Birth Chart Report for Quentin Tarantino
Your Sun Sign
Sun in Aries
Aries represents the stamina to challenge what is not right but also the spirit to forge what is. Aries is the warrior; in a spiritual sense the one who has the courage to uphold his or her principles and the one who is the soldier of the true self. With Sun in Aries your labours are to find the courage of your convictions and the strength to sanction them. What is honourable about you is the ability to challenge what is not right, to compete for what is and find the courage to face the confrontation. When you are in touch with your honour, you are capable of summoning the strength to act with bravery and champion what is noble. You are invigorated when challenged and your spirituality develops through withstanding the moral and ethical trials of life.
Your spirit cherishes its independence and welcomes challenges. You enjoy creative projects, pioneering new experiments and exploring unchartered territory. Being on the starting line you are animated by the spirit of adventure and brought to life by challenges and possibilities. Innocence and naïveté are helpful attributes as you are able to put the disappointments and failures of any project behind you and get on with a new idea or project. Taking a chance, exploring new frontiers and risking the security of what is not known demand an act of courage. Therefore you are likely to be a pioneer in your profession, perhaps breaking new ground in your chosen career, or perhaps by choosing a career on the cutting edge. You are a self-starter and therefore starting your own business, working on your own or any form of self-employment may appeal.
It is a combination of toughness and affection that allows you to be a firebrand on one hand and an idealist on the other. The compound of these two attitudes creates an advocate who champions the underdog, the conqueror who liberates the oppressed and the hero who scores the winning goal. In an etymological context courage is connected to the heart, since the ancient notion linked the force of will and character to the heart. Braveheart personifies your gift of courage. Like the heart which pumps blood through the body, your energetic spirit vitalises your soul in the world to be brave and claim what is rightfully yours. While you bravely face the worries and burdens of everyday life your alter ego, Captain Courageous, is active in the world championing the oppressed and liberating the downtrodden. To find your vitality and spirit and to feel soulful in the world you need to strive to find the qualities of assertiveness, bravery, enthusiasm, independence, initiative and inspiration on your vocational path.
Your Moon Sign
Moon in Taurus
With your Moon in Taurus your need for security and stability is high. In your daily life you would prefer a stable environment where you can settle and not be rushed or surprised. It is important to know what you are meant to be doing; therefore in any job it would be necessary for you to take care of these needs. You also need to feel valued in your work and that you are providing an essential service through your tasks, no matter how routine or repetitive they are. Therefore income is an important consideration for you, as it is necessary to feel that you are able to support yourself as well as speak up when you feel it is time for a raise or promotion. Since you are committed to the long term, you need to proceed along the career path step-by-step. You also need tangible results in what you do and be able to monitor your own development.
From an early age you were instinctually drawn to nature and content to be surrounded by its natural beauty. To care for your soul in the tasks of an everyday life, you need to be comfortable and secure in what you do and where you are, involved with the sensual aspects of life. You need to nurture your self through what you do; if you do not find this security through your daily life you might find yourself drawn to food and pleasure as a replacement.
If you are drawn to the nurturing professions then your Moon in Taurus is instinctually drawn to a hands-on sensual approach, such as massage, aromatherapy, chiropractic work, nursing etc. You may be drawn to your vocation due to sensual urges. For instance if your particularly enjoyed the sense of touch, you might consider massage; if it were sight, you may be drawn to design or if it were taste, you might have an innate flair for food preparation and cooking.
Your Rising Sign
Ascendant in Aries
Your destiny is to actively seek your purpose in life, taking the initiative rather than waiting until circumstances are comfortable.

You value challenges, particularly those that test you physically and mentally. It's likely that your purpose is linked to taking the initiative, starting something new that benefits other people. Your intellect is keen, and you're full of ideas. All of these traits can propel you on a journey which is meaningful and of true worth. Money does not provide you with happiness. If you seek projects for the sake of making money only, then you are likely to become dissatisfied with your work, profession and perhaps with life. It is important with this Ascendant that you continue to seek new challenges, rather than stay in a situation because it provides material comfort only. Your soul wants to soar. Money may provide you with the freedom to experience life to its fullest potential, but you must ensure that you move forward when you hear that still small voice calling. Meditation may help you slow down long enough to listen to your true calling. If you would like to focus on a positive affirmation connected to money then with your Aries Ascendant you could use this one from “Creating Money – Keys to Abundance”by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer “I change the world around me by changing myself”.

Most importantly, develop a meaningful life philosophy and embrace music, art and colour. Your capacity to give selflessly is second to none, but you need to give to yourself too. Once you embrace your spiritual centre, you will find wisdom.

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

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.

Mercury in 12th House

This is a time to immerse yourself in the joys of the beauty of nature, the minds of great mystics or the workings of something that deeply fascinates you. If you have a heart-felt project that you have been longing to focus on then you can now organise your schedule so that you can concentrate for long periods of time. Some may call this a period of confinement. This may well be the case. Think of a woman who is confined during pregnancy. She is birthing something new.

Pluto in 6th house
In your horoscope Pluto is in the domain of the 6th house and your task is to find ways to express the archetype of the underworld and death in your daily life. While this may seem an ominous task change is an everyday part of our experiences. Reflect on how you might be able to bring this powerful force into the working sphere.
Mythologically Pluto resides below the visible world, surfacing infrequently. However when he does make his presence known, it is life altering. Therefore with Pluto in this sphere your work experience is transforming and confronting. Through work you are drawn into the deeper aspects of yourself in order to learn to trust yourself. The nature of Pluto is to reveal what is buried and it is consistent with this archetype to suggest that work is therapeutic by nature forcing you into a confrontation with the self. What is it you said you would never do? What is it you fear? Well with Pluto in the 6th house it is in the work sphere where you will confront these taboos. Quite literally you may work in an area that deals with what is unmentionable, secret or buried.
Professionally this gives you a depth of character. This may lead you into therapeutic careers, occupations that involve loss, death, transition, or employment which is intense. Like an archaeologist you like to peel away the layers to find the truth and therefore have a knack for research, crisis work or change management. You may also be involved with finance, especially the investment of other people's resources. Your best work is done in a crisis and therefore destiny may lead you into an occupation where your critical skills are needed to manage or advise. However what is very important is that you also are aware of your need for privacy and respect. You work well with others when you need to, but probably do better on your own.
Therefore you need to reflect on the nature of your vocation and become comfortable with the intense nature of work. You have a propensity to become fixated or obsessed with work detail and perhaps do work best in an intense way. You need to be vigilant that work does not consume you or abduct you away from your personal life. Because the work environment constellates your strength and conviction you often experience other colleagues or work mates being intimated by or envious of you. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to change this except to recognise their discomfort with your intensity and your commitment to truth. Certainly you cannot allow yourself to be disempowered by others' weaknesses. On the other hand you will also draw powerful and insightful people in your orbit who will change your attitudes to work. The sphere of work will offer you the opportunities to encounter your integrity and honesty, confronting you to be true to yourself.
;=====================================================================
NorthNode in 4th House
Your North Node is in the 4th house with the South Node being in the polarity of the 10th house. In your horoscope this is the axis that brings the private world and public life into focus. As an astrological opposition this alliance contrasts the inner and outer worlds and forces you into finding a meaningful balance between the two throughout the course of your life. Your natural tendency might find it easier to be in the world, be public and involved with your career path; however this astrological statement highlights the importance of the inner and private world. Hence a career theme might be the ongoing encounter between the stress of the outer world and finding enough time and space to engage with the demands of the inner world. In real terms this might be the tug of war between the career and the family, outer achievements and inner peace or the feeling of being successful versus the feeling of being settled.
Destiny points to the need to consciously create a strong and secure base before launching yourself professionally. It is important to recognise where your foundations stones are, as you will need a strong rock to build your career upon. Interestingly the effort placed in stabilising yourself, delving into your feelings and maintaining a supportive family life will promote your vocation. Ironically your outer world opens its arms to you as make the effort to develop your inner nature. Literally this might also suggest being successful at a career involving family, such as a family business, working from home or the promotion of familial products or values. Another variation on this theme might be real estate, home wares, or even a nurturing profession. However fate weaves her pattern the two threads of career and family are in the forefront of the fabric. In your case it is important to understand that innately you have a successful relationship with the world and what it has to offer when you are able to concentrate on building your nest and family life.
Chiron in 12th House
Relationships are delicately balanced at the best of times. A loving and sound relationship offers the opportunity for healing of emotional wounds from the past and personal growth and fulfilment. When two people relate in a loving way, working through emotionally difficult times then Chiron is working at its best. At times in relationship, one person may inadvertently trigger the other’s hurt feelings. These feelings may be left over from your childhood, or from a previous relationship. Either way your current relationship is an opportunity to relate differently. A loving union provides the chance to let go of the past and experience intimacy and true love now. This placement of Chiron in your Combined Chart indicates a strong subconscious connection. You are drawn to each other without really understanding why. This is your challenge. You need to understand this attraction before making a full commitment. If you are drawn to each other because you share a strong sense of empathy then this can be the basis for a meaningful relationship. However, if one of you feels sympathetic to the other’s dire circumstances in life, and wants to protect, or perhaps even subconsciously take advantage of the other, then this is a relationship to be viewed with caution. Either way this union does provide you both with an opportunity to face and heal deeply held wounds from the past. In some cases two people who have faced and risen above addictions can form a strong and supportive bond. Together you may discover a profound interest in the arts, music, poetry and other such pursuits, or in healing or spirituality. Together you may benefit from meditation and retreat, as long as you also take part in practical and earthy activities. It is important that this relationship does not become one of supporting each other’s addictions, wounds or need to permanently retreat from the world. This union needs to help one or both of you heal the past and move forward in a loving, safe and wholesome manner. As you find you own fulfilment, together you may work with other people, helping them to find peace and contentment.
Nodes
NorthNode in Cancer
You were born with the North Node in Cancer and the South Node in Capricorn implying that you are self reliant and disciplined, having inherited an innate sense of autonomy and authority. You are well suited to being responsible and adept at authoring the script of your own life. While you are very comfortable being on your own, providence pulls you in the opposite direction. Destiny waits in the opposite sphere of family and attachments and therefore your life path will challenge you to consider the importance of family, close attachments and bonds with loved ones. You need to be aware that the success of your vocation involves interdependence with those you love and protect. Your invitation is to stay close to home in order to be fulfilled. Therefore the dragon you battle is your own autonomous nature which can lead you into making executive decisions without consulting others. What works best for you is using your authority and innate leadership to direct others, especially those less skilled and more vulnerable than yourself.
Having inherited a strong tradition, you are in the position of initiating others into feeling that they belong, whether that is as a parent to your child, a counsellor to your client or a helper to a person in need. Vocationally your task is supported when there is a safe and secure work environment, preferably one in which you are in control. There is a preference towards a family environment and therefore you may attempt to transform your work environment into a familial one enveloping your work mates with concern and care. Familial issues are often involved in your vocation; an environment that has an extended family atmosphere, a family business, working from the home, following the vocational traditions and customs, especially on mother's side, or even vocations focused on family dynamics and issues. The North Node in Cancer is drawn to vocations which involve the family and its dependants: family care providers, family therapists, early childhood educators, day care workers, home services, all the domain of this nurturing sign. As long as you find an outlet for your sensitive feelings at work, you will feel fulfilled.
Building emotional and financial security in your vocation is very important. Both are interconnected and the more emotionally connected you are to your vocation; the more financially secure you feel. Emotional security in your personal life is a necessity in order to excel in the world, the greater the support systems the wider your playing field becomes. As long as these needs are fulfilled, and you feel emotionally supported and acknowledged there is no need to seek acknowledgement in the world beyond. But the trick is to let others support and nurture you.
Aspects
Sun Soft Mars
The Sun and the planet Mars come into contact in your chart meaning that you're hard working and energetic, able to tackle most of life's challenges with confidence and a positive attitude. A natural-born leader, you prefer taking the initiative, rather than sitting back and waiting for things to happen. You're courageous and like to take a few risks in life, particularly ones that satisfy your sense of adventure and provide an outlet for your boundless energy. Self-motivation comes easily and you find it difficult to accept the motto that "all good things come to those who wait". You prefer to tackle a project or problem head on rather than wait around for a solution. While confidence and initiative are positive traits, you do need to exercise some patience and caution. Knowing when to take risks and when to wait are both vital to a successful outcome in any project. As long as you find positive outlets for your enterprising nature, and don't act too impulsively you're likely to stride forth and succeed in achieving your life goals.
Sun soft Moon
This is a lovely aspect to have in your Birth Chart as it gives you a helping hand in life from a young age. In some ways you are charmed. When the Sun is making a positive aspect to the Moon, this means that you're likely to succeed in your life through promotion, prosperity, and help from powerful people. You're also likely to gain employment easily, and earn the respect of other people. Your health and vitality is good, helping you achieve your goals. You're attractive to other people, as they are intrigued by your personality. You are confident, and yet you are not egotistical. You attract people who help raise your position in society and assist you in achieving your goals.
Sun Hard Saturn
The Sun is making a difficult contact with the planet Saturn in your chart indicating that you have to face some hardships before achieving your life goals. It's possible that you had a difficult childhood, experiencing either emotional or financial troubles. Perhaps your father, or a father figure, was an imposing and restrictive force in your life.

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.

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.

This is likely to have been a problem when you were a child. Perhaps a teacher or a parent was critical of your ideas, or you were shy. Perhaps circumstances, such as financial loss or death, troubled your mind or prevented you from completing your education. Whatever the scenario, it's likely that you continue to be exposed to disappointments as you grow older. You seem to be subject to criticism and opposition, hindering your plans and communications with other people.

Mercury Hard Uranus

Although you've an active and intelligent mind, you've so many original thoughts and ideas that you find it difficult to express them. This is true for your verbal and written communications.

For these reasons you're likely to encounter problems in your early childhood education, particularly if you attend a school that has a traditional approach to education. You're more likely to shine in an education system which encourages independent and free thinking. At any age you're likely to react to authority figures, showing a defiant and audacious attitude. Perhaps you don't realise that you've a tendency to thrust your own radical thoughts and ideas onto other people, without listening to their own opinions. You wilfully defend your right to have different views and can fail to appreciate other people's points of view. You need to learn to respect all forms of communication and thinking.

In fact you may be ahead of your time in your thoughts, ideas and opinions. With a little patience and tolerance, you'll be successful in helping others understand your unique and innovative ideas.

"Lucky in love and money". This could be your personal motto because the favourable planets Jupiter and Venus are combining to shine good fortune on your relationships and finances. You're fun loving, generous and popular. With your sympathetic and kind nature, you've a talent for putting other people at their ease. You're optimistic and talented, full of joie de vivre. Therefore you're likely to be surrounded by supportive friends, and many potential life partners.

Venus Hard Uranus
The planets Venus and Uranus are combining unfavourably in your chart indicating that you're restless and often lack commitment in your personal relationships. This can lead to disappointments and complications in love and marriage, particularly in your early adult life. It's also possible that your roving eye can lead to scandal. You're wilful and often perceive your primary partnership as demanding too much time and effort, an obstacle to your freedom of self-expression. You seek spontaneity and intellectual stimulation from your primary relationship.

This isn't to say that you don't have many offers. Quite the contrary. Your bright and magnetic personality attracts potential life partners like moths to a flame, but you prefer to keep your options open rather than be pinned down. Depending on other aspects in your chart you may be satisfied with a gypsy-like approach to relationships. You may also like intrigue and secrecy in your relationships, perhaps even taking part in a secret organisation. However, if other influences are calling for commitment and permanency in a primary partnership, then you need to choose a partner who is able to give you plenty of freedom. You're more suited to an unconventional relationship. You also need to learn to compromise, restrain some of your wilder urges, and enjoy your partner's unique contribution to your life. It's possible that the restless side of your nature is more prominent in relationships which have formed through friendship or through fleeting attraction rather than through true love. With the right person, you're able to develop your talents and strengths in a positive and supportive relationship.

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.

Chiron opposition Pluto
Chiron and Pluto do not reach opposition often, but when they do they often continue that aspect for several years, creating what some call a sub-generation. In the past hundred years, they only were in opposition for one period, but everyone born from March 1961 through February 1966 have this aspect in their chart.
This aspect seems to express itself in one of two ways.
• In some natives it shows up as a great need to overcome some powerful inner hostility stemming from early childhood. This hostility may come from being constantly thwarted by parents, or from being a recipient of hostility from others in the environment. Whatever the cause, there are major lessons to learn about opening up, getting in touch with the inner rage, and then cleansing it once and for all from the system.
• In other persons, rather than anger, the expression is a need to win, to overcome obstacles and to beat any opponent. In both cases, you need to face the root of the hostility, or intensity, in order to bring about the needed healing.
It also gives a deep awareness of suffering, something you can put out of your mind but which never completely leaves you. I once read that we laugh at most jokes because it is a way to deal with the pain and suffering; we laugh because we can identify with the sorrow the object of the joke is experiencing and the laughter is a needed release.
Chiron opposition Pluto people often make excellent storytellers, and tellers of jokes, because of this powerful awareness.
Chiron sextile 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 shows that at some point when you were growing up, there was pain associated with what you wanted to be when you matured. It may be that you were made to feel that you had to find the right career and nothing else would do. Or it may be that some adults tried to force you into accepting the idea that you would never become anything important without working very hard at it, that nothing would ever come easy for you. In any event, on some level, it became extremely important that you find out what you want to do with your life, the role you want to play, and that you are sure it will be the ‘right objective.
This aspect also gives you the ability to help open doors for other people, to be the person that helps someone get their foot in the door if needed.
Chiron trine Neptune
This is an aspect in effect for many people. It gives the individual a tendency to take for granted that the dreams you dream are ideals that will lead to a whole life, and may not be consciously aware of how important these dreams are to you.
If, in childhood, you were allowed to dream and express the dreams, as an adult you will feel very comfortable exploring matters of alternate realities and ideals which could slowly change the world. On the other hand, if you were told in childhood to stick to the real world, the dreams you take for granted will be just the dreams instilled in you by others. To best understand yourself, you must take time to look at your deepest dreams and decide are they truly your own, or have you just taken the dreams of others and sacrificed your own?
This aspect enables you to sojourn beyond the present world into more spiritual realms to help you heal, and it would be advisable for you to take time on a regular basis for meditation, yoga, or other transcendental activities. In fact, it is necessary, if you are to make the best of living in the day-to-day world, that you have regular times where you get away from it, and so this aspect shows that you need to be sure to allow yourself time alone.
Some of your greatest inspirations will come during these ‘journeys’. Chiron trine Neptune person Alexander G. Bell came up with the idea for the telephone while on one of his ‘journeys’ outside of his day-to-day existence.
