What this report won’t do This report will not predict your future nor will it judge you. All positives and negatives that are expressed are in the context of “tendencies.”

What this report does All of the signs, aspects, planets, numerological associations et al. are mere expressions of tendencies, it is an entirely subjective philosophy that is expressed as an art form not a science.

The report is also shared so that you can validate or in some cases invalidate thoughts that you may have had. Sometimes hearing information like this from third parties makes it easier to re-­‐ evaluate or validate certain behavior patterns.

This is a dedication of Kharmic energies that I believe that you have already earned by the good that you bring to the earth. All of the information points to a being constantly ascending towards the highest possible self. Hotep Namaste

The planets are important in a natal chart reading in Tropical Astrology because each of the planets deal with different parts of each persons personality. A great example would be where your Mercury or Venus is placed. Mercury is how we think, plan, perceive and generally understand the world around us and how we communicate. While Venus influences our ethics, romantic love and care for others. Venus also influences how we demonstrate that which is in our hearts.

 In Tropical Astrology, each house is

associated with every sign of the zodiac.  They are considered life areas.  You should look at it as the stage that each planet performs on.  So if you have Venus in Aries , you are ethical with a strong and passionate zest for life.  Since this takes place in the 9th house, it means that you are always doing your very best with the things in life that you are passionate about..

 You tend to always be

expanding your philosophical and spiritual horizons and always seeking growth.  The house always is associated with an element.  The 9th house belongs to Sagittarius and your Venus is in Aries which are both Fire-­‐signs so you are very passionate and fiery or action oriented, to say the very least.

 The Main Houses are:  The Ascendant/Rising #1  The Descendant # 7  Imun Coeli #4  Media Coeli Midheaven #10  These are considered the “angular”

houses because they form a “square” in Geometry.  However each sign has an “opposition” which is 180º degrees or half-­‐way around the circle.

Please Notice:

 House #1, Fire, Aries, Cardinal  House # 7, Air, Libra, Cardinal  House #4, Water, Cancer, Cardinal  House #10, Earth, Capricorn, Cardinal  Each “angular” house is at a 90º degree angle to

each other. They begin all of the seasons and there is one representative from each element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water)

Wow if you get angry there is no wrath that can match it!

The Life Path 1 suggests that you entered this plane of existence the with skills allowing you to become a leader with ease. Your nature is charged with individualistic desires, a demand for independence, and the need for personal attainment. Many of our military generals, corporate leaders, and political leaders are men and women having the Life Path 1. When you display positive 1 traits your mind is capable of significant creative inspiration, and it possesses the enthusiasm and drive to accomplish a great deal. You are very good at getting the ball rolling; initiating new projects is your forte. You are at your best when confronted with obstacles and challenges, as you combat these with strength and daring. This is both the physical and inner varieties of strength. With this strength comes utter determination and the capability to lead.

As a natural leader you have a flair for taking charge of any situation. You have a tendency to do this, even if, at times, it is not appropriate for you to do so.

Highly original, you may have talents as an inventor or innovator of some sort. In any work that you choose, your independent attitude can show through. You have very strong personal needs and desires, and you feel it is always necessary to follow your own convictions. You can tire of routine and highly detailed tasks rather quickly.

You are ambitious and assertive in promoting yourself.

Although you may hide the fact for social reasons, you can be self-­‐centered and demand to have your way in many circumstances. That said, for the most part, you are considered very good company, friendly, good-­‐natured, and a wonderful conversationalist. People like you and are drawn to you. It is a good thing they are, because you are very sensitive to disapproval and you don't handle it very well.

There are several ways that the negative side of the 1 can show up. The 1 always has the potential for greatness as a leader, but they may fail as a follower. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to follow for a while before you are allowed to lead and this can be a difficult time. When the 1 Life Path person is not fully developed and expressing the negative side of this number, the demeanor may appear very dependent rather than independent, particularly in the early years. If you are expressing this negative trait of the number 1, you are likely to be very dissatisfied with your circumstances, and long for self-­‐ sufficiency. This might be defined as the weak or dependent side of the negative 1 Life Path. On the strong side of this negative curve, the 1 energy can become too self-­‐serving, selfish and egotistical. Avoid being too bossy and demanding.

THE JUDGMENT Influence. Success. Perseverance furthers. To take a maiden to wife brings good fortune. The weak element is above, the strong below; hence their powers attract each other, so that they unite. This brings about success, for all success depends on the effect of mutual attraction. By keeping still within while experiencing joy without, one can prevent the joy from going to excess and hold it within proper bounds. This is the meaning of the added admonition, "Perseverance furthers," for it is perseverance that makes the difference between seduction and courtship; in the latter the strong man takes a position inferior to that of the weak girl and shows consideration for her. This attraction between affinities is a general law of nature. Heaven and earth attract each other and thus all creatures come into being. Through such attraction the sage influences men's hearts, and thus the world attains peace. From the attractions they exert we can learn the nature of all beings in heaven and on earth.

Your date of birth corresponds to the sign Akbal. There are a few variations on the spelling (see the next page) but the general meaning is “night.” There are 20 day signs and 13 tones. On the day that you were born it was tone number 10 with the Night sign. It means that there is a concentrated amount of feminine energy mixed with masculine and direct action oriented personality traits. Venus was at nearly a Superior Conjunction when you were born which means it was seen in the evening sky. Usually people born at this phase do not fight much with tradition unless they perceive of inequality in the system, then charm, charisma and political maneuvering will be used in an effort to create balance.

There is no easy way to summarize such a complex personality and effectively include all the factors that influence your birth chart. This report includes the “astrolosophy” of Tropical Astrology, Eastern Astrology, Numerology, with a small sampling of the I-­‐Ching (pronounced “yee-­‐jing”) and Mayan/Aztec understanding of space-­‐time. This report does not attempt to make any predictions but actually puts together a personality profile so that the individual can choose to improve the quality of their life based on the strengths and weaknesses that are identified and discussed.
