Birth Chart Report for Shiv Kumar Sharma
Your Sun Sign
Sun in Capricorn
From the beginning of life you might have felt responsible, not just for yourself, but for the people and environment around you. With your Sun in Capricorn you have a heightened sense of what is right and wrong, even perhaps an over-developed sense of guilt. Like the mountain goat whose gaze is on the pinnacle of the mountain, your peak represents the summit of excellence always striving to reach the highest point in yourself. Being so acutely aware of what should be done and what constitutes an offence, you endeavour to always do the right thing, and can often feel inadequate or ill equipped to succeed. Nothing could be farther from the truth, and over the course of time your success is revealed through hard work, dedication and commitment. Time is your ally.
Most present-day portrayals of Capricorn suggest they play by the rule book. And this is true to a certain degree. Ultimately the rule book that you want to adhere to is your own, yet often you may end up with a weak authority figure steering the organisation in an impossible direction. One of the designs that often show up in the tapestry of your life is woven by a string of unskilled or inefficient authority figures- teachers, bosses, and managers, even paid professionals! Often you are more proficient with a higher level of comprehension of the job than your boss or service provider. This is your challenge to become your own boss and strive for excellence without the impediment of a system that does share similar values. Yet this takes time to figure out.
Time, quality, excellence and distinction are all hallmarks of your character. You know how to preserve and contain things of value. Responsibility is your great virtue. This suggests response-ability or the ability to respond. In other words you need to support yourself authentically from within, becoming the authority or author of your own life script, not living out of someone else's program. Capricorn is old in its wisdom, but youthful as well, since it has the time to grow into itself.
Your honourable traits such as commitment, dedication and perseverance help to support you in gaining autonomy from the system you feel bound to. You have a strong work ethic and integrity shaped by your innate responsibility to whatever you are doing or whomever you are with. Therefore you are never free of a system, but hopefully free from the systems that no longer support or acknowledge you. In this way you are freer to pursue your own vocational path and not one already earmarked for you. It is important for you to be self-reliant but not exclusively so, as you also need to be responsible to something in the world, be it a project, a task, a baby, a book! Therefore it is not uncommon for you to find yourself as the managing director of your corporation, the president of your golf club, the principal of your school or at the top of the ladder. But your satisfaction comes not from being the supervisor of others, but by being the boss of yourself. Having learnt the lesson of inner authority and personal responsibility you can be liberated enough to feel acknowledged within the system. To find your vitality and spirit and to feel soulful in the world, you need to strive to be committed, reliable and respectful of tradition. Your efficiency, practicality and work ethic are your guiding lights.
Your Moon Sign
Moon in Gemini
With your Moon in Gemini, you need to be stimulated and mobile. Your need for variety, change and as little routine as possible is important in order for you to feel motivated and switched on. Quite naturally you often are involved in many tasks at the same time and have an uncanny ability to be able to apply yourself to each one without losing your momentum. Being quick and agile you make connections very easily, thinking best when you are on the move or in between two places. Just as you are crossing the road, answering the mobile or falling asleep is when you have your best ideas. Therefore it is important for your vocation to have flexibility and fluidity in managing your time and output as well as the freedom to communicate. You naturally prefer a range of tasks; at heart you are a born communicator and messenger with an abundance of ideas.
From an early age you were mobile and talkative off to explore the sights of sounds of the surrounding neighbourhood. Curious and inquisitive you wanted to report what you saw. Instinctively you are a reporter and at some time might have given thought to becoming a journalist, writer, lecturer, secretary, postal worker, teacher, or translator. While your path might have meandered in another direction, your soul needs to communicate and connect. So if you are bored or restless at work this may be a sign that you are not following your true calling and that you need to re-consider your career options. You love to learn in your own way and figure things out. Soul can express itself through your hands making you a natural at drawing, graphics, playing the guitar or piano, or using them to heal. While it is not easy to express your feelings you need to find the venue for their expression in the everyday through words and images.
If you are drawn to the nurturing professions then your Moon in Gemini would lean towards both learning and care, such as in speech therapy, teaching, NLP, teaching, improving memory.
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. This may come easily to you if other aspects of your Birth Chart (and therefore personality) support this goal. However, this may be a challenge if part of you often prefer comfort and security. Your Ascendant in Aries denotes enterprise, enthusiasm, self-assertion and initiative. You are likely to experience more satisfaction throughout life if you can incorporate these qualities. You need to be frank, pioneering, headstrong and self-reliant. You revel in anything that enables you to take the initiative, avoiding following other people's lead in preference for striking out into new territory. 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”.
Planets in Signs
Mercury in Capricorn
The planet Mercury in the zodiac sign of Capricorn indicates that you're a wise and careful thinker, preferring to take your time to consider all possibilities before making decision. You are also likely to choose your words carefully before talking. You place importance on credibility and authority. Therefore you'll seek knowledge which carries some authority. You've an astute mind and enjoy studying a variety of subjects, approaching your topics in a serious fashion. For this reason you enjoy success in the academic world. It's also likely that others will appreciate your wisdom and counsel in many matters. While it's true that you have the ability to become an acknowledged expert in your field, it's also true that you can become a little rigid in your thinking. You approach new ideas with caution, preferring the tried and tested ways that have already been trod. However, with your practical nature you will soon see the advantages of anything new on offer.
Venus in Capricorn
With Venus in the sign of Capricorn you're shy in relationships, slow to form friendships with other people but, once you've committed to another person, then you're steadfast in your efforts to maintain the relationship. This is particularly true of your primary relationship. Not one to be distracted by romantic illusions, you may appear to be reticent, almost cold, in the first throes of love. This is partly because you're timid, but it's also because you like to weigh up the pros and the cons to any new relationship. You're a great believer in the adage "actions speak louder than words" and you like to observe other people's actions. You form relationships slowly, but they are enduring. Your head isn't ruled by your heart, although you like to think that you've a good balance. This is fortunate because you're ambitious in relationships, seeking a partner who is of good character and good standing in the community. For these reasons you may have more difficulty in your relationships earlier in life, seemingly missing out on the flurry of social contacts being experienced by your more flighty friends. It's later in life that your relationships flourish and you're placed in positions of trust and responsibility through your liaisons with other people, particularly people in authority. It's also later in life that you stand to profit through your relationships, either financially or through promotions in your social standing.
Mars in Pisces
The planet Mars in the sign of Pisces indicates that you're a sensitive and affectionate individual, with a tendency to have difficulties facing the more practical realities of life. Where others rise to a challenge, you're more likely to hesitate, fearful of the consequences. You're timid and retiring, preferring to skirt around conflict rather than tackling problems head on. In some cases you can resort to emotional manipulation in order to get your own way, such as refusing to show interest or take part in a project. In other words you're more likely to be passive rather than aggressive in your approach to achieving your goals, and when thwarted. You do well when you're able to socialise with sympathetic and like-minded individuals, but you suffer when exposed to harsh or unsympathetic people. In other words you're easily influenced by other people. For this reason you need to avoid situations in which you may be victimised, as this will only fan the gloomy and depressive side of your nature. You would be better to pursue a more creative or spiritual path in life, or to take up activities which enable you to express the caring side of your nature. You're a kind and benevolent person, often drawn to philanthropic institutions. You're also likely to be artistically or psychically gifted.
Jupiter in Aquarius
You've the planet Jupiter in the zodiac sign of Aquarius in your birth chart indicating that as a broad-minded and liberal person you like to be allowed to follow your own original path through life. You're also equally happy to accept other people's freedom to follow their own path, no matter how unusual that may be. 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 Pisces
The planet Saturn in the sign of Pisces signifies that you're a compassionate and intuitive worker, although you can be anxious and fearful. At times you're indecisive and fickle in your actions because you're prone to allow external influences to sway your judgement. As a result you often experience delays and frustrations. You also seem to be frustrated in your attempts to achieve practical ambitions. You're ingenious and inspiring, but lack the ability or the circumstances to achieve your material ambitions. This concerns you more because of other people's expectations rather than because of your own values. Truth be known you would rather pursue a spiritual path or develop your artistic talents than work your way up the corporate ladder. Money and material goods are really only a means to an end, as far as you are concerned. You're more likely to seek security through understanding the psychic and metaphysical side of life. You would also prefer to have the opportunity to withdraw from the responsibilities of daily life rather than face the rigours of other people's expectations. Left to your own devices, or with a wealthy benefactor, you're happiest when meditating or reflecting on the afterworld or starving in the name of art.
Uranus in Taurus
The planet Uranus was in the sign of Taurus from 1934 - 1942. It's important to note that Uranus spends a long time in each sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation you need to look at the house position of Uranus in your chart. Uranus in the sign of Taurus indicates that you belong to a generation which has the tenacity to pursue the new ways of society. This generation is likely to focus on society's resources. Positively this can be efficient use of resources for the benefit of everyone. However, it can also be the stockpiling and over-use of the world's resources to the detriment of society.
Neptune in Virgo
The planet Neptune was in the sign of Virgo from 1928 - 1943. It's important to note that Neptune takes about 164 years to make a complete cycle, spending about thirteen years in each sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation you need to look at the house position of Neptune in your chart. Neptune in the sign of Virgo indicates that you belong to a generation faced with the task of analysing the excesses of extravagance, and organising a systemic approach to blending the spiritual and practical. You're concerned with ensuring that spiritual matters become part of a daily routine. For instance, yours is a generation that may view regular attendance at church a necessity for good healthy living.
Pluto in Cancer
The planet Pluto was in the sign of Cancer from 1914 - 1939. It's important to note that Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 - 32 years in each sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation you need to look at the house position of Pluto in your chart. Pluto in the sign of Cancer suggests that you belong to a generation of upheaval in social systems. People born into this generation were born into troubled times which threatened their security and family. As a result this generation continues to experience changes in values, challenges to security and develops the ability to form new social concepts.
Chiron in Gemini
Part of your experience could include a deep wounding that in some way relates to your intellectual capacity. Perhaps you experienced some sort of learning disability, or maybe you missed some schooling due to ill health, so part of you feels unsure of your intellectual ability and hence you strive to attain more information and knowledge. At some point you might feel you are intellectually inadequate, which can lead you to over-compensate by cramming your head full of information, facts and data.
At the same time you may feel a sense of stress that can stem from information overload, travel and mobility issues, or generally doing too much, which then leads problems such as recurring shoulder tension, colds, flu, asthma, bronchitis, chest and sinus conditions.
Learning new information can also be quite stressful for you and because it is painful, you might try to avoid it. Returning to study throughout life may be challenging for you, but it will also be highly rewarding and healing, and show you how to embrace your full potential. Teaching, writing or speaking could play a large role in your life. You are both student and teacher.
Make time to express your feelings, emotions and needs too. You will learn that communication comes in many forms, not just in words, facts and ideas. Healing begins when you stop trying to do ten things at once and keep an open mind.
Planets in Houses
Sun in 10th house
In your 10th house you have the Sun. Solar occupations have been traditionally linked with speculation and risk-taking in entrepreneurial business ventures. While the Sun is not psychologically associated with risk, except perhaps the risks of self-discovery, the Solar sphere of the 5th house rules speculation and gambling and conjures up images of commodity traders, promoters, stock exchange personnel, investment bankers, high risk investors.
Solar qualities of leadership and fathering are connected with authoritative and executive positions. The Sun represents vocations that father and foster others, and with the Sun in the 10th house leadership is part of the career path; hence positions such as foremen, presidents, magistrates, community leaders, business managers, instructors, principals and team directors are reflective of the Sun shining through the 10th house. On a personal level the need for the personal father's approval may be high and this could be unconsciously transferred onto superiors in the workforce when father's approval feels lacking or is withheld. Father may also be influential in the choice of vocation; this is not always conscious, as father's unlived professional life may be cast a shadow over your own career path.
The Sun is also linked to entertainment professions, amusements, self-improvement, creative expression or careers involved relating to an audience. Acting, the theatre, the performing arts, motivational training, teaching, sales, advertising and promotions are all consistent with the urge to express the self. This also could manifest in careers involving amusement centres, or professions which deal with leisure and recreation. The Sun is also the natural ruler of the 5th house, suggesting working with children and children's products. A wide range of careers would fit this category such as teachers, child counsellors, children's recreation or amusement, children and educational toys, children's wear etc.
Of all the planetary types, the solar type is one of the most difficult to typify. However, you need to enjoy what you do and feel personally identified with your vocation. There is a strong affinity with creativity and a need to be acknowledged and congratulated for your creative endeavours. Ultimately what is important is that you are able to identify with your career and be able to place your creativity and yourself at the heart of what you do.
Moon in 2nd house
The Moon is in your 2nd house of resources, suggesting that it is important for you to feel emotionally and financially secure. Both emotional and financial securities are intertwined and you can't have one without the other. Wealth is very much bound up with feeling safe, having a home place, family connections and familial possessions around you. Collecting and saving are in your blood and being surrounded by your things promotes a sense of well being. However you might also turn this instinct into your career, as you have the knack for collecting valuables, antiques, coins, stamps or any objects that have feeling, history or sentiment attached to them.
Vocationally the Moon suggests you could also earn your living in the caring professions, whether that is as a nurse, teacher, child or old age care, counsellor etc. However since the home is of great importance to you, you have a knack for knowing value when you see it. You might turn these skills to real estate or property development. Working from the home in your own business or family business may also be a possibility. In fact you might have inherited a family concern or be administrator of a family trust. Home and family play a major role in your financial affairs and lifestyle. Another way this might manifest is working in homes in a multitude of capacities, from handy work to decoration. It is important for you to recognise the large role that safety, familiarity and feeling play in making your living.
Accustomed to changing phases, the Moon brings her fluctuating influence into the realm of money. The natural tides of life will be experienced in your resources. Therefore it is important to remember that there are times of growth, times of inflation and time of recession. It is important to protect your resources as much as possible and promote a sense of safety. Worrying about fluctuations in currency, the stock market or interest rates can affect your feelings of safety and therefore it is best to insure that you feel as protected as possible against the tides of life. The secret to your success is your level of emotional well being. A strong family, a warm home and a familiar routine support your feeling secure.
Mercury in 9th House
The Messenger of the Gods is in the House of the Gods. As such your likely to experience a leap of faith during this period. This could mean that you experience a transcendental moment in your life, something that inspires you to take up a spiritual or artistic lifestyle. On a more practical note you may decide to travel, enter into academia or become involved in an international or multi-cultural cause. At first you may simply find yourself drawn to material (reading or media) that stretches your mind and interests. Gradually though you are likely to want to learn more, and perhaps change your life as a result. This is a period in your life where you can focus on the bigger picture rather than worrying about small details. The world news rather than local affairs is likely to attract your attention. If you are spiritually inclined then you may like to think of this as a time during which you can "feed your soul". It is certainly a period during which you can discover meaning and purpose in your life.
Venus in 9th House
As the planet of love progresses into the 9th House of your Birth Chart so do you begin to question the meaning of life. In particular you may query the relationships, the lifes and times of your loved ones and your deepest connections with others. You may feel an urge to break the bonds of the past and to emerge with a new set of values. Your understanding of God, the world at large and world issues may come into focus. If you have connections with other cultures or people from foreign lands then these are likely to change for the better. If those connected to you do not make positive changes, then you are likely to instigate them yourself. You are ready for a new phase of life that is based on meaningful and purposeful connections. Your world is expanding in ways that bring you pleasure and likewise you want to share your experiences. You may feel an urge to study an academic course, or travel to foreign lands. If so then you are likely to do so for pure pleasure rather than from a sense of ambition, purpose or duty. Money will flow when you need it for publishing, travel and study.
Mars in 11th House
During this period of your life you are likely to advance your own goals and ambitions through your friends, associations and groups. As a consequence you may feel an urge to join a club or group, perhaps even taking on a leadership role. Your efforts are likely to be noted. For this reason you are best advised to do your best to remain a calm and forceful leader, brokering peace and diplomacy whenever possible. Your status in society is likely to increase through belonging to a group that truly reflects your own hopes, dreams and wishes while also benefitting society at large.
Jupiter in 10th house
In your 10th house you have the planet Jupiter, known for its expansive, positive and confident nature. Careers involved in expanding people's understanding of themselves and the world around them, or administering to individual’s religious and soul-needs are Jupiterian and suited to your temperament. Philosophers, philosophy teachers, the realms of literature, ministers, clergymen, motivational instructors, educators and coaches are under the influence of Jupiter and any of these roles would provide a focus for this expansive energy. Jupiter also is associated with team sports, the sporting industry, adventure and is connected to horse racing, sporting goods, team sports, explorer, adventure guides. One of the consistent themes in your vocation will be the urge to expand and stretch yourself beyond the limits that were set by your family and culture. You have the urge to exceed the expectations that were set down.
Jupiterian vocations educate and inspire others to a greater understanding; therefore professors, university lecturers and tutors, teachers of higher wisdom utilise the archetype of Jupiter in their careers. Cross-cultural contacts, travel and dealing with international concerns are also part of pattern, including vocations in the foreign service, import/export trade, protocol, ambassadors, foreign trade, interpreters, missionaries, travel consultants and industry, foreign affairs, international contacts. As part of education Jupiter rules the dissemination of information and ideas: publishing, author, advertising, telecommunications industry
As the chief Olympian Zeus (Jupiter) was the most influential of the gods and this archetype seeks to influence and impact others with their ideas, generally through 'education'. Teaching, instructing, publishing, coaching, guiding and mentoring is the common denominator of all Jupiterian professions. Your urge will be to educate and disseminate information that will enhance understanding and improve the quality of life. It is imperative that you bring your vision and your ethics to whatever career you choose. You are an eternal student and traveller and it is important that you bring your visionary and optimistic spirit into any role you play in the world.
Saturn in 12th 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 12th House of your Birth Chart and you are likely to experience a less confident time than usual. Isolation may be part of your life now. This can be for positive reasons if you choose to work on a project that demands your total attention or to parent young children at home. However, you are not your usual confident self and you need to find alternative resources. You are required to dig deep and discover inner strengths that you did not know existed.
Uranus in 1st House
The planet Uranus is in the 1st House of your birth chart suggesting that you're one of a kind - a real individual, who stands out in a crowd. And this is the way that you like it. The tried and true paths through life don't interest you. An original thinker, perhaps even a genius in your field, you're eager to embrace new ideas and projects. You're excited by innovative and challenging ideas and projects. It's definitely a case of "out with the old and in with the new". Rules are meant to be broken and traditions are meant to be defied as far as you're concerned. You like to take risks, and can be a bit of a dare-devil. In fact if anyone tries to curb your freedom, you're willing to fight for your rights to be independent. It's possible that others will turn to you for leadership, wanting you to fight for their rights as well. For this reason you could be at the forefront of humanitarian or political causes. It's also possible that metaphysical, scientific and occult discoveries fascinate your intelligent and intuitive mind. Your appearance is likely to reflect your original personality, resulting in some original and innovated fashion statements. Although you may appear odd at times to other people, your original approach to life is likely to overcome their concerns.
Neptune in 5th House
The planet Neptune placed in the 5th House of your chart means that you've a strong artistic nature, with an ability to be creative by using your intuition. However it's possible that you may have to make sacrifices before you can be creative. These sacrifices can be experienced in early childhood or as an adult, or both. For instance, as a child you may long to go out and play with other children, but you suffer from a debilitating illness. As an adult you may long to be an artist, but first you've to care for an ailing mother. This sense of sacrifice is also likely to be linked with children. Perhaps you can't bear children of your own, or there are delays and frustrations. You've a romantic and seductive side to your nature, which can attract beneficial or deceitful lovers, depending on other aspects in your chart. These aspects will also mean that you may be subject to deceit or benefits from speculative investments.
Pluto in 4th House
The planet Pluto is in the 4th House of your birth chart indicating 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. 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.
NorthNode in the 8th House
Your North Node is in the 8th House with the South Node being in the polarity of the 2nd House. In your horoscope this is the polarity that brings the sharing of resources into opposition with personal assets. You tend to be self-made and independent, but sometimes feel that you cannot trust other people when it comes to the world of wealth and resources. You can trust your own judgment with investments and banking, but not so sure you can trust anyone else. Your challenge is to trust your own judgment enough to be open, intimate and trusting of some people, if not all. Trust, loyalty and integrity are challenges that await us in the 8th House and these are encountered through a deep emotional bond that confronts our vulnerability. The invitation of the North Node is to face this challenge of becoming deeply involved with another person, and not get fixed in the safety zone of your own assets. You are able to be generous, giving and resourceful; however your kindness and generosity may be your defence against being vulnerable. You might be asked to risk losing assets and resources in order to take a chance at loving.
Vocationally your assets are better invested in working with others and forging deep and trustworthy connections. You have an instinct for what is valuable and when you share this talent with others you find that you become even better off. Call it luck or fortune but providence has blessed you with an innate sense of resourcefulness for the purpose of helping others feels secure. Tyche, the goddess who spins the wheel of fortune, is your resourceful and kind-hearted spirit when you direct your energies towards others. Vocationally your path intersects with the spiritual, emotional and financial needs of others. Your ability to create wealth is a given and therefore you may be drawn to a profession in financial arenas such as stock market and futures trading, investment banking, and mortgage broking.
Chiron in 3rd House
You have Chiron in the 3rd House; while Chiron is not classified as a planet, its archetypal imagery is an insightful addition to our planetary pantheon. Chiron, like the three older Olympian brothers, Hades, Poseidon and Zeus, was a son of Chronus, therefore was their half-brother and part of the Olympian family. However, Chiron was not awarded the same status as his half-siblings, an especially interesting theme for Chiron in the 3rd House, as this archetypal imprint might suggest a sibling who is not from the system or not granted the same status as the other siblings. As a sibling image Chiron, represents the adopted sibling, the step-sibling, or the sibling not wholly part of the sibling system. In essence it is a feeling of being displaced or not fitting in.
Chiron in the 3rd House points to a potential wounding that has occurred with or through your siblings or early relationships. Another possibility is that a sibling might be wounded, handicapped, physically or mentally challenged, even adopted or relinquished. Chiron represents a wound that is inflicted unintentionally; with Chiron in the third, this wound may have been inflicted by your sibling/s or surrogate sibs. This generally is not physical, although it may be; it is usually experienced through name calling or other forms of verbal abuse or wounding. The deeper meaning of the 3rd House, I feel, has to do with the power of the word. With Chiron in the third, the poisonous arrows that are the wounding agent could be the sibling’s verbal abuse. A child being branded stupid, ugly or illegitimate by his siblings can receive a lifelong wound. Chiron in the third is also highly sensitive to the feeling effect that flows beneath what is said; so the wound can also be inflicted by the dishonesty and trickery of the sibling.
The wound could also be that you feel exiled from your siblings, completely separate and not a part of the same system they belong to. I have often witnessed that this placement might reveals loss in the family, and the individual with Chiron in the third is the one who is prone to carrying the unresolved grief from this loss. Chiron in the third seems to be a dominant placement for those who have a handicapped sib. While this might not apply in your case, you are drawn to helping others and it is in your early childhood environs where you might have had the inspiration to become a carer or healer. However ambivalence often accompanies this aspect, as you love your sibling or the one who is being taken care of, but you also feel that you missed out on some things due to the enormous attention focused on the other. Both the wound and the impulse to cure and help is opened in your early relationships with others who may not be as blessed.
Early patterns from your sibling system may be re-enacted later in adult relationships by drawing the wounded other into our orbit, bringing the primal polarity of wounding and healing to surface in relationships. Or this may manifest at your feeling marginal or outside the relationship or social circle of friends. Unexpectedly, your partners and friends may once again draw the sibling wound to the surface. Therefore it might be of value to reflect on how this influences your relationships. Your kindred spirits come from a very different world than the one you have known and encourage you to think outside the square and live outside the system.
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 Opposition Pluto
Transformation is the key to this period. You are like the butterfly that is emerging from the cocoon. However, the process is not necessarily an easy one. You need to work your way out of the cocoon, say goodbye and fly away. The drawback is that the birth process is not easy. However, the reward is that you will feel reborn and able to live your life much closer to your true nature.
Sun Conjunct Midheaven
You were born near midday, as the Sun had reached its highest peak. Like the bright Sun you are called to shine in the world suggesting your destiny is to be identified through your career. Your vocation is a call to know yourself and you will identify strongly with your work and profession. The Solar qualities of leadership, fathering, fostering, creativity, self-expression, confidence and courage are important to develop. It is helpful to understand that, like all vocations, there will be peaks and troughs, successes and failures, as well as critical moments of transition. It is imperative to be as aware of the times of descent and the shadows along your career path, as it is the ascent and light.
Sun Soft Neptune
You're likely to have many dreams about what you would like to achieve in your life because the Sun is making contact with the planet Neptune in your birth chart.

There's no doubt that you're intuitive and talented, but other aspects of your chart will indicate whether or not you've the practical ability needed to ensure success in a sometimes harsh world. You're a sympathetic and kind person, who generously enjoys supporting other people in achieving their life goals. This could range from offering a sympathetic ear to other people's troubles to working for a charitable institution. You're wise in the ways of the spiritual world, feeling at home in the imaginative and esoteric realms. It's the harsh realities of the material world that you find confusing. This is probably because of your highly-sensitive nature, which is so in tune with the emotional and spiritual aspects of life. You're easily emotionally influenced by other people and circumstances, and should therefore take care to surround yourself with positive and uplifting friends. You're also likely to be sensitive to the physical world, reacting to drugs or suffering from allergies. For this reason you should take care with your diet and avoid addictive drugs. It's important that you create moments for quiet reflection, communing with nature, or listening to beautiful music. The ocean could play a particularly important role in your life, inspiring or soothing your sensitive nature. You need to have some freedom to daydream and to pursue your artistic talents. This is essential if you're to achieve your life goals.
Sun Trine Neptune
It is time to slow down and contemplate. Spiritual, artistic and philanthropic activities are highly beneficial right now. Nature walks and trips to the seaside are also very soothing. If you have been working hard or undergoing rapid changes in your life then you would be well advised to make the most of this period. Relax and reflect. This is a time of assimilation rather than action. Feelings in connection to the past may emerge during this period. If so, then express the emotions in a safe and gentle manner and allow a growing sense of comprehension to dawn. An artistic project, spiritual retreat or philanthropic activity may be the perfect avenue to explore the softer side of your nature.
Sun Hard Pluto
The road to achieving your life goals is going to be tough because the Sun is making a difficult aspect to the planet Pluto in your birth chart.

You're likely to succeed where others have failed, but the path will be strewn with obstacles. It could be circumstances which stand in your way. Perhaps your childhood was difficult, failing to provide you with the support needed for a successful adult life. It's possible that a dominant father figure blocked your success, perhaps even abusing himself or you in the process. As a result you're likely to experience strong emotions, possibly anger, when you reflect on your experiences. You can be explosive and unpredictable and have trouble controlling your emotions, feeling that the world is opposing your deepest wishes. Your challenge is to be powerful in the most positive sense of the word. This way you achieve your life goals without causing too much damage on the way!
;*Explanation
Moon Square Neptune
During this period you are more sensitive to other people and your surroundings. For this reason you may feel confused. Your former goals may have lost some of their meaning. Try not to be too concerned. You simply need to slow down, rest and reflect on some important aspects of your life. As part of this process you may feel the urge to take part in creative, spiritual or artistic pursuits. These can be a valuable means of exploring your feelings. Your dream life may also be more active, as you tune in to your intuitive nature. Dreams may be more vivid, carrying messages for your waking life. Your perceptions and goals are changing in subtle ways. You need to avoid making decisions that require logic. Preferably you should learn to listen to your intuition. If in doubt then take your time before making life-changing decisions. This is a time to gently explore the more subtle realms of life, rather than forge ahead with definitive goals. You are rather like the butterfly that is emerging from the cocoon. Try not to force the process, but rather take your time and enjoy the new emerging you. As a result you will discover new depths and meanings that colour your life in significant ways.
Moon Hard Mars
The Moon is making a difficult aspect to the planet Mars in your chart indicating that arguments and emotional disputes abound in your home life. These upsets could be caused by another member of your family, but it's more likely that you're quick-tempered and intolerant around your loved ones. Your intentions are good, but you've difficulty containing your anger in certain situations. At times you feel as though you've been unfairly misjudged and this adds fuel to your already well-lit fire. Unfortunately your impatience and irritability can result in periods of loneliness because others would rather leave you alone than bear the brunt of your bad moods. You may also find that your loved ones are angry at your attitude or it could be that they simply find it impossible to relax in your company, which is a problem if they want peace and quiet at home. You need to find an outlet for your nervous tension. For instance, letting off steam in sports or activities that demand high energy or concentration will help. Finding an absorbing project which can be based in your home could also prove beneficial. You certainly have plenty of energy and this could be directed into new enterprises or working around the house.
Moon Hard 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.
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.
Mercury Hard Saturn
The planet Mercury is making unfavourable contact with the planet Saturn in your birth chart meaning that you experience delays and obstacles in your education and communication at some stage of your life. This could be problems with teachers in early childhood education, or a change of school which proves unsatisfactory, or possibly early-learning difficulties. 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. These delays are most likely to occur in connection to your studies, contracts, books, and negotiations with other people. You also need to be wary of unnecessary gloomy thoughts. At times you may sympathise with the misery of the donkey Eeyore in A. A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh. You would do well to remember that it's possible that you've become overly sensitive to criticism as a result of your childhood experiences. You may be reacting to perceived sleights, which were not intended. It's also possible that you've become set in your ideas and find it difficult to change your mind. Your rigidity may be preventing you from understanding the true meaning of other's words and actions. Although you've difficulty in communicating your thoughts to others and overcoming the obstacles in your education, you do have strong will power. Your strength of mind and persistence can be put to good use. You may be particularly interested in science, medicine, or politics, although you're more likely to adhere to traditional approaches. You've the ability to become a voice of authority in your field of expertise, particularly a field which requires. In other words you're capable of achieving whatever you set your mind to despite the obstacles.
Mercury Hard Pluto
The planets Mercury and Pluto are combined in your birth chart suggesting that your education and communications are coloured with highs and lows. On the positive side you've a probing mind and the ability to assess situations rapidly, which can lead to success in your studies. You're likely to excel in any education process which requires research and intense work. It's also likely that these gifts will help you excel in any professional or personal situation which involves counselling or crisis work. Your insightful mind proves invaluable in such situations. You enjoy investigating mysteries and probing for hidden truths. Although you can be secretive by nature, you find it difficult to appreciate other people's need for privacy. You feel impelled to uncover any secret, be it personal or societal. Fortunately you also know how to keep secrets. It's likely that you've learnt to rely on your own judgement from an early age. Perhaps a threatening environment, at home, in your neighbourhood, or at school, meant that your instincts were a vital means of survival. It could also have been a crisis, ranging from a traumatic change of school or a death, that led to your ability to see situations clearly and honestly. The gifts can be used to benefit your adult life, and other people. However, problems are likely to arise because of your inability to see the lighter side of life, and to accept that occasionally you might be wrong! You are a deep thinker with wonderful powers of concentration, but you can become obsessive, seeing only innuendos and subtleties in communications, rather than the bigger and often brighter picture. This obsessive side of your nature means that you also tend to believe that others are opposed to your thoughts and ideas, when perhaps they're not. You need to battle to overcome your tendency to create conflict and then seek revenge in such situations. If you believe that you're losing sight of the plot, then seek advice from a trusted friend or colleague. You are at your most powerful when using your insights for positive purposes. In particular your honesty and insights can be useful in a counselling situation, but be careful of taking these talents out of the consulting room unless invited to do so. Friends and loved ones may not always appreciate your ability to get straight to the point, particularly if they're feeling vulnerable or emotionally distraught. You need to learn tact and diplomacy and sensitivity to other people's pain. Your gifts, combined with compassion, make you a powerful advocate in any field.
Venus Trine Neptune
It is time for reflection rather than action. Artistic events, spiritual retreats and sojourns in nature are ideal for contemplative stage of your life. You are likely to have romantic notions right now. Let your imagination run wild. Indulge in a little daydreaming and avoid making life-changing decisions. Contracts, both business and personal, are best let alone because you are not in a practical mode - quite the opposite. Cast off as many responsibilities as is reasonable in your current circumstances and take pleasure in this creative and romantic phase. The more that you can relax and enjoy this phase the more you will feel rested and rejuvenated for the next phase. You may even discover a latent talent.
Venus Soft Mars
The planets Venus and Mars are combining in your chart indicating that you seek a stimulating and romantic relationship. You're charming and assertive, passionate and alive, and admire these qualities in a potential intimate partner. You love to share your adventures with your partner, and it's likely that your relationship will inspire both you and your partner to explore new territory. You need only be wary of holding unrealistically high expectations of your partner, as this can lead to difficulties. This is more likely to be the case when you're young and idealistic. You're liable to disappointment, perhaps even angry feelings, when your partner fails to live up to your expectations. You could also feel angry if rejected in love. Fortunately you've an irrepressible side to your nature, on which you can rely in times of relationship trouble. You're a loyal and fun-loving partner with an ability to balance intimacy with independence.
Venus Conjunct Midheaven
Luminous Venus is at the pinnacle of your horoscope suggesting that her values of beauty, pleasure, form, balance and proportion are woven into the fabric of your vocation. Vocationally this suggests you are well suited to careers where design, décor, style, hospitality, diplomacy, mediation, pleasure, partnership and counselling may play a major role. You are interested in beautifying and harmonising the environment and whether you take an artistic, economical or social pathway to satisfy this yearning, you feel called to enhance and improve your surrounds. As the archetype of sexuality and relationship, this also suggests that partnership and career may be entwined at some point on your vocational journey.
Venus Soft Neptune
The planets Neptune and Venus are connected in your chart indicating that you yearn for romance in your primary relationship. Whether you realise it or not, you're seeking an ideal and perfect partner, who may only exist in fairy tales. If you're not careful you'll become disillusioned with the imperfections of relationships and seek solace in a fantasy world. You need to face the realities and imperfections of yourself and your partner as much as possible. This doesn't mean that you need to completely rule out romance and idyllic love. In fact it might help if you're able to escape with your loved one to a romantic setting, away from the demands of everyday life. Coming to terms with the reality of your relationship simply helps you obtain a better understanding of your primary relationship, and helps prevent you becoming disillusioned. In other words taking off the rose-coloured glasses means that you can make a proper assessment of your primary relationship. As a result you'll experience fewer feelings of resentment and disappointment because your partner fails to be perfect, and you won't be in danger of overlooking some major flaws such as drug addiction or deceit. With the right partner you'll enjoy a sense of peace and fulfilment. You may also enjoy artistic or spiritual pursuits together. You're ardent and loving, responding quickly to your partner's need. In turn you benefit from acts of kindness, love and appreciation.
Mars Opposition Neptune
Imagination, intuition and relaxation are all key words that can be applied to your life right now. It is not a time to take on extra responsibilities. Instead you should take some time out and take a vacation by the ocean or in the middle of the countryside. If you cannot get away from your responsibilities at work then perhaps an evening art or meditation class would be more feasible. You need to spend more time in spiritual, artistic and philanthropic pursuits. As a result your imagination and creativity can blossom. If you do not slow down then you may feel lethargic or lack motivation and wonder why. Listen to your intuition and dare to dream.
Mars Hard Neptune
At times you've difficulty getting motivated, lacking the energy to fulfil the many task in your life. This is because of the difficult combination of the planets Mars and Neptune. It's not that you lack in creative ideas, but rather that you sense that you don't have the energy to carry them out. It's possible that you're prone to allergies and physical illness, but one of the keys to success is taking time out to experience quiet and reflective moments. You need to "slow down and smell the roses" on a regular basis. This could be spending time in nature, listening to inspirational music, swimming in the ocean or sitting in a quiet house of prayer; any activity which provides emotional and physical rest and soothes the soul. If you don't schedule in quiet time then you're likely to suffer from lethargy and despondency, and possibly even physical illness. You've the ability to develop great creative power but you need to avoid drugs and alcohol. It's also possible that you have either a strong artistic or spiritual side to your nature, which could be used for self-motivation. Your hobbies or career may reflect your spiritual or artistic gifts. Your spirituality could be either orthodox or liberal. The artistic side of your nature may benefit from activities such as art, theatre, dance, music, design, film and craft work.
Jupiter Hard Uranus
The planets Jupiter and Uranus are making a difficult aspect in your chart indicating that your unusual approach to achieving your goals can sometimes land you in hot water! You're keen to change things in this world because you can see where traditional methods have failed. You see no reason to continue with out-moded traditions, preferring unconventional and new ideas. The trouble is that at times you lack tact and diplomacy. You're impatient to see results, not realising that your very impatience is jeopardising your success. Repeatedly throughout your life, experience is likely to teach you that success isn't an overnight accomplishment. Results don't always come quickly. Perhaps you could remind yourself of the motto "all good things come to those who wait". It's worth persevering with your goals and taking a positive approach to overcoming the obstacles in your life. You can achieve a great deal in the world through your innovative and unusual methods. You may also benefit by joining with like-minded individuals, perhaps in the fields of metaphysics, unorthodox religion or science.
Jupiter Hard Neptune
The planets Jupiter and Neptune are forming a difficult aspect in your chart indicating that you encounter difficulties early in life when expressing the creative side of your nature. It could be that you're not aware of your talents, or it could be that you're a dreamer who has trouble making practical moves to develop your abilities. Perhaps you're idealistic when it comes to assessing your options. The good news is that you're likely to overcome these difficulties as you mature. Whether you know it or not, you're a highly-talented individual. You're not necessarily a budding artist, but there's at least one area in your life in which you're creative. Of course you need to become aware of this talent before you can fully develop. You then need to acquire self-discipline if you're to make something of your gifts. Once you've made this discovery, whether it be in teaching, the arts, healing or spirituality, then you're capable of reaching for the stars. Your spiritual beliefs may also play a prominent role in helping you achieve your ambitions.
Jupiter Hard Pluto
The planets Jupiter and Pluto are making a difficult aspect in your birth chart indicating that you've some difficulty achieving your life goals, but you will get to where you want in the end. The problem is that you reject the usual paths to success, believing that you've a better way of doing things. Your attempts to change the rules, or to try to make others agree with your insights, are sincere, but intrusive. As a result you often land yourself in troublesome situations, which can lead to disillusionment and distract you from your purpose. This can dent your confidence. You range from over confidence to completely lacking in confidence. The truth lies somewhere in between. Society has rules to run itself efficiently, and these can be to your benefit rather than detriment. Once you accept your own and society's limitations then you can achieve your objectives.
Jupiter SesquiSquare 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 Soft Pluto
The combination of the planets Saturn and Pluto in your chart suggests that you're an ambitious, insightful and powerful person. 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, perhaps as a mediator. It's possible that you could become involved in someone's power struggles, in which your role may or may not be central to the outcome. It's true that you've the ability to be a powerful leader, perhaps in the government or armed forces, 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 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.
NorthNode Soft Jupiter
The North Node and the planet Jupiter are combining to suggest that your current life challenge is to embrace adventure. This can be travelling to foreign places, or taking more risks in your daily life. Either way you may find yourself in some challenging situations! Inspiring others, possibly through preaching or teaching, may be part of your life's destiny. Benevolent groups may also play a key role.
NorthNode Soft Saturn
You're being challenged, through the combination of the North Node and the planet Saturn, to take a responsible role in groups. You may prefer your own company, but you need to work steadily with others in order to achieve your goals. You may experience periods of isolation, perhaps through physical illnesses, but these force you to reassess your life so that you can fully appreciate your responsibilities.
NorthNode Soft Pluto
You're on a quest to use your insights and personal experience to help others. This is because of the association of the North Node and the planet Pluto in your birth chart. You may encounter traumas during your lifetime, which will ultimately help to develop your resourceful nature.
SouthNode Soft Jupiter

You're being challenged to develop your expansive ideas in a practical manner. Your quest is to work in a realistic and down-to-earth manner towards your goals.
Chiron square Neptune
The wound from this aspect stems from not being able to pay attention to your dreams. The environment you grew up in forced you to repress, or discount your dreams, or place them on the back burner. Perhaps you were even laughed at for your wild imagination.
To heal this wound, you need to allow yourself to believe in your dreams again, to get in touch with your imagination. The wound may have gone so deep that it gave you a fear of the unknown, fear of what you cannot see, hear, taste, smell or touch. You must find a way to give yourself permission to open up to what lies beyond the senses, what lies outside the realm of apparent reality. Otherwise, you may find yourself with a tendency to go overboard into the real world then to submerge yourself into material things, in order not to have to deal with the unknown.
Healing from this wound, the most common expression is the tendency to have some dream that is totally you, some image of the ideal self that is the way you want to be and then to believe totally that you can be this. The magic of believing in yourself.
This aspect does not denote success or failure at achieving this dream, only the very strong belief that this is what you could be. There is also, if the aspect is strongly emphasized, a desire to overcome any obstacle that interferes with your understanding of life or of the universe. Even if you have not begun to heal from the wound, there is a curiosity deep within that never completely is broken. You crave understanding, hunger to know what the meaning of life is; the more you heal, the more you allow yourself to explore, to search for truth, and to imagine possible worlds, possible alternate futures.
Chiron Opposite Mercury
The combination brings the themes of mentoring, wounding and healing together with the image of your sibling. Perhaps your sibling fostered your spiritual development, encouraging you to be heroic. On the other hand your brother or sister may have been an agent of wounding. This could have manifested in many various ways like name-calling, abandonment or rejection. You may feel alienated or separated from your siblings, as if exiled from your community of peers. Literally, this image suggests a sibling that is handicapped in some way, an adopted sibling or the separation from your sibling through death or a schism in the family. While this not necessarily may be your experience, you may feel that you are separated from the others in some way. You might feel cut off from others due to communication having an early experience of wounding through communication, speaking a foreign language, distinct learning patterns or simply feeling misunderstood. Therefore your kindred spirits are unique and in communication and relationship you find the freedom that comes by not being identical to others. Through your adult relationships you are able to heal your earlier feelings of exclusion.
Chiron square Saturn
It is a rare person with this aspect who did not as a child have a great deal of difficulty with parents. Since this aspect seems to stay within orb for many years, it seems to represent more people, whole generations, rather than single individuals. Thus, a great many people came from homes where there was difficulty dealing with authority. This aspect expresses itself as a tendency to get set into some routine, or some effort to build a structure that is impervious to change. You have a clear-cut idea of reality, and while you might not like it, it is secure. But then Chiron comes along and throws you totally off your feet. You may easily feel that you have been zapped! The world picture is suddenly different from what you had thought it was, and reality must be drastically redefined. At this point, you have two options:
1. Allow fear to take over, withdraw, not knowing who or what to trust. You know that what you had counted on no longer works, but you fear looking for something that will work. The best thing you could do at this point would be to seek guidance, but it is a scary thing to do, and some people allow themselves to be almost crushed before seeking help.
2. This is the more positive expression. You recognize that it is up to you to put the pieces together to form a more coherent personal definition of reality. You pull yourself together, sometimes seeking assistance from a counsellor, psychologist or guru, and attempt to construct a more workable life system with a structure that will withstand whatever comes. At this point crucial decisions are made. You may go so far as to establish a new, tight, secure foundation for yourself, and then hide behind it. If this path is chosen, you will find that you must eventually go through the catastrophe all over again as you discover that the new reality is faulty, too. or, you may go to the extreme of disregarding conventions, structures, and any definition of reality altogether. You may become totally anti-authority. If you choose this route, you will also, one day, reach a critical point where everything collapses around you, only for you, it may eventually be the coming of a very heavy Saturn event (imprisonment, poverty, ostracism) causing a great loss of personal freedom. What this aspect is trying to teach you is a major lesson, but if you do not learn from such experience, the cycle can repeat.
The most positive path, however, is the acceptance of any definition of reality as temporary, and any structure as useful, but only as a means to an end. By learning to accept change, accepting authority as necessary to a particular situation (but not as all-powerful), accept that those in power are also human, you reach a great equilibrium. You can use Saturn when needed, and go beyond it when necessary. In fact, you can create your own structures to fit the occasion, and discard them when they’re no longer needed.
