LIFE GOALS

The Sun

Just as the Sun is the centre of the earth's Solar System, so does the Sun play a vital role in your life on earth.

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.

HOME

The Moon

Astrologers from different schools of thought allocate varying meanings to the Moon in a birth chart. Ancient astrologers say that the Moon changes its nature according to its phases, and merely passes on impressions from other planets rather than directly influencing a person's life. However, modern astrologers tell us that the Moon depicts a person's roots, our home and family. They say the Moon also shows our habitual nature or subconscious patterns of behaviour which stand in the way of achieving our life goals. While the Moon can show us our strengths, it can also depict our weaknesses which need to be overcome in order to be successful in life.

The Moon is in the 5th House

The Moon is placed in the 5th House of your birth chart suggesting that pleasurable pastimes play a prominent role in your life giving you a joie de vivre which is infectious. Sometimes your tendency to play rather than work can stand in the way of you holding down a regular job. Responsibilities simply don't seem to hold the same appeal as play. On a more positive note you're fun-loving and enjoy the company of other people, particularly young people and children. Others respond to your sense of fun and you don't have to look far for company in your playful escapades. These can include fun-filled outings to pleasure parks, evenings at the theatre or a good old-fashioned picnic. You never seem to run out of ideas. You also enjoy the company of the opposite sex and romantic outings. It's possible that you earn your money through a job connected with amusements or with children. Perhaps you also have many of your own children, who take up quite a bit of your time and give you a good excuse to go out and play. You also like games of chance and speculation. For this reason you need to be wary of tendencies to get carried away with gambling.

The Moon is in Virgo

With the Moon in the sign of Virgo you love to have a sense of order in your life, and can often be found putting things straight. "A place for everything, and everything in its place" would be a good motto for you. For this reason you enjoy schedules, catalogues, diaries and calendars - all of which help put order into life. Depending on other aspects in your birth chart, you simply can't relax in dirty or untidy surroundings, and become quite agitated until something is done. Be wary of your need to be a perfectionist, and your criticism of both yourself and others for not measuring up to your own high standards. Another aspect of your life is that you also enjoy the adage a healthy mind equals a healthy body, and will go to some lengths to make sure that your mind and body are both healthy, often adhering to a strict schedule for your hygiene, diet and relaxation. In fact you've a good understanding of the power of the mind to affect the health of the body, and the discipline to keep fit and eat well. If other aspects in your birth chart are influential, then you may have the awareness of the importance of good health, but lack the discipline to adhere to a strict schedule. Nevertheless you'll develop this discipline over the course of your life. You may enjoy a job which gives you an outlet for these skills, or it may be enough for you to take care of family members and friends in your daily life.

Pluto is Opposite The Midheaven

The planet Pluto here indicates that your home environment may be a challenge. It's possible that you've been affected by early childhood traumas, either by one particularly disturbing event in your family life, or by a series of upheavals. Perhaps one of your parents was an overwhelming, powerful figure in your life or had a powerful affect on your life for other reasons. This is likely to be your father, or a member of your father's family. As a result your adult home life is likely to reflect your childhood problems. Perhaps you're constantly changing homes, or perhaps you simply struggle to feel at peace in your home. You need to be careful that you don't recreate your childhood traumas in your home environment by living with someone who is abusive. Your challenge is to assert your own rights within your family without resorting to aggression, or without becoming the victim of someone else's aggressive behaviour or perpetuating any trauma. Your childhood experiences can be a source of wisdom as you mature, enabling you to form a strong foundation in your own life, and for family members. This placement can also influence your choice of career. For this reason you may work in a field such as psychology, aged care, real estate, or politics.
