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 12th House

Your Sun is in the 12th House of your birth chart meaning that much of your life is spent working behind the scenes.

On the other hand you may work in the relative anonymity of a large institution such as a hospital or the armed services. Although you've the ability to succeed in your life, it is likely to involve some form of self-sacrifice. You've the ability to overcome any difficulties entirely through your own efforts, although you can benefit from other people's charity at great times of need. You seem to be constantly forced into situations where you've to tackle things on your own and may sometimes feel overwhelmed by the forces of the world. Seclusion is a prominent theme of your life, whether it is enforced or by choice. It may be that you actually enjoy long periods on your own, recharging your batteries through moments of quiet reflection. It's also possible that you could have some difficulty spending time on your own, as this forces you to contemplate painful memories, particularly those connected with your father. It's likely that you've missed out on an opportunity to have a close relationship with your father. This separation could have been because your father was forced through circumstances to leave the family home, or perhaps he was unwell, or simply the type of person who lacked the strength to face up to his parental duties. In some cases it's possible that your father could have died when you were a young child, leaving a sense of loss. Although you may find it difficult, moments of quiet reflection will ultimately prove to have a healing effect on any emotional pain. You may even discover a sense of being deeply connected with the psychic world.

The Sun is in Scorpio

Your Sun is in the Zodiac Sign of Scorpio indicating that you're a passionate and intense individual, who likes to experience life at a very deep level. None of the superficial skating over life's surface for you. You like to penetrate life's mysteries and the intricacies of personal relationships. You demand an intimacy and honesty in your life that can be challenging to others. For this reason you may experience the crisis of loss as you frighten other people away with your intensity. However, you will soon become an expert at dealing with these crises and you will discover an ability to attract other individuals who treasure your ability to face life honestly. In fact you're an excellent counsellor as you're insightful and not frightened of tackling the minefield of emotions which surround subjects such as death, sexuality and metaphysical experiences. Ironically while you demand soul bearing from others, there is a secretive side of yourself, which if violated can spark the scorpion in you.

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!

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.

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 8th House

The Moon is placed in the 8th House of your birth chart suggesting that you are a sensitive person. Your emotional antennae are switched on to “high”. This may have something to do with an event connected to your mother or childhood. You may develop a facade to try to protect your sensitive feelings, but beneath this outer layer you are aware of the emotional undercurrents on most situations. As a result you may develop a need to understand the cycles of life and the metaphysical nature of the world. Why do people behave in the way that they do? What affect do the natural cycles have on human behaviour? What happens after death? Why do certain events seem to be synchronised? These are all questions which could be food for thought. You may even go further and delve into metaphysical matters. On the other hand you may seek security through the material world, and seek to accumulate wealth. Your early childhood experiences opened many doors of enquiry, which can't be closed. You've the ability to develop your interest in the occult world and to use your discoveries for practical results in your own and other people's lives. Although financial gain can't make up for the possible upsets that you suffered earlier in life, you're likely to benefit through inheritances, particularly from your mother's side of the family. This, of course, depends on other influences in your birth chart. In some cases it's the lack of financial support during childhood which can deeply affect your adult life. If this is the case you may seek comfort through other people's resources – monetary and emotional - whether this is through joint projects or investments.

The Moon is in Cancer

With the Moon in the sign of Cancer you're the homebody of the zodiac, enjoying the comfort of being surrounded by loved ones in your own home. You enjoy the feeling of belonging to a tribe, be it your own family or a tribe of friends. You're an understanding person, with strong feelings of sympathy. You also enjoy looking after others either through cooking them something tasty or simply lending an ear to their troubles. For this reason you are often the person to whom others turn in a crisis. Friends and family can often be found in your kitchen with a comforting cuppa. In fact have you noticed how you also have a tendency to attract stray animals? Loyalty features strongly in your life, although you need to take care that you bestow your loyalty with some discrimination. Sometimes strong emotions, which seem true at the time, can be seen to be misplaced with hindsight. Depending on other aspects in your chart, it's likely that you'll feel a strong emotional bond with your mother. You may have difficulty in breaking this bond, and therefore in leaving home. Astrologically speaking, the Moon is in its own rulership in Cancer, emphasising the benefits of emotional satisfaction through caring for others.

The Moon is Opposite 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.
