How To Make Natal Charts From Your Star Sign

Many people are familiar with their zodiac signs. For these, the sun, or zodiac represents the sign the Sun was passing through at the exact time of your birth. As you have read the details about your Zodiac sign, have you ever felt that maybe not everything aligned? Have you ever thought you sounded a little more like an Aquarius in love than a Libra? Or fight like a Scorpio instead of a Cancer? Have you ever wondered where other zodiac signs were at the time you were born? How were the planets aligned?

If you haven’t, you should; especially if you feel like there is more to your story. This is where a birth chart can help. It tells you what your areas of strength are, what you already do well, and what your weak areas are or where you are lacking. They can also help to guide you for the career path that best suits you. In addition, a birth chart can show you how the unique influence of each planet affects your personality and what lessons you need to learn in this life. For example, the ascending sign, or moon sign is the 12^th house of endings. Get ready for the next layer of astrology because once you learn a lot of them, you’ll reach a whole new level of understanding yourself, career choices, and relationships.

Birth charts are the combination of zodiac signs, planets, and astrological houses that make us unique. Each have their own distinct traits, strengths, and weaknesses. It provides a celestial snapshot of universal energies at play the moment you arrived on the planet. It provides a road map to understand how you became you. It shines light on the most unknowable parts of yourself. It is like an inverted triangle with the broadest explanation at top (your zodiac sign). Then there are the planets. The planets take longer to move than houses and signs; whole generations can have the same planetary placements. The slower the planet moves, the more of us that will share that placement and the qualities it brings with it. Ascending and moon signs will further narrow the details, as the Moon changes signs every two and half days. Houses change signs every two hours. Some example of houses include: second house, which is for wealth and values, fourth house which is for roots and family, and the eleventh house which is for friendships. These are what connect all the details together into one complete chart.

To determine your birth chart, you need exact date, time and location of birth. There is a TON of information contained within a birth chart.

The Primary Birth Chart Considerations

If you don’t have a lot of time, then there are 4 things to look at if you just want an overall summary of a birth chart reading. Usually when we point out these things in person’s birth chart, they immediately identify with them.

• Usually immediately, people identify with their Rising signs, sometimes even more so than with Sun sign. Your rising sign tells you a lot about how a person acts on a regular basis, especially in front of others.
• The planets are in conjunction to 1 of the important angles (Ascendant, Midheaven, Descendant). It’s a huge influence on a person. A planet can overpower sun sign characteristics, which means people will greatly identify with characteristics of that planet.
• The planets in conjunction to Sun. If a person doesn’t have #2 (planet in conjunction to an angle), then check for a planet in conjunction to the sun. A planet in conjunction to the sun will color you with qualities.
• The tightest dynamic is the major aspect involving 1 inner planet. If not #2 or #3, look at the tightest major aspect involving either Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars and possibly Jupiter and Saturn. An aspect can be from one of these to any planet, including outer planets. An aspect is between an inner planet and outer planet, its even more obvious and noticeable in person. Focus on the tightest dynamic major aspect. Dynamic (challenging) major aspects are the conjunction, the square and the opposition. The tightest one will be the aspect with smallest orb. An aspect will be a prominent influence in person’s life and can explain why a person acts the way they do.

The three most influential pieces of your birth chart make up the primal triad.

PRIMAL TRIAD: Rising Signs, Moon Signs, and Sun Signs

Your primal triad refers to the placements of the Sun, Moon, and Rising or Ascending sign. Before looking at the birth chart, spending time deciphering the primal triad is a valuable practice. This could be very enlightening for you, as the struggles you may have had in your past could come down to the difference between the perception you are putting out into world (Rising sign) and your real inner personality. Sometimes you’ll hear people describe you and their characterization of you doesn’t match the way you see yourself. This discrepancy is because they are seeing your Rising sign and what you’re projecting, rather than your core self as represented by the Sun sign.

SUN (ZODIAC):

Your Zodiac sign represents your ego, the mark of the innermost structure of your character. The Sun sign guides actions like career and skill development, as well as how you perform in social interactions. We respond at the deepest level through the filter of our Sun sign, which has the mark of our development needs and our core personality.

MOON:

The Moon describes our emotional inner self. The Moon sign also affects romantic behavior when in love. This sign represents physical, emotional, and social needs.

ASCENDANT (RISING):

This is your exterior shell, the face you show the world, the way you appear to others. It is the final leg on which your chart stands. If you see surprise on the faces of those you reveal your Sun sign to, it is probably because they are picking up on your Rising sign. It can become the mask you wear that prevents the world from getting to know the real you. This is how we see the world and how the world sees us (first house of self). It is the beginning of the house and based on the horizon at the exact time of birth, which mean it changes every two hours. When you first meet someone, you likely meet their rising sign.

PLANETS

Planet placement in a natal chart is very important when it comes to personality. Movement of planets correspond with both auspicious events and misfortunes on earth. Your Birth chart is a snapshot of sky at the moment of birth. They reveal the precise location of each of the planets and which constellation they occupied. For some, all are in same constellation. Others spread across sky. Where planets are placed will determine the influence on that house and/or sign. For an example, if Mercury (a planet ruling communication) was on Leo at your time and place of birth, then the way you express yourself is likely to be creative, fiery, and enthusiastic (which are characteristics of Leo). If Venus was in Cancer, then you are likely more affectionate and concerned about your partner by displaying rock solid loyalty. If you have adaptable Gemini in there, you may be a natural flirt who wants to test the waters. Jupiter in Taurus will be helpful when it comes to material wealth. The largest planet is about explanation, luck and optimism, and Taurus is the stable, sensible Earth sign attuned to personal and financial stability. Ultimately, each planet brings a different energy and influence into our lives. The placements of planets affects you and understanding how the connections they make with each other influence your personality. Planets with short orbits move across zodiac frequently and are specific to include date and time of birth. Inner planets including Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars directly impact unique personalities and day to day experiences. On the outer side of the asteroid belt are the outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Those that move slowly, change signs every 1 to 30 years and define larger than life themes, as well as experiences shared by generations. Each planet has a specific energy that governs various areas of life. Love life? Venus placement could hold key. Moon sign is your emotional self. Rising sign will reveal how you interact with the world. Simply put, the key characteristics of the sign that a particular planet is in when you’re born will influence the specifics aspect of your life.

SUN: Sense of self, your ego.

The sun is the sign we use with our horoscopes. It is the first three legs of the birth chart (sun, moon, and Ascendant sign). As the sun puts forth light, so it brings forth life. The sun represents the self, one’s personality and ego, spirit, consciousness, and what it is that makes the individual unique. Ego is Iam, what drives me to be who I am. It is our identity and our face to world, our life force.  The sun reflects who you are all the time, regardless of whom you’re with or what you’re doing. It determines our personality traits, ‘shining’ on certain parts of you and illuminating them for world to see. The Sun also speaks to our creative ability and the power to meet the challenges of everyday life. One’s natural father, husbands, and other male influences are ruled by the Sun, as are children. The Sun’s energy is a forceful one and in its wake comes authority, the ability to lead, and an individual’s essence. Through the will of this planet, we learn to manifest ourselves in the world. The Sun is majestic and in keeping with its regal air, it rules royalty and the higher office. This orb also lords over our health and well being. The Sun’s golden glow is a vital life force which imbues us with strength, energy, and a will to succeed. Physiologically speaking, sun rules over cardiovascular system, which includes the heart. It is the sun that gives strength to the other planets, which is why this planet occupies a key role in astrology. The Sun spends about a month visiting each sign and takes a year to journey through the 12 signs of the zodiac. It is a masculine energy and the rules Leo and the 5^th house.

MOON: Emotional self, your feelings.

The Moon is the closest planet to Earth and completes its circuit in less than a month. It also touches us more deeply than most planets. It symbolizes everything beneath the surface, the spiritual retreat of our most private selves. The moon is the second key leg of a birth chart. As the ruler of the tides, it is fitting that the moon should be the ruler of our emotions and subconscious. Yes, our emotions have long been portrayed in terms of the sea; fluid, momentus, churning from within. Our mood swings, our instinct, how we feel about things, and how our feelings affect others are all influenced by the Moon. It rules all 5 senses and the way you react instinctively to sensory stimuli of the world around you. Whereas the Sun gives us our spirit, it is the Moon that gives us our soul. The Moon is goddess-like in that it symbolizes a mother and the relationship between woman and child. This planet (also known as luminary) speaks to the women in one’s life and their role as nurturer. Fertility, pregnancy and childbirth are also governed by the Moon. We see the Moon casting its silvery glow from our earliest moments when we are stroked and caressed by our mother and felt the tender touch. The placement of Moon in natal chart can therefore be telling nature of relationship with mother.  Our emotions manifest themselves through our being and set the tone for our daily lives. The Moon is party to this continuum, rendering us vital one moment and fragile the next. We’re up and down, naughty or nice, and may laugh wildly or cry at will. Through the Moon’s energy we endeavor to reconcile varied emotions in order to make ourselves complete and one with world. It explains how we react to and receive the world. The Moon also helps us see that which we want and to use memory and past as part of the process. Its our personality.  It spends roughly 2 ½ days in each sign and takes 28 days to circumnavigate the zodiac. It is a feminine energy and rules Cancer and 4^th house. It speaks truly to our emotional self and what we need to feel secure, safe, and nurtured. The moon is where we need to go to restore ourselves or need direction over decisions.

MERCURY: Self expression, communication.

Although he be but little, he is speedy. Named for roman messenger of Gods, Mercury is the smallest besides Pluto. Much like the winged messenger of the Gods, Mercury comes in on feather-light wings and commands us to speak. It rules parts of body that are integral to communication and self expression, including the voice, tongue and hands.  Communication, intellect and awareness are all within Mercury’s domain, as are logic and reasoning, our manner of thinking, and how we create and express our thought processes. Mercury uses clever intellect and relentless curiosity to analyze, sort, and classify, helping us synthesize and articulate complex ideas. Mercurial nature brings to mind restlessness and motion. Rat-at-tat-tat: things happen fast here! Mercury is about quick wit, quick thinking, possibilities, opinions, reasoning, and the ability to rationalize things. Mercurial energy can be good or bad, but it will certainly be energizing. This planet also prompts us to move from one thing to the next and to get answers on both a physical and psychological level. Further, Mercury’s energy is both dexterous and perceptive. Mercury is about short trips: a visit to a neighbor or a friend across town, the workday commute, a weekend getaway. Its position amongst the stars influences the shifts in our thoughts and communications with one another from 1 day to the next. Known for adaptability, fluctuations and changeability, depending on environment. Depending on zodiac, Mercury is in on a given day, thought patterns can be quick, strict, and linear, or slower, creative and intuitive. It is the bridge between brain and nervous system, way bodies react to what brain perceives and vice versa. Ruler of central nervous system, Mercury determines how quickly or slowly we act and react depending on what sign resides in time. Siblings and transportation in general are also within Mercury’s realm. Speaking, writing, books, online communications and learning are all within Mercury’s domain. This planet implores us to express ourselves often and well. When Mercury goes retrograde it is the appearance of traveling backward. However, our communications will be challenged. Mercury is never more than 28 degrees from the sun; it takes about 88 days to complete its orbit of the Sun. Mercury retrogrades often, 3 weeks 3-4 times per year. Retrograde is show in arguments, technological failure and general misunderstandings. It is neither masculine nor feminine energy and assumes the gender of the sign it is in. It rules both Gemini and Virgo, and the third/sixth houses.

VENUS: Love, relationships.

This planet is all about pleasure, especially pleasure shared with someone else. Venus concerns itself with love, romance, and harmony in our emotional attachments, marriages, friendship and other unions (like business partnerships). Healthy dose of femininity to solar system but also hot headed since its the 2^nd closest to Sun, but 2^nd to none. Venus is the hottest planet in solar system. The biggest, brightest planet of love, beauty, and pleasure. You will feel her influence in relationships, attraction to others, our own feelings of desirability, how we express our affections and our responses to arts and all that is beautiful in the world. Venus is content to spread happiness and tenderness, all the while teaching us how to love and appreciate others and the things that we possess. We appear attractive and we attract others, thanks to Venus’ energy. Socializing with and relating to others are important to this planet. Beauty is also strongly associated with Venus. The arts, music, dance, drama and literature, and a sense of the aesthetic fall within realm of Venus. Venus beseeches us to indulge in our senses and revel in the beauty of our world. This planet is inextricably linked to retirement, culture, charm, and grace. Venus also deals with the pleasure we derive from our possessions. Luxuries (jewelry, paintings, expensive cars), good food and drink, a beautiful home and a sense of refinement all please Venus’ interests. It’s a sensual, though not necessarily sexual world a star as Venus is concerned. Venus takes 225 days to complete its orbit of the zodiac. It is never more 47 degrees from the Sun. It is feminine energy and rules both Taurus and Libra, and the 2^nd and 7^th houses. Venus governs things we spend our money on in pursuit of sensory gratification. If you have expensive taste or problems with impulse control, you can probably look to the placement of Venus in birth chart for explanation. Venus is also responsible for stealing the wits of the wise and allows pleasure to take precedence over self discipline.

MARS: Activity, courage, how we assert ourselves, and get motivated.

Mars is the action planet of the zodiac, the ruler of passion, ambition, and will. This red planet should be pretty fiery and Mars doesn’t disappoint. Energy, passion, drive and determination are all right up Mars’ alley. This planet commands you (yes, Mars rules military) to stand up, be noticed and get things done – sitting on the sidelines belongs somewhere else in heavens. Simply put, Mars speaks to the power and confident expression of the individual. Ambition and competition are also within Mars’ realm. Whether it is at work or on the field of play, Mars encourages us to face challenges and to be our best or better. Aggression is part of the plan here, although Mars also values courage and honor. Assertion and a daring, fearless nature please this planet. Fire under our ass, provides adrenaline charged boost of energy that fuels movement. Impassioned spirit often manifests when we’re racing to meet deadline. It is important to note that Mars’ energy can be constructive or destructive. God of War in ancient times, Mars could be brutally violent. Mars is especially connected to aggression, how quick tempered we are and how temper is expressed. While this energy still emanates from the planet, it also asks us to harness this force for good. Do you let feelings bubble under surface until they boil over and lash out with verbal venom or physical, cry or shout? Stamina, ambition, and achievement are all part of Mars mantra. Depending on what zodiac sign Mars is traveling through, we Earthlings will feel shifts in energy. Mars and Leo are energy, impulsive. Mars and Taurus are slow and steady. Mars placement in birth determines what spurs you into action and what action looks like for you as individual. Mars rules our sexuality and sexual energy and governs weapons, accidents and surgery (the last 2 illustrating yin and yang nature of this planet). In the end, however, the energy of Mars can be quite useful if used properly. It takes two years for Mars to complete its orbit through zodiac. It is masculine energy and rules both Aries and Scorpio and the first and eighth houses.

JUPITER: Luck, generosity, opportunity.

Jupiter is the thinking person’s planet. It is the ruler of luck, growth, and wisdom as the biggest planet. Planet of abundance and expansion It is the guardian of the abstract mind, this planet rules higher learning and a yen for exploring ideas, both intellectually and spiritually. Anything with growth and prosperity is his terrain. Placement of Jupiter in natal chart determines ways individual experiences growth, luck and in what parts of life. This generous planet governs expansion, encouraging us to widen our scope and broaden our horizons through philosophy, spirituality and education. Jupiter also points to natural talents and abilities. In the more spiritual realm, Jupiter lords over religions and philosophy. The search for answers is what Jupiter proposes and if it means spanning the globe to find them, well, that’s probably why Jupiter also rules long distance travel. Telling of one’s tendencies towards travel and higher learning. Indicates one’s willingness to take risks and other grand actions in pursuit of something more, whatever that something may be. The luckiest time, when Jupiter is in same element as in your natal chart. In keeping with this theme, Jupiter compels us to assess our ethical and moral values, it also addresses our sense of optimism. Luck and good fortune are associated with Jupiter for good reason. This is a kind and benevolent planet, one that wants us to grow and flourish in a positive way. Jupiter maybe judge and jury, but it is mostly an honorable helpmate, seeing to it that we’re on right path. While our success, accomplishments, and prosperity are all within Jupiter’s realm, this largeness can at times deteriorate into laziness and sloth (Jupiter at its worst is associated with weight gain). More often than not, however, Jupiter will guide us down the primrose path. Leisure time is also 1 of Jupiter’s past times. Sports of all kinds, games of chance, and a stroll in the park with the family pet (Jupiter loves animals). These are all ruled by this planet. Finally, Jupiter often presages great wealth, material and otherwise. Takes Jupiter about 12 years to circle the zodiac (the planet visits an average of 1 sign a year). It is a masculine energy and rules both Sagittarius and Pisces, as well as 9^th and 12^th houses.

SATURN: Discipline, ambition, and commitments.

Saturn doesn’t make things easy. That’s the role of task master of the zodiac. As ruler of responsibility, discipline, and time Saturn keeps a watchful eye over everything. Saturn commands us to get to work and work hard. Discipline and responsibility are important to this planet, yet if we’re eager to conquer the world that is ok too. Much like Father Time, Saturn implores us to look at the clock (its glyph, after all, is the sickle of Chronos, God of time). There is a time for everything we want to do and there are limits. Those limitations are important to Saturn, and we must learn to manage them. Restrictions are the province of this planet, as is any form of discipline or delay. In keeping with the passage of time, Saturn governs old age along with the lessons it teaches us. Learning life’s lessons is key to this planet, in keeping with its role as a teacher. The majesty of older age also brings with it a certain sense of tradition, conventionality (our learned patterns of behavior) and wisdom. Saturn is mindful of these characteristics. Saturn influences how we manage, control, and maintain stability in our lives. As farthest planet from Earth discovered by unaided eye, Saturn’s presence in our lives on Earth is a strong one. Place for everything and everything in its place. Influences sense of responsibility, our ability to persevere and self discipline, patience and tendencies towards optimism, pessimism or realism. Saturn’s placement indicates a natural of sense of responsibility and how you handle life’s difficulties and restrictions. This planet oversees tough job watching over our shadow sides, parts of ourselves we repress, bottle up, or otherwise hide or avoid. This planet applauds our perseverance and the fact that we’ve withstood the test of time. This senior status further brings with it a measure of authority and Saturn lords over that as well. Structure, order and the way in which we conduct our affairs are all ruled by this ringed planet. Contraction and the reining in of assets are also important here. Lastly, Saturn again in its role as teacher concerns itself with karma and the lessons which past experiences might bring. It takes Saturn 28-30 years to complete its orbit of the zodiac. This planet has a masculine energy and rules both Capricorn and Aquarius, and 10^th & 11^th houses. Saturn is time, regulations, and restrictions. A good day symbolizes hardwork, professional achievement, and steadfast resilience. A bad is harsh and unemotional, forcing us to learn through tough love and difficult challenges. This planet does have an odd way of showing affection, Saturn does have best interest in mind.

URANUS: Innovation, rebellion, and change.

This planet was not discovered until 1781 and as 1 of the outermost planets, it moves rather slowly through the zodiac. The ruler of change and originality, Uranus itself was a surprise and unexpected and therefore represents outsides and misfits of the world. Uranus symbolizes technology, rebellion, and innovation. The result is that its effect is felt more generationally than individually.  As a generational and modern planet, Uranus brings with it a new way of looking at things and its approach is best met with an expanded consciousness. Originality, inventions, computers, cutting edge technologies and future events are all ruled by this planet. Uranus sees no need for the status quo; preferring instead to break with tradition and create a new mold. While the building blocks (science, electricity) are safe here, this planet would rather focus its gaze on a new world order. To that end, rebellion, revolution, dictators, an autonomous state and free will all full under the area of this planet. No one will ever characterize Uranus as subtle. This is the planet that coaxes erratic and bizarre behavior and byzantine schemes. A Bohemian, utopian society is more in keeping with Uranus’ bent, as are humanitarian ideals. Freedom and creativity are important to this planet; astrology is also with its realm. Lastly, in keeping with its sudden, sometimes violent and often unexpected manner, Uranus rules earthquakes and natural disasters. It takes Uranus 84 years to complete its trip around the zodiac. It is an androgynous energy and rules Aquarius and the 11^th house. Uranus is considered to be the higher octave of Mercury and the 1^st of the transcendental planets. Uranus has a deep seated energy with personality, unconscious purpose revealed over lifetime. Surprise you constantly, unveil sides of you, you don’t know you had. How comfortable you fit into society, how normal or unconventional you are as a person, based on birth chart. As a planet of the future, Uranus is always looking forwards and shaking up the order of things where he sees fit in order to allow balance of stability and growth on Earth and within you as individual. As a revolutionary planet hates rules and is always eager to facilitate ground breaking, dynamic change. Uranus can have surprising effects, loves shock value. Uranus’ influence teaches us flexibility, adaptability, and the importance of change for growth and progress.

NEPTUNE: Mysticism, intuition, imagination, and healing

Neptune was discovered in 1846 and is the ruler of dreams, illusion and mysticism, subconscious. This planet reminds of power of unseen in Universe and within selves. Its slow orbit around the zodiac ensures that the effect is generational in nature. Neptune governs magical, mysterious vastness of the spiritual unknown. Power exists at intersection of fantasy and reality. Neptune’s glyph is a trident of Poseidon, God of Seas. Much about this planet is fluid (Neptune rules the Oceans of Earth), changeable and illusory in nature. Dreams, illusion, abstract thought and the mysterious are all governed by Neptune. Our spirituality is important to this planet and how we harness that energy for our personal betterment. Neptune invites us to let its energy wash over us and to use a meditative state to gain insights and heightened awareness. Poetry, music, and dance are among trance like activities which this planet favors. This planet’s energy influences intuition, dreams, connection with soul and spirit and soul’s connection with universe. This generational planet is modern.  Neptune does have its slower side, as it rules movies, tv, theater, fashion and all forms of glamor. In essence, Neptune is creating an illusion of what is an enchanting outside and captivating inside. Neptune has a mystique when it doesn’t reveal itself easily. This planet can be a poser too, dabbling in flattery and subversion. The shadow side of Neptune is akin to an aging star who doesn’t make 1 more curtain call. When the lights are low, this planet plays in a netherworld of drugs, alcohol, traces and hypnosis. Neptunian energy reeks of escapism on its darker days, a sea of delusion, hypochondria and abnormality. Sleep and dreams are also lorded over by this planet. It takes Neptune takes 65 years to complete its whirl around the zodiac, spending roughly 14 years at each. It is a feminine energy and rules Pisces and the 12^th house. Neptune is known as higher octave of Venus and is 2^nd of transcendental planets. Because of its slower travel time, the planet is still new, and we don’t know all its influence because it hasn’t traveled through all signs yet. There are shifts in overall attitudes towards the spiritual, the mystic and mysterious and escapism. This planet is a gate keeper of the subconscious boundary within an individual self as well and its influential ability to access subconscious. Neptune is prone to methods of escapism; can often be lost in daydreams and out of the physical world. On a good day, the energy is extremely creative and powerfully psychic. A Bad day means delusional and escapist. When you feel the influence, you can explore imagination, but remember to throw down an anchor. You don’t want to get lost at sea.

PLUTO: Power and transformation.

Pluto is the outermost planet in solar system; farthest from sun. It is the ruler of power, transformation, and rebirth. It symbolizes power, transformation, destruction, and regeneration. It was discovered in 1930, it is a potent pull on humans. Fittingly named after Hades, it symbolizes power, transformation, destruction, and regeneration. With power rooted in darkness, this beguiling planet seamlessly slithers into complex infrastructures, quietly transforming systems from the inside. Pluto has a subtle energy, but its results will hit you like a ton of bricks. Its influence impacts individual and entire generations. In the natal chart, Pluto placement is indicative of: highest and lowest of which mankind is capable. Though its not pretty with Pluto, it will get done. Pluto says out with the old and in with the new and we’d better be ready for it. If we’re not, the planet will simply have us wallow in our misery. Pluto asks us to transcend that which we know, redeem ourselves in the process, and come out stronger as a result. For all that Pluto recreates (governs reproductive system) it also rules destruction, death, obsession, kidnapping, coercion virus and wastes; its not pretty. Pluto influences crime and the underworld, along with many forms of subversive activity (terrorism, dictatorships). This planet is about all that is secret and undercover, that which is hidden from view. Story of good vs evil? Yes. No one will deny Pluto’s power (it rules atomoc power too) and intensity. This planet’s energy is often focused on masses and what the collective will do. Pluto beseeches the masses to look inward (and subconscious) to see what’s there. It may be scary, but Pluto doesn’t care. This planet knows how to push buttons. It takes Pluto approximately 248 years to complete its orbit around the zodiac. Due to the eccentricity of its orbit,  it takes this planet between 12 and 31 years to pass through a sign. It rules Scorpio and the 8^th house. Pluto is last of transcendental planets and is higher octave of Mars. Pluto reminds us that in order for us to manifest change, we must release the past.

CHIRON: The new kid on the block.

The most recently discovered heavenly bodies is a planetoid named Chiron. Chiron is a ruler of suffering, burdens, and rebirth. Its planet is a powerful influence. As a Maverick, it unites paradoxes and extremes. Although there are differences of opinion over the actual classification of this body (some claim it’s a comet or asteroid), its power is widely acknowledged. It was first sighted in 1977 on its trek between Saturn and Uranus. This planet is named after Chiron the Centaur. The Greek Myth says Chiron’s mother is a water nymph who turned self into horse to run from Zeus;  she couldn’t escape and Zeus impregnated her. She gave birth but was shocked to see her newborn was ½ horse, ½ boy. She prayed to the Gods to be a tree and her was wish granted, meaning that both of Chiron’s parents abandoned him. Instead of dwelling on that though he became a skilled teacher and healer. One day while he was handing a poisoned arrow to a student, it dropped and pierced his leg. Since his father was God, he was immortal. He didn’t die but was in terrible pain and he prayed to the Gods to let him die. In gratitude for his teachings, they let him out of his misery and placed him in the sky. Since Chiron is a wounded healter, this planetoid is for everyone who, rather than giving in to despair amid own suffering, reaches out so others will not have to experience the pain they’ve felt. Many people who have had a painful childhood grow up to be psychiatrists or therapists so they can help other people get through same things that hurt them. Parents who have lost children to drunk drivers go on to form support groups so that other parents know they are not alone. These people feel influence of charitable Chiron. It can be healing for a person to help others cope with a pain that they themselves have lived through.

EARTH:

Earth is not part of the natal charts but is a massive effect to all. It manifests itself through tolerance, patience, realism, practicality, productivity, endurance, sensuality.

RULING PLANET.

You already know what parts of life each of the planets rule so you have a head start to understanding the significance of the ruling planet or planets associated with ascending sign. A planet’s qualities can tell you about yourself, what you value and what rules your behavior. For example, if the Rising sign is Gemini, the chart’s ruling planet is Mercury. Thanks to this planet’s influence, the individual is probably talkative, clever, and intelligent. They would be more affected by Mercury’s orbit and movements, especially if in retrograde. It is a lot to take in, but don’t let the details of a birth chart deter you from getting yours drawn. By combining all this, you can get hope, guidance, reassurance, and confirmation.

HOUSES

There are twelve Astrological Houses on the wheel of the birth chart. Each represents a different area of life and personalities. The combination of what they represent are the traits and influences of zodiac signs and/or planets that reside in them. These combinations will point to specific aspects of your personality. How we manage wealth, how we feel about family, and how we communicate.

Astrological houses can help you understand compatibility with other people in your life. Looking at the signs in the seventh houses can tell you a lot about what you both need in your relationship.  If you have Jupiter in the 4^th house (family), it will have a much different influence than if you have it in the 9^th house (philosophy). Having an action oriented sign such as Aries in a more serious house like the 10^th house (social status) might mean you aren’t as interested in more static roles where you will be at a desk all day.

Like a clock, each ‘hour’ is a different house.

The first house is the Ascendant and represents the zodiac sign that was ascending on the Eastern horizon at the exact time and location of your birth. Every other sign can then be placed counter clockwise in the rest of the houses. This is especially helpful if you are not fully connected with the Sun sign. The energy of the house tells you a theme and the sign in that house, based on your birth chart, will tell you traits that may apply to the theme.

1^ST HOUSE: SELF.

This reveals the initial impressions you make on others. You might show more of the sun sign traits to those who are closer to you and who know you better, but the first house is what you let the world see. You can learn a lot about personality and ego by studying what’s going on in your first house. Traditionally, the ruling sign of this house is Aries, and ruling planet is Mars.  It’s a Cardinal quality house and belongs to element of Fire. A sign on the cusp of the first house is a Rising Sign. Here there is probably more significance regarding your appearance and how you conduct yourself than in your Sun sign. In addition to your outward personality, the 1^st house also represents the environment that you grew up in; the nurturing that goes with your inherent nature. Studying the first house helps you understand your role in the family and perhaps even in your community. This brings you insight as to how others see you and what influenced your childhood. It doesn’t just indicate who you are but also who you’ll grow to be. The house of self is the inner or hidden self as well as the face you present to others.

You can understand how you are perceived by others a lot better when you have an understanding of this house. You can also use this to your advantage to counteract the more negative tracts you might project. It gets to the core of your being, but not the whole you. We understand the first house, Ascendant and any planets that are active in that area of chart are what allow you to put on a front. The outer mask doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Everyone wears some kind of a mask at one time or another. There are parts of yourself that you don’t want everyone else to see, parts that you keep reserved for those closest to you. The persona that you create from first house will serve you well. It helps you on your journey towards authentic self and true empowerment. The mask for strangers or acquaintances that don’t have to know you well will be able to pick up on these characteristics about you.

2^nd HOUSE.

A sign on cusp of this house and any planets in it, this reveals your income, assets, talents, and attitudes towards them. You can discover a lot about your self-esteem and your sense of worth with close examination of your second house. The 2nd house truly holsters the info given in the 1^st house. Its all about possessions, money, even attitudes towards wealth and your ability to acquire it. It can show you the talents to harness to make money and be successful. Its all revealed in this section of your chart. It shows where your ethics and values lie regarding money, needing it, learning it, and having it. The second house is one of three that gives information about you career, other two being 6^th and 10^th houses. Traditionally, the ruling sign of this house is Taurus and the ruling planet of this house is Venus. It’s a Fixed house and belongs to Earth element, which points to assets. People often fefer to the second house as a ‘house of possessions.’ Possessions don’t necessarily have to mean things that you own. They can also refer to the innate skills and talents you possess. When someone refers to people as possessing character and charm, all of that is reflection of the second house. It is more appropriate, however, to refer to it as a house of assets, rather than the house of possession. It is advised that you master your mindset regarding money and things that it can provide, as well as acknowledging your strengths and talents to put them to work for you. The process for how you will come into your own and how you will find yourself is found in 2^nd House.

Actual physical possession and tangible things are also revealed by the 2^nd house. This can depend, however, on the sign and planets that are ruling it. The capability of earning and losing is reflected here, where you invest, and your potential income is also implied. You can find out if you will buy cars, houses, or even invest in the stock market or collectibles. The 2^nd house can also shed some light on the way you budget, your income, and how you perceive your own levels of wealth. As a reminder, not all wealth has to do with money or investments. The way that you utilize your time and energy is valuable too. The 2^nd house relates to what you value and what makes you wealthy. Your possessions say a lot about you, your social standing, and how you prioritize what prosperity means to you. You could believe that money is the root of all evil or you could resent those who have more than they do. There are those who live to accumulate things and there are those who see their possessions and investments as minor compared to their own personal value. Additionally, the 2nd house in an astrological birth chart helps you determine what your love values are and how best to use your skills and talents to get what you went out of your time on the earth. What goes on in the 2^nd house supports what’s happening in the 1^st house of natal chart. When the 2^nd house is challenged, you may have more obstacles to rise above than someone else when it comes to your income and how to get it working for you. Maybe you’ve got a wonderful skill set or talent for doing something, but you just can’t seem to get any recognition. 1^st house shows what potential you have in life, the 2^nd house shows you a pathway to getting there. This is also the house that shows where, and frequently how, you will have to apply yourself to make most of natural assets.

3^rd HOUSE: COMMUNICATION.

This house deals with communication and travel, as well as immediate family environment, including siblings. Your early education is reflected here. Schooling and attitude towards learning, experiences had there and the memories that you made. This house also pertains to short distance travel, places you could go there and back again within a day. Where you went in your neighborhood, communities that appeal to you, and your interactions with the people there is also illustrated in this area of the chart. How well you get on with siblings is also hinted at here. Although to really analyze individual relationships you might want to consider investing in a reading. The sign on the cusp that rules this house indicates how you communicate with others, as will any planets in this house. Traditionally, the ruling house is Gemini and the ruling planet of this house is Mercury. It’s a Mutable house and belongs to element of Air. As the house of communication, it deals with more than just the words you use though. It is every way you communicate and interact with others. It sheds light on your internal dialogue or the way you speak to yourself. It will determine if it will lead you to success or if you have challenges there. It is deliberate interactions, whether positive or negative. All of these interchanges are ways you communicate with environment and world around you. It is all part of early learning, part of becoming who you will grow into being. It also deals with travel. Unlike the 9^th house, which has to do with long distance travel and intercultural exchanges, the third house governs short term travel. It has a lot to do with the younger years and the influence they had on you. Most of your time will be spent  close to home, whatever home might have been at time. The world was what you could see and observe, and how you communicated with it was how you learned. Your neighborhood and the people in it, your local school, your peers there, and siblings who were tied to you either by blood or because you slept under the same roof; these are more consistent teachers than any intermittent longer trips you may have made. School, formal and informal, is where you learn to form opinions, where you make judgments on what you like and don’t like and where values are established. The sign and planets in 3^rd house equals foundations for everything you think. Studying them helps you to uncover where you may have blockages that need to be released, especially as you outgrow habits and judgments that were established in your childhood and teenage years. Here you can also find insight on family: when you’re young, you’re greatly influenced by your environment. Siblings, home life, the neighborhood where you played and the people you interacted with. When you’re a young child, naturally curious, you mimic speech patterns and actions of those closest to you. All of this helps to form you character. You form relationships with siblings in your early life and you’re an influence on them too, whether you realize it or not. You and your siblings can play roles and recreate patterns from your childhood even as grownups. As an adult, the 3^rd house is a great place to look for feedback on your early years. It can determine what needs to be changed in the here and now to make improvements. It is vital in providing information about your communication style, desire to travel, your experiences with education and your early interactions with your family. All that made you who you are today.

4^TH HOUSE: HOUSE OF HOME AND FAMILY.

Anything to do with traditions, family, and home is ruled by the 4^th house of your astrology birth chart. Home in this instance means not just a building, but the environment within your home too. The cusp of the 4^th house is the 2^nd cardinal point of the birth chart with Ascendant being first. The name given to this point is Imum Coeli or IC for short. The 4^th house relates to parents. This part of your birth chart reveals much about your spirituality and the cultures and customs that are important to you. The Cardinal house is ruled by the Sun sign of Cancer and moon. It brings structure. Most people think of home and think of a building into which they retreat for security, comfort, and replenishment. It’s a place where they can relax and unwind, where they can lock the doors and feel safe in their beds. The nature of this place is reflected in 4^th house of astrology too. Its all about stability and security. It also expands to include the geographical location, even the type of soil and the flowers and other plants that grow there. This area of chart does hint at an actual building you call home, but its really got more to do with the emotional connection to what supported you there. It does also show your physical real estate. A house has to sit on plot of land, even if you’re only renting an apartment. That land is your real estate, all of earth provides you with the soil and rocks and minerals. Your relationship with the land and the other life forms that dwell there is also echoed in the 4^th house. You have to have some kind of grounding energy, some kind of base, something that you return to in times of stress. Perhaps your favorite place is the coastline, or maybe its at the mouth of a cave, or on the front porch of grandfather’s farmhouse. Whatever your relationship with houses and dwellings, you perceive your kinship with the land under your feet. It is impossible to live on this earth without being connected to it in some way, to some particular place. What does home mean to you? Think of home, where does the heart go? Your parents, the house you grew up in, your family environment, our religious beliefs, your cultural background, your ancestors. All of these are your foundations and give you the roots to grow into who you are. The home you grew up in and environment around that place is indicated in 4^th house. Although it’s less to do with the building, and more to do with the support – or lack of it – that you find in place that you call home. It can reveal if you think you had a happy childhood or not. The 4^th house is your refuge! It has the potential to be a very comforting place. Whether you actually return to a childhood home, revisit it in your memories, or you immerse yourself in your spiritual customs and traditions. This area of your chart represents what makes you feel secure. When you leave your parents’ home, you have to set up your own home base. You create that personal sanctuary for yourself, and perhaps pass on your own traditions to your own children. The sign on the cusp of the 4^th house indicates what reaches deep into the center of your being, to your core, and where you find own roots and stability. It reveals how you feel about tradition and family and how these have played out in your life.

5^TH HOUSE: HOUSE OF PLEASURE.

This house deals with romantic relationships, your hobbies, how you spend your leisure time, your inherent luck and all aspects of your creativity. Children are indicted here too because you create them. Even if your children are adopted, you will still create an influence in their lives and give them a space to become who they are. This isn’t a place to find your life partner though. The romance alluded to here in the fifth house is more pointed at the type of people you date, our brief encounters, how you want a lover to treat you, what turns you on, things that make you attracted to someone. Your creativity is highlighted here, for this house shows how you enjoy spending time and what activities you have potential to do well at. Its quite a lucky house, but it goes without saying that you create your own luck, its not just written in the stars. It is also a Fixed house and belongs to the element of Fire. Its ruled by Sun sign Leo and by the Sun. This house brings out your individuality and might even make you a bit of a rebel. It shows you where you’ll find your pleasure, what kind of people you want to spend time with, and the activities you’ll delight in doing. Children are a big part of love and marriage for many people. Through romance and pleasure, you create living legacy, where your blood and your spirit flows through your kids. Even if your children are adopted or fostered, you’re still creating a space where they can thrive and grow; you’re still molding their characters and personality. This house sheds light on your romantic life. Other people besides children are also indicated in the 5^th house. Your romantic pursuits, public figures who infatuate you, anything that turns on the pleasure zone is influenced by the 5^th house in your birth chart. Who do you love? It might not necessarily be real person, but an archetype; what do you love doing. One reason that luck is often associated with the 5^th house is because of the thrill people get when they win the jackpot. Lets face it, people play the lottery for the expectation, the hope that they might win, the adrenaline rush when their number is being called. Gambling as an addiction is more of a 12^th house issues. This reveals hobbies and activities that you actually enjoy doing. Signs and planets here might indeed indicate that you’re talented or artistic or good at sports but if you don’t like football or would rather read a book than play piano, then it doesn’t matter how good you are at it. If you enjoy doing something that you’re completely useless at, but you have fun anyway, then that’s great. Remember: this house deals with children and includes inner child. Let that inner child come out to play, even if its not good at what it wants to do. Look hard enough, you’ll see that even that is reflected in sign that rules 5^th house, as well as any planets there and aspects to those planets. This is an area where creative endeavors, things we enjoy doing and people who bring satisfaction might all be found.

6^TH HOUSE.

This house deals with your environment and living situation. It includes home, your pets, work environment, work commute, colleagues and your relationships with them. Daily health is hinted at in this house, though not a substitute for the care of your doctor. It is indicative of your attitude towards health and how you approach wellness rather than prediction of health issues. It is not the house where you’ll find out about your career or finances (2^nd or 10^th). The insight here is what professions you might enjoy and how you relate to the work environment. This house also shows how you can be of service, either to yourself or others. Though it won’t tell you where your skills and talents lie or how to use them in career, it does have a lot to share about mindset and outlook when it comes to working. If you spend a lot of time at your job, then it has a profound influence on you. This is all about your attitude toward daily life. From the time the alarm clock rings until you close your eyes at night, you’re busy doing things. Whether they’re work related, housework, taking care of kids, volunteering, busy doing something, even if you’re only chilling and watching TV. The environment of daily routine is reflected in 6^th house. It represents your mindset towards routine. The planets here are going to be of particular interest because they’ll color your outlook. You might even consider this house to be the one that sets the mood for your life and it certainly exposes a lot about gut responses. You won’t function at your best if you are letting daily life or your work get the better of you. Look at the word disease, it is actually a compound word; dis = having a negative or opposite influence, and lease which means lack of difficulty. Disease means absence of calmness of balance in your life and that reflects in the body. Many of today’s diseases are a result of modern life. Sometimes a crisis such as war or a natural disaster upsets the balance of health. How you deal with the triumphs and tribulations that life throws at you is also uncovered in 6^th house. The word ‘crisis’ rooted in Greek language = means grow. This is why so many people tell you that your challenges are what make you a stronger person. They can be when you face them properly. Pay particular attention to planets that are here because this isn’t any easy placement for them.  The patterns of behavior that you establish in this house will greatly influence your choice of partner and the 7^th house picks up journey. Due to this house’s influence, you can tell if you are living a balanced life and how you might find an environment that is suited to your temperament and personality.

7^TH HOUSE: HOUSE OF PARTNERSHIPS.

This house pertains to your life partner, but also business or other types of partnerships too; any one to one pairing in life. The cusp of this house is opposite the Ascendant. The 1^st house is all about you while the 7^th is about the other people in your life. The cusp of the 7^th house is called the Descendant. The 5^th house shows what kind of people you are attracted to in order to have fun, while the 7^th house indicates those with whom you’d like a serious partnership. Your attitudes to commitment will be found here too. It is a pretty personal house, and it will also deal with the 1:1 relationships with people who don’t like you, as well as pointing to your enemies. The Cardinal house belongs to the element of Air; its ruled by the Sun sign Libra and planet Venus. It is easy to think the 7^th is the house of marriage and it is. But marriage isn’t just two spouses bound together. Marriage means a combination of two or more elements; it defines a partnership that doesn’t have to relate to romance. Planets in this house and the sign on the cusp divulge a lot of information about how you feel about commitment. The Ascendant explores the relationship with yourself and explores interpersonal relationships with another person. The purpose is to examine how you interact with another individual for the purpose of reaching a goal or accomplishing something. These can be beneficial or detrimental. How many times have you met someone and thought you were going to be close friends, only to find out the more you got to know each other, the more you disliked each other? It is all part of the journey of the 7^th house. Its important to note that failed relationships either become teachers or opponents. That 1:1 relationship is still there, even if you have decided that you can’t stand each other. It may be a difficult concept but one that needs to be understood to grasp true potential of this house. The 11^th house is more about friends, but it does arise here. You’ll find glimpses of your childhood playmates that are still your best friends through adulthood and its where you’ll find that the residue of those you couldn’t stand when you were younger still stings. People who come into your life from a7th house aspect are very different from those interact with you from 1^st house. Remember, Ascendant is part of mask that you wear and what happens is that the 7^th house strips away that mask and has a lot to teach you if you’re willing to learn. Any person who arouses a strong emotional response from you, whether rooted in pleasure or abhorrence has triggered something in 7^th house. No matter what someone may make you feel, they’ve opened the door for you to do some living exploration as to why you feel that way. If you want to know why you feel the way you feel, look at the planets here, and then study the aspects. What you uncover here will be vital information especially when it comes to delving deeper into the mysteries of the 8^th house.

8^TH HOUSE.

This house is opposite the 2^nd house; which deals with your money, income, strengths, assets, and talents. It also pertains to other people’s money and assets, which covers a wide area. Joint finances reside here but so do unpleasant financial issues such as debt or alimony. This house is very misunderstood, as it is sometimes called the house of sex but its much more than that. It takes the pairing from the 7^th house and intensifies it. The 7^th house is where you find your relationships and mindset towards them. The 8^th house is how coupling manifests itself, a sign on the cusp and any planets involved will color that manifestation. This 1 of 3 relationship houses, the other 2 being the 5^th and 7^th houses. The 5^th is the ideology of love, 7^th is commitment and 8^th is conjoining them through sex as well as finances. It’s a Fixed house, and it belongs to the element of Water. It is ruled by the Sun sign Scorpio and by the planet Pluto. While it does deal with sex, it is not all about it, but even when actual intimacy isn’t referred to it’s a good metaphor. This is the area of the chart where the cycle of life continues, where you reap the harvest that your skills and possessions have to brought to you. This is also the place where combining takes place, assets as well as your physical bodies. La petite mort is an expression used to politely refer to the orgasm or sexual climax; it translates as the little death. It represents the rapture that is felt at the moment of climax when the body responds so strongly with pleasure that all senses are temporary numb. Its of interest that sexual ecstasy is seen as dying a little, particularly when studying the 8^th house. This house sheds light on death, as it is just as much a part of life as birth is and its not to fear. Death is represented in the 8^th house, but so is birth. It is all regeneration – something that this house represents well. It starts with the little death at climax which has the potential to create new life and ends with actual physical death. Every ending has to have a beginning. Every beginning starts with something else ending just as in the cycle of life. Sex, death, and rebirth are all part and parcel of that cycle. They’re represented in your chart by the house on cusp and planets in the 8^th.

9^TH HOUSE.

This is the house of philosophy and is directly opposite the third house which deals with short travel, neighborhood, and early schooling. The 9^th house pertains to travel to far away places, your more distant environment, and later education. It Indicates how you’re likely to grow. This area of your chart reveals a lot about your philosophies on life and the attitudes towards different cultures. Like the third house it is the house of communication ; it is a house of writers, poets, and publishers. It is where you explore surroundings and push out boundaries a bit. It is ruled by Jupiter and the Sun sign is Sagittarius. Jupiter is known as having great benefit and usually gives a pretty good vibe in the 9^th house because of it. Its energy is forward moving and forward thinking; its here where you explore the boundaries of your inner horizons. It’s a Mutable house and belongs to element of water. There is more to communication than the spoken word. The 9^th house rules all forms of writing including literature, journalism, and publishing. You can learn about the rest of the world by how you communicate with it and how it communicates with us. The education that we get from those exchanges has the potential to be more influential than any formal learning. Believe it or not, this house also refers to mysticism and divination, and is a form of communication too. Even your dreams are represented here, for that’s your unconscious mind communicating with you while you’re asleep. It shows your potential to grow. You know that there’s more to life than what you’ve experienced so far and you want to taste it. The house on the cusp and planets in 9^th house will provide great clues as to your desire to explore life and your mindset towards your intellectual process. You need to learn how to assimilate information that resonates with you and let go of ideas and values you’ve outgrown. Whether you’re embracing something new or releasing something that’s old, either situation presents you with a new set of challenges and answers.

10^TH HOUSE.

This is a house of social status, including career. It’s the work that is related to houses 6^th and 2^nd. These three houses work together in your birth chart to bring successes or challenges. The geometrical angles form a positive astrology aspect known as a trine. Your vocation, place in community, how society sees you and people in authority are all represented in 10^th house. This is also 1 of the houses that suggest parental influence, the other being 4^th.  Consumerism and how you value the money you earn is hinted at here. Anything to do with status and your social standing is rooted in this area of your chart. It makes a perpendicular angle to the Ascendant and the cusp of the 7^th house, which is sometimes a challenging aspect. The 10^th house cusp is a very important point in natal chart. The traditional ruler of the house is Saturn and the Sun sign Capricorn. It’s a Mutable house and it belongs to the element of Earth. This house is important when it comes to you finding your dream job. You examined your innate skills and talents in 2^nd house, and you evaluated your attitudes towards your work environment in the 6^th house. The 10^th house is where it all comes together. The 4^th house rules your private life, family values, and traditions. In the 10^th , all this comes into public eye. This is where your drive, your ambition, and what you’re willing to do to become successful will be revealed. Social standing has a lot to do with your career. You shouldn’t depend on it, but it stands to reason that the more successful you are professionally, the more your accomplishments will color your position in society. The money you earn buys you a bigger house in a nice neighborhood for example, or allows you to be philanthropic with your assets. Keep in mind, if you’re misusing your resources, such as being arrogant or greedy with them, that’s going to affect your social standing. You’re not automatically going to be loved just because you’re wealthy. Nor are you automatically going to be shunned because you’re not. Character is everything. Many of your accomplishments happen because of others who helped you and that can’t be overlooked. This is where your attitudes towards those in a higher social standing are found. How you respond to those farther up the chain of command directly influences chances of charm. Authorization doesn’t always have to point to another person or group of people. You have to take on responsibility for your actions. As you climb the career ladder, more and more authority is thrust upon you. It stands to reason that with all of this authority and prestige surrounding the 10^th house, a lot can be uncovered about your own ego and identity. In previous decades, a person’s career and social status were often handed down from a parent. A farmer’s son was expected to grow up to work the farm and take over. A King’s heir was groomed to be the ruler of the land. The way that you acknowledge your role in society is indicated in 10^th house. May have many assets and be wealthy, but like Midas, throw yourself into acquiring material wealth, rather than nurturing people, so you could grow lonely. Indeed proper balance between the ID and the ego is necessary for you to be successful in society. This is a very career driven house that gives lot of information about professional status, social standing as well as ego’s attitude towards authority. This house can definitely point to how successful you will be in life.

11^TH HOUSE: HOUSE OF FRIENDS.

Your charitable acts and ambitions, dreams and hopes, and those close to you who can help reach goals are all indicated by the sign on the cusp and planets in the area. What you seek from friends is represented here too. Clubs, groups, and social organizations, causes you champion, charities you support, and how you help others is reflected in the house. Opposite 11, is the 5^th house which brings creativity and insight. The 11^th house is where you manifest it. House also shows you what kinds of people you’re attracted to. Where the 5^th house hinted at what makes you attracted to an individual, the 11^th house reveals why you’re attracted to groups. It mirrors social interactions. The traditional ruler of this house is Uranus and sun sign of Aquarius. It is a Fixed house and belongs to the element of Air. It is known as the house of friends and with good reason. There is an old saying ‘strength in numbers and another one that says ‘no man is an island.’ You have to have social interaction in order to succeed. This area of your chart also details what kind of friend you are and what kind of friends you have. Planets that have challenging aspects in this house are of particular interest. They expose where you’ve got work to do in order to find the social relationships you seek and the kind of organizations where you’ll feel at home. Any group of like minded people is defined here. The emphasis will be on what you accomplish together. It could be something huge, something that makes a global difference, or it could just be something on a smaller level. Group support is important in life because it enables everyone to grow. You’ll be drawn to an organization that champions a cause that you believe in, or that promotes an idea that’s important to you. You join with those who believe in the same things and want to achieve the same goals and you work together to make that happen. In this way, the 11^th house represents philanthropy and humanitarianism at its best. This house defines your goals and represents your aspirations. You need guidance and the support of others to get where you want to go. Once you learn about your ideals in the 9^th house, then establish social status in 10^th house you can reap rewards in the 11^th house. By interacting with others, you add meaning to own life and substance to the lives of loved ones and acquaintances. Oftentimes, its through organizations and the encouragement of others that you have the courage to persists towards goals. It is easy to give up or procrastinate when going solo, but it is harder to do it when people are cheering you onward. Sometimes you upset the status quo with your persistence. The input of those around you sparks and brings out your self expression and the way you direct it is emphasized in this area of your chart. Use your talents to push forward in a way of manifesting your destiny. The 11^th house can be a very friendly and busy place, or a very isolated and lonely one. It all depends on how you perceive your uniqueness and how choose to associate with others. It is a very interactive place in your chart and because it mirrors the 5^th house, it is often a place where good or bad luck will materialize. The Energies here set you up for what happens in 12^th house, where hidden agendas and past life influences reside.

12^TH HOUSE: LAST HOUSE.

The Last house is the house of unconscious. Anything hidden resides here: anxieties, fears, your unconscious responses to your life, as well as your undiscovered skills and talents. This is where you hide things from others, including secretive behaviors and private activities. It is also the house of endings. You need to clear out what’s bogging you down in order to make way for something new. Newness also corresponds with the Ascendant and first house. Any planets in this house are likely to make you feel misunderstood, because their energy is hidden. It is not all doom and gloom. Is is also a very romantic house; where dreams and fantasies reside. The traditional ruler is Neptune and the Sun sign is Pisces. It is a Mutable house and belongs to the element of water. It deals with confinement, the hidden, and pertains to where you feel stuck. It refers to jails, hospitals, or other institutions, but more often than not, helps uncover charms that you’ve put on yourself. While its where you’ve limited yourself, you can also free yourself if you choose. This is where the residual energy from other houses land. Think of it as a circle, with the first house being in the beginning, other houses being stepping stones along the way, and the 12^th house is the ending. It is where your unrealized potential awaits for you to unlock it. The things that you keep secret can lead you to triumph or bind you in failure. You’ve heard of the term ‘secret of my success’ that’s because successful people don’t share everything there is to know about why they’re successful. You have to keep some things hidden so their ideas and their formulas are protected. Not all secrets are good though. The 12^th house is the house of secretive behaviors. It is an area of the chart that might indicate addictions. Addictions are often secretive because people don’t want others to know how dependent they are on something. This is a house of secret enemies, unlike the open enemies of the 7^th house. Its also the things you never dreamed you could do. Both illusion and delusion reside here and it is up to you on which one you’re going to embrace. Escapism of all sorts are attributed to this house, but very often that evasion fuels creativity. Who hasn’t heard of artists and writers locking themselves away, in order to tap into their imagination and self expression. The 12^th house has what it takes for you to be very creative and productive indeed; it takes work and discipline. It indicates endings, naturally, as it’s the last house. People often look at the 12^th house for karma and past life influences. The last thing you brought into this lifetime with you. It is also a place for bringing things to a close particularly when a planet is making a transit to this area of your chart. It is quite advantageous to analyze the transits and see what aspects are being made. What needs to be cleared out before new cycle starts?  Lessons the 12^th house teaches are profound, often some of the most misunderstood of astrology birth chart.

READING YOUR BIRTH CHART WHEEL

The Birth chart wheel is composed of the zodiac wheel containing planets, positioned amongst a wheel of 12 houses and you at center. The birth chart wheel is made up of two circles that are each divided into 12 slices. The first circle is the zodiac wheel and the 12 slices represent Earth. We know that in actuality, planets revolve around the sun, but astrology studies how the solar system interplays with Earth. From the viewpoint on Earth, the Sun appears to travel around Earth, passing through each of the 12 zodiac signs. The Sun spends about 1 month in each sign, as it travels towards the next sign. The Zodiac wheel represents the view of heavens sliced into 12 sections. Each section measures 30 degrees with the whole circle measuring 360 degrees. The moon and rest of planets also fit into zodiac wheel, at the point that corresponds to their astronomical position.

Your personal natal chart, the inner circle, represents the coordinates, or exact location, of your birth place. This next circle represents the 12 houses or areas of life. Each slice, each house in that circle, represents a different area and specific function of your life. They are numbered 1-12. The houses wheel is based on ecliptic (apparent path of sun around earth). The point on the ecliptic that was on the eastern horizon at moment of your birth denotes the sign and degrees of the beginning of the 1^st house in chart. This is why an exact birth time is vital for an accurate horoscope. The planets are arranged on the zodiac wheel according to their astronomical position in space. That wheel is laid on top of wheel of houses. Around the outside edge you see where the zodiac sign falls into houses. Slices in the chart represent house divisions, not zodiac sign divisions. The sign divisions don’t line up with house divisions, it is actually rare for that to happen. The joint positioning of 2 wheels depends entirely on the exact time and place of earth. You place the 12 houses in original location. The Wheel of houses should always be laid out like this, with first house on left. The zodiac wheel and planets in heavens is what gets rotated according to birth data. The houses progress counter-clockwise around the chart.

The divider line before each house is the cusp. The degree of measurements labeled around outside edge gives the position of house cusps in relation to the zodiac wheel. Four of those cusps have special names in most house systems. 1^st house cusp is called the Ascendant; the 4^th house cusp is called IC (imum codi). The 7^th house is a cusp called descendant. The 10^th house cusp is MC (medium codi) or midheaven. The Zodiac falls on the ascendant or rising sign. The rising sign is very important as it acts like a filter through which the rest of your chart is sifted. The Rising sign on your birth chart is the sign directly left of center. To understand your own natal chart, you must understand zodiac signs since every chart includes the zodiacs. The sign on the cusp of each house denotes attitudes in the department of life designated by that house. Any planets in the house also affect the affairs in that area. The signs that planets are in will modify how all their attributes are manifested. That is the number next to each planet glyph. The number tells the exact degree of the zodiac sign in which the planet appeared in the heavens at the moment of your birth. The degrees taken from astronomical almanac are called ephemairs. Astrology is amazingly mathematical. Its how to analyze:  planet in conjunction to 1 of your angles, natal chart is horoscope, map of heavens at the moment you were born, the viewpoint of birth coordinates.

When interpreting, the most important thing to remember is synthesis; the entire chart taken as a whole, bringing all the smaller pieces into 1 whole picture of a person. You cannot take 1 piece of the chart and decide it defines entire person. There isn’t one planetary meaning that defines a person. It all plays together and has to be blended together in order to read, understand, and know each separate interpretation. Then you must weave it all together and lace with Rising sign for an accurate picture. Think of people like a Mosaic, made up of tiny individual images. Each planet in the signs and house is a part.

PLANETS IN SIGNS

When looking at the birth chart, take note of what sign you’re seeing. Always take note of Ascendant’s sign (Rising sign) and which house the ascendant’s rule occupies. The Zodiac sign will show how the planet is manifested. The signs are like stained glass windows, through which each planet is expressed. The planet in the sign will focus on the house. Activity is denoted by the planet; it will take place in the arena of your life designated by the house in which that planet falls. Signs are the ‘how,’ or way you do things, planets are the ‘what,’ or the energies of what you like to do, and the houses are the where, or areas of your life.

HOUSE RULERS

The Influencer on each house (in each department of life) is the ruling Planet of the house. The ruling planet of each house in your natal chart is the planet that rules sign on cusp. The sign on each house cusp shows one’s attitude towards the matters of that house, whereas the planets in the house show actual circumstances. The house is influenced by any planets residing in House. The ruling planet of each house in your natal chart is the planet that rules the sign on cusp. The Sign on each house cusp shows one’s attitude towards the matters of that house, whereas planets in the house show actual circumstances. The House is influenced by any planets residing in the House, but also by the ruler of the house. It’s the celestial configuration that took place at the moment of birth. This is a powerful indicator of motivations, drives, preferences, and psychological makeup, but it doesn’t seal your fate. It does show the potential you were born with but what you do with the potential is up to you. Some astrologers mistakenly interpret birth charts by declaring outcomes of drives or external circumstances. To declare things means that it must definitively take place. The correct way to interpret a birth chart is to declare drives, strengths, weaknesses, preferences, needs, tendencies, and so forth. Its about the inner psychological makeup. Outcomes are for the individual to manifest for him/herself. A natal chart never lies but can be read incorrectly. Its not designed to be precise, but to explain the potential and people choose what to do with potential. Remember Aspects; attempting to make an interpretation without aspects is an error. The interpretations for each planet in the sign and house must be modified according to the nature of aspects. Aspects can soften things and bring clarity to otherwise troublesome planetary placements or can bring conflict to pleasant planetary placements. Aspects stimulate planets. Every planet has both easy and difficult manifestations. An example is that the sun’s energy can be expressed as generous pouring forth of self and creativity or prideful arrogance and excessive desire to be special.

Aspects from other planets tell whether energies will be expressed easily and positively or with struggle and conflict. The birth chart interpretation without accounting for aspects is incorrect or at least incomplete. The most important aspects to look for: immediate notice of conjunction to any of 4 angles (ascendant, mc descendant, IC). The planet makes conjunction to one of the angles, influence of that planet may be the strongest influence in the chart. A person will identify very strongly with the traits of that planet. Take notice of conjunctions made by outer plants to the inner. These conjunctions will drastically alter the interpretation for the inner planet by adding its own qualities. An example is when conjunction from Uranus adds rebelliousness and innovation or when a conjunction from Neptune adds confusion or sadness and/or inspiration and magic.

It is a balance of elements and qualities. In a chart, note the element sign of each planet and that of the ascendant and midheaven. Count how many are Fire, Air, Earth, and Water. Count the sun’s and moon’s element as two each, because they are such a strong influence. It is common to have a combination of elements, say 3 or 4 each. However, should you find imbalance, such as 5 or more of an element or 0 to 1 of an element, this may say something about overall temperament of individual. 5 or more of one element will make that the predominant element in individual. It is interesting to note that the predominant element may be different from that of sun sign. In this case, the person will behave even less like their sun sign which is why we cannot define a person simply by sun sign. If the chart is completely lacking in an element, or if there is only 1 planet in an element, it will be considered the weakest element. This same method is used to tally up the balance of qualities (cardinal, fixed, mutable) of each planet, ascendant and midheaven. Only gives subtle information, unless you find a great imbalance such as a complete lack of one quality or 6 or more of 1 quality. Overall, it provides a general guide to deeper self discovery.

ASPECTS

Aspects, indicate how various planetary and sign energies play out. It indicates if struggles or ease. If you don’t acknowledge them, then you will feel incomplete and incorrect. Aspects represent the relationship between two or more planets. The connection always alters interpretation of planets and signs involved. Planets that are in aspect to each other and their interpretations must be blended according to the nature of the aspect. Aspects are special degrees of separation between planets, with respect to Earth. Planets are observed to orbit at different speeds in the approximate same plane in space. As a result of planetary motions, various angles are measured in degrees, arc minutes and arc seconds, all farmed between planets as seen from Earth. Here’s the math: the angle defined as fraction of circle is formed between two lines that intersect at vertex. Earth is at the center of the circle. Imagine a line being drawn from two planets, each to Earth, so that Earth is the vertex of the angle. The number of degrees between two lines connecting two planets with respect to the Earth forms the angular relationship, or aspect between two planets. Aspects considered not only for planets, Sun and Moon, but also for points of Ascendant and Midheaven. On a birth chart, the angular relationships are denoted by a single line connecting two planets in the aspect. A square aspect denoted by line.

Certain degrees of angularity are very important astrology. They are: major aspects; 0 degrees, conjunction; 60 degrees, sextile; 90 degrees, square; 120 degrees, trine; 180 degrees, opposition.

Aspects are given a margin in which they have influence. An example is that square is 90 degrees and two planets that are 95 degrees or 85 degrees apart are still considered to be in the square aspect. It’s a square with an orb of 50. This margin of influence is an orb. The allowable orb is the amount by which 2 planets involved can deviate from the exact degrees of the aspect and still be considered to have an aspect of influence.

Most astrologers use an allowable orb of only 60 for many aspects and two or 3 degrees for minor. An allowable orb is increased to 10 degrees (or 8 degrees), if it includes the sun or moon. This is a matter of preference but in fact, the smaller the orbs are less than 1 degree from being the most potent aspect influences.

The conjunction dynamic has a strong localized potential for expression aligned with a tendency for direct action and self dramatization. Its two planets in conjunction blended together, fused and intensified. As long as they get along, its good. But if they are in compatible, then it will be inharmonious.

Each aspect can be defined as a circle divided by a number. A full circle is 360 degrees. To avoid confusion, notice that the astrology chart is divided into 12 signs of 30 degrees each. The square aspect of 90 degrees will be between planets that are in same degree but 3 signs apart. The Sextile is 2 signs apart. Trine is 4. Opposition is 6.

MAJOR ASPECTS

SEXTILE: This aspect represents an easy flow of ideas that, if acted upon, will help realize the end goals. It can also indicate talents. It is a harmonious aspect in which energies of the planets involved collaborate well and work comfortably together. Traditionally positive, this aspect is dynamic rather passive, but that does not necessarily bring impetus to do anything. The sextile aspect can be characterized by a lack of friction. The main reason it’s considered positive is that it will not disrupt anything; so much so that it is usually pleasant, but sometimes goes unnoticed.

SQUARE: This aspect implies restrictions and challenges. A dynamic aspect, since challenges pressure you to work on issues represented by planets involved. These planets in square aspect are at cross purposes. They are in a conflict that leads to irrational achievement that is delayed though patient hard work. This can lead to success through integration of the two principles. Traditionally, this is a negative inharmonious aspect. Planets and houses involved are areas in individual’s life where adjustments must be made and where tremendous effort must be expended to realize gains.

TRINE: This is the most fortunate of aspects. The trine aspect represents easy flowing energy between the planets involved, bringing luck. They have opposite and innate creative talents. Too much of a good thing can be bad. The ease brought on by the trine can sometimes be taken for granted and talents left unexpressed. The trine aspect tends to manifest the most pleasant potential of planets involved.

OPPOSITION: These appear directly across from each other in birth chart. It indicates fundamental polarity or duality, a situation in which one must cooperate with others or break with them. This creates tension leading to frustration, though objectivity can lead to a delicate balancing of opposites.  Resolving tension is helped by compromising between two energies, otherwise they will bounce back and forth, competing for center stage in life. A compromise can be achieved by accepting two parts of whole. In general, this is an inharmonious aspect.

Making your own astrology chart or astrology birth charts can be pretty easy! Just follow these steps and you’ll be able to make your own natal birth chart that you can refer to when looking at and reading horoscopes!

Ten Steps To Create Your Very Own Astrology Natal Birth Charts

1. Begin by drawing three circles, a large one, a second medium circle inside the large circle, and a smaller circle inside the other two. Then, using a ruler, divide the large and medium circles into twelve equal parts.

2. Label each section of the large circle and add the name of the sign or the astrological symbol. You may want to start with your star sign at the top and then continue in order. The order of the zodiac is: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. You will need to have them in this order to do an accurate astrology birth chart.

3. Find your ascendant sign by looking up your birth date in an ephemeris. This is a chart of the position of the heavenly bodies at any given time. The ascendant is the sign that is found in the Eastern horizon at the time of birth. For a more accurate astrology chart you will also want the latitude and longitude of the subjects birth so that you can figure out exactly where the ascendant was at the time.

4. Each section of the horoscope is broken up into 30 degrees segments and you will want to put the ascendant into the segment by however many degrees it was found in a sign. The ascendant is marked by a line connecting the ascendant sign to the sign it is found in. For example, if your ascendant was Taurus then it may be 15 degrees in Virgo and you will want to draw the line 15 degrees across them both.

5. In the spots left empty in the middle circle you will want to put the planets as they appeared at the time of the persons birth. Again for a more accurate astrology birth chart you will also want to know the latitude and longitude of when they were born. In order to find out where the planets were you’ll want to consult the ephemeris again. The planets include the sun and moon as well as Pluto depending on what type of astrology you have chosen to use.

6. You will want to place the houses on your astrology birth charts. The houses go in the inner circle and are again divided by twelve. The houses help to determine things like family, wealthy, personality and other such attributes. There are several methods for determining houses and their locations, but the easiest way is to line them up with the ascendant and put them in order. So if your ascendant is 15 degrees into Virgo then you’ll want to place your first house there and move on to the second house 15 degrees into Libra.

7. Lastly you want to calculate the aspects, these are the angles formed between celestial bodies. These can be estimated just by looking at the birth charts!

MINOR ASPECTS

SEMISEXTILE. 30 degree, circle divided by 12. Very mild, barely noticeable, almost insignificant. A little beneficial, it connects signs of different elements and qualities. Can also be difficult, awkward, or uncomfortable. Interpreted by taking into account the rest of the chart for more insight. Usually corroborates other things specified in chart.

SEMISQUARE. 45 degrees, circle divided by 8. Similar to a square but less intense. The aspect implies friction. Also generates minor internal conflict or frustration that can be annoying.

SESQUI- QUADRATE. 135 degrees it is 3/8 of a circle or square and a 1/2. Aspect denotes same friction as semi-square but the irritation tends to generate external difficulties (whereas semi-square correlates more with inner conflict).

QUINCUNX/INCONJUNCT. 150 degrees is 5/12 of a circle. This one demands continual adjustments. Not necessarily negative, but brings strain, some difficulty or stress and sometimes affects health. Can indicate circumstances that are forced upon the person, or self neglect regarding area of life.

QUINTILE. 72 degree, circle divided by 5. Artistic or creative talents, especially mental ones, as well as versatility and an authentic individuality. Mildly beneficial. Biquintile (144 degrees) is the same consideration as quintile.

RISING SIGN

Interchangeably called the Ascendant, the Rising sign is located on a natal chart as a sign on which the 1^st house cusp falls. Its a sign that was at the eastern horizon point from the viewpoint of birth coordinates, at the moment of birth. It rises on the path of the sun’s rise and changes degrees every few minutes. This is why an accurate birth time and place is so important for an accurate horoscope. The Rising sign can be different for twins born just couple minutes apart. The Ascendant point is premises for calculations of the rest of the house cusps. A few minutes of time different shifts the entire chart. The rising sign is like a direct connection between farth and zodiac path. The Zodiac sign that was rising over the Earth the moment you took your first breath and is the point of intersection between the wheel of personal houses and celestial zodiac wheel. This represents the appearance in world; the impression we make on others. It’s the way we take action in the world and our lasting effect on the environment. It’s the public mask that we wear, since tends to be how people see us, especially strangers who don’t know our deeper selves. Characteristics are a real and true part of who you are, so its more like a face than a mask. Face can be shallow and external, you’re stuck with it and cannot take it off. Real part of you, not fake. People usually perceive it in ways you yourself don’t. The Rising sign for you, others see you as embodiment of those characteristics, even though you might not see yourself like that. The Sun sign is your true self, like frame of car, not so visible underneath doors, bumpers and shiny paint. Rising sign is how people perceive us because it is style that we use to go about meeting needs of sun sign.

Behave more like rising sign when surrounded by strangers, or in new situations, like job interviews personal style at all times. Personal style doesn’t represent deepest needs. Study used as tool to understand why people behave way they do. Rising is also said to describe physical characteristics (looks). Extremely important in natal chart; the planet that rules rising sign is considered to be the chart ruler. Every planet and sign is filtered through rising sign, or through ruling planet. They are greatly subject to modifying influence of aspects. Don’t have clear description of rising sign until blended in energies of any planets aspecting ascendant. Rising sign is the way the world forces you to behave. At some point in youth, you were forced and/or taught to behave like rising sign. Can trace to one of parents or primary caregivers. Rising of child will match dominant sign of parents.

The Rising Sign is found on the cusp of 1^st house. It is the filter for the rest of chart, it brands the whole self with its qualities. It’s the exterior shell, presenting you to world and serving as a protective boundary. Here are the details for each Rising Sign:

ARIES RISING

Described as: Energetic, pioneering, rash, argumentative, selfish, impulsive, quick tempered, aggressive, assertive, headstrong, independent, alert, mechanically – inclined, physically active, self promoting, self-centered in an unthinking way and more thoughtless than mean. They have a general dislike for restraint of any kind, they do not like to be told what to do, and they need to learn diplomacy. Additionally, they need to learn both tact and to look before leaping;  it would serve them better to learn how to channel your energies for more constructive purposes and results. Like the ram who symbolizes this sign, they tend to butt their head against their problems hoping that with enough force you can eventually knock down whatever stands before you, including people. Aries Rising like the challenges of life; they can be very competitive and sometimes combative. They also can get bored easily with routine and one thing you may need to practice more of is persistence. They tend to jump from one thing to another, always looking for something new. This sign needs to finish what they start before moving on. Their spiritual lesson to learn: patience. Mars rules Aries so Mars will be important in chart.

TAURUS RISING

Described as: strong, persistent, slow to change, determined, stable, quiet (until pushed too far then there will be trouble), practical, stubborn, non aggressive, patient, affectionate, loyal, hard working, passive, and unassuming in general, and fixed in connections with general slow pace of mind. Taurus can be led or coaxed but never pushed or driven. They always have a lot of resources and possessions, whether people or finances. This sign wants to build and make things, but not be hurried. They want to get their hands on things and see practical results of their own hard work. Taurus is good at taking what others have started then carrying on. Success comes to you by sheer persistence and will. This sign has a love of sweet and rich food, which can incline you to put on weight. Taurus needs to try to be less rigid in all they do, and tame any jealousy and instinct to possessiveness. Taurus hates and fears both sickness and pain. Spiritual lesson to learn: detachment.  Venus rules Taurus so Venus will be important in this chart.

GEMINI RISING

Described as: Friendly, communicative, flexible, indecisive, unsure, liking to do two or more things at once, witty, clever, very active mentally, high strung, temperamental, nervous or anxious, talkative, superficial, and always ready for something different. There may be two distinct sides to you as Gemini represents Twins. They have a strong need to communicate what they already know and to learn more. They enjoy reading and traveling as they both give plenty of scope for picking up new knowledge. Gemini needs variety and can be a jack of all trades but a master of none. They tend to go wide, for breadth , not depth. Gemini may appear confident, but can lack self confidence and inner sureness. Gemini’s love to talk, both with their mouth as well as their hands. Spiritual lesson to learn: control (learn to control and not scatter energies and to prioritize). Mercury rules Gemini so Mercury will be important.

CANCER RISING

Described as: Less vital than average, sympathetic, compassionate, passive, nurturing, receptive, protective, retentive, changeable, psychic, sentimental, tenacious, timid, quiet, sensitive, acquisitive (pack rat), and moody. Cancer might have a habit of looking ahead and behind themselves at the same time. They do not fully want to face the future head-on and they are always worrying about the past and what might be sneaking upon from behind, causing great worry. Cancer goes through life in a curious sideways motion, never going simply or directly forward. They are sensitive and retreat into their shell when they feel threatened. Cancer feelings can be easily hurt, even when no slight was meant and they can take things much too personally. They enjoy travel, but absolutely need to know that they have a home base waiting for them to come back to. Security is everything for a Cancer in life. Physical security comes with a comfortable base of operations and emotional security comes from all personal possessions and attachments that have sentimental value to Cancer. That’s why they keep everything, because of all the emotional value and significance. Once they have latched onto something or someone, they don’t tend to let go easily. A Cancer responds to life through feeling, not thinking. Moods go up and down like tides. Spiritual lesson: discernment (distinguish boundaries). The Moon rules Cancer.

LEO RISING

Described as: generous, proud, emotional, romantic, extroverted, vain, egotistical, courageous, sentimental, self-confident, showy, want to shine and be successful in wherever they go and whatever they do. Leo’s like to ‘rule’ and have homage paid to them for their ‘royal’ nature. They like to take risks and can sometimes be foolhardy, but definitely have a zest for living. The worst thing someone can do to a Leo is to hurt their pride or be unappreciative of them. Leo’s wear their heart on their sleeve in matters of love. They need a partner they can be proud of and want them to be proud of them as well. Leo’s are faithful too and protective of those they love. They can be quick tempered, but tend to not stay angry for long. They like to play the kingly role and have a sense of drama surrounding them. Leo’s are a ham; they like being the center of attention and will do things just to get that attention. They can be stubborn in a sunny sort of way. The Leo’s roar is worse than their bite. If a Leo’s pride is hurt or their dignity is trampled on then watch out, because they can forgive, but don’t forget. They enjoy sports and outdoors activity. They have a vitality and strong spirit except if their heart is broken in love. A Leo’s need for love and affection is very great and they need to feel appreciated. If a Leo is frustrated, they lose desire for living. Spiritual lesson: humility. Sun rules Leo so the Sun will be will be important in chart.

VIRGO RISING

Described as: practical, analytical, discriminating, fastidious, careful, exacting, attentive to details, methodical, quiet, unassuming, shy, critical, thoughtful, and somewhat self-centered. Virgo’s have ingenious, active, and alert minds. Gaining knowledge and putting to good use are important to Virgo’s. They strive for perfection and can be quite the person to live with or be around because standards for self and others are so high. At times others can never be ‘good’ enough to meet those high standards. Finding fault with or what’s wrong with things is their forte. Sometimes though, Virgo can make their relationship sour as they often turn their critical eye on the one they love and things they do. Pessimism and being too self critical are two faults they should try to improve upon. They may tend to worry too much, especially about small stuff, like the little details. Too much worry can lead to health problems. Virgo’s need to learn to digest every experience and assimilate it without bitterness, regret, spite or resentment. They need to get rid of any negativity that stems from their feeling’s of inadequacy. They tend to look younger than really are, no matter their age. Virgo’s are very restless and nervous, so seldom have much weight on them. At times very indecisive and unsure. Spiritual lesson: service.

LIBRA RISING

Described as: charming, refined, attractive in some manner, gracious, appealing, indecisive, cooperative, sociable, creative, artistic, perhaps musically inclined, harmonious and wanting to please and not make waves. They seek the approval and support of others. They may need the company of others and hate to be by themselves. Libra’s are apt to try too hard to please others and compromise their own principles in order to be liked or popular. They can also be very self centered, but also have a difficult time saying no. Libra’s can’t stand disorder and disharmony and want everything to be balanced, poised, and harmonious. They like looking at all sides of an issue before making up their mind. They love to compare things and find analogies. Libra’s enjoy an argument, yet they can be very diplomatic with a friendly exterior. Looks are important to them, they tend to attract whatever it is they need without any real effort on their part. Spiritual lesson: decisiveness, especially in relationships.

SCORPIO RISING

Described as: tend to be secretive, deep, withdrawn, mysterious, regenerate or degenerate, reserved, hard to understand, courageous, willful, persistent, stubborn in thought, creative, self-reliant, self- controlled (except perhaps with passion) and silent. No unevolved soul is born with Scorpio rising. This is a power house rising sign. It represents battleground where higher and lower selves must come to mortal combat. Scorpio’s lower self eventually must die and give way to and obey their higher self, the God within. Their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels are all involved. Calm on surface, they can be extremely emotional inside. Still waters run deep as they say. They tend to be the silent type, always wanting to know other’s motivations, but never disclosing their own. Scorpio’s love to play detective or the ferret. They have to know everything, all how’s and why’s. They have great determination and strength, enough to overcome any adversary even themselves. They need to overcome resentment, possessiveness and jealously. Scorpio’s may have a fascination, preoccupation, interest, and ability with occult, death, sex, or healing. They can be a level or angel, eagle, or stinging scorpion.  Spiritual lesson: forgiveness.

SAGITTARIUS RISING

Described as: idealistic, aspiring, enthusiastic, religious or agnostic, interested in far away places and cultures or ideas, physically active, risk-taking, outgoing, breezy, extroverted, philosophical, perhaps dogmatic, prejudiced, superficial, looking for greener pastures, and on the go. They have great aspirations, yet may have a most unruly desire and nature. Sagittarius shoot for the stars or wallow with the animals. They love of animals, outdoors, sports, gambling, adventure, and travel. They lack concentration. Sagittarius have many acquaintances, but few friends. They tend to have casual contacts rather than in depth relationships. They experience a great restlessness and love to be on the move. This sign will always be looking for greener pastures, never stopping or slowing down to see where they really are and what is around them.  They tend to be talkative, but direct and to the point. Sagittarius may be lacking in tact and diplomacy due to frankness. Ideas very important to them and they generally like working with big picture and dislike little details. This means they may promise much and deliver less. Sagittarius will either rise to heights or sink to depths. Spiritual lesson: restraint.

CAPRICORN RISING

Described as: sensitive, timid, business-like, ambitious, controlling, reserved, practical, down to earth, duty conscious, responsible, critical and cold. They may have had trouble communicating early in life and perhaps suffer from feelings of inadequacy. Capricorn’s overcome these feelings through sheer necessity, as they have determination in achieving their goals and purpose in life. They have great ambition and don’t settle until they have reached great heights that they have set for themselves. Money, position and power are important to Capricorn’s. Their reserve often appears as part of their makeup and is sometimes taken as coldness. For a Capricorn, it seems that they are being responsible and simply doing their duty. They could have trouble with knees, which is outer evidence of inner inability to be flexible. Spiritual lesson: socialibility (lighten up).

AQUARIUS RISING

Described as: altruistic, friendly, yet detached, impersonal, humanitarian, sociable, intellectual, freedom loving, rebellious, independent and unusual. Aquarius is here to learn altruism, brotherhood, and working for the common good. They forget themselves and their needs for the sake of their friends, who can also be strangers. They have new and different ways of looking at things. Aquarius can be very original and inventive, perhaps even eccentric or bohemian. They are prone to uncertain and sudden impulses. Aquarius tend to be very intuitive, possessing a good mind. They have organizing ability and are capable and practical. They are intelligent, but sometimes cold and calculating where feelings are concerned. There’s a certain detachment about them. Aquarius can’t stand possessiveness and jealousy and they require plenty of freedom. Depending on relative strengths of Saturn and Uranus in their chart, caution, coldness, and selfishness may be exhibited. Or there will be more altruism, freedom, and free-flowingness. Then things of spirit will be stronger than materialistic worldliness. Spiritual lesson: warmth.

PISCES RISING
