Explanation
|
Sun in Taurus, Moon in Aquarius
You were born with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Aquarius. Because of this position of the
Sun, you are equipped for a successful life.
Outwardly you seem unusual, original, and often unorthodox in your life views. Your growth has
been toward a humanitarian concern for the world at large, but your sometimes radical measures
can be offensive to others. You have developed concern for others but your essential nature is
primarily concerned with self.
The sign of Taurus gives vast amount of power, self-determination, self-reliance, and fixity of
purpose. You have channeled these qualities toward universal ends. The fixity of Taurus is
apparent in your stubborn clinging to ideas.
Internally, you are amorous and warm-hearted. But it is very possible that you may be led into
complicated, sometimes unhealthy emotional adventures. Often this tendency can frustrate your
ambitions, because you aspire to a high position in life. Although magnanimous and liberal, you
are not entirely comfortable in your personality role, because your real nature if different.
What others appreciate most in you is your sociability and sympathy.
If you are not at ease in your role and are therefore undergoing a psychological struggle, play
up the Taurean aspects of your character.
Ascendant in Virgo, Mercury in the Ninth House
At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Virgo was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler
Mercury is located in the ninth house.
This indicates that throughout your life you will assume a reserved, quiet, analytical, critical,
and receptive attitude.
Although you are not an individual with a very strong ambition, you possess the ability to
persevere and exert ingenuity.
Some selfishness is noted. However, if you are able to counteract this trait with your natural
helpful and sympathetic attitude and address your positive qualities to resolve the problems of
others then you will accomplish your highest spiritual duties and your degree of consciousness
and perception will be expanded.
You are not afraid to work but you like to do things where you can use intellectual resources
rather than mechanical ones. There is some independence here but don't try to be forceful about
it because Virgo's natural habitat is one in which the person is led by some powerful authority
and where the important decisions are best made by others.
You are very attentive to detail and this makes you a good worker, especially so in those jobs
that require a great deal of precision and observation. You have a desire for purity and though
you don't mind relating to others there is something that you do dislike: continuous intrusion of
your privacy. Business and practicality should be very important in your life. Although we are
not advising you to turn against your natural traits, which make you slightly reserved, we would
suggest that when in love you let yourself relax and respond so as to be able to return some of
the affection you are receiving.
Life will find you in many situations in which you will function as advisor and counsellor; make
use of these opportunities to project the power of your creativeness.
Mercury, in this house indicates a devotion to knowledge and a mind which is analytical and
inquiring. The position, however, is not unconditionally favorable as it tends to give you a
dislike for the more material aspects of life and perhaps puts too much emphasis on the abstract
modes of thought. You should try to develop more of the practical side of Virgo and adapt your
higher thoughts to practical realizations.
Moon in the Fifth House
The Moon was found in the fifth house at the time of your birth. This indicates that you will
participate actively in business speculations with many changes occurring in this respect. You
were born with a knack for dealing with people and with the ability to communicate with them,
particularly in connection with business enterprises.
Your emotional nature is very much geared to your love of pleasure, and you possess a very
curious aptitude which may bring you financial gains as well as pleasures in business.
In spite of the positive qualities you have, the fact of the matter is that in love you are very
changeable, unstable, or too preoccupied with trivialities.
Your love feelings are very well developed and lead to strong drives for sensations and
passionate tendencies which unfortunately are not directed to one object alone.
It is possible that throughout life you may be connected with small and numerous business
investments with a fairly good return.
Neptune Opposition Ascendant
Neptune opposition the Ascendant shows that you are greatly influenced by the people with whom
you associate.
Your opinions of the people you deal with are too idealistic, and you are hurt when they
disappoint you.
When you volunteer to help people, you must protect yourself. Offer to help only when you know
positively that someone needs your assistance. Being alone makes you feel helpless, so you seek
out obligations to others.
Since you are imaginative and creatively inspired in expressing yourself, you should direct your
talents to writing, music, or the arts.
You depend on others to provide the opportunities you need to earn a living. Because you feel
that you do not deserve to be happy and contented, you overemphasize your negative qualities. But
you are more loved than you realize, and your friends are deeply concerned for your welfare. Seek
their advice before making a commitment so you will not regret it later.
Venus in the Eighth House
Venus was found in your eighth house at the time of birth. This is a favorable position
regarding the possibilities of financial gain through businesses owned by your partner or by
associates.
Psychologically, you are going to find many harmonious conditions in your sexual relationships.
If your inner growth is such that your vital energies are oriented toward spiritual rather than
material pleasures, then you will arrive at gratification and happiness through inquiry into the
mysteries of life and death.
You should have some excellent opportunities for progress in your financial and social condition
during your middle age or when you finally stabilize your life through marriage or any other type
of close relationship.
Sun in the Ninth House
The Sun was found in the ninth house at the time of birth. This is an indication that your real
self possesses an attraction to higher levels of thought. Additionally, this indicates that the
most important realizations may come through the process of pure reasoning.
You will tend to grow through the workings of your higher mind where you may find, after much
striving, the creative principle and the power of self-expression.
You possess a rather austere mind which is fearless, self-confident and keenly analytical.
Regarding life events, you will be inclined to obtain success in subjects connected with law,
religion, and possibly foreign lands.
Saturn in the Ninth House
Saturn was found in the ninth house at the time of birth. This indicates that your concern over
the impermanence of all things will urge you to restrict your personality traits and assume a
position of caution and planning before pursuing any important matter.
In a practical sense, your attitude to all higher intellectual functions is that of a studious,
serious, and meditative person. You must, however, be attentive to the possible presence of
several challenging elements in your intellectual make-up such as depression, fear, and severity.
