Explanation
|
Sun in Libra, Moon in Sagittarius
An intellectual, you are usually preoccupied with ideas. However, you rarely seek knowledge for
its own sake. You tend to be didactic and try to convert others to your ideas.
In defending your ideas you display all the strength of a zealot. Fortunately, your well-
developed judgment tells you exactly where your opinions are not welcome. You are by nature
straightforward and don't profess to be more than you are. Your genuine concern for people
inclines you toward social work. It is difficult for you to restrain yourself, and your better
judgment is often hidden beneath the flash of some new and not-too-wise inspiration. But you are
a harmonious individual - that is, no serious conflict exists between idea and action, between
what you appear to be and what you are.
Ascendant in Libra, Venus in the Second House
At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Libra was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler
Venus is located in the second house.
This denotes a life in which the native adopts an attitude which is courteous, kind, and
affectionate.
People with Libra Ascendant are basically motivated by feeling and emotion rather than
intellectuality. Your life will demonstrate your keenness of observation, and a tendency to
effect comparisons largely of an aesthetic nature. You will not display too much energy in your
actions and, therefore, there is a tendency toward following routine and the lines of the least
resistance. You are a sympathetic person who seeks the approval of others and is also very
adaptable. Your intuition is remarkable and you derive sensual gratification from engaging in
social intercourse, by loving all social aspects of life.
If you do not control this tendency to be so involved in human relationships, you may become too
attached and over dependent.
Some restlessness, changeability and lack of persistence is noted in your life. Your main feature
is that of constantly favoring the fusing of two things or people together.
Unfortunately, this involvement with harmonizing and adjusting people to one another, tends to
make the native a little unrealistic and lacking in action. You will be, however, easy going and
congenial, socially oriented and preoccupied with adornments, clothing, social conventions,
standards, and aesthetics. In love, if you cause the relationship to be a serious one, you will
find that the affair is the consequence of your own interest in flattering yourself rather than
to satisfy any profound emotion.
Professionally, you will be inclined to activities which require a high degree of culture and
even artistic knowledge.
The fact that your ruler is positioned in this house is an indication of how important earning a
living will be in your life. Because the ruler is Venus, we do not anticipate too much hard work
but rather an easy going life where, though you will be responsible for earning your own money,
it nevertheless will be gained with ease.
You have a marked tendency to deal with things that are either gratifying from a hedonistic view
or pleasing to the senses. Much gain will be forthcoming through social communication and the
general public, and some profitable dealings from friends and influential persons.
Sun in the First House
The Sun is in the first house. You are by nature energetic, proud and self-assertive. You
project yourself enthusiastically and energetically into all situations. Your naturally outgoing
disposition and personable manner usually make a good impression on people.
Your heightened self-perception puts you in touch with a strong sense of will, and you can
manipulate your will to suit your aims and desires in life. This position of the Sun gives the
capacity for leadership, for you tend to attract people and to have a strong influence on them
when they are with you.
You do not like to depend on others, but you hold on to your friends, for they are usually
pleased to help you when you need it. You are willing to help close friends who are deserving,
but only if you know that your efforts will be appreciated.
You often prefer to work alone. However, this is not your only choice, for you adapt well to
working with people as long as you are free to express yourself. With a first-house Sun, there is
a tendency to overestimate your own worth, but through repeated contacts with others you will
inevitably come to a more realistic appraisal of your abilities and potential.
Note: The Sun is technically near the end of house 12 and is therefore interpreted in house 1.
Sun Conjunct Ascendant
The Sun conjunct the Ascendant shows that you have a great desire for recognition and are
creative in finding ways to gain attention. In general you are uncompromising. You have great
faith in your ability to rise above any of life's negative circumstances. You know how to use
your vast creative resources in a direct assault against any adversary, and you believe that
eventually you will succeed. Most often you do, but when challenged by stiff competition you will
resort to brute force to demonstrate that you do not give in without a fight. You know how to
win friends and influence people, and you use this talent effectively.
To be truly comfortable in your profession, you need to have a position of some authority over
others.
Venus in the Second House
Venus is found in the second house at the time of your birth. Intrinsically, this is an ideal
astrological position as it promises easy means of livelihood. Money will stream in regularly
and readily without excessive effort or preoccupation.
Saturn in the Second House
Saturn is found in the second house at the time of your birth. This is not a very favorable
astrological circumstance for the general course of financial matters in your life.
It might be difficult to maintain a relatively fair position because of financial losses. You
might also take financial matters too serious, and burden yourself with worries about them.
Your arduous and dedicated work might produce little for you financially, but it does help to
strengthen your self-worth and your appreciation of other values. Therefore, do not be
discouraged. Saturn often grants a fairly normal financial status at an older age if one exerts
oneself in this direction.
If you make an effort to acquire greater enthusiasm in business, coupled with more liberality,
life will change by the same degree.
Moon in the Third House
The Moon appears in the third house at the time of your birth. Your intellect is very sensitive
to external events always changing and adjusting to the situation.
Memory is strong and of a pictorial nature. The mind, however, is liable to become too subjective
and shallow with an overemphasis on superficial learning and with little practical use or lacking
in intellectual sensibility. On the favorable side, there exists a vast reservoir of creativity
which could be successfully applied to such pursuits as writing and poetry. Physically, the Moon
will give you an intensely active life full of changes, mobility and fluctuations.
The demands of this position are simple: exert yourself in acquiring better control of your
unstable and persistent imagination, increasing, thereby, powers of concentration and you will
find delightful improvements not only at a mental level, but also in the ability to communicate
with others more realistically.
