Hallo,
gerade habe ich in meinem Astroprogramm die Daten für den 31.05.79 um 2:31
eingegeben. Ganz eindeutig ist diese Person eine Sonne in Stier mit Widder AC
und Mond in Fische in 12. Ihre Website arbeitet mit anderen Ephemeriden? Ihre
Angabe lautet, dass diese Person mit oben genannten Daten eine Zwillinge
Sonne mit Stier AC und Mond in Löwe wäre... Ich bitte um ein Feedback ihrer
Genauigkeit.
Herzlich,

If you would so state your birthday, time and place, I would be curious
myself to see your chart. Other triple Geminis include Steffi Graf, Queen
Victoria, and Omar Khayyam although he was born 1000 years ago and birth data
that old may be questionable. (data given by Swami Govinda Thirtha). Also
someone named John Budge. My computer database has 2097 charts but only
these 4 are triple Gemini.

Michael Hall -
Detailed questions about your chart are not usually answered here, but there
are many horoscopes you can purchase for modest amounts. I’m not sure what
you mean by a pure type. If your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant are in fact in
Gemini (i.e., no mistake in your calculations) then you are certainly strong
in Gemini. This can be a two-edged sword. You can be so strong in one thing
you get sort of overwhelmed by those traits and there is less room for their
balancing traits. With that much Gemini I would look for stability from
Saturn because Gemini tends to flit around. Hermes is youthful, agile,
clever, sometimes naughty, somewhat amoral which are his strengths but also
his weakness. The first thing he does after birth is steal Apollo’s (his
brother) cattle. Then he disguises his tracks by walking backwards so his
footsteps appear to come from the wrong direction. When asked about it he
lies. There is probably no better friend to Hermes than the old man or
senex, Saturn to balance him with maturity and wisdom. Without Saturn to
help him it may be difficult for you to finish things. At the same time your
mind is probably very agile. Hermes is certainly a god that you resonate
with. You might want to read about him in the myths.
The condition of Mercury, ruler of Gemini provides further description of
you. As a triple Gemini, Mercury in Taurus would be very different than
Mercury in Cancer. So where is Mercury? He may actually be in Gemini and
Mercury would then be Sole Dispositor in your chart. Does Mercury rise
immediately before the Sun? If not which planet does? Is he retrograde?
Direct? Other considerations are the houses occupied by Sun and Moon and
Mercury. Are Sun and Moon in 1st, 12th, split between 1st and 12th and if
split, how ? Is there actually a conjunction between Sun and Moon and how
close is it to exact. Are either or both or neither luminary conjunct the
Ascendant? Is the Moon in the last few degrees of the preceding cycle which
some authors describe as kind of a 12th house-like, mystical position. Or in
the first few degrees of the new cycle? What are the other aspects to the
Sun and Moon and what are the aspects to Mercury? What is the balance of
quadratures and elements in your chart beyond your obvious strength in
mutable air.
Consider spending the 50 dollars and getting Liz Greene’s Psychological
Horoscope from this site. She will give you the result of many of these
considerations without calling out the planetary positions. That horoscope
(all of hers actually) is assembled using an Expert System which is a 5th
generation computer system using artificial intelligence. It is probably the
most advanced computer chart you can get anywhere. An expert system
approaches a problem the way a human brain does. So the rules followed in
the analysis and synthesis are the same rules Liz would use in a live
reading. It is much more than a simple itemization of your various
planetary positions which is all other computer programs can give you. An
expert system synthesizes the results into a kind of story or picture. I am
not connected with this site in any way but I have gotten several of Liz’
horoscopes and I cannot recommend them enough. It is well worth you
investment in self-knowledge.

Hello, many, many years ago, before the time of the internet, my sister order
as a present for me a psychological horoscope analysis from you. It came in
the form of a book, with 6 parts and about 22 pages. When reading the
personalized horosccope, I was amazed. I couldn't believe it, it was like
looking into a mirror. A lot of what I was reading indeed related to me.
Therefore, when I was reading stuff that I never realized about myself and
that wasn't so good, I wanted to look away. To this day, once in a while, I
pull it out and read parts of it again. It is still amazing to me.
Now, I am thinking to get such a horoscope for my son's 30th birthday which
is still a couple of years away. I saw the Personal Horoscope by Liz Greene,
18-25 Pages A4 US 46.95. It sounds like this comes the closest to what I
received from my sister. Am I right? What info in regard to my son do I need
to provide?
Later she ordered another one for me which in German is called Jahresthemen.
Do you still have this kind as well?
By the way, I would want to receive the horoscope for my son in English.
I look forward to hearing from you,

I found the relationship horoscopes to be very insightful. I actually
purchased two, with different potential partners, and some of the info was
the same in both--probably because I was the common denominator and both
potential partners are the same Sun sign and close in age. I would have
appreciated more information on exactly what aspects of the composite and
individual charts related to the different parts of the analysis, however, so
that I could determine whether certain conditions will be present in my
relationships regardless of partner. But I am happy to have purchased them.

To LB of London: I'm not using that date and time to make the chart work -
astrology certainly shouldn't work that way, though a lot of people do it.
It's just that I was never aware that the British Mandate expired at midnight
on May 15, and that the Israeli proclamation of independence acknowledged
that, as of midnight on that date, the state of Israel would come into
official existence. So it seemed logical to try a chart set for that time,
rather than for the time of Ben Gurion's speech. I was just amazed by how it
came out. It seems very apt.

I only have the date and place of birth for someone, not the time. Is there
any way of getting a horoscope without the actual houses, ascendent etc for
that date at that place to give some indication of the planet placement in

You will be able to call up most types of chart drawings, but no
interpretations, because most of our interpretations include information
on the Ascendant and the houses.
Why would you use midnight of May 15 for Israel? to make the 'chart' work -
surely astrology does not work like that?

Okay, Alois. Nice metaphor, comparing the birth chart to inherited genetic
traits I take your point.
By the way, I see that Israel is not listed amongst your country charts,
perhaps because there has been confusion about the exact time of the founding
of the state. I just recently learned that actually, there has never been
any need for confusion about it, because the British Mandate of Palestine
expired at midnight on May 15, 1948. Ben Gurion acknowledged this fact in
his proclamation of independence, begun at 4:00 p.m. on May 14, 1948, which
is usually taken as the birth time of Israel. But if you take midnight of
May 15 as the birth time, this gives Israel an Ascendant of 14 ' Aquarius and
an MC of 29' Scorpio the Descendant is flanked by Moon and Pluto in Leo in
the sixth house, and Saturn and Mars in Leo in the seventh. In fact, the
Descendant itself is the midpoint of Saturn-Pluto. Chiron and the South Node
are in the ninth house, while the North Node and the Sun are in the third
(the Sun is six degrees away from the IC). Look at the current transits to
this chart!

Guelph, ON, Canada --- Sunday, July 23, 2006 at 19:12 Universal Time
Hi Alois - Thanks for your reply to my question about changing the location
from the birthplace for a yearly horoscope report. I just thought, with
astrolocality in mind, that perhaps the descriptions of the transits and
progressions to the relocated Ascendant and MC might be more accurate than
for the birthplace.
Did I imagine it, or did you say some time back that you were going to come
out with an Astrolocality report?
Pamela Y o u n g
Guelph, ON, Canada --- Sunday, July 23, 2006 at 16:26 Universal Time
Alois adds: You cannot introduce astrolocality by faking the birth place.
I see the natal chart rather like inherited genetic traits. If you are born
as an English person, you do not become a Chinese by moving to Shanghai.
Rather, such a move may even bring out your englishness more pronounced.
Please, never fake a birth place.

Edna B r i s s o n
Canada --- Sunday, July 23, 2006 at 05:16 Universal Time
Dear Edna -
From the data you gave I was unable to erect your uncle’s chart with any
precision or certainty. With15 Virgo rising, Mars (currently at 29 Leo and
moves into Virgo today) will not conjunct his Ascendant until Aug 15th
although the effect of that conjunction will begin to be felt before the
aspect reaches exactness.
A different way to think of this than “which planet will win out” would be
that all the indications must be taken into consideration simultaneously.
The gods did not cancel out the effect of other gods in the myths. Each
continued to have its say. So when Tireseus supports Zeus position in a
wager with his wife, Hera, and validates that women receive more pleasure
than men during the sexual act, Hera, in anger, blinds him. Zeus is not able
to overturn her action even though he is the King but he gives Tireseus the
gift of prophecy (second sight).
I would never presume to predict the future. So many variables are at work.
In math you are required to have as many equations as variables in order to
solve for the unknown. Two variables require two equations 10 variables
require 10 equations. It gets complicated quickly. Currently in medicine we
are not even aware of all the variables let alone understand the equations of
how they inter-relate. Medicine is more an art than a science.
More scientific types think prayer merely comforts us because of our own
beliefs. Other doctors allow that prayer may actually be a factor, even
though not measurable in the lab. It is a mystery. What else can you do at
this time except to be at his side and comfort your friend. If you are so
inclined please pray.
In the name of God,
who is within me,
I accept His power with gratitude.
I open my heart and my hands to receive it.
Beloved brother and friend,
may this power reach you.
May you be healed.
May every cell in my being,
every thought in my mind
be radiant with grace.
Through my hands,
may there flow to you
His power and His love.
You are forgiven,
for you were not condemned.
You are healed, for you shall
now know your innocence.
You are whole.
You are healed.
God sees you this way.
As I accept Him more deeply into my heart,
I accept for myself His vision of you.
I see only your perfection.
I see only your love.
I see not your past.
I see not your mistakes.
I see not your disease.
I see not your pain.
For they have been cast out
through the grace of God.
Through the mercy of the Lord,
through the wonder of the universe,
which loves us all
and gives new life,
may you be blessed and be made new.
You are healed,
You are whole,
And so it is.
Amen.

I looked on this site to Clare Martin for a definition of Jung's
individuation as ‘deliberately working against the natural order of things’
- see -
http://www.astro.com/mtp/mtp0_e.htm
This reminded me of the moon phases as indicators of personal development.
-see-
http://www.yeatsvision.com/
The moon phases are very complex, but do contain the themes of individuation.
I now prefer the term identity for the planets up to and including Saturn.
We are in touch with these planets when intimate with them. The psychological
process of the moon can help one cope, but the expression of, for example,
Venus, varies from music to art to love making, yet is identifiable as an
intimate sense of self actualization. The outer planets are collective and are not
self referent.
Identity as I use it comes from Erikson.

Alois adds: You are right, and we fixed it.
Bill:
Unsure of how to interpret your email addy I am replying here, with Alois'
permission.
For me Carl Jung and those who interpret him, especially Joseph Campbell and
James Hillman shine a light into the regions of the collective unconscious to
which we each remain connected. The stories that live in that storehouse and
which we all access in our dreams inform us about our universe, our humanness
and our ancient inheritance.
To me those myths underlie and explain the astrological placements as well as
the psychological principles that drive us. The New Testament, to me, is
Western civilization’s primary collectively agreed upon myth of our current
age. And the Church has gone to great extent to banish all the other stories
as heresy. But there is so much more down there in our collective memory
than the story of Jesus. Giants, witches, wounded Kings, enchanting maidens,
warriors, knights on quest, elves, magicians, and mythical animals still live
in the collective unconscious and our imaginations. Persephone and Hades
still play out their drama. Just ask anyone with Venus in aspect to Pluto.
The myths are eternal because they still make true statements about our human
condition. Hermes remains eternally young and clever and will guide you
through the underworld of the unconscious with his language and
understanding. Venus continues to be beautiful and vain and falls in love.
Eros flies away from Psyche and Apollo makes his music as does his offspring:
Orpheus.
For me the New Testament and its stories of apocalypse are not to be taken
literally anymore than Perseus, Medusa, the Cracken and Andromeda. To
interpret the New Testament literally is, as Campbell says, to try to eat the
menu instead of the meal to which it refers. It is to mistake the metaphor
for it’s reference.

Kent:
You're right. I include my e mail so we can discuss it futher. Hand's
article on this site, Post Modern Astrology, does not mention Jung when he
mentions self actualization, consciounsness, and so on. Yet Jung could have
a synthetic, healing role in the post modern / tradition debate.
Something else interesting...
Sokals dated his Transgressing the Boundaries: Towards a Transformative
Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity Nov 28 1994, time of a Jup/Mer/Plu
conjunction in Scorpio. This is a good example of individation meeting with
the collective, because it made a collective impact of importance. The
parody if nothing else will make post modernists work harder at ethics and
truth, and hopefully do the same for post modern astrologers. Hand deplores :
the inarticulate nature of much modern 20th century astrological language.
This must change! he says.

I dont know if the world will be destroyed mid millenium or not. I'm
reminded of a man I listened to on Hawaii cable TV. He said that the
Buddhist and Christian churches were not going out to visit and help the
homeless Hawaiians, now forced to live on the beach, under duress and with
little help. No food, comfort. This was, the churches say, because the
world is going to end. So why not just wait patiently? All this man was
saying is that the church people could go see for themselves, visit, bring
some food. We can be blinded to ourselves by the powerful collective Neptune,
Pluto, Uranus. Apocalyptic visions and so on. In us are sensual Venus and
clever Mercury, etc. And hopefully benevolent Jupiter for the sake of the

Cameron Garth Miller -
The late Joseph Campbell who taught comparative religion and studied the
gods and their stories as well as studying Jungian psychology (he edited
“The Portable Jung”, Penguin Books) used to warn against confusing the
metaphor with it’s reference. He likens mistaking a metaphor for its
reference to eating a menu instead of the meal.
The gods are not necessarily physical beings but rather metaphors for ancient
and archetypal human tendencies, hungers, drives, and needs. Early peoples
may have thought of them as literal realities but in modern times we
understand them in a more psychological way. The fact that they are not
literal realities does not diminish their relevance or their influence in our
lives.
From Joseph Campbell in a conversation with Bill Moyers:
“Heaven and hell are within us, and all the gods are within us. This is
the great realization of the Upanishads of India in the ninth century B.C.
All the gods, all the heavens, all the worlds, are within us. They are
magnified dreams, and dreams are manifestations in image form of the energies
of the body in conflict with each other. That is what myth is. Myth is a
manifestation in symbolic images, in metaphorical images, of the energies of
the organs of the body in conflict with each other.”
From Carl Jung:
“The gods have become diseases Zeus no longer rules Olympus but rather the
solar plexus, and produces curious specimens for the doctor’s consulting
room, or disorders the brains of politicians and journalists who unwittingly
let loose psychic epidemics on the world.
Jung taught us that the gods didn’t die, they became psychological complexes,
neuroses.

although it has always seemed proven , I have often wondered if the phenomena
i am feeling isnt just an ancient form of psychology or an amazing language
trick . Although I have probably sent myself mad observing the ups and downs
of the transit energy and experimenting with the signifigance of the signs ,
what I have observed is this . We are just vehicles for DNA,s ultimate
journey and colonisation of deep space . We are in the age of Pices . The
last age . This earth should be destroyed by 2500 AD if not earlier . The
Horoscope is the DNA of personality . Our personalities create destiny aswell
as conflict . The Gods ( there are many of them and they are as emotional as
us ) are in conflict . This is some type of super arcade game and what we
think of as physical matter is really like the pixels of a 3D Graphics
program . We are Toys and some of us are special . Some of us are tortured .
Some of us are insignificant . Its important to understand your personal
destiny and to accept it and be motivated by it . The Squares and oppositions
in your chart will point you in the correct direction . Breeding is important
also . They need very brainy, creative , imaginative and capable stock ,
intergalactic travel requires this , so after the flu in a few years , when
the gene pool has been re-ordered ( much like what 2 world wars did last
century ) we can once again take giant leaps in faith and technology without
being dragged down by the confused and un-educatable mass who insist on
wasting our human talents on war making and banal entertainments. I urge all
of you to think of these things . On a silly note I have found that you can
do really weird stuff like gamble on horses and dogs using the moon transits
against uranus and venus by simply asking a cancerian for a number between 1
and 6 in the betting shop but I should warn you that they ( the gods) play
with you , so if you get greedy or your destiny is simply to be poor and hard
working( you must understand that hardship creates opportunities and
ultimatley results) then they tend to stop you in your tracks . If your a
parent I would also really encourage your children to be creative ( think of
things) and to also apply themselves to understanding Space , Physics and
engineering . This DNA you have bred will really matter to them ( the gods)
. Good luck . I hope this has been useful and please also remain aware of
Karmic Law (saturn) and the peaceful beauty of Jesus and his unconditional
love (jupiter) . butterfly the astrologer .

Gussie: Sorry to hear about your family. I did a quick search, and
Alzheimers was mentioned in the feedback. It was a poem, appropriately.
Liz Greene somewhere wrote about Hera and the powers she gave Zeus, but she
kept the mystery of death and the wind. Some things just are mysteries.
Meantimes have you looked at their charts as personality portraits, or in
relationship to each other and to you? Things like that can be interesting.
I think you can always discover something new about relationships, even with
those who have passed.

About Zidanes, etc. I think the salient feature of the notorious moment was
that it was done out of sight of the referees, so he thought... He had sized
them up and thought he could get away with it. This maybe was so, if it was
a replay that brought it to the attention of the referees. The moon (public)
out of personal aspect in Capricorn, Zidanes was unaware of being watched by
a larger body. The camera caught him by accident.
Pluto is impersonal and collective. To say Zidanes was compelled by Pluto to
his self destruction is like trying to fit a novel into a newspaper. The
discussion about compulsions is surely more Saturnine.

My partner and I use Michelson's Koch book of tables for calculating house
cusps. In the calculations for the charts that we've done on this website
(using the Koch option) we found that the ascendant/other cusps are different
than what appear in Michelson's tables of houses. Can you explain? It appears
that intercepted signs may not occur using your Koch data base. Is this the

Alois adds: Of course we cannot know what you did. The only thing we can be
sure of is that you made errors, as your result is wrong.
I've been observing Astrology for the past 25 years and I am in no sense of
the word an expert. However I do see the validity over and over again. I
see Astrology as Observational Science, even though many would disagree with
me. So many great discoveries start from observation. Without a doubt I
feel someday Science will catch up to Astrology. Maybe when we can identify
and understand the energies of planetary influences. Maybe it will be
quantum physics or string theory or something else yet unknown. I just know
it’s scientific and will eventually be within our realm of understanding .
Considering what we have accomplished so far in Astrology it really is very
amazing when you take into account that it is subject to one’s own bias’s and
filters.
Alois, you stated Maximizing sales is not a major goal of our operation.
which I understand. At the same time I am hoping that one of your major
goals is to further promote the acceptance and understanding of Astrology.
I think most here would agree that if this site did not survive it would be a
great loss. The amount of collective insight and wisdom provided by your
staff of astrologers can only be summed up in one word, Priceless!
A couple years ago I came up with an idea that I feel would tremendously
increase public awareness and acceptance of Astrology. I haven’t found any
that I feel are competent or capable enough to accomplish it, except for
Astrodienst. I don’t want to divulge this publicly for obvious reasons, so
I am asking if you would give me a private email address that I could then
submit my ideas too. I understand Astrodienst has it’s own agenda but I
also hope you are open to ideas. No matter what happens I would like to
thank Astrodienst for your contribution thus far. Keep up the good work.

Tenho uma dúvida constante: nasci em horário de verão, então dependendo do
sistema q elabora o meu mapa, Urano se afasta do ascendente a ponto de não
estar na cúspide, enquanto Júpiter se aproxima do MC e faz conjunçao. As

confused.
Andrew H e e r m a n s
NYC, USA --- Friday, July 14, 2006 at 18:07 Universal Time
Alois adds: There exists no such thing as 'tropical time'.
There is a tropical zodiac, and a sidereal zodiac, and you find more
information about that in the section 'Understanding Astrology' Precession and
Zodiac
The term 'sidereal time' exists and has nothing to do with the 'sidereal zodiac'. It is a synonym for 'rectascensio coeli', the longitude coordinate of the
equatorial coordinate system, measured from the tropical vernal equinox as all
sensible astronomical coordinate systems.
Hediger on Zidanes (translated by worldlingo.com) is very interesting: social
/ symbolic, personal / world stage, child / mother, self / society. Great
proof that we are free to use astrology to interpret events in depth.
How do you translate Plutonische Selbstzerstörungsgelüste?
What time did the incident occur? Where was the moon, in particular? Thanks

The incident occurred in the 110th minute of the game, which will make

Looking at my daily horoscope today, I see what looks to me like an
illustration of a drowning rat, plus a title which doesn't exist in Robert
Hand's excellent book on transits, and which doesn't seem to me to represent
well the actual text of the transit, which is incomplete. On occasion, I've
found that the most critical parts of Mr. Hand's texts have been edited

Dear Astrodienst:
First, thank you for such a wonderful site. It's the best site for birth
charts I have found on the internet.
I've been working on charts for hurricanes lately. Florida's Hurricane
Charlie in 2004 made its first landfall in Dry Tortugas, Florida (24.2 N /
82.9 W) or (24 deg 24' N / 82 deg 54' W).
I didn't find this location in your database. This was a bit of a
surprise since I've done about 300 charts so far and I hadn't come up empty.
:)
Could you please add Dry Tortugas, FL to your database?
(And, of course, everyone reading this is invited to reflect on Uranus'
and/or Pluto's droll humor in chosing a dry location for a hurricane to
visit).
Sincerely,
Born to Roar

Look for Pluto opposition to your friends Venus next Sunday, July 16th. The
orb for Pluto transits used by this site apparently is 51 seconds from a
little experiment I just did. Pluto will move retrograde to 24Sag41 on
Sunday and you should then see the transit in your friends Personal Daily
Horoscope. And you should see this transit continuously in the daily scope
until about Oct 22nd when Pluto will be direct at 24Sag41 and moving away
from exact opposition. On Oct 23rd it will not be listed again. If you
allow wider orbs of course you could consider it opposition now and beyond
Oct 23rd. This is the last opposition of Pluto to your friends Venus as
Pluto will not come within a degree of the opposition again and it will
advance into Capricorn on Jan 25, 2008.

Gedanken zu Zinedines Zidanes Verhalten am Fussball-WM-Finalspiel vom 9. Juli
2006.
Was geschah: Der in einenm ärmlichen Vorort von Marseille aufgewachsene
Starfussballer Zinedine Zidane wird nach einer Kurzschlusshandlung (zu Recht)
vom Platz verwiesen, weil er einem gegenerischen Spieler, welcher ihn vorher
offenbar verbal (tief) verletzt hatte, mit dem Kopf in die Brust stiess.
Zuvor hatte er sich diesem Gegner, für mich beinahe symbolisch anmutend,
gegenüber, also (auch symbolisch) in Opposition gestellt. Als sensibler
Widder mit Krebs-Aszendent realisire ich Augenblicklich: Diese Handlung ist
von einer ungeheuren Symbolträchtigkeit. Keine Dummheit, aber ein Drama! Aber
Zidane wirkte auf mich nicht so, als ob dies einfach eine gewöhnliche
Entgleisung war. Dazu wirkte er zu abgeklärt und gefasst. Als ihm der
Schiedsricher die rote Karte zeigt, schien er ihm zuzustimmen und wie zu
sagen Du hast völlig recht, Du musst mich des Platzes verweisen. Aber Du
weisst nicht, was genau in mir vorgeht. Für eine Minute insgesamt war
Zinedine in seiner Kindheit und reagierte so, wie er es damals getan hatte:
Der verletzenden Person Einhalt zu gebieten. Auf die Art und Weise der
Strassenjungs von Marseille.
Irgendwie hatte ich schon immer die Idee, Zidane
habe gewisse Skoprpion-Qualitäten an sich. Nachgeschaut hatte ich nie.
(Gestern Abend noch, während des Spiels, dachte ich an Mars im Skorpion).
Heute, Montag, 10.7.06 will ich es wissen: Wie können die Tageszeitungen nur
so oberflächlich sein: unrühmlicher Abgang und dergleichen. Da steckt doch
mehr dahinter. Da ist doch ein direkter Bezug zu seiner, vermutlich eher
schweren, Jugend aus (traurigen?) Verhältnissen! Also, ich sehe nach:
Grundhoroskop (23.6.72, Marseille): Sonne Krebs, Mond Skorpion, Mars Krebs,
Sonne und Merkur in Quadrat zu Pluto, Pluto-Quadrat Jupiter um nur so die mir
zu diesem Falle relevanten Aspekte zu nennen. Und dann das Tageshoroskop von
gestern, 9.7.06: Sonne Quadrat zu Chiron = unwillkürliches, verletzende
Auseinandersetzungen . Zudem(schwach):Mond in Quadrat zu Uranus:
Überstürztes, rebellisches Verhalten! Mir ist somit alles klar. Faszinierend
und traurig finde ich jedoch den Bezug zu seiner Kindheit. Kam in dem Moment
nicht einfach so vieles aus dem Unbewussten hoch? Für mich war dies kein
unrühmlicher Abschied. Es war die vielelicht unbewusste Inszenierung eines
ureigenen Problemes Zidanes auf der Weltbühne. Hatte er nicht schon als KInd
tausendmal die rote Karte erhalten? Vielleicht kurz vor einem vermeintlichen
Erfolg? Bestand da unbewusster Wiederholungszwang? Oder einfach Skorpionische
bzw. Plutonische Selbstzerstörungsgelüste?
Ich wünsche mir: Hoffentlich wird
bekannt, was genau Zidane so verletzt hat und hoffentlich wird dies in Bezug
zu seiner Kindheit öffentlich diskutiert. Es tangierte meiner Meinung nach
die brisanten Themen rund um die Franz. Banlieus und die Situation, in der
die Menschen dortt Leben. Zudem die psych. Auswirkungen eines solchen
Umfeldes (Abgrenzung, Benachteiligung, verbale Verletzungen..etc.) P.S. Der
Schreiber hat Pluto in Jungfrau in Haus 3...Danke für die Aufmerksamkeit.

abgelesen zu haben. Ihrer Meinung nach handelte es sich um eine grobe Beleidigung
von Zidanes Mutter, auf französisch.
Thank you all, you've answered my question. Jupiter is in wide aspect at 112
degrees. :) Thanks for helping me get to the bottom of this.

Final thought for Tia:
To construct a simple sentence regarding Mars conjunct Jupiter: You are being
encouraged to assert yourself. Where and how and to what extent may be shown
by the house, sign, element and aspects to this conjunction.
Kent T o l l e y
Long Beach, CA, USA --- Sunday, July 9, 2006 at 19:31 Universal Time
Feedback for Tia (2 entries below):
My 2 cents on your question: it’s a judgement call. Different astrologers
use different orbs. Mars may be in aspect to your Sun using orbs of Marc
Edmund Jones but out of orb using orbs of Liz Greene. The major aspect orbs
used on this site, I believe, are 10 degrees for both planets and luminaries.
You’ll probably be the best judge on whether Mars aspects your Sun.
Consider if there is a “mundane aspect”, which means that it’s not across the
line of the signs. If Mars conjunct Jupiter is nearly exact yet Mars is not
within 10 degrees of aspect then Jupiter itself must be in wide aspect to the
Sun. Most authors say that the aspect is not felt powerfully when so wide
and although you may feel it sometimes it’s not compelling like it would be
if narrow. And a Mars Square Sun would be felt more easily than the Sextile.
The narrow conjunction between Mars and Jupiter will probably feel
compelling since conjunctions themselves have so much impact and nearly exact
conjunctions are the most compelling of all aspects. All three planets are
fire planets so the addition of the Sun to this complex will increase the
fire but, because Sun is in wide aspect to Jupiter and apparently beyond 10
degrees of being in aspect with Mars, it may be like adding a small log onto
a brightly burning flame and will not increase the fire by more than a small
amount.
Maybe more important than whether Sun is in aspect to Mars are
considerations of the element, sign, and house position of the 3 planets and
whether this Fire is integrated into your whole chart easily or in a more
difficult fashion. It is not very meaningful to remove one item from the
chart and try to understand it without considering the whole chart in which
that item is constrained to exists. Mars conjunct Jupiter in Fire and
Angular would sit in the chart of Alexander the Great more easily than it
would in the chart of Edgar Cayce or Thich Nhat Hanh. Mars conjunct Jupiter
in Earth acts very differently than in Fire. And the same conjunction in the
12th house acts differently than when in the 10th house or the 1st house or
conjunct an angle.
Here is a list of some with Mars conjunct Jupiter for your understanding.
They all seem to have ambition, motivation, courage, adventure, and are
certain burning driving energy. The conjunction seems to be in several
political figures but may not fit easily into the chart of spiritual types
unless it were Joan of Arc. If this aspect were a Tarot card it might be the
Knight of Wands. Look to the sign and house wherein this conjunction
occurs.

Marlene Dietrich, Walt Disney, Amelia Earhart, Queen Elizabeth II, Alexander
Fleming, Aretha Franklin, Hermann Goering, Billie Holiday, Erica Jong, JFK

To get the time correction for daylight savings and your actual chart just
enter your birth information into My Astro (button in banner) and then select
Astro Click Portrait under Free Horoscopes. It will give your planets and

Again and again people don't seem to understand that the daily horoscope on
this website is just a part of the whole picture. It is just a little part of
all the transits that are going on in an individuals horoscope at the same
time.
And people don't seem to understand that the texts of some transits
(especially the moon but also mercury, venus and mars) keep returning because
the cycles keep returning.

Minh N g o: The Introduction to Planets in Transit by Robert Hand (c) 1976
Para Research Inc, Whitford Press, says, of transits, that //one can learn
what you are most likely to experience, emotionally, psychologiacally and
circumstantially, under each transit// (3) and in the same paragraph he
distinguishes his approach //from texts oriented primarily to predicting the
events that will happen to you.// The entire introduction deserves a good
reading. Hand says on page 5 //It is my belief, which I cannot prove here,
that within each of us is a creative core that actively creates the
universe.//
He states in the same paragraph that the horoscope becomes //a symbol of your
intentions, not a record of what is going to happen to you.//
There is a poem by Blake where to prove that what is in one's hand is just
sand, it is thrown at the wind. The wind blows it back, lit up as gems.
Shelly said the poetic faculty is necessary to see the gems.

To the proprietors of the astro.com website.
It has come to my attention that potentially libelous and scandalous
information is being used in the description of an individual, named Billy
Meier, who is listed in your VIP Twins section. The description is “SS
Leader”. If you are meaning he was an SS Nazi leader, you are completely
mistaken. Mr. Meier was born on February 3, 1937. That means he was only
eight years old at the end of the Nazi regime. If you knew anything about
Mr. Meier, you would know he is against wars of all kind, except those that
are necessary for self-defense, and would never have supported the Nazi
regime. Please remove the offending description immediately.

Alois adds: You are right, I do not know how this description was assigned.
In German, it said 'claims contact with extraterrestrials'. It has been
corrected also in the english version.
I would like to express my sincerest thanks for the personal portrait that I
have received from your website. It has truly reflected most of my potentials
and helped to identify those I vaguely felt about before.
However, on the other hand, I was quite let down by what was depicted in your
personal daily horoscope. It seemed to bear little relation to what I
actually went through.
Personally I regard this as proof of the limitations of astrology when it
comes to predicting about specific events at certain times in people's lives.
But is that really true?
I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Tolle Seite -
endlich habe ich Ephemeriden gefunden- und schon habe ich meine Probleme mit
dem Ablesen. Ich wollte nachschauen, ob ein am 21.06.06 geborenes Kind
Zwilling oder Krebs ist. Laut meinem Computerprogramm wäre es nur bis 14.20
Uhr Zwilling. Ich kann das aber in der Tabelle nicht ablesen. Wer kann mir
weiterhelfenß

Alois adds: Geben Sie doch unter Gratishoroskope -> Horoskopzeichnung
einfach das Kind als neue Person ein.
Bereits während der Dateneingabe wird das Sonnen- und Mondzeichen und der
Aszendent rechts oben angezeigt, sobald genug Daten da sind.
Dear Astro
What would be the reason for my husband being negatively influenced in an
area we both lived in, which astrologically looked absolutely positive in
every way, (Jupiter ic, Sun ic etc.,) for him and it was supposed to be
positive for me and it was. His date of birth and time are correct so i have
to discount that. It is an important question for me as we are about to move
to Stuttgart from the States and last time I lived in Germany unfortunately
what Astrodienst predicted was correct. Are some people more sensitive than
others? Then i would like to find a way to desensitise myself this time.....

Alois adds: Please, do not take the information from AstroClick Travel
too serious. It does not interpret the birth chart, it does not synthesize.
I would say that this kind of relocation information can only be a minor
factor in any consideration.
hallo, ich würde mich freuen, wenn sie auch aspekte und stand des chirons in
ihre gratishoroskope miteinbringen könnten. auch wäre es super, wenn man
horokope schon im voraus anse´hen könnte zb für das unterschreiben von
dingen, kauf von häusern etc..
vielen dank m. e.

thanks for your site. it is the best i have found. i have a question
regarding chiron in the composite chart for hassan and gina, appears in the
12th house at 28 15 23, trine the sun, venus and neptune, square the moon,
and opposing pluto, uranus and jupiter. wow huh? i am feeling that it serves
to pull the relationship onto another level, i think it forms a grand trine
on the cusp of water fire, but i'm not so good at this yet. i am also
thinking that it helps to modify the saturn opposition to asc and mars. you
will note our age difference. which aspect is it that makes us feel fated to
be together? any input? both of us are reluctant healers and our relationship
seems to be serving to heal us as individuals, too. thank you for your
response. (i would buy the interpretation but as you see we live in egypt and
don't have near that kind of cash to put out... yet! 60 usd is beer, food and
cigarettes for two for a whole week here!) thanks again,
gina

To make things abundantly clear regarding the Free Reports:
Each of the free reports is stated (in their Introduction) to be a Sample
and meant as an advertisement for the respective full 20-30 page report by
the same author.
Personal Portrait is a Sample from AstroText Portrait by Robert Pelletier
Children and Young People is a Sample from AstroText Youth by Robert Hand
Love, Flirtation, and Sex is a Sample from AstroText Love by John Townley
Forecast is a Sample from AstroText Forecast by Robert Hand
Partner is a Sample from AstroText Partner by Robert Hand

Feedback from the sidelines for Mari Pate:
I think you’re being unfair by repeatedly criticizing Astrodienst on this
subject. The facts are they have made available to everyone, at no cost, a
small sample of the AstroText Portrait and they state so clearly and up front
in the Introduction of that sample report. Since that statement is explicit
and not implied no “reading between the lines” is required. Quoting the
Introduction's opening lines: “This report is a short edition of the
AstroText Portrait. It is meant as a sample and advertisement for the full
version of the AstroText Portrait which can be ordered from Astrodienst as a
bound report of about 20 - 30 pages.”
It seems unfair of you to blame the site for the fact that you did not read
or understand the opening statement in the Sample. Beyond that, the sample
looks to be only 3 or 4 pages from a 20-30 page report, which means that you
have an additional 16-26 pages of material for which you paid and received.

In response to Alois on July 1st from Mari Pate. As far as advertising goes
wouldn't it be better not have something that is identical to the free
report and just offer what you think people would like to have as opposed to
saying short report and assuming we should just know what that means? Just an
idea! There's that practical taurus in me liking to get something back for
what was paid for. My mistake on not being able to read between the lines.
Good Luck

About Astrology - was just reading the horoscope magazine and was not
surprised to read that when a client goes to see an astrologer it's because
their life is not working or it isn't what they want. When I did readings I
did touch on the good areas of their lives but was quick to jump in the areas
that aren't working, such as a Saturn opposition to their Venus or a
conjunction. To me I felt they should know the truth about what's going on
in their love life but I could see the disappointment in their eyes when I
did not tell them what they wanted to hear. With all my Pisces planets of
compassion how I wished I could patch the bobo and tell them that Prince
Charming was just a few days away. Instead I encouraged them to cultivate
friendships with both sexes and at least they would not be lonely. Of course
when the planets were right, they met the right person either thru friends or
it just happened. What I seem to get with people writing in is that they
don't get that Astrology is only a tool to decipher our lives - it doesn't
make it what we want. I also read that a strong influence from Nepture,
ruler of Pisces, can produce extremely... lazy people who prefer to take life
easy. Would Einstein ( Pisces) be consired lazy - he was trown out of school
as a youngster. Would Chopin - the same - would the first President of the
United States - George Washington - the same - would Renoir, Caruso, Fats
Domino, Jackie Gleason, Gorbachev, Dr. Seus, Yuri Gagarin, the first man in
space, the list goes on - all worked more on their intuition than solid
facts. It's when we don't take everything into consideration that we feel
defeated. Every month I list the 10 things I want to happen in my life -
influenced by the particular Zodiak sign - like now Cancer - dealing with
nurturing and the home - next month Leo dealing with taking risks, playing
more, trying to be more sel-confident, etc. and this gets me into all the
facets of the sign and the study of it. It's fun and it brings results. I
didn't get my Mercedes yet but I'm working on it - Just met the most
wonderful man who owns one. Keep studying as Astrology is a never ending
science just as our passage here is getting to know our mission and what we
are all about. In life there are no comparisons or competition, as we are
all different and meant to be that way. We are special and wonderful. Vive
la Difference!

I have been interested in astrology for years. I think this sight is the most
detailed and comprehensive astrology sight I have been to. I decided to pay
to have a chart done. I was very disappointed. Almost everything that was in
the free reading was sent to me in my chart I paid for. There was not much in
it that was not in the free reading. So why did I spend the money? The only
thing that was expanded on was what each house meant and how that planet
might affect it. The reading was verbatim of the free reading. Very
disappointed!!!

Alois adds: I am sorry you got disappointed. You ordered one of our low cost
horoscopes, 'Astrotext Partner'. This is indeed based on the same text
as the free report 'Short report partner', which begins
with the sentence "This report is a short edition of your and your partner's
AstroText Partner.".
So, it should not really have been a surprise to find a lot of what you
had already read in the free report.
You should have ordered Liz Greene's 'Relationship Horoscope'.
