1How to

interpret your Horoscope

Many of us have contradictory personalities, a fact that a horoscope will of course reflect. Don’t be surprised if parts of the interpretation of your horoscope seem contradictory. One and the same person can be miserly in one way and generous in another. Paying careful attention to the particular sign described will clarify the apparent contradiction.

Horoscope Chart/Zodiac

The horoscope cast at birth is an observation of the sky and of the configuration of the planets at the instant of birth. Our horoscope begins with your personal chart of the zodiac.

Time of Birth

The precise moment of birth is essential to casting a personal horoscope. An error of a mere ten minutes can be of vital importance. The moment of your birth in local time is translated to a time scale applicable the world over: GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) or - better - UT(C) (Coordinated) Universal Time.

Aspect

The concept “aspect” refers to the geometric relationship of angles between planets. These relationships are based on the fact that the distance of angles causes a reciprocal effect between planets. These distances between angles (0°, 45°, 120° etc.) are called aspects. Aspects can strengthen or weaken one another.

Effect

Qualities

The three kinds of energies under which signs of the zodiac are classified: cardinal, fixed and mutable. They represent different types of activity. Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) are enterprising, active, initiating. Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) are persistent, determined and resourceful. Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) are versatile, adaptable and flexible.

Elements

The four fundamental substances (fire, earth, air and water) under which the signs of the zodiac are classified. Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) are energetic and enthusiastic; earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) are practical and stable; air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius) are communicative and intellectual; water signs (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) are emotional and imaginative.

AC - Ascendant - Rising Sign

The sign of the zodiac that was rising on the eastern horizon at the time of birth and the point in a birth chart that marks the cusp of the First House. The Ascendant characterises a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outward approach to life. In a birth chart, planets at or near the line of the Ascendant strength and power of a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self.

Houses

The heavens are divided into twelve houses or signs of the zodiac of which six are above and six below the horizon relative to a particular birthplace. This makes it possible to interpret precisely the influence of the stars and the zodiac, each house relating to a specific area of your life. The interpretation itself depends on the planets in each house and their positions relative to one another as in the pages before dealing with aspects.

SUN in AQUARIUS

`_K

Idealistic, inventive and original, Aquarius can all too easily seem aloof, detached, or just plain cranky. Water-Bearer’s tendency to go against the grain can separate them from other people, even the more abstract “humanity” they are trying to help. More than any other sign, Aquarius have a human connection and they seek to bring all humans together without regard for any of the imaginary divisions humans themselves have created. This same disregard for human difference, though, might leave WaterBearers without any close relationships of their own. Have you ever heard the line “I love humankind. It’s people I can’t stand”? It’s likely that this was first spoken by an Aquarian. Water-Bearers’ strongest trait is their intellectual independence, their refusal to be pigeonholed. Water-Bearers really do hear a “different drummer”, and it may even be they who are playing those drums. Aquarians can be radicals, renegades or bohemians, too, but depending on other factors in the chart, this might not be obvious. They can look perfectly normal yet have very different ideas. So even though they might pass for one of us, they don’t feel like us. It’s almost as though they’re aliens from another star system, living in human bodies. WaterBearers often experiment with or observe friends, mates, or partners, just to see what they will do under a particular set of circumstances and they can be very detached about this process – although the results might be enough to keep them interested in a person!

MOON in SAGITTARIUS Adaptable Moon in Sagittarius is always out there, with an emotional nature made for making friends and experiencing the new and unexpected. Sagittarius Moon loves adventure, excitement, discovery and a plain old good time. You won’t find shrinking violets here, nor will you find moody brooders. You might not find anyone here: Sagittarius Moons love to be free and they may be off on yet another adventure. Moon in Sagittarius is eager for the truth and, in seeking that truth, will feel through its experiences.

a_I

MERCURY in CAPRICORN In Capricorn, Mercury is a hard worker, storing up those facts and figures for future practical use. Cautious and methodical, a Mercury in Capricorn knows what it wants and how it plans to get it. Because what matters here is how the mind is used and what it is used for, Mercury in Capricorn is an organised mind.

b_J

VENUS in SAGITTARIUS

c_I

Lighthearted and idealistic, Venus in Sagittarius is all about the adventure and excitement love can bring, so it’s not always a love that lasts. Friendships do last here, though, and a Venus in Sagittarius always has lots of friends. Venus’s aesthetic sense usually manifests itself in a creative lifestyle in Sagittarius because Venus loves its freedom here. Outgoing and perhaps even flirtatious, Venus in Sagittarius is an expansive love.

MARS in AQUARIUS Far-sighted Mars in Sagittarius is often at the forefront of adventure – and might be just as quickly off on yet another adventure. Mars here is daring and bold and also open and honest, but its energies can be scattered and its openness is a little too frank for some. Because Mars in Sagittarius has strong philosophical or religious convictions, it can manifest itself in a cause or patriotism. Above all, Mars in Sagittarius is an exploring energy.

d_K

JUPITER in LEO

e_E

Noble Jupiter in Leo is big-hearted and self-confident and radiates warmth and generosity. Jupiter in Leo thinks big and can inspire others to think big as well. Jupiter in Leo creates leaders that groups eagerly follow. With its flair for drama and its charismatic charm, Jupiter in Leo can sometimes get big-headed, but overall, Jupiter in Leo grows magnanimously.

SATURN in VIRGO

f _F

Responsible Saturn in practical Virgo is efficient and effective. Somewhat conservative, Saturn helps Virgo achieve its goals to perfection with a “waste not, want not” attitude and approach. At the same time, Saturn in Virgo can be driven, letting nothing stand in its way, especially pleasure. This can make for a serious nature in this placement, and the lesson for Saturn in Virgo is to learn to work first but then enjoy life and living.

URANUS in SCORPIO

g_H

Uranus in Scorpio is a powerful pairing and during this time, both the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant (1979) and the volcano Mount St. Helens (1980) had unexpected explosions. Those born with Uranus in Scorpio are just now beginning to discover their power for change and also are discovering what can happen when power and sexuality are misunderstood, as in the case of AIDS. This pairing has the potential to awaken others to what is really happening and liberates powerfully.

NEPTUNE in SAGITTARIUS

h _I

Neptune in Sagittarius is open, honest and idealistic and astrologers put great store by the generation born in Sagittarius, the sign of higher learning, philosophy and freedom. During its last transit here, we saw Watergate brought out in the open and Jimmy Carter, an idealistic Washington outsider, elected President. Neptune’s last transit also was a period of universal travel, as millions of people began to see the world. New and mystical religions sprang up all over and music and art were often spiritually oriented. Personal fitness and outdoor sports also became popular. Neptune in Sagittarius natives often feel a need for greater religious and philosophical values and might revise existing laws or ways of thing to reflect that need. Neptune in Sagittarius is prophetically inspired.

PLUTO in LIBRA The most recent Pluto in Libra period brought both prison reform (and prison riots) and changes in the arts and international relations. Libra’s egalitarianism was manifested here in everything from the end of the war in Vietnam, to Nixon’s trip to China, to the healing of the nation after the storm of Watergate. Pluto in Libra natives seek harmony and cooperation, and, as this generation reaches adulthood, we can already see the results of their Plutonian energies in their music and writing.

P_G

SCORPIO ASCENDANT There’s nothing halfway about a Rising Scorpio; they put the whole force of their intense personality behind everything they do. Rising Scorps are often very magnetic and attract others easily. Watery Rising Scorps aren’t really interested in surface chitchat, and their intensity might initially intimidate others. Someone once described this personality as similar to Oya, the Nigerian goddess of rainstorms and sudden change, stirring up a calm, motionless lake. Scorpio Rising is a strong indicator of people born with a need to control because that’s when things feel safest to them. Major difficulties in the early environment and home life may have encouraged them to take control so they would feel safe. After all, people don’t worry about feeling safe unless they feel very vulnerable. Rising Scorps’ greatest challenge is to learn how to control themselves and stop controlling others. Rising Scorps are learning about the life force as a path to the god of their understanding, the Universe or the Source. The mask of Scorpio is secrecy; Scorpio Rising can act as a double disguise. Rising Scorps might use manipulation or deception to rise to power, and they might move quietly in the wings until their rise has been completed.

SUN in SAGITTARIUS

`_I

Sagittarius thrive on independence and freedom and they never tire of a change of scenery. Sure, they might forget your date or miss that important deadline, but you can also count on them to get even the dullest of parties moving. Archers are ruled by Jupiter, the king of the Roman gods, and the planet of good fortune, optimism, expansion and abundance. (The word jovial is a derivative of the Latin form of Jupiter.) Jupiter is a fortunate ruler, and Archers tend to be freedom-loving, energetic people. Archers’ enthusiasm is bound to be contagious, but their lack of commitment can annoy other more responsible signs. Their generosity might spill into excessiveness, their optimism might make them blind to details and their honesty can make their remarks sound blunt or inconsiderate. But the carefree adventurousness of Sagittarius can be a welcome change. Most dangerous to Archers can be their tendency toward dogma. Because they’re seeking a universal truth rather than an individual one, they might mistake a trend for that truth and then become rather preachy about its powers. But Archers truly do wish to unite all people under one idea and if they believe they’ve found it, they’re eager to share it with all. Archers speak their truth whether or not you ask for it. They’re candid and outspoken, yet intensely introspective and philosophical. In the long run, for Archers, it’s the getting there that’s more than half the fun: Archers love travel, new places and seeking. Go along for the ride, if you dare. Of course, you’re an Archer yourself, you won’t think twice.

MOON in VIRGO Virgo Moons like to see things – and figure them out – for themselves. Intelligent and practical, they spend whatever time is needed to get to the bottom of what they’re feeling, to not just take it apart, but to put it together again so that it makes perfect sense, a prospect that delights Virgo to no end. Step by step, Moons in Virgo approach everything they do with logic and efficiency, so they can be frustrated by less methodical minds. Conversely, their precision can sometimes seem too rigid to others, but a Moon in Virgo feels with its logic, using its discriminating emotional nature to create a well-ordered emotional life for itself.

a_F

MERCURY in SCORPIO Mercury in Scorpio sees right through semantic disguises to the real meaning behind the words. Mercury here can be critical and quick to judge, and it’s not going to waste time with frivolity, either. Mercury in Scorpio is a probing mind, one that gets to the heart of the matter.

b_H

VENUS in CAPRICORN Careful, cautious Venus in Capricorn makes for a steadfast and loyal companion, one who will stand the test of time. Venus here takes personal attachments very seriously and is often attached to its possessions as much as to people. After love has been proven to Venus in Capricorn, you’ll find commitment, honesty and a lover who is constant and resourceful. Responsible and loyal, Venus in Capricorn is a dedicated love.

c_J

MARS in VIRGO Cool, logical and precise, a Mars in Virgo works very hard to achieve its ambitions – and may even be a workaholic. Mars in Virgo is good at separating its emotions from what needs to be done, bringing both discipline and industry to everything it wants to do. A Mars in Virgo is highly skilled, with fine motor skills or handwork and surgeons and craftsmen often have this placement. Mars here can be strongly passionate, especially for what it sees as the right cause. Mars in Virgo is a systematic energy, clever and shrewd.

d_F

JUPITER in VIRGO

e_F

Practical Jupiter in Virgo values work and service to others, and can succeed through its smarts and perseverance. Even though many point to a conflict between Jupiter’s expansiveness and Virgo’s need for precision, these qualities don’t need to cancel each other out; Jupiter in Virgo can actually use its methodical approach to growth to great ends, Jupiter in Virgo grows pragmatically.

GEMINI ASCENDANT Motion. That’s what you’re going to see in Rising Twins. Restlessness is the hallmark of this ascendant and Rising Twins find their identity by making as many contacts as possible. Rising Twins are often the life of the party and, in fact, are often giving the party. At the same time, Rising Twins are learning to be the eternal youth, free spirit, entertainer, artist or comedian. They can also be the troubadour minstrel, court jester, trickster, or clown or the coyote that leaves a surprise. Remember that the court jester was the only one who could tell the King the truth and not be killed for it (another form of messenger). Rising Twins are learning how to communicate truthfully without getting creamed for it. A Gemini ascendant will appear excitable and quick – and also prone to upset. At the same time, there’s an aloofness here: Twins’ connections are made on a mental field, which can often leave emotions out in the cold.

3 What is

Synastry

Synastry is the system of comparing the astrological charts of two (or sometimes more) people to determine how well they will get along in the different areas of their lives.

The Aspects By looking at one person’s chart, and measuring the distance in degrees from that person’s planets to the planets in another person’s chart, we can make certain predictions about where the strengths and weaknesses of the relationship are: whether it has staying power; in what ways the people involved are compatible or incompatible; which of the partners will take the lead in certain situations; and what problems these people may have to overcome in the course of their involvement with each other. The measurements we use to make these determinations are called aspects. The main aspects employed in synastry analysis are the conjunction, sextile, square, trine and opposition, as explained on page 5. For instance, if John’s Moon (his feelings, domestic life and moods) is trine Jane’s Venus (her aesthetic sense and romantic urges) the planetary energies combine quite nicely and we would expect these two to relate easily and to be sensitive to one another’s feelings. But if John’s Mars (his aggressive, competitive urges) is also square Jane’s Mercury (her mental processes, communications and ideas) these planetary energies clash, and we can expect them to have some heated arguments because his aggressive urges are stirred up by her words and ideas. So, does this mean they will or will not get along?

It means that, like almost all couples, there will be areas of life where things hum along nicely with virtually no problems, and there will be other areas of life that are occasionally challenging. Often, when people look at their chart comparison for the first time they will notice some negative aspects between their charts and become worried. But this is not necessarily cause for concern. Even the most idyllic match usually shows some areas of discord. Every relationship needs some dynamic tension if the individuals involved are to grow. A bit of challenge also brings excitement into the relationship. Without sexual tension, for instance, you can have a lovely friendship, but it may not go beyond that. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important is that the comparison in general shows compatibility.

Comparative House Placements In addition to looking at the aspects between the planets in the two charts, we observe where the planets of one personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chart fall in the houses of the other. No matter what your sign is, all the other signs -- Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces -- are represented in your chart as well. Your chart will show your rising sign or Ascendant on the first house cusp, and the other eleven signs on the cusps of the other eleven houses. Assuming for the moment that you have Aries rising, your second house will then be Taurus, your third house will be Gemini, your fourth will be Cancer, your fifth, Leo, and so on, throughout your chart. But, if you have Gemini rising, your second house will be Cancer, your third, Leo, your fourth, Virgo, and so on, throughout the signs. So, if you are a Taurus (or, in other words, if you have Sun in Taurus) but your rising sign (also known as the Ascendant or First House cusp) is in Aries, your Sun will fall in your second house. Because the second house represents values, both tangible and intangible, your life force (Sun) will be focused to a great extent on what you value. If your rising sign is Scorpio, your Taurus Sun will fall in your seventh house (the house of marriage and important partnerships) and your life force will be strongly focused on meaningful relationships. If your rising sign is Capricorn, your Taurus Sun will fall in your fifth house, the house of romance, partying and children, and your life force will be focused on these issues. Just as your planets fall in different houses -- and affect you in different ways, depending on the houses they are in -- so the planets of the people in your life will fall in different houses of your chart. And the energies of these people will affect you in different ways, depending on which of your houses the planets fall into. 27

So, getting back to John and Jane again, if his Venus (aesthetic sense, romance) falls in her seventh house (marriage and other important partnerships) he is likely to impress her as a exactly what sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking for in a marriage partner. But, if his Saturn (limits, responsibilities, hard lessons) falls in her eleventh house (friends, hopes, associations) she may have to adjust her social life or aspirations somewhat in order to make a go of her marriage to him, and there may be occasional clashes between friendships and marital responsibilities.

What to look for in a Synastry Comparison The most important considerations in a synastry comparison are aspects to, and comparative house positions of the Sun, Moon, Venus, Mars, Saturn, and the Ascendant/ Descendant(first and seventh house cusps). Typically, Mars and Venus show attraction. Sun, Moon, Descendant and Saturn show emotional/ego satisfaction and staying power. The moonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nodes and the tenth house/fourth house are considered next in importance. Mercury and Jupiter play supporting roles and when well-aspected, can add to the quality of a relationship; but in and of themselves they will not determine any major impact on the people involved, unless itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a purely business relationship. The outer planets, from Uranus through Pluto, play far more limited roles in determining the dynamics of a relationship. These outer planets take on greater importance, however, when in very close aspect to (orbs of two degrees or less), or involved in a multiple-planet conjunction with, the Sun, Moon, Mars or Venus.

With Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sun conjunct Janeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Venus you are likely to share similar values as well as to appreciate similar forms of music and entertainment -which you should get out and enjoy together as much as possible.

John’ s pl a nets 3 aspecting Jane’s planets 2

Sun conjunct Moon

`Qa

This usually indicates a harmonious relationship, especially because the Sun person is male and Moon person is female. Jane often provides the ego nurturing that John needs and craves. John is likely to have a powerful effect on Jane’s emotions and may dominate the relationship -- which was just fine in Grandma’s days, but may present some problems for couples in an age where greater emphasis is placed on equality. Nevertheless, this is one of the best indicators of a strong mutual physical attraction. In fact, in Carl Jung’s now famous astrology experiments in synchronicity, this was the aspect most frequently noted between married couples (male sun/female moon).

Sun conjunct Venus

`Qc

This conjunction is generally favourable for a sexual relationship and often indicates mutual attraction. You are likely to share similar values as well as to appreciate similar forms of music and entertainment -- which you should get out and enjoy together as much as possible. Jane is likely to go out of her way to satisfy the ego needs of John and John will probably feel a certain sense of pride in being associated with Jane.

Sun conjunct Neptune

As Neptune takes many years to move through a sign, aspects to or from one person’s Neptune to another’s planets are not usually particularly significant in one-to-one relationships. Instead these aspects show how John responds to an entire generation of people with Neptune in more or less the same position; this may include John himself if part of the same generation. That being said, there is a tendency for John to experience heightened idealism and romanticism about people whose Neptune is so closely connected with his Sun. There is also the potential for disillusionment because John may see Jane as something other than she is. As this is a close conjunction, it may also indicate an intuitive link between the partners.

`Qh

Sun sextile Pluto

Because Pluto spends so many years in each sign, everyone born within a few years of each other will have Pluto in more or less the same position. This sextile is therefore more significant as an indicator of the Sun person’s response to an entire generation than as a trait in a one-to-one relationship. As the aspect is within two degrees of exact, you can help each other achieve goals that might be beyond either’s individual reach. You’re also likely to bring out each other’s drive, will and desire to change things for the better.

`VP

Moon conjunct Midheaven

This is a generally favourable aspect, although there may be occasional conflicts between you about the relative importance of home/family versus business. Jane can provide security and direction for John, and may elevate John’s status. John tends to provide a stable base for Jane, from which she can rise in a profession or career. This is a particularly good aspect for business relationships, especially family businesses.

aQr

Venus trine Saturn

This comparative aspect generally indicates a secure, steady relationship. You are likely to feel responsibility and loyalty toward each other and to show your affection in quiet ways. Jane gives John a sense of security and stability; John lightens Jane’s mood and helps her learn to indulge more. This is a good aspect to find in a relationship if you plan to make a long-term commitment.

cSf 33

Mars conjunct Midheaven

dQr

There is a potential for professional competitiveness between you. In fact, you may both place so much emphasis on career matters, that you give each other short shrift. You can spur each other on in career activities, which may aid in your advance, but you may encourage each other to take action without first thinking things through. The best use of this energy, especially if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the same or in complementary professions, is to motivate and inspire each other to race to the top.

Jupiter conjunct Midheaven

eQr

Mutual support is likely with this aspect, especially in professional matters and issues of social success. You can aid each other in achieving your life goals, career advancement and higher status. Each of you can encourage the other to attempt more, to believe in your self-worth, and in your ability to get what you want out of life.

Neptune sextile Pluto

hVP

This is a generational aspect, of little significance in one-to-one relationships. Members of each of your generations are likely to hold some compatible attitudes regarding issues of psychology, the occult, and the world beyond the senses in general.

Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Moon conjunct Janeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Midheaven is a particularly good aspect for business relationships, especially family businesses.

Jane’ s pl a nets 3 aspecting John’s planets 3

Moon conjunct Neptune

aQh

As Neptune takes many years to move through a sign, aspects to or from one person’s Neptune to another’s planets are not particularly significant in one-to-one relationships. This aspect therefore shows how Jane responds to an entire generation, including herself if a part of that generation, more than it points to potentials in any particular relationship. As this conjunction is very close (within one degree or so) it can sometimes indicate an intuitive link between the partners. There is also likely to be a sharing of ideals and perhaps fantasies. There is a tendency, with a very close conjunction, for Jane to see only the best in John, which can naturally lead to disillusionment down the line.

Moon sextile Pluto

aVP

Because Pluto spends so many years in each sign, everyone born within a few years of each other will have Pluto in more or less the same position. This sextile is therefore more significant as an indicator of Jane’s response to an entire generation than as a trait in a one-to-one relationship. As the aspect is within a degree of exact, there is likely to be intense emotionalism in the relationship that encourages each of you to probe more deeply into your psyches. You can also help each other implement tremendous changes for the better in your lives.

Mercury trine Saturn

This is an excellent comparative aspect for business relationships. It is equally good for people working together in any capacity. Jane can take care of details and procedures; John, the long-range planning. Together, you can make a formidable team that combines discipline, quick-thinking, good negotiating skills and planning capabilities.

bSf

Venus conjunct Neptune

This conjunction is more significant as a generational rather than a personal relationship indicator. Neptune spends about 14-15 years, on average, in each sign, so virtually everyone born within a few years of John will have Neptune in conjunction with the Janeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Venus. The conjunction may be significant as it is within a degree or two of exact, in which case, this can be a highly spiritual relationship, with potential for intuitive communication between the partners. There is also likely to be shared taste in music and art.

cQh

Jane’ s pl a nets 3 aspecting John’s houses 4

HOUSE THREE

The third house is involved in communication, basic schooling and training, siblings, neighbourhood, community activities and extended family. When another person’s planets fall in your third house, the energies symbolized by those planets will have an impact on the issues of the house. For instance, if a friend’s Venus (the planet of romance, relationship, emotion, art, luxury, among other things) falls in your third house, your emotional response toward this person might be in some way similar to what you would feel toward a sibling, or you might communicate emotionally with one another.

Jupiter in House 3

Jane can help the John expand his intellectual, educational and communication horizons, and to add depth to his ideas. John can keep Jane on track with details and organization when Jane begins to get too expansive or scattered. You tend to be good travelling companions and are likely to enjoy discussions and other forms of communication with each other.

HOUSE FOUR

The fourth house rules the home, real estate, your mother (and your mothering instincts), as well as home, domestic and family situations in general. It is also the house ruling your final resting place. Those whose planets fall in your fourth house will affect you on a deep level, and may arouse your protective and nurturing instincts. If the Sun, Moon, Venus, Jupiter or Ascendant of another falls in your fourth house, you may make good house mates or domestic partners.

Saturn in House 4

The placement of Saturn in the fourth house can indicate that you will have to deal with heavy family and domestic responsibilities at some point in your relationship. Occasionally, it shows a potential for trouble between Jane and John’s mother, or other close family member. Jane can bring security to John’s domestic situation, but may occasionally be unresponsive, to or unsympathetic toward John’s feelings.

HOUSE FIVE

Some astrologers refer to the fifth as the party house, and it’s an apt description. The fifth house presides over entertainment and fun of all kinds; including romance, gambling, parties, creativity and pleasure in general. It is also the house of children, and may describe certain traits of your first child. When the planets of another fall into your fifth house, the energies of these planets will have an affect on what you do, think and feel about fifth house issues. If someone’s Sun falls into your fifth house, for instance, you may be attracted to that person as a romantic partner or as someone to simply go out and have good times with.

Pluto in House 5

This can add depth and intensity to a romance or flirtation, but it usually requires close aspects from Pluto to John’s personal planets to activate its full potential.

HOUSE SIX

The morning after the partying of the fifth house, you’ve got to get back down to business, and that’s what the sixth house is about. It rules work, health, service, worries, diet, dress, personal habits and other mundane, but necessary details of life. When someone else’s planets fall into your sixth house, the energies of those planets will affect the way you respond to the above sixth house issues. If, for instance, someone’s Saturn is in your sixth house, he or she might be an authority (Saturn rules authority figures) who you consult about health, such as a doctor; or he or she might be your boss at work.

Moon in House 6

This comparative placement often occurs when a relationship centres around a workplace, health club, medical office; any place or in any situation where a service is rendered. The moods of Jane can have an impact on John’s sense of well-being. The rules and methods of John can affect the emotions of Jane. There may be problems arising from a difference in approach to neatness, hygiene or organization.

Venus in House 6

Often, with this placement, your relationship will have started as a result of your working together, or meeting in a work environment. Jane can help John make working conditions more pleasant, gracious and socially enjoyable, but may also encourage laziness. Jane is likely to have a favourable impact on John’s diet, fashion sense and health habits.

Uranus in House 6

Jane is likely to have a surprising effect on John’s work situation, health habits or dress. Jane may introduce John to different attitudes concerning diet, work or fitness.

Neptune in House 6

Jane can inspire John to strive toward an ideal in work, health, fitness, diet or dress. However, if Neptune makes any harsh major aspects to John’s planets, you may encourage each other either to have unrealistic expectations in these areas or to do things regarding the above in ways that are not in your best interests.

HOUSE EIGHT

The eighth house deals with a host of intense and weighty issues: death, obsessions, repression, jealousy, taxes, joint resources, inheritances and other people’s possessions. It also represents what you want or need sexually. When someone else’s planets fall in your eighth house, the energies of those planets will have an impact on how you think, feel and act concerning eighth house issues. If, for instance, your rich old Great-Uncle Harry’s Jupiter falls in your eighth house, he might bequeath you a generous inheritance in his will.

Mercury in House 8

With Mercury here, there is the possibility that you will be overly critical of one another concerning the handling of joint resources, taxes, insurance and inheritances. Jane can stimulate John to think and talk about deep and profound issues. John’s resources can affect Jane’s ideas and discussions.

HOUSE NINE

The ninth house is directly opposite the third in your chart and represents a higher order of some of the issues governed by the third house. Foreign travel or other long trips, higher learning, philosophy, culture, religion, law and book publishing are all matters related to this house. When the planets of another person fall into your ninth house, the energies of those planets can affect how you respond to ninth house issues. For instance, if a friend’s Uranus, the planet of innovation and surprises, falls in your ninth, he or she might introduce you to a new philosophical system or a new way of thinking about situations or events; or he/she might be the perfect travelling companion for an adventurous trip.

Sun in House 9

Jane can have a rousing effect on John’s sense of adventure and need to explore -- either intellectually or actively. Jane’s philosophy, beliefs and knowledge are likely to have an impact on the way John views the world. You can spur each other to greater ideas, and can cover a lot of territory, mentally and physically, through association with each other.

Mars in House 9

You can encourage each other in adventures, travel and intellectual competition. Jane can stimulate John to actively pursue ideals or to aggressively state opinions. There is a slight potential for legal conflict, if other chart factors support this, especially if there are major harsh aspects from Mars to planets in the ninth house.

With Janeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jupiter in Johns 3rd House you tend to be good travelling companions and are likely to enjoy discussions and other forms of communication with each other.

HOUSE ONE

This is the house of self expression. The sign on the cusp of this house is called your rising sign or Ascendant. It shows your self image, the face you show the world and how others see you. The image you present can either be quite close to or very different from the inner you, depending on whether your Ascendant is in a sign that is similar or different in characteristics to the signs your Sun and Moon are in. When the planets of your partner or another fall into this, your most personal house, you will relate to the energies of that person, represented by those planets, in a very personal and immediate way; there may be a kind of instant recognition between you in these areas. For instance, if the Mercury of another person (which rules communications, short trips, thoughts, worries, and work, among other issues) falls into your first house, you may find that you instantly recognize, and/or identify with, the ways that person communicates or the ideas he or she has.

Sun in House 1

You are likely to feel an immediate identification with each other; more so the closer the Sun is to the Ascendant. John can strongly influence the self-image and ego expression of Jane and this may challenge Jane to be more assertive. Although not, by itself, an indication of sexual attraction, the Sun of one partner in the first house of the other indicates that you two can think and act as one in many circumstances, thus supporting any relationship you form together.

Mercury in House 1

There is likely to be a great deal of communication between you. John is likely to stimulate Jane’s thought processes and his ideas can influence Jane’s self-image. If Mercury makes any harsh aspects to planets in Jane’s chart, John may be overly critical of Jane.

Uranus in House 1

John can be a shock to the system for Jane. This is likely to be an exciting relationship that shakes up Jane’s self-image and actions. John can help Jane explore issues of personal freedom and break away from old patterns of behaviour.

HOUSE TWO

This is the house of what you have, both in a tangible and intangible sense. It rules your possessions, your values and what you have to give sexually to your partner. When the planets of another person fall into this house, you are likely to experience the energies symbolised by those planets as having an impact on your sense of self-worth, your possessions, your material security or your personal value system.

Venus in House 2

You are likely to share similar values and to have similar tastes in art, luxury items and valuable material possessions. Jane’s material worth and/or ethical values may benefit from association with John. There may be too much emphasis on material things in this relationship and/or each of you may encourage the other to unwise or frivolous expenditures.

Neptune in House 2

There may be a slight danger that John will encourage Jane in unrealistic business ventures or in sloppy budgeting methods that can have a negative financial impact. There is also a slight danger that John will be a drain on Jane’s finances or resources, especially if other major aspects, such as squares or oppositions from Neptune to Jane’s planets, support this.

HOUSE TEN

Achievement, professional life, authority, status and ambition are all governed by the tenth house, also known as the Midheaven. This is also the house that represents your father, just as the fourth house represents your mother. (Please note: in some families, where the mother was the dominant parent, or the father was the greater nurturer of the two, the house rulership works better in reverse, with the fourth representing the father; the tenth the mother. Usually, however, the traditional rulership works best. ) When the planets of another person fall in your tenth house, the energies of those planets will affect the way you respond to tenth house issues. For instance, if someone’s Mars, the planet of competitiveness and aggression, falls here, you might find yourself in professional competition with him or her.

Moon in House 10

With this comparative placement, there could be a link between John’s emotions or family/ domestic situation and Jane’s career, status or profession. John can either provide the emotional support necessary for Jane to rise professionally, or else John’s moodiness and other emotional issues can challenge Jane’s ability to advance.

Mars in House 10

This placement can mean that you have a stimulating effect on each other’s ambitions. John especially, can spur Jane to climb more aggressively in her career. If you are in the same profession, you are likely to compete with, and challenge each other to do better. If there are harsh major aspects from Mars to Jane’s chart, disagreements over professional matters can have a detrimental effect on your personal relationship.

Jupiter in House 10

This placement is favourable for professional partnerships. John can have a positive impact on Jane’s professional standing and status. Jane can help John gain recognition for beliefs, causes and opinions. If Jupiter makes harsh major aspects to Jane’s planets, John may encourage Jane to be more optimistic and less cautious than is practical in career matters.

Saturn in House 10

This is Saturn’s natural house, and it is an excellent position if you two are involved in any sort of professional activities together. You can aid each other in your respective careers and help each other gain greater status. There is a slight possibility of competition between you, but this may have a beneficial effect if it causes you to work harder and achieve more. If Saturn makes harsh major aspects to Jane’s planets, one of you may rise in his or her profession at the expense of the other’s ambitions.

HOUSE ELEVEN

Friends, acquaintances, associates, associations, clubs, and virtually any other group you feel a part of are all matters related to the eleventh house. This is also the house governing your hopes, wishes and professional values (personal values are matters of the second house). When someone else’s planets fall here in your chart, the energies of those planets will affect your reactions to eleventh house issues. For instance, if a friend’s Pluto, the planet of power, falls in your eleventh, your association with that person can potentially bring you greater power and control.

Pluto in House 11

John can help Jane focus on achieving her hopes and wishes, and may also have a transformative effect on those hopes. Generally, this requires close aspects between Pluto and Jane’s personal planets in order for these potentials to be fully activated.
