Elizabeth Banks - 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: 52.77
Harmony: 3.40
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 6th House
SIXTH HOUSE (House of service and health). SUN (planet of vital energy and individuality) in the Sixth House: the native takes pride in their work and has organizational talent. They need recognition from others. Their health is likely to be fairly good, and they recover their strength quickly, although they may be prone to rare but troublesome illnesses. Strength: they solve problems effectively. Weakness: they can be fussy and difficult to work with.
Read more...
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: 46.81
Harmony: -19.60
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 Virgo h 14° - Ruler Mercury
Virgo is ruled by Mercury, and this ruler gives the sign a tendency toward analysis. Typical representatives of the sign pay great attention to small things and details; they are attentive and diligent. Taken too far, however, this can make them unbearable pedants and nitpickers.
People born with Virgo Rising are usually practical, analytical, discerning, picky, cautious, demanding, detail-oriented, methodical, modest, shy, critical, sensible, and somewhat self-centered. They have a brilliant, active, and receptive mind. Acquiring knowledge and directing it properly toward the best possible result is very important to them. They strive for perfection, although very few people could live with them or remain close to them, because their standards for themselves and others are rather high. It is important to understand that others cannot always meet those high standards. Finding fault with people and things is their specialty. Sometimes this can even damage relationships if they constantly criticize their partner and what that person does. Pessimism and self-criticism are two negative traits they should try to overcome. They may worry too often, especially over minor and insignificant things, and this can affect their health.
They need to learn to digest every experience and accept it without bitterness, regret, anger, or resentment. They need to release any negativity caused by feelings of inferiority. They tend to look younger than their age, regardless of how old they are.
The main lesson to learn: learn to interact with people.
Mercury rules Virgo, so Mercury is important when interpreting the natal chart. Read more...
Ascendant Aspects:
MIDHEAVEN (MC)
Strength: 66.82
Harmony: -25.98

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 Gemini d 11° - Ruler Mercury
Ruler: Mercury. When the MC is in Gemini, diverse interests and inclinations come strongly to the surface. There is a desire to take in everything at once. The abundance of abilities and desires creates instability both socially and professionally, with periods of rise alternating with periods of decline. Rarely does a person with this Midheaven placement remain faithful to one profession throughout life, just as they rarely stay with one chosen job. At first, they spend a long time searching for themselves professionally and cannot choose work that truly appeals to them; even after finally choosing it, they may quickly change both profession and job.
Usually, the person masters several professions, but rarely has an academic education; more often, they are self-taught. They may hold several positions or combine one job with another. Or they may use knowledge from different scientific fields in their work. Usually, the person is not fully satisfied with their work, their results, their subordinates, coworkers, or superiors. Scattered interests, dispersed energy, and indecision become the main causes of failure in the sphere of profession and work. One may also add problems created by love affairs and workplace intrigues. Read more...
Midheaven Aspects:
MOON
Strength: 30.75
Harmony: 14.54
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 16°
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 2nd House
SECOND HOUSE (House of property). MOON (planet of emotions and instincts) in the Second House: the native is able to earn money creatively, using their imagination and the broad public — they sell goods to people, perform before them, and so on. Their financial situation fluctuates and is often unstable. Sometimes they are frugal, and sometimes they are wasteful. Strengths: persistence and financial instinct, desire for security, and ability to plan for the future. Weaknesses: greed, extravagance, impulsiveness in spending money.
Read more...
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: 36.95
Harmony: -23.37
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 Pisces c 09°
For people born with Mercury in Pisces, thoughts and communication tend to be idealistic, spiritual, intuitive, creative, responsive, diplomatic, extremely sensitive, compassionate, and far-sighted. On the other hand, they may be lazy, impractical, and prone to having their head in the clouds.
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: 41.25
Harmony: -0.30
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 Capricorn z 25°
People born with Venus in Capricorn express love and affection thoughtfully, carefully, and with complete seriousness. They do not display these feelings openly. They are deeply concerned with what others will think of them.
Read more...
R Venus in the 5th House
FIFTH HOUSE (House of creation and sex). VENUS (planet of love and pleasure) in the Fifth House: the native loves social life and the attention of others. They attract people to themselves and usually have many lovers. Creative work brings them pleasure, and they are tender with children. Strength: they achieve success in the entertainment industry. Weaknesses: self-indulgence and excessive love of applause.
Read more...
Venus Aspects:
MARS
Strength: 33.43
Harmony: -9.02
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 Taurus s 21°
Once people born with Mars in Taurus get something into their head, they pursue the goal with complete dedication, determination, and remarkable commitment.
Read more...
T Mars in the 9th House
NINTH HOUSE (House of exploration and education). MARS (planet of energy and self-assertion) in the Ninth House: the native is intellectually independent, unafraid of change, and fond of travel and adventure. They are ready to fight for their beliefs. They seek new experiences because they want to live life fully. Strength: they may achieve honors or wealth through higher education. Weakness: they can be stubborn and fanatical about their ideas.
Read more...
Mars Aspects:
JUPITER
Strength: 47.84
Harmony: 29.11
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 Aquarius x 23°
People born with Jupiter under the sign of Aquarius are humanitarian-minded and care about the welfare of all people. They believe in the universality of life and the brotherhood of humankind.
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: 44.17
Harmony: 10.97
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 Gemini d 28°
The thinking of people born with Saturn in Gemini is focused and serious, while organizational ability, concentration, and emotional stability allow them to stay focused on difficult problems.
Read more...
U Saturn in the 10th House
TENTH HOUSE (House of career). SATURN (planet of discipline and limitations) in the Tenth House: the native is independent and ambitious and can achieve success. With endurance and persistence, they move toward their goal step by step. By the end of life, they may reach a high position, though they may also face loneliness. Strength: self-discipline and a sense of responsibility. Weaknesses: selfishness; they may lose the trust and respect of others.
Read more...
Saturn Aspects:
URANUS
Strength: 44.47
Harmony: 5.71
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 2nd House
SECOND HOUSE (House of property). URANUS (planet of change and originality) in the Second House: the native may have an unusual source of income, and their financial opportunities arise suddenly. Their financial situation is likely to undergo significant fluctuations throughout life. If there are no antagonistic influences in the chart, they may count on eventual success. Antiques and collecting will bring them profit. Strengths: inventiveness, resourcefulness, ability to notice everything valuable. Weaknesses: predisposition to sudden losses, imprudence in financial transactions, money complications connected with friends.
Read more...
Uranus Aspects:
NEPTUNE
Strength: 38.83
Harmony: -17.65
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 3rd House
THIRD HOUSE (House of communication). NEPTUNE (planet of spirituality and illusions) in the Third House: the native is impressionable and imaginative and possesses supernatural insight. They feel a deep need to understand life and are drawn to occult research. They love dreaming and fantasizing. Strengths: idealism, intuition, artistry. Weaknesses: frequent dissatisfaction, confused relationships with relatives, and underestimation of their own abilities.
Read more...
Neptune Aspects:
PLUTO
Strength: 43.64
Harmony: -4.88
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 1st House
FIRST HOUSE (House of personality). PLUTO (planet of transformation) in the First House: the native is strong in spirit and charming, and they love adventure. Even in youth, they learned to be independent and are inclined toward solitude. Strengths: enormous strength, determination, ability to work on themselves. Weaknesses: withdrawal, vindictiveness, ruthlessness.
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 8th 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.
Here, Chiron can show itself from a rather unflattering side. It increases the native’s attraction to the opposite sex and to sexual experimentation, producing Don Juans and courtesans with a ruthless and unforgiving streak, people who seek only pleasure and gratification, care only about themselves, and try to satisfy only their own desires. However, there is another side to the coin. This position of Chiron may also give the native an interest in science, military service, criminology, and risky or even life-threatening ventures. With a strong psyche and certain unusual abilities, such as hypnosis or the gift of suggestion, these people often have power over others, including animals. For this reason, among them one may find not only surgeons, hypnologists, psychotherapists, and psychiatrists, but also trainers, animal tamers, fakirs, and illusionists. Many representatives of the arts are also found among them, especially musicians, vocalists, actors, and people interested in the occult sciences.

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 - h 14°
Strength: 108.92
Harmony: -36.17
1st House in Virgo - Ruler of Mercury
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 Virgo shows that this energy is close to the native in communication and in the way they express themselves. This is a positive person who strives for self-development and discipline. They love making lists and planning for the future. A person with the Ascendant in Virgo sees the world and events as if through a microscope, noticing every detail. Perfectionism and high standards do not allow them to stay silent when they see carelessly done work or an unfair attitude toward other people.
Mercury rules Virgo, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the First House (Ascendant).
Read more...
2nd HOUSE - j 08°
Strength: 95.85
Harmony: 20.09
2nd House in Libra - Ruler of Venus
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.
When the Second House is in Libra, it is important to pay attention to the native’s resourceful environment, because without partnership, business cooperation, and personal collaboration, it is impossible to achieve a stable income; this will also affect their health and mood.
Venus rules Libra, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Second House.
Read more...
3rd HOUSE - k 08°
Strength: 58.10
Harmony: -21.12
3rd House in Scorpio - Ruler of Pluto and Mars
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.
The Third House in Scorpio is complex in itself and suggests many karmic lessons connected with the areas listed above. The native perceives the surrounding world as hostile and aggressive, fighting against it like Don Quixote tilting at windmills.
The senior ruler Pluto and the junior ruler Mars rule Scorpio, so both Mars and Pluto will play an important role when analyzing the Third House.
Read more...
4th HOUSE - l 11°
Strength: 23.92
Harmony: 14.56
4th House in Sagittarius - Ruler of Jupiter and Neptune
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.
The Fourth House in Sagittarius, under the rulership of Jupiter, the planet of happiness and wealth, is a favorable indicator. The native comes from a respected, distinguished family line. When interpreting the Fourth House, it is important to evaluate other factors as well: the positions of the Moon, the ruler of the sign, and Venus and Mars. As a rule, however, Sagittarius indicates famous people in the family line.
The senior ruler Jupiter and the junior ruler Neptune rule Sagittarius, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the Fourth House.
Read more...
5th HOUSE - z 16°
Strength: 63.34
Harmony: 5.19
5th House in Capricorn - Ruler of Saturn and Uranus
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.
In Capricorn, all spheres of pleasure undergo the restrictions imposed by its ruler, Saturn. Expressing emotions becomes difficult, and as a result, relationships with children may be cold and strained. There may also be a desire to impose one’s will and constantly control everyone, along with fear of expressing sexuality and creative innovation. Because of restraint and conservatism, the person may miss the chance to be happy.
The senior ruler Saturn and the junior ruler Uranus rule Capricorn, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the Fifth House.
Read more...
6th HOUSE - x 17°
Strength: 159.73
Harmony: 13.31
6th House in Aquarius - Ruler of Uranus and Saturn
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.
Aquarius on the cusp of the Sixth House symbolizes a creative, freedom-loving person who does not recognize rules and plays by their own. It is especially difficult for them to work through the main aspects of the Sixth House: daily routine drives them into depression, which can lead to frequent resignations and changes of profession.
The senior ruler Uranus and the junior ruler Saturn rule Aquarius, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Sixth House.
Read more...
7th HOUSE - c 14°
Strength: 21.67
Harmony: 2.87
7th House in Pisces - Ruler of Neptune and Jupiter
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 Pisces reveals the native as a tender, romantic nature who dreams of love until their last breath. With the Ascendant in Virgo, along with the person’s outward restraint and practicality, it can be difficult to guess the deep sensuality that attracts creative, bohemian partners — or simply soft-willed and infantile ones.
The senior ruler Neptune and the junior ruler Jupiter rule Pisces, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Seventh House.
Read more...
8th HOUSE - a 08°
Strength: 16.71
Harmony: -4.51
8th House in Aries - Ruler of Mars and Pluto
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 Aries makes risk incredibly attractive. The native flies like a moth to the flame of passions, arguments, fights, complicated financial operations, and criminal showdowns. They live on adrenaline. Extreme sports and an explosive temper, especially with negative aspects to Mars, may become a cause of death through their own carelessness; however, by skillfully avoiding temptations and developing spiritually, people can live to old age even with such indicators.
The senior ruler Mars and the junior ruler Pluto rule Aries, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Eighth House.

9th HOUSE - s 08°
Strength: 54.05
Harmony: -9.17
9th House in Taurus - Ruler of Venus
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 Taurus makes a person an adherent of practical philosophical systems, a lover of solid, prestigious education and reliable sources of knowledge. Good fortune favors them in matters of real estate and art, while their view of the world is formed on the basis of lived experience.
Venus rules Taurus, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Ninth House.

10th House in Gemini - Ruler of Mercury
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.
Usually, the Tenth House shows what a person wants to receive from life, but in the case of the Tenth House in Gemini, the answer is “everything they want,” since a thirst for new experiences and for applying their many areas of knowledge pushes them toward two or three careers in different fields. This is a one-person orchestra, eager to find a profession in which many responsibilities can be combined.
Mercury rules Gemini, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Tenth House.

11th House in Cancer - Ruler of Moon
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 Cancer makes the native a warmhearted and loving friend. They perceive people dear to their heart as blood relatives, who can always count on their support and involvement.
The Moon rules Cancer, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Eleventh House.

12th House in Leo - Ruler of Sun
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 Leo gives a person a tremendous reserve of energy and willpower, but most often they discover these qualities in confinement or in a confrontation with difficulties, without even suspecting their own leadership abilities.
The Sun rules Leo, 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 Venus — Individuality
A person with retrograde Venus differs noticeably from a person with Venus in direct motion. Here, there is a tendency to create grievances and wounds within and work through them internally, whereas Venus in direct motion would try to work them through outwardly. Often, retrograde Venus not only creates these grievances and wounds, but also tends to exaggerate their effect. Excessive emphasis is placed on the lack of love in the individual’s life. For such a person, the path of love does not flow smoothly.
Excessively shy, they usually doubt whether people pay attention to them. Not always certain of their likes and dislikes, they experience a discrepancy between their life and their awareness of it. They may be deeply in love and not realize it until years after the relationship has ended. They experience many similar behavior patterns designed to keep them from entering the reality of what they think they truly need.
There is always difficulty with the opposite sex, since the individual tends to subconsciously preprogram their future relationships so that they fit the patterns of their past.
Great insecurity corresponds to this position, since the individual constantly tries to measure up to the people whose paths cross theirs. But in doing so, they semi-consciously continue pushing others away so that no one truly comes to know them deeply enough to threaten the small degree of confidence and security on which they have based their identity. In this position, the individual blocks themselves from happiness by trying too hard to achieve it.
Retrograde Venus — Karma
When Venus is retrograde, the individual carries with them a misunderstanding of love from a past life. The emotional pain was so strong that they now cut themselves off from fully experiencing the richness of love because they are afraid of being wounded again. Whether male or female, there is great difficulty in relationships with the opposite sex in the current life.
Trying to live in the present, they endlessly recreate the past memory of love from a previous incarnation, which continues to elude them. They react to the present as if they are actually living in their past. In this sense, they are fixed at some point in time, and no matter what they do, there will hardly be the forward movement they say they want.
In men’s charts, this sometimes indicates karma connected with homosexuality. But even homosexuality has its levels, ranging from an openly homosexual man who tries to politically promote homosexuality to the world, to a man who will not tolerate even the word in his presence, who is married but looks for every opportunity to avoid women while proving his masculinity. In the life of the latter type of man, everything revolves around male friends. Under the pretext of attending clubs, associations, and so on, he avoids the company of women. He may function respectably in society, but he is still a latent homosexual. Less often, similar reactions are found in women with retrograde Venus.
The most noticeable karmic pattern is that the individual, whether male or female, has a strong tendency to distrust most offers of love, feeling that those who make these offers usually have hidden motives.
Retrograde Venus in Capricorn
With this position, Venus usually indicates marriage to an older partner or to an individual who symbolizes authority from the past. Sometimes the marriage partner is reminiscent of restrictions imposed in childhood, while in other cases this brings forward restrictions placed on the individual in a past life.
The most comfortable period for the individual is Phase III, in which earlier times are repeated. They represent reliability and security when the individual seeks to experience protective relationships again. This is a collector of antiques or something memorable from earlier historical times, or even of people, which symbolizes their need to bring something to its necessary completion.
Their life is filled with all kinds of forms, because everything they feel, they want to crystallize within themselves in order to satisfy their need for security. They may seem mature for their age in youth, yet at the same time they are constantly protesting inwardly against all restrictions on their freedom. They hold onto thoughts, ideas, and feelings, including negative ones, for many years and tend to deny themselves pleasure or happiness during the first half of life, hoping for some more significant prospect at another time. However, as they grow older, they begin to realize how much they have tried to recreate their past and how much this has bound them. Then they change radically and become more practical from the standpoint of their own needs.
All this time, they feel out of step with people their own age. In essence, they live their life in reverse, experiencing the burden of old age when young and the freedom of youth in old age. This Venus position is one of the horoscope indicators of family karma. The mismatch comes from a past incarnation and is repeated during the younger years in this life: the individual spends much of their time running away from themselves, and then, around the middle of life, when they realize this, they try to compensate for everything they have missed.
Retrograde Venus in the Fifth House
Here, the individual feels most comfortable during Phase I of the retrograde process. They usually have a very strong ego, which expresses itself through the creative process. As a result, they may sometimes astonish people with the tremendous inner confidence they seem to possess. But this is not actually the case, since the combination of planet and House gives acting ability, which the person displays in the presence of others in order to hide their shyness. They tend to project their feelings onto other people because they cannot bear rejection. However, they may reject other people when they feel that those people are about to reject them. They rationally explain their decision by saying that others do not meet their standards.
In some cases, they are inwardly proud of themselves, and others must strengthen this pride before they are admitted into their circle. They will try with all their strength to maintain a sense of self-worth and may often deny themselves the full enjoyment of life in an attempt to be worthy of the image they have created for themselves. They feel their best when they can help others whom they see as less capable than themselves. Thus, some people with this planetary position may derive great pleasure from teaching self-expression to children with developmental delays or to other people with physical disabilities.
One of the greatest difficulties with this Venus position is that the individual is constantly disappointed because their expectations are too unrealistic. They are unable to find the perfect person who can satisfy everything they think they need. Thus, the main direction of their work is the fulfillment of the karmic lesson of contentment. They can grow considerably inwardly by realizing that their life depends less on other people than they believe. The dissatisfaction they sense in others is always the dissatisfaction they have created within themselves. When they learn to expect less from life, they will realize the joy they are seeking.
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 Gemini
Here the native experiences difficulty in communication. They often know what they want to say, but do not know how to say it. They continue a past-life lesson in communicating with other people. Trying to find ways to gain the acceptance and encouragement of those they want to please, they accumulate one crystallized thought-form after another. Now, in this life, even their smallest thoughts carry the full weight of all past thoughts. Thus, it is difficult for the person to reach the essence of understanding they are seeking without first making their way through all the Saturnian thoughts they have linked together.
People with this Saturn placement quietly care for others. Retrograde Saturn in Gemini sees itself as the guardian of other people’s thoughts. At the same time, the native tends to repeat themselves in their own thought processes. They constantly strive to feel confident in themselves, but the more thoughts they accumulate, the more they doubt what they know. Interestingly enough, this doubt is very useful for them, because it helps release the thought-forms they crystallized in the past.
Thus, their karmic mission is actually to unlearn and, through this process, once again reach a simple understanding of what they once knew before they began burdening themselves with the “excess baggage of overeducated opinions.”
It is in Phase One of the retrograde process that they actually complicate their life by accumulating too many thoughts. Then, after passing through intense anxiety and confusion in Phase Two, they are finally able, during the final phase, to release everything that has no value.
Retrograde Saturn in the Tenth House
Here Saturn is in its natural House. The native spends a great deal of time in Phase Three of the retrograde process, reviewing the prestige and dignity they achieved in the past, thereby defining their present opinion of themselves. Essentially, they are highly aware of status, especially within a group of equals. At times, they evaluate themselves in relation to former peer groups and to the extent to which they have now reached or surpassed them.
This is a placement of devotion for retrograde Saturn. The native feels a strong sense of responsibility and must answer to themselves for everything they do. Therefore, they are deeply concerned with seeing their life as a tangible, formative structure that has followed a more or less reasonable path from the earliest point of their memory up to the present moment. They are quite crystallized in this respect, and reason and logic may escape them if these would mean deviating from a preprogrammed sense of duty toward their self-image. This effect comes from those rare moments when they experience Phase One of the retrograde process.
The only way they can be led aside is by something that will improve their self-image in the future, provided that nothing from their past is destroyed in the process. Karmically, they are trying to establish a sense of principle that was not fully formed in past lives and that they do not truly possess in this life. It is formulated only in the areas of career, public image, and a sense of duty toward society.
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 Second House
Here the native experiences constant changes and fluctuations in their values. The principles they support do not come from any one specific source. Because of this, it is difficult for them to know what they truly stand for. Usually, Phase One of the retrograde process comes to the forefront here, but the nature of the sign can modify this influence. In a positive sign, the native tries to express all the differences that exist within them so that other people can experience the same thing. In a negative sign, the whole picture takes on a more introspective tone. Thus, one native imprints their reality upon the universe, while another responds to a universe of differences. In either case, the native’s financial outlook and attachments are erratic and apparently never offer the stability they would like.
Karmically, the fear of commitment and attachment must be overcome. Instead of binding themselves to any one particular path in life, this native likes to sample pieces of different possibilities that they may one day claim as their own — after they have tried everything! They are an explorer of the ideals, values, causes, and goals by which most people live. Unfortunately, they do not want to remain loyal to anything they discover. Thus, they can be very useful to other people while not realizing the true values within themselves. When they learn to be impartial, they will see the light of life’s true meaning. In this way, the commitment they eventually make will be based on what the universe objectively shows them as its truth.
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 Libra
Natives with this placement have a rather unique experience in consciousness. They observe the evolution and transformation of the world, but do not truly feel a desire to be a substantial part of it. On the one hand, they personally perceive the consciousness of every person around them. This makes them a curious blend of everyone they have seen and come into contact with. On the other hand, they do not relate to themselves personally. Thus, they do not stand up for what it seems they should stand up for. As a result, this placement functions as a window through which the consciousness of humanity passes.
A strong sense of responsibility for others gives many people with this configuration a silent martyr complex. They feel that their ability to balance the people around them is reflected in their personal account before God. This is one of the most difficult placements for retrograde Pluto, because the force of change destroys the quiet inertia of Libra. Here there is a drive to achieve combined with a desire not to participate.
When Pluto entered Libra, many “Guru movements” became popular. Even the spread of Transcendental Meditation is a distinctive expression of this placement. To transcend limits is the power of Pluto; to do this through meditation is the calm inactivity of Libra.
On an individual level, the retrograde action of the planet gives the native the ability to absorb human consciousness so that they can fit into the wholeness of everything they perceive. This causes them to experience Phase Three of the retrograde process most of the time.
Karmically, people born with this planetary placement have an inwardly calm and impartial desire to transform the age in which they live. Their goal is a more peaceful and harmonious state of consciousness.
Retrograde Pluto in the First House
This is a very dynamic placement of Pluto, placing upon the native a lifelong search for self-purification. They experience constant transformations, because their unceasing drive to search carries them through many intense experiences. In youth, they are extremely impulsive, acting out Phase One of the retrograde process. In the second half of life, they become more introspective, and instead of wanting to imprint themselves upon the world, they seek to understand the extent to which they are a product of the universe in which they live.
In everything they do, there is a powerful inner drive that motivates them. They are rarely satisfied and are extremely difficult to please, because what they are seeking usually lies beyond the reach of those who try to help them. Marriage and other relationships are difficult with retrograde Pluto in the First House, because the native’s inner disorder causes them to constantly try to uproot and transform their needs and basic desires. In the current incarnation, they will spend most of their time transforming personal concepts and learning to step beyond the limits of the karma of their personal identification as they discover cosmic reality. Their concern with achieving this is the reason they spend so much time in Phase One, but their true evolution always comes from the realizations they reach in Phase Three.
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 Sagittarius, South Node in Gemini
A person with the South Node in Gemini is accustomed to an active, mobile way of life. They travel a lot, study, and communicate. However, in this life they need to become more elevated and develop philosophical thinking. Fuss and distraction take up a great deal of time and energy, while solving the same types of tasks does not truly foster growth.
If the person decides to move along the path of the North Node, they will be able to avoid many problems: dependence on the opinions of others, getting bogged down in details, and a lack of independence.
It will be good if the native chooses teaching or scientific work, independently generates progressive ideas, and devotes themselves to spreading new philosophical concepts.

North Node in the Fourth House - South Node in the Tenth House. Karma of Roots
The North Node in the Fourth House indicates the need to invest in family, respect traditional values, and maintain a connection with parents and children. It will be good if the person resolves the issue of their own home as early as possible and creates a comfortable, cozy atmosphere there. Activities connected with cooking, raising children, and organizing a harmonious space are favorable.
The native should not be ambitious or overly pragmatic. Career aspirations will be difficult to realize if the person does not have a solid foundation in the form of family.
In a broader sense, the North Node in the Fourth House symbolizes service to the homeland and love for one’s country. Recognition and success will come to the person if they choose a profession such as historian, military service member, politician, and so on, and honestly fulfill their duty.

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 7th House
The White Moon in the Seventh House symbolizes the light of love that attracts partners for a karmic marriage. As a rule, these are beautiful relationships filled with mutual understanding, trust, and emotional closeness, but another scenario is also possible: if the women of the family line did not value themselves, remained victims of a cruel spouse, and endured restrictions, then as a test, a tyrant and despot may once again be given, so that the person can manifest the power of self-love, which will also require working through the First House.
Future partners perceive the person through the First-Seventh House axis. The White Moon in the Seventh House magnetically attracts kind, spiritually developed, intellectual friends and loved ones, while the native themselves is perceived by others as an otherworldly being, beautiful and bright, which does not make the task of uniting with a suitable life partner any easier.

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 Capricorn
With this position of Lilith, sensuality is suppressed in youth and experienced in later years. A certain role may be played by upbringing in childhood and self-discipline in more mature age, but above all by victory over inner contradictions and the struggle between desire and self-restraint. Here the person must give up all forms of tyranny and despotism, the cold-blooded and calculated destruction of enemies, opponents, and competitors, and the sacrifice of innocent people. It is considered together with the positions of Saturn, the Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and the Tenth House of the horoscope.
Read more...
Lilith in the 5th House
Here Lilith indicates that negative Karma will extend to children and future descendants. With this position of Lilith, from an early age the person is drawn to corrupt pleasures, sex, and perversion, which can lead to sybaritism, prostitution, and an immoral way of life with all the consequences that follow. In women, this may indicate infertility due to an accident, an unsuccessful abortion, or miscarriage; in more severe cases, the death of a child. In men, it manifests as an immoral way of life and points to extramarital love intrigues, casual fleeting affairs, or children born outside marriage.
Now the person is required to show a noble attitude not only toward partners, but also toward children, including those born outside marriage. They must help them materially and spiritually, give them an education, and provide them with a worthy upbringing. This placement also requires a sober assessment and careful analysis of professional problems, as well as strict control over private life.

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 Capricorn
In this case, success is led by healthy ambition, diligence, high work capacity, effort, perseverance, persistence, endurance, patience, thrift, frugality, restraint, self-discipline, self-control, and composure. Prudence, quick-wittedness, calculation, healthy pride, independence, a sense of duty, reliability, and responsibility will also prove useful. Success may not come as quickly as desired, but it will inevitably arrive if the person shows persistence. The greatest income can come from a responsible government position. In addition, income is possible from agriculture or mining, real estate, transport enterprises or vehicles, office service, and overseas trade.
Activity connected with science, technology, applied sciences, mathematics, physics, and economics may be successful. Work in the field of international relations, business, financial transactions, stock-exchange operations, or service in departments where operations with securities, bills of exchange, and shares are carried out may be profitable. Agriculture, work in mines and quarries, underground work, as well as architecture and construction promise great profit. Inventive and rationalizing activity, as well as crafts, bring success.
If afflicted, success is hindered by selfishness, self-interest, increased willfulness, stinginess, greed, an excessive desire for power, aggression, cruelty, treachery, dependence on one’s own moods, abuse of authority, and official misconduct.

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 |
|---|---|
| j Libra | 139 |
| d Gemini | 129 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (12 Signs) | 773 |
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 | 52 |
| Y Jupiter | 47 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Planets) | 527 |
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 |
|---|---|
| Sixth House | 159 |
| Tenth House | 129 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Houses) | 773 |

Fixed Stars in the natal chart. Some planets in the natal chart may behave in very unusual ways, and the cause may be the influence of a star hidden behind the planet or house cusp.
The next step is predictive astrology:
- Transit Calculation. This method makes it possible to calculate the transits of moving planets and overlay them on the natal chart. Transiting planets interact with the planets of the natal chart. As a result, an energetic connection arises, activating and awakening various events in a person’s inner and outer life.
