Birth Chart Report for Sergei Bulgakov
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. Your life goals are linked to your Sun - its Zodiac Sign and its position in your chart. Contrary to popular belief, the Sun isn't the only planet to be considered in a person's chart, but it is an important component. The Sun gives you an indication of how you can shine in your life. You will feel truly alive when you're living the traits indicated by your Sun. Therefore it's likely that you will spend much of your life on a journey to self discovery, aiming to incorporate these traits into your life. Understanding the energy of your Sun is a good starting point to understanding yourself and your purpose in life.
The Sun is in the 2nd House
Your Sun is in the 2nd House of your birth chart meaning that you're the sort of person who spends much of your life exploring your personal values. It's important for you to have a set of values by which you can judge your own and others' lives, as long as you don't become too critical when either you or others fail to live up to your expectations. If you're too critical then you will find that your self-esteem suffers, as you worry about your own failures or others become fed up with your harsh attitude. In fact your self-esteem may also be tied up with your ability to handle your finances. Money, and the pleasures that it can afford, are attractive to you. You may expend much of your time and energy earning money in order to build yourself up, or to buy possessions that help you feel secure. The challenge is to value yourself no matter what are your external circumstances. However you're likely to benefit financially through generous benefactors, possibly your father or a member of your father's side of the family. You could also benefit financially through a career as a government official.
The Sun is in Leo
Your Sun is in the Zodiac Sign of Leo indicating that you're good-hearted, and have a sunny personality which shines in the company of others. In fact you love an audience, basking in the attention which comes with being centre stage. This does not necessarily mean that you want a public audience. Perhaps other influences in your Birth Chart indicated a more private personality, however; you do want to be the leading lady or man in your own life. Most of the time you do manage to attract the attention that you so keenly seek, as your enthusiasm and sense of fun has a contagious effect lighting a spark of fun and joy in those around you. Your generous nature also means that you're willing to share your abundant goodwill with others. You may also find yourself surrounded by children ready to join your playful games, for you're adept at bringing out the child in everyone. You're quick to admire the achievements of others and yet also expect others to admire your feats. It is here that you need to watch your step. There is always the danger that you will go over the top in your expectations, focussing excessively on yourself to the exclusion of others. Other people may not always be so keen to step aside and let you take centre stage. This can lead to some fiery exchanges in which you're forced to learn the lesson of humility. This is an important lesson, which if avoided can result in you hiding behind your pride. "Pride comes before a fall" could be a timely reminder. However, astrologically the Sun is said to be in its own rulership in Leo, emphasising the positive aspects of this placement. So on the whole your irrepressible sunny nature is close to the surface ready to delight another audience and radiate warmth to all who come in contact with you.
The Sun is Trine The 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.
The Sun is Conjunct Uranus
The Sun is making contact with the planet Uranus in your birth chart meaning that you're a highly-talented and unique individual, determined to carve your own destiny rather than follow traditional paths. You're brimming with original and innovative ideas, which you're eager to put into action. Your goals may change during the course of your life, but this doesn't concern you, as long as you've a range of options. Doggedly independent, you like to be given the freedom to explore your talents and to learn by your own mistakes. You respect other people's individual rights, and expect them to respect yours. It's not that you're selfish. Quite the contrary. Your goal is to use your talents and ideas for the benefit of other people, perhaps even the whole of humanity. You've strong will power and are a leader rather than a follower, refusing to bow to another person's will. Others may see you as arrogant, wilful and disruptive at times, but they are attracted to your electric personality. Like moths to a flame they are fascinated by your tremendous energy and the unique manner in which you view life. You often have flashes of intuition and are capable of sudden, decisive action, which can take other people by surprise. It's possible that you've inherited your talents from a male member of your family, in particular your father. It's likely that your father, or an important father figure, has had a marked effect on your life. Perhaps you were encouraged to break free of tradition in order to develop your interests, or perhaps the absence of a dominant male meant that you experienced a lot of freedom as a child. In some cases this influence can indicate a strong father figure against whom you rebel. Either way, it's your need to be treated as an individual that's paramount. Life is full of surprises and that's the way that you like it.
The Sun is Quincunx 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. As a child you may have felt imprisoned, unable to communicate your innermost thoughts and feelings. You may have been frightened to venture forth in the world. As an adult you may still have difficulty expressing yourself and at times feel that external circumstances are still somewhat onerous. You're fearful, worrying about the outcome of decisions and actions. On a positive note childhood difficulties can become the basis for adult wisdom, particularly if you're able to overcome your fears. As you grow older you learn that your natural reserve stands you in good stead, giving you the ability to stand back and assess situations. Your confidence grows enabling you to achieve your goals through attention to detail and hard work.
Jupiter
The planet Jupiter also tells you about your goals in life, in particular the areas in which you are likely to succeed. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, abundance and wisdom. Ancient astrologers believed that the planet Jupiter had a greatly beneficial effect on a person's life.
Jupiter is in the 2nd House
Jupiter is also in the 2nd House of your chart signifying that wealth and prosperity are yours for the asking. Like the King Midas character in the story, everything that you touch seems to turn to gold. You just seem to have the knack of knowing how to make money, and how to increase your earnings through investments. You may not even set out to make money, preferring to take a more philosophical attitude to certain work projects, nevertheless the project turns out to be a real money-spinner. Unlike the story character you're not greedy or miserly, but are generous with your money and your possessions. At some stage you may even become a wealthy benefactor of a worthy cause or individual. It's possible that other influences in your chart do indicate extravagance. If this is the case then you're likely to spend your money as soon as you make it, perhaps even going into debt in your enthusiasm to spend. Negative influences also mean that you need to be careful of losing your money through gambling and unwise investments. Ancient astrologers believe that the planet Jupiter has a beneficial effect in a person's birth chart meaning that you usually land on your feet when it comes to personal finances.
Jupiter is in Cancer
You've the planet Jupiter in the Zodiac Sign of Cancer in your birth chart indicating that you are an idealistic person, who has a strong humanitarian side to your nature. You want to take everyone under your wing, whether they be family members in trouble or victims of world disasters. You may feel the urge to travel overseas to take care of other people, possibly even becoming involved in a humanitarian or religious welfare group. It is also possible that you have a large family. If not your friends will become your family, and you've many friends. This depends on other influences in your birth chart. You're kind-hearted and popular and so attract friends from both the lower and higher echelons of society. Although you mean well, you do need to be wary of becoming too meddlesome in other people's affairs. You're likely to benefit from your connections with your loved ones, possibly through unexpected inheritances and legacies. Astrologically the planet Jupiter is considered to be in a favourable position in the sign of Cancer and therefore it is likely that you will achieve your goals.
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 7th House
The Moon is placed in the 7th House of your birth chart suggesting that your primary relationship plays a key role in your life, dominating your moods and actions. It's likely that you marry at a young age, but if not you put a lot of time and energy into searching for the right person to share your life. The life of the single person isn't an easy one for you and you can be quite restless in your endeavours to find a partner. If you're married then you're sensitive to the feelings of your partner and keen to put them at their ease. You're likely to either adapt your behaviour to please your partner, or to rebel against his or her influence. The influence is the same in that his or her behaviour is dictating your mood swings. The problem is that you can allow your primary relationship to be too dominating, sacrificing your own needs and desires to the other person. At worse, your partner is fickle and not worth the effort that you're expending. This is an extreme representation of the astrological influences. It's also likely that your partner is simply changeable and of an unsettled nature, seeking change and stimulation through travel and work. Therefore you simply need to reassess your priorities and to work towards a balance between loving compromise and self-assertion. This position of the Moon in your chart isn't favourable for legal conflicts. Therefore you should be wary of entering into any legal battles, because you could find yourself on the losing side. In ancient times the Moon was considered to be in a strong position when placed in the seventh house of a chart, meaning that you're in a strong position to achieve your personal ambitions.
The Moon is in Sagittarius
With the Moon in the sign of Sagittarius you've an emotional need for adventure and independence, and will feel all of the impatience of a horse being held on a tight rein if your adventurous nature is thwarted. This is despite the fact that you may be headed in the wrong direction. The destination doesn't really matter, for you've an instinctual urge for travel and exploring - any path will do, particularly when you feel the urge to escape from the stresses of daily life. Sometimes your explorations involve travelling around the globe, while at other times you're content to explore the academic halls of knowledge. Philosophy and religion may particularly appeal. Once your quest for mind-expanding knowledge is somewhat sated, you may seek to change from the role of enthusiastic student to inspiring teacher. Fun is also important. When feeling under stress, you like nothing more than to go out and enjoy yourself. Anything which offers light relief will do. This can range from discussing the philosophical side of life over a cup of tea with a friend, to taking up a new hobby or taking flight to distant lands.
The Moon is Sesquisquare Neptune
The Moon is making a difficult aspect to the planet Neptune in your birth chart indicating that you've a sensitive nature, and are prone to spending long periods of time in solitude in the safety of your home. Sometimes you thoroughly enjoy your own company, but at other times you can feel somewhat despondent and confused, tired and caught in a web of inexplicable emotions. The problem may be that you're unrealistic in your expectations of yourself and your loved ones, idealising them only to be disillusioned when they fail to live up to your expectations. A more realistic approach can be helpful. You're often confused about your direction in life, wondering if you'll ever fulfil your dreams. Your home needs to be your haven from the world because you feel overwhelmed by the harsh realities of the world, and you need to shut away. If this isn't possible then it's likely that you'll be distressed. Depending on other influences in your chart it's possible that you spend long periods living in a fantasy world. Family members may have stories about your daydreaming ways as a child, which continue well into adulthood. It's also possible that your loved ones feel the need to bring you back down to earth, believing that this will help you cope with the world. Nevertheless you have learned to trust your own instincts, telling you of a need to escape somewhere to dream, even if it's only one room. In this case a room with a beautiful view would definitely appeal to your aesthetic nature. It's likely that your relationship with your mother, grandmother, or an important woman, has played a key role in your life, positively or negatively. On the negative side it's possible that this mother figure demanded that you ignore your sensitive nature, turning your back on your artistic and spiritual gifts. On the other hand perhaps she cosseted you as a child and adolescent, fanning your unrealistic view of the world. Another scenario could have been that your mother was unwell, or regularly adopted a victim-like approach to life, which forced you into the role of caretaker at a young age. Whatever the scenario in your childhood, the outcome is likely to be your own struggle to face your responsibilities while still finding time for your spiritual, artistic, or contemplative needs. It's possible that this same woman, or another woman, could have encouraged you to develop the imaginative side of your nature. Perhaps this woman had artistic or spiritual gifts, or encouraged your own talents. Whatever the scenario, it's likely that you've an idealised or distorted picture in your mind of this woman, which affects your adult relationships with your loved ones. Your lesson is to learn to balance your needs for artistry, spiritual pursuits or moments of quiet contemplation with the practical, and very-real, demands of the mundane. This is when you are most likely to appreciate the soothing nature of your home. Your house may also be a restful haven for your loved ones, because you've a flair for creating a peaceful environment. You've the ability to listen with sensitivity to other people's problems and plans, or to create a beautiful environment with artistic ornaments, soothing music and indoor plants and flowers. Perhaps you also have artistic talents, which can be displayed in your home. You may find a great sense of satisfaction in living close to water, or surrounded by nature.
The Sun is Opposite The Midheaven
Your identity is intricately linked with your family. As a young child your family, in particular your father, played a prominent role in influencing your personality, decisions, values and all facets of your life. Depending on other aspects of your birth chart this could have been a positive or negative experience. Either way you see yourself as part of a family system. Whereas friends and colleagues may have struck out on their own path early in life, you are more likely to have stayed close to home and hearth. Even if you moved out of the family home, it is likely that you stayed in the neighbourhood or in close touch with family members. Quite simply family is of utmost importance in your life. All that you achieve is likely to be as a direct result of the positive, and perhaps negative, influences of your experiences growing up in the family home. As an adult you are likely to find a home and start a family of your own, as this is more important to you than establishing a career, travelling, or other such public adventures. You may be a private person, preferring to gather a few close friends or family members in your own home. Even if you enjoy social and professional forays you are still likely to require a safe haven - your home. You are likely to shine at any family occasion, and may prefer to work from home or be the household manager.
Uranus is Opposite The Midheaven
This placement of the erratic planet Uranus can work in numerous ways. In some cases it indicates an unsettled early family life, which continues to affect your adult life choices. Perhaps your family was itinerant. You may, or may not, enjoy the lack of stability in your home, depending on other aspects of your nature. This placement could also indicate that you are the odd one out in your family, or that you take after your father’s side of the family, which is slightly eccentric or highly intellectual. You, or your father, may have broken away from the family bonds, determined to express your authentic self. One way or another your home life is likely to be busy, with an unconventional household. You enjoy having the freedom to express your individual nature in your home, whether that means decorating your home in just the way that you like, or neglecting the household completely in favour of other stimulating pursuits. Your pursuit of freedom may also affect your choice of career and life partner. You may need a job, or a spouse, that gives you plenty of room to spread your wings.
