Birth Analysis
Main Title: Life Path
Sub Title: Ascendant In Leo
Key Word: LIFE-PATH: Self-projection
Professional
Building up a strong sense of identity is a major motivating factor for you on a professional level, so you will thrive in a high profile job in which you can win recognition. Your ability to succeed is dependant on many other factors in your chart, but major assets will be your self-confidence, charisma and personal style. You may also have access to creative talents which can manifest in many areas of your life, from art to teaching. It is important for you to be at the centre of things, and - other things being equal - other people will accept you as a leader in their group. When you stand out and excel you are at your happiest, and so are other people. If you hide your light under a bushel, nobody is satisfied. As you are extremely aware of your personal power and the influence to have on others, you will be very sensitive to the unavoidable fluctuations in your personal confidence during the years. The older you get, the more secure you feel about your identity.
Main Title: Identity
Sub Title: Sun In Cancer
Key Word: IDENTITY: Sense of belonging.
Professional
You are a loyal person easily moved by the bonds of attachment that link you to others - particularly family members. You work best in a secure environment with people you know, and your place of work can be a second family to you. You resent intruders, and it takes time for you to get used to new people in your professional circle. However you are talented at understanding others, and strongly motivated to help care for people. You are a vulnerable person and will seldom forget it if someone harms you, or someone else who you care about. You are particularly attached to your territory and defend it fiercely. Actually you work hard to create a cosy atmosphere at your place of work. You have a natural business talent for increasing your assets. You hang grimly on to professional gains, but often future growth is prevented by past clutter. Economic insecurity can make you physically ill, because you are so attached to home and family and fear loss. But you are dynamic and industrious, so you tend to steadily advance in life.
Main Title: Emotions
Sub Title: Moon In Gemini
Key Word: EMOTIONS: Gather impressions
Professional
You are a restless soul with an insatiable appetite for new impressions. This restlessness keeps you on the go, travelling, visiting, making connections and above all assimilating knowledge. Other things being equal, you have superb talent for communicating with other people and this will be a distinct advantage in jobs which require making contacts, selling, telephoning etc. You are good at learning new things fast. You are persuasive, and invest your feelings into what you say. Whilst some may consider your ability to talk on almost any subject rather superficial, you are genuinely fascinated by general conversation and the workings of the mind.
Main Title: Mentality
Sub Title: Mercury In Leo
Key Word: MENTALITY: Self-expression
Professional
You have strong opinions and have the ability to win respect when you put across your point of view. You command attention when you express your ideas, and coupled with other factors, this can give you both creative and leadership abilities. Furthermore you have a natural charm and have a way of making people feel that they are important. On the other hand you also know how to put people down. You may lack mental flexibility. Convinced that your point of view is correct, you have a tendency to show contempt for inferior ideas. However, good manners are an integral part of your nature, so you are seldom downright rude. You can make a very good representative for your company because of your innate dignity and style.
Main Title: Values
Sub Title: Venus In Gemini
Key Word: VALUES: Enjoy meeting people
Professional
There is a natural talent for communication, often on a creative or aesthetic level. Professionally this gives a number of valuable abilities, not least a charming persuasiveness. You will thrive in situations in which you are required to meet people. You are good a facilitating contact, and may also have talents connected with personnel. As you have extremely good literary judgement, you may wish to try your hand at writing. You have the ability to make rapid adjustments when meeting others, and there is a talent for really reaching people mentally. You will not thrive in an isolated position. You need social stimulation and a variety of tasks to perform. Your friendships will be a powerful resource in your life.
Main Title: Drives
Sub Title: Mars In Cancer
Key Word: DRIVES: Working with instincts
Professional
You work hard to create security and are strongly motivated to create a strong base. Thus home and family are basic issues for you when considering a career. Strong attachments are formed to the people in the working environment, and if treated well you are very loyal indeed. However you are sensitive and can take offence easily. When your feelings are hurt you react very powerfully on an emotional level, and can be very temperamental - or just grumpy. You work best when in a job which demands a lot emotionally - perhaps a job with a caring function. There is considerable talent for dealing with the land, or with houses. You can be very warm and supportive, but otherwise you are a private person, very protective of yourself and those closest to you. There may be certain psychic talents apparent - in particular a well-developed intuition.
Main Title: Wisdom
Sub Title: Jupiter In Cancer
Key Word: WISDOM: Expand your intimate sphere
Professional
Professionally you are inclined towards a career in which loyalty to the firm is a high priority, and where there is a strong sense of belonging. You are able to express a strong concern for the well-being of your associates, and you can create a very secure environment. Understanding and insight comes to you through an instinctive feeling about what is right and what is wrong. You are strongly swayed by your emotional convictions in your judgements, for good or ill. You manifest a strong moral judgement. Personal success may not be quite so important to you as the well being of those you are close to, but these two things are not mutually exclusive - you tend to experience good fortune. By trusting in your intuitions, and by putting the weight of strong feelings behind expansion goals you create the optimal conditions for success.
Main Title: Challenges
Sub Title: Saturn In Pisces Retrograde
Key Word: SELF-RELIANCE: Transcendence of ambition
Professional
This planet is retrograde, and in the areas concerned you have a tendency to go against the grain, harvesting experiences of an intensely personal nature and drawing your own special conclusions.
Saturn is to be found in this sign in the periods 1935-38, 1964-67 and 1993-96, and during these periods there was a profound awareness of social needs and a desire to improve the situation of the underprivileged. If you come to express this influence in your career, you will be motivated by a deep concern, and will find success in a job in which you could help those who cannot help themselves. If you can overcome inner blockages, you may also discover a creative talent. It can be difficult for you to reconcile the drive to achieve, which you see motivates others, with the awareness that many people never make it to the top. You are therefore not motivated by the allure of success, or if you think you are it will prove elusive. To achieve success in life it is important for you to overcome depressive tendencies and lack of faith in yourself, and replace negativity with a compassionate attitude. Success may involve an element of sacrifice.
Main Title: Originality
Sub Title: Uranus In Virgo
Key Word: ORIGINALITY: Liberation from labour
Collective
Uranus takes 84 years to orbit the Sun and is in this sign for 7 years, representing a collective influence on a whole generation. It shows how you are most influenced by revolutionary attitudes in society. When the Ascendant is in Aquarius this influence will be expressed in a more personal way.
Uranus went through the sign of Virgo from 1962 to 1968 and will do so again from 2046 to 2052. Collectively these are periods of great labour unrest, partly as a result of technological breakthroughs which both bring freedom from monotonous employment through automation, and transform the attitude of society to work in general. This influence heralds a period of change as regards health reform, bringing radical new views about the relationship between mind and body, and removing responsibility for personal health from authorities.
Should you manifest this collective influence in a personal way, you will wish to make a personal statement through the way you work, creating alternatives to traditional modes of work integration. Nine-to-five jobs will not appeal, as you believe in the individual's right to administer his or her own time. You may have some unusual talents or interests regarding health, perhaps because of a need to resolve imbalances in your own body.
Main Title: Transcendence
Sub Title: Neptune In Scorpio Retrograde
Key Word: TRANSCENDENCE: Transmutation
Collective
This planet is retrograde, and in the areas concerned you have a tendency to go against the grain, harvesting experiences of an intensely personal nature and drawing your own special conclusions.
Neptune takes 165 years to orbit the Sun, and approximately 14 years to go through one sign. Its influence affects a whole generation, and is associated with a new sensory and spiritual awareness, and greater compassion, in connection with the sign it is in. For most people this influence is experienced on a collective level, but those who have their Ascendant in Pisces will express it in a personal way in their lives.
Neptune was in Scorpio from 1793 to 1806, and again from 1955 to 1970. There was a deep collective awakening of hidden emotional drives at this time, especially activated by musical developments and the influence of the media. The deepest fears of humanity seeped to the surface, and people were forced to develop new attitudes to death and destruction - a process which on the one hand enriched society on a spiritual level, and on the other created a certain mass hysteria.
If you channel this collective influence in a personal way, you will have a deep fascination with hidden and tabu matters, and with sexuality and the occult. At the same time there may be musical or magical talents which enable you to mobilise hidden powers to awaken others. Your search to satisfy your desires turns out to be a spiritual dead-end, and you learn quickly that the more you fan the flames of desire, the brighter burns the flame. Greater satisfaction is attained when you use your talents on a higher emotional or spiritual level.
Main Title: Transformation
Sub Title: Pluto In Virgo
Key Word: TRANSFORMATION: Servitude transformation
Collective
Pluto has an irregular orbit around the Sun which takes about 248 years. When Pluto is closest to the Sun it takes only 12 years to traverse a sign. When it is furthest away, it takes approximately 30 years. Its influence is felt collectively on a very deep level in society, bringing trauma, transformation and renewal in regard to the sign it is in. Individuals with their Ascendant in Scorpio may express this influence in a personal way, otherwise its effect is expressed as an underlying influence on a whole generation.
Pluto was in Virgo from 1711 to 1725, and again from 1957 to 1971. Major transformation in employment trends took place at these times because of developments in technology which undermined traditional crafts and professions. These changes had a profound affect in both the factory and the land through industrial and agricultural reform. Socially there was a greater emphasis on services and health reform, with new developments - and a certain fanaticism - as regards hygiene and cleanliness.
If you are able to channel this collective influence in a personal way you may have certain interests or talents in matters of health. You are especially aware of the interrelation of body and mind, and may have some troubling ailments as a result of this interplay, or as a result of oversensitivity to additives and impurities in food or other substances which you encounter in your daily life. Daily relations with friends in your place of work may also force you to re-evaluate social bonds. Difficulties in securing employment, or a feeling of being misused at work may force you to change direction in your profession. You have the capacity to enact deep-seated changes in social service functions in society.

Main Title: Houses General
Sub Title: 1st House
Key Word: Self-projection
General
The 1st House is connected with the projection of personal character out into the world. It is strongly related to the personal appearance, and in particular to the head. The first house gives a strong self-awareness and self-absorption. Planets placed in this house play a dominant role in personal character and have high visibility. The individual identifies strongly with them for good or ill. This house is connected with the actual birth process, and the cusp of the first house - the Ascendant - is the point of transition from non-being into being. This house can be seen as pure expression of identity and projection of being.
