Sigmund Freud's

Astrological Portrait

Introduction

To fully benefit from this portrait, we suggest that you read its introduction and its preamble carefully,and then that to take the time to soak up the interpretations of each chapter. Given the large number oftexts, which mirrors the human being's complexity, you may need to go through the contents severaltimes, so as to get a good grasp of their meaning and to know yourself better. This will reward yourpatience.

The purpose of this report is to describe your psychological portrait and to highlight the mostfundamental features on the personal area. The report begins with the analysis of your planetarydominants and outlines your personality's general traits before going into further detail. Minordominants are analysed at the end of Annex 1, for purposes of clarity. Your report then delineates thevarious facets of your personality:

In general, even when relationships are not involved, we express ourselves and we feel according to ourcharacter and our personal motivations: this is indicated by the Ascendant and the Sun sign which bothgive details on the way we function. They shed a tremendously important light which allows to figure outyour personality. Here, we describe your Sun sign (your inner self), your Ascendant (your behaviour asseen by others), and the ruler of the Ascendant (interesting additional pieces of information about thestyle of your personality). These descriptions alone cover nearly a third or a half of your psychologicalsignature, depending on your natal chart characteristics.

Then, we address your sensitivity, or in other words, the way you receive things and how you expressyour emotions ; it works as a constant filter for all your exchanges, even when it becomes a moresecondary element in your amorous relationship, because at that moment, affectivity prevails. Sensitivityis the way you perceive things, it is your radar, your daily mood, and at the same time, it indicates howyou react to your entourage, on a daily basis. It is what others immediately see of you. In the secondparagraph, we explain in which areas of life your sensitivity and your emotions are strongest, therefore,where you are most vulnerable.

After this, it is your affectivity, the way you love and how you charm, that comes into play as soon as youfall in love: the first part indicates its basic structure or its main form. The second part describes theareas where it is best expressed and how you display it, according to your personality.

A third fundamental area deals with your mode of action and your sexuality: how you behave, how youmanage to obtain what you want, what kind of desires you have. There are twelve possibilities, very

different from one another. The study discloses the specific one that applies to you. In the secondparagraph, we explain in which life areas you may most efficiently take advantage of your capacity foraction and for conquest.

Your ways of communicating and of thinking are obviously among the major elements that must beintegrated into the delineation and the description of your personality. Indeed, they influence yourgeneral behaviour and may modify or enhance the image your project (for instance, extraversion may“compensate” a weak affectivity, but a huge number of cases are possible). An additional chapterindicates the favourite areas where you enjoy communicating, thinking and meeting with people.

Besides, we analyze an even more personal aspect that is important to define and understand what mayoccur within your couple: each of us have a centre of interest, a privileged manner to be fulfilled or toachieve our destiny; this main motivation is indicated by the positions of your Sun and your chart ruler inthe astrological houses and we provide you with its detailed description.

A natal chart contains the potential for specific fulfilment and a whole range of assets, protections andqualities. How does the lucky factor manifest in your personality? In which area can you best exploityour qualities? The answers are precisely revealed to you in this chapter.

On the other hand, we all feel in us a part of vulnerability, doubts and fears. How does this part ofsolemnity or serious side play out? How is it possible to handle it in order to evolve and to get rid ofuseless elements? All this information is provided to you in these two paragraphs.

Then, you can discover three additional traits of your personality that must be considered as secondaryones. They deal with your predispositions, which means that they need to be triggered by external eventsbecause they are not influenced by your will; let's call it a part of fate. Please, bear in mind that yourdestiny can unfold only in accordance with what you are: therefore, even if they belong to your moreunconscious self, these characteristics are parts of you, definitely.

The karmic chart complements the psychological portrait or natal chart. It is based on the positions ofthe Lunar Nodes, the Black Moon, and the Part of Fortune. These elements of the chart, sometimesreferred to as fictitious points, provide information about the spiritual meaning of your destiny. Owing tothe fact that we all have in us acquired knowledge and the urge to go on a quest, our life is anevolutionary journey... However, these texts must be read with great caution: this is the reason why youwill find this analysis in the Annex 2 of your report.

Meaning of StarsStars indicate the strength of the aspects. Two solid coloured stars (there are half-stars also), mean thatthe aspect is powerful enough to be noticed at the first reading.

We strongly advise that you read the paragraphs displaying less than two stars later on, after you haveabsorbed the full import of the other texts.




The yellow colour indicates a soothing and conciliating aspect, and the red colour, a dynamic and tenseaspect. The red aspects enable you to evolve, to take action, and to learn to turn your "weaknesses" intoassets through your life experiences. The yellow aspects are innate strengths on which you rely in orderto grow better with the former...




PreambleWhen interpreting a natal chart, the best method is to start gradually from general features to specificones. Thus, there is usually a plan to be followed, from the overall analysis of the chart and its structure,to the description of its different character traits.

In the first part, an overall analysis of the chart enables us to figure out the personality's main featuresand to emphasize several points that are confirmed or not in the detailed analysis: in any case, thosegeneral traits are taken into account. Human personality is an infinitely intricate entity and describing itis a complex task. Claiming to rapidly summarize it is illusory, although it does not mean that it is animpossible challenge. It is essential to read a natal chart several times in order to absorb all its differentmeanings and to grasp all this complexity. But the exercise is worthwhile.

In brief, a natal chart is composed of ten planets: two luminaries, the Sun and the Moon, threefast-moving or individual planets, Mercury, Venus and Mars, two slow-moving planets, Jupiter andSaturn, and three very slow-moving planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Additional secondary elementsare: the Lunar Nodes, the Dark Moon or Lilith, Chiron and other minor objects. They are all posited onthe Zodiac wheel consisting of twelve signs, from Aries to Pisces, and divided into twelve astrologicalhouses.

The first step is to evaluate the importance of each planet. This is what we call identifying the dominantplanets. This process obeys rules that depend on the astrologer's sensitivity and experience but it alsohas precise and steady bases: thus, we can take into account the parameters of a planet's activity (thenumber of active aspects a planet forms, the importance of each aspect according to its nature and itsexactness), angularity parameters; (proximity to the four angles, Ascendant, Midheaven, Descendant andImum Coeli or Nadir, all of them being evaluated numerically, according to the kind of angle and theplanet-angle distance) and quality parameters (rulership, exaltation, exile and fall). Finally, other criteriasuch as the rulership of the Ascendant and the Midheaven etc. are important.

These different criteria allow a planet to be highlighted and lead to useful conclusions when interpretingthe chart.

The overall chart analysis begins with the observation of three sorts of planetary distributions in thechart: Eastern or Western hemisphere, Northern or Southern hemisphere, and quadrants (North-eastern,North-western, South-eastern and South-western). These three distributions give a general tone in termsof introversion and extraversion, willpower, sociability, and behavioural predispositions.

Then, there are three additional distributions: elements (called triplicity since there are three groups ofsigns for each one) - Fire, Air, Earth and Water - corresponding to a character typology, modality (orquadruplicity with four groups of signs for each one) - Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable - and polarity (Yinand Yang).

There are three types of dominants: dominant planets, dominant signs and dominant houses. The novicethinks astrology means only "to be Aries" or sometimes, for example, "to be Aries Ascendant Virgo". Itis actually far more complex. Although the Sun and the Ascendant alone may reveal a large part of thecharacter - approximately a third or a half of your psychological signature, a person is neither "just theSun" (called the sign) nor just "the first house" (the Ascendant). Thus, a particular planet's influence




may be significantly increased; a particular sign or house may contain a group of planets that will bringnuances and sometimes weaken the role of the Ascendant, of the Sun sign etc.

Lastly, there are two other criteria: accentuations (angular, succedent and cadent) which are aclassification of astrological houses and types of decanates that are occupied (each sign is divided intothree decanates of ten degrees each). They provide some additional informations.

These general character traits must not be taken literally; they are, somehow, preparing for the chartreading. They allow to understand the second part of the analysis, which is more detailed and precise. Itfocuses on every area of the personality and provides a synthesis of all the above-mentioned parametersaccording to sound hierarchical rules.

As explained in the introduction of your Psychological Portrait report, minor dominants are analysed atthe end of Annex 1, for purposes of clarity.

Your Planetary RepartitionsEach quadrant is a combination of the four hemispheres of your birth chart and relates to a charactertypology. The Southern hemisphere – the top of your chart, around the Midheaven – is associated withextraversion, action, and public life, whereas the Northern hemisphere prompts to introversion,reflexion, and private life. The Eastern hemisphere – the left part, around the Ascendant – is linked toyour ego and your willpower, whereas the Western hemisphere indicates how other people influence you,and how flexible you are when you make a decision.

Sigmund Freud, the diurnal South-western quadrant, consisting of the 7th, 8th and 9th houses, prevailsin your chart: this sector brings about a thirst for communication and sometimes a need to take risks inyour dealings with others. Relations are a factor of your evolution and your transformation, which youaccept serenely. Indeed, what matters to you is the movement and the energy that link you to others andthat make you gain more awareness. A kind of rebellion or a desire to get away from it all is rooted inyou.




Your Dominant Modes and Elements

Sigmund Freud, here are the graphs of your Elements and Modes, based on planets' position and anglesin the twelve signs:

Like the majority of Earth signs, Sigmund Freud, you are efficient, concrete and not too emotional. Whatmatters to you is what you see: you judge the tree by its fruits. Your ideas keep changing, wordsdisappear, but actions and their consequences are visible and remain. Express your sensitivity, even if itmeans revealing your vulnerability. Emotions, energy and communication must not be neglected;concrete action is meaningless if it is not justified by your heart, your intellect or your enthusiasm.

The predominance of Water signs indicates high sensitivity and elevation through feelings, SigmundFreud. Your heart and your emotions are your driving forces, and you can't do anything on Earth if youdon't feel a strong affective charge (as a matter of fact, the word "feeling" is essential in yourpsychology). You need to love in order to understand, and to feel in order to take action, which causes acertain vulnerability which you should fight against.

The twelve zodiacal signs are split up into three groups or modes, called quadruplicities, a learned wordmeaning only that these three groups include four signs. The Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable modes aremore or less represented in your natal chart, depending on planets' positions and importance, and onangles in the twelve signs.




The Fixed mode corresponds to a majority of elements in your chart, Sigmund Freud, and represents thedesire for security and durability: you are able to concretely appreciate a situation and its stability. Youdefinitely prefer to play the role of a loyal, obstinate and hard-working person, rather than to try new andrisky experiences - beware, however, not to confuse obstinacy with intransigence. You structure, cement,and strengthen everything you find on your way: it is your nature, although you are not especiallyinterested in swiftness: slow and steady...

Your Dominants: Planets, Signs and HousesThe issue of dominant planets has existed since the mists of time in astrology: how nice it would be if aperson could be described with a few words and one or several planets that would represent theircharacter, without having to analyse such elements as rulerships, angularities, houses, etc!

The ten planets - the Sun throughout Pluto - are a bit like ten characters in a role-play, each one has itsown personality, its own way of acting, its own strengths and weaknesses. They actually represent aclassification into ten distinct personalities, and astrologers have always tried to associate one or severaldominant planets to a natal chart as well as dominant signs and houses.

Indeed, it is quite the same situation with signs and houses. If planets symbolize characters, signsrepresent hues - the mental, emotional and physical structures of an individual. The sign in which aplanet is posited is like a character whose features are modified according to the place where he lives. Ina chart, there are usually one, two or three highlighted signs that allow to rapidly describe its owner.

Regarding astrological houses, the principle is even simpler: the twelve houses correspond to twelvefields of life, and planets tenanting any given house increase that house's importance and highlight allrelevant life departments: it may be marriage, work, friendship etc.

Sigmund Freud, here is the evaluation diagramme for your planets:




The three planets that are most highlighted in your chart are the Sun, Pluto and Neptune.

One of the dominant planets in your natal chart is the Sun. He symbolizes will, magnetism, sense ofhonour and dignity. You are a Solar being, and you often display charismatic and leadership qualities.Your warmth and your persuasive power lead you far away from pettiness. You enjoy thinking big and,consequently, you move forward according to what you decide.

Your Solarian weakness may be related to the sin of pride or to excessive authority. The frontier betweenpride and vanity is tenuous: be careful not to overstep it and to keep the nobleness of heart that is part ofyour charm.

With Pluto as a dominant planet in your chart, you are a magnetic and mighty predator, like the Scorpiosign ruled by this planet, who needs to exert pressure on others in order to "test" them. You are alwaysready to evolve, to risk destruction for reconstruction - including your own - to live more intensely whilstimposing your secret authority on things and on people you encounter.

You may come across as wicked, cruel or too authoritarian, but actually you only follow your instinct,you sound people out, and you like to exert your domination simply because your vital energy is toopowerful to remain inside. You are inclined to be passionate, with hidden motivations. You aresometimes misunderstood but one of your great Plutonian assets is to go successfully through each lifeordeal with ever growing strength.

With Neptune as one of your three dominant planets, you are a secretive and ambiguous person, oftenconfused or unclear about your own motivations! Indeed, you are endowed with unlimited imaginationand inspiration, as well as with an extreme sensibility that may turn you into a psychic or a clairvoyant.On the other hand, your impressionability is such that you may have difficulties in separating what isconcrete and solid from illusions or dreams.

A mystic, a visionary or a poet, you daydream, like any Neptunian, and you see what few people only cansee, all of this being shrouded in aesthetic mists when you are fired with enthusiasm.

A boundless, infinity-loving man like you is inevitably likely to be more vulnerable and easily hurt




because of your acute perception of events. In such cases, you are hit full in the face, and you may sinkinto gloomy daydreamings and dark melancholy.

That said, this mysterious aura definitely gives you an indefinable charm in the eyes of your close friendswho are often fascinated by your unique ability to feel and to see what ordinary people can never see!

In your natal chart, the three most important signs, delineated according to the above-mentionedcriteria, are, in decreasing order of strength, Taurus, Gemini and Scorpio. They are often prominentbecause your Ascendant and your Sun are posited there. However, it is not always the case: it may bebecause they are occupied by a cluster of planets, by a planet near an angle other than the Midheavenand the Ascendant, or because two or three planets are very active and form numerous aspects fromthese signs. Therefore, you partly take on the three signs' characteristics, which are somehowsuperimposed on your natal chart, and all the more so if any of the signs in question is highlighted.

With the Taurus sign so important in your chart, you are constructive, stable, and sensual. Good taste,sense of beauty, manners, and unfailing good sense - all these qualities contribute to your charm andseductive power. Furthermore, if some people criticize your slow pace and your stubbornness, yourightly reply that this is the price for your security, and that you like the way it is - slow and steady....

With Gemini as a dominant sign, your qualities include being lively, curious, mobile, clever, and flexible:you often make others dizzy, and you may come across as a dilettante - a bit inquisitive, shallow, andinsensitive because you may be too intellectualizing. However, your natural curiosity, a nice quality, andyour quick humour, allow you to demonstrate to everyone how much they may gain from your company,and that your apparent flightiness hides an appetite (particularly mental) for life, which itself conceals aterrific charm!

With Scorpio as a dominant sign, you are a strong and astute person, complicated and passionate,sometimes destructive and intolerant, but strong-willed, tough and daring, sometimes bordering onaggressive. So many qualities and dangers combined in one person! Obviously, this often results in anatural selection of people around you: those who stand up to you or admire you and those who can'tbear you anymore! But that is precisely what you want. You are what you are and you are not going totransform yourself just to please. You are too proud and you never dread confrontations, although yourway of fighting is secret, like your nature that, mysteriously enough, you are so reluctant to reveal even to




your close friends who will never understand you. That said... what a hellish charm you have!

Houses 7, 8 and 6 are the most tenanted ones in your natal chart. To compute their strength, planets andangles are weighed according to various astrological criteria such as swiftness, activity, angularity,rulership etc. From the analysis of the most tenanted Houses, the Astrologer deduces the fields ofactivity that are most relevant to you, be it because of what you are experiencing, or what you mayexperience in the future, or because of your deep inner motivations.

Your 7th house is one of your dominant houses: it symbolizes other people, marriages, associations,contracts, and partnerships. Your personal achievement and maybe your problems - depending on therest of your chart - are mainly influenced by your rapports with others, the area in which you tend tocommit yourself a lot. You appreciate communication, and you give importance to others' opinions.Success requires the support of others, which seems obvious and natural to you. Your marriage generallycontributes to your fulfilment.

Your 8th house is very highlighted: it is the most complex house of the Zodiac. It symbolizes above allpassion and transformation, which often go hand in hand. Indeed, you have a tendency to experienceeverything to the bitter end, and you overstep propriety borders because you want to understandeverything, even what is... forbidden. This house relates to complex spheres such as sexuality,possessions and dispossessions that don't depend on you (inheritances, donations, sudden financiallosses), death too - not yours in particular, so, don't worry! - and understanding of hidden or occultthings: here are the fields that affect you generally, because you are naturally interested in them orbecause life gets you involved in spite of yourself.

Your 6th house is quite emphasized and indicates interest in work and daily occupations that take up alot of your time: in analogy with Virgo, this house inclines towards perfectionism and training; somehow,you may be fulfilled through the process of being useful and investing your energy in your work. Anenvironment appealing to you may be involved - your colleagues, for example - or a passion for one ofthese daily occupations. Medical positions or pets may play a role in your life; or ancillary love affairstoo... These are a few possibilities indicated by an important 6th house.




Your Style, Behaviour, and PeculiaritiesWhat is commonly known as "sign" indicates the position of the Sun in the Zodiac. The Sun highlightsall the characteristics of the sign he tenants. According to astrology traditional rules, these characteristicsare all the more pure and exact when the Sun is strong in the sign, or when the sign is particularlyhighlighted within the chart. Here, we indicate the pure characteristics of the sign but you must bear inmind that they may only shed a light on a particular aspect of your personality. Indeed, the sole sign ofthe Sun, or of the Ascendant, can never describe an astrological chart because it depends on the degreeof strength of the said sign in your chart.

Another important point must be underlined. Contrary to the Ascendant, which clearly describes yourappearance, your vitality, your physical constitution, your spontaneous behaviour and the image youproject, your Sun sign describes your inner self, which you may not completely be aware of, and whichmay emerge gradually as you mature: it is about your inner personality that you reveal only to themembers of your entourage whom you trust. The Sun sign is likely to be the final form of yourpersonality, once it has evolved in line with the energies of the other parts of your chart, the beginning ofwhich is seen in the Ascendant, your external "bark".

The Ascendant is one of the major components of your natal chart. It is the zodiacal sign that rises in theEast at the very moment of your birth. To calculate it, it is therefore necessary to know your exact time ofbirth.

It provides with a wealth of information on your personality. It is one of the key features that allows theanalysis of several parts of you, such as your appearance, your character as it is initially perceived andyour immediate behaviour. It describes the external aspect of your personality which you always display,but it also describes your physical constitution in the long-term, in other words, your health.

Please be aware that, in spite of the importance of the Ascendant, the accuracy of its description dependson how strongly highlighted it is in your natal chart. We use the entire set of astrological rules to assessthe strength of the Ascendant. In most cases, the Ascendant is as revealing as your “sign”, i.e., the signwhere the Sun is posited at the time of birth.

You were born under the sign of Taurus and your Ascendant is in Scorpio

Before broaching the details of the meaning of your Sun and your Ascendant, as a preamble, we offer abrief generic interpretation of their combination in your chart:

These two signs occupy exactly opposite places in the Zodiac. Safe investment, concrete mind,simplicity, and down-to-earth shrewdness are Taurus' attributes, whereas devious means used to reachone's ends, and fondness for intense and paradoxical situations, are Scorpio' features. Your instinctivebehaviour, influenced by Scorpio, is a bit introverted and observant. You sometimes let relevant remarksburst forth, reach their target, and take people aback. Scorpio always wants to thoroughly understand thepeople or the topics by which it is intrigued because it deeply commits itself to its relationships and itscentres of interest. May be this is only a facade because, owing to your Taurus Sun, you want above all tofocus on everything closely related to you in a quiet way, at times bulimic, which is not as tortured asScorpio's




You were born with the Sun in Taurus

Peace, joy of life and sensuality are essential to you: You have a simple and quiet nature. You easily findhappiness because you are not competitive. In addition, your relaxed attitude and your common sensealways take you to places where you are happy, even though you are not the number one, even thoughyou do not move in haste. The important thing for you is to construct, with patience and persistence.These two qualities yield strong, steadfast, and sustainable efforts that can withstand any pitfalls.

You are gentle, with a slow thinking process, but once you have opted for an orientation, nothing, noone, can make you change your mind. You loathe changes in general, and once you have taken the fewmajor unavoidable decisions in the course of your life, you are on track!

As you are born under this sign, you are loyal, steadfast, strong, patient, enduring, persistent, attached,sensual, realistic, constructive, tenacious, with a strong need for security. But you may also be stubborn,rigid, possessive, materialistic, static and slow.

In love, Sir, more often than not, your passions are strong. It may take you some time to be moved, butonce you choice is made, it is a lasting one and you are particularly endearing and loyal. You are notinterested in infidelity or in having numerous partners.

Your love emerges slowly but it grows in depth, like a root which solidifies with time. You are not tooromantic because you are so practical and conventional… but your style and your sexiness compensatefor your lack of idealism. You tend to associate the concept of marriage with that of lifestyle or of thebenefits that come with it.

Your physical urges are pressing; you are sensual and pleasure takes an important place in your life. Youappreciate partners who cook like a cordon-bleu and who may cause a few gastronomic excesses, butyou readily accept them.

Your Ascendant is in Scorpio

Psychologically speaking, your nature is bilious, with aggressive impulses that lead you towards thetransformation of your entire being and, continuously, of the situation surrounding you. You seem to beconstantly struggling for your self-assertion. You cannot refrain from testing others with cutting remarks,not because you want to hurt them, but because you want to know them better through their reaction; foryou, life and the feeling of aliveness are experienced through rebellion and tension. You may bemanipulative and your aggressive attitude may equate with sly inquisition. You often remain silent,introverted and secretive, mulling over turbulent thoughts in the depths of your mind, leaving otherspuzzled by your somewhat peculiar behaviour.

As you are born under this sign, you are secretive, powerful, domineering, enduring, intuitive, assertive,charismatic, magnetic, wilful, daring, clear-sighted, passionate, creative, independent, vigorous,generous, loyal, hard-working, persevering, indomitable, possessive, shrewd, stubborn, ambitious,instinctive, tenacious, sexual, sexy, proud, intense and competitive. But you may also be aggressive,destructive, stubborn, anxious, tyrannical, perverse, sadistic, violent, self-centered, complex, critical,cruel, nasty, jealous, calculating, vulnerable and dissembling.

In love, Sir, you are very magnetic, with a discreet and indefinable charm that inevitably attracts the




persons you set your heart on. You detect their weaknesses so well that you can, at will, exert yourpowers and your manipulation tendencies over them. There are no negative consequences, as long asthings go well, because you are very sensual, charming, possessive and swaggering and you make happyall the people who look for this domineering aspect in their partner. However, when things start todeteriorate, your almost pathological jealousy and your capacity to harm when you feel threatened arethe causes of your partners' tears.

For you, passion means tension and tragedy. It is the price to be paid for sharing your sexuality loadedwith unlimited fantasies, male ardour, loyalty and generosity. You are excessive, but very endearing, andyour partner finds it very hard to leave you. It is preferable when things are fine between you.

The ruler of your chart is in Taurus

The ruler of the Ascendant, also referred to as the chart ruler, brings a few interesting nuances to themeanings provided by the Sun and the Ascendant. The sign in which the ruler of the Ascendant isposited fine-tunes the style of personality described by the Sun and the Ascendant. It may strengthen it ifthe sign is identical to either of them.

The ruler of your Ascendant is in the same sign as your Sun. This specific feature means that the Sun'scharacteristics in sign previously delineated are strengthened.

Aspects to your Ascendant

Several planets form an aspect with your Ascendant, Sigmund Freud. Therefore, in their specific way,they modify your behaviour and your personality, which do not take on the pure characteristics of yourScorpio Ascendant only, but which are a blend of its characteristics with those of the said aspects.

Pluto opposite Ascendant, orb -5° 41'

Pluto is in opposition to your Ascendant, Sigmund Freud. At the same time, he is in conjunction with theopposite angle, the Descendant, or DS, which represents other people, associations, and unions.Therefore, this is not strictly speaking a dissonance, but rather Pluto's qualities expressed within yourexternal contacts. Your lucidity and your strength work wonders, sometimes slightly too much, but theyoperate a natural selection in your relationships, and it is all for the best. It is true that your behaviourmay seem a bit domineering and secretive. Nevertheless... isn't it what you finally wish for? If it is at allpossible, you must try to display more softness, a value you know nothing about, but which can offer youa few assets, do not doubt it, not even for a second!

Sun opposite Ascendant, orb -6° 11'

The opposition of the Sun to your Ascendantcannot be really interpreted as a dissonance, SigmundFreud, but rather as a conjunction with your Descendant, or DS, the angle symbolising "other people".Thus, although your capacities for self-assertion, decision-making and shining may not entirely matchyour natural demeanour as an isolated individual, they can be wonderfully expressed through unions andassociations. Indeed, there is a discrepancy between the Self and your behaviour. It is obvious that thisaspect slightly tones down magnetism and strength, but at the same time, it puts you at the service ofother people in a way that neither alters your personal value, nor puts you in tricky situations.




Saturn sesqui-quadrate Ascendant, orb -2° 25'

This hard aspect between Saturn and your Ascendant may bring about a lack of self-confidence andsome inhibitions in your behaviour, in people's eyes, Sigmund Freud. Therefore, you must have trust inyourself and you must not be taken away into the spiral of doubts with its usual consequences, which areto hide away, or on the contrary and as a compensation, to overdo. Please, keep in mind that all this ishighly subjective, and that in most cases, if you fully understand it, you can gradually overcome thisslight restraint, and even turn it into strength. This is how you can keep your self-esteem and transformyour prudence into... an asset.

Moon bi-quintile Ascendant, orb 1° 27'

Your instinct seldom misleads you, as far as your external appearance is concerned, thanks to theMoon's soft aspect with your Ascendant, Sigmund Freud. You keep your emotions under rather goodcontrol, in instinctive and smooth ways.




Your SensitivitySigmund Freud, you tend to hold emotions at bay, as if they were dangerous. You observe with curiositywhat is occurring and you strive to objectively, logically and impersonally analyze facts in order to formcorrect judgments. Contacts and communication are very important to you, Sigmund Freud, you makeuse of, even over-use, words, with deep humour because it is an additional way for you to be detachedfrom your feelings. You may come across as superficial because you keep on talking without committingyourself. You need to be constantly on the move, to discover and to communicate in order to avoidboredom. When you are alone, you can spend lots of time with books to nourish your mind that is so avidfor knowledge. However, be careful not to miss feelings because you favour intellectual sensations...

Sigmund Freud, your emotions are intense, even violent sometimes. You feel things and react with somuch strength that it may torment you! On the other hand, you are extremely intuitive, warm,imaginative and you possess a kind of indefinable charm full of density and mystery. Your sharplydeveloped intuition endows you with a predisposition to clairvoyance.

Matters linked to death and inheritances, family investments etc., may play an important role in yourdestiny. Your mother often has a prominent role and may strongly influence your major life decisionsuntil you become an adult.

Moon square Neptune, orb -5° 11'

This Moon-Neptune dissonance wonderfully turns on the poetic soul, the exhilaration of feelings anddreams… and disturbs your practical life, as well as the management of contingencies. You do not lackinspiration but your reasons of living may be beyond your entourage’s understanding! Bohemian life ispleasant but it is probable that you experience muddled situations. Your aims are noble and yourintentions are very good. But you may not have the will to turn them into reality. It is important that youare wary of artificial paradises: escaping in the imaginary is not necessarily the best solution for problemsolving. You are in search of an inaccessible tranquillity and you tend to procrastinate chores.Nevertheless, facts remain present and you may see that non-interventionism can only increase yourdifficulties. You must put an end to this vicious let-go circle. This does not imply that you have toforsake your dreams or to repress your very rich sensitivity.

Sun semi-sextile Moon, orb -1° 39'

This aspect is a strong homogeneity factor: the image you project is in conformity with your real natureand does not upset your basic balance. This is probably the cause of your feeling at ease, your consistentbehaviour and your determination to remain your true self, regardless of external pressures and whateveris expected from you. At best, your will and your sensitivity are in harmony, your unconscious abilitiesare mobilized and controlled by your conscious will, with no imbalance. However, it is important toavoid the traps of self-satisfaction that would be harmful to your real exchanges and would lock you upin comfortable and rigid schemes. It is possible to remain natural and yet, not be content with the solewell being of those who never cheat themselves.

Your AffectivityIn your chart, the Sun is in Taurus and Venus, in Aries. Venus in Aries' ingenuous spontaneity opposesthe Taurean Sun's constructive scepticism. In the affective sphere, you respond to novelty and to first




meetings' emotions. There is an unquenchable thirst for experience and for the desire to preserve thenatural (or reckless) characteristic of a budding relationship. This spontaneous infatuation is opposed byTaurus' major concern: to take the time to live and to experience a fulfilment that never occurs instantly.The danger with this zodiacal duet lies in its contradictions; Aries' untimely crazes upset Taurus' wellbeing. Or, conversely, you may try to maintain at any cost (Sun in Taurus) a dying love. If the flames ofthe beginnings are ready to be roused, the Taurean will needs to guard against uncertain changes, whichis opposed to the Venusian thirst for emotions. Taurus slows down Aries. Equilibrium is achieved! Thebig advantage with this configuration is that it provides a clever and subtle balance between instinct ofself-preservation and desire to live intensely. When it is well integrated, this Aries-Taurus type allows tosmoothly fuel a relationship – but not without clashes and emotions – which lives on an extraordinaryvitality, over and over again.

Love at first sight, flash in the pan, amorous impulsiveness? All these are part of your way of loving or tofall in love, Sigmund Freud. Throughout your relationship, you maintain this kind of jerky and livelystyle, that may seem childish or naïve, but that is so generous and cheerful! You are undeniablypossessive and you are not concerned with your partner's opinion but, fortunately, you readily forgivebecause of your spontaneity and your authenticity. When your relationship is intense, everything is fine.There is no romanticism, no complications with you. You love with ardour and, except for a few crazesand opportunities for new pastures here and there, the only danger may be that boredom settles in. Inthat case, you leave without regret and you quickly forget what consumed you, not so long ago.

Sigmund Freud, the position of your Venus is quite particular in the sense that the nature of the planetdoes not blend easily with the house symbolism. Indeed, Venus deals with feelings and the absence oflimitations and control, whereas the 6th house deals with constraints, daily life and work, lifestyle,subjection and service rendered to others: as a consequence, feelings are associated with a framework orwith obligations, but this is not necessarily disturbing. More often than not, you meet your spouse oryour romantic partner in a setting related to work, an association, or a specific occupation (leisure orrather common work project, etc.). It seems that, for you, such contexts can more easily lift the inhibitionor the natural restriction produced by this house-planet combination. Besides, it is commonly believedthat amorous adventures with servants (i.e. with subordinate or “socially inferior” persons), or withcolleagues, are very much favoured by this configuration. In addition, if no adverse aspect affects Venusin the 6th house, your daily life is entertaining, you appreciate your work, you easily combine businesswith pleasure, experiencing nice encounters and discovering constantly renewed and enthralling centresof interest. Most of the time, you can count on the favour, the dedication and the esteem of yourcolleagues, particularly women. Therefore, it is in your interest to work. You are one of those rarepersons who approach work as a daily pleasure and never as a constraint because you probably knowhow to aim at what you like. Just beware not to fall in love too often in this context !

Venus sextile Saturn, orb 1° 21'

You favour deep feelings and a sincere affective life. In love, you are not content with shams or uncertaincompromises. Your couple’s relationship is based on mutual trust. You strive to build a lasting link, atrue love that complies with your aspirations and your heart of hearts. This harmonious Venus-Saturnaspect indicates wisdom. Inexpressible truth is preferred to appearances. A love affair is an adventure,above all. Discovering the other one, step by step… any relationship takes a fundamental dimensionright away. It is relevant to mention a little puff of romanticism and a passionate nature, although quitemodest and reserved. You do not commit yourself thoughtlessly! This is a major asset for long lastinglove. You are able to question your affective behaviour and to adjust to your significant other. You handle




crises quite well and you overcome all the difficulties inherent to amorous rapports.

Venus conjunction Pluto, orb 8° 14'

You exercise exceptional clear-sightedness in love. Your passions are subtle, deep, althoughdisconcerting and imperceptible to the outsider. You display no gullibility and you keep your distance.This is part of your charm. You detect what is really at stake in your couple’s relationship and in yoursentimental attitude. You drive the boat of your sensitivity without falling victim to mirages and affectivetraps. The only danger is that you may be too calculating. As you try to totally control love and toconstantly pull the strings, you may lose the ingenuity and innocence which are necessary to nurture arelationship. You give proofs of your love in a very personal way and you never hesitate to use paradoxesto preserve the authenticity of your relations. You can anticipate problems and prevent difficulties.

The Way You Take Action and Your SexualityNo one can say that you are particularly aggressive, Sigmund Freud! Actually, it takes a great deal foryou to become able to express your anger because you belong to the wavering type and you are not proneto risk-taking; you loathe violence and you would rather not intervene than start a conflict. Moderationand the happy medium in all things are your favourites. One of the only areas that makes you wage waris injustice, whether you are the one who is stricken or whether it is someone who is helpless. In thisparticular field, as in that of sexuality, you are not impulsive and you appreciate it very much when yourpartner shows the way, preferably with much serenity and gentleness. Actually, the form andcharacteristics of your sexuality depend on the rest of your personality.

It is in the area of friendship and collective life (common projects, associations, etc.) that you expressyour impulsivity, you warmth, and your capacity for action, Sigmund Freud.

You are cut-and-dried and your motto is "either succeed or die". In case of success, it is yourresponsibility to make the relationship last because you are not the submissive type and you hardlycompromise. You put a lot of passion in your friendly relationships. You are not interested in lukewarmor insipid acquaintances. Things must be moving, even though it may mean that the relationship is cutshort.

In any case, you enjoy participating actively within a community and, whenever possible, you take theleadership role, in your own way. As soon as you are more or less under the public eye, you becomeenterprising. When you are on your own, you do not feel the need to use your energy.

Mars opposite Jupiter, orb -3° 47'

You mobilize your energy as soon as there is an opportunity to turn your chances into concrete reality.You assert yourself in a spectacular and demonstrative manner as soon as an assembly gathers and thereis a chance for success. However, too much haste and zeal may harm your projects and spoil yourexpected outcome. The danger with this aspect is your overzealousness as you strive to achieve yourobjectives and your ambitions, forcing your way through events, whereas the situation requiresdiplomacy and patience. Too much fieriness may make you miss your target. With this planetaryconfiguration, it is important that you keep in mind that some circumstances need to be handled withprecision and clear-sightedness. Not all opportunities are necessarily good. It would be a pity to loseyour efficiency through excesses of opportunism or of enthusiasm.




Mars square Saturn, orb 5° 49'

Why should you take action? And how? The surrounding world is not to be trusted. Past events havetaught you to question simple situations and to intervene after thorough consideration. You arevulnerable to the traps of life, to confrontations and struggles. You may complicate your behaviour atwill, often missing your target due to your self-censoring. Your interventions may lack spontaneity. Youmust overcome your doubts and acquire the certainty that you are able to handle realities and facts. Ifyou make that effort, you can understand that there are many ways to make life simpler for yourself.

Mars inconjunction Pluto, orb -1° 04'

There is a limit to your respect for laws and norms! Morals, conventions, social marks are of little value toyou. With a touch of anarchy in the soul, you disregard conventions and you experience a sort of personalrevolution. You prefer unconventional actions to dull conformism. To express your differences, you use awide scope of possibilities that ranges from brewing revolt to ideological renunciation. Sometimes, youdismiss concrete facts that are nevertheless unavoidable. Hence, you undergo delusions and backlashes.You may also act rashly, to the detriment of your ideals. It is important that you control your actions andthat you balance the respect for constraints with your personal demands and inner motivations.

Sun sesqui-quadrate Mars, orb 2° 02'

This aspect shows impulsivity, a fiery character and sensitivity all on edge. The excess of strength andenergy may jeopardize your life balance and cause impulsive and unconsidered actions. Your ideals arenot always in line with your deeds. You are certainly reactive and you stand for yourself heroically. Butyour untimely fits of anger may worsen existing tensions and bring about incontrollable situations. Factscontradict your aspirations. When this configuration is properly reined in, it becomes an inexhaustiblesource of passion and energy.

Mars sesqui-quadrate Uranus, orb -2° 13'

This Uranus-Mars dissonance indicates frequent commotions. Your actions may be foolhardy andthoughtless. You may not control your temper and you let impulsiveness take over logics. This bringsabout drastic, whimsical or untimely decisions. There is no monotony in your life: thunders andtyrannical behaviour are on the agenda! Your fighting spirit certainly allows you to cope with lifehardships. Nevertheless, beware of damages. As one wants to act as a hero, one can make mistakes.Because forces are overestimated or because inflexibility forbids compromise solutions. Therefore, it isimportant to balance your decisions and to avoid solutions that are as final as inappropriate.

Your Intellect and Your Communication StyleYour mind is calm and balanced; even though you assimilate slowly, your memory is remarkable. Yourjudgment is based on reflection and reason and draws on past experiences. Sigmund Freud, you are agood adviser, a reliable person whom people can confide in discreetly. You are full of good sense,cautious, methodical and disciplined and you are able to carry many good projects to a successfulconclusion. You are very opinionated and determined in your actions. However, your tendency forintolerance and prejudices may offend your entourage. They wish that you exercised more flexibilityinstead of systematically refusing what cannot be immediately checked. You usually express yourselfwith a lot of charm and this is what allows you to get people to better accept your well-established habits.




Communication is your forte, Sigmund Freud: you will use your entire intelligence efficiently in order toachieve agreements, compromises, or contracts. You are a born negotiator, or at least, that's what you tryto be because you are not mentally self-centred and your thoughts are more aimed at others rather thanat yourself.

With this thinking process, you may be dependent on others and somehow, too adaptable... Flexible,chatty, and outgoing when you communicate, you lose in charisma and in convincing power what yougain in quick, efficient, but sometimes light, compromise. Matters related to marriage are sometimesdealt with thoughtlessly but cleverly.

Mercury sextile Jupiter, orb -1° 46'

You display strong abilities for adaptation, social insertion and various learning capacities. You arecredited with an acute sense of relations, probably because you can speak other people’s language. Youeasily assimilate the most varied settings and your qualities are acknowledged. Your attitude and thewords you use have the power to seduce and to convince your entourage. Diplomacy is an asset in yourgame. You are fit for negotiation and you seek compromise solutions. The only danger may be thatsometimes, you too readily accept agreements that turn out to be less positive than foreseen, after awhile. This is the other side of the coin for your exceptional flexibility and your unquestionable tact.

Mercury conjunction Uranus, orb 7° 12'

Your state of mind is innovative and turns the surrounding world into a constantly moving field ofexperiences. You ask relevant questions … and you answer them. Although you are flexible when youought to, your principles and your beliefs are unwavering. It seems difficult to catch you off your guard.You multiply observations, relationships, contacts and you never lose face: actually, your mobility hidesan unshakable determination and a deep lucidity. In a split second, you are able to catch the usefulinformation or the enriching relationship. The original and fanciful steps you take exclude monotony.Your approach to life is amazing!

Mercury trine Mars, orb 5° 34'

The harmonic Mercury-Mars aspect is the signature of a quick wit and an energetic character. You takedecisions rapidly and you implement them straight away. You never accept stiff situations. You need todesign, to take action, to fight to express your acute sense of relation: the world, the people, everything isof concern to you… You need to be involved in relationships and in dialogues. Your sharp retorts earnyou a reputation of straightforwardness. On the relations’ area, your quick wit and your mobility aregreatly appreciated. You find the allies and partners you need at the right time. An art of resourcefulnessthat is precious…

Mercury semi-sextile Saturn, orb -0° 14'

Your vision of the world is rigorous and objective. An exemplary logic characterizes your mental attitudeand your human relations. Your discerning faculties overlook no detail. You need to know the whys ofyour life and to explore the backstage of your surrounding world. The deepness of your relationsdismisses superficial connections. It may be the reason why your interest is aroused when you are intouch with elements that are alien to your mode of functioning. You have the soul of a researcher,regardless of the form that your investigations may take. It may be an exacerbated curiosity for humantopics or a will to understand relationship stakes. It may also be a hobby or a course of study thatintroduces you to a riddle. It does not matter! Life is a perpetual quest for the unknown. Your criticalmind is highly developed and you take commonplaces for granted only after thorough consideration.




Your Goals, Motivations, Career, and DestinyYour Sun is posited in the 7th House

To assert yourself, Sigmund Freud, you cannot rest until you multiply your contacts. Although you donot consciously understand your ambition early in life, you need to shine through your relationships. It may take the form of a tendency to rapidly get involved in associations, groups or clubs; you feel fineas soon as people are around you because your communication skills are always highlighted andappreciated; your style is not what matters most because your main concern is to be noticed as soon asyou are in contact with the world.

You are meant for marriage, the ultimate form of association. Usually, your destiny is dependent on yourmarriage, either directly through its consequences on your career and your lifestyle, or indirectly and, inthe long run, through the supports and help you may gain, particularly owing to your honesty and yourassertive skills. Marriage constitutes the apotheosis of your ambitions. As you unconsciously understandit, your entire will strives to achieve this aim since your adolescence. You have the required flexibility andtalent to turn the life of your couple into daily harmony.

This area is only one of the facets of the fields where you positively exercise your will but... you do sowith so much strength and talent!

With this configuration, everything seems all roses. However, it is not as simple and easy as it may look:your will to shine through others and your almost frantic search for contact may hide a fear of solitudeand a lack of self-confidence. Why would you constantly seek confirmation of your own worth into otherpeople's eyes if it were not to dispel your own doubts?

You are easily influenced and your apprehension about loneliness and not being up to it may causetroubles and out-of-proportion reactions; struggles, conflicts of authority or even lawsuits may beharmful. You often get over them because your determination to show that you are at your best isstronger than anything else.

Your challenge is to manage to please others and to conceal your domineering and too assertive side:however, do not make too much effort because, in all cases, you will be equally appreciated. Rememberthat it's better to let well alone!

The ruler of your chart is in the 6th House

The ruler of the Ascendant, also referred to as the chart ruler as explained in a previous chapter, is alsoposited in one of the twelve Houses of the chart. Just like the Sun in his House, the ruler of theAscendant provides certain abilities, or it makes you appreciate more keenly certain areas of life.

The ruler of your chart is in the 6th House, Sigmund Freud. This position gives you the desire to behelpful, and turns you into a perfectionist concerned with details and with work well done. Domesticroutine and exchanges with colleagues - if you are working - is an important element of your fulfilment.You may be interested in health matters.




Aspects influencing your ambitions

Regarding your destiny or your career, the following aspects of your natal chart allow to fine-tune whathas just been said above:

Sun conjunction Uranus, orb 4° 15'

This aspect reinforces the determination as well as the will to further your original, sometimesrevolutionary, ideas and designs. Your capacity of innovation is important for your image. You have thesoul of a leader. You display a forceful and synthesizing mind. You may tend to oversimplify or toschematize situations. In most cases, you know where you are heading to and how to reach your goals.Your determination is two-edged… not everybody will appreciate your contrasted standpoints. It is yesor no, black or white! This planetary configuration indicates certainties. When it comes to actingaccording to your inner motivations and to respecting your models, you can show an unusual willpowerand sweep aside all obstacles lying on your path.

Jupiter square Saturn, orb -2° 01'

Jupiter and Saturn form a dissonance in your natal chart. It is far from being horrendous. This planetaryconfiguration, which is deemed somewhere between the individual and collective characteristics, onlyindicates that your social integration may be delayed, or may encounter a few difficulties. Such slightdelays or setbacks often have their origins in your own behaviour. Indeed, since Jupiter represents lawsand public life, and Saturn, seriousness and perseverance, in may instances, you may become impatient,or even rebellious to any form of authority or legal constraints, to the extent that you cross the whiteline... When you face such circumstances, you must resign yourself to listening to reason and accept towait for your turn, lest... your achievements are even more slowed down by your own haste.

Venus trine Midheaven, orb -2° 36'

In your natal chart, Sigmund Freud, sweet Venus is in soft aspect with your Midheaven. It means thatyour natural charm and the way you express your feelings are appreciated in society. Usually, thisconfiguration speeds up the achievement of your professional goals, or in any case, of a certain socialstatus. A female - or females - may prove helpful for your career or your destiny.

Uranus square Midheaven, orb 3'

Uranus is in hard aspect with your Midheaven, Sigmund Freud. There is definitely nothing serious toworry about. There may be a lack of perseverance in the efforts you put in order to move forward in yourcareer or your social destiny. When unexpected hurdles crop up, more than anyone else, you must acceptthe unavoidable changes without losing sight of your aims, and above all, without getting disheartened.More than anyone, you must learn to accept the values of time and duration, if you are to reap theirfruits.

Mercury square Midheaven, orb -4° 11'

You are not pleased with the way you intellectually approach your professional goals, or simply yourdestiny. Because of this mild dissonance between Mercury and your Midheaven, in some circumstances,your communication style is tainted with a few hesitations or clumsinesses. There is nothing serious toworry about, and it is up to you to gradually build self-confidence through the study and mastering ofyour projects.




Sun sextile Neptune, orb -3° 31'

This harmonious Sun-Neptune aspect indicates a highly developed intuition and clear-sightedness andsometimes, a sixth sense. Mental images or information drawn from the unconsciousness impress yourmind. What was only a muddled feeling turns into certainty and deep conviction. You do not necessarilyneed to justify your attitudes: you take a decision because you feel that you have to do so, although youmay not control the underlying logics. The danger is that you may follow fanciful or adventurous roads.Beliefs you cannot explain may prove wrong or over-optimistic. However, your intuition is seldommisleading. One last comment: there is often a keen curiosity for the « bizarre » and the paranormal withthis planetary aspect.

Jupiter bi-quintile Midheaven, orb 0° 01'

Jupiter is in soft aspect with your Midheaven, Sigmund Freud. It means that you are often lucky, or thatyou receive support in your career or your social destiny. You trust your abilities to overcome obstaclescoming up in your way, and you respect authority and laws. So, thanks to this configuration, you makeyour way in the world with the feeling that you move forward rather quickly, as compared to averagepeople.

Saturn sextile Midheaven, orb -3° 57'

Thanks to this soft aspect between Saturn and your Midheaven, your long-term efforts and yourperseverance are rewarded, and you gradually climb up the stairs of success. Time is your ally as far asyour career and social destiny are concerned. Carry on the good work, and rest assured that yourseriousness and your obstinacy are appreciated. They are instrumental in your success, especially duringthe second part of your life.

Sun square Midheaven, orb 7° 16'

What you really want to do, or the way you consider everything, may be in contradiction with yourprofessional goals, Sigmund Freud. You may experience conflicts of authority, or a few hesitations overhow to manage your career. In any case, you must display flexibility and water down your wine if youwant to remain on the right track and achieve professional success. It is the only solution to thisdiscrepancy between the Sun and your Midheaven.

Sun semi-square Jupiter, orb 1° 45'

This Sun-Jupiter aspect indicates a strong desire for social and professional integration but it may causea few difficulties of expression in that regard, owing to excesses or immoderation. There may bediscrepancies between your objectives and the means implemented to achieve them. The danger of thisconfiguration may be that you forsake an essential part of yourself for some ambitious but out ofproportion plan. Too many efforts of adaptation and an excess of opportunism may make you miss thetarget. It is important that you remain true to your values and that you do not seek, at any cost, to adjustyour attitudes to the situation. However, do not fall into the opposite trap: a need for the absolute thatforbids compromises, although they are so necessary. You must reconcile idealism with the demands ofthe moment, the respect for principles with the sense of timeliness. When this configuration is not wellintegrated, things get out of hand. Extravagances are glaring. They may translate into an exuberant,overly demonstrative disposition. Personal ambition turns into pride, and joviality becomesimmoderation. Outbursts of anger are frequent. However, in a reserved and cautious context, thisconfiguration reveals its positive nature.




Your Assets and Your Part of JovialitySigmund Freud, your sensitivity, your emotions, and your artistic capacities, particularly regarding musicand rhythm, are strongly increased with this position of the planet of Greater Fortune in this borderlesssign. It endows you with an artistic and endearing side as well as with flexible and mobile ways toconsider your relationships and your environment. Your dreamy state of mind and your sensitivity toother people's sufferings may get involved with compassion in great humanitarian causes.

For you, Sigmund Freud, nature's present includes a lot of great satisfaction in the area of leisure,entertainment, creation and love. Anything with a hint of pleasure is favoured. A marvellous worldexempt from constraint and obligation illuminates your life. According to the Tradition, your luck alsoapplies to your communication with children and your descendants are harmonious and successful.

The planet Jupiter symbolizes expansion, broadness and generosity. Jupiter is associated with thefunctions of synthesis, enthusiasm and optimism. In your natal chart, his house position is moreimportant than his sign position because, like Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, he is a slow planet.Many people born in the same period have Jupiter in the same sign. This is the reason why the signoccupied here is less meaningful than when it is occupied by the so-called fast planets, i.e. the Sun, theMoon, Mercury, Venus and Mars. Therefore, some caution is to be exercised as you read what follows.

Jupiter in Pisces increases your natural generosity and your dedication capacity. Your empathy is strongand you are inclined to offer your strength and your enthusiasm to the most deprived people and to giveunlimited assistance to others. Your imagination is powerful and your feelings may flare up easily: withyour sensitivity on the alert and your unbridled affectivity, you belong to the category of people whointuitively detect other people’s sufferings and most valuable qualities of the heart, as if you were ahuman radar.

Your Serious SideYour liveliness and your superficiality are slowly transformed into secondarity, profundity of reflection,and interest for knowledge, contacts and logic.

Sooner or later, death and its environment – inheritances, successions, investments, sorrows, ordetachment – are areas you will have to deal with, not necessarily in a negative way, Sigmund Freud.Besides, the Tradition believes that this configuration gives longevity, if other aspects do not stronglystate otherwise.

In the affective and sexual spheres, you do not easily grant your confidence, and you need to work onyour inhibitions so as to overcome your own fears. Provided you display a strong will, Saturn, as theplanet of time, allows you to consider these areas with grace. They become sources of pleasure and joy,under the condition that... you put aside your serious side, precisely. This is likely to occur after your firstexperiences have taken place.

The planet Saturn symbolizes contraction, effort, time, limitation and concentration. Saturn eliminatesanything that is not authentic, sooner or later. It is impossible to cheat him as he gives an irresistibledesire to form a coherent whole with oneself, in responsible and wise ways. He is the great purifier. Herepresents our limitations but also our truth. In your natal chart, the house position where Saturn is




posited is more important than his sign position because, like Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, he isa slow planet. Many people born in the same period have Saturn in the same sign. This is the reason whythe sign occupied here is less meaningful than when it is occupied by the so-called fast planets, i.e. theSun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars. Therefore, some caution is to be exercised as you read whatfollows.

Saturn in Gemini decreases your lightness, your frivolousness and your heedless. You become morethoughtful, more concentrate and you learn to deeply funnel your ideals; your practical sense isincreased, your concern for punctuality and your thirst for precision are reinforced.

A Few Special PointsYour Uniqueness and Your Utopias

Your anticonformism regarding relationships prompts you to meet with very original people, andsometimes quite special ones. You may take the initiative to brutally and unexpectedly break up withpersons whom you find too ordinary or too conventional.

Your thirst for freedom creates a very strong individual approach in your way of communicating and ofhandling relationships; you may distrust associations or marriage because, as soon as you start to feelimprisoned or not free enough, you run away without warning!

Actually, you are very demanding, and you are not aware that, most of the times, this is the very cause ofyour behavioural reversals. The solution is to move around with unusual people, it’s as simple as that!Cohabitation is often advisable, except if your freedom and your curiosity are already satisfied on a dailybasis.

Your Inspiration and Your Illusions

Your vision of your childhood home, or of your father, is quite vague, but your emotions in these areasare intense. There is a vital need for you to feel comfortable at home because, otherwise, you tend toimagine horrors that exist only in your mind!

You may encounter complications, lack of understanding, or mystery regarding your origins or your realestate. In any case, it is hard for you to discern when you are "at home" and, even when all is well, youtend to idealize your household.

Your Passion and Your Authority

Your relationships with your subordinates and your colleagues are marked with passion and may createdomineering/dominated connections conducive to conflicts, unless you use your authority to stabilizethe situation.

You do not accept your superiors' authority, and you continuously strive to reverse your relationshipswith them in order to eventually take the domineering role that better fits your nature.




In a few rare instances, severe health conditions may strike you down, but in principle, you overcomethem like the phoenix that is reborn from its ashes.

Your Isolated PlanetsIn general, the ten planets of the chart are connected to other planets by major or minor astrologicalaspects. It is owing to those ties that the planets' energies can manifest in the chart owner's personalityand play out within safeguards according to a specific tonality.

It seldom happens that in a natal chart, a planet is totally disconnected from the nine other planets.

Astrologers have observed that when such a case occurs, the person feels the energy of the unaspectedplanet in quite a singular way, very jerky and powerful at the same time. Thus, for instance, the famedastrologer Jean-Baptiste Morin de Villefranche wrote that "an unaspected planet heralds that somethingstrange or extraordinary will take place regarding the meanings of the house in which the said planet isposited" (source : l'astrologie selon Morin).

Rules for detecting an unaspected planet: among all the testimonies that we have reviewed to this day,based on our experience, we tend to agree with American astrologer Janis Huntley who accepts sevenaspects, which involve the zodiacal twelve sections of 30 degrees. The aspects to be considered are theconjunction (0 degree, cooperation or tension), the semi-sextile (30 degrees), the sextile and the trine (60and 120 degrees respectively, aspects of cooperation), the square and the opposition (90 and 180 degreesrespectively, tensed aspects), and the quincunx (150 degrees, slightly tensed). In this detection, thechart's angles are not taken into account.

In any case, it is important to remember that an isolated planet clearly expresses its influence when it is apersonal planet. Thus, when the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars is isolated, it is certain that theeffects described by Jean-Baptiste Morin de Villefranche will become manifest. As for Jupiter, Saturn,Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, one must be cautious because the volume of cases documented is not yetlarge enough.

Your chart has no isolated planet, and this particular case does not apply to you.




Annex 1: Your Minor DominantsThe five following dominants are less significant than those described at the beginning of your report.They may not be strongly felt. In some cases, they add several minor details to the analysis of yourcharacter, but they are rather for curiosity purposes. It is not necessary to take them into account whenyou first read your portrait.

Your Planetary Repartitions: Northern, Southern, Eastern and Western Hemispheres

The axis linking the 1st house's cuspide (the Ascendant) to the 7th house's cuspide - the Descendant -divides the zodiac into two bowls, a superior bowl, in the South, and an inferior bowl in the North.Quoting an expression by the famous American astrologer Rudhyar, the Southern part and the Northernpart correspond to two functions: "being" and "doing". Other concepts are also associated with thisNorth and South distribution, such as introversion - Northern hemisphere - and extraversion - Southernhemisphere - being or appearances, inner life or external life, reflection or action, dreaming one's life orliving one's dreams, the abstract or the concrete, backstage or limelight.

This is not about determination but about personal inclination: thus, some people will be thrown intopublic life despite a prominent Northern hemisphere. If this happens, however, it will not be due to theirwill, their taste or their deep nature. Conversely, a prominent Southern hemisphere will not bring about afamous destiny to its owner, even if he tends to turn the spotlight on himself, or if he looks for a moreactive life. It is a matter of deep nature and natural inclination. Of course, none of the typologies is"superior" to another.

In your birth chart, Sigmund Freud, the ten main planets are distributed as follows:

Sigmund Freud, the predominance of planets in the Southern hemisphere prompts you to take action, todraw attention on yourself, and to make your actions and what you have in mind visible to everyone. Sometimes, without giving a single thought to, and to the detriment of, a richer inner life and a deeperand wiser reflection. Action and communication are inevitable in your opinion, and you tend to thinkthat the only thing that matters is what is seen! This is not always true, and it is up to you to progressthrough the development of inner qualities such as meditation, solitude and imagination so as to becomestronger.




The birth chart is divided into two other parts, Eastern and Western, by the axis linking the Midheavento the Imum Coeli.

The Eastern part, on the Ascendant side, shows the person's ego, will, magnetism, and vitality, whereasthe Western part, on the Descendant side, symbolizes other people, communication, relationships andtheir influence, as well as flexibility and adaptability.

Sigmund Freud, here is the planetary repartition in your Eastern and your Western hemispheres:

The predominance of planets in the Western hemisphere of your chart means that you are quite flexible,capable of empathy, convivial and communicative. An excellent factor for many professional activities orfor your social or sentimental life for example.

A definite asset... provided that you are not at the centre of the decisions you must take in your life: youmay be tempted to listen to the last person who spoke, and your flexibility won't always get you out ofthe tight spot. You are therefore advised to learn to decide alone and to cope with the consequences ofyour actions with courage and without regrets. This attitude will allow you to combine flexibility andaction, adaptability and absence of hesitation.

Your Yin and Yang Polarity

The twelve signs are divided into two polarities, called active or passive, or sometimes masculine andfeminine, positive and negative, Yang and Yin. This classification corresponds to two quite distincttonalities, the first one bringing extraversion, action, self-confidence and dynamism, the second one,introversion, reactivity, reflection and caution. None is superior to the other, each group has its ownassets and shortcomings. Odd signs - Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius - belong to thefirst group, whereas even signs - Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces - belong to thesecond group.




According to the disposition and qualities of your planets and angles, you are rather influenced by Yinenergy, the passive polarity, Sigmund Freud: you are quite introverted, imaginative and sometimesdiscreet, but you are a deep and wise person who is not content with just noisy and flashy things. Attimes, you doubt but you think that those who don't are a bit... thoughtless. Allow yourself to take morelaid-back attitudes and put your reserve aside, because good equilibrium is always healthier.

Your Houses' Accentuations

Houses are split up into three groups: angular, succedent and cadent.

The first ones are the most important ones, the most "noticeable" and energetic houses. They are the1st, 4th, 7th and 10th houses. Their cuspides correspond to four famous angles: Ascendant for the 1sthouse, Imum Coeli for the 4th house, Descendant, opposite the Ascendant, for the 7th house andMidheaven for the 10th house, opposite the Imum Coeli.

Planets are evaluated according to a whole set of criteria that includes comprehensive Western astrologyrules. At their turn, planets emphasize specific types of houses, signs, repartitions etc., as previouslyexplained.




Your angular houses, namely, the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th houses, are very emphasized in your chart,Sigmund Freud: according to the Tradition, they are the strongest and most dynamic houses. Should therest of your chart concur, angular houses suggest that you are an enterprising, energetic and assertiveman. Indeed, angular houses are said to generate impulsions and to give a powerful and domineeringpersonality.

Unusual fates are often linked to a predominance of angular houses, but this is only a partial indication...

Your Esoteric Decanates

Each sign contains 30 degrees and can be divided into three equal parts: the decanates. The Traditionindicates that specific meanings can be associated to each of the three decanates. Their sphere of activityis usually limited to the Sun sign, however, it is even more interesting to observe the distribution of allthe planets in the chart to get an idea of the respective importance of the three decanates, which cancomplement the description of the personality.

These meanings must be considered with the greatest caution. Indeed, they are minor characteristicsthat can only underline other outstanding traits of character.

Traditionally, the first decanate highlights the characteristics of the sign where a planet is located. Thetwo other decanates correspond to sub-dominant planets, depending on the nature of each sign. Thissystem leads to a multiplication of meanings and it is impossible to have a clear understanding: here, weprefer to give only the meaning of one decanate in comparison with the other two, within the birth chartas a whole. Again, the greatest caution is needed with regard to this minor indication as it is not alwaysreliable: it is not essential that you read these texts in the beginning. You can get back to them later on,once you have read more important interpretations

The third decanate, which means the part between 20° and 30° of any zodiacal sign, prevails in your natalchart, Sigmund Freud. It contains the degrees of spirituality, traditionally more delicate to deal with,since they incline towards evolution and therefore, destabilizations. Individuals with an emphasised thirddecanate may have deeper sensitivity than most people, which often brings ordeals but also spiritualrewards.




Annex 2: Karmic Study

The karmic theme is a good complement to the psychological portrait, or natal chart. This analysis isbased on the positions of the Lunar Nodes, the Black Moon and the Part of Fortune: they are also calledfictitious points and describe the spiritual purpose of your destiny. Because there is in all of us anexperience and a quest, our life is an evolutionary journey... provided that we head towards the rightdirection, of course! Indian astrologers highly prize the Nodes axis (North Node and South Node). It isthe Ariadne's thread that we are invited to follow. The Black Moon indicates the sector where we aremost likely to transform or to transcend, whereas the Part of Fortune points out the area where we caneasily express our specificity.

The Lunar Nodes: a spiritual path

Lunar Nodes have their roots in the Indian tradition and they are based on a simple concept: each of ushave a mission of their own, here on earth, a destiny, a course. According to the Indian philosophy, life isa school: the nodal axis describes our past experiences (South Node, our karma, our spiritual inheritanceor our previous lives), and our aims on earth (North Node, our Dharma, the purpose of our currentincarnation). This is the reason why the study of the lunar nodes is called "Karmic astrology". Here, weshall not step into hypothetical past lives. Wherever our current trends may come from, all that reallymatters is that we become aware of the purpose of our life, its finality and our dharma. We are likely tounderstand our life purpose around the age of 37, when the Lunar Nodes return to their natal position.

You have obvious sociability qualities. You know better than others how to adjust to a new context andto copy your entourage's behaviour exactly. You do not dissociate yourself from groups or cells (social,family), on the contrary, you frequently adopt flexible attitudes that meet other people's expectations.This may translate into a lack of fighting spirit. You may not dare to go against prevailing fashions andcurrents. Because you dread unknown situations, you may miss the opportunity to innovate. It isimportant that you learn to go it alone and to get rid of scruples that hamper your doings: life encouragesyou to leave aside other people's opinions and, as time goes by, to find your autonomy of thought andaction. While keeping your sociable nature, it is important that you develop a sense of individualinitiative. In many situations, one can only rely on oneself. In such cases, you have the possibility toachieve the freedom many people dream of, without really giving themselves the means to implement it.Do not allow your entourage to dictate your way of life, over and over again. However, do not fall into theopposite excess: the frenzied individualism of those who value nothing except their own interest! Yourlife's purpose may be to master your destiny.

A part of you is bohemian: you may shirk realities (at least during the first years of adulthood) and youkeep your distance from the constraints of this world! However, life reminds you of them... As years goby, you show more pragmatism. Of course, you must keep your assets: a sharp intuition of people andthings, a profitable detachment that allows you to cope with daily petty things. But you must also controlthe vagaries of life that may fall into the bad side of a "bohemian life" if you are not careful. Theconsequences may be setbacks and delusions that will cease only when you become aware of realities. Asyou progress, you may be a therapist who heals the body (a medical occupation)... or the soul becauseyou are altruistic and you know how to listen.

Lilith or the Dark Moon

The Black Moon is the spark of refusal and distance that is dormant in all of us. Depending on the signwhere she is found in your chart, she highlights the desire to transform and to sublimate a part of your




life. The Black Moon is unfathomable and mysterious. She gives a different dimension to the sector shetouches. Her manifestations are subtle; nonetheless, she is powerful, implacable, demanding to theextreme... The Black Moon is also called Lilith. She is the inner flame of your heroism andinsubordination.

You decidedly assert yourself as a person made of desires, love and the absolute. If this configuration isnot well controlled enough, your thirst for timeless relationships may hamper simple, natural andobvious affairs. You may reject persons whose attitudes do not perfectly live up to your expectations.However, as you keep on looking for your muse, it is very likely that you will find the person to whomfate has relentlessly tied you.

It is in the humanitarian field that rebellion is best expressed. Your dream is to become the spearhead fora different project of society, the Quixote of altruism. Each individual must be independent, really free tothink and to act. Any hindrance to free will makes you indignant! The danger is that you may not tolerateany external constraint. This is probably the price to be paid for a freedom of thought that constitutes thecore of your progression.

The Part of Fortune in House

The Part of Fortune is a very ancient fictitious point that depends on the lunar phase at the time of birth.The astrological house tenanted is particularly strengthened. In your chart, the Part of Fortune is in the2nd house: acquisition and possession are the keywords for the axis of your activities. You work with aview to grow rich (on the material or on the spiritual plane), to accumulate goods and experiences. Asyou want to have a fulfilling life, you focus your energy on social projects and you take a fair share of theworldly cake. With your persistence, you will dedicate an unusual energy to your goals.

Retrograde Planets

The karmic tradition insists on the issues related to the so-called retrograde planets. They are consideredto be the inheritance of a past that was not well experienced, a sort of unfinished business. Theinterpretations of the retrogradation may seem negative or excessive to you. However, you may relate toa scenario that you have often and repeatedly experienced... as if you underwent several setbacks that allhave the same cause. Until the day you become aware of it and you can free yourself from it! Through theslow integration of these planetary energies, you will be able to overcome your difficulties and to payyour karmic debt. Actually, each retrograde planet highlights an opportunity for evolution. Nothing canbe achieved without the will to grow spiritually and to defeat your own demons.

Mars is retrograding in your chart: according to the Tradition, this suggests karma of aggressiveness.What does it exactly mean? You may not control your energy, at least during the first part of life. In yourinteractions with the world, you may not dare to give your reactions free rein. During your childhood, asfor all bullied persons, your spontaneousness was smothered. You tend to internalize, even to repressyour desires. You chew things over and you fuel your resentments without taking any action... until theyexplode! Then, your aggressiveness suddenly blows up in an excessive and out—of-proportion way. Initself, martial energy is positive: it allows coping with any given situation. However, the fighting spirit isa virtue only when impulses remain under control. You must endeavour to balance your quarrelsometendencies and to respond to provocations without losing your self-control. Do you lack audacity? In thatcase, force your natural self, be more dynamic, otherwise you may undergo the same harmful outburstsagain. It is the only way for you to feel better in your body and in the world!




N.B: modern astrology attaches less and less importance to the principles of retrograding planets.




Conclusion

A few remarks are needed here in order to allow you to fully take advantage of your astrological portrait:firstly, do not forget that a birth chart is also a photograph of the sky at birth and a structure that not onlycontains the personality's characteristics, but also its potential evolution.

We all know that, in real life, people begin to know themselves when they are in their forties, or evenlater. Likewise, several traits of character in a portrait may seem surprising: in most cases, it means thatsuch features are not yet developed.

Some personalities reveal themselves late in life, whereas others are more precocious. It must beremembered that psychological structures are in a state of continuous evolution because they areinfluenced by unfolding events and gradual maturity. We can never underline strongly enough the"mobile" nature of the personality, throughout a lifetime.

On the other hand, it is difficult to discriminate what is "already present" at this moment in your lifewhen you are reading your chart's interpretation, from what will appear later in the logic of yourevolution: you must sort out all the pieces of information provided and, in most cases, you will see thatyour astrological portrait is helpful for your endeavours to know yourself better.

Finally, several readings of an astrological portrait are usually necessary in order to absorb all its differentmeanings and to evaluate the relevance of each character trait.

In any case, better self-knowledge obviously contributes to faster personal blossoming, and it isundoubtedly one of astrology's major roles: contributing to know oneself better, in order to improvemore rapidly, to deal with one's weaknesses and to avoid its drawbacks, and to take advantage of one'sassets as efficiently as possible.
