Emmanuel Macron - 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: 83.39
Harmony: 1.80
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 Sagittarius l 29°
Sagittarius is a full-fledged representative of the Fire element, and their explosive temperament confirms this. This sign is an example of a harmonious combination of inner and outer energy. The description of a Sagittarius Sun shows that they are open to communication and friendly with others, which deservedly gives them the title of a public favorite. At the same time, this is a very freedom-loving type, one who reacts painfully to any attempt to encroach on their personal freedom.

Q Sun in the 11th House
ELEVENTH HOUSE (House of hopes, wishes, and friends). SUN (planet of vital energy and individuality) in the Eleventh House: the native is successful in society and knows how to win and keep friends. They benefit from their friends’ faith and support. They have great goals in life, and their optimism attracts allies. Strengths: idealism and creativity. Weakness: excessive dominance.
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: 46.63
Harmony: 5.95
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 Capricorn z 28° - Ruler Saturn and Uranus
Saturn, the senior ruler of the sign Capricorn, is the planet of patience, responsibility, and discipline. But Saturn is also the planet of time and limitations, and Capricorns are often overly serious, which can make them pessimistic. They may see life in gray tones. Still, their ability to plan their time and their natural ambition help them achieve their goals. If Saturn is not afflicted in the natal chart, they almost always reach what they set out to achieve.
People born with Capricorn Rising are usually sensitive, shy, enterprising, ambitious, controlling, reserved, practical, grounded, conscientious, responsible, critical, and cool-headed. It is quite possible that they had problems with communication at an early age. They may suffer from a sense of inferiority. They learned to overcome these feelings through strength and necessity, which gives them determination in pursuing their goals and tasks in life. Great ambition and a refusal to admit defeat until they reach the heights they have set for themselves are their main qualities. Money, position, and power are important to them. Their restraint is sometimes perceived by others as coldness and indifference, while in reality they are simply being responsible and doing their duty.
The main lesson to learn: learn how to communicate.
Saturn and Uranus rule Capricorn, so these two planets will play an important role in the natal chart. Read more...
Ascendant Aspects:
MIDHEAVEN (MC)
Strength: 50.39
Harmony: -4.65

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 Scorpio k 29° - Ruler Pluto and Mars
Rulers: Pluto and Mars. A person with the MC in Scorpio is not afraid of difficulties or obstacles; on the contrary, they are stimulated by them and become more focused on the goal. They do not shy away from any kind of work, and quite often their work is connected with extreme circumstances, such as firefighting, rescue work, mining, or criminal investigation. Over time, however, such work can harden the person, making them severe, aggressive, and ruthless. They may exceed their authority, violate instructions, and even break the law. Sometimes, of course, circumstances may justify this. Still, one should note their diligence, complete immersion in work, devoted service to the cause, and persistence. The professional interests of a person with the Midheaven in Scorpio are always very deep; superficiality is simply ruled out here. It may seem that their energy has no limit, but this is not so. Overload connected with work that demands maximum physical and psychological effort may affect their health.
In addition to hard work and extreme responsibility, one should note Scorpio’s enormous ambition. They are not satisfied with a subordinate position. In youth, they spend their restless energy on extreme sports or dangerous work, but the older they become, the more strongly their love of power makes itself felt. Such people often become leaders, frequently in security or law-enforcement agencies, or they enter politics. Scorpio’s characteristic egocentrism simply compels them to achieve the goal they have set for themselves — a goal that cannot be called small and may even seem beyond reach or impossible to an ordinary person.
Despite Scorpio’s remarkable strength and pressure, the world does not surrender its positions so easily. Therefore, if a person with this Meridian in the chart has afflicted Pluto or Mars, this points to many disputes, quarrels, scandals, confrontations, and clashes. Indeed, any person with a strongly expressed Scorpio sign faces no small number of difficulties, but in one way or another they emerge victorious from every ordeal, even in the event of a complete life collapse.
There is also another category of people with the Midheaven in Scorpio: financial power players. But to become one with certainty, the natal chart must contain indicators of the ability to handle huge sums of money; the Meridian in Scorpio alone is not enough. Read more...
Midheaven Aspects:
MOON
Strength: 37.93
Harmony: -26.53
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 Taurus s 14°
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.
The emotional state of Lunar Taurus is stable, and others find this quality calming. As a rule, the native is balanced and peaceful, so it is not easy to throw them off course or provoke a strong emotional reaction from them.
Read more...
W Moon in the 3rd House
THIRD HOUSE (House of communication). MOON (planet of emotions and instincts) in the Third House: the native’s thinking is emotional, and they have a powerful imagination. They do not like monotony; their life is filled with short trips. They have a good memory, often change their opinion, and make a favorable impression when working with people or appearing in society. Strengths: inquisitive mind, prudence, ability to write beautifully about themselves and their relatives. Weaknesses: gloominess, mental instability, tendency to interfere in other people’s lives.

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: 82.72
Harmony: -9.70
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 Sagittarius l 29°

Their friendships are based on intellectual affinity. They enjoy social life and take part in groups, clubs, and societies. Strength: they find original ways to achieve their goals. Weaknesses: impracticality and/or cynicism.
Read more...
Mercury Aspects:
VENUS
Strength: 48.71
Harmony: 13.83
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...

Weakness: they confuse friendship with love.
Read more...
Venus Aspects:
MARS
Strength: 57.70
Harmony: -19.80
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 Leo g 11°
People with Mars in Leo in the natal chart take pride in themselves and probably have a strong ego. They want to stand out, distinguish themselves favorably, and be recognized for who they are.
Read more...
T Mars in the 7th House
SEVENTH HOUSE - House of marriage and partnership. MARS (planet of energy and self-assertion) in the Seventh House: the native is exceptionally independent and remains so in marriage or partnership. Their relationships begin unexpectedly, and they are usually the active party. Mars in the Seventh House suggests that the native may have more than one marriage, or that a marriage or business partnership may be cut short by the death of the partner. Strength: fiery, passionate relationships in marriage. Weaknesses: arguments and quarrels with loved ones; early divorce is possible.
Read more...
Mars Aspects:
JUPITER
Strength: 61.19
Harmony: 7.53
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 Cancer f 01°
A person born with Jupiter in Cancer is loving, peaceful, friendly, sociable, responsive, and perhaps quite patriotic.
Read more...
Y Jupiter in the 5th House
FIFTH HOUSE (House of creation and sex). JUPITER (planet of luck and expansiveness) in the Fifth House: many kinds of leisure bring the native pleasure. They give special preference to sports competitions, parties, and the theater. If there are no opposing influences in the horoscope, they will be lucky in stock exchange operations. They are sometimes careless in love affairs. Strength: children bring them happiness. Weaknesses: extravagance and gambling sometimes bring them losses.
Read more...
Jupiter Aspects:
SATURN
Strength: 53.51
Harmony: -2.68
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 00°
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 7th House
SEVENTH HOUSE - House of marriage and partnership. SATURN (planet of discipline and limitations) in the Seventh House: the native approaches marriage and partnership cautiously and postpones them until they feel completely sure. Their spouse is often a widow, widower, or someone older than they are. If there are no opposing influences in the birth chart, they improve their financial or social position through marriage. Strength: they take their commitments to a partner seriously. Weakness: possible legal complications and losses connected with them.

Saturn Aspects:
URANUS
Strength: 40.53
Harmony: -27.43
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 9th House
NINTH HOUSE (House of exploration and education). URANUS (planet of change and originality) in the Ninth House: the native has an independent mind and seeks to broaden their intellectual horizons. They may be seen as a person with unconventional views who is interested in unusual fields of knowledge. An opportunity to travel may appear suddenly. Exciting events may await them abroad. Strengths: adventurousness and a desire for new experience. Weakness: a rebellious spirit.
Read more...
Uranus Aspects:
NEPTUNE
Strength: 54.66
Harmony: 12.86
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: 26.89
Harmony: -0.60
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 8th House
EIGHTH HOUSE (House of life and death, rebirth, and inheritance). PLUTO (planet of transformation) in the Eighth House: the native’s drive for success is combined with a need to analyze their own actions. In sex, they can be dominant and passionate. Pluto in this House suggests that their death will not go unnoticed by society. Strengths: independence and resourcefulness. Weakness: a predisposition to unhealthy attachments.
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 2nd House
Most importantly, Chiron’s gifts are the talent of duality and adaptability in those spheres and areas of life indicated by the leading principles of that House of the horoscope. This person can skillfully, artfully, and deftly combine opposites. Their cunning, craftiness, and ability to maneuver are boundless.
Here, Chiron mainly protects those whose work is connected with material values and those who can extract money from anything. These people instantly sense the smell of money and their own advantage. Among them are many commercial figures, businesspeople and ordinary shopkeepers, large and small bankers, and people in whose hands large material assets are held, such as warehouse managers, cashiers, owners of real estate, hotels, restaurants, shops, night bars, and the like.

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 - z 28°
Strength: 85.14
Harmony: 0.85
1st House in Capricorn - Ruler of Saturn and Uranus
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 Capricorn forms a complex character, the severity of which depends directly on the person’s spiritual growth: stubbornness and rigidity in communication must be transformed into confidence and determination. To the native, obstacles do not exist, and overcoming difficulties is one of their favorite pursuits. They are a realist who stands firmly on the ground. High social status is of primary importance to them, and for this reason they work tirelessly and limit themselves in entertainment and purchases.
Saturn and Uranus rule Capricorn, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the First House (Ascendant).
Read more...
2nd HOUSE - c 25°
Strength: 43.39
Harmony: 0.15
2nd House in Pisces - Ruler of Neptune and Jupiter
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.
Under the influence of Neptune, the native generously gives to friends and even strangers, helping and saving others, but without looking deeply into the essence of the problem. In this way, they may give their entire salary to scammers who move them with a tearful story and end up with nothing. However, at a high level of spirituality, their kindness returns a hundredfold. Everything they have given comes back through other people in a higher form of wealth.
The senior ruler Neptune and the junior ruler Jupiter rule Pisces, and therefore their influence is especially important when analyzing the Second House.
Read more...
3rd HOUSE - s 04°
Strength: 62.28
Harmony: -19.61
3rd House in Taurus - Ruler of Venus
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 Third House is in Taurus, the native seeks coziness and comfort both in communication and in the way they express themselves in these areas. A friendly atmosphere in the classroom is important to them, but if the school is poorly furnished, with shabby desks and dark walls, they will not have happy memories of their years of study.
Venus rules Taurus, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Third House.
Read more...
4th HOUSE - s 29°
Strength: 24.35
Harmony: 6.92
4th House in Taurus - 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.
Taurus brings comfort and a steadily favorable development of events to any sector of the horoscope. However, this is one hundred percent true only when the House and its ruler, Venus, are harmonious. For the native, it is important that the home be clean and beautiful, smell pleasantly of fresh baked goods, and welcome only close and trustworthy friends as guests.
Venus rules Taurus, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Fourth House.

5th HOUSE - d 18°
Strength: 102.55
Harmony: 2.68
5th House in Gemini - Ruler of Mercury
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.
The cusp of the Fifth House in Gemini gives the native ease in communication and flirtation, making them charming but unreliable. They prefer intellectual romances, where most of the action takes place in the imagination, and they may cheat without much guilt if their mind is stimulated by a vivid verbal duel with a new partner.
Mercury rules Gemini, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Fifth House.
Read more...
6th HOUSE - f 06°
Strength: 18.97
Harmony: -13.26
6th House in Cancer - Ruler of Moon
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 Cancer is responsible for emotional experiences, so themes of health, duties, debts, pets, and earnings will act as triggers that activate deep feelings. This creates an exaggerated sense of importance around everything listed above, both in the native’s own attitude and in their expectation that others will approach these matters responsibly.
The Moon rules Cancer, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Sixth House.

7th HOUSE - f 28°
Strength: 151.02
Harmony: -35.29
7th House in Cancer - Ruler of Moon
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.
Men and women with the Seventh House in Cancer, when falling in love, already hear wedding bells and try on the role of future spouse for the person they like. Of course, this does not mean they will rush headlong to the registry office; the very thought may even frighten them...
The Moon rules Cancer, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Seventh House.

8th HOUSE - h 25°
Strength: 80.43
Harmony: -1.99
8th House in Virgo - Ruler of Mercury
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 Virgo requires careful attention to money and health. These are precisely the source of anxieties and problems. Eighth-House Virgos drive themselves crazy over small details that would not be a problem for an ordinary person. They can easily lose peace and sleep if they ordered kitchen furniture and it is not delivered on time, or if they are told that the fittings in the chosen color are no longer available.
Mercury rules Virgo, and therefore its influence is especially important when analyzing the Eighth House.

9th HOUSE - k 04°
Strength: 61.68
Harmony: -32.53
9th House in Scorpio - Ruler of Pluto and Mars
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.
If this House falls into the realm of Scorpio, the person is drawn to secret knowledge and esotericism. They cannot resist studying the dark side of consciousness, although they do so with the best intentions, wishing to eradicate evil in their own soul and help others. But by burning away the darkness too quickly, they risk facing a psychological crisis. They fight for social justice and are ready to go to the stake for a righteous cause.
The senior ruler Pluto and the junior ruler Mars rule Scorpio, so both Mars and Pluto will play an important role when analyzing the Ninth House.

10th House in Scorpio - Ruler of Pluto and Mars
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.
A person with the Tenth House in Scorpio looks in any career for an opportunity to investigate intrigues, expose liars, and uncover secrets. It is difficult to be deceitful in their presence, and the falsehood in the behavior and voice of schemers is clearly visible to them. The native’s purpose lies in skillfully managing power for the benefit of the world, but in order to learn how to use it, they must pass through a series of trials and temper their spirit.
The senior ruler Pluto and the junior ruler Mars rule Scorpio, so both Mars and Pluto will play an important role when analyzing the Tenth House.

11th House in Sagittarius - Ruler of Jupiter and Neptune
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.
When the Eleventh House is in Sagittarius, conventions collapse. It seems as though the whole world is friends with the horoscope holder, and they themselves are open to communication around the clock. The ruler Jupiter, by default, grants the happiness of strong and loyal friendship; the main thing is to determine who is an ally and who is a freeloader.
The senior ruler Jupiter and the junior ruler Neptune rule Sagittarius, so their influence should be taken into account when analyzing the Eleventh House.

12th House in Capricorn - Ruler of Saturn and Uranus
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.
With the Twelfth House in Capricorn, the person may turn out to be exceptionally goal-oriented and very practical, while subconsciously avoiding their inner problems by loading themselves with all kinds of work so heavily that they have no time left to face themselves.
The senior ruler Saturn and the junior ruler Uranus rule Capricorn, so their influence should be taken into account 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 Sagittarius
This is truly a lost soul who needs a great deal of help from others if the individual is to find themselves in the vast expanses of mental wandering. In past incarnations, they were a seeker, but their winding wanderings have not yet created a basic frame of reference within which they can catalog their information. They are still trying to encompass so many subjects that they often do not know where to begin speaking or what is truly relevant to discuss.
This position interferes with concentration, because when the individual tries to focus deeply on a specific subject, their thoughts are always interrupted by outer distractions that make them feel that whatever they are thinking about is hardly worth much attention. Thus, they leave many problems in life unresolved. They gain a great deal from earth signs, since they offer the stability they need.
Their greatest difficulty lies in the fact that, mentally, they want to understand everything under the heavens in order to apply the information they receive to a problem left unresolved in the past. The difficulty here is that the information acquired is superficial, and it is too hard for them to apply it in any one area. Unfortunately, they try to use objective Jupiterian wisdom, which reflects great cosmic truths, for their own problems in the past, instead of raising themselves in today’s life to a cosmic level.
They do not like it when others impose their thoughts on them, and they use mental independence to seek correction of past injustice. Strange as it may seem, Jupiter’s influence should scatter Mercury enough to prevent them from doing this, yet they continue trying. Even when they enter the present, they tend to exaggerate these thoughts disproportionately.
In this sign, Mercury experiences difficulties during all three phases of the retrograde process. It can never experience enough stabilizing influence to make clear and precise thinking a natural way of life. Despite all this, this person, strange as it may seem, is a mystical spiritual messenger for everyone they meet.
Retrograde Mercury in the Eleventh House
Here, the individual experiences more mental freedom than practical application of their thoughts. As they pass through the retrograde phases, they may be an inspirer of ideas for others during Phase I, or, at the other extreme, a dreamer during Phase III, reflecting on what they could have done but did not do. The Uranian need for excitement and the mental need for stimulation make Phase II the most uncomfortable one for the individual. As a result, the combination of Phases I and III causes the individual to experience great impracticality in their thinking. They find it difficult to establish meaning and significance. Yet they feel it is necessary to keep moving. The individual is searching for an unattainable, elusive rainbow that they believe truly exists. As a result, they may well be someone who lets go of the bird in hand in order to chase one in the sky.
They are a loner, yet they need people, if only to add color to their ideas. At the same time, their particular trait is to remain mentally detached. The individual may be cold and impartial, avoiding close contact in personal relationships. They dislike rigid methods of thinking in other people. For them, freedom of mind is more important than the final result of its application. They need space in order to think; they feel uncomfortable in a crowd.
In some cases, they may be sexually unresponsive, since they do not feel completely comfortable in intimate situations. They may acknowledge marriage, children, and traditions only in words, but their main strength lies in spreading ideas for others. It is easier for them to solve problems in society than to deal with things closer to their own life. Resenting the delay of social reforms, they may ignore personal reform within themselves. Thus, they experience distortions in the priorities of their relationship to society, family, and themselves. It is difficult to establish contact with them, since they may rebel against anything that binds them. However, in many ways, they are a universal seeker, focusing much of their mental energy on understanding the progress of humanity. They are intrigued by the process of evolution and by humanity more as a theory than as a fact. They do not like to confront the central essence of life, and they are almost happy to observe it as an outside witness. This apparently directs the entire horoscope toward the lifestyle of an individual who has great difficulty aiming their life in reasonable directions through balanced means.
Karmically, they are engaged in studying levels of consciousness, without necessarily binding themselves to any specific level. They compare past ideas with the reality of the present and future dreams in order to one day understand what it is they are searching for. Not knowing the questions, they are unlikely to understand the answers; nevertheless, they are a seeker of a high order, and they would do well to turn to the methods of Taoism or Zen, where some of their unconventional ideas may actually find a refuge of truth on a universal level.
Retrograde Mars — Individuality
It is not easy for this individual to coordinate their needs. They have difficulty coordinating thought and action. The past, everything they have truly experienced, remains on the periphery of their consciousness. They also experience sexual difficulties because of the reverse magnetism of the retrograde planet. This is mainly due to their inability to regulate the flow of energy that this planetary position causes them to experience.
Much of what they will experience depends less on thoughts or emotions and more on the ability to manage their energy levels in coordination with the energies they receive from other people. They may react very strongly to a person. Their powerful attachments or dislikes may be based entirely on energies rather than on human sympathies.
Because of this, the individual’s relationships are almost always somewhat distorted. On the sexual level, they apparently symbolize more of a struggle for survival than an actual union with another person. They may jump to conclusions while at the same time delaying the necessary actions that would correct whatever is troubling them. If retrograde Mars is in an air sign, the individual is unusually mentally active and finds it difficult to learn how to relax.
This Mars position is more difficult for women than for men, because the drive system may not correspond to the rest of the horoscope and may diminish femininity. Very few women with this Mars position have, on a subconscious level, a love for men in general. However, on the conscious level, the clear opposite sometimes appears through placing men on a pedestal. This creates a kind of idol worship that brings the woman closer to her subconscious reality by inwardly creating the need to remove the pedestal.
In most positions, retrograde Mars produces a feeling of guilt that isolates the individual, leaving them apart from the free personal relationships characteristic of people with Mars in direct motion.
Retrograde Mars — Karma
When Mars is retrograde in the horoscope, all the individual’s actions in the current life are a restoration of the past. In this life, the individual tries to find people who symbolize those who satisfied them in past incarnations. In their mind, they assign roles to these figures who no longer exist and try, with them, to act out everything they could not previously express. They exert too much influence on people in an attempt to “fit” them into the imaginary roles they have devised for them. They encounter rejection that is too strong and deeply felt, but they do not understand why; they retreat into themselves, never fully experiencing the relationships of their current life in the present moment.
They tend to focus on those times in the past when they dealt with force. Now they subconsciously call forth a vibration toward that same force, whether it is anger, revenge, hostility, or the wrong action of each person in the present. In some cases, they may carry hostility from a past life that makes them distrust the actions of other people. In at least one past life, they experienced suspicious actions or deception from others. The residue of this in the current life weighs heavily on their present behavior.
Retrograde Mars in Leo
Here, the individual may become an island unto themselves. Leo’s pride combines with the force of Mars to create an inner sense of power over other people. The individual rarely acknowledges their influence on others. They may come on too strongly, causing others to back away from them in fear when their weaknesses are pointed out. This occurs during Phase I, which intensifies the reaction. The individual’s opinion of themselves is very subjective and is based more on their current drive than on how other people respond to them. If there is an individual who very much wants to be honest, yet at the same time be an egotist, it is this person.
Sometimes there is difficulty in raising a son; the individual may actually hinder the development of their child by expecting too much from him.
This person does not accept advice. They take a defensive position because they are afraid of losing the illusion of the status they claim, and therefore from time to time they experience great friction with other people. Their goals are so high that when they are fueled by the energy of retrograde Mars, they want to achieve complete fulfillment in everything they see. They must learn how unrealistic these expectations are in their everyday life.
They bring with them into this life a strong desire to command, and therefore continue creating situations of rivalry where, in reality, there is no place for them. Of all Mars positions, this is the one in which the person cannot bear to lose. Clearly, some past-life efforts were not rewarded or fulfilled. Now the individual tries to take back their past by convincing themselves that they possess a considerable degree of power over their life and over those whom they allow to touch it.
Retrograde Mars in the Seventh House
Here, the individual experiences disorientation in their relationships with other people. Marriage is difficult for them, because what they see in their spouse they consider least acceptable in themselves. In a woman’s horoscope, this position often indicates hatred of men in a past life. In this life, the woman will apparently seek reasons to justify her feelings. She often expects that her marriage partner is deliberately trying to hurt her. Very few individuals with this position do not subconsciously look for a reason to quarrel. Often, this manifests in relationships that are highly contentious, if the individual is willing to experience any relationship at all.
Basically, the person distrusts other people and is constantly on guard so as not to be hurt by them. And this preprogrammed attitude causes them to initiate hostile feelings in other people, which then confirm their beliefs.
Karmically, this person must learn mutual compromise in close relationships. Their life is one continuous lesson for their ego, so that one day they can experience for themselves the effect they produce in other people. Until they can understand this lesson, they will subconsciously experience every negative reaction they have caused in others.
Retrograde Jupiter - Individuality
A native with retrograde Jupiter is a living truth unto themselves. Their ideas about right and wrong, about the morality of the world through which they travel, and about the honesty of other people’s opinions have little influence on what they feel within. In an attempt to be fair, this native develops their own unique set of standards. Usually, these standards are based on personal experiences from the beginning of this life, as well as on experiences from other incarnations, and they reflect not mass consciousness, but rather the native’s personally formed concept of the universe.
The native has a keen feel for different places and for how similar they are to one another. At the same time, they are aware of the different levels at which people think. Always studying the mind, they seek to experience an inner richness that they hope will ultimately equal the opportunities available to them in the outer world. This often creates dissatisfaction, which manifests as inner restlessness. They prefer to deal with things by grasping the essence of an idea and its significance, rather than the details required to bring that idea into reality.
If Jupiter is well-aspected, the native may have strong self-motivation, but they should be careful not to try to do too many things at once.
Essentially, they are free in spirit. And although they will adapt to the ideals of society when those ideals are useful to them, they constantly struggle to preserve their sense of individuality.
A native with this placement may possess great, almost prophetic wisdom. They can summarize the essence of long, complex, detailed projects in just a few words, while others might become lost in countless small details. The native can be conscientious. Their innate honesty with themselves is one of their most important defining traits. When retrograde Jupiter is poorly aspected, it may indicate ill will carried over from past incarnations. In such cases, a long-standing desire from the past to settle old scores is projected onto new people in the present. Fortunately, this is more the exception than the rule, since retrograde Jupiter gives the native an opportunity to see themselves through the higher mind, after which some of their personal attachments give way to a higher and more impartial understanding. The development of richness in the inner life ultimately takes precedence over the desire to acquire wealth in the outer world.
Retrograde Jupiter - Karma
The karma of retrograde Jupiter is always connected with introspection through the higher mind. The native must be able to justify themselves to themselves in order to feel truly worthy of the respect and honor that Jupiter promises.
In some past incarnation, the person placed great emphasis on the violation of a certain religious or spiritual principle. In the current life, they feel an even stronger determination to redefine the value of this principle in their own mind. They must be careful not to judge others when they see the outer world living by rules they cannot understand. They should be patient with other people if they expect others to listen to the expression of their inner truths.
On another level, the person has accumulated vast lived experience, which is characteristic of retrograde Jupiter. Times and places from the past all blend into a continuous present, so that at any given moment or in any given place, the native experiences that time or place in a generalized way, as though they were simultaneously present in all similar times and places they have ever known. Thus, their consciousness expands in both of these dimensions at once, often without limits. They do not know how to focus their mind on a clear point within themselves. Instead, they absorb the symbols of their thoughts from the surrounding environment, ultimately coming to realize that their home is everywhere, and that every time is the present!
The more these outer symbols correspond to the truth they came to know in a previous life, the more content they become.
Retrograde Jupiter in Cancer
Here the native feels most comfortable in Phase Three of the retrograde process, where they continue trying to reexpand the childlike qualities of the past. They possess a certain naivety and see themselves as simple-hearted. As a result, they experience many difficulties in adult life, because living in the present removes them from a period of time that may have represented greater freedom than their current reality. Their concept of truth has always been more emotional than mental, and as a result, they do not respond very well to reason. Instead, they try to develop their entire awareness from their emotions. This once again emphasizes their childlike qualities.
During adult life, there is a tendency to limit Jupiter’s expansive qualities within the framework of past experience. When the planet’s energy tries to expand, the native feels Cancer’s need to create a protective enclosure. Meanwhile, Jupiter’s retrograde motion pushes this entire conflict not only inward, but also back into the past. Thus, the person experiences both an emotional and a mental conflict at the same time. Their memories are often exaggerated, as they try to correct all the past situations in which they did not fully express themselves. And they tend to repeat their experiences, as though through repetition alone they could become more certain that the way they behaved in the past was right. All their past-life knowledge is now being tested in the higher mind, because they are required to experience it on an emotional level. Thus, they must learn to have devoted faith in their own truths and act according to them.
Retrograde Jupiter in the Fifth House
Here the native spends most of their time in Phase One of the retrograde process. They reach outward in order to express the creative attitudes they developed in a past incarnation. They view life on a grand scale, while seeing the boundaries of traditional society as a stone-paved path whose limits they must cross at any cost. If the rest of the horoscope is strong, this adds a domineering quality to their nature.
A person whose chart contains many squares, as well as an emphasis on fixed signs, Capricorn, or an angular Saturn, does not pay attention to the advice of others. The person seems to invade other people’s psychic space without realizing that they are doing so. Their own goals are very high, but they often overestimate their ability to achieve them. At times, they may expect too much from children, wanting them to accomplish what they themselves have not been able to achieve. They live by the motto: “Do not hold me back!” as they rush forward to try everything life has to offer. At the same time, their great pride prevents them from allowing themselves to be embarrassed in the eyes of others. They would rather dart from one creative experience to another than allow the people whose respect they desire to think poorly of them. They live by the principle that if they can run through a downpour quickly enough, they will not get wet.
This is a difficult placement for marriage and long-term relationships, because the native’s highest truth is always connected with their own opinion of themselves, rather than with an assessment of the criticism they might receive if they allowed other people to know them well enough.
Here the individual sense of identity is based on the discrepancy between the ideals established in past incarnations and everything the native creates in this life. Thus, this is truly a person who is “what they think, becoming what they have thought,” and in later years they will come to know themselves through everything they have created.
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 Seventh House
Here the karma of marriage is experienced in full. The native often feels that their marriage partner is holding them back. If they are not married, they will feel the influence of other people trying to make them return along a path they have already traveled, so they can gain a more balanced and mature view of themselves. In some cases, this placement indicates marriage to an older partner, whom the person may actually have known in a previous incarnation.
The most important lessons are centered on establishing harmony with other people. They know this, but their ego tends to rebel when it becomes difficult. Nevertheless, in past incarnations they learned that their real confidence and security come from others rather than from themselves. They need to feel protected. Essentially, even if they often complain that marriage is boring, they know it is a stabilizing anchor that keeps them from what might otherwise become a disorderly lifestyle.
Karmically, this placement of retrograde Saturn gives the native an opportunity not only to work through childhood issues with a very influential parent by choosing a similar type of marriage partner, but also to share life with another person who, in many cases, appears to be a struggling student, yet in reality turns out to be a teacher. Thus, much can be learned from this placement if the native allows themselves to experience Phase Three of the retrograde process. Through this phase, they can absorb ideas that seem above their current level of maturity.
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 Libra, South Node in Aries
A person with the South Node in Aries is accustomed to taking initiative, acting energetically, and handling everything independently. In this incarnation, the native needs to give up this style of behavior, because it can lead to stagnation and wasted energy.
They should choose the path indicated by the North Node in Libra, which means behaving diplomatically, taking other people’s opinions into account, looking for partners, and creating trusting and harmonious relationships. The meaning of life may be connected with business cooperation and marriage. In addition, Libra is a creative sign, so it is favorable for the native to develop in the field of art.

North Node in the Eighth House - South Node in the Second House. Karma of Ownership
The person fulfills their karmic tasks by managing other people’s financial resources. This is always a risk and a great responsibility, but the faster the native overcomes their inner fears, the stronger and more successful they will become. They should not be content with what they have. They need to build up their resources and make sure those resources strengthen their personal influence on social processes. Politics and business will be typical areas for realizing this karmic potential.
The native may choose some form of dangerous activity, build a career as a military service member, surgeon, athlete, rescuer, stunt performer, and so on. These and many other professions teach them not to be afraid to look danger in the eye.

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 Libra
The White Moon in Libra is harmonious and strong. People with this placement are elegant and benevolent, possess refined artistic taste, and love beauty and grace. In the past, they reconciled those in conflict, opposed gossipers and schemers, and most likely acted as fair judges themselves, preserving balance between the forces of Darkness and Light. Therefore, now they can calmly enjoy safe business partnerships, a happy family life, and support from law enforcement agencies. However, it must not be forgotten that Selena in Libra tests the person’s alignment with the higher qualities of the sign in which she is placed every seven years, and in the case of sinful actions, weakens protection.
A conscious choice to act as a peacemaker, while observing the earthly and cosmic laws of justice and refusing judgment and gossip, will help preserve and increase bright karma for descendants.

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 Gemini
Here Lilith intensifies sensuality, with a tendency toward love correspondence, foul language, and indecent writings and drawings in public places, such as elevators, toilets, stairwells, and so on. It also gives many casual, one-time, fleeting connections, especially during trips, business travel, journeys, and hiking trips, often with an adventurous flavor or with the use of violence and coercion. It is considered together with the Lunar Nodes, Mercury, Jupiter, Chiron, Venus, and the Third House of the horoscope.

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 Gemini
The Part of Fortune in Gemini requires from those under its influence spiritual strength, intellectual abilities, mental agility, manual dexterity, honesty, conscientiousness, decency, nobility, generosity, kindness, and goodwill.
Here, a combination of intellect and intuition is required, along with quick receptivity, deep impressionability, fantasy, and vivid imagination. This Part of Fortune can strengthen curiosity, the desire to communicate with others, and point the individual toward the “path to the people.” However, in this case, the intellectual side must prevail over the emotional one. Resourcefulness, wit, an inventive spirit, and rationalizing abilities contribute to life success. The dynamics of dialogue must reach an almost athletic level, because the person must keep their interlocutor in constant tension, making them, at will, either laugh or cry.
Good income comes from activity connected with the world of science and technology: the nuclear, space, or aviation industries, electronic and computer technology, communications, transport, radio broadcasting, television, and so on. Literature, music, as well as foreign languages — translation, work as a guide or agent — can bring great success. Journalism and specialties connected with the press, publishing houses, printing, work in bookstores, and libraries are favorable. Successful public activity, work connected with trips and business travel, or mediation is also possible. Sometimes occult sciences and medicine are indicated, especially veterinary medicine and healing. A large fortune can be accumulated with a good configuration of the Part of Fortune with the Sun.
If afflicted, the person will have to give up many things, such as frivolity, flightiness, and superficiality, both in the sphere of thinking and in behavior, as well as haste in decisions and rashness in actions and affairs. They must give up immodesty, unreliability, changeability, inconsistency, and excessive fragmentation and dispersion of energy. They will have to work on broadening their spiritual horizons, improving relationships with brothers and sisters, neighbors, and colleagues, and also give up extravagance and squandering money. A poor configuration with Uranus foretells major losses due to problems with papers, letters, and official documents.
Historical figures with the Part of Fortune in Gemini: Queen Victoria of England, the Duchess of Windsor, Otto von Habsburg, Adolf Hitler, Ernst Kraft, Rudolf Steiner, Dmitri Shostakovich, Henry Wallace, Aza Taho-Godi.

Part of Fortune in the Fourth House
The Part of Fortune in the Fourth House promotes harmony and stability in the parental home, and later in the person’s own home. Here, the Part of Fortune strengthens maternal feelings and love for home and family. Abundance prevails at home, and even luxury and wealth are possible. In the parental home, factors prevail that support the individual’s spiritual, emotional, and physical development. The home is a source of the person’s overall harmonious development, preparing them for life and giving them a good foundation for future life and activity. This often indicates inheritance, a secure old age, a long and fruitful life, and a happy end to life.
The Part of Fortune in the Fourth House speaks of a fortunate destiny for the parents. Income may come from real estate, agriculture, mining, or an inherited profession. This may include archaeology, mythology, professions connected with the study of the history and culture of ancient peoples, matters related to water or agriculture, and antiques. Success is often brought by scientific research, occult sciences, or other independent professions.

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 |
|---|---|
| l Sagittarius | 300 |
| k Scorpio | 133 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (12 Signs) | 1028 |
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 | 83 |
| E Mercury | 82 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Planets) | 644 |
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 |
|---|---|
| Eleventh House | 245 |
| Seventh House | 151 |
| ------ | ------ |
| TOTAL (all Houses) | 1028 |
