to share adventures, philosophies and goals.
Venus Soft Moon
You enjoy comfortable relationships with other people because of the favourable combination of the Moon and Venus in your birth chart. A charming and prudent person, you enjoy the company of other people, and they respond favourably. You're likely to enjoy success in your primary relationship, choosing someone who feels comfortable and companionable. You're also likely to benefit from your relationships with women.
Mars Hard Jupiter
The planets Mars and Jupiter are combining in your chart indicating that your hasty judgement can sometimes land you in hot water. You've plenty of motivation to achieve your goals, but lack proper judgement and discernment so that you miscalculate the amount of time and energy needed. You're careless and impulsive, and need to be careful of accidents which are a result of you rushing around and trying to achieve too much. The motto "you're your own worst enemy" could be one for you to reflect upon. Depending on other aspects in your chart you're also excessive in your generosity. You need to develop self discipline as your impulsiveness may be an impediment to reaching your goals. On a more positive note you're a lively and resourceful person, who delights in good health and keeping busy. Any course of action is entered into with confidence and determination to succeed, which you're likely to do despite the obstacles. You certainly know how to get yourself and other people motivated, and can make a good leader or manager. You may be particularly keen to travel, enjoying the stimulation of visiting other venues. You could direct your energy to achievement in sports, politics or travel. Once you have learnt to manage your resources you can achieve many of your goals.
Mars Soft Saturn
You're confident and diligent, capable of driving yourself and others to achieve your objectives. This is because the planets Mars and Saturn are connected in your chart. You're motivated by the thought of achievement, and are likely to succeed through hard work. In fact you're determined to succeed in certain areas of your life. Your will power can be indomitable, particularly when you've determined on a course of action. A good organiser, you need to be careful to work in co-operation with other people rather than try to force them to follow your methods. You may not realise that your own high standards are not achievable by everyone. Self discipline and hard work come easily to you, but not necessarily to other people. You're self-reliant and it's possible that you enjoy working on your own rather than with other people. On the whole your physique is strong, enabling you to endure long hours of work and concentrated effort. Therefore you're likely to feel frustrated on the occasions when your physical resources have run out. There's no need to worry because slowly and surely your energy and drive returns enabling you to continue on the road to success. You may also be closely involved with a legacy from your father or your father's family. Whether or not you benefit from this legacy depends on other influences in your chart.
Mars Hard Uranus
The unfavourable combination of the planets Mars and Uranus suggests that you're often restless and unsettled in your life. On the one hand you seem to have plenty of energy and drive, but on the other you're not always sure what to do with these qualities. Life also has a tendency to upset the very best of your plans through sudden and often inexplicable events. This can be exciting or disturbing depending on other influences in your chart. You're enthusiastic and highly self-motivated, if somewhat impulsive, enjoying adventure and new horizons. You're full of good ideas, and once you've determined on a course of action then you've plenty of motivation to see it through to successful completion. You're independent and prefer to be given plenty of room to carry through your own ideas in your own way. Be careful that a stubborn streak in your nature doesn't prevent your overall success. It's likely that some of your friends think that you're a little odd or eccentric, but you're not overly concerned. You like to make your own way in life, even if it does mean that you stand out from the crowd. Full of paradoxes, you can be both arrogant or charming, which can make you an effective salesperson.
Jupiter Soft Pluto
The planets Jupiter and Pluto are making contact in your chart indicating that you've the enthusiasm to live life to the fullest and are likely to succeed in reaching your objectives. You are inclined to think big when tackling projects, preferring the satisfaction that follows the accomplishment of large projects. Whatever project you tackle, you do it in a big way. It's likely that you've many goals in life because you're progressive and ambitious, eager to make the most of opportunities that come your way. What you lack in attention to detail you gain in enthusiasm and energy. You're a natural-born leader or teacher, inspiring others with your grand schemes. You may teach a classroom of adults or children, or on a one-to-one basis or you may simply inspire others by example. You need only to be careful to keep your ego under control, and to make sure that you're not too grandiose. You're likely to succeed in achieving many of your hopes and wishes.
Jupiter Opposite Midheaven
Jupiter is at the base of your horoscope suggesting that this archetype brings the poles of familiarity and foreignness, home and the world, feelings and concepts, instinct and culture together in your life. The urge to explore and question was shaped in the family environment. Religious and cultural beliefs, academic and innovative education, human values, hope and optimism in the future play a large role in your security and how this was accomplished in the family influences the degree of safety you feel in the world. As an adult your personal convictions, opinions, ethics and morals play a central role in feeling anchored enough to be yourself and strive for what you believe in.
Jupiter Hard Saturn
You can succeed in achieving your life goals, but only after you've learnt to balance the conventional and unorthodox sides of your nature. This is because the planets Jupiter and Saturn are making a difficult aspect in your birth chart. There is a dissident side to your nature, which you've difficulty keeping under control. Unrestrained enthusiasm can lead you into trouble. At other times there's an orthodox side which is overly cautious, causing you to hesitate unnecessarily when action is required. Finding the right balance is hard work. Generally speaking you're a poor judge of when to take action and when to wait patiently. As a result you're likely to suffer financial loss if speculating in the business or financial world. You would also do well, if possible, to steer clear of lawsuits. On a positive note when you can blend the two opposing forces you're capable of great things. You can enjoy success in self-employment or be a valued member of a team, particularly in the business world. Once a balance is achieved you're sure of achieving your objectives in life.
Jupiter Soft Neptune
What an idealist you are! It's doubtful that life would ever live up to your high expectations or that you could achieve all that you dream of. This is because the planets Jupiter and Neptune are connected in your chart. Don't despair. You may be idealistic, but you're also talented and possibly inspirational in some aspect of your life. As a result you're likely to achieve many of your hopes, but not all of them, and perhaps prove to be an inspiration to other people. Possibly you've a talent for music or the arts, or perhaps you're a gifted teacher or philosopher. You're certainly compassionate. Whatever your creative talent, your active imagination needs a positive outlet, one that can inspire you and perhaps other people. You're capable of reaching for the stars, as long you acquire the self-discipline needed to develop your abilities. Your spiritual beliefs may also play a prominent role in helping you achieve your ambitions.
Jupiter Sextile Neptune
"Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal." This quotation by author Ralph Vaull Starr could be the theme of your life right now. It is a time for dreaming, for reflection and for making the most of any opportunities that arise to enable you to follow your dreams.
Saturn Hard Neptune
The planets Saturn and Neptune are combining in your chart suggesting that you've difficulty achieving your career ambitions. It's likely that you're a highly creative individual, but that you either lack the confidence to follow your true path, or the ability to make your dreams a reality. This doesn't necessarily mean that you aren't successful in your career, but rather that something is missing. It could be that you're dissatisfied with your career choice, because you're not following your true vocation. It's also possible that you enjoy your work, but aren't being paid well, which leads to frustration and disappointment. No matter how much other people urge you to stand up for your rights, you believe that you're not in a position to do so. The problem may be that you've difficulty stepping back and appropriately assessing all of your options. You lack the confidence to pave your own professional path, afraid to leave the security and comfort of your current job, or you're too busy chasing rainbows to manage your career. At some stage in your life you're forced to learn to believe in yourself, to find the right mix of creativity and practicality. Once you've made steps along this process you gain the confidence to continue. Like a child learning to walk for the first time, you're soon off and running.
Saturn quincunx Neptune
With Saturn Quincunx Neptune, adjustments in your life are mediated by the Angels Kafziel and Tamiel. Kafziel is the Angel of memory, solitude, and tears. Together these Angels put you on the path of personal integrity as surely as you follow one thought with another.
Your slow growth of understanding could be seen as a weakness. However, your path is one of steady, almost certain forward progress. You analyze and consider each decision and each new idea. In this way every step is firm and solid, not tentative or half-hearted.
Intelligent activity becomes part of your nature. Intelligent activity involves the skillful use and application of knowledge, so you must first gain knowledge before you can apply it effectively. Kafziel and Tamiel work in concert in your life by first supplying the means to learn, and then aiding your mind through dreams or visualizations of how to use the information you have gained.
As you allow your Angels into your life, you gain the capacity to maintain hope in the face of seeming disaster. You discover that even in the most difficult circumstances, you have Angelic protection, and you can find a way to work your way out of the problem.
These Angels help you learn how to manage pain. When you or someone else experience severe physical or emotional pain, your Angels provide the means for relieving its severity, as well as providing the path to resolving it altogether.
Zadkiel and Tamiel provide dreams to help you through life's difficulties. You have tenacity of spirit, and your Angels support its use. Sometimes you will have a conscious idea, and you work step by step to make that dream a reality. Other times dreams provide very direct messages about your life. Either way, your mental strength is a special ally throughout your life.
Saturn soft Mars
A favourable combination of the planets Saturn and Mars indicates that you're likely to rise to power in your profession, but the road to success requires hard work and self-discipline. Depending on other influences in your chart you could excel in business, military occupations, construction work, industry, manufacturing, or official government work. A career in business could also be rewarding, particularly self-employment.
Saturn Hard Pluto
The combination of the planets Saturn and Pluto in your chart suggests that you're an ambitious, insightful and powerful person, but that you've some difficulty in achieving your ambitions. This could either be that you're overpowering in your attempts to pursue your ambitions, thereby alienating other people. This is particularly true in your relationships with anyone in authority. You don't take kindly to being ordered around by anyone. On the other hand you could also experience moments when you feel overpowered by a hostile world, uncertain of achieving your aims and objectives. The problems are likely to be rooted in your childhood, in which you struggled to find your own individual path. Perhaps one or both of your parents was particularly powerful, even violent during your childhood. It's also possible that your parents, or society's rules, couldn't handle such a powerful young personality. Either way you're likely to make a powerful impact on your friends, family, colleagues and loved ones, both as a child and an adult. At times you might be surprised by the extent of other people's reactions to your presence and opinions. You may even surprise yourself by your own reactions to some circumstances. Authority is likely to be a continuing source of difficulty in your life, as you attempt to find the right balance between your own individual rights, and those of the community. Of course there are many instances when these two rights coincide, but you're more likely to find yourself involved in the clashes. As a result you could be a powerful leader, perhaps in the government or as an executive or politician. You can be a powerful leader, but first you must learn to use your unique insights for positive purposes. The 19th Century author John Stuart Mill said in his work On Liberty (1859) that, "Everyone who desires power, desires it most over those who are nearest to him, with whom his life is passed, with whom he has most concerns in common, and in whom any independence of his authority is oftenest likely to interfere with his individual preferences". Herein lies a key to your chart. You've the ability to succeed in your ambitions, but first you must learn how to deal with the balance of power in your life, respecting both your own and other people's rights to succeed.
Neptune semisextile Ascendant
With Neptune forming a semisextile to your Ascendant, you naturally benefit from Tamiel and your other Angels, although you may experience both - the rose and its thorns - in the process. You are provided with opportunities throughout your life to build a working relationship with angelic presence and awareness. You are susceptible to influence from the environment and other people, and you benefit from meditation and affirmations that your Angels are always with you. As you practice contacting your Angels, you find that you can identify and choose the most promising opportunities quickly and easily, and thus benefit from them more fully.
You have a natural capacity to channel or to use other psychic skills. If you open yourself to any and all energies, you may feel drained or even assaulted by negativity. Instead, you can enlist the help of your Angels to develop suitable 'shields,' so that positive influences come into your sphere easily, while destructive energies are rebuffed before they can affect your emotions or physical body.
Your imagination can be used for storytelling, music, or creative arts of all kinds. Your talent flows from a deep well of spiritual energy, and your Angels aid you by keeping the flow steady and constant. Even when you cannot come up with a good idea, your Angels are at work building the next idea for you.
Your devotion to other people is noteworthy. As you develop your own protection, you find that you can extend yourself to others by choice, and you discover your energy is virtually limitless.
Neptune Soft Pluto
The planets Neptune and Pluto both move slowly through the zodiac, and therefore any connection between the two planets affects birth charts for a short period of time. You were born in such a time. This combination in your chart means that you're interested in opportunities to bring about fundamental change to human values. You are aware of injustices in society and, depending on other influences in your chart, may prefer to fight against them rather than sit back and accept the ills of society. Your creative urges may be linked to politics, or expressing your political views through the arts or spiritual or charitable organisations.
Neptune trine Midheaven
With Neptune forming a trine to your Midheaven, your natural psychic ability provides creative imagination and bolsters your self-esteem. It also sets up the opportunity for self-doubt that in turn tests your core beliefs and allows for creative change.
When the world showers you with glamour and other people try to convince you of realities that don't mesh with your own perceptions, your Angels can help you to express compassion for others, while also understanding your own motivations.
On the plus side, Tamiel supports your receptivity, empathy and sensitivity. Awareness of Mind is enhanced through Angelic associations, and your contemplative nature expands as you explore your own ego. This may sound odd, as many spiritual belief systems indicate that ego is to be avoided or quelled. However, if you go through ego issues instead of around them, you are better able to resolve them.
Tamiel also supports you by revealing your greatest mental and emotional weaknesses, so that you may resolve them. For example, you may be susceptible to deception, either from others or through yourself. Your Angels help you to perceive deception and to dispel it.
You have a powerful imagination that can be utilized in the search for self-awareness and spiritual consciousness, and your Angels are there to help you.
Pluto sextile Neptune
With Pluto Sextile Neptune, your life is enriched with opportunities presented by the Angels Metatron and Tamiel. Metatron has been called the King of Angels and the Chief of the Ministering Angels. This Angel is thought to be the pillar of fire the Jews followed in their exodus from Egypt. He is a certain link between you and the divine. Metatron's association with Tamiel, the Angel of Primordial Energies, is extremely powerful.
You undoubtedly experience supernatural events and conditions during your life. Your Angels provide this resource and can help you refine it. Psychic impressions and intuition become second nature to you after a while. You learn to act on intuition in much the same way you would act on advice from your accountant.
One facet of the path of personal integrity for you involves purification of your soul. This means elevating your thoughts above petty jealousy and anger. While you may never overcome negative thinking entirely, working with your Angels will lift you up, step by step, to thoughts of compassion and love. Love overcomes fear and compassion overcomes hatred.
One possible expression of this aspect of your birth chart is that you have at least one extrasensory ability. At first you may experience some confusion in interpreting psychic and intuitive information as it comes to you. You are likely to overcome this confusion once you develop the necessary comprehension of your abilities and thus develop your psychic skills. Meditation each day allows your Angels to contact you more directly to help in this area.
You have the power of a storyteller combined with the wisdom of a seer. You could write fiction or dramatic scripts, and your poetry can become the liquid fire of inspiration and soothing balm for the soul.
NorthNode Soft Sun
The North Node and the Sun are combining in your chart to suggest that you need to overcome any inhibitions which stand in the way of you achieving your purpose. You'll feel most joyful when you're fully expressing yourself. It's possible that events will force you to come to terms with your identity in order that you learn to express your fullest potential.
NorthNode Soft Mars
The North Node and the planet Mars are combining to suggest that you're being challenged to become assertive and focussed on your personal goals. Independence and self-confidence are keys to your growth in this life, and you may find yourself thrust into leadership roles.
SouthNode Soft Uranus
You've a tendency to seek excitement and scatter your energies, because of the combination of the South Node and the planet Uranus. You've many unique talents, but need to develop discipline in order to make the most of them.
SouthNode Soft Sun
The South Node and the Sun are combining in a way that is inhibiting you from expressing your true potential. You're being challenged to fully express yourself with integrity and with respect for other people's rights. Perhaps you've a tendency to overpower other people, and now you need to do find the right blend of asserting your own rights and listening to other people, in order that you achieve your purpose. You would do well to remember the adage, "There's no time like the present", as you may have a tendency to avoid facing problems and obstacles that stand in the path of your success.
SouthNode Soft Mars
The South Node and the planet Mars are combining to suggest that you may experience difficulty being assertive and finding the drive to succeed, or alternatively you may have a tendency to misdirect your energies. Your current life lesson is to express your energy positively and assertively. Your talent for independent action needs to be developed so that you can achieve your purpose.
Chiron quincunx Moon
This aspect has heightened your ability to be an instinctively keen judge of others. You can sense subtle moods, feelings and emotions as others experience them, that the average observer would miss. You have always been very sensitive, even as a child, and this meant that you were easily hurt by what others said and felt, even if the words and feelings were not directed towards you. As a result, you could be carrying around a lot of pain, deep within, and part of your healing will require you to release the pain, and forgive those who hurt you (whether it was intentional or unintentional).
Because you are so sensitive, you hate it when people are less than candid with you. You can pick up a lot from cues, such as from body language, or passive aggressive behaviour, and you would much rather have someone state what they don’t like than to have to read it from the signals they send. As a child, you might have received a lot of mixed messages, and what they said to you without words hurt you more than anything that was verbalized. You can draw others out, though, and get them to say what is really on their mind. This can be a big asset in helping others. (It is hard to solve a problem if the person does not clearly explain what needs to be resolved.)
It is not always easy for others to get close to you; however, perhaps it is because you can see right through pretences. But also, because of acute sensitivity; many people with this aspect have taken the path of insulating themselves from people after a while or at least become very selective about whom they deal with. The danger is that you can close off your heart if you insulate yourself too much. The most negative expression of this aspect is a fearful view of the world in which everyone is seen as being deceptive. But, as with any Chiron aspect, this condition need not develop and can be changed when you learn to distinguish between someone expressing different levels of self (being inconsistent), as contrasted with someone being purposely deceptive.
On a plus side, your sensitivity can give you an almost instinctive sense of good timing, as if you sense all the currents going at any moment.
Chiron trine Venus
This aspect gives you a unique style, your own manner of expression, which can truly be said to be one-of-a-kind. One of Venus’ areas is the aesthetic sense, and yours is unique, and can be said to be quite different from that of the average person. You are able, for example, to see beauty in places that others do not, and you find it very difficult to appreciate superficial beauty. Being different in this way may have caused you some anguish growing up, as you may have been ridiculed or even ostracized.
As an adult, you continue to have your own perception of beauty, but healing from the wound for you is, at least in part, being able to use the emotions and feelings you experienced as creative tools. Many with this aspect try their hand at some form of artistic expression, and whether only for yourself, or on a larger scale, you should be doing this as well, as it will help you to heal and share your unique perceptions with others.
A very positive effect of this aspect is that you are able to focus on things others miss, or things people take for granted, and see the beauty there. If you choose to go into the arts in some manner, your style of expression has that ‘little something extra’ that can make your creations truly memorable.
Another side to this aspect is that, as a child, you were not allowed to bemoan your fate, to suffer all the way through your pains. You were expected to bounce back, to not let things get to you. Part of healing your wound here is to go back and experience your pains again, and work your way all the way through them to connect with them to heal. But this aspect did develop within you an innate ability to bounce back, whether from a minor setback or a major one and when you do you come back having learned a great deal and become a stronger person, as well. These experiences not only teach you, but they give you the knowledge to teach other people who are going through similar experiences how to get through them.
Chiron opposition Uranus
Between 1952 and 1989 Chiron exactly opposed Uranus forty-one times, and was in orb of opposition for just about everyone born during those 47 years. Thus, it is more of a generational influence than an individual one.
Historically, you can see that this aspect is tied into the accelerated pace of scientific advancement during the second half of the Twentieth Century. Actually, one of the problems is that science is making discoveries faster than they can be integrated into society; even faster than proper safeguards can be devised for our protection from side effects and from the discoveries themselves.
This same ‘vibration’ is, in many ways, a part of the nature of individuals who have this aspect. There is a thirst for the new, for discovery, for experiences, that often outweighs the taking of any precautions. Others dare not try to curtail your freedom, the consequences may not be pleasant. The urge for independence can be so strong that it can create difficulties in relationships. The only relationships that truly last for someone with this aspect is one where each person is given a lot of space to be themselves, in truth, it is difficult to find someone sufficiently secure to give a partner that much freedom. It does give a real spirit, though.
The wound of the whole generation, though, can be summed up in the words, ‘fallen heroes’. For thousands of years, people had heroes to worship, people to look up to as almost godlike. But this generation has seen all of its heroes fall, or show very unheroic sides, or in one way or another, prove they are just like everyone else. As a result, your generation has had a wound that each person must learn to heal in his/her own way, but the lesson is to become one’s own hero to become the person you would like to look up to and respect.
Chiron trine Midheaven
The Midheaven is how you are seen by the public, and is what has often been called the ‘ego ideal’ that is, what role you want to strive to become. This is why it is tied in to career, think of the child who speaks about what he ‘wants to be when he grows up’ and you’ll have a good idea of the Midheaven energy.
Chiron trine this point shows that you have a knack for finding loopholes, ways around the status quo, that you can think outside the box, and use this ability in your career. You can also tune into the weaknesses easily of authorities.
You could work well in a field where you are called upon to do some healing in some way; where you find what is out of kilter and offer suggestions to correct it. It also shows that your career will go through several changes or incarnations in your life, because the image you have for what you want to become will go through many changes throughout your life. Because it is a trine, however, these will almost always be welcome changes as you grow and evolve. Unless you can find a career which allows you to grow and evolve, in which case you may be able to stick with one thing, such careers are difficult to find.
