    The interpretation of your astrology chart begins on the

following page.

 

    You will find that the interpretation of your chart is

written in simple language, uncluttered by astrological jargon.

If a statement appears to contradict another statement, then you

exhibit these opposite qualities at different times in your

life. For example, a statement that you are highly sociable and

gregarious and a statement that you prefer solitude seemingly

contradict each other; this means that you vacillate, and need

both sociability and solitude at different times.

 

    The astrological factor that the interpretation is based on

is also given. The astrological factor is given for the benefit

of astrologers and students of astrology. If you are not a

student of astrology, then obviously the factor will not be

meaningful to you, and you can ignore it.

 

    If you find this interpretation of your birth chart

interesting and informative, you might want to discuss your

birth chart with a professional astrologer to learn more about

the astrological influences on your life.

               Chapter 1: General Characteristics

 

     Your fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards

life are symbolized by the four astrological elements. Each

person has their own unique balance of these four basic

energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth

(practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and

intellectual qualities), and water (emotional needs and

feelings).

 

    Your "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that

most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if you are lacking

or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means

that you need to consciously develop that aspect of yourself to

learn to appreciate and/or to work harder in that dimension of

life.

 

    Sometimes we overvalue the element that we are least endowed

with, sensing it as a lack within ourselves, but more often we

neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be

reiterated and explained in more detail in the following

chapters.

 

Fire Element is Strong (F,E,A,W Scores = 21,14,5,9)

 

   You are a fiery individual , filled with tremendous passion

and zest for life. You thrive in situations where there is

energy, excitement, action, movement, dynamism and drama. Along

with your exuberant vitality and enthusiasm, you have an acute

ability to visualize future possibilities, and an almost

childlike faith in "what could be". Unless you have a vision, an

aspiration, or a wonderful dream to believe in, you are not

completely happy. You have a great sense of the majesty, the

grandeur, and the adventure of life but tend to overlook the

magic in small things and everyday life.

 

    You also have a strong urge to express yourself

spontaneously and creatively, without conforming to others ways

or conventions. Personal freedom and independence are very

important to you and you resist being "owned" or dictated to.

Secretly you are apt to feel that you are special, charmed,

somehow above or outside the realm of "ordinary" people and

mundane life.

 

    You have a strong ego and can be excessively proud,

dominating, or concerned with self. You have a positive,

vigorous, active approach to life, and forcing your intentions

and desires upon circumstances feels more natural to you than

flowing with or just allowing life to unfold. Essentially you

are very "yang" (assertive, competitive, outgoing, direct), and

the "yin" qualities of passive acceptance, receptivity,

gentleness, and subtlety do not come easily to you. You inspire

others with your generous spirit, your idealism, spark,

confidence, and joie de vivre, but you can also irritate them

with your self-centeredness and your insistence on expressing

yourself freely without regard for others' needs or opinions.

You also have trouble  being content in the present and would

benefit by learning to consciously pacify your restlessness and

developing the qualities of tranquillity and peacefulness.

 

Fire is Strong and Ascendant is in Water sign:

 

    Although you are energetic and confident, as described

above, you also express yourself with a lot of feeling and

sensitivity, as described in greater detail in the next chapter.

You appear to be less cocksure and narcissistic than you are.

 

 

 

 

  Chapter 2: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others

 

    The following is a description of your basic stance towards

life, the way others see you, the way you come across, the face

you show to the world. In Chapter 3 you will read about the "The

Inner You: Your Real Motivation", which describes the kind of

person you are at heart and where your true priorities lie. Read

this chapter and the next one and compare them - there may be

significant differences between them, in which case "the inner

you" may not shine through and others are in for some surprises

when they get to know you at a more than superficial level. This

chapter describes the costume you wear, your role in life, while

Chapter 3 talks about the real person inside the costume.

 

Pisces Rising:

 

    You are a gentle, sensitive person with a deep understanding

of people and a very tolerant, accepting, nonjudgmental approach

towards life. In a noisy, competitive atmosphere you are often

receding and withdrawn for you are not an aggressive, forceful

person, and you intensely dislike conflict. In fact you tend to

be somewhat passive, to wait, watch, observe, feel and know much

- but to act little. Letting things resolve or work themselves

out in their own way, rather than directing or forcing your will

upon them, is often your way of dealing with problems.

 

    You may have a deeply religious or spiritual feeling about

life, not in the orthodox sense necessarily, but an intuitive

sense of the immensity and underlying oneness of all life, which

makes so many human aspirations and striving seem rather

unimportant. You need peaceful surroundings in order to

flourish, and periods of quiet solitude are essential for your

emotional balance and well-being.

 

    You are also very compassionate and cannot tolerate seeing

any fellow creature suffer - be it human, animal, or even plant!

As a child you probably cried very easily and became quite upset

whenever others were hurt, physically or emotionally. The world

of your imagination and fantasy was also very real to you, a

place to escape to when the outer world became too harsh,

demanding, or simply uninteresting.

 

    Because you are very giving and forgiving, people in need

gravitate to you, sensing your sympathetic nature. Often you

will continue to give to a person even when you realize they are

taking advantage of you or becoming overly dependent upon you.

You overlook and make excuses for other people's weaknesses, and

for your own as well. Discrimination and self-discipline are not

your strong points.

 

    Though you may be as intelligent as anyone, you do not

really have a rational, logical approach toward life, and trying

to reach you through logical arguments is often futile. Your

feelings, intuition, and heart, not your head, lead you, which

may infuriate or bewilder your more rational friends. You

certainly recognize that there is much more to life than can be

explained intellectually and categorized into neat little boxes,

and you have an open, receptive attitude toward such areas as

psychic phenomena, telepathy, parapsychology, etc. You are not

as structured and rigid in your attitudes as many people are,

which enables you to see many different points of view and to

accept all of them as valid. This can lead to vagueness,

uncertainty, and confusion on your part - or to a very flexible

and wholistic way of approaching any issue.

 

Sun Square Asc.:

 

     Despite the fact that your core self is quite a bit

different from the face the world generally sees, you have a

strong desire to be seen and recognized, to be acknowledged, and

to have a significant influence on people in your environment.

You may do remarkable things in order to be noticed. However,

you often don't get the full recognition you wish for.

 

Neptune Square Asc.:

 

     You are extremely sensitive to all of the incoming

impressions and energies around you, and at times you can be

overcome or dominated by more forceful personalities. Learning

to establish clear boundaries is important for you, as you tend

to become enmeshed emotionally and/or psychically with whoever

you are with. You may have the chameleon's trait of seeming to

become the people or person you are with the most.

 

Venus Trine Asc.:

 

     You have an appealing physical appearance and this, along

with your winning ways, is apt to make you a favorite in your

immediate environment. You're the "easy" one, and you know how

to please others. Don't take your personal charm for granted,

however, because you may also seem vain or too needy for

approval.

 

Uranus Trine Asc.:

 

     You appear to be liberal and open-minded. Anything new,

innovative, unusual, or off the beaten track arouses your

interest. You infuse your environment with enthusiasm, new life

and excitement. Though not intentionally disruptive, you do

enjoy startling or waking people up a bit.

 

 

 

 

         Chapter 3: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation

 

Ascendant in Pisces and Sun in Sagittarius:

 

    Because you seem to be such a gentle, tolerant, accepting

person (as mentioned in the previous chapter), you can startle

people with some of your very pointed, bluntly honest

statements. Even though you are sensitive and empathetic, you

can also be quite tactless at times. Your good will and good

intentions, however, usually shine through anyway. With your

free-flowing imagination (described earlier) and your great

restlessness (discussed below), you are apt to be a wanderer,

and perhaps something of an escapist.

 

Sun in Sagittarius:

 

    You are a gambler and an adventurer at heart, one who loves

to take risks, to discover and explore new worlds, and to take

the untried path rather than the safe, reliable one. You are an

independent soul, freedom-loving, and often very restless. You

need a lifestyle that provides opportunities for travel,

movement, change, and meeting new people. A steady routine which

offers much in the way of security but little in the way of

space and freedom is odious to you.

 

    To you, life is a journey, an adventure, endlessly

interesting and rich with possibilities, and it may be difficult

for you to decide where to focus your attention and efforts. You

probably traveled around and experimented with many different

paths before you settled on a particular career. Or you may go

from one project to the next, for once the challenge and vital

interest is gone, you are very quick to move on. Commitment,

discipline, focus, and concentration are not your strong points.

You can be irresponsible and disinclined to take on the burdens

and limitations of adult life.

 

    An incurable optimist, you have big dreams, aspirations, and

hopes for the future and are usually pursuing some distant goal.

You have a great deal of faith and trust in life and failures

don't crush your spirit. You always bounce back from

disappointments, often with another bright dream or scheme. You

have a sporting, playful attitude toward life and are

philosophical about your mistakes. You have the ability to sense

future trends, to see the big picture, and you like to theorize

and speculate. However, attending to all of the details and

practical requirements of implementing your theories is

bothersome to you.

 

    You express yourself in a very open, direct, and

straightforward manner and are often blunt and tactless as well.

Because you do not take yourself too seriously, you may not

realize how deeply your candid statements can wound more

sensitive souls. In fact, though you may not realize it, your

insensitivity and lack of understanding regarding others'

feelings is probably one of your worst faults.

 

    You do enjoy friendship and camaraderie, but you need

freedom also and do not do well with a possessive, clinging, or

emotionally demanding partner. You are quite generous yourself,

and heartily dislike pettiness in others. Someone who shares

your ideals, your sense of fun, and your zest for life would be

the right companion for you.

 

Sun in 9th house:

 

     World travel, foreign cultures, and studies which expand

your intellectual horizons and broaden your understanding of the

world are very attractive to you.

 

     You have a philosophical turn of mind and are concerned

with seeking answers to the big questions of life or getting the

overview of any situation. Abstract concepts and/or plans for

the future occupy your mind much of the time.

 

Sun Conjunct Neptune:

 

    Sensitive and imaginative, you are attracted to artistic and

creative pursuits and to mysticism. You are impressionable and

receptive, and you often have experiences that are unusual and

unexplainable by the rational mind. You have an abundance of

dreams, visions, and longings, but do not always have the

concentrated will and stamina to make them concrete. Gentle,

idealistic, and peace-loving, you often seek to avoid the hard

realities of life. You have an ethereal quality about you.

 

Sun Sextile Pluto:

 

     You undergo deep, transformative changes in your life with

relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because you

don't avoid the depths, you have access to a lot of personal

power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, you're

apt to have quite a potent effect on the people you come into

contact with, even superficially. Others sense that you're a

force to be reckoned with.

 

Sun Conjunct Venus/Mars

 

    Both sensitive and sensuous, you blend charm and energy. You

have a healthy sexuality and a good balance between activity and

passivity. You may be fond of singing, dancing, music and drama.

Romance comes easily to you, and your romantic relationships are

passionate.

 

Sun Conjunct Neptune/MC

 

    It could be hard for you to face up to your mistakes because

of your insecurity and self-doubt. Your early years may have

been undermined by a poor relationship with one of your parents

who may have been ill, weak or alcoholic.

 

 

 

 

            Chapter 4: Mental Interests and Abilities

 

Mercury in Sagittarius:

 

    You possess vision and foresight, and your mind is often

occupied with big ideas, plans, and goals for the future. You

are interested in what is possible and what is on the horizon,

rather than what has already been done. The study of philosophy,

religion, politics, or education is of interest to you, and you

are more concerned with theories and concepts than with specific

applications. You are not inclined to focus on any one

practical, concrete area; you find it irksome to deal with

details and particulars. You have a gambling instinct and enjoy

speculative enterprises and new ventures. Business, advertising,

and promotion would be good areas for you also.

 

Mercury in 9th house:

 

     You have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and wisdom

and for an ever broadening understanding of life. You are the

perpetual student and will be involved in higher education,

philosophy, or religion. Law, broadcasting, publishing, or the

field of communications are also areas that interest you. World

travel and studying other cultures are also strong urges of

yours.

 

Mercury Conjunct Neptune:

 

    Your mind does not function in a linear, logical manner and

you are often unable to express your thoughts in simple,

everyday language. Symbols, images, art, or music better express

your ideas. Flights of imagination and fantasy carry you into

strange and beautiful worlds, and you could develop the ability

to transcribe some of your perceptions to share with others, for

example, by writing fantasy, fiction, lyrics, or poetry. You are

sensitive to nuances and possess intuitive or psychic gifts, but

you may become confused between imagination and true perception.

You have a strong mystical and idealistic bent, and have

difficulty concentrating your attention on practical or mundane

activities. You are strongly attracted to metaphysical and

spiritual topics.

 

 

 

 

          Chapter 5: Emotions: Moods, Feelings, Romance

 

Moon in Taurus:

 

    Even-tempered and peace-loving, you are not easily ruffled

and are rarely given to emotional displays. You have a calming

effect on more high-strung or volatile people, and an emotional

steadiness that others find soothing. Though gentle and not

easily provoked, you are tremendously stubborn and will resist

any change which requires an emotional adjustment, such as

changes in your home life or marriage.

 

    You seek security and loyalty in love, are extremely devoted

to your loved ones, and provide a warm, nurturing atmosphere for

them. However, you tend to cling and seek to keep others from

changing.

 

    A great deal of physical affection, closeness, and touching

is essential to your well-being, and you have a tendency to

overindulge in sensual comforts and pleasures. At times you

substitute food for emotional comfort and love.

 

Moon in 2nd house:

 

     You are likely to be a great collector of things - a real

pack rat in fact - for your belongings give you a sense of

security and continuity with the past, which is important to

you. Antiques or things with sentimental value from your past

are especially dear to you.

 

     You may also cling rather tightly to both money and

possessions, keeping them "in the family" rather than sharing

freely with those outside of your immediate circle.

 

Moon Trine Mars:

 

    You are assertive and confront difficulties in a direct,

no-nonsense sort of way. You cannot tolerate self-pity or

passivity, and you can be rather brusque with others' emotional

problems. "Stop crying and DO something about it" might be your

motto.

 

Moon Opposition Mercury/Jupiter

 

    You think big and are insatiably curious. You are interested

in many fields, are talkative and a pleasant conversationalist.

Kind, easy-going and optimistic, you have good comprehension and

excellent command of language.

 

Moon Opposition Mercury/Saturn

 

    You are reserved and shy and your thinking is controlled and

somewhat slow. When talking, you sometimes may have the feeling

that the words get stuck in your throat. Because of your

disciplined mind, you are able to concentrate easily.

 

Moon Opposition Jupiter/Neptune

 

    Your sense of reality is a bit weak; you tend to daydream

and lose yourself in your plans. You are likely to be

preoccupied with fantasies or ideas that help you escape the

ordinary. Always looking for ideal contacts, you may be drawn to

philanthropic associations.

 

Moon Opposition Saturn/Neptune

 

    You tend to be a bit pessimistic and are inclined to  feel

emotional depressed a lot. You may feel like withdrawing from

everything, but should try to listen to others' point of view in

order to balance your overly pessimistic views.

 

Venus in Sagittarius:

 

    In love, you seek companionship and friendship with someone

who is fun-loving, playful, and open to adventure and new

experiences. You enjoy traveling together, meeting new people,

making new friends. Honeymooning in a distant place appeals to

you, and you are also attracted to foreigners or someone with a

totally different background than yourself. You support your

partner in taking risks and making positive changes, rather than

preserving the status quo. You also very much want a partner who

will encourage your own aspirations and dreams. It is very

important to you that you have a spiritual or intellectual

rapport with your love partner, perhaps more important than the

emotional/physical relationship. You are not especially

sentimental and your love partner may feel that you are too

casual and not serious or romantic enough.

 

Venus in 8th house:

 

     You crave very intense, deep, emotional relationships, and

would even prefer a stormy, tumultuous relationship to one which

is smooth but lacking vitality and passion. You love

wholeheartedly and expect all-consuming, total devotion and

attention from your partner. Casual, light relationships hold no

appeal for you.

 

Venus Conjunct Uranus:

 

    You are excitable, spontaneous, and easily aroused

emotionally and sexually. You fall in love very quickly and have

little self-restraint or concern for propriety when your

feelings have been stirred. However, it may be difficult for you

to sustain a relationship after the first rush of excitement

wanes, especially if your partner is basically a conservative

person who does not like to change or experiment. Nontraditional

relationships appeal to you, and personal freedom is highly

important to you.

 

Venus Conjunct Mars/Jupiter

 

    You are rich in feelings and have the ability to express

them well. You have a knack for making others feel good and are

likely to enjoy a harmonious sex-life. You also have a strong

need to create and may have a flair for designing fashionable

clothes.

 

Venus Conjunct Mars/Saturn

 

    It may be hard for you to love someone and to express your

love for them. There seems to be a wall built up between you and

others and you seem very cool to them. Your disposition is very

reserved and withdrawn, making it difficult for people to

approach you.

 

 

 

 

    Chapter 6: Drive and Ambition: How You Achieve Your Goals

 

Mars in Capricorn:

 

    You are serious about your ambitions, and disciplined,

dedicated, and tenacious in pursuing your objectives. Your drive

and energy are directed toward practical material accomplishment

and achieving concrete results. You also strive to be in a

position of authority and social influence; you enjoy being the

person who is in command.

 

    You are hard-working and capable of foregoing immediate

comfort in order to achieve your long-range goals. You can

easily become a workaholic and are very responsible and

conscientious about doing a thorough job.

 

    Realistic and pragmatic, you are an excellent strategist.

You attain success by formulating a conservative and workable

plan and following through with it. You are not a gambler when

it comes to attaining your goals; you depend on your own efforts

and perseverance rather than good fortune. You have a natural

shrewdness and instinct for business or organizational

management.

 

Mars in 11th house:

 

     You are a team player and work well in collaboration with

others who share your goals, ideals, and intentions. You can

coordinate group efforts and inspire people to work toward a

shared goal.

 

     Team sports are also a lot of fun for you, and you could be

a leader, coach, or director of any group endeavor.

 

Mars Square Pluto:

 

    You have a powerful will and when you want something, you

pursue it passionately and relentlessly until you achieve it.

You may be so driven by your desire that you lose all

objectivity. You often become compulsive, even obsessed, with

doing or achieving something, no matter what the costs or how

hard you must work for it. Your forcefulness may be veiled or

subtle, for often you do not reveal your real aims and

intentions to others until they cross you. Intense power

struggles and relationships with a strong

dominance/submissiveness theme are likely. You have enormous

energy reserves, and are capable of extraordinary effort and

great achievement if you use your energies for constructive

purposes.

 

MC Conjunct Sun:

 

     Positions of honor, affluence, influence, and stature in

your community can be yours. You feel you have a destiny which

involves leadership or distinguishing yourself in some line of

endeavor. You possess an innate sense of greatness or

importance, and a strong drive to achieve recognition for your

talent. Avoid excessive egotism and arrogant pride, for these

could limit your opportunities.

 

MC Conjunct Neptune:

 

     Your attunement to the intangible or unseen world is very

strong. Thus, your drive and ambitions in life are apt to be

colored by your subtle awareness, your mystical or intuitive

sensitivity. Imagination, "make believe", creative fantasy, and

the ability to visualize may be aspects of your career, also.

You have the ability to "channel" healing or inspirational

messages.

 

MC Opposition Moon/N. Node

 

    You are strongly attached to your home and family, and

harmony in your surroundings is important to you. Having a good

sense of team work, you have a strong desire to feel complete

oneness with people around you.

 

 

 

 

      Chapter 7: Growth and Expansion: Areas That You Enjoy

 

Jupiter in Libra:

 

     Your strengths lie in your ability to cooperate, to be

diplomatic, and to know just what behavior is called for in

whatever social situation you find yourself. You also possess a

strong sense of fairness, the willingness to listen to opposing

viewpoints and opinions, and the ability to be (or at least seem

to be) impartial and moderate, rather than extreme and

one-sided.

 

Jupiter in 7th house:

 

     You are a very sociable person, and you need to reach out

and communicate with many different people. You are interested

in what others can teach you and are drawn to those with more

knowledge or breadth of experience than yourself. You expect a

high level of integrity and sincerity from others and you do not

tolerate pettiness or hypocrisy in your close friends or

marriage partner.

 

     You also need freedom and want a partner who will support

your need to keep learning and growing, who will not limit you

or set too many boundaries. Your marriage is likely to be very

satisfying and rich.

 

Jupiter Conjunct Venus/N. Node

 

    You enjoy being around other people and are always happy to

meet someone. Self-confident and at ease with others, you are a

much sought companion. You have a sense of community and the

ability to capture the spirit of groups or organizations.

 

 

 

 

  Chapter 8: Areas That Challenge You Or Are Difficult For You

 

Saturn in Libra:

 

     You take your personal relationships so seriously that they

may seem more like work, constant effort, and compromise, rather

than a free and enjoyable sharing. You may feel that

relationships in general require more of you than they are

worth, and you enter into any close relationship cautiously and

conscientiously. You also fear entrapment in close

relationships.

 

Saturn in 7th house:

 

     You take your commitments to others very seriously,

especially in close one-to-one relationships. Your strong sense

of responsibility to the other person makes you a trustworthy

and dedicated partner, but you often feel that marriage or any

binding commitment between yourself and another person is too

restrictive and burdensome, and thus seek to avoid it. Close

relationships may be more work than pleasure for you and it may

seem that you are always "working on" your marriage rather than

enjoying it. You will persevere and ultimately grow through the

process, however.

 

Jupiter Conjunct Saturn:

 

     Your aspirations and dreams are always tempered by realism

and practical considerations. You pursue your aims in a

systematic, disciplined, and thorough manner, and you are

willing to take your time, advancing slowly and steadily on your

way to your goal.

 

     Sometimes you underestimate what is possible, and hold

yourself back unnecessarily due to a lack of faith or an overly

cautious attitude.

 

 

 

    Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which you

instinctively and habitually revert to when under stress - a

mostly unconscious process and one which you are apt to overdo

because it is so familiar and thus easy for you. The direction

you need to follow in order to develop balance, greater

awareness, and wholeness is also described.

 

N. Node in Leo:

 

    Your path lies in developing yourself as an individual,

discovering your own strengths and joys, giving expression to

your uniqueness, and letting yourself shine and stand out from

the crowd. This involve becoming a leader, even though your

instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the

"chief". When under stress you are apt to seek safety in

numbers, to go along with the group. Also, you may believe that

striving to do your personal best and to excel is wrong or

selfish, but you should let go of this notion. Finding your own

center and doing what gives you delight and energy is the most

worthwhile contribution you can offer the world at large.

 

N. Node in 5th house:

 

    The arena you are most likely to wrestle with these issues

is in playful self-expression, games or sports, and creativity.

Try to develop any artistic, expressive, creative potentials you

feel you possess, utilizing the qualities described above.

 

N. Node Opposition Sun/Asc.

 

    You have a very obliging manner and are always in search for

new contacts. You are able to identify with people quite easily

and probably will make many friends who can be of help to you.

 

N. Node Opposition Asc./MC

 

    You are very obliging and always look for contacts with

other people. You tend to feel really at home with your family

or in groups or associations that you may join. You have a

strong desire to feel at one with your community.

 

 

 

 

             Chapter 9: Originality and Imagination

  Areas Where You Are Creative, Unique, Unstable, or Compulsive

 

Uranus in 8th house:

 

     Your life is characterized by sudden disruptions and events

which change the direction of your life quite unexpectedly. You

may be impatient and reckless at certain times, impulsively

acting out your urge for new life and change. You are an

emotionally complex person and you are capable of intense,

unexpected outbursts of feelings and desires.

 

     If you share material assets and resources with another

person (as in a marriage or business partnership), your fortunes

are likely to fluctuate wildly or change quickly for better or

worse.

 

Neptune in 9th house:

 

     You love to dream, fantasize, and speculate. You are

willing to entertain the most far fetched ideas and

philosophies, since to you anything is possible.

 

     Anything exotic, alien, or faraway holds a great attraction

for you. You can have very otherworldly beliefs which are quite

impractical and irrelevant to your everyday existence.

 

Pluto in 7th house:

 

     Emotional intensity, compulsive attraction, and a sense of

fate or destiny characterize your one-to-one relationships. It's

as if you simply cannot have light, superficial relationships;

they are inevitably profound, intense experiences which reveal

your depths to you. You may be drawn to powerful, charismatic,

willful people that challenge, thwart, and ultimately evoke your

own power and strengths. Your marriage is likely to be the arena

for your greatest growth.

Neptune Conjunct Sun/Mercury

 

    You tend to see life through rose-colored glasses and have a

vivid imagination. Your inclination to daydream, fantasize and

pretend often could lead you to deceive yourself. A great

visionary, you could be a good writer or actor.

 

 

 

 

       Chapter 10: Generational Influences: Your Age Group

 

    In this chapter we will discuss characteristics and traits

of your generation. Of course, you may not share all of the

characteristics of your generation, but you are greatly affected

by the tone that is set by your generation.

 

    The first topic is "The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of

Your Age Group". In this section we will describe a deeply felt

urge, even compulsion, of your age group. This deeply felt drive

comes to the surface with great force and power, and

consequently leaves in its wake considerable upheaval and

change. The second topic is "The Ideals and Illusions of Your

Age Group", that describes the dreams, fantasies, and spiritual

aspirations of your age group. The third and last topic is "What

is New and Different in Your Age Group", which describes areas

in which your age group tends to be innovative, inventive,

unusual, and also where it may be unstable and unreliable.

 

    The characteristics described below may affect a group of

people for anywhere from a few years to about 30 years. There

are one or more different astrological factors described in each

of the three sections below.

 

     The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group

 

Pluto in Libra:

 

    You are part of a 12 year group of people who are deeply

interested in personal relationships. Your age group has a

deeply-rooted yearning to see people relating and communicating

with each other effectively and harmoniously. There is little

egotism and a willingness to hear the other person's side of the

story and a readiness to compromise and arbitrate different

points of view. In fact, the need for harmonious, peaceful

relationships is so strong that there is a tendency to overlook

real differences and to focus only on the similarities in an

attempt to bring different parties into harmony with each other.

 

    Interest in psychology and sociology is high in your age

group. There is a tremendous heightening of awareness of social

skills. Your age group will experiment with different marriage

styles, family relationships, and even business relationships in

an attempt to bring fair treatment and effective communication

between people. Interest and appreciation for other cultures is

also strong, and your age group will work hard to preserve and

support the cultural heritage of all ethnic groups.

 

    Your strong yearning for equitable and harmonious

relationships is also reflected in major advancements in trade

agreements, arms control, and international cooperation that are

designed and implemented by your generation. These agreements

and policies foster a much safer and more cooperative

environment for all, although there is also a tendency for

greedy individuals to take advantage of the conciliatory

atmosphere and twist situations to their own ends.

 

    In short, you are part of a generation of individuals who

are deeply interested in other people; you are a humanistic and

humanitarian group. You will struggle and experiment with

personal relationships, and forge new models for how people can

relate as friends, family members, and members of nations as

well.

 

           The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group

 

Neptune in Sagittarius:

 

    You are part of a 14 year group of people that are extremely

idealistic and farsighted in their dreams. Your age group is

very liberal and expansive in outlook, and consequently churches

become much more flexible and more eclectic in their approach

during your life time. Religions that do not adapt to the

broad-minded attitude of your age group simply are unable to

attract very much interest and involvement from you.

 

    A great deal of metaphysical musing and speculation is

evident in your age group, and there is a very strong interest

in all manner of psychic phenomena, UFO's, prophecy, etc. This

interest will open many new doors and insights, but will also

often lead to a great deal of fantasizing and speculation that

is taken more seriously than it should be.

 

Neptune Sextile Pluto:

 

     The entire generation to which you belong has tremendous

opportunities for spiritual rebirth and awakening. This will not

be forced upon you or precipitated by unavoidable events, rather

it comes from an inner yearning and a natural propensity to seek

the depths.

 

           What is New and Different in Your Age Group

 

Uranus in Scorpio:

 

    You are part of a 7 year group of people who break up all

manner of taboos regarding death, sex, and any other personal,

private, or difficult topics. Your age group is less modest

about sex than other age groups and promiscuity is not uncommon.

You love emotional intensity, and there are many extremists and

fanatics in your age group.
