An outstanding Russian poet, prose writer and translator. Born into the family of artist Leonid Pasternak and pianist Rosalia Kaufman. In the creative atmosphere of a family that was friends with such great artists as Leo Tolstoy and Sergei Rachmaninov, Boris was immersed in the world of literature and art from childhood.
Pasternak received a varied education, first studying music at the Moscow Conservatory, and then philosophy at Moscow University and the University of Marburg in Germany. However, he decided to devote himself to literature.
His first collections of poetry, such as Twin in the Clouds (1914) and My Sister is Life (1922), brought him recognition for his innovative style and deep lyrical themes. In the 1930s, Pasternak was also actively involved in translations, including the works of Shakespeare, Goethe and other classics of world literature.
Pasternak’s main prose work was the novel Doctor Zhivago, written in 1945-1955 and published abroad in 1957. The novel describes the complex fates of people against the backdrop of revolutionary events and the civil war in Russia. For this work, Pasternak was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1958, but due to pressure from the Soviet authorities he was forced to refuse the prize.
Pasternak died on May 30, 1960 in Peredelkino, near Moscow. His work had a huge influence on Russian and world literature, remaining a significant part of the cultural heritage of the 20th century. Link to biography.

Boris Pasternak - Natal Chart Interpretation
Horoscope interpretation comes down to combining the meanings of the four basic elements of astrology — Planets, Signs, Aspects, and Houses — into a single whole, which is what makes each interpretation individual. More...
SUN
Strength: 77.13
Harmony: -7.36
The SUN is the most important luminary, the center of life force. It can be compared to the king on a chessboard. It determines the health and well-being of the person born. It gives a creative impulse and ideals, including the desire for power, influence, and strength.
The position of the main luminary in the natal chart has fateful significance. For example, the happiest people on Earth are those who do not have pronounced tense aspects to the Sun. At the same time, one might think that their character traits may be somewhat “soft,” because through the Sun a person develops the ego and strengthens the inner backbone of life. It is important to remember that the Sun represents the inner mind, not instinct. More...
Q Sun in Aquarius x 21°
A representative of Aquarius can surprise acquaintances like no one else with their extravagance and wild antics. This person is freedom-loving and curious, which prevents them from staying in one place for long. The description of Aquarius shows that they can be almost obsessively friendly, yet they do not always have enough tact, which becomes an obstacle in communication with others. An Aquarius Sun always strives for new adventures without focusing on any one thing. Of all the signs, Aquarius can be described as the most unpredictable.

Q Sun in the 7th House
SEVENTH HOUSE - House of marriage and partnership. SUN (planet of vital energy and individuality) in the Seventh House: marriage and partnership are likely to bring the native success. They may help the native become wealthier and raise their social standing. The native will probably marry rather late; their spouse may be well known or simply a worthy person. Sex in marriage is important to them. Strengths: they are popular and know how to attract people. Weakness: periodic quarrels may arise because of their need to dominate.

Sun Aspects
Just as all the planets in the solar system revolve around the Sun, a person receives their life purpose from the Sun in the natal chart. The Sun is the ego, the “inner child” that makes the final decisions. It guides the person and can be considered the “boss” of the natal chart, especially in the charts of men. Read more
ASCENDANT
Strength: 48.30
Harmony: -14.39
In the birth chart, the Ascendant is the cusp of the First House. It is the second most important factor after the position of the Sun. The position of the Ascendant in the signs of the Zodiac determines how a person manifests outwardly. The position of a planet on the Ascendant significantly strengthens the expression of that planet’s qualities in the person. In general, the position of planets on or near the Ascendant is the third most important factor. The symbol used in the table is (ASC).
The Ascendant speaks of the mask a person wears in public; it is the first impression they make when meeting people. Often, when the person is puzzled by how others describe them, it is because others are describing this aspect of their personality. The Ascendant is present in the person’s appearance and individuality, sometimes extending as far as influencing physical characteristics. The sign becomes noticeably expressed in their image, style, and manner of carrying themselves. It is also reflected in the way they act. Some astrologers believe that the sign becomes weaker after a person reaches the age of 30, as their confidence in who they are grows. The rising sign manifests in the first personal traits inherent in the person and in the way they react to their environment.
ASCENDANT in Leo g 14° - Ruler: Sun
The Sun, the ruler of the sign Leo, gives typical representatives of the sign nobility, generosity, pride, a protective attitude toward others, and a desire to show themselves and shine in society. A typical Leo cannot live without attention. In negative development, people of this sign become unbearable in their need to always be at the center of things, while excessive “royalty” degenerates into permissiveness: “I am the king, so I can do anything.”
People born with Leo Rising are usually generous, proud, emotional, romantic, vain, self-loving, courageous, sentimental, self-confident, impressive, extroverted, and eager to shine and be successful in everything. They like to “rule,” which follows from their “royal” nature. They love taking risks, sometimes even recklessly, but they definitely have a taste for life. The worst thing anyone can do to them is wound their pride or treat them disrespectfully. They are restrained in matters of love and need a partner they can be proud of, while also wanting to be admired in return. They are a loyal defender of those they love. They can be hot-tempered, but they do not tend to stay angry for long. They like playing the role of king and constantly feeling heightened energy around them.
They enjoy being at the center of attention and will seek it in every possible way. They can be stubborn in their own way, although not as frightening as people sometimes claim. If their pride or dignity is wounded, then beware: they may forgive, but they will never forget. They love sports and outdoor activity, and their vitality and spirit are strong enough. Since their need for love and affection is very great, they need to feel needed. If they become disappointed, they lose interest and the desire to live.
The main lesson to learn: learn humility.
The Sun rules Leo, so when interpreting the natal chart, special attention should be given to the Sun. Read more...
Ascendant Aspects:
MIDHEAVEN (MC)
Strength: 65.07
Harmony: -12.28

The Midheaven (Meridian, MC) is the culminating point of the natal chart. It symbolizes the noon of life and coincides with the cusp of the Tenth House of the horoscope. The Meridian line, MC - IC, is the vertical axis of the horoscope, while the Ascendant - Descendant line (AC - DC) is the horizontal axis. Together, they form the so-called “axial cross,” or “cross of fate.” In terms of importance, the Midheaven ranks third in the horoscope after the Ascendant and the position of the Sun. The Midheaven, like the Tenth House of the horoscope as a whole, symbolizes everything connected with the person’s profession and social standing: success or lack of success in society, career, popularity, fame, titles, awards, or the absence of these. It shows the person as an individual within society, points to their professional skills, and indicates the possibility of rising up the social ladder.
Midheaven in Aries a 22° - Ruler: Mars and Pluto
Rulers: Mars and Pluto. The main task of a person with the MC in Aries is to gain power and a position of leadership. What matters most to them is bringing their own ideas and plans to life. Their way of moving toward a goal often has an aggressive edge. They are guided mainly by their own desires and judgments and may build a career without being especially considerate of others. If they deem it necessary, they may seize power by force. Of course, this is not always the case, because in the end everything depends on the cosmic status of the ruler, its placement, and its configurations with the other planets and elements of the horoscope.
Nothing comes to this person without a struggle. Fame, honors, respect, social weight, promotion, and the achievement of their goals are all gained through their own efforts, and they have to rely only on themselves. Still, one can safely say that success is possible, although it may be unstable and short-lived.
If the negative influences of the rulers, Mars and Pluto, predominate, the main obstacles to achieving the goal are negative character traits: heightened impulsiveness, haste, recklessness, irritability, excitability, touchiness, aggression, abuse of power, and other negative qualities associated with the sign of Aries.

Midheaven Aspects:
MOON
Strength: 74.93
Harmony: -4.94
The Moon is a transmitter of sensations, emotions, and moods. It rules the spheres of the soul and subconscious, innate reflexes, and habits that come from childhood. The Moon is the ruler of Cancer. Taurus is considered the sign of its exaltation. Capricorn is considered the sign of its fall, and Scorpio the sign of its detriment, or exile. If the Moon has strong essential dignity in the horoscope and forms harmonious interactions with other planets in the natal chart, the native feels inner harmony; even when difficulties arise in life, they overcome periods of trouble with ease.
More...W Moon in Libra j 24°
The Moon: the second most important luminary, and often the first in a woman’s chart. The Moon gathers and transforms the energy of the other planets, especially the Sun. It rules instincts and emotions. It is the planet of moods. It symbolizes the feminine principle, conception, and motherhood, unlike Venus, which symbolizes sensual love.
People born with the Moon in Libra are kind, responsive, pleasant, optimistic, honest, and interested in social issues. The native is a tactful and caring friend and may do everything possible to help other people feel accepted and valued. At the same time, they most likely have sound judgment and are capable of drawing the right conclusions.
Read more...
W Moon in the 4th House
FOURTH HOUSE (House of home, as well as the beginning and end of life). MOON (planet of emotions and instincts) in the Fourth House: the native cares for the family and is, or can become, a devoted parent. They will probably face frequent moves and prefer to live near water. At the end of life, they may achieve public recognition. Strengths: financial abilities in the field of real estate and family estate management. Weaknesses: they turn away from reality.

Moon Aspects
Moon aspects determine a person's everyday lifestyle and influence their health and relationships with others. They govern the maternal nature of women and the feelings of men connected with the opposite sex. Read more...
MERCURY
Strength: 46.70
Harmony: 9.58
Its close proximity to the Sun defines the nature of this small yet charismatic planet. Its main functions are intellect, logical thinking, cognition, communication, and the individual’s connection with society.
The ability to establish connections is traditionally considered Mercury’s most specific “character” trait. Even the myths described Mercury, or Hermes, as a mediator between Olympus and Earth, the messenger of the gods who connected their world with the world of humans by transmitting information: the gods’ commands to people and people’s requests to the gods. More...
E Mercury in Aquarius x 00°
The thoughts of people with Mercury in the sign of Aquarius may be unique, unusual, quick, eccentric, unconventional, scientific, strange, and perhaps somewhat ahead of their time. They are progressive and nontraditional thinkers.
Read more...
E Mercury in the 6th House
SIXTH HOUSE (House of service and health). MERCURY (planet of the mind) in the Sixth House: the native strives for perfection and may feel overwhelmed by the avalanche of everyday tasks. They are interested in health, diet, and hygiene and are usually well informed about the latest developments in these areas. They are prone to nervousness and may suffer from stomach or respiratory problems. Strength: they are practical and efficient, especially in work connected with writing and communication. Weakness: excessive worry about health and work.
Read more...
Mercury Aspects:
VENUS
Strength: 65.35
Harmony: 15.48
The areas of Venus’s influence are beauty, love, art, choice, friendship, partnership, and material values.
Venus rules the Second and Seventh Houses. The Second House points to money and property; it describes not only the material values a person owns, but also their natural talents and abilities, through which, with certain effort, they can acquire material prosperity. The Seventh House governs marriage, partnerships in business and politics, and business contracts. A strong Venus is a source of emotional warmth, tenderness, selfless devotion, and material well-being. More...
R Venus in Aquarius x 19°
People born with Venus under the sign of Aquarius in the natal chart express affection in an open, unconventional, and uniquely personal way. It is very typical for them to take part in social activities that bring people together.
Read more...
R Venus in the 7th House
SEVENTH HOUSE - House of marriage and partnership. VENUS (planet of love and pleasure) in the Seventh House: the native seeks harmony and fulfillment in marriage and partnership. They are affectionate, romantic, and attractive to the opposite sex. At some point in life, they are likely to gain high social status or wealth through a spouse or partner. They usually marry early and more than once. Strength: they are a born peacemaker. Weakness: they become resentful if others do not make the first move toward them.
Read more...
Venus Aspects:
MARS
Strength: 56.81
Harmony: -28.50
Mars is strength, assertiveness, aggressive sexuality, struggle, and rivalry. The planet’s most important functions are protection, the instinct of self-preservation, and self-expression. In the modern world, people rarely have to protect their lives or homes from mortal danger. What comes to the forefront instead is defending one’s own opinion, protecting personal interests in professional and social spheres, competing, and striving to win.
A strong Mars gives the world heroes capable of sacrificing themselves for other people or for higher ideals. In everyday reality, the person expresses themselves vividly through activity directed toward the common good. More...
T Mars in Scorpio k 21°
People born with Mars in Scorpio are extremely strong-willed and pursue their goals and desires with passionate dedication and determination. They are capable of complete concentration and strict discipline.
Read more...
T Mars in the 4th House
FOURTH HOUSE (House of home, as well as the beginning and end of life). MARS (planet of energy and self-assertion) in the Fourth House: the native has a powerful desire to own their own home and live independently. In childhood, they may have had conflicts with their parents, especially with the father. In old age, they will remain active and independent in matters of housing. Strength: enterprise in earning money from home. Weakness: tendency toward conflicts with household members.
Read more...
Mars Aspects:
JUPITER
Strength: 45.17
Harmony: -1.13
In the astrological theater, Jupiter plays the role of the “Great Benefic.” Since antiquity, it has been associated with luck and material blessings. Yet the largest planet in the solar system has other purposes as well. It is responsible for spiritual and intellectual development and encourages a person to search for the meaning of life. From a psychological point of view, Jupiter embodies the generous, fair father. Its main enemies are stagnation and boredom. The giant rules the Ninth and Twelfth Houses.
The remarkable qualities of a strong Jupiterian person are often not their own achievement, but the result of fantastic luck. A winning lottery ticket or an unexpected inheritance are typical gifts from generous Jupiter. More...
Y Jupiter in Capricorn z 27°
People born with Jupiter in Capricorn are honest, sincere, loyal, inventive, resourceful, and good at understanding different mechanisms. Their efforts to grow, develop, find new opportunities, and succeed are combined with caution.
Read more...
Y Jupiter in the 6th House
SIXTH HOUSE (House of service and health). JUPITER (planet of luck and expansiveness) in the Sixth House: the native tends to be successful at work, gets along well with coworkers, and is someone others can rely on. Jupiter usually brings them financial rewards. They enjoy good food and may be prone to weight gain. Strength: their professional life allows them to travel and grow. Weakness: health problems may arise from self-indulgence.
Read more...
Jupiter Aspects:
SATURN
Strength: 35.45
Harmony: -22.60
Traditionally, the “Lord of Time” is associated with the darkest sides of life: old age and death, decline and deprivation. Yet Saturn is also a great sage, mentor, and lawgiver. It embodies a person’s conscience. Saturn creates prohibitions, but without them, chaos and anarchy would reign in life. Saturn promotes maturity and teaches a person to plan their life. It rules the Tenth astrological House and is responsible for career, social status, and reputation.
A strong, beneficial Saturn gives a person healthy ambition, the ability to creatively rework experience accumulated over centuries and make valuable discoveries based on it, as well as strong health, longevity, and a secure old age. More...
U Saturn in Virgo h 01°
People born with Saturn in Virgo are hardworking, capable, practical, demanding, skilled in any task, organized, sometimes shy, thrifty, diligent, efficient, and punctual.
Read more...
U Saturn in the 2nd House
SECOND HOUSE (House of property). SATURN (planet of discipline and limitations) in the Second House: the native is ambitious in matters of material comfort and is inclined to make long-term financial plans. They are frugal and perceptive, cautious in investing, and prefer slowly growing, reliable stocks to any chance of rapid enrichment. Money does not come to them quickly; they have to make considerable effort to earn it. Strengths: practicality, persistence in work. Weaknesses: stinginess; they may face delays and obstacles in earning money.

Saturn Aspects:
URANUS
Strength: 71.26
Harmony: 0.15
Uranus is a symbol of suddenness and surprise, originality and eccentricity, unforeseen actions and behavior, various shifts and changes, turning points and rearrangements of both a positive and negative nature. Under its influence, past and present values are reassessed, and the future is anticipated.
Uranus is the sign of higher reason and almost supernatural intuition. It gives rise to true geniuses, people who are ahead of their time and remain misunderstood by their own generation. Uranus represents a projected point of the unconscious, yet it brings highly symbolic images and impulses into a person’s consciousness, arising both while awake and in dreams. This distinctive power to form images gives birth to intuition and inspiration, a flash of creative force, as well as scientists and inventors, poets and performers, musicians and artists, statesmen and political figures, religious reformers and revolutionaries.
Driven by the desire to play by its own rules, Uranus embodies change, reform, evolution, and revolution. More...
I Uranus in the 4th House
FOURTH HOUSE (House of home, as well as the beginning and end of life). URANUS (planet of change and originality) in the Fourth House: the native is by no means a homebody and needs a certain degree of independence. Their childhood differed from that of their friends; perhaps their parents were involved in some unusual activity. Their life may change suddenly, and they may spend their final years in surroundings that are difficult for them to imagine. Strength: they entertain guests wonderfully. Weakness: they may have a destructive influence on family relationships.
Read more...
Uranus Aspects:
NEPTUNE
Strength: 49.65
Harmony: -4.12
Neptune is full of mysteries. Its realm is feelings and impressions, dreams and reveries. The planet forms a refined perception of art, as well as an attraction to religion and mysticism. Neptune constantly acts on a person in an almost imperceptible, even mysterious way, creating forces that reject and refuse to acknowledge any psychic or spiritual limitations. These forces stir the feelings to their deepest depths and direct the mind toward the search for still-unknown and undiscovered mysteries of nature, the cosmos, and the human being.
More...
O Neptune in the 10th House
TENTH HOUSE (House of career). NEPTUNE (planet of spirituality and illusions) in the Tenth House: the native has high aspirations and creative talents. Imagination and intuition help them in their career. Neptune in this House points to an unusual profession or success connected with the use of a fictional name. Strength: an idealistic and spiritual approach to life. Weakness: they may lose their sense of direction by moving in too many directions at once.
Read more...
Neptune Aspects:
PLUTO
Strength: 44.85
Harmony: -6.04
PLUTO is the main ruler of all collective mysteries, gatherings, rallies, demonstrations, and similar mass events. Together with Uranus, it destroys old, rotten, outdated political world systems, creating new ones separately for each nation and state.
On the one hand, Pluto shows a person as an integral being; on the other, as a particle of the cosmos and of a given society. Pluto symbolizes the final stage of the individuation process, a second birth or rebirth, after which the person becomes more complete. In one case, it may bring the person under its influence brilliant success and career advancement, unexpected wealth or worldwide fame, influence over the masses, the crowd, the public, or an audience, and a social rise as rapid and dazzling as a meteor. In another case, it may bring total losses. More...
P Pluto in the 11th House
ELEVENTH HOUSE (House of hopes, wishes, and friends). PLUTO (planet of transformation) in the Eleventh House: the native is a powerful, life-giving force in the lives of the friends with whom they are closely connected. They are inclined toward reform and seek to improve any situation. They take their goals seriously and may even become obsessive about them. Strength: loyalty to friends. Weaknesses: they suffer deeply from separation and grieve intensely over the death of a friend.
Read more...
Pluto Aspects:
CHIRON
Chiron is a planetoid with the ability to intensify the energetic impulses of celestial bodies. By changing the characteristics of planets, it contributes to unexpected changes in the native’s life, much like Uranus. It should not be forgotten that Chiron symbolizes duality in different areas.
More...
M Chiron in the 12th House
Above all, Chiron’s gifts are duality and adaptability in the areas of life indicated by the main principles of that House of the horoscope. This person can skillfully, artfully, and deftly combine opposites. Their cunning, craftiness, and ability to find a way out of any situation are boundless.
Chiron in the Twelfth House strengthens the native’s passion for all kinds of mysteries and secrets, which may be connected with love, partnerships, or service. Fate often gives these people phenomenal or extrasensory abilities, an attraction to the occult sciences, and talents connected with the world of art. Secret activity is also possible here. Once again, the great power of persuasive self-expression appears: the power of suggestion, persuasion, and the ability to change another person’s mind. A rich fantasy, vivid imagination, duality, artistic and diplomatic abilities, telepathic gifts, unusual thinking and judgment, and unpredictable behavior all play a major role. Success comes through service in closed departments and institutions, intelligence and counterintelligence, closed research institutes, as well as work at classified plants, factories, laboratories, hospitals, and prisons.

Chiron Aspects:

The Houses provide information about how, where, and to what extent a person's characteristic traits will manifest, how their potential will be revealed, and how all of this will be realized in everyday life. Each House represents a specific sphere of human life. The Houses reflect a person's life in society, the kind of person life compels them to become, and show acquired skills, habits, methods, and goals that life sets before the person, as well as the ways through which they will move toward their goal.
1st HOUSE - g 14°
Strength: 86.86
Harmony: -18.07
1st House in Leo - Ruler of Sun
The First House is angular, which means it possesses qualities such as activity, initiative, and dynamism. It is the first of the Houses of life, and in this capacity, it represents the physical aspect of the personality — the body.
The First House in Leo requires the native to balance the contradiction between the desire to lead by demonstrating the strength of their personality and a tendency toward idle, lazy pastimes. It is impossible not to notice a person with the Ascendant in Leo. Generously endowed with charisma and fiery energy, they attract attention with a regal appearance and manner, presenting themselves as someone truly special so skillfully that those around them immediately believe it.
The Sun rules Leo, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the First House (Ascendant).
Read more...
2nd HOUSE - h 00°
Strength: 58.80
Harmony: -17.81
2nd House in Virgo - Ruler of Mercury
The Second House is the place of a person’s financial power. It shows the source of stable income from which the native can move toward the wealth of the Eighth sector, as well as find connections with their life purpose through the Tenth House, creating prosperity, well-being, and the happiness of public recognition. It is important to understand the ways of interacting with money, the nature of spending, and one’s own behavior in financial matters.
Prudent Virgo on the cusp of the Second House rarely leaves the native without a penny to their name, but they are not especially eager to chase mountains of gold either. The exception is a strongly emphasized Leo or Capricorn in the natal chart, especially if connected by aspects to the Second sector.
Mercury rules Virgo, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Second House.
Read more...
3rd HOUSE - h 21°
Strength: 23.35
Harmony: 4.79
3rd House in Virgo - Ruler of Mercury
The Third House is defined as the House of communication, the sphere in which a person feels the need to express their ideas, whether orally or in writing. As the House that signifies family ties, it primarily includes a person’s brothers and sisters, if they have any, and describes the nature of their relationship with them. In addition, it also points to relationships with other people in the immediate environment, such as neighbors, for example. But this is not all — it also indicates nearby, short-distance travel in the local area: by car, bus, train, or bicycle. The Third House belongs to the cadent Houses and indicates the ability of the native’s mind (Mercury) to learn, perceive different ideas, and adapt to various teachings; in practical terms, this means schooling and primary education.
If the Virgo sector and Mercury as its ruler are harmonious, the person will not miss a single small point or detail, making them a careful driver and a meticulous student, capable of analyzing a flow of information in seconds and producing a result.
Mercury rules Virgo, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Third House.
Read more...
4th HOUSE - j 22°
Strength: 248.38
Harmony: -29.86
4th House in Libra - Ruler of Venus
The Fourth House is connected with a person’s private life and the way they would like to arrange their home. This is also where the roots of their origin should be sought. It is the House of motherhood and childcare. It also describes property, housing, real estate, and similar matters. The Fourth House also points to the final years of life and the end of a person’s physical existence. From this perspective, the Eighth House is considered the House of spiritual transformation and liberation, while the Twelfth House is the House in which a person’s restless thoughts and agitated rational mind must be calmed.
Libra encourages the native to strive for nobility and justice, and most importantly, for beauty within their own space. Libra lacks confidence. Sometimes the mother becomes a source of support and protection, but if the relationship with her is far from ideal, especially if the Moon is in Virgo or Capricorn, socially accepted stereotypes of success become the guiding reference point.
Venus rules Libra, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Fourth House.
Read more...
5th HOUSE - l 04°
Strength: 22.58
Harmony: -0.56
5th House in Sagittarius - Ruler of Jupiter and Neptune
The Fifth House is a House of life that carries the fiery energy of inspiration and the power of motivation. The warmth of this fire extends to others as well. For this reason, this House is considered the House of love that a person gives to others. The love given in connection with this House is not the affection associated with Venus in astrology, nor the sexual instincts related to Mars, but love that comes from the heart — the very quality that is the main characteristic of Leo.
Sagittarius in the Fifth House, as the most balanced representative of the Fire element, fills the native with optimism, a cheerful nature, and ease in communication with children and the opposite sex.
The senior ruler Jupiter and the junior ruler Neptune rule Sagittarius, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the Fifth House.
Read more...
6th HOUSE - z 14°
Strength: 109.59
Harmony: -2.84
6th House in Capricorn - Ruler of Saturn and Uranus
The Sixth House is traditionally associated with work, health, and service. This House is still focused on the individual, on the “me.” It expresses a person’s attitude toward employment: whether they will do the work voluntarily or whether it will feel like a heavy burden. The Sixth House also indicates a person’s habits, established routine, occupation, general nutrition and, in particular, diet, as well as pets.
The Sixth House in Capricorn gives a serious and practical attitude toward work, the physical body, obligations to other people, and one’s own pets. An inner prohibition against using creative energy leads to stagnation in a small office and suffering caused by suppressed ambitious plans.
The senior ruler Saturn and the junior ruler Uranus rule Capricorn, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the Sixth House.
Read more...
7th HOUSE - x 14°
Strength: 169.16
Harmony: 2.51
7th House in Aquarius - Ruler of Uranus and Saturn
When describing the properties of the Seventh House as an angular House, it is customary to say that it manifests openly and through the public sphere. Traditionally, it is considered the House of relationships in all areas of life: love, friendship, cooperation, and even enmity. It shows what a person expects from contact with other people and how they express themselves in any union. The Seventh House teaches development through the close social circle, the ability to accept the successes of others, and the ability to learn missing qualities from enemies. The likelihood of marriage and divorce, as well as the personality of the spouse, can also be read through the planets and sign.
The Seventh House in Aquarius intensifies the need for freedom to such an extent that even after joining their loved one in marriage, the native will constantly be away from home, and without the opportunity to be alone, they will feel suffocated. The reason for this is a long-standing fear of losing independence, which needs to be worked through so they do not end up lonely closer to old age.
The senior ruler Uranus and the junior ruler Saturn rule Aquarius, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Seventh House.

8th HOUSE - c 00°
Strength: 23.70
Harmony: -1.31
8th House in Pisces - Ruler of Neptune and Jupiter
The key words for the Eighth House are usually considered to be “sex,” “death,” “big money,” and “personal transformation.” It is clear that sex can appear in several forms: as pure passion, as a force aimed at producing offspring, or as an expression of a deep feeling of love. Death also has several meanings and is not reduced only to the death of a specific human being. It can serve as a symbol of a certain idea, thought, undertaking, or even illness that disappears as a result of transformation.
The Eighth House in Pisces is an indicator of worked-through karma, when a person has learned to respond to sudden changes, illness, and the possession of wealth from the perspective of all zodiac signs. Thanks to this, the native’s greatest treasure is deep intuition, which helps them sense danger everywhere except in matters connected with water, illusions, alcohol, and psychotropic substances. Acutely experiencing injustice and understanding how everything works through many previous lives, the native seeks to escape reality into a world of dreams, which can lead to poisoning and addictions.
The senior ruler Neptune and the junior ruler Jupiter rule Pisces, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Eighth House.

Strength: 23.70

9th House in Pisces - Ruler of Neptune and Jupiter
The Ninth House gives life higher meaning, expands the worldview, and encourages the search for keys to knowledge. This is a place of good fortune, considering that its symbolic ruler is Jupiter, the planet of great happiness, as well as connections with a new world. This manifests through higher education, travel to other countries, business contacts with foreigners, the spouse’s relatives, and esoteric knowledge. All of this expands the boundaries of consciousness and opens new paths of development.
The Ninth House in Pisces means that the Midheaven Meridian most often falls in Aries, placing the person in a difficult position. Striving to study at a creative university, they are not always ready for a decisive assault on career heights, thinking that they will be looked after or that they will devote themselves to charity. The main force that drives them is the spiritual search for God and the idea of serving Him.

10th House in Aries - Ruler of Mars and Pluto
The Tenth House occupies the highest position in the horoscope, emphasizing the culminating nature of the corresponding area and pointing to the highest goal the person should strive to achieve. Therefore, the Tenth House indicates a possible profession, social position and reputation, as well as, in a broader sense, the true needs of the self. The key words for the Tenth House are social realization, recognition, success, fame, and renown.
The placement of the Tenth House in the zodiac sign Aries signals that from a young age the native admires energetic, assertive people and strives to develop bravery and courage within the soul. However, at a low level of development, they may become an egoist who tramples over others on the way to their goal.

11th House in Gemini - Ruler of Mercury
The Eleventh House of joy and favorable opportunities, friends, and social activity shows where unexpected luck comes from and how a person can make a profit during a rapidly developing career. However, its main meaning is friendship and participation in collective projects, where the individual shows themselves either as a leader or as an obedient cog in the machine, depending on the nature of the sign on the cusp.
The Eleventh House in Gemini attracts intellectual friends and many sources of information to the gifted native; at a lower level, it attracts gossipers, whom they skillfully manipulate.

12th House in Cancer - Ruler of Moon
The Twelfth House is the last in the Zodiac. Pisces is the symbolic sign, and Neptune is the symbolic ruler of the Twelfth House. Since Neptune is the planet of delusion and enlightenment, spiritual impulse and the desire to overcome the inertia of the physical world, it can be assumed that the Twelfth House is connected with a certain mystery. Pisces is sensitive and intuitive, inclined toward compassion and self-sacrifice — all of this largely defines the nature of the Twelfth House.
In a psychological sense, this is the native’s subconscious, inner world, largely hidden even from themselves, where all the joys and sorrows experienced since birth are immersed. Whether the native wants to look into their inner self and work with it depends entirely on them and on the decision they make. Some people expect the horoscope to make life easier, while others would like to use it in order to seriously understand themselves. The choice here depends on whether the person wants to consciously explore their inner world or is content for it to remain unknown. It is the Twelfth House that gives the opportunity to find one’s true self, gain faith, and receive inspiration.
The Twelfth House in Cancer makes the native overly sensitive, sometimes so much so that they shut away their empathic gift because feeling injustice and betrayal is too painful. If the Moon, the ruler of Cancer, is afflicted, the horoscope holder may spend their entire life in emotional confinement, feeling lonely even in moments of intimate closeness.
The Moon rules Cancer, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Twelfth House.

Karmic indicators help a person become aware of deep-rooted problems that go back to past lives, and begin working on themselves in order to overcome them and improve both this life and, potentially, the next one. Karmic problems should not be understood as punishment for misdeeds and sins, as karma is usually interpreted in the everyday sense. Karma is not retribution, but rather inertia, when a person attracts similar situations from one life to another. From a karmic point of view, every element of the natal chart can be interpreted without exception. However, the most important indicators of karma in the horoscope are retrograde planets, if any, and the Lunar Nodes.
Retrograde Planets
Retrograde planets are always connected with turning back to the past. The more retrograde planets a person has in the horoscope, the stronger their connection with the past. A retrograde planet also points to an unresolved task from a past life, unfinished business, or unrealized abilities. It forces the person to take up again what could not be completed in the past. The symbol used in the table is R.
Retrograde Mercury — Individuality
When Mercury is retrograde in the horoscope, the individual’s conscious mind is able to intercept ideas from the universal consciousness of earlier times. Usually, they are not aware of this, but they are aware that they cannot easily make others understand everything they know. This is partly connected with the inversion of the Mercury symbol, in which the significance of Matter exceeds the significance of Spirit and Soul. This makes the individual concerned with the form of their ideas. And this acts as a barrier to the essence of their knowledge.
In addition, the wavelength of their mind differs slightly from what is accepted in society. Thought processes tend to repeat themselves like an endless recording, and as a result, most of the things they create are, in one form or another, copies of what they have already done. When they speak, it is difficult for them to project the exact telepathic pictures that convey the meanings of their thoughts. Thus, they often feel misunderstood and wonder why others do not always see things the same way they do.
They see themselves as more separate from society than a person with Mercury in direct motion may be. As a result, they desperately try to develop contacts with other people, overemphasizing their ideas until they begin to irritate those around them. Feeling constrained in company, they make great efforts to win the favor of others. Nevertheless, at the slightest hint of rejection, they may give up too easily. Ultimately, they learn that in order to have self-confidence, they must become more detached and impartial than people with Mercury in direct motion. This is often interpreted by others as “coldness,” but it is simply the vibration of retrograde Mercury, which is so obviously disharmonious with the vibrations of direct motion. Behind the apparent wall, this individual is far more sensitive than most people can imagine.
Once the communication barrier has been crossed, tremendous understanding and intuition emanate from retrograde Mercury. The retrograde individual does not fit into the ideas and opinions of the people around them. Instead, they can find peace in gratitude for their unique way of seeing things.
It is interesting to note that many people with musical talent have retrograde Mercury. Perhaps awareness of difficulties with spoken language led them to another form of communication, one that has much greater freedom and many levels of subtle mental and emotional expression.
Retrograde Mercury — Karma
A person with retrograde Mercury must experience unresolved relationship karma. They react to others as if those people symbolize figures from their past. Thus, it is difficult for them to keep the focus of their consciousness on the “here and now.” Usually, this manifests as difficulties with family and relatives. But the issue of relationships extends beyond communication with other people and includes the perception of the universe as a whole. There is often a problem characteristic of retrograde Mercury in terms of seeing what may be called an inverted reality. The individual has difficulty understanding the basic relationship between cause and effect. They explore the essence of life itself, yet often cannot see the simple connections between things, circumstances, and people. Lost in thoughts that lie beyond their understanding, they must learn to be content with the simple things on which life is based. They are so absorbed in uncovering what is beyond their understanding that they almost always miss the obvious.
From a karmic point of view, this individual must learn to focus attention on the reality of the present rather than lose themselves in all the apparent layers they perceive. When they are able to do this, they will be able to establish a solid point of reference in the “here and now,” through which all the discoveries they make can be expressed to the outer world.
Retrograde Mercury in Aquarius
This is one of the best positions for retrograde Mercury. The Uranian air quality of Aquarius gives Mercury enough space to comfortably experience the three-phase retrograde process through different dimensions of time and space. In Phase I, the individual feels happy leaping into the future, but does not want to spread into other people’s space. In Phase III, they are happy because they do not violate other people’s space, and they are glad to explore the past again in order to unearth extraordinary discoveries that will be useful at another future moment in time. In the cross-vibration of Phase II, the individual experiences a brief rest from research, but may be happy helping others. In all three phases, there is something for retrograde Mercury in Aquarius, which makes the individual so remarkably unique and original.
Although it may seem that they do not always have common sense, and at times show less stability than others would like to see in them, they have an enormous range of ideas that they draw from the most unusual places. Society usually fails to notice these ideas. They may take a concept as old as the world, change it slightly, and it may not be accepted for a millennium after they have proposed it. Their mental energies tend to flutter rather than hold a definite focus for a long period of time, and they may discuss a wide variety of topics in a single conversation. Although it may not seem that they are proving any point, they nevertheless prove that point in the strangest way. Others will understand them better days, weeks, or months after communicating with them than at the moment of conversation. They often bring with them from a past life into the present time — into a time when the world may be more ready to accept their ideas — the necessary details for remarkable inventions.
Retrograde Mercury in the Sixth House
Here, Mercury falls in the House it rules. The mutable qualities of the Sixth House combine with Mercury’s natural flexibility to give the individual a sharp analytical approach to organizing their life.
Although they feel a certain degree of comfort in all three retrograde phases, they still have difficulty getting along with other people, especially in work situations. During Phase I, they often try to impress their ideas upon others, whereas in Phase III, they go back in time in order to critically analyze how well those ideas were carried out. Other people’s reactions to them make them very nervous. Thinking that people expect something from them, they feel obligated to them. In order to organize their work habits, they must understand the final result and return to the initial steps that will lead them where they intend to go.
They may be overly critical of themselves and spend a great deal of time wondering whether to continue evaluating and judging their inner existence or to focus their mental energy outward in an attempt to overcome their shortcomings through service to others. However, there are periods when others reject their service. Thus, they experience disappointment in their relationships with people.
They are much better at organizing things than people. One of their greatest difficulties is that they “harness” their life to self-imposed limitations. Sometimes they accept responsibility they think they should not have accepted; at other times, they rush away from what they think they should do. They bring into their life the karma of discrimination, through which they constantly try to make all things and people fit into their preconceived order of the universe.
They are an excellent worker, especially in areas that involve following a procedure created in the past. They must become more tolerant of the human factor so that their high ideals of order and perfection do not lead them into negativity toward the people they work with and the society in which they live. One day, they must see that they judge themselves according to their ideals, and others according to their actions.
Retrograde Saturn - Individuality
A native with retrograde Saturn takes very seriously the completion of everything they left unfinished in the past. They tend to go back in order to fill any gaps in what they once too hastily considered complete. Essentially, they are thoughtful and balanced. At times, they may seem overly cautious or too frugal, but any restraint on their part is entirely based on their need to preserve substance for important use. They consider excessive spending or wastefulness harmful, because they experienced this in past lives. Now they deeply value everything they learn or receive. Often, they feel an inner duty to God, which manifests as a powerful sense of gratitude for everything they see around them.
They try to teach other people who are less knowledgeable or experienced than they are. However, this is unsuccessful if those people have not experienced the native’s “fall from grace” in a past life and the great struggle that has now earned them the way back. As a result, retrograde Saturn carries an “inborn” maturity that cannot be achieved without great personal struggle and sacrifice.
Retrograde Saturn - Karma
Retrograde Saturn always indicates ongoing karma from past incarnations. Whatever the lesson may be, the native is unusually slow in bringing it to completion. Therefore, in this life, they must carry an additional burden from a past life within their soul. When the two lives finally come together, their true mission should become clear to them. Much of what they do in this life is a repetition of what their Saturn already stands for. But now they are faced with circumstances and situations that are somewhat different. The retrograde action of the planet may make them feel a restraining force, especially if they try to escape the weight of its lesson. But if they follow it, understanding that its patient guidance is slowly leading them toward identification with something higher than they could have imagined, then through this planet they can come to appreciate the workings of a beautiful divine universe.
Saturn is the person’s teacher, and when it is retrograde, it means the native experienced similar training before this life. Over the course of life, retrograde Saturn provides a tremendous amount of wisdom.
For Saturn, the retrograde position is the most natural and comfortable one, because it gives the native something like a second chance to refine the relationship formed between their soul, the circumstances they encountered in a past incarnation, and the way those circumstances were understood. Now, under Saturn’s calm guidance, the person can give form to everything they learned in the past.
Retrograde Saturn in Virgo
This placement indicates a person who is trying to reach their past ideals. They constantly examine themselves in order to evaluate how worthy their life is of the one they believe they should be living. Although they may seem overly concerned with the details that form the structure of their life, ultimately it is through these very details that they can create a carefully ordered universe that makes sense to them. They view the world through separate parts and then try to fit these parts into what they have formed within themselves from the past. In this way, they inwardly absorb what they consider to be precise segments from the outer world, and then build their structured life from these segments.
They think that in order to know themselves, they must understand the workings of everything that touches their life. The main problem is that, because of Saturn’s retrograde nature, they unintentionally preprogram their perception of things so that those things can fit into their ready-made concepts. This makes them very inflexible and seems to reduce Virgo’s mutability. In their work, they can be unusually efficient, especially when they know that other people rely on them for order and effectiveness.
Karmically, this native is compelled to live in the idealized world they would like to see around them. When they understand how unrealistic some of their expectations are, they may become more comfortable in the existing world. Then the perfection that already exists becomes obvious to them. Because it is very important for them to observe the lives of other people, which is characteristic of this placement, the native passes through Phase Three of the retrograde process before actively expressing themselves in Phases One and Two.
Retrograde Saturn in the Second House
Here the native is learning karmic lessons connected with possession and ownership. In previous lives, they crystallized everything that was valuable to them, and now they are trying to apply these values once again to their current situation. Spending most of their time in Phase Three of the retrograde process, they continue gathering everything that past security once offered them. As a result, they strongly resist change. They observe the world from some place in the past where they once felt comfortable. Essentially, they stubbornly continue accumulating everything that holds them back. The problem is that they do not really understand how their values fit into the world they now see around them. There is a barrier between what they feel and what they are able to live by, and this may actually push them away from everything they want.
If Venus is not very well placed in the chart, this Saturn placement may block the expression of love. Every time the native tries to give their love to another person, a question concerning their values arises before them. They always sense that something is wrong, but it is difficult for them to identify exactly what it is. Usually, this is caused by guilt over the way they treated people according to those people’s relationship with material things.
They will reach happiness the moment they clearly realize how unfair they have been to themselves in the past.
Retrograde Uranus - Individuality
A person with retrograde Uranus reveals a rather unique individuality.
At the deepest levels, they are a rebel against everything that binds them. If the person is timid, they may experience claustrophobia. If they are fearless, they will try to overturn everything they believe has outlived its usefulness. They cannot be satisfied with simply moving through life, because they see too many things that could enrich humanity if only society would shake off all its false anchors of security.
They become uneasy if other people respond to them too favorably, because then they feel they have lost a significant part of themselves. Therefore, from time to time, they will lose friends and acquaintances, sometimes jobs and romantic attachments, all because other people often find it too difficult to accept the unusual nature of their ideas. Yet years later, when society begins to defend everything they once stood for, they will no longer be interested in all the progressive theories or positions they promoted in their time. In this way, they are very much a herald of the future. Because of this, they may experience loneliness, but they would never give up their gift of originality for the company of other people. They know that, above all, their Soul must be free. Anything that obstructs this freedom, they will sweep out of their path.
For those who are able to understand them, they are a most fascinating conversationalist, because they are literally filled with all the ideas humanity needs for the future of the human race.
Retrograde Uranus - Karma
On a personal level, retrograde Uranus creates disorder in human relationships. The native experiences an inner changeability that often makes them hypocritical toward themselves. Their mental and emotional levels often struggle with each other, so they may know certain things that should lead them in the direction indicated by their knowledge, while at the same time feeling other things that may lead them in an entirely different direction.
They are living through the karma of learning how to express the inner freedom they bring into this life. And they must not be bound by attempts to explain the meaning of everything all the time, either to others or even to themselves. A free spirit does not always appear to make sense. The fact is that the logical extension of common sense in a person is more of a Saturnian trait, connected with the rigidity of order, discipline, and directing oneself toward specific goals. But the native with retrograde Uranus is not living through that kind of karma.
In order to explore their inner existence, as well as many other realms of understanding that humanity as a whole has not yet reached, they follow a long and winding path in search of the formulas that make the world work. Nevertheless, they know that their search is an endless process, because every new discovery leads to yet another question. They can be extremely happy as long as others do not try to force them into patterns of thought and behavior whose limits they have already crossed, because of the meaninglessness of the roles those patterns play in their perception of the greater design.
They learned how to be independent in previous incarnations, and now they must use that independence to rediscover and understand the reason they originally wanted it.
Retrograde Uranus in Libra
Here the native experiences all three phases of the retrograde process. Their life is strongly controlled by the lack of balance they perceive in the people around them. They seek peace and quiet, but in reality it would bore them. Nevertheless, when they experience too much excitement, they long for calm. In order to find balance between these two tendencies, they move from one person to another, often working through other people’s karma because they are uncertain of their own. Decision-making is difficult for them. They would prefer someone else to decide for them, because they do not want to take responsibility and determine the direction of their life according to their own will. Thus, they may waver like leaves in the wind according to the values and ideas of the people with whom they are involved. Through all of this, they try to preserve a sense of independence, which results in a kind of impartial honesty toward everyone they know. It truly bothers them when situations or circumstances force them to take someone’s side in any disputed matter.
They are able to see themselves through the eyes of others. Unfortunately, this is not the same as seeing themselves through their own eyes. Thus, the final balance they achieve is based more on what they perceive outside themselves than on what they can attain within themselves.
Always being between people with different ideas, positions, and patterns of behavior, they try to maintain their balance without overturning the values of those they love.
They are the karmic chameleon of the Zodiac. Wanting to be constantly useful to everyone who needs them, they must not become too attached to any particular values of their own. But they must give love and the awareness they have learned to anyone who needs it.
Retrograde Uranus in the Fourth House
With this placement, the native experiences strong emotional disorder. They want to break away from their symbolic “birthright,” whether this is the religion in which they were raised, the moral or ethical values they were taught, or the personal qualities of their parents. The more they focus their inner thoughts on these things, the more they continue to set the original conflict vibrating. They seek individuality, but only within the framework of some family structure or organizational boundaries, in order to prove to whatever binds them that they are truly free. Thus, they live under the illusion of freedom within prison walls they have created for themselves.
They spend a great deal of time in Phase Three of the retrograde process, during which they review everything they have already experienced. On the emotional level, their concept of time differs quite strongly from chronological reality. Even when they occasionally experience Phase One, they leap out of their protective shell only to look back and make sure that their womb is still following them.
Karmically, they experience much self-doubt combined with moments of extreme self-confidence. As they move through life, they fluctuate between one and the other, trying to find a place where they hope they will feel emotionally comfortable. Until they are absolutely sure where they are, they cling tightly to the chains they claim to be throwing off.
Retrograde Neptune - Individuality
The individuality of a person with retrograde Neptune is not easy for others to understand. Their motives do not contain the common sense that anyone might expect to find at the root of all motivations. Instead, they are attuned to a higher music that only they can hear. Their perceptions do not come from the material plane; they are a direct connection with their Soul. Thus, they may be very spiritual, but they care little for the formal side of orthodox religion. They may have a great love of music, but cannot be assigned to any particular artificial structure within it. They feel almost everything, but they connect their feelings with physical reality far less than with the perception of the cosmic universe. They know far more than they can even express in words, and here again they recognize the limiting qualities of language, which is merely another formed boundary that can enclose their boundless understanding. They are able to understand the appearances and illusions in which others live, and therefore must try to strike the best possible bargain: not to knock down other people’s sand castles, while still preserving all the inner truths they know.
Retrograde Neptune - Karma
The native with retrograde Neptune is living through the karma of learning how to sort out what is real from the standpoint of their ideals and what only appears to fulfill their dreams. They know what they need, but it is difficult for them to find it in the outer world. Constantly living through dreams, they often get carried away, running from imaginary shadows while chasing unrealistic fantasies. Nevertheless, they must find their ideals in the “formless” world that strongly influences them. They sometimes make the mistake of projecting past dreams into present situations. This prevents them from clearly seeing the reality of the present. They are highly intuitive and, through the various retrograde phases, are often able to know the outcome of situations long before they enter them. But until they learn how to handle the subtle flow of Neptunian energy they feel within themselves, they will not easily trust their intuition.
The native must learn how to blend their feelings with the ideals and dreams they bring into this life. Instead of trying to distort perception in order to make the present conform to the past, the person must realize which parts of the present truly symbolize the karmically unfinished parts of the past.
Retrograde Neptune in the Tenth House
Here retrograde Neptune finds itself in a difficult position. The native’s personal need for direction in life is constantly dissolved by the formlessness of the cosmic reality they reach. They often feel confused about their goals, because they sense the boundless design of the world and find it difficult to oppose anything to it. Essentially, they may have tremendous insight, but their drive is weakened by their noncompetitive nature.
They can be very creative and should be involved in work where inspiration and visionary qualities are needed. If the sign on the cusp of the Tenth House is negative, the native spends a great deal of time in Phase Three of the retrograde process, where they not only absorb the ideals of their peers, but also experience timidity when faced with public situations. The person makes their way through the karma of learning how to be impartial in their career and not identify with status or social position. When they learn this, they can be highly intuitive and prophetic, experiencing great public success precisely because they do not strive for it.
Perhaps the simplest way for them to reach a true understanding of their feelings is to realize that the one who wins the “rat race” has merely proved that they are the biggest rat!
Retrograde Pluto - Individuality
The native with retrograde Pluto perceives the troubles of society as a personal reason to transform themselves. They know they cannot change the world, although they would like to do so if it were possible. But they can change the world within themselves by severing ties with everything that has bound them to their unpurified existence. This process takes many years, and sometimes many lifetimes are required to achieve it. In its highest manifestation, it represents true Christ consciousness, bringing the purest form of love to earth.
On a smaller scale and at a more ordinary level, they constantly remove from their life all those factors that hinder the progress of their Soul and the expression of their Spirit.
The native with retrograde Pluto experiences humanity’s struggle as a very personal struggle within themselves. They personally feel the need to overcome within themselves everything that lowers the consciousness of the society in which they live. Therefore, they perceive other people’s dishonesty toward themselves as a personal insult and a challenge to the forward movement they feel they must make for the ultimate good of the civilization of which they are an important part. They must learn to become a little more detached from the habitual patterns and behavioral characteristics of people whose lives have so little in common with their own true inner reality.
Retrograde Pluto - Karma
The native with retrograde Pluto is living through the karma of coming to know mass consciousness within themselves. They feel the impact of world thought and are aware of how it is connected with world thought throughout the centuries. Not always expressing outwardly what they know, they tend to view other people more as part of a greater whole than by relating to them one-on-one. In personal life, what they do is far less important than what they think about what they do. They live much of the time in their consciousness, sifting through a vast multitude of feelings.
The spiritual growth possible with retrograde Pluto is limited only by the native’s conscious mind. They can rise above a significant part of the karma of the entire human race if they choose to. Interestingly enough, if they try to avoid elevating their karma, they will in one way or another feel the lower karmas of the people around them. Thus, if they decide to rise above it, they can truly begin to live the teaching of Jesus: “to be in this world, but not of this world.” In order to ultimately achieve this, they temporarily withdraw from society during the first half of life until they learn to relate impartially to the energy of the world that they feel outside themselves. In the end, they reach a point where they no longer feel the action of this energy within themselves.
Retrograde Pluto in the Eleventh House
Here Pluto finds its most idealistic placement, because the native wants the best for themselves, for their friends, and for the world in which they live. Usually this creates great disorder, because they see an enormous gap between their ideal nature and the actual state of things.
Thus, they may act as a rebel trying to reduce this gap by literally destroying everything they regard as completely meaningless. Often they appoint themselves the conscience of their friends. Although this is motivated by a very spiritual desire, it often creates great friction.
Much of their life is viewed from the standpoint of a spectator, and the creative processes may be seriously hindered, because the native may question the meaning of things more than personally participate in them. The native takes their friendships quite seriously and personally identifies with their successes and failures. This placement usually manifests through Phase Three of the retrograde process, in which the inner absorption of past awareness moves the native to a point where they can inspire others, so that through them, almost through their hands, they can achieve their own goals, dreams, and aspirations.
Karmically, this native may be an escapist themselves, but it will trouble them if they allow their friends or the world to follow the same path. They withdraw from reality in order to transform it and can be very useful to other people without being personally attached to the world.
LUNAR NODES
Lunar Nodes symbolize the axis of development. The South Node indicates the experience a person has accumulated in past lives, while the North Node shows the experience the person needs to acquire in the current life.
North Node in Cancer, South Node in Capricorn
The North Node in Cancer indicates that in the current incarnation, the native needs to direct their energy toward creating a family, a cozy home, and a solid foundation. The native’s mission may involve upholding family values, serving the homeland, and expressing love for their country.
A person with the South Node in Capricorn should not devote their life to work and the fulfillment of high ambitions. They should not distance themselves from others, limiting themselves only to dry, businesslike relationships. By showing gentleness, kindness, and care for people, the person will be able to fully realize their karmic tasks. In work and in life, they will be helped by intuition and the ability to perceive everything happening around them with childlike emotional sensitivity. A person who does not confine themselves within strict instructions and rigid plans, who acts spontaneously and trusts the world, will be acting in accordance with their karmic purpose.

North Node in the Eleventh House - South Node in the Fifth House. Karma of the Higher Goal
The North Node in the Eleventh House of the horoscope indicates that the person should devote a great deal of time to their friends and to participation in collective work. An active social life will be the most correct way to resolve their karmic tasks. If the native follows the path of the South Node, located in the Fifth House, they may encounter difficulties with self-expression and creativity. Relationships with children may develop with difficulty, and hobbies may be short-lived and bring little joy.
The correctly chosen path will bring the native pleasant surprises and discoveries, monetary gifts, unexpected patronage, help, and the generosity of friends.

Lunar Node Aspects:
SELENA
In addition to the North Node, the path of karmic advancement and the application of innate talents is shown by the White Moon, also called Selena or Lulu. This is a fictitious point that reflects the light karma accumulated by the native in a past life, or by their ancestors over several generations. The place where the guardian angel’s sign is located shows the area in which the native has accumulated the greatest number of good deeds. This is where the starry road to success and prosperity now shines, provided the higher qualities of the sign where the White Moon is located are developed and expressed.
Selena (White Moon) in Pisces
Selena in Pisces indicates a mature soul completing the cycle of reincarnations, but the pull of criminal temptations, through which it is easy to fall downward, will also be strong. Crystal purity of thoughts, faith, and willpower will be required in order to resist the dark forces.
For this reason, from childhood the guardian angel awakens compassion and mercy in the soul of the person with the White Moon in Pisces, sometimes deliberately attracting painful situations and difficult circumstances. In this incarnation, the Higher Powers will keep evil people, alcohol and drugs, and fanatics away from them, but there is a danger of misinterpreting good intentions, which may lead into the underworld. It is necessary to constantly listen to the inner voice so as not to mistake evil in white robes for the light of truth.

Selena in the 8th House
Now the White Moon in the Eighth House shows that angelic protection will be with the native in the most difficult and dangerous situations, allowing them to emerge safe and unharmed from the murky waters of other people’s schemes, and even from beneath the rubble after earthquakes. Challenging aspects indicate that karma has not been fully worked through: a thirst for heroic deeds draws the native toward danger, but whether they can hear the guidance from above and open their soul and mind to the wisdom of the Higher Powers depends on their understanding of Selena’s essence.
Astrologers believe that in previous incarnations, a person with Selena in the Eighth House heroically saved people during war and natural disasters, risking their own life, and therefore now, in the first half of life, no danger threatens them.

LILITH
Lilith is considered a demon-temptress, but it is often not understood that at the highest level of consciousness development, she ceases to be a source of danger and, on the contrary, strengthens a person’s talents according to the sign and house in which she is placed.
For this reason, it is very important to bring one’s Lilith out of darkness and into the light. Then the courage for new exploration can manifest on a positive, creative level. This is a fictitious point in the horoscope, not a planet, but its power is often underestimated, while working through it is often considered impossible. However, the right actions and symbolism can work wonders.
Lilith shows the bottom, the darkest side of the person: the dark pit into which the native may fall if they give in to the temptation of lower vibrations and follow the path marked by Lilith. This should be kept in mind when reading a horoscope.
Lilith (Black Moon) in Cancer
Sensuality here may awaken at an early age, or it may emerge later in life, and it may express itself through an extremely active sex life. The rich imagination and wild erotic fantasy of these people strongly influence their sexual activity: either intensifying it or weakening it, enriching it or impoverishing it, or simply distorting it. The Oedipus complex often manifests here, so under no circumstances should the person betray their partner, children, mother, or another woman close to the home. With this position of Lilith, they should honor not only their parents, but also their homeland, the traditions of their ancestors, and their family line. It is considered together with the positions of the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto, and the Fourth House of the horoscope.

Lilith in the 12th House
In a previous life, the person enchanted and seduced everyone with their charms, tempted them, suppressed their will, used occult knowledge, and drew upon the forces of black magic. Those who did not yield to them or submit to their will were driven to a psychiatric hospital or to prison. This Karma is one of the heaviest, and the Twelfth House is the worst place for Lilith, because it is here that her fatality works at full power. Lilith, being the Demon’s closest assistant in sexual matters, participates in all bargains involving the sale of a human soul to Satan. If the person manages to avoid this bargain, the swamp of alcoholism, drug addiction, and other “pleasures” of the lower depths of life lies in wait for them. There is, of course, a possibility of avoiding this, but only through complete self-restraint, self-renunciation, and self-sacrifice. A fatal connection is indicated with a person whose planet forms a conjunction or some strong aspect with the native’s Lilith.

Lilith Aspects:
PART OF FORTUNE

The Part of Fortune represents the path on which a person can achieve the greatest joy and fulfillment. It then becomes obvious that the Part of Fortune has much to do with how well a person meets and overcomes their negative karma, while at the same time creating and accepting the rewards of their positive karma.
The Part of Fortune, like the planet Jupiter, promises abundance. However, it encompasses a significantly larger part of a person’s existence than any specific planet. The Part of Fortune attunes the individual to the environment in which prosperity will be most natural for them, and determines for each person what their unique and special concept of success will be. It also shows the person’s strongest need, defining the keynote to which their entire being resonates.
Part of Fortune in Aries
The Part of Fortune in Aries brings success in all matters indicated by the essential nature of the sign Aries. The stimulus for success is healthy pride, remarkable self-confidence, restlessness of spirit, a scientific way of thinking, logical reasoning, as well as decisiveness, emotional and physical vitality, spiritedness, ambition, courage, bravery, perseverance, persistence, initiative, enterprise, great drive, optimism, enthusiasm, a desire for outward activity, headlong Martian energy, nobility, generosity, goodwill, and magnanimity.
Here, the Part of Fortune brings income from service in the army, security and law enforcement agencies, and from professions connected with fire and hot shops, iron and metals, medicine, especially surgery, or animal meat. Success is also promised in public service, political or social activity, and scientific research. Administrative activity and sports disciplines are indicated. However, in all these matters, caution should be exercised during periods when the transiting Sun and Mars are in conjunction, opposition, or square with each other or with other malefic planets. If the Sun and Mars form these malefic aspects in the Radix, Martian professions should not be chosen.
If afflicted, one must take into account the negative traits of the individual, which will adversely affect their activity. Here, they will have to reckon with quick irritability, excitability, hot temper, and impulsiveness. Haste, rashness in decisions and actions, impatience, unbridled passions, anger, aggression, militancy, a tendency toward violence, and sensuality in the form of despotism and tyranny play a major negative role.
Historical figures with the Part of Fortune in Aries: George Washington, Francis Bacon, Isaac Newton, Frédéric Chopin, Louis Pasteur, Clara Barton, Albert Einstein.

Part of Fortune in the Ninth House
The Part of Fortune in the Ninth House supports the individual’s spiritual growth and increases their intellectual potential. Income depends on the person’s intellectual level. If it is high, the main income can be expected from scientific work, intellectual activity, publishing or teaching, philosophy, and religious fields. Long-distance trips, business travel, extended educational journeys, and scientific expeditions also play a major role in life.
Activity connected with international organizations and enterprises may be successful. If the person is endowed with phenomenal abilities, such as the gift of foresight, prediction, or prophetic dreams, then these may bring the main and considerable income. This Part of Fortune supports the achievement of a high social level and a good material position, both on the worldly plane and in the spiritual hierarchy. Success is promised in all matters connected with higher education and pedagogical activity, mass cultural events, legal and public activity, and connections with foreign countries and foreigners.

VERTEX
In the western hemisphere of every natal chart, a very important point can be found: the Vertex. It is compared to a handle on the gates of fate, which must be turned so that the doors open and allow the native into a new dimension. This is not just a point, but the peak of a sensitive axis in the horoscope, along which the electric current of karma flows. The Vertex is also called the electric Ascendant. It is activated unexpectedly during truly emotional periods of life.
The sign where this turning point of fate is located is at once an arena of passions, the scenery of the circumstances offered by life, and a clue to what exactly the native should develop within themselves. The aspects of the Vertex show talents and skills that are already present from the beginning, helping the native correspond to the scenario proposed by fate. These are magical tools that help the person pass through trials with honor and gain positive new experience in the houses where the Vertex is placed. More...
Strength Concentration (Astrodynes)
This section examines the concentration of energy in the natal chart: which signs, planets, and houses contain the main strength. Everyone knows the Sun zodiac sign, but when the signs are viewed through the prism of the natal chart, it becomes clear how energy is distributed between the two strongest signs, and the Sun sign is not always dominant.
The signs give an idea of natural, instinctive motivations, such as likes and dislikes, attitudes, and reactions, and make it possible to judge whether a calling is present. The two strongest signs are shown in the table below. For more details about the distribution of strength in the natal chart, see the “Astrodynes” section: link to the Astrodynes chart.
| Sign | Strength |
|---|---|
| x Aquarius | 215 |
| j Libra | 178 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (12 Signs) | 1031 |
Now the planets that concentrate the main energy in the chart can be identified. The planet with the greatest number of “astrodynes” is considered the strongest planet in the chart, since it reflects the most powerful energetic potential. Why are strong planets so important? The most powerful planets in the table indicate potential that can easily be transformed into abilities. This is where the person can succeed and achieve the best results.
| Planet | Strength |
|---|---|
| Q Sun | 77 |
| W Moon | 74 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Planets) | 680 |
By the same principle, the strongest houses emphasize the environment or sphere of life where it is easier for a person to practice and develop their skills.
| House | Strength |
|---|---|
| Fourth House | 248 |
| Seventh House | 169 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Houses) | 1031 |
