Introduction to the Astrology of Lebron James

*Please note, reports are generated in second person.

Your natal horoscope, or birth chart, is a snapshot of the heavens at the moment you were born. It shows what the sky actually looked like at the time and place of your birth. Astrology in modern times has renewed the ancient discovery that the symbolism of the planets that surrounded you at birth describes your character and personality. Planets that were directly overhead at the time and place of your birth are most important, and would appear at the very top of the chart or the Midheaven. Planets that were just rising above the horizon in the East at the time of your birth would appear near the horizontal line at the left hand side of the chart or the Ascendant. If the Sun appears in the top half of the chart, then you were born during daylight hours and have a more outer directed personality. All of these features reflect the factors at play in the Universe at the moment of your birth and are significant indications of the basic qualities and tendencies that continue to make up your personality.  

Each planet's relative position in the sky and significant angles that it makes to the other planets, or aspects, are examined in this report. Please keep in mind that you are not limited by these descriptions. Your natal horoscope does not prescribe your fate. The stars incline, they do not compel. Your birth chart shows potentials that you can either struggle to fulfill or deny. The choice is yours. Beneficial aspects, or planetary positions, are areas of life in which you show natural talent and achieve easy success. Challenging aspects, or planetary positions, can become your greatest asset if you can learn to be aware of how that dynamic plays out in your life and the world at large. The strongest and most important features of your chart are described first. For definitions of astrological terms, please refer to the glossary at the end of this report.

Chart Patterns

Bowl, leading planet Pluto  

Since your planets fall within half of the available chart space, in the planetary pattern called the 'bowl' shape, the hemisphere in which they are located tends to be your strong suit. You may also notice a focus on achievement in the unoccupied area of your chart, where innate talent may be lacking. You may feel a need to fill this space, perhaps focusing on the mid-point of the empty hemisphere. In the use of your talents, as represented by the occupied side of your chart, the planet that is the leader of the bowl shape symbolizes energies you utilize in achieving your purpose.  

Pluto in the Second House (or sign) gives you tremendous focus around the issue of money and material possessions. With this placement you will transform your attitude toward the material, and your values in general, as you go through life. Finding your own base, independent of cultural norms, is an important theme for you. You may be apt to associate a sense of security with material possessions, or find yourself spending in a compulsive way for no apparent reason. You are a financial powerhouse, but there can be swings of fortune, up and down, as you will likely go through many changes in your attitude toward the material in the course of your life's journey. You may find that you move toward a more connected sense of security as you mature, one that does not stem from feelings of isolation and lack. You can then overcome your tendency to obsess on having enough through self-discipline and a realigning of values. When your values transform, your sense of self no longer depends on physical possessions, but rather on the deeper meaning associated with these things, which are symbolic of love and sharing.  

The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:  

Pluto in Scorpio (or the eighth house) gives you a serious and willful personality, with an intense focus on personal transformation. You feel deeply, and may have an almost psychic awareness of the feelings of others. You have strong desires, and are single-minded about pursuing them. You may need to combat a tendency to manipulate others for your own purposes. You may also exhibit compulsive behavior around the issue of sexuality, or in insisting that you get your own way, and you benefit from loosening your grip. There is a tendency to project onto others the issues that you are called upon to deal with in yourself, in your own inner temple, and to seek to change your situation in the battlefield of sexual encounter rather than through the independent actions of your whole and entire self. You will likely go through many changes as the course of your life unfolds. The challenges that you meet are for the ultimate purpose of allowing you to see more deeply into your own inner motivation. You may become fascinated with occult studies as a way of tuning into a deeper reality than that of the surface. It benefits you to turn away from manipulating others and to learn to use your powerful presence to regenerate your own life, transforming self-centeredness into a more spiritual sense of personal power.

Important Features

Moon in Aries (8° Ari 29' 06") Moon in the Seventh House  

The Moon in Aries gives an ardent nature with inclinations to impatience, independence and impulsiveness. With this placement, you have a high energy level. You also have a strong competitive streak, which, together with your attack first attitude, may conceal subtle feelings of insecurity. Your emotions are keenly felt, direct and spontaneous. You may have to guard against a quick temper. You should also guard against a tendency toward a too hasty reaction to situations, rather than a more carefully reasoned approach. You are most comfortable thinking of yourself as strongly independent with great physical daring and courage.  

The Moon in the Seventh House represents an emotional sensitivity in the area of interpersonal relationships. You are likely to be very social and may be quite popular. You feel comfort and harmony when you are in some form of intimate partnership with others who reflect your emotions back to you. You are very aware of how others affect you as an emotional being. You become more aware of yourself when you perceive your effects on those intimately close to you. You can easily become emotionally dependent on other people. You may attract a sensitive and moody partner who you can nurture. You may find yourself engaged in an emotional balancing act between yourself and another. You may have a difficult time perceiving yourself as a separate or unique individual outside your intimate relationships. It is important for you to learn how to value your own emotional needs, wants, and desires independent of the partnership energy which you connect to habitually.

Neptune in Capricorn (1° Cap 25') Neptune in the Fourth House  

Neptune in the Fourth House (or sign) gives an emotionally sensitive and loving personality. You have powerful psychic tendencies. You were no doubt strongly influenced by your home life, and may tend to idealize these formative experiences. You may have suffered by being let down in some way by your same-sex parent, or there may have been an unsettled early home life leading to deep-rooted feelings of insecurity. As an adult, you may not be fully at home in your family setting, and may seek a vague and undefined sense of tribal connection with other people in your life, as if to make up for this. Your home is also quite important to you, and you may change residences frequently in search of your ideal environment. You could perhaps suffer a loss of family, or part of your family connection, leading to potentially painful realizations. These realizations may in turn lead you to a more depersonalized and spiritual basis for the concept of family life.  

The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:  

Neptune in Capricorn (or the tenth house) gives a charming personality with an idealistic nature. You may achieve much in the helping professions, or as a spiritual leader. You may also have a musical career. You tend to give more than you receive in your employment, and possess an almost naïve idealism where your work is concerned. Your work must be spiritually satisfying or you will lose interest. You are apt to be susceptible to suggestion, and may suffer disappointment in other people coming through for you. You also have a tendency to avoid responsibility. There may have been difficulties or confusion in your early years, especially with regard to parental motivations. You also may idealize parental figures, and the image that you have of your parents may change and become less idealized as you mature. In general, you must learn to clarify your goals. You will not be content with an ordinary job, but must seek out some career that is a real calling. At your best you express the highest ideals of society and find true joy in your vocation.

Mars in Pisces (3° Pis 46') Mars in the Sixth House  

Mars in the Sixth House (or sign) gives a kind nature, and an energetic worker, with a tendency to be fussy over details. You possess a tremendous desire to be helpful to others, and have a practical and hard-working orientation that assists you in making good on your intentions. You may however need to evolve through getting into conflicts over trifles. At your best, you have a real focus on the simple issues of life, and of the health of the body temple, and just showing up for what comes, day-to-day, that is essentially good natured and constructive rather than ego-oriented. You tend to be somewhat narrow in the application of your effort, and may need to learn to learn to start opening up to the bigger picture. It benefits you to take a more relaxed attitude and a wider and more tolerant worldview, rather than getting hung up on the minutiae of a project.  

Mars in Pisces (or the twelfth house) gives a sensitive and retiring nature. You have a tendency to be withdrawn. You are easily influenced by others, and can also sometimes be moody and introspective. You can also get lost in your dreams at times, and it may be that for you, at these times, only your inner world is real. You tend to resent and be discontent with your situation or that of society. You tire easily, for your physical energy is somewhat variable. You may need to work through a lack of straightforwardness with others, and it benefits you greatly to stand up for your beautiful sense of truth, and to learn to be more decisive in relation to the affairs of the world around you. Your quiet exterior masks a restlessly searching interior process, which strives for nothing less than the transformation of yourself and society into a more ideal system.

Sun in Capricorn (8° Cap 41' 24") Sun in the Fourth House  

The Sun represents your will and purpose, your sense of vitality, and your evolving higher Self. In Capricorn it is Cardinal-Earth, and rules the bones, skin and knees. Your ruling planet is Saturn. Capricorn people are ambitious and practical, and you are likely to have an excellent sense of social responsibility. You also tend to be conscious of social mores, perhaps to the point of over-concern. Your natural caution allows you to advance slowly and steadily to the top. Capricorn represents the accomplishments of the material and the quest for prestige, honor and success in public achievement. It is also possible that the driving force behind your ambition partially lies in deep-rooted feelings of insecurity. You put yourself under enormous pressure to perform, and can feel personally responsible for those around you. You may have suffered from a restrictive early environment, and your aloofness may serve to protect you from dealing with a fear of intimacy, or low self-esteem. You exemplify the values of hard work and accomplishment, and service to the goals of humanity, and your redemption comes when you allow the spiritual joy that you feel inside to fully express itself in graceful acts of loving-kindness.  

The Sun in the Fourth House represents a concentration of the vital force of self-nurturing and taking care of those closest to yourself. Your inner, spiritual world is more important to you than mundane achievements. You seek your own roots, your own sense of security, your own inner needs. It is also possible that your personal identity can become confused with your need to identify with your family. As you go through life, you may feel the necessity of beginning to distinguish your own sense of self separately from family ties. One or both of your parents profoundly shaped your sense of nurturing, probably the parent that you were emotionally closest to. Your task is to learn what types of family experiences truly nurture you, and others, in order to discard those that do not serve you well. You may make a prolonged search for your roots in order to discover your own source of personal security. You do best when you allow yourself to explore variations of your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others wisely and be able to share within a wider circle your capacity to nurture and be nurtured.

Chiron in Gemini (4° Gem 13'R) Chiron in the Ninth House  

Chiron in the Ninth House (or sign) represents issues with one's vital force of abstracting and understanding universal truth. This placement can lead to high achievement in the scholastic arena, but it may be nagging doubts that you are not really good enough that spur you on, rather than a pure love of learning. There is likely to be some form of painful realization surrounding the pursuit of wisdom, or perhaps in the area of philosophy or religion. It may be that parental figures had different notions of what makes the world make sense than you did, but for one reason or another you didn't take them on. Perhaps you were too young at the time for such a challenge, and now in your adult life you feel the pull of the beat of a distant drummer, but feel ambivalent or not sure enough of yourself to really do anything about it. In your frustration you may even seek to help other people to work out their own concepts of higher knowledge, while you yourself remain stuck in the mud of prior patterns. If so, it is time to shake off the shackles of the past and get on with your individual sense of your own philosophical values and visions. Perhaps by delving into what associations you have with bad models from early childhood, you can begin to more fully and completely inhabit the natural vision that belongs to your higher self. Then you can truly shine in the world of ideas, as you move out from your own center rather than the point of balance represented by other, more alien, philosophies.  

The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:  

Chiron in the Gemini (or the Third House) represents issues regarding developing one's intellect and communicating one's ideas with others. With this placement you may feel an almost compulsive curiosity regarding other people. Your desire is strong to communicate and to explore your world intellectually, but you may feel some kind of barrier that separates you from others at the same time. These feelings of being blocked in your ability to communicate and to get your point across can even manifest physically as a form of stuttering, or another ailment that prevents clear communication. These may seem physical, but the physical and the mental are so intimately related it really is hard to say. If there is a psychological reason behind difficulties in communicating with others, it is likely to be found in early youth, when it was quite important to communicate with your peers. Perhaps there was some group that you felt cut off from in the casual cruelty of that era, or perhaps you felt that you were not fully accepted by important siblings. In your efforts to be accepted and to get through to others you may overcompensate by seeming very competitive or desiring to be recognized for the extent of your knowledge. Whatever the childhood trauma that continues to give you difficulties in adult life, it is important to try to understand and relate well to your earlier self. If you can learn to love and accept who you were then, as well as who you are today, you will come a long way toward full participation in your communication with others. In your quest for wholeness it is quite possible that you will be drawn to helping others to communicate, perhaps taking on the role of a speech therapist or other helping person in other people's lives. As you begin to fully accept yourself you will be even more able to help others in their particular road to fulfillment also.

Venus in Aquarius (24° Aqu 20') Venus in the Fifth House  

Venus in Aquarius gives a calm and detached nature. You are idealistic, even revolutionary in your outlook, and want to see a better society emerge from the vagaries of the present day. You are an admirer of symmetry and elegance, with an enthusiastic appreciation of artistic form in music, poetry, and painting. You function well in friendships and in groups, but you may not always be happy in intimate connections with significant others. Your love is broader and more general, and you may be given to spiritual or philanthropic activities rather than to close personal relationships. You may go through many changes in your love life, being very open to new influences that suddenly come up for you. You benefit from deepening and more fully expressing your affection for one person in particular.  

Venus in the Fifth House represents a strong connection within you between artistic sensibility and creative self-expression. You have a great capacity for joy in your life, which expresses itself in acts of caring and giving to others. You are a proud standard bearer for what you value. You are dramatic and dignified, and also very caring and compassionate, but you may expect to get your way just a little too often for your own good, and are likely to put yourself through a reality check from time to time as a balance. You seem sure of yourself, because at base you are well grounded in appreciation of your own self-worth. You may possess the talent of a dramatic actor, which makes you an asset in social situations, and which you will no doubt use to great effect to get what you want. You have a great capacity to let the child within flow through you, as an outlet of energy that is creative in the highest sense.

Uranus in Sagittarius (15° Sag 16') Uranus in the Third House  

Uranus in the Third House (or sign) gives an individual who is restless and mentally acute, with an ability to grasp new concepts quickly. You are likely to change your focus quite a bit. Education is important to you, and you actively explore new subjects and disciplines, becoming adept at all of them, but perhaps without fulfilling long-term commitments. You are one who is able to spark new ideas in the minds of others. Your relations with friends and associates are also likely to vary sporadically. You may have had upsetting circumstances in the area of early home life or in relations with your brothers and sisters, so that the underpinning of sibling relations represents for you an instability. You have the ability to think freely, unhampered by conventional attitudes or public opinion, and you can also benefit from developing self-discipline in your mental function. You have a need for unique expression in your life that corresponds to a higher vision to create new kinds of mental systems and new forms of communication.  

The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally:  

Uranus in Sagittarius (or the ninth house) gives an individual with an original and inventive mind, strong intuitive powers, and a love of philosophy and higher learning. With this placement you have definite religious, or quasi-religious beliefs, and these are usually expressed in an unconventional manner. You have a visionary sense of optimism and possess high ideals, and you are also apt to be nervous, or high-strung, and perhaps inclined to reckless behavior. You like to explore new perspectives, either mentally or through travel. You bring your own unique viewpoint to educational or pedagogical concerns, and may be an inspiring teacher. You can also be the rebellious type, as you have the capacity to visualize new possibilities rather than accept an outmoded status quo. For you, the horizon line does not remain fixed, but is always moving forward into new territory. At your best, you have the faith to bring forth a new vision for yourself and society at large.

Saturn in Scorpio (24° Sco 34') Saturn in the Second House  

Saturn in the Second House (or sign) gives great loyalty, reliability, stamina and persistence, and a deepening or concentration of the desire to possess, both materially and with respect to loved ones. You are conservative financially, and feel that it is important to hold on to what you've got. You may be jealous at times. You may have doubts regarding your self-worth, or the basis of your security in this world. You tend to be traditional in your approach to life. You are a lover of art as well as natural beauty, and this love extends to the beauty of your surroundings. You perhaps have a tendency to overrate the importance of material things. You may fear poverty or loosing your possessions and this fear can also manifest as a desire for more and more which can never be satisfied. On the other hand you may try to deny the material in an over-zealous attack on "money as the root of all evil." Your lesson is to find your own true inner worth in terms of your character, your high standards, and your service to others.  

Saturn in Scorpio (or the eighth house) gives a strong personality with intense emotions. There can be a deepening and concentration, or a blockage, of your feeling nature so that many and complex emotions are generated. You are shrewd, apt to be secretive, and may have something of a power-complex. You can be prone to jealousy. You are likely to have fears surrounding the issue of emotional closeness and sexuality, and being able to give of yourself, so that you may suffer greatly through thwarted desire. You fear the blending of your life with another, yet paradoxically that sense of merged realities is quite important to you, even longed for. Your reactions to events may seem to be almost automatically determined at a deep subconscious level, so that you are actually unfamiliar with your true motivation. You may become a student of the occult, as a means to explore the dark realms with your psyche. Your lesson is to learn to master and bring to consciousness the hidden drives within you, transforming this energy into healing power, both for yourself and for others around you as well.

Mercury in Sagittarius (16° Sag 36') Mercury in the Third House  

Mercury in Sagittarius gives a keen-witted and idealistic mentality, perhaps lacking in concentration. You have great powers of logic and deduction, but your thought process may be somewhat scattered. You are always visualizing grand possibilities and centering your perceptions on the larger issue, rather than on the details, which may bore you. You are very direct in thought and expression and will say exactly what is on your mind. This gives you a reputation for having a lack of tact. You can also be impatient and tend to jump to conclusions. Your thought process is better suited for advocating your position on a particular topic than for cautious investigation before making a determination, or a commitment. You benefit from developing more of a 'wait and see' attitude.  

Mercury in the Third House represents a strong mentality with an innate awareness of intellectual matters. You possess a keen, alert and expressive mind. You love variety in your life, and have great versatility along with a capacity to take up many different skills. You constantly perceive the world around you, and everything your awareness touches becomes a field for your intellectual attainment. Your approach to mental pursuits is abstract, rather than practical, and also may be surface-oriented rather than deep and philosophical. You may appear restless or high-strung. You excel at written communication, and you also speak rapidly and well, and enjoy conversation with many different types of people. The world of information and information-exchange affords you endless pleasure. An inveterate generalist, you profit from narrowing your focus and concentrating on a particular area. It also benefits you to you cultivate periods of inner stillness.

Jupiter in Capricorn (21° Cap 03') Jupiter in the Fourth House  

Jupiter in the Fourth House (or sign) gives you a loving, kind and caring personality, very friendly and sociable, generous and high-minded. You have an instinct for nurturing others, and find enjoyment as well as opportunity in this type of tribal sharing. You have an inherent spirituality, which is thus displayed not in philosophy, but in acts of love and generous giving of yourself. You work well with the public, and are likely to be popular with your entire circle, and tend to attract material rewards without seeming to try for them. You possess a natural sense of security based on what was perceived as a happy childhood. You have an inclination toward the poetical and mystical or the marvelous side of life.  

Jupiter in Capricorn (or the tenth house) gives you a serious and conscientious personality. You are also very practical and have a talent for working with the public. You tend to be extremely careful with money, making a good manager, and have a strong drive to achieve success. You may be perhaps somewhat miserly with the gift of your affection. You can also be fearful of risking the fruits of your achievement, definitely not a risk-taker. You may refrain from taking chances that would in fact succeed. Although you have good prospects in life, your opportunities usually come from hard work and dedication. Tradition plays a large part in molding your ideals. You are noble and honorable in your connection with society around you, and enjoy being known as a good role model for others to follow.

Sun, Moon, Rising Sign Features

Libra Rising  

The Rising Sign is the mask shown to others, also the physical appearance.  

People with Libra Rising are gracious, attractive and fair-minded. You are a seeker of harmony and beauty. Your ruling planet is Venus, and you are known for your good taste, elegance and charm. Libra is the sign of balance and relationship. The sun in Libra is at the equinox, when day equals night, and similarly Libra strives for harmony between polarizations. Your natural mode of living is in partnership with others. Intimate relationships are quite important to you, as are issues of social justice. You forever hope that all parties to a conflict will be satisfied, and you have a tendency to understand and support both sides of a dispute, which is likely to drive your friends crazy. You will also go out of your way to avoid a quarrel, and you may have a hard time making a decision. An excellent outlet for your love of beauty is in artistic pursuits of all kinds. You benefit from strengthening your will to act in favor of your higher purpose, which lies ultimately in dedicating yourself to humanity.  

Neptune in strong square (within 0.4 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.  

This aspect gives a highly sensitive, visionary and creative individual. You are somewhat unworldly. You are likely to be artistic or musical. You are softhearted, and you may be perhaps even too willing to sacrifice yourself for the good of others. You may have problems in feeling free to assert yourself, or have issues with lack of self-confidence, self-deceptive illusions, or drugs. You may also be dissatisfied with work activities, or evade decisions, or practice other forms of escapism. You may have issues with deceptions practiced on you by other people. The development of a clearer sense of self is required. The otherworldly energy of Neptune must be used wisely. When the proper outlet is found, tremendous creativity is possible, perhaps manifested through artistic channels: music, drama, poetry. Your lesson may be to achieve a balance between the spiritual dimension of reality and ordinary life.

Mars in inconjunct (within 2.0 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed.  

This aspect gives a rash personality with a quick temper. You lack patience and tend to be argumentative. You are restless and have a forceful drive, which can lead you to accomplish great things, if properly harnessed. You are likely to possess a wiry and spare physique. You are also excitable, tend to run risks, and can be opinionated. You are daring and have great physical vitality and stamina. You can definitely "hold your own" in a dispute. You are sometimes hard to talk with, seeming to take your own position at the expense of others, and you should beware of abrasive behavior towards them, such as bragging or pushing yourself too much. You usually mean well, and need to temper your physical drive with calmness and judgment.  

Uranus in quintile (within 1.4 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies are positively linked, subtle, and spiritual in dimension.  

This aspect gives an independent and strong-willed individual. You love freedom from conventionality. You like to start new projects, or make changes in your life, but without completely eliminating previous foundations. You may have issues with commitment and responsibility. You are an original and independent thinker. Your task is to more fully express your visionary impulses in order to make these more concretely available in your own life, and in the life of society around you.

Chiron in trine (within 2.4 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.  

With this aspect between Chiron and the Ascendant in your chart you are likely to experience painful realizations throughout your own life and have the ability to heal others as well. Chiron is called "the wounded healer" because it represents the archetype of imperfection and loss which when integrated leads to compassion and understanding of others' suffering. The empathy and the understanding that are gained through life's trials provide the ability to serve as a helper and a healer for others. You are more invested in this archetype than most, since Chiron is in a powerful connection with your rising point, symbolizing the self that you present to the world, esoterically your true self. You have probably experienced a certain degree of pain and frustration related to your self-concept, possibly in relation to trauma in your early years concerning parental care or perhaps similar issues with your peers. These early experiences may have made it hard to accept the love of others in your adult life. It is good to make the effort to connect yourself consciously with any painful events that may be buried in your unconscious, so that these will no longer have so much power over you. You do have a great deal compassion and empathy for others, and you are likely to be someone with career possibilities in the helping professions. You may strongly desire to help other people, and yet be unable to give them the full benefit of your higher self. It is good to integrate your past experiences, no matter how painful they may have been, and no matter how painful these feelings continue to be for you in adult life. When you have made a solid transition from existing in a divided state to a more balanced and integrated whole, you can be of much more actual service to other people, since you are more available to yourself.

Sun in weak square (within 6.9 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.  

This aspect between the Sun and Ascendant gives a strong-willed and generous personality. You are dramatic and assertive, also creative, self-confident and more than a bit self-indulgent. Like Leo rising people you expect to be the center of attention, and often are. You also have great energy, courage and honesty and are very proud. Your challenge is to become more aware of yourself; to refrain from arrogance and egotism, and rather to develop humility and compassion, and to learn detachment in the gift of your affections.  

Moon in weak opposition (within 6.7 degrees) with Ascendant  

The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.  

This aspect between the Moon and Ascendant gives a nurturing and protective personality. You are subtle in your actions, rather than direct, and are likely to reflect the moods of those around you. Your sense of security and your home are important to you. You have a habit of moodiness, with your emotions frequently changing, and this can create problems in relating to others. You may feel at a loss to connect with others, not being sure of how they really feel towards you, and yet secretly desiring emotional contact with them. You also tend to act instinctively, rather than after reasoning out the situation. You can therefore benefit from shedding the light of conscious reason on your habitual patterns, and working toward greater focus on your true goals.

Sun in strong square (within 0.2 degrees) with Moon  

The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.  

This aspect gives a willful and strong-minded individual. There may be two sides to your approach to life, which do not always blend harmoniously: your will and your instinctual self. There is an emotional side to your nature that does not easily integrate with your sense of purpose or will power. You have a high energy level and good intelligence, and are very aware and alert, but you may feel a conflict between your public and private lives or the work you set out to accomplish versus more personal goals. You may have experienced your parents as inharmoniously related to each other and therefore may have a tendency toward argument and conflict in your own interpersonal relationships. There is a creative tension in your relationships, and also internally within your own personality, that may lead you to accomplish much in life, through the path of struggle rather than the path of ease and comfort.  

Sun in sextile (within 4.9 degrees) with Mars  

The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.  

This aspect gives a self-confident, active, and decisive personality. You have great physical vitality and stamina, are out-going and like to exercise your mental and physical powers. You are usually happiest when engaged in some form of activity. Right and constructive action seems to come naturally to you. You are likely to be outspoken, and possess great abilities in combat as well as athletics.

Sun in sextile (within 4.4 degrees) with Pluto  

The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.  

This aspect gives a willful personality with a focus on being recognized and admired. You have strong desires, and you also have a powerful urge toward self-transformation, and may go through many changes in your life. You are not shy about expressing your beliefs, and you may even feel a compulsion toward self-assertion or self-aggrandizement. You also tend to champion the underdog, and react strongly to social injustice. In relationships, you tend to become intensely involved quickly, and stay absorbed in the relationship as long as it lasts. There may be underlying feelings of insecurity leading to your rather self-centered and ego oriented behavior. Exploring these feelings can be incredibly rewarding for you, and should be quite possible, for you have tremendous powers of regeneration and rebirth. When you learn to train your considerable energy on these socially oriented as well as personal goals, you can become a focal point for the transformation of society itself.

Moon in sextile (within 4.3 degrees) with Chiron  

The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.  

With this aspect there are difficulties indicated in relating to the feminine - either significant female presences in your life or else and including your own feminine side. This would be true, and different in its sense, in either a man's or a woman's chart. Of course the important early model for the feminine is mother, and it is likely that you have a deep and intense relationship with your mother, which may have been productive of much wisdom. There also may be emotional scars from the very intensity of your experience together. These experiences may be so painful that they become suppressed from consciousness, buried deep in your psyche. In your adult life, it is important to move past any resentment you still feel, caused by early wounding in your relationship with the female part, or nurturing influence, of your own nature, so that you can begin to move into a more conscious and compassionate reconciliation with your walled off parts. Once you have begun to make conscious any pain and alienation you may feel surrounding events from the long-buried past, you can begin to truly help others as well as yourself. A creative side of your nature may emerge like a butterfly out of the outgrown past.

Venus in strong square (within 0.2 degrees) with Saturn  

The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.  

This aspect gives a personality with a deepening and concentration, or a blockage in the area of interpersonal relationships. You are sensitive and have a strong sense of duty. You are likely to be very loyal. You may have experienced coldness from one parent, or early love experiences may have proven painful. You may seem cold or uncaring yourself at times, or express jealousy or other feelings of inferiority, which may also manifest as a nagging discontent with life in general, or sorrow and difficulty in marriage. In a woman's chart there may be feelings of unattractiveness or fears regarding your femininity. You could also feel bitterness and disillusion with romance or fears of rejection concerning romantic contacts. Yet you also have an opportunity to rise above these circumstances in concentrated effort over time toward inner integration and balance, toward relationship more fully explored and felt, based on the self-confidence born of actual experience and mutual understanding.

Other Natal Planets

N Node in Taurus (26° Tau 34'R) N Node in the Ninth House  

Lunar North Node in the Ninth House (or sign). South Node in the third house or sign. This placement gives a thoughtful personality, with a focus on understanding moral or ethical belief systems. You may tend to scatter your energies, especially when young. In the past, or in past lifetimes, you concentrated your attention on superficial relationships of the everyday world. Now in this lifetime, your purpose seems to be to lift your attention toward a synthesis of higher consciousness. You will find great joy in pursuing the broader picture, whether in terms of educational perspectives or perhaps participation in cultures other than your own. Although curiosity regarding details and enjoyment of a multiplicity of points of view comes naturally to you, you must now learn to see the forest instead of the trees. Your focus now will become more and more the pursuit of higher knowledge and a deeper understanding of the motivations of others that was meant by the phrase "to understand all is to forgive all." A true philosophy of compassion is your goal.  

Lunar North Node in Taurus (or the second house). South Node in the eighth house or sign. This placement gives a personality somewhat focused around the issues of money and material possessions. In a previous period, or past lifetime, you were concerned with the utilization of other people's resources rather than your own. You also may have gotten involved with occult practices, or engaged in deep and even taboo relations with others, factors that shaped your past, and the residue of which still colors your present life experience. Now, in this lifetime, you must learn to marshall your own forces and be a resource unto yourself. You are in the process of clarifying your values, based on a new feeling of independence, having come through the fires of hell, as it were, in order to establish a more stable and lasting sense of self-worth.

Other Aspects

Mercury in strong conjunction (within 1.3 degrees) with Uranus  

The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.  

This conjunction gives an individual who is restless and mentally acute, with an ability to grasp new concepts quickly. You like to explore new ways of thinking and being, and are likely to be futuristic in your outlook. Education is important to you, and you have an excellent grasp of mechanical concepts. You are glib in your speech, and usually quite definite, although you may change your mind later on. You may be interested in studying occult realms of thought. You have the ability to think freely, unhampered by conventional attitudes. You can also appear opinionated at times, displaying a "know-it-all" attitude. You may lack discipline and persistence in bringing your vision to practical realization, and benefit from attaining better control of your mental process.  

Mars in strong trine (within 0.6 degrees) with Pluto  

The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.  

This aspect gives a personality with a tremendous drive for power and transformation of self. You are strong-willed almost to the point of ruthlessness, and you have enormous energy and endurance at your disposal. You may appear timid or unsure of yourself, since the power urge is commonly repressed, but then there is the potential for sudden bursts of anger due to the repressed emotion finally exploding to the surface. You may also have feelings of insecurity that are compensated for by being overly forceful, acting compulsively or even becoming obsessive about achieving your will. In a more positive manifestation, you can exhibit a dedication to higher ideals and a willingness to be a channel for healing yourself and society. The challenge is movement away from feelings of insecurity and resulting separateness and loneliness, toward a better acceptance of other's needs and opinions in order to generate wholeness, forgiveness towards self and others, and a new and better sense of self-worth.

Mars in strong square (within 0.5 degrees) with Chiron  

The planetary energies conflict; internal and creative tensions bring rich rewards through effort over time.  

With this aspect you have issues around expressing anger, as well as exerting personal will versus knuckling under to authority. You have enormous energy and endurance at your disposal, although you may appear timid or unsure of yourself, since your power urge is likely to be repressed. It may be that you have had many painful experiences with violence, or potential violence, on the part of someone close to you, perhaps in your early childhood. As a result of these experiences, you may fear the power of your own anger, and seek to placate your opponent in situations where a direct confrontation seems to be brewing. This aspect is the hallmark of a "passive-aggressive" attitude, in which there is hidden aggression under-expressed, rather than any form of direct attack. In fact, it is said that those with this aspect are often very good at eliciting angry behavior from others, while their own hands stay clean. This is because those people you come into close contact with may become the projection point for your own hidden violent feelings that you are failing to directly express yourself. It is often the case that the powerful emotions associated with this aspect hover below the level of conscious awareness in your psyche. As you become more aware of these patterns, you will less and less need to act them out either suppressed with passivity, or with bluster. Another manifestation of this aspect, perhaps paradoxically, is the ability to lead and be willful, to not take "no for an answer", to be ruthless in accomplishing one's aims. The willful energy of Mars is given a creative boost by Chiron, both in terms of suffering and in a better-integrated personality, in terms of conquest. A still better level of integration produces the self-assured and powerful personality who does not depend on others either to express his or her own desires, nor to be crushed by them.

Mars in strong trine (within 1.7 degrees) with Midheaven  

The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.  

You are likely to have an excellent ability to get things done, and also great drive to succeed at what you do. This aspect gives an assertive personality who desires success in public life. Career issues are very important for you, and you take pride in your many accomplishments. You are active in the pursuit of your goals with tremendous energy that needs that outlet.  

Neptune in strong opposition (within 0.7 degrees) with Midheaven  

The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.  

This combination gives a charming personality with an idealistic and deceptive nature. You may have a musical career or achieve much in the helping professions, although you will have to work at it. You are susceptible to suggestion, and you tend to give more than you receive in your employment. You may have a tendency to avoid responsibility. There may have been difficulties or confusion in your early years, especially with regard to the parental care you received at the time, and this issue can spill over into your adult life, when you may confuse others around you by your own lack of clarity. In vocation, you must learn to spell out your goals. You will not be content with most ordinary jobs, until you seek out some part of it that represents a real calling for you. At your best you express the societal ideals of brother- and sisterhood and find a spiritual joy in your work.

Mars in sextile (within 2.4 degrees) with Neptune  

The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.

You possess a good understanding of and balance between the practical and the ideal. You have a personal magnetism that can strongly influence other people. You are able to create images in the minds of others. You are very creative, and also very tolerant and understanding. You are likely to be quite sensitive to the needs of others, and may have the talent of a natural healer.

If you live up to this ideal, you will be a natural leader, being optimistic, yet practical, and possessing excellent judgment. For the early part of your life you may tend to hide your light under a basket; your powers are likely to grow as you mature.

Neptune in sextile (within 2.9 degrees) with Pluto  

The planetary energies flow together, open into new possibilities, new connections.  

This combination gives an individual with a personal involvement in the energies of the collective. This is a generational aspect, which many of your contemporaries will share with you. You have a subtle intuition and unusually clear insight into others. The influence of the unconscious is especially strong in you. You need to connect with your higher self in order to be happy. You function at your best in service to the world, helping to move it closer to a vision of spiritual union between all mankind.  

Pluto in inconjunct (within 0.1 degrees) with Chiron  

The planetary energies do not flow smoothly, one or the other predominates; discrimination must be employed.  

With this aspect you are likely to possess a somewhat compulsive nature. You have a tendency to plunge into the depths of despair as well as the heights of manic madness as a form of compensatory reaction to the over-indulgence of wallowing in the depths. There are great depths of passion within you, likely the result of painful experiences from early childhood. As long as these experiences remain unintegrated, they will cause a stir, both for yourself and for anyone you become close to. When you become more conscious of these patterns you have a great capacity to heal yourself and others. You have a keen intuition and great power to transform yourself and your personal relationships as you evolve.

Pluto in trine (within 2.2 degrees) with Midheaven  

The planetary energies flow smoothly; the connection is easy and beneficial.  

This combination gives a forceful personality with a focus on issues of authority, power and control. There may in fact be a compulsion for control manifesting in problems with interpersonal relations or in rebellious attitudes toward established authority, or perhaps in the charismatic personal magnetism of the natural leader. What is needed is a reevaluation and transformation of the urge for power and control, based on a deeper understanding of personal power and a more conscious and socially responsible use of it.  

Chiron in semi-sextile (within 2.1 degrees) with Midheaven  

The planetary energies attract each other, require effort, allow entry of new information.  

With this aspect of Chiron and your Midheaven, you likely have issues around exerting personal will versus knuckling under to authority. You have enormous energy and endurance at your disposal, although you may appear timid or unsure of yourself, since your power urge is likely to be repressed. It may be that you have had many painful experiences with authority. As a result of these experiences, you may fear the expression of your own personal power, and alternate between complying with the standards of society around you, or rebelling against them. You may avoid situations where a direct confrontation seems to be brewing. You also may feel more empowered in helping others than in getting your own act together, and this aspect can be the sign of someone with a career in the helping professions, perhaps involved with new age healing. It is often the case that the powerful emotions associated with this aspect hover below the level of conscious awareness in your psyche. As you become more aware of these patterns, you will less and less need to act them out either suppressed with passivity, or with bluster. Another manifestation of this aspect, perhaps paradoxically, is the ability to lead and be willful, to not take "no for an answer", to be ruthless in accomplishing one's aims. A better level of integration produces a newly self-assured personality whereby you do not depend on others either to fully express your own desires, nor to be swayed by theirs. When you have integrated the walled-off places in your psyche that inhibit action on the part of your whole entire self, you are available to yourself in situations of leadership, as well as in truly helping other people.

Sun in weak conjunction (within 7.3 degrees) with Neptune  

The strongest blend of the energies represented by these two planets.  

This conjunction gives a highly sensitive, visionary and creative individual. You are likely to be somewhat unworldly, possessing an ethereal quality, a marked remoteness from ordinary reality. You are likely to be artistic or musical. You are the softhearted type, and you may be too willing to sacrifice yourself for the good of others. You may also be dissatisfied with your work activities, or life in general, leading to the habit of evading decisions, or to other forms of escapism. In feeling unfree to assert yourself, you may engage in self-deceptive illusions, or even the use of drugs. To avoid these traps, you should strive for utmost honesty in your dealings with other people. The otherworldly energy of Neptune must be used in ways consistent with its visionary possibilities, or it will turn against itself. It is necessary for you to understand the power of this mystical force in your life. When the proper outlet is found, tremendous creativity is possible, perhaps manifested through artistic channels: music, drama, or poetry. Your lesson in all this is to achieve a balance between the spiritual dimension of reality and ordinary life.  

Sun in weak opposition (within 6.6 degrees) with Midheaven  

The planetary energies are polarized; outer events stimulate their interaction; integration is the challenge.

You are the softhearted type, and you are perhaps even too willing to sacrifice yourself for the good of others. You were probably strongly influenced by your home life, and may tend to idealize these formative experiences. You could have issues with self-deception or experience discontent with the practical realities of life for the urge within you to seek the highest ideal is very strong. Your home is important to you, and you may change residences frequently in search of your ideal environment, or dream of the ideal romantic attachment without ever finding the perfect mate. You benefit from striving for greater self-control in holding back your emotions, as well as clarity in applying your high ideals to the real world of logic and fact.
