Astrology is as old as measured time. Although there are many different approaches to astrology, allastrologers appear united in the idea that there is a connection between the heavens and the Earth -- theyshare one common space. For centuries there has been a misunderstanding concerning the nature ofastrology to the effect that the heavens somehow "influence" events here on Earth. This theory of celestialinfluence has penetrated into the modern world until today it is the main concept or idea of astrologysupported by the public -- the lay astrological audience.Professional astrologers do not hold with theories of celestial influence. Instead, the modern astrologerconceives of the heavens and Earth as united, interpenetrating, and sharing a common space and time. Thegreat cosmic or celestial events happening around and beyond the Earth (eclipses, lineups, and so on) arenot seen as CAUSING events to occur on Earth, but as great signatures of events ALSO happening here onEarth. In other words, there is no "cause" in the heavens followed by an "effect" here on Earth. Instead, bothplanetary and earthly events happen simultaneously and are mutually reflective. Neither is the cause of theother; both are the product of the moment, one acted out in the heavens above, the other here on the Earthbelow.While astrologers don't feel that heavenly events are the cause of events here on Earth, they do feel thatspecific heavenly events are enacted here on the Earth too -- at the same moment. In other words, there isonly one grand "play." The great drama enacted in the sky is also acted out (in exact detail) here on Earth inthe same instant. Another way to say this is that the Earth is part of the cosmos and shares in that cosmicmoment. Scientists have been discovering (for example) that sunspots, solar flares, and solar activity have avery definite (and almost immediate) effect here on Earth. Astrologers tend to feel that all major cosmicevents such as eclipses are interactive; they represent an activity also taking place within us and ourconsciousness.In summary, astrology is a study of heavenly cycles and cosmic events as they are reflected in our earthlyenvironment and vice- versa -- a vast cosmic clock. Astrologers find the cosmic patterns revealed in therhythmic motions of the planets a great help in shedding light on the seeming helter-skelter of everyday life.Astrologers may have their heads in the heavens, but only to better guide their feet here on Earth.We hope you enjoy your Astro*Talk profile. It has been calculated using sophisticated astronomical formulaeto ensure high accuracy. On the next page you will find a list of the zodiac positions of your natal planetsalong with the house cusps for your birth moment.

Your StarType: The Artisan

Here is another quite independent StarType, one with great mental powers, albeitfolded in on themselves, and all converging to a single practical point, like a laserbeam. Oprah's mind always has a very practical point of focus that cuts through aproblem like the tip of a blowtorch. His very strong ability to think and focus tendsto be somewhat inward oriented and almost recursive, in that his mind very muchguides the hand that does the work, and with great precision.

Your Rising Sign: Virgo

First let's take a quick look at your ascendant, or rising sign. Astrologers want toknow what zodiac sign is rising at birth, since this gives a picture of the way youappear or come across to others.You are careful and precise and come across as a caring and responsible person.Your attention to detail and analytical skills (and probably mental, verbal) isobvious to all meeting you. Your appearance is always refined and neat.\par

The Lights: The Sun and Moon

At the time of our birth, the planets (through their configurations and relationships) tell us something abouthow things were when we were born. Each planet points to special qualities within us. Yet, of all the planets,the two most important planets to astrologers are the "lights," the Sun and the Moon. From where we standhere on Earth, the great shining Sun by day and the reflecting Moon at night are our constant companions.They have much to tell us as to where we have been and where we are headed.

The Sun: Your Self and FutureFrom the Sun comes light, that which draws us into life. The Sun represents all thechanges we have not yet taken, that part of us that we have not yet experiencedbut are headed toward. The Sun represents our identity, or self, in that it is towardthese that we are moving and developing. Thus, it also represents that which wewill become: older people, authorities -- those we look toward, or up to. Ouressence, or future. Teachers, gurus, and older (more experienced) people arerepresented by the Sun. The Sun is "hot stuff," those further up the road of lifeexperience.

The Sun

You are open-minded and democratic, enthusiastic, and have a definite sense ofmission. Above all, you are a progressive and enjoy putting into practice that whichis good for all. Your altruism could appear as coolness. At home with differentcultures, peoples, and lands, you love to work with (and in) groups.

Sun in Aquarius

You have a basic self-esteem that is plain to all who meet you. Your sense ofdiscrimination and innate good taste means that you know good items from badand are a connoisseur of all that is fine and beautiful. A love of authority figures(men in particular), plus an appreciation for authority and your elders in general,makes you welcome at any social scene.

Sun Conjunct Venus

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Sun Page 7Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

Being successful in life is easy, for you have a built-in sense of how to approachand unravel even the most difficult problems. You have an instinct for justice andthe law, and you always know how to approach a problem from just the right angle.This ability makes you a natural counselor or guide for others, in particularregarding vocational matters. Working with and helping older persons is alsosuggested.

Sun Trine Jupiter

You could have trouble with authorities, due to a tendency to assert your ownambitions against the realities of the situation. You don't take to organization andyou tend to let things go, ignoring responsibilities. This lack of responsibility canwork against any real goals and could result in your being at odds with the law andolder or respected persons, in particular men. Your lack of seriousness mayundermine any valid attempts to form a base and thus get started.

Sun Square Saturn

You seem to shine when it comes to practical matters or those involving work andcareer. You have an easy way with superiors or those in authority and can alwaysmanage to get the most out of any skill or ability you have. You like work andcareer.

Sun Trine Midheaven

The Moon: The Support SystemHere is information about the kind of environment we create around us, our supportsystem. It is not only the surroundings that we set up today, but the Moon alsorepresents our past, the particular history and social background out of which wegrew. Aside from our social background, the Moon governs all of the old habits thatwe have grown beyond. We tend to look down on, or back on, our Moon. Itrepresents those experiences out of which we have come, all those younger soulswho are unconscious, or "sub" conscious to our own level. This is why it is said thatthe Moon is a mystery planet, for it is both our parent and our child: our parent inthat out of it we were born, our child in that we can't but respond to others who arenow living as we once did.

The Moon

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Moon Page 8Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You are even happy in austere settings, and enjoy getting back to the basics.Religion, truth, and the world of philosophy and ideas are of interest. Your love ofsimplicity is good for politics too. It brings out the truth and a sense of honesty in agroup. You are freedom-loving, independent, and at times, even a trifle remote.You are not bound by relationships and are thus not much of a domestic.

Moon in Sagittarius

You are very fortunate in being able to grow and progress throughout your lifewithout major difficulties. You can always find the resources you require at handplus the necessary instruction in how to use them. An inner vision, coupled with theability to see the "Big" picture, often finds you working as a go-between with others.You could even have a special gift for spanning the generation gap, bringing olderand younger spirits together. A love of animals, children, older people, and theneedy and downtrodden in general, is a lifelong trait.

Moon Sextile Sun

You have a natural appreciation for the past, personal as well as world history -- allthat is traditional. You find it easy to work with music, color, fabric, and the arts --whatever is beautiful and genial. You would make a superb decorator of homesand, in general, all kinds of environments. You enjoy moods and emotions(whatever is psychological), especially in a group setting. Younger people, thehelpless, and the needy can always be found under your umbrella.

Moon Sextile Venus

It may be hard for you to get support from others on career and vocationaldecisions. You tend to go against the crowd, taking the road less traveled by. Youseldom follow what's popular, always preferring to go it alone. Your home andsurroundings may suffer as the result of some of your career choices. You stick toyour guns and tend to brush off questions of sentiment, whether your own orothers.

Moon Opposite Jupiter

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Moon Page 9Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You flee from crowds and are most happy when surrounded by home, family, andall that is private. Your home life is most important. It matters not to you that youare not a public person and not at your best when in a crowd.

Moon Opposite Midheaven

The Inner Planets: Mercury and Venus

The planets Mercury and Venus have more to do with our internal and personal life than with life outside us.These inner planets are located between the orbit of the Earth and the Sun. We can look to qualities that areinside us. Venus indicates how we appreciate and measure our experience, how we value life. Mercury tellsus something about how our mind works, how we think and communicate -- our intrinsic brightness.

Mercury: The Mind and CommunicationMercury is the light in our eyes, the ever-changing consciousness within us thatmoves from idea to idea. Thus Mercury has always represented thoughts, ideas,and the mental process in general. It governs not only ideas, but communications,too. Communications -- by phone, letter, spoken, or however -- are ruled byMercury. Also thoughts, connections, phone wires, and everything that connectsand conveys -- even conversations.

Mercury

You are an impartial thinker, democratic to the point of being impersonal.Fascinated by the latest technology, you have very original ideas, an inventor.Always thinking of the world as a unity, you are idealistic and believe in putting intopractice what is preached. You are group-conscious, community-oriented.

Mercury in Aquarius

You have a hair-trigger temper and it takes little to set it off. Your sharp-tongue iswell-known and you use it before you have time to think, resulting in little mentaland verbal explosions that you regret later. The sad part is that half the time youdon't even mean what you may have said in anger. What is clear to those aroundyou is that you communicate as much with your feelings as with words. Peoplelearn to look at what you do, rather than what you say. Your mind is very, verysharp. The less said the better.

Mercury Square Mars

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Mercury Page 10Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You enjoy working with your mind and can usually find a solution to even the worstproblems. You like to solve puzzles and dilemmas, yours or others'. Your skills inthis regard make you expert at counseling and guiding others. Fine verbal skillsand a natural sense of justice makes legal work a distinct possibility. Working withlaws, natural or man-made, amounts to a real talent. You also have a great interestin ideas, the more true and lasting the better. Religious concepts will be a lifelongconcern for you.

Mercury Trine Jupiter

You are expert at working with words that communicate mystical and mythologicalideas. You are at home in these realms and can always manage to bring other-worldly ideas into the practical realms. You would make an excellent teacher ofphilosophy or religion, for you can't help but communicate these subjects andenchant all who come to know you. Your understanding of the unity behindappearances, along with the ability to put these thoughts into words, is a rare andvaluable gift. You would make a good director, for you like working with mentalimages.

Mercury Trine Neptune

You like your conversations and the ideas you communicate to stay somewherenear the surface. You want your privacy. You resent probing analysis and are quickto say so. Your opposition to others' "getting personal" with you is loud and clearand may be the source of more than a little argument. However, you don't mind atasty bit of gossip when it is someone else who is being discussed. There is morethan a little incongruity here.

Mercury Opposite Pluto

Venus: Values and DiscriminationVenus rules our values and sense of appreciation. When we appraise or appreciatesomething, whether that be another person or a new car, this is Venus -- the senseof love and compassion we may feel. By the same token, this planet rulesenjoyment too. Whether it be self-appreciation or just plain old decadent self-enjoyment by having a good time, this is Venus. When we go shopping or are on aspending spree, it is Venus that allows us to appreciate and value all the goodthings of life.

Venus

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Venus Page 11Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

Marriage for convention's sake, if at all, is your motto. Let's not get too personal oremotional. A friend's friend. You love to work for a great cause or purpose, and abetter world is the place to be. You appreciate what's fair and democratic, and feelmost happy in a group or community.

Venus in Aquarius

You have an innate love of the law and working things through, and you are not putoff by problems and obstacles. On the contrary, you look forward to solving them.You have the ability to work with others, in particular regarding vocation or careerguidance. You can advise and guide in matters requiring work-related decisions.Others find you a generous and loving person. You always share what you find andhave a lucky streak too.

Venus Trine Jupiter

You have trouble accepting responsibilities. You don't like them. You would ratherenjoy yourself at the expense of any obligations, letting them accumulate as theywill. This struggle with authority and simple duty makes for great tension anddiminished good times. It is hard to have fun when you are ignoring yourresponsibilities. What we have here is a stalemate.

Venus Square Saturn

Your love of job and practical skills makes you a fine manager and businessperson. You bring a great deal of love to your work.

Venus Trine Midheaven

Planets Oprah Winfrey

The External Planets: Mars, Jupiter, Saturn

The major planets outside the Earth's orbit (external to us) are Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. These are theplanets of the outer world -- life as we find it outside ourselves. Mars tells us something about the drive andenergy we have, Jupiter shows us how to best channel that energy, and Saturn decrees what sort of materialor territory we will be passing through. Again: Saturn tells us about the territory we will be going through,Jupiter the way or path through it, and Mars what kind of push or drive we can count on to keep going.

Mars: Drive and EmotionsMars is the planet of emotion and inner motivation or drive. When we search for themeaning of something, life or whatever, it is Mars that urges us on, keeps ussearching. Mars also drives us against things, too and sends us into war andcombat. The urgency of Mars, the search for meaning, is identical to the need forunion, yoga, and marriage. Mars is the planet of union, and marriage is the mostcommon form of yoga. When we have questions about the opposite sex, we arelooking at the planet Mars.

Mars

You possess a powerful, persistent drive and are a hard, steady worker. Othersmay find you deep, with a sense of mission and mystery. You are willing to do workothers would not go near, quietly bending things to your will, having it your ownway. You have strong sexual energy, too, and enjoy getting down to the nitty-gritty.

Mars in Scorpio

You put a lot of thought and energy into being different, avoiding the commonplacewith great determination. Your drive to innovate, invent, and find new ways to usethings is both well coordinated and intense. You could be an excellent teacher andinnovator in areas connected to electronics, computers, and communications. Youmay love to travel and are quite energetic, even athletic. You have a strong urge tobe different, to do something different.

Mars Trine Uranus

There could be a lot of emotional tension with this combination. You tend to setyourself against whatever forces of change manage to rear their heads around you.This is never more true than where your feelings are concerned. Your attempt toremain untouched and impersonal seems doomed to failure. Everything intrudes,gets too personal, and threatens to hurt your feelings. Your insistence on being anemotional island is probably interspersed with bursts of anger, even fits of rage.

Mars Square Pluto

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Mars Page 13Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

Jupiter: Career and Life PathJupiter is the planet of success and simple survival, the way we have to solve theproblems that confront us. Thus Jupiter has to do with the way in which we can besuccessful, our vocation. The Hindu word for Jupiter is Guru. Jupiter is the guruand guide, the way we go through life, our life path or vocation. Jupiter is themethod each of us has for dealing with the laws of life, our Saturn, or limitations.Jupiter is the light or path. Jupiter provides us with our sense of direction, the pathwe are on, the way we handle life. It affects how we approach life's problems. It hasalways been an indicator of how successful we may be, our vocation.

Jupiter

A career in communications of one kind or another is indicated, for you are a kindof living link or channel. You love investigations, reporting, writing, speaking,broadcasting, advertising -- any and all networking. Forever curious, you lovesearching for answers and following leads.

Jupiter in Gemini

Career is very important, and you have superb management abilities. You areexpert at manipulating a situation to the benefit of all concerned.

Jupiter Conjunct Midheaven

Saturn: ResponsibilitiesThe process of finding out who we are (self-discovery) starts when we come togrips with whatever problems life presents to us and begin to get a handle on them.In other words, if we have not dealt with Saturn, or time (that is, if we don't havesome control of time), there is little opportunity for other questions. Saturn rules thelaws and limitations of this material world we all live in. Saturn indicates where weare bound to learn, the narrowness that makes our way felt, the walls that makehomes possible. Saturn holds us together as much as apart. Saturn is said to bethe great teacher, the planet that keeps us from getting carried away in onedirection or another. Although it always seeks to limit and determine any thought,word, or action, it also defines and clarifies. Saturn is called the prince of thematerial world.

Saturn

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Saturn Page 14Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You have difficulty owning up to any selfishness, sexuality or mental undercurrentsof any kind. You may attempt to deny your passions, but you need to acceptinstincts, attachments, and all things natural. Allow your desires to functionunhindered. Take off the straight-jacket. Feel it.

Saturn in Scorpio

The Outer Planets

In the previous sections, we have dealt with planets that we can see with our naked eyes. In general, theseplanets refer to life as we know and live it and are the so-called historical or classic planets. Beyond these arethree planets that are not visible in the sky and which have cycles longer than the average human life span.Since they are beyond Saturn or time, astrologers call them the trans-personal or transcendental planets --the planets beyond the physical. One of the ways astrologers learn something about our life beyond time(eternal life) is through these three outer planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Here we find information onhow we discover ourselves (Uranus), how we understand and accept these discoveries (Neptune), and, intime, how we depend and identify with them (Pluto).

Uranus: Break-Thrus & InsightsOur responsibilities can tend to weigh us down, and we each have our particularways of getting around (or breaking through) the mass of obstructions that tends tocongeal around us. The planet that has to do with how we get beyond thedifficulties and problems life presents us is Uranus. Here is the way insights cometo us, how we discover or come to know and understand ourselves. It has to dowith finding new uses for old things, and it rules inventions and sudden insights intoour life -- everything that is unusual, eccentric, and out of the ordinary. It is thereverse of the status quo and is always unconventional and heretical. Uranus is, inmany ways, the opposite, or undoing of Saturn.

Uranus

You are very innovative in your approach to home, family, and the domestic sceneand can really see how to get into traditional values. You have natural insight intosensations, feelings, and just living life. You like to relax by gardening, cooking,and being with family. You get off on the humdrum.

Uranus in Cancer

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Uranus Page 15Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

The rebel in you likes to ignore your dreams and ideals and just let come whatmay. You relish your freedom and independence and pursue it even at theexpense of what you know you really want. You can take delight in ruining yourown deep-rooted dreams. The romantic in you struggles against the frontier spiritthat often moves you to action.

Uranus Square Neptune

Neptune: Ideals & ImaginationEven the most hard-nosed of us have moments of real understanding, when thingsare seen as linked together and one piece. We stop getting the idea in little flashesand just get the whole thing. It dawns on us. We each have our own way of lettinggo, having communion, and (as the poet wrote) letting "the dewdrop slip into theshining sea." These moments and this state of mind are, in fact, the source for allour imagination. There are many ways of seeing through the separateness in theworld to the unity behind it.

Neptune

Relationships are the ideal. Non-discriminating and impersonal in scope, to you allare equal. You are seldom bound by tradition or personal ties and are notdomestic. You hold the ideal vision up to the real. You open up in response toothers and accept others as yourself.

Neptune in Libra

You work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are themost personal or private -- depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit,assisting at the birth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process.You accept the natural process of birth, spiritual and physical, and have dedicatedyourself to helping it along. You would make a great teacher in these areas.

Neptune Sextile Pluto

Planets Oprah Winfrey

Neptune Page 16Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

Pluto: Inner Change and GrowthPluto is the planet of profound change, starting deep within us and moving towardthe surface. It often touches upon the most sensitive psychological areas inside us.Once touched, we have no choice but to change and grow. The most sensitive ofexperiences, the times of greatest vulnerability, are times of complete identificationwith an experience, a person, or a thing. We know in these instants that we arelooking at our self, what we are. The most personal of experiences is one ofcomplete identification with a person, moment, or idea. Perhaps this is onlypossible for most of us when we look into our child's eyes, and then onlyinfrequently. Love is not the experience here, but total identification. This is verysensitive stuff. To touch upon this material is to go through deep inner change andtransformation -- inner alchemy. Identification and experiencing that life is our owncreation and that, in fact, you are I and I am you. This experience breaks us downand humbles. When we touch upon this experience, we cannot but die to what wehave been thinking and doing up to now. It reduces us to our most sensitivebecause -- in a flash -- we see or remember that it all is us, our life.

Pluto

You are very sensitive (even vulnerable) when it comes to expressing yourself,getting it out. Periods of intense creativity enable you to go through changes andinner growth. This creative intensity is good for music, poetry, art, and such.

Pluto in Leo

Houses Page 17Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

The twelve houses of the horoscope, particularly when they are occupied by a planet, provide a clue to areasof special activity and use. Here is an analysis of house activity based on planet emphasis:

First House: Appearance, Approach

The first house has to do with how we appear or the way we come across, thus our appearance andpersonality. This is the essential stuff that bubbles up in us spontaneously and that is obvious to others as ourtrademark or activity. It is what makes us each so personally different. This house rules our personal self andeverything about us that draws a reaction from our surroundings or others.

Virgo energy is analytical and precise, always separating what is worthwhile andworth supporting from that which is outmoded and of no further use. A mental sign,where thinking and examining are in high focus. Also, a different kind of mother,here an endless caring and worrying (fussing) about just about everything. Alwayscompassionate and responsive, Virgo energy is service-oriented above all, oftenthinking and caring more about what others are doing and thinking than for self.

Virgo

Second House: Possessions, Reactions

The second house is concerned with how we respond to or field whatever impulses or unique and personalqualities we manifest via our first house. This is how we hold or "have" things (possessions, material goods,money, and the like). The second house always refers to how we secure ourselves, the kind of response weget from life and those around us.

Libra energy is always facilitating and responsive, assuming the appropriatereaction or response to any question or statement. What is sometimes seen astwo-faced is only Libra's facility at responding to each in kind. This is certainly thesocial sign, par excellence. Impersonal and impartial, this sign doles out only whatis demanded, never overdoing things.

Libra

Houses Oprah Winfrey

Houses Page 18Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You could be frugal when it comes to possessions, always limiting your purchasesto what is essential and has value. This same theme carries through in yourresponse to people. You don't tend to lavish affection or sentiment. You keep itshort and simple.

Saturn in 2nd House

You are very idealistic when it comes to possessions, finance, and how you chooseto make your living. Your response to what life offers you is always very elevated,although not always practical. This could lead to some disappointments.

Neptune in 2nd House

Third House: Inquiries, Communications

The third house is concerned with explorations, investigations, and inquiry and research of all kinds. It alsorules connections, communications, wires, tubes -- anything that we can get through with our body, mind,voice, letters, what-have-you. It is here that we explore and search for the limits of our life, whatever we areworking with at the moment. A very mental house, concerned with finding, furthering, peering, and all mannerof questioning. Traditionally rules short journeys, siblings.

Scorpio is the most famous sign. Intense, passionate, and very personal, Scorpiorushes past superficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but afanatic foe, this sign does well in politics and all areas where someone who daresis rewarded. Often associated with sexual energy, perhaps due to its tendency tostrip away veneer, laying bare anything that is there.

Scorpio

A relentless drive to pursue knowledge, to search, research, and follow out leadsand pointers. You are very motivated when it comes to communications of all forms-- phone, voice, letters, computers, and the like.

Mars in 3rd House

Houses Oprah Winfrey

Houses Page 19Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

Fourth House: Home, Family, Security

The fourth house is where we send down roots, find our limits, and generally secure ourselves. It is the end ofany searching we might have done in the third house. Here we find or end our search, settle down, andmanage to get in possession of the whole situation. This is our home and the base from which we can work,feel, and experience. This is the root of our experience, the core or thick of it.

Sagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid, and to the point. Sometimes harsh, thisenergy always is concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand.Associated with philosophy, religion, and all things that last, Sagittarius energy isalways welcome in politics as well as social and community endeavors, where itsbasic fairness and evenhandedness is helpful.

Sagittarius

Fifth House: Expression, Creativity

The fifth house has to do with awareness, emotion (to move out), and expression (to press out). Here there isalways a growing sense of self-confidence and even a pride of ownership, since we begin to recognize andown our experience. We know that we have had or are having an experience. All forms of expression andoffspring are connected to this house -- children, animals, creative expression, and so on. A sense of directionand ownership takes hold at this point in our experience.

Capricorn is the business energy of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of theemotional Cancer. Given to clear-headedness and practical insight and vision, thissign always takes a distanced perspective, a cool appraisal. Logical andpainstaking, Capricorns love hard work and earned results.

Venus in 5th House

Sixth House: Responsibility, Work, Health

The sixth house has to do with salvaging and preserving what is good and healthy in our experience. Here weseparate the wheat from the chaff.

Seventh House: Relationships, Other People

The seventh house is the house of partnerships, relationships, social life, and all that carries us beyond ourpersonal self into an awareness of other people, community, and the like. This includes spiritual awakeningand the discovery that we are more than just our personality. Here we begin to respond to our personal needs(and those of others) for the first time. We can see what is going on and are committed to it; thus, marriageand yoga, or union, is indicated in this house.

Pisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath thesurface. This sign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend toabsorb all the little barbs and digs coming from outside. They always have theirmind on an inner goal, something more important. They are very forgiving andaccepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of more important issues.

Pisces

Eighth House: Business Savvy, Elimination

The eighth house, traditionally the house of death, is concerned with getting rid of excess parts of ourselvesthat we see we no longer need. Thus this house also covers initiation and any activities where we aretransforming toward a more integral position, getting to the heart of things. The no-nonsense quality of theeighth house makes it good for business ventures since here we are stripping away the dross to reveal thetruth or essence of the subject.

Aries is the sign of the pioneer and leader. It is always impulsive, concentrated,and spontaneous. Act first and think about what you have done later. Rushing inwhere others fear to tread, the Aries energy is attention-getting. It always provokesa response from the surroundings, from others. There is something essential andinstigative that starts or causes something else to happen -- a reaction orresponse.

Aries

Ninth House: Religions, Philosophy, Ideas

The ninth house covers long journeys and religion (the longest journey of all). Here is what remains of thepurification that takes place in the eighth house -- the seed, or essence, of an entire cycle of experience.Religion comes from a Latin word that means to bind back, and thus refers to all things that last or endure,such as the truth. Essential ideas, philosophy, and all that is the very heart of things belong here.

Taurus manages to respond, possess, and "have" just about everything possible.This is a nurturing and fertile sign in that any seed or impulse is cradled, bringingforth growth and development. Taurus is the way we "have" things, how wepossess and acquire things. There is something gentle, regular, steadfast, anddetermined about Taurus. Always accepting, mothering, providing a base for... amatrix or womb where growth takes place.

Here we take our vows never to forget what we have seen and to work hard tomake these dreams into reality. Thus this house has always been connected with altruistic and humanitariangoals and trying to set them in motion. It is the house of friends and community, because when we arepowered by a real insight or vision we share with all -- irrespective of differences.

Elements, modalities, and house quadrants. These are all techniques used by astrologers to gain a generalpicture of how a person measures up. How do your planets and houses total up? Which do you have inabundance, and which do you lack, if any? Those with high totals show what we can or must do in life. Theseare qualities we have. However, most people are more interested by what they lack or want -- their lowesttotals. They tend to study their "wants," imitate, and even pretend to have them. The old adage is: we becomewhat we want (or lack), while we do what we can (or have to do). Here are your totals:

There is an emphasis on communication, expression of ideas, and the connectionsbetween things, places, and people. What goes on in your mind is the all-importantmotivation in your life. You tend towards mental pursuits and admire intelligence.

Have Air

Common sense and the ability to deal with practical matters may be lacking, andyou may wonder at those who spend much time making money, doing life's chores,and attending to basic necessities. You depend on mental activity and confidence.

Burn Rate_Link

Burn Rate Page 25Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

We all change, but the question is: At what rate? Some of us tear through change after change, one phasefollowing another, year after year, while others move at a more serene pace. Or, one area of our lives may behectic and forever changing, while other areas are quite tranquil. Why do some people seem to live lifetimeswithin lifetimes? Here is an analysis of your particular rate of change or "burn rate," including the particularareas of your life (planets) where you can expect continued change and growth. Areas where there is a verylow index of change (indicating clear and easy use of the qualities involved) will also be pointed out. If youhave sometimes wondered about the areas of your life where the candles burn at both ends, here are thedetails.You have an average amount of change present in life, neither too much nor very little. Specific planets, eitherhigh or low, will be presented after this (if any exist).A majority of planets in the FUTURE suggests that you tend to run ahead of the pack, taking changes andacting things out before they become accepted and a part of the status quo. Things happen to you that youcome to understand over time.

Planets in High FocusYour sense of appreciation and discrimination amounts to a very great talent, a realgift. You have a loving and compassionate quality that requires very little educationor development. This is a precious commodity. Low burn rate here.

Venus

Emotional change and growth will be in high focus and amount to a constant inyour life. A high burn rate here suggests that feelings, motivation, and sheer drivewill be a trademark as well as a source of continual experience and learning. Youfind yourself in constant change in matters of feelings, and emotional scenes arepart of your stock and trade. Experience in these realms will be extensive.

Mars

There are big changes (high burn rate) throughout your life in matters oforganization and responsibility. It may be difficult for you to learn to be thorough, tofinish things, and take care of all the loose ends. You may have a lot to learnregarding what is and what is not essential in life -- separating the wheat from thechaff. Getting down to the nitty-gritty, the bare bones of the matter, could well be amajor lesson.

Life can be challenging, and things are not always easy. The major challenges in a natal chart are where wecan expect increased activity and personal involvement -- ready or not. These critical areas of life can bedifficult, and the resulting confusion and possible obscuration often makes it hard for us to see and act withnormal clarity. Therefore, when it comes to the following factors you may wish to exercise caution and extrapatience.

You tend to avoid getting personal when it comes to your own emotions, and wouldrather keep sensitive matters at arm's length. You don't mind getting into thepersonal business of others, producing some heavy confrontations. Those aroundyou don't care for personal probing on your part, and they will let you know it. Yourhome and surroundings tend to be very traditional.

Your home and surroundings are tidy and air-tight, as well.However, you don't mind probing and dissecting the lives of others.

These two parts of you which seldom meet causeconstant tension, resulting in periodic explosions.

Mars Square Pluto

You have difficulty controlling your emotions, and this often results in flare-ups withothers, especially family or those closest to you. This could cost you much-neededsupport and intimacy.

You may find yourself being too harsh or forceful when dealing with others,especially in group situations. The social fabric around you is something you tearthrough all too often in your drive to get things done. This can result in a distinctlack of support or assistance from others. Since you tend to ignore sentiment andthe feelings of others, you are often left on your own. This non-cooperation makesit hard to really get ahead.

Mercury Square Mars

Your dreams and ideals tend to clash with your reality, the actual surroundings inwhich you find yourself. You may insist on perfection at the expense of yourpersonal emotions and feelings. Others may see you as unrealistic or downrightdeceptive. Others may confront you and refuse to go along with your other-worldliness. You labor to find some compromise between dreams and your actualsurroundings.

Landscape: Major Life Periods

What follows amounts to a brief overview of the first thirty years or so of your life -- a road map of the years tocome. Since childhood, adolescence, and early adult life are so crucial to each of us, an attempt has beenmade to describe these formative years. Based on the gradual movement of the planet Saturn, this is one ofthe most tested of all astrological techniques. It is used by almost every professional astrologer as part of anypersonal consultation. Provided that your time of birth is more or less accurate, you will find this informationboth accurate and informative. Here is a general life overview, followed by a close-up on your currentchanges -- what is happening right now. First the overview:

Your Personal BackgroundA very active and outgoing youngster, you show an interest in the outside world and social life very early, sayaround 11-12 years of age. You may at this time move very rapidly into the limelight and find yourself a leaderand quite successful in all social activities. Things will just work out for you. This trend will continue and reacha peak when you are about 18-19 years of age, after which time you will lose interest in the social andexternal and turn more inward. This could result in your being somewhat of a prodigy and achieving a veryearly career success, only to find yourself less and less involved in it. You may even turn away fromeverything and choose to start over again to find a new vocation. You may discover yourself spending manyyears pursuing a more inward and subjective path that could last until you are 30 years of age (or more) atwhich time you will turn outward once again and take a new direction.

Your Current SituationNow for a close-up of recent years: while landscape was quite general, the dates given in this close-up shouldbe much more precise. Life is composed of sections of time, each devoted to one kind of activity or another.We go along for a while in one direction until something changes within (or outside) us and we head off in anew course. Some of our earlier activities dry up and new ones spring up in their place. What follows is ananalysis of the time period in which you find yourself now. Don't look here for a day-to-day account of life butrather to get a picture of this stretch of time, "these years."

On Lower Meridian: Dec 10, 2015The dates above point to the end of a period of about seven years during which you may have been veryinward and self-absorbed -- quiet, subjective years. Information that you have been examining and thinkingabout will now begin to take shape and prove useful to you. This next period is one of action and embarkingon new projects. You will feel more and more confident and outgoing, a sense of confidence that growsstronger with each passing day. Things that may have been in suspended animation for many years will nowprecipitate and take on structure and shape. These next years are ones in which you should plan to work hardto bring out and give shape to the ideas you have pored over these last 6-7 years. You are beginning to reallymove forward now and can expect rewards to take an outward career, and social form within a few years. Agrowing self-confidence. In summary, from this time forward, expect a more confident, outgoing attitude, foryou have brought to a close a time of inward examination and learning. A growing sense of direction and self-worth will find you reaching out and establishing yourself.

Major Transits_Link

Major Transits Page 34Copyright © 2012 Matrix Software

You will go through a lot of change regarding personal values -- your ability to appreciate, measure, andappraise things. You may find yourself preoccupied with possessions and the way you feel about them. Allmatters of value, valuing, and ownership will be the source of continuous learning. Issues of compassion,love, and care are areas that will require learning.

Your ability to respond to life -- to possess and nurture your own ideas andimpulses -- may suffer some setbacks, or at least some major reorganization. Youcould find yourself limiting or cutting back on resources.
