Synastry Report for MIINumber33 Knowflake MIINumber33 KnowflakeNumber33 Knowflake Report For MIINumber33 Knowflake Moon MIINumber33's Moon in Number33's 12th House Your natural and open feelings may unlock some of Number33's dark side, so choose your responses carefully so as not to tread on hidden sore spots. It is better to be seen as a sweet dream than a nightmare, so walk softly and hide the big stick. MIINumber33's Moon Trine Number33's Mercury Number33 probably doesn't have to complete a sentence before you know where it's going and usually agree. And when you don't agree, that's picked up on and readjusted to mutual consensus. Your heart, Number33's head, move in tandem. MIINumber33's Moon Square Number33's Midheaven Watch what you say about Number33, as your initial reactions may not be exactly the best publicity, even though you may not mean it that way. If your feelings are negative, they can have a hurtful impact that spreads further than you may imagine. MIINumber33's Moon Conjunction Number33's Ascendant You would make skating partners, as you intuit just what moves go with Number33's image and know just the right moves and the perfect makeup to dress both of you to a T. Physical and emotional timing is right in sync. Sun MIINumber33's Sun in Number33's 4th House You can be both rising and setting sun for Number33 if given the chance, which may well happen. You don't need to give advice to be leaned on, just be yourself and you will find yourself part of Number33's home, a bottom line necessity. Synastry Report: MIINumber33 Knowflake Page 2 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 MIINumber33's Sun Opposition Number33's Moon When you let your little light shine, don't expect instant hand-in-glove reactions from Number33, who may have a different or even opposite take on what style to adopt. Working well together may mean adaptation, so don't make assumptions. MIINumber33's Sun Conjunction Number33's Sun Birthday mates, or close to it, you share a similar style and yearly rhythm that makes for natural companionship. It can also make for competition, so make sure you emphasize what you share rather than what you both want. MIINumber33's Sun Conjunction Number33's Mercury Your personality style may not seem to need description, but Number33 will describe it anyway, and that could be useful on your resume. Just watch that you don't shine so bright that Number33 can't get a word in edgewise. Listen to what is being said. MIINumber33's Sun Trine Number33's Ascendant Your personality provides good support for Number33's live appearances, and you will be acknowledged for the fact. You are able to sit back and let Number33 take the spotlight and be content to give sincere rave reviews. Mercury MIINumber33's Mercury in Number33's 4th House Number33 may come to expect you to have the last word on any personal issue, and you may indeed do just that. Feel free not to as well, or you may wind up carrying both credit and blame for weighty issues that are not entirely yours. MIINumber33's Mercury Opposition Number33's Moon If you try to pin down what Number33 is feeling, the chances are you'll have to chase it for a long time before you get it right. Sometimes words just aren't appropriate. And, if Number33 is clueless to your most articulate speeches, try a more physical approach. MIINumber33's Mercury Conjunction Number33's Sun You can probably describe Number33 to another person better than Number33 can. That is because the mind can encompass the heart, but not vice versa. The only problem you may find is that Number33 may not give you the space to do it. MIINumber33's Mercury Conjunction Number33's Mercury Like minds in like places, your thinking comes from the very same spot, so your Synastry Report: MIINumber33 Knowflake Page 3 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 only problem might be to avoid duplication. One's solutions are usually as good as another, so don't compete or overlap when you can spell each other. Venus MIINumber33's Venus in Number33's 6th House Although routine duties are often seen as chores, with Number33 this might not be the case. Attention to neglected, everyday motions, from meals to personal rituals and other common pursuits, can highlight the joy of being in the now. MIINumber33's Venus Square Number33's Mars Sometimes you may wonder who on earth would want what Number33 is putting out? Not your kind of turn-on much of the time, but then it takes all kinds. What you don't want, you should let go, but isn't that always a challenge? MIINumber33's Venus Conjunction Number33's Jupiter No doubt you would like to have a part of Number33's latest schemes, and certainly find the company stimulating. Number33 tends to expand your appetite for life and love, propelling you to discover and take greater pleasures from what is all around you. MIINumber33's Venus Trine Number33's Midheaven You likely find Number33's public persona quite supportive not because you are starstruck but because it fits in nicely with other things that please you. Considering the rest of Number33, the reputation seems quite appropriate and deserved. Mars MIINumber33's Mars in Number33's 6th House When Number33 tires, you'll be the first to pick up the speed and set the pace. Push it to the limit, but not beyond, particularly where physical stamina and endurance are concerned. Know Number33's limits and do not insist on more. MIINumber33's Mars Square Number33's Mars Because your work and energy rhythms are decidedly different, you may be best off pursuing separate but equal tracks rather than disputing what to do with a single project. Look for a third party to arbitrate where who does what. MIINumber33's Mars Conjunction Number33's Jupiter You have a way of lighting a fire under Number33's developing plans and Synastry Report: MIINumber33 Knowflake Page 4 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 expanding awareness that just won't quit. You insist on trying things out, not just speculating, and force Number33 to turn imagination into reality. MIINumber33's Mars Conjunction Number33's Saturn You may be able to get Number33 up and moving, but it can be at your own expense. Number33 can be a serious energy drain if you are not careful. Should you be overwrought, however, Number33 is the perfect person to settle you down, ground you. MIINumber33's Mars Trine Number33's Midheaven Your efforts will probably serve to enhance Number33's reputation, and vice versa, without necessarily meaning to. You just happen to be on the same page. It's something to remember when you are totaling up your resources. Jupiter MIINumber33's Jupiter in Number33's 3rd House When you lay out your latest brilliant plans, it can open Number33's head up like a bouquet of flowers. Encourage new ideas, expanding discussions, and the development of new contacts. Make the suggestions, then let Number33 do the talking. MIINumber33's Jupiter Sextile Number33's Venus A pleasant tendency to linger just long enough on one pleasure before moving on to try a new one can make this a mellow friendship. No need to make decisions, as they make themselves, and when one desire is sated, you move on easily to the next. Saturn MIINumber33's Saturn in Number33's 4th House When Number33's house gets out of order, you may be just the one to help tighten up the operation and separate the meaningful from general detritus. But you need to be sensitive to what's really meaningful to Number33, don't undercut the foundations. MIINumber33's Saturn Opposition Number33's Moon Avoid the unconscious tendency to be critical of or to selectively ignore Number33's feelings. Although you may not share them, they are to be respected more than you may believe. Conversely, when you don't want to deal with something, Number33 should refrain from forcing the issue. Synastry Report: MIINumber33 Knowflake Page 5 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 MIINumber33's Saturn Conjunction Number33's Mercury You can do a lot to cut out the verbiage in Number33's approach and help get down to brass tacks. A little clear thinking, without embellishment, goes a long way, and you can help provide it. Conversely, Number33 can help you express your own boundaries so you know just how to say no. MIINumber33's Saturn Trine Number33's Ascendant If you think Number33's looking good, you probably don't have to gush about it. A simple smile and a nod will go a long way to build confidence and express approval. If it passes your test, it must be OK, and chance are, it is. Uranus MIINumber33's Uranus in Number33's 7th House You may well shake up Number33's idea of just what partnership can be about, and your new versions may be quite welcome. Take it one change at a time, however, and don't try to reinvent everything all at once, or it will lead to uncertainty and confusion. Neptune MIINumber33's Neptune in Number33's 8th House Remembrance of things past, lost horizons just beyond the horizon, these and more you may inspire in Number33. You can be a help in getting back in touch with the past. On the other hand, stay out of Number33's credit scene, lest you stir muddy waters. Pluto MIINumber33's Pluto in Number33's 6th House Routine and humdrum affairs, the daily grind, sometime require drastic measures to change. You can help do that for Number33, but make sure you have a replacement to suggest before you blow away what's there. Plans for reconstruction are essential. Midheaven Number33's Midheaven Square MIINumber33's Moon However well things may be going personally, it will probably be wise to steer MIINumber33 clear of your professional life, as MIINumber33's feelings there will tend to get things tangled up and not likely for the better for either of you. Intimacy yes, publicity no. Number33's Midheaven Trine MIINumber33's Venus Whatever they say about you is OK by MIINumber33, so you needn't struggle to maintain your reputation where MIINumber33 is concerned. You feel support from MIINumber33's personal satisfaction in this regard, however things may be going otherwise. Number33's Midheaven Trine MIINumber33's Mars Expect MIINumber33 to support your career efforts and back you up in public, but not always in the most obvious ways. It may turn out to be quietly picking up tasks without being asked, which affords you more time to do what you have to. Ascendant Number33's Ascendant Conjunction MIINumber33's Moon You may find that MIINumber33 reacts to every move you make, which could make you a great skating team, vocal duo, or anything else that requires intuitive close formation. In fact, it's separating your actions that might prove more difficult. Number33's Ascendant Trine MIINumber33's Sun You'll likely find enthusiastic support from MIINumber33 when making your personal appearances. The similarity of your image and MIINumber33's personality complement each other sufficiently that your mutual styles will benefit you both. Number33's Ascendant Trine MIINumber33's Saturn Look to get the OK from MIINumber33 about how you're doing, and chances are you'll be greeted with quiet approval. If the effect such approval is to make you a bit more tastefully conservative, so much the better. Establish a baseline before you self-decorate.

Synastry Report for MINumber33 Knowflake MINumber33 KnowflakeNumber33 Knowflake Moon MINumber33's Moon in Number33's 6th House Your feelings may inspire in Number33 more of a sense of order and duty than you might imagine or want. On the other hand, you're a good encouragement to make improvements in health and well-being -- playing nurse or doctor may be your role. MINumber33's Moon Trine Number33's Moon Although you may both have different feelings about any situation you encounter, you'll pretty much agree on a gut level and your emotional reactions will blend and support each other. You intuit what is in common underneath it all. MINumber33's Moon Sextile Number33's Sun Push and pull, throw and receive, go easily with the two of you, like a baseball team tossing the ball around the bases. One thing leads easily to another if you don't let your minds get in the way. Ask for it, receive, and pass it back easy. MINumber33's Moon Square Number33's Mars You may have to go out of your way to avoid needless disputes, which are as easy to avoid as they are to walk into. It takes two to have a fight, and when Number33 seems to pick one, back off, don't jump right in. Peace takes effort, but it's worth it. MINumber33's Moon Conjunction Number33's Jupiter Even when Number33 is a bit over the top, chances are you're ready to field the most ambitious pitch and move it up to a new level. You are particularly helpful in encouraging growth, as you know just where Number33 will be flowering and can tend every petal. MINumber33's Moon Trine Number33's Midheaven The first comments out of your mouth about Number33 will generally be Synastry Report: MINumber33 Knowflake Page 2 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 supportive ones, and you can be counted on for compliments that are sincere and unprompted. You will likely benefit from Number33's thanks as a result, though you wouldn't actively promote it. Sun MINumber33's Sun in Number33's 10th House You can be the perfect person to lead Number33 on to bigger and better things, one who stimulates both growth and ambition. If Number33 sees fame and fortune in your eyes, make sure you get a piece of the action. MINumber33's Sun Trine Number33's Jupiter You are a good support for Number33's ambitions, even when not directly involved with them. Your general comments and personal approval go a long way in giving Number33 the necessary confidence to move ahead and succeed. MINumber33's Sun Trine Number33's Saturn You can always get under Number33's defenses and help give support from within, even when others are shut out. That can make you a really valuable friend on a long-term basis. Similarly, Number33 can be a bulwark when you need it most. MINumber33's Sun Conjunction Number33's Midheaven This can be a very good professional relationship, especially for Number33, as you just naturally will promote what you are doing in the most positive manner. You have your heart in saying good things about Number33, and you will be heard of as a result. MINumber33's Sun Square Number33's Ascendant Although you may work well together, it's likely not easy to be a tight duo in person, so you might want to let one or the other lead or alternately go it alone. Where you have alternate takes on reality, take turns. Mercury MINumber33's Mercury in Number33's 10th House Number33 probably admires your ability to sort out career issues and define promotional image. But it's about Number33's issues and image, not necessarily yours, so enjoy the attention but be ready to accept a possible one-way street here. Synastry Report: MINumber33 Knowflake Page 3 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 MINumber33's Mercury Conjunction Number33's Moon When Number33 is at a loss for words to express the feelings of the moment, you can probably provide them. Conversely, Number33 likely intuits what you are going to say before the words leave your mouth. It's a mind/emotion link that may sometimes amaze. MINumber33's Mercury Opposition Number33's Sun You may be hard-pressed to put a finger on what makes Number33 tick, but you should avoid any arguments that might spring up in the attempt. Words are not the only channel of communication open to you, so when words fail, try something else. MINumber33's Mercury Opposition Number33's Mercury Your solutions may be at sixes and sevens, and the more you talk it out, the more you seem to need to. The trick is to find a cutoff point before you reach the point of time-wasting and aggravating diminishing returns. It doesn't have to be perfect, just good enough. Venus MINumber33's Venus in Number33's 10th House Forwarding career and reputation comes easily here, and mutual promotion will likely be successful. Separate desire from true admiration, so you don't get blinded by impulse while others watch. MINumber33's Venus Opposition Number33's Sun Number33 wasn't born to please you, so don't expect it. That doesn't mean you can't get along just fine, only that you shouldn't expect Number33 in your pocket all the time. When you're not getting what you want here, look elsewhere -- no one will mind. MINumber33's Venus Trine Number33's Jupiter Number33 is a good one to lead you gently into new experiences, develop new tastes and appetites, without undue strain or getting unnecessarily sidetracked. Try this? Oh, sure -- that's good! Without fanfare, just agreement and enjoyment. MINumber33's Venus Conjunction Number33's Midheaven You may be a bit taken by Number33's reputation and general status in the professional or social community. At least you like what you hear, but you should take a look whether it's the person or the myth you like better. Synastry Report: MINumber33 Knowflake Page 4 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 MINumber33's Venus Square Number33's Ascendant Although there may not be immediate physical attraction here on your part, you may find much to love in other facets of Number33, from work to character to partnering style. Overlook perceived faults, as they may be only in the eye of the beholder. Mars MINumber33's Mars in Number33's 9th House You can be a real spark-starter for Number33 when it comes to opening inner horizons and pushing new plans to the launching pad. A welcome nudge to open new doors will be appreciated, but after that, leave it up to Number33. MINumber33's Mars Trine Number33's Venus Your efforts are appreciated by Number33, without actually having to set the woods on fire. Activities and pleasures go hand in hand in a fairly pressureless environment, which can make this relationship something to vacation with. MINumber33's Mars Trine Number33's Jupiter You can lend welcome yet unobtrusive force to help manifest plans and developments that Number33 is hatching. Conversely, Number33's latest schemes will provide needed and profitable outlets for energy you might have wasted elsewhere. MINumber33's Mars Trine Number33's Saturn Number33 can be a good influence on your work habits and energy expenditures in general, teaching you how to conserve your resources and get the most results out of the least efforts. A calming and sustaining influence. MINumber33's Mars Conjunction Number33's Midheaven You can use your efforts to promote Number33's reputation to the four winds, and become closely associated with it in the process. Be precise in your ministrations, however, as overenthusiasm can damage as much as help. MINumber33's Mars Square Number33's Ascendant Getting things together that require physical effort on Number33's part may be a little confusing, as your energy often seems to be coming from left field. Several practice runs before going ahead may be necessary, or do things one at a time. Synastry Report: MINumber33 Knowflake Page 5 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Jupiter MINumber33's Jupiter in Number33's 7th House You can have a lot to teach Number33 about new and creative ways to partner, bringing fresh approaches to growing together. A positive attitude toward your possibilities can make for breakthroughs in how Number33 relates to you and others in general. MINumber33's Jupiter Square Number33's Sun You may drive each other a little crazy once you get going and can't decide where to go next -- too many potentially good directions to pursue all at once. Best to choose a few to concentrate on and save the others for the next round. MINumber33's Jupiter Trine Number33's Mars Fresh new directions always seem to provide the energy demanded to attend to them. You don't really need to schedule it, just let it flow and the strength and endurance will be there for both of you. Novelty provides its own fuel. MINumber33's Jupiter Square Number33's Midheaven You may likely do a lot to open Number33's personal horizons, but you're less likely to be encouraging in personal promotion, due to some disagreements about how it should be done. So promote new inner horizons, leave the rest to Number33. MINumber33's Jupiter Opposition Number33's Ascendant Although you may have nothing but praise for Number33's appearance, it may be couched in phrases that are suggestions for change rather than simple admiration. Pick a couple of nice things and stick with them, improvements will come along soon enough. Saturn MINumber33's Saturn in Number33's 10th House Feel free to offer constructive criticism where Number33's professional life and reputation are concerned, but keep it between the two of you or you could become a liability. Help provide stability and consistency, but don't be a wet towel. MINumber33's Saturn Conjunction Number33's Moon You can be a bit of a damper on Number33's emotions, although in crazy moments you can also have a stabilizing effect. If Number33 seems hesitant, Synastry Report: MINumber33 Knowflake Page 6 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 you may be part of the reason, so you might do what you can in the way of encouragement to offset it. MINumber33's Saturn Opposition Number33's Sun If Number33's personality sometimes impinges on your boundaries, try to avoid harsh criticism or character assassination. You can't always agree on lifestyle, and when you can't, let it slide. Debating the subject will likely only bring harm. MINumber33's Saturn Opposition Number33's Mercury If you must be critical of what Number33 has to say, don't be nagging and don't repeat yourself. If a word to the wise isn't sufficient, a paragraph won't do any better. And if Number33 tries to spin you as a control freak, just back off. Uranus MINumber33's Uranus in Number33's 9th House You may introduce Number33 to any number of new and visionary ways of looking at things, possibly without intending to or even knowing you're doing it. Your natural inventiveness may provide just the needed kernels for Number33's biggest ideas. Neptune MINumber33's Neptune in Number33's 9th House The sky's the limit of where you can go with Number33 when it comes to dreaming up new worlds of possibilities, there are big picture options with infinite openings for change. A mutual opening of spiritual directions may also be in the cards. Pluto MINumber33's Pluto in Number33's 7th House The nature of partnership is equality, and that may be hard to maintain here. You need to resist the temptation to control or manipulate Number33's close personal or business relationships to achieve that. Partners are chosen, not appointed. Midheaven Number33's Midheaven Trine MINumber33's Moon MINumber33's feelings about your public life are fundamentally supportive and can be counted on to back you up whenever asked. However, that won’t be often as usually there's really no need to ask -- it's quietly taken for granted. Number33's Midheaven Conjunction MINumber33's Sun You will likely find MINumber33 very supportive of your public life and quite easily associated with it in a positive manner. There's mutual benefit to be had there, so be ready to share the limelight to the advantage of both. Number33's Midheaven Conjunction MINumber33's Venus MINumber33 just loves what you do, or rather what people say about what you do. In fact, you may find that MINumber33's fortunes become entwined with your success if you give it the chance. However, if you accept the good publicity it becomes a commitment in return. Number33's Midheaven Conjunction MINumber33's Mars MINumber33 can contribute real efforts on your behalf professionally, but it is energy you need to keep track of so you don't lose your balance. Know what's being contributed so you can incorporate it. It's what you don't know that can upset the applecart. Number33's Midheaven Square MINumber33's Jupiter Schemes that MINumber33 cooks up on your behalf may be intended to make you famous, but also may be more complicated than they seem and more trouble than they're worth. If it doesn't yield success quickly, move on to something else in this area.
You both share a lot as far as timing of events, particularly pertaining to your public lives. Throughout the month, similar concerns will come up at the same time, and people will be saying much the same thing about both of you. Compare notes. Ascendant Number33's Ascendant Square MINumber33's Sun MINumber33 in many ways may well be an ideal partner, if you are willing to take differences into account and weather the commentary necessary to make mutual adjustments. Keeping up your personal appearance will be essential to keeping the peace. Number33's Ascendant Square MINumber33's Venus The way you present yourself may not always be to MINumber33's taste, and chances are you'll hear about it when that's the case. Take it under advisement, but remember that this is one person's opinion and not necessarily the world's. Number33's Ascendant Square MINumber33's Mars MINumber33 may try to light a fire under you just when you'd rather sit still, and that may be annoying at times. Suggestions may be welcome, but insistence may not be, so be willing and ready to say no when you've spent quite enough energy on the situation. Number33's Ascendant Opposition MINumber33's Jupiter Keeping each other's company may have a way of making you both go overboard and bite off more than you can chew in the way of new approaches, projects, and ideas. When overwhelmed, cut down to developing just a few, leave the rest for later. IP: Logged |

The horoscope provides a permanent record of what surrounded life at its beginning. It is the blueprint from which the following interpretations are read. Interpretation text is from Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions both by Grant Lewi and published by Llewellyn Publications. The cover art is by Hannes Bok, 1962 All rights reserved. Copyright 1936-1990 Llewellyn Publications. Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions may be purchased from Llewellyn Publications P.O. Box 644383, St. Paul, Minnesota 55164-0383 Program Copyright 1985-2007 Matrix Software, Inc. Chart Data Page 2 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Introduction Grant Lewi (1902 - 1951) is a legendary figure among twentieth century astrologers. He was a writer and editor for the two largest astrological magazines of the time. His two books, Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions , were the first astrological books to become best sellers and even today, over fifty years later, they remain among the best introductions to the subject of astrology. The astrological interpretations found in Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions were unique, fresh, and simple. Llewellyn George, the prominent astrologer of the time, remarked that Lewi's interpretations must be intuitive because they were unlike any that had been written before him. Today these interpretations remain energetic and forceful and, though some references are now dated, Lewi's text still provides some of the clearest insights found anywhere in the literature of astrology. Lewi was determined to make astrology more accessible to the average person, but while popularizing the subject he never watered it down or reduced it to the level found in "sun sign" astrology. Writing before computers were available, he made his books function as the computer, providing the reader with tables to generate their own charts or horoscopes and then linking his interpretations to the information found there. Lewi would have made good use of the computer, so much in his books seem to anticipate them. In his writing he tried to emulate the interpretation process by using a computerless version of artificial intelligence: the meaning of a planet in a sign doesn't stand alone but is modified by the other aspects found in your chart. Many of his comments depend on a combination of factors and for this reason you will sometimes find that he has something different to say about an aspect in your chart than he does for the same aspect in your friend's chart. This report calculates your chart for you and then collects all of Lewi's comments strictly according to the astrological factors found there. The text contained here is valid even for those who don't know their time of birth - Lewi focused on those factors that are in effect throughout the birthday. The only exception to this is the case of the Moon which can move between 12 and 14 degrees in a day, so if the positions were calculated for noon then the Moon could be as much as 6 or 7 degrees different and possibly even change signs. If you don't know your time and the texts that involve the Moon seem unlikely, you may wish to compare reports done for the beginning and the end of the day. At all times, Lewi’s aim has been to show how astrology can be used as an aid in living a more satisfying and fulfilling life. Astrology offers indications and pointers - and sometimes insights - to situations that you find in life. It doesn’t tell you what to do about them, but if it offers you a better understanding of the situation, then you are in a better position to decide for yourself what to do. To quote Grant Lewi: "It is not limitations that eats out the heart, but inaction, the knowledge of powers not used, the sense of having failed to develop to the utmost. The overcoming of fate is not the overcoming of Introduction Page 3 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake limitations: that is impossible. It is the exercise of free will, the assertion of the full self, expanding to its utmost with the tools at hand, in the circumstances that are set. Astrology, through the interpretation of the horoscope, assists men to the achievement of their maximum by indicating to them the lines along which their will may be most progressively applied, the goals to be sought, and the individual means by which each one may arrive at the outermost boundaries of his world." Horoscope of Birth Your horoscope of birth is the blueprint of your personality and character as indicated by the position of the Sun, the Moon and the eight planets on the date of your birth. This section is devoted to each of these members of the solar system. The planets are the antennae and arms of the horoscope, of which the body and soul are the Sun and Moon. No planet will ever cause you to act counter to the testimony of the Sun and Moon in their combined influence on you. Remember this when you proceed with the following readings. All planetary vibration must be considered in light of the basic solar-lunar readings, for these are your character, your basic nature, which the planets will help or hinder but cannot materially change. According to the sign position of your Sun, one planet will be more important than the others and should probably be read first. Your Sun is in Virgo and your dominant planet is Mercury. Not only the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also the attribute over which it rules. Thus Gemini, ruled by Mercury, lives a great deal in the senses; Libra, ruled by Venus, responds most readily to emotional stimuli; and so on. Study your ruler carefully. Remember in all planetary readings that they work within the pattern of your solar-lunar nature; never against it. The synthesis of your horoscope from the following series of paragraphs to a working unit depends on your keeping this in mind, which will enable you to weld all the readings into a unified and significant whole. Sun in Virgo and Moon in Taurus This is one of the outstanding positions of luck in life; material problems rarely trouble you, though out of nervousness you may create your own worries. In some way you are taken care of; and through hereditary standing may rise to a position of considerable importance. You are naturally easy-going (which may be reflected in a tendency to grow fat!), and your genial nature makes friends readily, generally among rich or influential people. This is a position of hereditary prestige rather than of anything that you accomplish for yourself, for the impetus to progress, either through economic necessity or through personal drive, does not develop readily. You're a useful, conventional, stable citizen, probably living on the fat of the land, or at least well cared for; mildly interested in intellectual and artistic matters. In love, you are constant and loyal, rather than ardent, and have probably come through youth Horoscope of Birth Page 4 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake with a minimum of unpleasant experiences. You take a good deal for granted and are a pretty matter-of-fact person. In business, as in personal life, you are marked by soundness rather than daring; your business will run smoothly and without excitement for you stick to the conservative course, where the rocks and reefs are few. You have been sheltered and protected from the less pleasant side of the world, and it appears a pretty good place to you. You have profited under conservative business practices and achieved contentment through a harmonious, rather than an adventurous, love-life; and you are quite content to have the world continue its leisurely pace till the end of your days, which because of a sound constitution may well be long. Sun The Sun indicates the appearance you will present before the world and the psychological bias which will dominate your actions. What you seem, and why, are told in the reading for your Sun. In many ways the Sun is the dominant force in your horoscope and in your life. Other influences, especially that of the Moon, may modify the Sun's influence, but nothing will cause you to depart very far from the basic solar pattern. For this reason a whole literature and a whole business have grown up around Sun-sign astrology; and many people exist who think there is nothing more to the horoscope than knowing what "sign you were born in" and what the Sun in that sign means. This is a mistake, as you will discover when you have read the influence of the other bodies. But throughout your reading, keep in mind always the basic influence of the Sun, and remember that all other influences must be interpreted in terms of it, especially in so far as other influences play a visible role in your life. You may think, dream, imagine, hope to be a thousand things, according to your Moon and your other planets, but the Sun is what you are, and to be your best self in terms of your Sun is to cause your energies to work along the path in which they will have maximum help from planetary vibrations. Sun in Virgo "Three things are to be looked to in a building: that it stand on the right spot, that it be securely founded, that it be successfully executed." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, born in Virgo, August 18, 1749. "The happiness of man consists in life. And life is in labor... The vocation of every man and woman is to serve other people." Count Tolstoy, born in Virgo, August 28, 1828. To discover the motivating drive in the life of any Virgoan, it is necessary to look at the work he is doing; for so deep is Virgo's utilitarian sense that he identifies himself with his work and is quite willing to lose himself in it. His personality and character development depend, to a peculiar extent, on the nature of the work he has set himself, for he will be as big or as small as his job or mission. He is capable of becoming single-tracked, absorbed and narrow over whatever he happens to fall into. He is capable of making work his god, and thus going high and far in a chosen direction. He is capable of expanding his spirit by selecting a career somehow related to service. He is capable of the extremes of self-denial if he thinks his work calls him to that. And he Horoscope of Birth Page 5 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake is also capable of feeling that his work requires self-immolation, self-limitation and self-sacrifice to an inordinate degree.However you figure it, the puzzle of his nature will be solved if you find his attitude toward the hub of his universe, his work. So true is this that when you run across an unemployed Virgoan you have the most woebegone and incomplete personality in the world. In losing his work, Virgo loses his whole reason for being. In its best forms, this makes for efficiency and brilliance in the performance of duty, and it may take the sense of duty into very humane realms of selflessness. In its worst form, it makes for narrowness of outlook, great inability to talk anything but shop, lack of interest in anything not related to work. So engrossed does Virgo become in his job (talk, mission, message or whatever he calls it) that he sometimes seems intent on destroying all the rest of the personality that doesn't belong to his work. He loses interest in extracurricular activities, so that his life is one long routine of keeping the nose to the grindstone, and he is unhappy when for some reason or other the grindstone stops or his nose gets away from it. To fix the aim high, to select a job that requires diverse talents and wide knowledge, is Virgo's best bet for a well-rounded life. If he has the misfortune to be able to find progress and security in a rut, he is likely to see only the progress and not realize it is a rut. He needs activities, companions, fun, diversions, hobbies to broaden his life, and should seek these along constructive lines lest his overtaxed body and brain force him to seek them in undesirable forms of escapism, brooding and introversion. Following are the aspects to your Sun. In a general way, the trines and sextiles to your Sun make ease, contentment, happiness, luck; while squares and oppositions give you energy, drive, success, ambition. Conjunctions bring both energy and luck, and are translatable in terms of whether the Sun receives squares or trines, along with the conjunction. Similarly, squares and trines to the Sun together bring success through work and perseverance, and luck develops in proportion to the work done and the effort extended. Your luck, energy, and direction work well together, and accomplishment is easy and fluent. Sun Conjunct Mercury Orb: 08°16' You have a sound mentality. Along whatever lines you work you are fundamentally sane. Men and women with this aspect have an assurance against serious or permanent mental difficulties which will carry them through a whole lot of stress and bring them out the right side. You have fixed opinions though you are not stubborn. You may appear wavering and flexible, but under this surface agreement, you are as likely as not to keep your own private theories very close to your heart. You are studious and sound in your intellectual work, but this position does not in itself make for creative ability. This will make for perseverance - the ability to add the ninety-nine percent of perspiration to genius's one percent of inspiration. Sun Conjunct Saturn Orb: 03°19' Your intense nature generally finds plenty to overcome in this world, for your nervous vigor is not accompanied by a commensurate physical vitality. You tire easily, and should not let your nervousness drive you faster than you can comfortably go. Responsibilities devolve on you early in life and they discourage you somewhat, causing you to withdraw into yourself. You dislike competition and want chiefly for the world to leave you alone. Your help is demanded, probably by a parent or by early domestic duties, and if you rebel against this and seek a career of your own you Horoscope of Birth Page 6 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake find obstacles to overcome. You are independent without being aggressive, and in the search for independence you are likely to fall into an easy rut from which you have difficulty in rising. You are a little self-centered for executive work and not cooperative enough for subordinate work. This is a lone-wolf position, and you may find yourself pretty lonely. In a woman's horoscope this indicates difficulties through men because of an early-formed psychological bias toward the father or an older relative. In a man's horoscope something of the same condition exists - a sort of father- or mother-worship contributing to an inferiority complex. You need the real, rather than the pseudo, self-confidence, for most of your independence is bravado and is not backed by self-reliance. You should develop this through increasing your contact with the world around you, by avoiding the secretive life you seek defensively, and by developing a willingness to compete in the world of affairs. Ignore your own emotions and sensitiveness which in the end will harden you if you don't watch them. Your intellectual powers and powers of concentration are good. You may develop them to good business activity and achieve considerable power, prestige, and authority for you are a magnetic person and have only to let your magnetism work outward instead of inward to get pretty much what you want out of the world. Moon While the Sun's position by sign determines what motives and urges dominate your life as it meets the naked eye, the sign position of the Moon tells the desire of your heart which may or may not be expressed or realized in your life. When you "know what you mean but you can't say it," it is your Moon that knows it and your Sun that can't say it. "Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears" are the thoughts of your Moon's nature. The wordless ecstasy, the mute sorrow, the secret dream, the esoteric picture of yourself that you can't get across to the world, or which the world doesn't comprehend or value - these are the products of the Moon in your horoscope. When you are misunderstood, it is your Moon nature, expressed imperfectly through the Sun sign, that you feel is betrayed. When you know what you ought to do, but can't find the right way to do it, it is your Moon that knows and your Sun that refuses to react in harmony. Also, when you "don't know why I said that," it was your Moon expressing despite your Sun (if you are innerly satisfied with the involuntary speech), or the Sun expressing against the will of the Moon (if you are displeased with what has slipped out). Things you know without thought - intuitions, hunches, instincts - are the products of the Moon. Modes of expression that you feel are truly your deepest self belong to the Moon: art, letters, creative work of any kind; sometimes love; sometimes business. Whatever you feel is most deeply yourself, whether or not you are able to do anything about it in the outer world, is the product of your Moon and of the sign your Moon occupies at birth. Moon in Taurus Your image of yourself is flattering not because of any special quality you select so much as because you just think well of yourself. This can make for smugness, conceit and laziness; and it always warns you not to take too seriously what you tell yourself, but to keep your eye on what other people think of you. Follow your Sun nature energetically or you will be lost in relaxation and uselessness. You have such a good time being pleased with life! You need to stimulate yourself consciously, for you are not a self starter. You're likely to be popular because, demanding little of Horoscope of Birth Page 7 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake yourself, you also demand little of others and are the most agreeable of companions. You are not likely to be ardent in human relations; you take what comes, especially if it isn't too much trouble. Your assumption that you have the good things of life coming to you generally is carried out in the facts; you seem to make your picture of yourself as a luxurious creature come true in material affairs. When you have learned to follow aggressively your solar urges, when you are determined to be before the world the best that your Sun sign has to offer, you go far. You then turn self-satisfaction into active self confidence, and you can have the world at your feet. The danger is that, sensing this, you won't ever do anything about it, will remain content in knowing you could if you would, and thus never be anything but a gracious, affable and charming person. And, of course, that's not to be sneezed at. Following are the aspects to your Moon. Look to the trines and sextiles to give you charm and clear-thinking; and to the squares and oppositions to provide you with concentration and driving force. Moon Trine Sun Orb: 08°30' This adds an element of luck to the life and will tend to strengthen any good, or minimize any evil, that may be indicated by the rest of the chart. It inclines to a strong, sound body and an ability to take the ups and downs of the world in your stride. While it will not negate in any large degree the difficulties of the powerful aspects, it will cushion the blow, give you internal resilience and external poise, as well as an elastic power to bounce back to normal from any personal or economic difficulty. Moon Trine Saturn Orb: 05°11' Character is your strong point: you have a keen sense of right and wrong. Your ideas run along conventional lines; you belong to the conservative, right-wing, pillar-of-society group, believing in noblesse oblige rather than in socialism. You incline to be serious, sober, a trifle proud and reserved, and maybe a little forbidding. Life is real and life is earnest to you, and you take yourself rather seriously. You inherit your mental traits directly from your mother, resembling her and her side of the family in your internal make-up if not in your appearance. Duty is important to you; you will never shirk a job and are capable of considerable self-sacrifice if you think your duty requires it. You are able to achieve this without self-pity, taking certain obligations for granted as your lot in life and approaching them with sobriety and philosophy. Concentrative powers are not strongly marked, and you have some tendency merely to accept what comes in the way of duty, without going out and creating opportunities for yourself. You lack aggression and that eternal tension that pushes men and women to the heights. Relaxation and contentment are your two worst enemies, for although they keep you from the blows of the world and allow you to maintain inner poise and calm, they also keep you from getting too far ahead. If you aren't contented you are likely to go on being discontented for a long time without doing anything about it. Control the restlessness of your body and put some restlessness into your mind, your spirit. What you need to do is work up steam in the boiler so that the engine can get places. Horoscope of Birth Page 8 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Moon Opposite Uranus Orb: 04°08' You have had a high temper in your day, and if you've controlled it the credit goes to your good sense. You are rebellious, headstrong, abrupt in speech, quick on the draw - a sort of hair-trigger personality, full of fire and dash that need the control of a vigorous intellect. This is one of the marks of the advanced thinker, the Bohemian who is a law unto himself and must make a conscious effort to get in line with society. You are on the side of the underdog, the downtrodden, the underprivileged and believe in some form of social control where inequalities may be ironed out. A great individualist, you none the less believe that society has duties to is members, that their individuality may be able to thrive the better. You are ardent in your loves, idealistic and impulsive and capable of deep loyalties through which, however, you can see the faults of the beloved - and say so in no uncertain terms. Tact is something you have to learn, for your uncompromising truthfulness and honesty make tact seem wasted time to you. You are sensitive of the feelings of others, and once your high-spiritedness is reined you are the most sympathetic and understanding of friends. Mercury Mercury is the sense-impression antennae of your horoscope. His position by sign indicates your reactions to sights, sounds, odors, tastes and touch impressions, affording a key to the attitude you have toward the physical world around you. Mercury is the messenger through which your physical body and brain (the Sun) and your inner nature (the Moon) are kept in contact with the outer world, which will appear to you according to the index of Mercury's position by sign in the horoscope. Mercury in Leo Your reaction to sense impressions from the outer world is less important than the way you react to the sound of your own voice, the figure you are cutting in the world. You see yourself in everything you see. You're hard to impress, for though you are detached enough in some ways, you haven't got your antennae tuned outward and just don't take in a lot that goes on. Your viewpoint is pretty fixed, and what comes to the senses is related to it. For this reason you aren't a very good observer. The outer world of sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch has to fight its way through a sort of steel plate before it reaches the brain centers and causes a reaction. Your reactions are slow, not because you are stupid, but because you aren't interested. You must cultivate attention, become consciously aware of the world around you, and develop your faculties, which are sound enough but need more exercise than you give them. Mercury Sextile Venus Orb: 05°46' Idealism is manifest, and also a leaning to the arts, either on the creative or the appreciative side. Even though creative powers are limited, there is a good deal of appreciation of fine things, and innate discrimination. The champagne taste that so often has to get along on the beer pocketbook. You may have friends among clever and intellectual people. You may marry someone from this group, for your affections are much bound up in your opinion of the loved one's mentality. You have a good deal of charm of manner, wit, and gayety to your speech, and probably Horoscope of Birth Page 9 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake have a very pleasant speaking (and perhaps also singing) voice. You don't shout even when you're angry, and you have a persuasive manner that wins people over. This is therefore good for salesmanship or the professions where personal contacts are of paramount importance. Mercury Sextile Mars Orb: 09°45' You have a facile quick mind, capable of grasping scientific facts and interested in them. But there's a good deal of a tendency to wasting your mental energies through lack of purpose, direction, and concentrative faculties. If other things show concentration, then this adds to the facility; if not, you'll have to fight against a tendency to skim the surface. A temptation to live by your wits is always present. If you hold yourself to a purpose your road to success is eased by quickness, perception, and ready grasp of details. Mercury Square Uranus Orb: 09°06' Quickness and mental facility are your gifts, with a periodic insight of great swiftness and accuracy but no great stability. Your mental control is not good, and your energies are wasted in temperament. You are independent in thought and action and your own mentor of opinion, frequently differing violently from established authority - and more likely than not to get into trouble through tactlessness. You like to talk back to policemen. The revolutionary spirit is strong in you with a "whatever it is, I'm against it" attitude. You like a battle of wits and will take the other side of the argument just for the fun of it or to help out the underdog. Your great independence and vigor of mind can make you a leader of thought when you have learned to get the chip off your shoulder. Mercury Trine Neptune Orb: 06°21' This aids intuition and reasoning powers; and with other indications of creative and concentrative gifts lends an inspirational quality to the work. If no creative power is shown this aspect is unimportant, giving balance to the mind, glibness and facility to the speech, and lending charm to the voice. You have a kind of detached and abstract viewpoint on knowledge, loving it for its own sake. You are thus anxious to satisfy your intellectual curiosity even with odds and ends of information that you may never use. It helps the memory and makes you a good story teller, for you don't forget much, and something is always reminding you. Mercury Sextile Pluto Orb: 07°02' You are fascinated by the enigmatic or bizarre, and your thinking is geared to gaining a deep understanding of the mysteries of life. Because of this, you are a natural researcher and student of the occult, the sciences, psychology and astrology. You aren't satisfied by the dogmas or theories that others are content with; your search is for a personal truth, a notion of your place in the cosmos. Although you are secretive by nature, there is nothing that gives you more pleasure than digging into other people's secrets. Your determination helps you to learn a subject in considerable depth or to get to the bottom of neighborhood gossip. You have to exert yourself to develop your mental resources, since you are apt to coast along, learning only what comes easiest. Concentration and discipline should be cultivated. Once they have been developed, you can use your powers of persuasion to lead others gently. Horoscope of Birth Page 10 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Venus Venus is the emotional antenna of your horoscope. Through Venus, impressions come to you from the outer world because of which you feel and react emotionally. The position of Venus by sign at the time of your birth gives the key to your attitude toward these emotional experiences. As Mercury is the messenger linking sense impressions (sight, smell, etc.) to the basic nature of your Sun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus in Libra Your emotions are simple, direct, crystal clear. You are one of the young and pure in heart. The difficulties of life don't destroy your faith in the beauty of love, and since this is the sort of faith that vindicates itself, you are likely to find more genuine happiness in life than most. You are easily hurt, but you aren't touchy about it; you can't hold a grudge, or even condemn those who hurt you. You have a knack for thinking the best of people who repay you by thinking the best of you. The directness of your response to social relations, the genuineness of your affections, which you express with a combination of sincerity and impersonality - these endear you to many, make you a sought-after companion and guest and a charming host or hostess. You can safely allow emotional experience to be the breath of your life because when it is filtered through your clarifying responses it is a pure, sweet and exhilarating air. Venus Conjunct Mars Orb: 03°59' You are extremely attractive to the opposite sex. This is the position par excellence of those who have what is known as IT. Others have it, to be sure, but you have it in a peculiarly magnetic form, and there is nothing that can take it away from you. You are also somewhat lucky in financial matters, even though you love to spend money perhaps not always in practical ways. You seem protected from want despite the fact that money has a way of running through your fingers. While impressionable in love matters you have a certain hard streak in you that may be the despair of sweethearts and admirers. You are conscious of your powers and do not hesitate to use them. You crave admiration, excitement, adulation - and above all you need the devotion of one person - that is, of one at a time; for you are not constant in the strict sense of that word. You may regard yourself as a model of devotion and loyalty, but this isn't going to keep you from flirtations when the mood is upon you. This is an excellent aspect for dealing with large bodies of people and for artistic work of any sort. There is a sort of fire to your manner of expression that catches the public imagination. Your magnetism is capable of spreading far and wide under other favorable conditions. On the other hand, your emotions are likely to get you into trouble and to cause you a good deal of sorrow. Some early disappointment in the matter of love has been sitting on you for a long time like a heavy weight, and not allowing you to enjoy the admiration you get. You have to be careful that a somewhat adolescent attitude toward romance doesn't follow you into maturity. You are one of these people who is perennially youthful - just be sure you aren't perpetually childish! In any case, your love life probably started very early - almost shockingly early - and is likely to continue late - "Age does not wither, nor custom stale, its infinite variety!" Venus Sextile Neptune Orb: 00°35' You are romantic, charming, alluring - and impressionable. You are idealistic, always looking Horoscope of Birth Page 11 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake for perfection in your sweethearts and in the world and blissfully certain that even though it may elude you, it's there and will be found eventually. You are more trusting than erring mankind deserves. You can be fooled by one person and, in the twinkling of an eye, trust someone else who may be even less trustworthy. You are attracted to out-of-the-way people - waifs and strays, down-and-outers, and can get yourself into a lot of trouble by believing in crooks, frauds, sensationalists, adventurers, and out-right seducers. Unless you lead a pretty sheltered life you will be taken in and shaken down at some time or other. Much deception and treachery occurs with respect to love matters. This is one of the supporting factors for material luck in life. You may enjoy great wealth. Venus Conjunct Pluto Orb: 01°16' You are extremely loyal to and solicitous of those you love, without a cloying sentimentality. Your values and thoughts center on love, which can easily become the hub of your life. Early in a relationship, you are apt to be jealous and possessive, but with time and experience this can be transformed into a higher, more mature type of attachment. You are willing to give your all to your beloved but demand the same in return. Your strongest desire is for an all-consuming love that will bring you satisfaction on all levels: emotional, physical and spiritual. With aspects to Mars or Neptune, there could be a preoccupation with or compulsive attitude toward sex. Mars Mars is the energy principle in the horoscope. His position by sign indicates the channels into which energy will naturally flow, and the uses to which energy will most easily be directed. It is the planet through which the activities of the Sun and the desires of the Moon express in action - through which your body and your mind react to the sense impressions of Mercury and the emotional impressions of Venus. Mars is in the same sign with your Venus, Mars quickens emotional reactions and causes you to act on them; it makes for ardor and passion in love, and a general earthly awareness of emotional realities. Mars in Libra Your social urges are powerful - sometimes too powerful for your own good. You are emotionally impressionable-your energies flow out to others and carom back to you with the added magnetism of other people, good or bad. You are sensitive to what you call love, and one way or another will have a lot of it in your life. You seem to sense instinctively that you are too impressionable, and in an effort to seem more independent than you are, will quarrel unnecessarily with those who impress you most forcibly - it is your defense against succumbing to them utterly. You must string for true cooperativeness of spirit, instead of being alternately as meek as a lamb and as mad as a hornet. Your energies and your emotions are always working together or against each other: your emotions express energetically and physically, and your energies run wild through emotional channels. You require detachment of spirit, objectivity of approach to other people, and moderation in the social and love instincts which tend to run away with you, upset your life and destroy your peace. Learn to accept other people more easily, to achieve true union with others and to fight down all extremes of human relations. Enmity and anger disturb the ego centers in you more than in most people; to be your best self requires harmony, and to achieve true harmony, you Horoscope of Birth Page 12 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake must learn that living with others is a two-way business and is not helped either by complete self-surrender or complete self-assertion. Mars Sextile Neptune Orb: 03°24' You have marked personal magnetism. Opportunities open up to you readily. You have a somewhat mystical, spiritual, or religious nature - a degree of superstition, and a belief in your internal powers. This frequently accompanies belief in Christian Science, Unity, or cults that deal in mind power. It isn't a very important aspect in itself but it lends color to your personality and sharpens your aesthetic and artistic senses. You control people by charming them. A mildly hypnotic power of which you may not be conscious assists all human relationships. You rely a good deal on hunches, especially about people. 'If this aspect is accompanied by strong and reasonable mental tendencies you may not even be conscious of its action, but rest assured it is responsible for the quickness of your insight, reasoning powers, and general mental astuteness. It eases the course of emotional matters somewhat; it is a passive rather than an active ally to accomplishment in all fields. Mars Conjunct Pluto Orb: 02°43' Your natural fortitude makes you a tower of strength in bad times as well as good. Your ability to face the truth about yourself, life and the situations you encounter helps you to adapt, and thus progress, with relative ease, making changes when and where needed. One problem has to be overcome, however: You range between extremes of action and inaction, energy and inertia. You can push yourself long past the point at which others give up, and this helps you accomplish much. On the other hand, you do nothing at all if you doubt your ability to cope with a situation or problem. Self-control and discipline are exercised only when you see the need for them but, when this happens, you progress quickly and surely, directing your abundant energy toward important goals. Jupiter Jupiter is the feeler you have out in the world for opportunity. Through it the chances of a lifetime are passed along for consideration according to the basic nature of Sun and Moon. Jupiter's sign position indicates the places in which you will look for opportunity, the uses to which you wish to put it, and the capacity you have to react to and profit by it. Jupiter is ordinarily, and erroneously, called the Planet of Luck. It is "luck" in so far as it is the index of opportunity; but your luck depends less on what comes to you (Jupiter) than on what you do with it (the total personality). Opportunity appeals to you along lines laid down by your Jupiter. Jupiter in Cancer This position causes you to see opportunity along lines that promote security and luxury, and is therefore an excellent business, money-making position. You aren't grasping, but you are careful, because your wants are comparatively great, and you strive in every way you can to satisfy them. The final end of opportunity is to you a pleasantly furnished home with all the trimmings of luxury, and one way or another you will generally have it. You will not see opportunity along lines that Horoscope of Birth Page 13 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake jeopardize this, and play your hand close to your chest, even when you may appear to be daring. You have just as much regard for the security and comfort of others as you have for your own, and thus are generous, charitable and openhanded with what you possess. Home, children, friends are important, and in gratifying this side of your ego, you are likely to become a substantial and respectable pillar of the society whose niceties you value and want for your own. Saturn Saturn indicates the direction that will be taken in life by the self-preservative principle which, in its highest manifestation, ceases to be purely defensive and becomes ambitious and aspirational. Your defense, or attack, against the world is shown by the sign position of Saturn in the horoscope of birth. With Saturn in the same sign as Sun, defense predominates, and there is danger of introversion. The further Saturn is from Sun, Moon and Ascendant, the better for objectivity and extroversion. Saturn in Virgo This position in its best form finds justification in work or service, is a bear for detail, and a tough drillmaster but no executive. You're a stickler for rules and methods, and can fail to see the forest for the trees. This is a narrowing position and should not be taken as the hub of the life, though your tendency is to feel pretty well pleased with yourself if you are doing efficiently and accurately what is expected of you. You will work overtime to do what you have to do thoroughly, or to do added work that is in the direct line of duty. But you probably won't work overtime on something that could broaden your scope unless some other indication in the chart is very impelling and very broad in effect. In its worst form, you complain about work, and may refuse to work at all; this occurs if your whole personality is shown to be passive or resentful, when Saturn in Virgo seems to make all the burdens of the world light on your shoulder for you to complain about. To do what's expected of you carefully and gracefully, without allowing duty and detail to limit your viewpoint, is the way to justify yourself without hampering progress. Saturn Sextile Uranus Orb: 09°19' You are supported by apparently inexplicable forces, able to put across plans that others fail in and you will build your plans swiftly. If you are an artist, engineer, architect, railroad man, military or naval leader, or politician, there is a touch of the unusual about you or your work. You are a striking personality, able to "get away with" very odd ideas which unaccountably work out. There's a touch of inspirationalism about you, a quick constructive perceptivity, that wins supporters and seems magnetically to attract success. Uranus Uranus in a general way relates to the neuro-mentality, creative originality or individuality, and his position by sign in the horoscope tells the direction along which you will seek to express your most characteristic self in creative and original effort. Horoscope of Birth Page 14 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Uranus in Scorpio Uranus in Scorpio causes your genius to work through deep wells of the subconscious and makes for tremendous power for good or bad. You are angel or devil - or, at different times, both. Your personal magnetism is powerful, and you seek for your originality personal tribute from the world or from individuals. You can be content with the worship (or fear) of a small circle and can, because of this, be capable of limiting the scope of your great powers. Love, or sex, is important to you; you rule others if you control yourself, and if you don't, you are the slave to others, or to your own instincts, which are very powerful. You are capable of gratifying your need for power by identifying yourself with machinery, and are often successful in mechanical or engineering fields, where you are able to feel your own strength in the strength of the machine you make or operate. You love speed and feel at home when moving swiftly. If self-controlled, you are a powerful executive requiring absolute military obedience. Your deep need for self control is manifest in your worship of method, system, efficiency and obedience. You should learn the law of obedience in the abstract, allow your great magnetism to express itself freely without mastering you, and thus have the world at your feet. Neptune Neptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality, indicating what you take deeply for granted in life. Neptune in Sagittarius Sagittarius is symbolized by the Centaur - a mythical half horse / half man, and so we find Neptune in this sign characterized by conflict between the Higher and Lower Selves. There is much interest in religion and mythology. There is the desire to explore, travel, move about, try new ideas, experiment with new ways of seeing and feeling things. But just as there is an emphasis on "Spiritual" things, so is there an emphasis on Sensuality. There may be considerable prophetic ability, and there are many inspirations and vivid dreams. The intuition is highly developed and generally dependable in the professions of journalism and teaching. Neptune in Sagittarius is expansive and exuberant, even extravagant. The Spirit of Adventure is high, and there is deep interest in new areas such as parapsychology, esoteric healing methods, mind-drugs, etc. Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 00°41' The ideas that were instilled in you by your parents, church and society will undergo changes throughout your life until your religious and philosophical views are distinctly your own. This type of creative adaptability makes you able to forgo selfish concerns and direct your efforts toward the betterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible. Pluto Pluto relates to the ability to let go of things, to get rid of irrelevant prejudices and outdated habit patterns. It relates to subconscious feelings, inner urges and repressed emotions. A strong Pluto gives the ability to see the hidden side of life, and thus bestows power on the native - power Horoscope of Birth Page 15 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake which can be used for good or ill. In the same sign as Venus, Pluto gives a strong love nature, with a tendency to be possessive and self-indulgent. In the same sign as Mars, Pluto increases the independence and ego strength, and gives power over others. Courage and cruelty can both be present. Pluto in Libra Your search for ultimate meaning is connected to one of the noblest constructs of civilized society - its sense of justice. Your mind is finely tuned to other people and their needs, and you realize that the only way an individual can be completely free is through the highest application of the law. Discrepancies in legal matters, which seem to ensure a particular freedom but in fact limit it, are instantly spotted by you. Empathy pervades your interaction with other people, and you cannot be totally satisfied while those around you are in bondage of any type. The misuse or abuse of the law will draw down your special ire, and your life's energy is likely to be concentrated on fighting for other people's rights. Horoscope of Birth Page 16 Current Transits The current transits are calculated exactly for the date shown. Lewi wrote text only for the aspects that he considered to be the most significant and only those are shown in this report. The dates shown only represent the times when the aspect is exact; its influence is felt for weeks, months, and sometimes even years around this time. A planet will often make the same aspect several times in one year before it leaves that area of the zodiac and moves on. This is due to the planet appearing to go backward or retrograde for a period of time and crossing and recrossing the aspect point. When this happens the effect of the aspect can be spread out over a considerable time and in this report the aspect and text will be printed for each time it becomes exact, although this series of aspects represents only one pass through this phase of its cycle. Remember that each transiting aspect is part of its over-all cycle and indicates a change of direction as well as an event. The cycle for a planet is the time it takes that planet to travel the entire 360° of the zodiac, beginning at the point where the planet is found at birth (the conjunction point), moving to the 90° point which Lewi calls the "lower square", then moving to the opposition or 180° point. Then it begins to move back towards the starting point, at the 270° point, or 90° away from the starting point, the planet is at its "upper square", and then it returns to the conjunction point where a new cycle is begun. Lewi will occasionally refer to these points in his text by name. In general all transits, whether of a planet to its own place or of one planet to another, mark cycles of growth beginning at the conjunction point, growing through the first square, fully grown at the opposition point, beginning to recede at the second or upper square, and finally starting a new cycle as it reaches the conjunction point again. How long any aspect will be in effect is determined by the speed of the planet making the aspect (the first planet , i.e. Mars in Mars Opposite Sun). One Mars cycle is about two or two and one-half years and so a Mars aspect will last about 20 to 30 days. Jupiter takes about 12 years for its cycle and so its aspects could last around 4 months, while Saturn with a 29 year cycle will last 9 months or even more if it turns retrograde. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all long range aspects and usually represent a time of 2 or more years. While Saturn and the outer planets indicate long range influences in your life, Mars aspects will identify important months and Jupiter will identify important years. Not every occurrence of these will be of striking importance. But within a larger Saturn cycle or Uranus period of great importance, these briefer influences will be found to act as the second or minute hand of the clock of destiny, as Saturn, or Uranus, or both, act as the hour hand. Feb 26, 2014 - Mars Square Jupiter This will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or through over-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is too Current Transits Page 17 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck.

The outlook is too enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck. Mar 27, 2014 - Uranus Opposite Mars Erroneous methods in contacting the world lead to loss of self confidence. You stand in your own light. Fear supplants assurance, and when you try to assert yourself, you tend to arrogance. You know what you mean, but you can't say it and when you try, you are misunderstood. Quarrels, setbacks, stoppage of progress and a sense of frustration result; you emerge shaken and in need of rest. Few go through this period without being put in their place. It is unfortunate to have this aspect coincide with one indicating opportunity, for this will probably cause you to muff it. Lie as low as possible and make self-effacement your credo. You win by retreating. This is a time of passive resistance to circumstances, not for pitched battle with them. You may experience accidents - both literal and figurative. Trace out carefully the part you have played in your own failure in this period; to learn this is to understand yourself better. Apr 14, 2014 - Saturn Square Mercury This aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study and thought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which work and self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no good becomes acute. Keeping your mind on things outside yourself helps. Study, reading and writing are excellent, though creativeness and originality fail you. Don't worry must be your motto; also Face the facts. Escapism leads into bad nervous tangles. This is a good aspect to have while in school or college, when opportunity for study is greatest and the "cold, cold world" is not yet a reality that you have to consider. Corning later when you're out in the "cold, cold world," it indicates a period when you can return to the student state to good advantage, putting your mind on objective fact rather than on emotional concerns. Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraint and efficiency. Apr 16, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Venus Heightened emotions make romance, which is favored if you keep it within the bounds of reason and convention. Impulsive acts, with or without a future, are frequently found in these recurrent periods. Glamour surrounds your approach to life; you are susceptible to the opposite sex and they to you. This transit frequently indicates the time of marriage within the period of a longer transit that favors it. If the era of romance is past, this indicates an active and on the whole satisfactory social period; business progress; extravagance with money; a sudden urge to go places Current Transits Page 18 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake and do things - and perhaps a chafing at the marital bit which should not be taken too seriously. Energies work through emotions and passions, which in turn work overtime and should be gently disciplined though not entirely submerged. Often, for obvious reasons, this transit indicates the conception of children, especially if it occurs while Mars is conjunct your sun or conjunct your Mars. Apr 19, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks. Care should be taken to secure your holding, protect your possessions and yourself, for this transit includes some vulnerability to the principle of redistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emerge from this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events as keynotes of respect for structure and self-care. Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and the tendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take time to treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a more service-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, this could be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Apr 28, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Mars This is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideas promoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellent advantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is the time when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. You are starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the next twenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into which to direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling your oats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrent two year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments, activity and changes. Apr 30, 2014 - Jupiter Square Pluto This is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter can inflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - than ever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death or becoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at a distance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a great time for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into the ante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of the class curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever.

Jun 21, 2014 - Uranus Opposite Venus The aspect of bohemianism, free love, the individual seeking for salvation through love or what passes for love. There is danger of breaks, quarrels, sensationalism, heartache and headache. This may result in rebellion against conventions, loss of prestige (and money). A devil-may-care attitude which, if you have the stomach for adventure and the "one moment of rapture," can be very exciting before you wake up in the cold gray dawn of the morning after. Coleridge wrote long ago: The sensual and the dark rebel in vain, Slaves by their own compulsion. In mad game They break their manacles, and wear the name Of freedom, graven on a heavier chain. This is a good stanza to think of once in a while when you're going through this period when you take yourself much too seriously for any good use.

Jul 4, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct Jupiter This transit marks a twelve-year cycle and a period in which important plans and ideas are revised. It may indicate big new steps, like marriage, business partnership, independent or cooperative ventures that have long-term implications. Note especially the occurrences at the twenty-fourth and thirty-sixth years, which frequently indicate the conclusion of one sort of life and the beginning of another. Opportunity accumulates, and your response to it is at its most characteristic; thus the development here suits you down to the ground. The present time calls for self-control since the existence of welcome opportunity is no guarantee that you will handle it right. The knock of opportunity is at the door - but you have to open the door and concentrate on entering the guest, for the benefits that come without effort go just as effortlessly if you don't hold onto them. Note the nearby Saturn transit and make it your guide to action in order to develop the opportunity of Jupiter. Jul 9, 2014 - Pluto Square Mars You don't want to submit to anyone's authority, not even when it is necessary. If you're ever apt to talk back to a policeman, this will be the time. the problem is that your energy is so high and uncontrolled now that you're likely to put yourself in a position where you do attract authority's attention, whether it be through speeding or arguments with co-workers. Even if you're an otherwise sensitive person, this recklessness may cause you to act without considering the consequences, so hurt feelings through an uncompromising attitude and quarrels at home and work are a distinct possibility. Because you try to do so much at once without a thought to safety, there is also the possibility or accidents. Self-control may come harder now, but the more you fight the idea of discipline the more you need it. Directing your energy into constructive channels helps you to accomplish much more. Jul 21, 2014 - Mars Square Jupiter This will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or through over-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is too enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck. Current Transits Page 21 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Aug 10, 2014 - Mars Opposite Moon Fatigue leads to strife, so relax. There may be illness and you may lose your grip on things. Refuse to take yourself too seriously. Go to bed and rest instead of brooding; you'll avoid strife and trouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance which may or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time with this. Aug 17, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Uranus Expect temperament, haste and anxiety. Your nerves require watching. These problems can lead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) from excess speed and lack of care over details. Watch temperament. Accidents in the realm of human relations result from overemphasizing the ego and minimizing the other fellow's viewpoint. Inventiveness abounds; originality is in the saddle; but you can't get your best and truest ideas over to any good advantage, and simply make trouble if you "try too hard." Store them up for a later time when you express them better and when other people listen to you more readily. Look out for machinery, travel, electricity; avoid danger, be careful getting on and off trains and crossing streets. Aug 21, 2014 - Uranus Opposite Venus The aspect of bohemianism, free love, the individual seeking for salvation through love or what passes for love. There is danger of breaks, quarrels, sensationalism, heartache and headache. This may result in rebellion against conventions, loss of prestige (and money). A devil-may-care attitude which, if you have the stomach for adventure and the "one moment of rapture," can be very exciting before you wake up in the cold gray dawn of the morning after.

This is a good stanza to think of once in a while when you're going through this period when you take yourself much too seriously for any good use. Aug 24, 2014 - Jupiter Square Moon These are periods of physical and mental excess, generally resulting in fatigue and a necessity to take time off and rest. Self-indulgence wears you out and requires a holiday. This is a good time for a vacation. If you can afford to relax (and you really can't afford not to), you can enjoy life here. Be careful of excesses with money and emotions, protect your diet. The pleasures of food and drink are very alluring and make plenty of trouble if indulged in. Sep 1, 2014 - Mars Square Mercury Quick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. The quick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur about every six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lasting Current Transits Page 22 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake grudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent. Sep 13, 2014 - Mars Square Sun Domestic matters are important. This transit frequently times a move from one house (or town or locality) to another, or some important decision in the private life. New starts work out if well considered and unmotivated by temperament. Social activity is increased; you have lots of friends around you. This is a good time to begin new ventures for quick completion, ventures which have a bearing on your longer-range plans. This is a good time to clean house, redecorate, etc. The home is likely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead of figurative and quarrelsome. Oct 6, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Neptune Super intuition gives you uncanny insight into motives and methods of other people, but not always into your own. Practice self-analysis. You swiftly feel your creative power, of which you can make good use. Beware sensationalism, sentimentality, self-indulgence; fight subconscious urges, suppressed desires, and make your inner ego work for you along constructive lines. This is an excellent period for creative work, for impersonal use of magnetism for business ends and aims and for social popularity. You have glamour that attracts others: be sure it attracts the right kind of people and for the right reasons. The Old Adam rears his head and may require discipline. Oct 14, 2014 - Saturn Square Mercury This aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study and thought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which work and self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no good becomes acute.

Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraint and efficiency. Nov 11, 2014 - Mars Square Mars This transit indicates a period of hard work and abundant energies, which causes no trouble unless major disruptive influences are in force. There is a slight tendency to talk too much, boast and be arrogant, but the swiftness of the pace generally carries you through without major trouble. You should not let distractions interfere with plans you started when Mars was conjunct Mars on Jun 12, 2014. Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rule the emotions. Current Transits Page 23 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Nov 15, 2014 - Mars Square Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks.

Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Nov 16, 2014 - Mars Square Venus Social and romantic glamour leads to excesses, sometimes to strife, quarrels, separations. Minor loves and friendships break up, but important relations are merely strained; and indeed this frequently adds glamour to a deep love, intensifying its beauty. A break here, unless contributed to by some more important transit, is a sure index that the feeling wasn't very deep or important anyway. Avoid excess spending and stay away from temptation if you're interested in sticking to the conventions. Nov 17, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct Mercury You become sure of your beliefs, but that's no assurance that what you believe is right. This period finds you stubborn and self-willed; your interpretation of what you see and hear is very clear to you, whether right or wrong. Nobody can tell you anything. This can be a good or a bad period, depending on what you tell yourself and what you encourage yourself to believe. Once you have made up your mind, you'll stick to your course through thick and thin. If your determined course is reasonable, you go far by sticking to it. If it is unreasonable or self-indulgent, you will stick to it and go just as far in the wrong direction. This can be an excellent transit when it comes after the judgment is mature; then you gain by standing pat and following a sound course; you win popularity and progress through integrity and stick-to-it-iveness and also through the favor of important people who value these things. Coming before the judgment is sound, it is touch and go whether it leads you up or down, as you follow your own bent. Whatever it does, it results in experience, from which, sooner or later, you learn some important and sobering lessons. Generally indicates financial gain, or at least security. Dec 1, 2014 - Pluto Square Mars You don't want to submit to anyone's authority, not even when it is necessary. If you're ever apt to talk back to a policeman, this will be the time. the problem is that your energy is so high and uncontrolled now that you're likely to put yourself in a position where you do attract authority's attention, whether it be through speeding or arguments with co-workers.

There may be illness and you may lose your grip on things. Refuse to take yourself too seriously. Go to bed and rest instead of brooding; you'll avoid strife and trouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance which may or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time with this. Dec 21, 2014 - Mars Square Uranus This transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But at one of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace and direction of the life - is likely to occur. The individuality is suddenly awakened to broader horizons, greater worlds to conquer, and determined to shake off the shackles of restraint. In undisciplined persons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacks due to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of these periods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable and probably nothing to be proud of. Dec 25, 2014 - Saturn Square Sun This marks a period of new starts. It is usually accompanied by the breaking of old ties and the acceptance of new obligations or new maturity. It can mark departure from home and the taking of one's place in the world; graduation from school and the beginning of a career; marriage, as the break from one tie and the establishment of another; a business break and a new start. It always indicates a slow period; the reorganized life is getting its foundations established along new lines that require serious personal readjustments. And because all readjustments take a good deal out of you, it may be a period of tension, strife with those around you, and resentment that things do not develop as fast as you would like them to. It is a bad period only if you expect miracles of progress, for the miracles will not come off. You cannot, by being anxious, add one cubit to your stature in this period, or one foot per hour to your speed. You have to take things as they come and moderate the pace of your desires to conform with the pace of the world. It is an excellent period if you are Current Transits Page 25 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake willing to do this. Things begun slowly and carefully, with an eye to a long plan, work out well. Ambitions aimed at with patience will be achieved in from seven to fourteen years; any ambition that won't stand the test of this length of time should be ignored. To catch the rhythm and pace of events at this time is to build truly for success of the highest sort in the long run; while to rebel and run ahead of yourself is to find exhaustion and despair and to be forced to start over again later, under less permanently helpful influences. Dec 29, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct Mercury You become sure of your beliefs, but that's no assurance that what you believe is right. This period finds you stubborn and self-willed; your interpretation of what you see and hear is very clear to you, whether right or wrong. Nobody can tell you anything.

Jan 1, 2015 - Mars Opposite Mercury Quick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. The quick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur about every six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lasting grudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent. Jan 12, 2015 - Mars Opposite Sun This transit is likely to mark periods of quarrels, strife, disagreements, difficulty in getting along with people. It is therefore a good time to lie low and be silent; to observe and do your duty without argument or fuss. Conserve strength: there is a tendency to go to extremes. Adventuresomeness and romance run riot and kick up a lot of trouble. New contacts are exciting but not necessarily of any permanent worth. If other transits indicate a generally good period, increased energy here can bring good results; under negative transits you should lie as low as possible and avoid getting into trouble. There may be accidents or illness. Jan 31, 2015 - Saturn Square Saturn This lower (waxing) square comes seven years after the Saturn-Saturn conjunction and should mark a period of achievement in line with the lessons learned seven years earlier. The choices made then, if wise, have led to accomplishment; a minor cycle has been completed; and you should be moving forward smoothly toward a point of maximum attainment to be reached in about another seven years. Some shift in method - but no change in basic direction - may be indicated here. Current Transits Page 26 Heaven Knows What MIINumber33 Knowflake Changes, both in the material world and in thinking, are important and should be related carefully to basic goals. Some temperament needs fighting down; the personal tends to intrude over the practical and must be put firmly back in its place. Current Transits Page 27 IP: Logged |

Chart Data Page 2 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Introduction Grant Lewi (1902 - 1951) is a legendary figure among twentieth century astrologers. He was a writer and editor for the two largest astrological magazines of the time. His two books, Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions , were the first astrological books to become best sellers and even today, over fifty years later, they remain among the best introductions to the subject of astrology. The astrological interpretations found in Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions were unique, fresh, and simple. Llewellyn George, the prominent astrologer of the time, remarked that Lewi's interpretations must be intuitive because they were unlike any that had been written before him. Today these interpretations remain energetic and forceful and, though some references are now dated, Lewi's text still provides some of the clearest insights found anywhere in the literature of astrology. Lewi was determined to make astrology more accessible to the average person, but while popularizing the subject he never watered it down or reduced it to the level found in "sun sign" astrology. Writing before computers were available, he made his books function as the computer, providing the reader with tables to generate their own charts or horoscopes and then linking his interpretations to the information found there. Lewi would have made good use of the computer, so much in his books seem to anticipate them. In his writing he tried to emulate the interpretation process by using a computerless version of artificial intelligence: the meaning of a planet in a sign doesn't stand alone but is modified by the other aspects found in your chart. Many of his comments depend on a combination of factors and for this reason you will sometimes find that he has something different to say about an aspect in your chart than he does for the same aspect in your friend's chart. This report calculates your chart for you and then collects all of Lewi's comments strictly according to the astrological factors found there. The text contained here is valid even for those who don't know their time of birth - Lewi focused on those factors that are in effect throughout the birthday. The only exception to this is the case of the Moon which can move between 12 and 14 degrees in a day, so if the positions were calculated for noon then the Moon could be as much as 6 or 7 degrees different and possibly even change signs. If you don't know your time and the texts that involve the Moon seem unlikely, you may wish to compare reports done for the beginning and the end of the day. At all times, Lewi’s aim has been to show how astrology can be used as an aid in living a more satisfying and fulfilling life. Astrology offers indications and pointers - and sometimes insights - to situations that you find in life. It doesn’t tell you what to do about them, but if it offers you a better understanding of the situation, then you are in a better position to decide for yourself what to do. To quote Grant Lewi: "It is not limitations that eats out the heart, but inaction, the knowledge of powers not used, the sense of having failed to develop to the utmost. The overcoming of fate is not the overcoming of Introduction Page 3 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake limitations: that is impossible. It is the exercise of free will, the assertion of the full self, expanding to its utmost with the tools at hand, in the circumstances that are set. Astrology, through the interpretation of the horoscope, assists men to the achievement of their maximum by indicating to them the lines along which their will may be most progressively applied, the goals to be sought, and the individual means by which each one may arrive at the outermost boundaries of his world." Horoscope of Birth Your horoscope of birth is the blueprint of your personality and character as indicated by the position of the Sun, the Moon and the eight planets on the date of your birth. This section is devoted to each of these members of the solar system. The planets are the antennae and arms of the horoscope, of which the body and soul are the Sun and Moon. No planet will ever cause you to act counter to the testimony of the Sun and Moon in their combined influence on you. Remember this when you proceed with the following readings. All planetary vibration must be considered in light of the basic solar-lunar readings, for these are your character, your basic nature, which the planets will help or hinder but cannot materially change. According to the sign position of your Sun, one planet will be more important than the others and should probably be read first. Your Sun is in Aquarius and your dominant planet is Saturn (and Uranus). Not only the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also the attribute over which it rules. Thus Gemini, ruled by Mercury, lives a great deal in the senses; Libra, ruled by Venus, responds most readily to emotional stimuli; and so on. Study your ruler carefully. Remember in all planetary readings that they work within the pattern of your solar-lunar nature; never against it. The synthesis of your horoscope from the following series of paragraphs to a working unit depends on your keeping this in mind, which will enable you to weld all the readings into a unified and significant whole. Sun in Aquarius and Moon in Libra You are highly social-minded, romantic in the extreme, and will have your share of the ups and downs of love. You are constantly being disappointed by the duplicity, the infidelity, the faithlessness, and the fickleness in those you love. You are able to give your affections to the most outlandish people and to be surprised when you aren't able to hold them. On the other hand, they may have a hard time holding you, for you are an elusive creature, liking what you like when you like it and tending to tire of it rather quickly. You hold the illusion that you are fidelity itself, but, at the drop of a hat, you can find a reason why you shouldn't be faithful. You are well able to understand the sentimentality of "I have been true to you, Cynara, in my fashion." Your fashion may indeed be a strange one. But you are a person of considerable charm, magnetism, personality, and fundamental sincerity, and when you get your emotional life settled - marriage is a real necessity to you! - you are a most charming, constructive person. You understand people and, Horoscope of Birth Page 4 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake knowing well the foibles of humanity, you are tolerant and sympathetic; an ideal confidant. You will succeed best in some artistic or professional career where your idealism and expressiveness has full sway; or in business, for you are a good salesman, persuasive and forceful without being objectionable. You know how to sell your product along with yourself, and vice versa. You lack persistence, and if you can't put things over in one fell swoop, you are likely to lose interest. The development of the aesthetic side of your nature, either on the critical, appreciative, or creative side, will do much to stabilize your purposes and give you a goal that is compatible with your highly idealistic bent. Sun The Sun indicates the appearance you will present before the world and the psychological bias which will dominate your actions. What you seem, and why, are told in the reading for your Sun. In many ways the Sun is the dominant force in your horoscope and in your life. Other influences, especially that of the Moon, may modify the Sun's influence, but nothing will cause you to depart very far from the basic solar pattern. For this reason a whole literature and a whole business have grown up around Sun-sign astrology; and many people exist who think there is nothing more to the horoscope than knowing what "sign you were born in" and what the Sun in that sign means. This is a mistake, as you will discover when you have read the influence of the other bodies. But throughout your reading, keep in mind always the basic influence of the Sun, and remember that all other influences must be interpreted in terms of it, especially in so far as other influences play a visible role in your life. You may think, dream, imagine, hope to be a thousand things, according to your Moon and your other planets, but the Sun is what you are, and to be your best self in terms of your Sun is to cause your energies to work along the path in which they will have maximum help from planetary vibrations. Sun in Aquarius "God must have loved the common people; he made so many of them." "With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right." Abraham Lincoln, born in Aquarius, February 12, 1809. "We face the arduous days that lie ahead in the warm courage of national unity; with the clear consciousness of seeking old and precious moral values; with the keen satisfaction that comes from the stern performance of duty by young and old alike. We aim at the assurance of a rounded and permanent national life. We do not distrust the future of essential Democracy." Franklin D. Roosevelt, born in Aquarius, January 30, 1882. The motivating force behind Aquarius is some form of the gregarious, or herd, instinct. He likes Horoscope of Birth Page 5 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake folks. He is sociable. In a higher manifestation, he is social. In a lower manifestation, he thinks that the world - the folks - owe him a living. Any way you look at the Aquarian, and whatever Aquarian you look at, you will find folks at the censor of his attitude. Either he depends on them or they depend on him. The sign can go either way. Whether he is a social reformer, or a hobo, people will be around him; he will be holding them up, or they will be holding him up. He thinks himself a great individualist, and he may be, but you'll rarely find him alone. Rich or poor, great or small, deep or shallow, he is the life of the party. He may put his mind on the woes of humanity, solve their problems, give his life for theirs in a figurative or literal sense. Or he may fritter away his time in pool halls. But he will always be where there are people, in the flesh or in theory. His best expression comes when he has hitched his wagon to a star of social work or one of the social professions: invention, medicine, law, politics, architecture, literature, science, music or art with some social application. His worst expression is going places and doing things to no purpose. Some prime examples of wasted talents come in this sign - as well as some of the greatest martyrs and benefactors of the human race. Aquarius is generally misunderstood even when he has achieved greatness-and always thinks he is misunderstood when he is wasting himself. In love, Aquarius is noble but not necessarily conventional; loyal, if not faithful; affectionate, if independent, and resentful of intrusion on his private studies, which may irk the spouse because they never seem to produce anything except big electric light bills. Aquarius the social or sociable can be anything or nothing, but the one thing he will almost never be is lonesome. He may think his spirit yearns for understanding, but he will never be far from someone to listen while he attempts to explain himself. Following are the aspects to your Sun. In a general way, the trines and sextiles to your Sun make ease, contentment, happiness, luck; while squares and oppositions give you energy, drive, success, ambition. Conjunctions bring both energy and luck, and are translatable in terms of whether the Sun receives squares or trines, along with the conjunction. Similarly, squares and trines to the Sun together bring success through work and perseverance, and luck develops in proportion to the work done and the effort extended. Sun Conjunct Venus Orb: 03°42' You are popular, a favorite with the other sex, with a robust magnetism and fire to your personality that comes from high good spirits, and a sort of all-pervading optimism and good fellowship. In a woman's horoscope this will give you more than your share of admirers, and they will have good financial and social backgrounds; girls with this position generally marry above their station without sacrificing love. Women under this aspect frequently trip to the altar with the boss or his son. In a man's horoscope you are a favorite with women, lucky in love and in other things too; loyal, devoted, and ardent, the prototype of the Great Lover. Idealism lends a curious glamour to your appearance, for you are easy to look at, and your idealism sticks out all over you, throwing a kind of magnetic aura around you. It's sex appeal but also something more idealistic than that - the appeal of a Janet Gaynor rather than of a Mae West. You love nice things and have an exquisite, as well as a lavish, taste. In both emotional and material matters this is a highly intensifying influence and will heighten and tend to improve any other aspects to the Sun or to Venus. Horoscope of Birth Page 6 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Sun Conjunct Mars Orb: 09°02' Little boys and girls with this aspect are generally known as "fresh kids" and more likely than not they never get over it. You are marked by a certain audacity - you speak out your mind at the drop of a hat - and not very tactfully either. You don't know the meaning of the word fear, either in a physical or a mental sense. You will attack a roaring lion bare-handed, or endeavor to debate a legal point with a Supreme Court justice - all with the same aggressive assurance in your own ability. This is admirable, but it isn't always good sense. You come in for a good many trimmings both verbal and otherwise, through an unwise selection of opponents, and throughout life you have to be careful of trying to push over stone walls with your head. You're the kid who wouldn't holler Uncle no matter how your arm was being twisted.With Sun square Jupiter these traits are emphasized dangerously so that quarrels and enmities beset you. With Mercury conjunct Saturn the dangers of your aggressiveness are much moderated, and self-confidence and courage bring success through your own efforts. In any case, you will have to curb aggressiveness which can range from mere cockiness to downright ego mania. You have abundant energies both mental and physical. It is too bad if your abilities are lost through antagonism, or your powers dissipated in temper. Self-control should be your constant aim in both personal and business matters and you should remember when you are tempted to do or say something bold that "fools rush in where angels fear to tread." Your vigorous personality and quick mind will carry you far when you have learned to overcome the quirks of your own nature. In a woman's horoscope this generally brings trouble through men. If you marry a girl with this aspect prepare to let her rule the roost. Sun Square Jupiter Orb: 01°08' You are full of vitality, good spirits, and fun. You are likely to waste - your energies and your money in having a good time, for this is a happy-go-lucky position and adds a lift and verve even to a pretty sober nature. It generally accompanies comfortable worldly status and keeps bringing in the shekels, even if you manage to get rid of them pretty quickly. You have a great deal of pride. Social prestige is important to you and you feed your vanity on it. You are still genial and humane and will gladly help people in distress, for a goodly amount of charity accompanies this aspect. You love food and drink and tend to overindulge. You are lavish with your expenditures not only of money, but of affection, passion, friendship; an all-pervasive expansiveness runs through your life. This is a sort of Falstaffian position. You're markedly convivial, the best of companions, but through flaunting the precepts of moderation, you can cause yourself a good deal of unhappiness, ruin your digestion, and get fat. Excesses are very dangerous and in addition to crippling your fortunes, will have an effect on your health through blood disorders, gout, diabetes, or one of the ailments that goes with excess. Moon While the Sun's position by sign determines what motives and urges dominate your life as it meets the naked eye, the sign position of the Moon tells the desire of your heart which may or may not be expressed or realized in your life. When you "know what you mean but you can't say it," it is your Moon that knows it and your Sun that can't say it. "Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears" are the thoughts of your Moon's nature. The wordless ecstasy, the mute sorrow, the secret dream, the esoteric picture of yourself that you can't get across to the world, or which the world Horoscope of Birth Page 7 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake doesn't comprehend or value - these are the products of the Moon in your horoscope. When you are misunderstood, it is your Moon nature, expressed imperfectly through the Sun sign, that you feel is betrayed. When you know what you ought to do, but can't find the right way to do it, it is your Moon that knows and your Sun that refuses to react in harmony. Also, when you "don't know why I said that," it was your Moon expressing despite your Sun (if you are innerly satisfied with the involuntary speech), or the Sun expressing against the will of the Moon (if you are displeased with what has slipped out). Things you know without thought - intuitions, hunches, instincts - are the products of the Moon. Modes of expression that you feel are truly your deepest self belong to the Moon: art, letters, creative work of any kind; sometimes love; sometimes business. Whatever you feel is most deeply yourself, whether or not you are able to do anything about it in the outer world, is the product of your Moon and of the sign your Moon occupies at birth. Moon in Libra This is a Cinderella position, for no matter what humble hearth you may slave over, the vision of yourself as you see it is one of elegance, grace and refinement. So strong is this vision, so eager are you to make it a reality, and so genuine is the aristocracy of your spirit that more likely than not the fairy godmother (who is no more than the angel of your own graces) actually appears to carry you to the heights you dream of. You are one of nature's gentlefolk, and the privileged picture of yourself that you carry in your heart finds its expression in courtesy, graciousness and kindness to everyone. You should never forget your best dream of yourself, or allow the true kindliness and gentleness of your nature to be balked by a blustering exterior. Dare to be true should be your motto. Your courage should be the courage of sympathy and understanding, which you have in such great abundance. Be no more and no less than your heart tells you to be: your instincts are sound, especially in the realm of human relations, and since your special genius lies in this realm, you should follow your instincts unfalteringly. This position gives a peculiar elusive sweetness to the nature, a curious charm to the speech and manner, and allows the best of the inner self to shine before the world, which is brightened and made happier by it. It strengthens the chart of a woman by giving elegance to the expression of the feminine graces; and, in a man, adds depth, strength and character to his masculinity if he is not ashamed to admit to the gentler qualities he possesses. Following are the aspects to your Moon. Look to the trines and sextiles to give you charm and clear-thinking; and to the squares and oppositions to provide you with concentration and driving force. Moon Trine Sun Orb: 05°50' This adds an element of luck to the life and will tend to strengthen any good, or minimize any evil, that may be indicated by the rest of the chart. It inclines to a strong, sound body and an ability to take the ups and downs of the world in your stride. While it will not negate in any large degree the difficulties of the powerful aspects, it will cushion the blow, give you internal resilience and external poise, as well as an elastic power to bounce back to normal from any personal or economic difficulty. Horoscope of Birth Page 8 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Moon Trine Venus Orb: 02°08' You are gracious and no doubt easy to look at. If you are a woman you are probably a social leader; if a man, a favorite with the social leaders. You probably were born to a good social status - or if not, you are a lucky child who rises far above your original social level. It is one of the positions for material luck and always keeps you from the worst degrees of want. You can make a little go a long way if you have to, but if you don't have to, your patrician taste can prove expensive in matters of dress, house furnishings, and personal adornments. You wouldn't live in a shabby place, and even when times are hard, would have a home of grace, charm, and (somehow) of luxury. It is one of the indexes of a happy marriage, and even if other indications are unfavorable, this will in some degree give happiness in the married state. In a male horoscope, gives a beautiful and talented wife; in a female horoscope, gives thes qualities to the native herself. Moon Square Uranus Orb: 05°12' You have had a high temper in your day, and if you've controlled it the credit goes to your good sense. You are rebellious, headstrong, abrupt in speech, quick on the draw - a sort of hair-trigger personality, full of fire and dash that need the control of a vigorous intellect. A sort of perpetual confusion hangs over you, and you have a hard time getting the straight of your own nature. This is one of the marks of the advanced thinker, the Bohemian who is a law unto himself and must make a conscious effort to get in line with society. You are on the side of the underdog, the downtrodden, the underprivileged and believe in some form of social control where inequalities may be ironed out. A great individualist, you none the less believe that society has duties to is members, that their individuality may be able to thrive the better. You are ardent in your loves, idealistic and impulsive and capable of deep loyalties through which, however, you can see the faults of the beloved - and say so in no uncertain terms. Tact is something you have to learn, for your uncompromising truthfulness and honesty make tact seem wasted time to you. You are sensitive of the feelings of others, and once your high-spiritedness is reined you are the most sympathetic and understanding of friends. Moon Square Neptune Orb: 03°24' This impairs the creative gifts, and your manner of thought and expression, intruding an unrealistic note into your notions and confusing practical issue with hazy and misty generalizations. In business, thought, romance, you have to keep your feet on the ground, for you love the clouds. You are capable of daydreaming by the hour and of concocting brave plans that would be marvelous - if you or anyone else could make them happen. This adds a sort of naive charm to your nature. You can believe in fairies, Santa Claus and ghosts, just as others can believe in Herbert Hoover, and your perpetual love for the mystic will intrigue those who love the innocent, the childish, the unspoiled. But all this doesn't help you much in the world of affairs, and an impractical approach to many things will stand in the way of your progress until such a time as you get your feet on the ground and hitch your wagon to a fence post. Mercury Mercury is the sense-impression antennae of your horoscope. His position by sign indicates Horoscope of Birth Page 9 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake your reactions to sights, sounds, odors, tastes and touch impressions, affording a key to the attitude you have toward the physical world around you. Mercury is the messenger through which your physical body and brain (the Sun) and your inner nature (the Moon) are kept in contact with the outer world, which will appear to you according to the index of Mercury's position by sign in the horoscope. Mercury in Pisces Your sensitiveness to impressions from the outer world is conditioned by the use they can be to you personally. You see, hear, feel and taste what you want to. If you want to like a pie (because someone you love made it for you), it will actually taste to you like the best pie in the world. If you want to dislike a drawing (because someone you dislike drew it), it will look hideous to you. Your approach to things is far from scientific; you have to struggle to exercise an objective judgment - to see anything for its own sake, without the intrusion of some personal irrelevancy that alters your vision and therefore your judgment. If your best friend has the voice of a screech owl, you'll think it music; and if your worst enemy were a Caruso, you'd actually believe he was singing off key. Depersonalization of the approach to life is what you need to study, if you are to see the world as it is and not see always in it a reflection of yourself. You probably think you are the fairest-minded person in the world, and may be as far as abstract justice is concerned. But in what reaches you through your senses, beware of the intrusion of personal biases. Let a spade be a spade. Even if it is digging your own grave, you can't make it into a screwdriver by wishing you didn't have to die! Mercury Conjunct Saturn Orb: 00°19' You have a deep, precise, and above all serious mental outlook, ranging from the profound to the melancholy but never frivolous or light. Knowledge is sacred to you. The Law is the Law. You stick by the Code as you understand it. You are an impressive speaker and logician, whether you're fighting on the side of the angels or against them. A certain power and authority, amounting almost to pompousness, attaches to your manner of speech. You don't merely say things, you state them; and this has its effect on your listeners, who will have to have strong wills not to fall in line with your subtle reasoning. You can outguess most people, and, being suspicious, are rarely fooled. You have it in you to bamboozle the world. Nobody is ever going to sell you any gold bricks or phony oil stock. Mercury Square Pluto Orb: 02°15' You tend to be dogmatic, stubbornly resisting change and other people's ideas. In your early years, you may have rebelled against the discipline of learning; now, you may consider yourself slow or stupid, when your only problems are a lack of openness to new ideas and a lack of concentration. Once you apply your mind to the subjects that are important to you, you can become a self-made person. You should think before you speak, since you can put people off with an unintentional brusqueness. Intentional sharpness or sarcasm when angry can lose you the support you've worked hard to gain. Be as sensitive to other people's feelings as you are to your own. One of the major lessons you must learn is how to accept constructive criticism. Horoscope of Birth Page 10 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Venus Venus is the emotional antenna of your horoscope. Through Venus, impressions come to you from the outer world because of which you feel and react emotionally. The position of Venus by sign at the time of your birth gives the key to your attitude toward these emotional experiences. As Mercury is the messenger linking sense impressions (sight, smell, etc.) to the basic nature of your Sun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same sign with your Sun; emotions gain importance in your life, having a direct bearing on your actions and generally causing you to put your best foot forward. Venus in Aquarius Your emotional responses are frank and heartfelt, even when they are directed toward generalizations and groups, as they often are, or toward art in some form. Your emotions serve your aesthetic sense; you are capable of a detached and spiritual form of personal love which you relate to beauty rather than to passion. You worship beauty concretely and in the abstract; and can want nothing more than to look upon the beautiful face of your beloved (who must have a beautiful face) or upon a beautiful body, which you want to do without fear of being betrayed or thought immodest. You are sensuous, but not sensual; your emotions feed on the stimuli of eye, ear and the olfactory senses; less on touch. You belong to the perpetually pure of heart, and because of this your emotional responses to individuals are high-minded and beautiful in the extreme, and can be transmuted into the pure gold of universalized love by the alchemy of your spiritual strength. Venus Square Jupiter Orb: 02°34' You have an expansive emotional nature; what you lack in intensity you make up in variety. You are extravagant, with both your affections and your finances. You aren't a good manager of funds and spend freely for love or for pleasure. If you are a man gold-diggers find you easy prey; and if you are a woman your vanity proves expensive. This is a somewhat idealistic position, heightening the love-nature and giving you a curious sort of ideology with respect to love. Mars Mars is the energy principle in the horoscope. His position by sign indicates the channels into which energy will naturally flow, and the uses to which energy will most easily be directed. It is the planet through which the activities of the Sun and the desires of the Moon express in action - through which your body and your mind react to the sense impressions of Mercury and the emotional impressions of Venus. Mars is in the same sign as your Sun, this gives abundant energy, sometimes misdirected in temper, temperament and quarrels. Mars is in the same sign with your Venus, Mars quickens emotional reactions and causes you to act on them; it makes for ardor and passion in love, and a general earthly awareness of emotional realities. Mars in Aquarius Your energies flow into social channels which may be quite idealistic or quite personal. The more idealistic you can make them, the more you can prevent the social urges from becoming Horoscope of Birth Page 11 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake centered in yourself, the greater will be your success and happiness. There is a constant struggle within you between self and others; you are a pretty high-strung person. To translate your energies away from nerves and into channels of material and social progress is to achieve the best that this position has to offer. You have constantly to fight a curious trend toward introversion, for as indicated by all the positions of Mars in the fixed signs, you may become set in your ways and your desires, and must therefore see to it that your desires reside primarily outside yourself, in the world of material affairs. If you run into difficulties with the world - and you often do, one way or another - you will tend to feel sorry for yourself, and perhaps to console yourself in ways that block your progress. Genuine humanitarianism is your best role; whether you are in business, a profession or the arts, gear your energies to thoughts of others, and rest assured that the benefits of your efforts will thus come back to you, like bread cast on the waters. Mars Conjunct Uranus Orb: 09°57' You have a strong personality and are a little cold and impersonal. You are mental rather than emotional in your bias toward life; capable, and quick in your perceptions. You are best when working in impersonal matters for your emotions are inaccurate and unreliable and (as the palmists say) you should let the head rule the heart. This makes good leaders, teachers, and government officials. Personal considerations don't interfere with what you have to do. You can be hard and even cruel if it suits your purposes. While you can be kind in theory and to groups, you are capable of being unkind in personal dealings and of hurting those who love you. A sort of rigidity pervades your emotions, and you have difficulty in unbending. There is something a little forbidding about you. You have a periodically high temper. Health is a problem. Mars Sextile Pluto Orb: 05°32' You work like a detective or researcher, taking an idea or project and pursuing it until your understanding has penetrated to its core. You may not react quickly and there are times when you don't act at all; what is important to you is effectiveness and efficiency. If anyone can find the shortest distance between two points, it is you. This isn't an index of laziness; it is a measure of your desire not to waste time, energy or resources. Jupiter Jupiter is the feeler you have out in the world for opportunity. Through it the chances of a lifetime are passed along for consideration according to the basic nature of Sun and Moon. Jupiter's sign position indicates the places in which you will look for opportunity, the uses to which you wish to put it, and the capacity you have to react to and profit by it. Jupiter is ordinarily, and erroneously, called the Planet of Luck. It is "luck" in so far as it is the index of opportunity; but your luck depends less on what comes to you (Jupiter) than on what you do with it (the total personality). Opportunity appeals to you along lines laid down by your Jupiter. Jupiter in Scorpio You relate opportunity to deep personal needs, and are generally successful because there is no inharmony between the inner nature and what the outer world makes important. The lens of the Horoscope of Birth Page 12 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake spirit eliminates what would make unhappiness and follows instinctively what satisfies. This is a good position for acquiring and spending money; you give a sort of magical effect of being the right man (or woman) for the job that is open, if the job happens to appeal to you; and you proceed to make it your own in a curiously effective way. All the primary instincts merge in your approach to work and give you a high degree of efficiency. When you're where you want to be, you work easily, authoritatively, gaining the respect of superiors and subordinates. Opportunity flows to you naturally; and an inherent wisdom enables you to select your right niche. You're not likely to be a square peg in a round hole; and you are very likely to be successful in whatever you put your mind on. Jupiter Sextile Uranus Orb: 09°54' This is merely a contributing aspect and has little force of its own. It adds stability to the character and in some degree to the fortunes, giving an element of luck to the economic status and broadening the outlook. If creative power is shown, this will give it great breadth, scope, and social humanitarian appeal. If a business career is indicated, this builds the fortunes and makes beloved executives and managers. If public life, this tinges the purpose with a broad social outlook that may reach the constructively radical. Jupiter Sextile Neptune Orb: 08°06' This adds to the spiritual insight, increasing any latent intuitive faculties and enabling you to give practical application to your hunches. Aids creative artists by adding charm and facility to their expression and by making it salable. Helps business men by enabling them to follow their hunches to good advantage. Aids all those who deal with people (professional men, politicians) by adding a peculiar magnetism to the personality and making them appear jovial, humanitarian, and charitable. Saturn Saturn indicates the direction that will be taken in life by the self-preservative principle which, in its highest manifestation, ceases to be purely defensive and becomes ambitious and aspirational. Your defense, or attack, against the world is shown by the sign position of Saturn in the horoscope of birth. Saturn is in the same sign with your Mercury, you have profound and serious reaction to sense impressions; this position generally accompanies a deep and efficient mind. Saturn in Pisces This position causes you to seek vindication within yourself. Your struggle with the world is the inner struggle between the good and the bad within you; and you are capable of being content with self-approval when you have mastered yourself. If from this point introspection goes deeper, you realize that self approval is not enough, and require that self-approval shall be further served by the approval of others. Your defense against the hardships of life (and life does seem hard to you) lies not in open struggle with it, but in struggle within yourself to make life seem less difficult. This in its worst form results in introversion, withdrawal, brooding, giving up the struggle, and holing up alone to feel sorry for yourself. In its middle form, you fight off the lethargy and the withdrawal Horoscope of Birth Page 13 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake and find the key to your problem within yourself. In its advanced and best form, you improve your doleful outlook, redirect your energies outward, discover your virtues and your abilities, end make complete self approval wait till you have won some objective testimony of your worth. This is a difficult position, but being flexible, gives great inner strength. You are moody and tend to fluctuate from heights of being pleased with yourself and the world to depths in which you and everything else is at sixes and sevens. Your reaction to experience is almost wholly subjective: sunshine is shadow if you're feeling bad; and clouds are harbingers of joy if you're feeling good. You are one of the people who thinks a rainstorm was sent solely to destroy your outing, and who rebels personally against the weather. In acute form this leads on to delusions of persecution or some minor neurosis. But your capacity for knowing yourself is great, and once you have learned the trick of self-analysis, you can lead your temperament into creative and constructive channels to become one of the most useful members of society. Saturn Square Pluto Orb: 02°34' You may feel that the burdens of the world rest on your weary and fragile shoulders. With this pessimistic attitude, you can identify opportunities as obstacles and thus exaggerate the slightly troublesome things that do happen to you. This view restricts your ability to achieve your ambitions. A refusal to accept responsibilities works against long-range happiness and success. For a winning attitude, try to see that everyone has obligations to live up to, not just you. Also, learn to work more willingly with other people. Uranus Uranus in a general way relates to the neuro-mentality, creative originality or individuality, and his position by sign in the horoscope tells the direction along which you will seek to express your most characteristic self in creative and original effort. Uranus in Capricorn Capricorn is the so-called World sign and it is natural that the genius Uranus therein should produce a generation that would upset old traditions. With this position, you are likely to feel that you are giving expression to your truest genius in rebellion against things as they are, or as they were, for you still remember the revolt against conventions that occupied your youth, when to be part of the general iconoclasm of the day was considered personally daring. Mass individualism is the product of Uranus in Capricorn. To progress from the conventional unconventionality to truly finding yourself and your individual expression has been quite a task. When you find it, you will discover that your great contribution must be along lines of social progress, probably quite conservative in aim, even if unusual in method. You seek not to destroy the law and the prophets, but to fulfill them with all the vigor and individualism. Uranus Conjunct Neptune Orb: 01°47' Children born with this conjunction are natural mind readers, and they also seem to know what will happen. It is difficult to give them a surprise birthday party, as they somehow know that something is up. It is important to support the development of these powers, as they can languish Horoscope of Birth Page 14 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake and cause trouble if misunderstood. Travel is a given with this aspect. Uranus Sextile Pluto Orb: 04°25' You are a non-conformist, but you don't feel the need to force others to follow your life style. Your original approach helps you to get more from life than more timid souls, but you may have to cultivate a more constructive outlet for your energies than you naturally have. Some energizing factor within the horoscope - squares in general but, more importantly, squares from Mars - will be needed if you are to actualize your creative potential. Otherwise, you are too likely to coast through with what comes easiest for you. Neptune Neptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality, indicating what you take deeply for granted in life. Neptune in Capricorn This combination resembles footprints in the sand: visible until the tide washes the beach clean. Strong intuition in business matters, even real genius, is qualified by possible miserliness and a penchant for fuzzy-headed schemes (the motives of which are always mixed). A barrage of leveraged buy-outs has sent the corporate world into a dither, and there is generally an attraction to conspiring against institution, fraudulently if necessary. There is heightened perception of opportunity, and the wherewithal to take advantage of it. Neptune always has a strong Pisces side, regardless what sign it is in, and connotes integration of the life function, a translation of consciousness from what is possible to what is real. Pisces is also the sign of boundaries. All too easily, with Neptune in Capricorn, you lose yourself in pursuit of opportunity. There is a nagging warning not to sell out or bargain with alien needs. You evince a subtle martyrdom to mass prerogatives. Too easily you may be tempted by peers to veer from your course. Neptune in Capricorn warns against a lack of self determination which challenges all people embarked on the quest of self-knowledge. Be careful you don't end up with agendas and priorities you don't understand, much less can't execute. Regularly assess the nature of your needs. To what extent have you taken on dependencies or distasteful customs, having let your convictions be manipulated by the forces of "a foolish consistency"? Do not confuse usefulness with bondage or enslavement. Neptune in Capricorn is characteristically revealed in drugs, both trafficking and addiction, small and large scale. Being out of touch with the Self fuels a need to anesthetize pain. You compare yourself to others: athletes who think they cannot compete without steroids, teachers who loath learning because they cannot admit any capacity for error. There is a battle of learning versus suppression. Consider the People's insurrections against repressive government throughout the world in 1989, most successfully in Europe, harrowingly in China and Tiananmen Square, dramatically in Romania with the execution of Nicolai Ceausescu. And consider the flip side of Neptune in Capricorn relative to these events: entrepreneurs buying up the tumbled Berlin Wall and selling it as souvenirs at $10/pound in retail stores (complete with certificate of departure). There were face offs between the ruthless: pragmatism and ambition of narrow-visioned political entities and every individual's genuine need and right for freedom. The Chinese students became Neptune Horoscope of Birth Page 15 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake in Capricorn martyrs by throwing themselves at a cause with such conviction and passion. Ask yourself if there are any people whom you permit rulership, anyone who justifies atrocities with a pretense of inalienability - for world events occur in microcosmic form within individuals. Neptune in Capricorn supports the survival of the clever and ambitious, and where it might seem that compassion would mitigate such Darwinian mechanics, beware how quickly kindness is diffused by the paralyzing loneliness which results from seeking salvation in otherness. Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 06°12' The ideas that were instilled in you by your parents, church and society will undergo changes throughout your life until your religious and philosophical views are distinctly your own. This type of creative adaptability makes you able to forgo selfish concerns and direct your efforts toward the betterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible. Pluto Pluto relates to the ability to let go of things, to get rid of irrelevant prejudices and outdated habit patterns. It relates to subconscious feelings, inner urges and repressed emotions. A strong Pluto gives the ability to see the hidden side of life, and thus bestows power on the native - power which can be used for good or ill. In the same sign as Jupiter, Pluto produces an inquisitive nature with a desire to understand the hidden side of life. Pluto in Scorpio Astrologers have assigned Pluto's rulership to Scorpio, and while opinions occasionally differ, notably Carl Payne Tobey's that Pluto rules Aries, the symbolic meanings of Pluto and Scorpio do have much in common. Pluto travels its fastest in Scorpio, spending only 12 years in that sign, where it spends up to thirty years in the other signs. The Planet Earth experienced Perihelion between the Sun and Pluto in September of 1989, or its closest contact to that Planet, during which time Pluto actually orbited inside of Neptune for a while. Here we have felt Pluto at its strongest. This is a convincing argument in itself that Pluto rules Scorpio. Sexual matters are the main manifestation of Pluto in Scorpio. There has been an alarming spread of the AIDS virus. Questions arise and demand consideration about what constitutes safe, responsible sex. Free mores of the '60s and '70s have revealed a need to concern ourselves with the implications of what we still welcome as more open attitudes about sex. Sexual violence and rape have also come to the fore. Hardly a day goes by when there's not some story, great or small, in the newspaper. Pluto in Scorpio challenges people to deal with tension in productive ways. Unfortunately, perpetrators of physical violation find their outlet through aggressive outbursts. Pluto in Scorpio also calls self- esteem into question, with a general helplessness the result. Defenses are down all around. Pluto in Scorpio also has a dramatic impact on religion. Notice the number of cases of sexual abuse within the church. Also notice, on a more positive note, people's increasing interest in discovering the common thread in their fellow human beings and nurturing it for the better rather than, like their ancestors, using it for a noose. We are challenged to be more responsible toward the welfare of each other without loosing our respect for ourselves. A mixture of directness and Horoscope of Birth Page 16 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake compassion is the subtle key. It is an alchemical process, whereby we find the right proportion of allegiance and maverickness, producing wisdom. Horoscope of Birth Page 17 Current Transits The current transits are calculated exactly for the date shown. Lewi wrote text only for the aspects that he considered to be the most significant and only those are shown in this report. The dates shown only represent the times when the aspect is exact; its influence is felt for weeks, months, and sometimes even years around this time. A planet will often make the same aspect several times in one year before it leaves that area of the zodiac and moves on. This is due to the planet appearing to go backward or retrograde for a period of time and crossing and recrossing the aspect point. When this happens the effect of the aspect can be spread out over a considerable time and in this report the aspect and text will be printed for each time it becomes exact, although this series of aspects represents only one pass through this phase of its cycle. Remember that each transiting aspect is part of its over-all cycle and indicates a change of direction as well as an event. The cycle for a planet is the time it takes that planet to travel the entire 360° of the zodiac, beginning at the point where the planet is found at birth (the conjunction point), moving to the 90° point which Lewi calls the "lower square", then moving to the opposition or 180° point. Then it begins to move back towards the starting point, at the 270° point, or 90° away from the starting point, the planet is at its "upper square", and then it returns to the conjunction point where a new cycle is begun. Lewi will occasionally refer to these points in his text by name. In general all transits, whether of a planet to its own place or of one planet to another, mark cycles of growth beginning at the conjunction point, growing through the first square, fully grown at the opposition point, beginning to recede at the second or upper square, and finally starting a new cycle as it reaches the conjunction point again. How long any aspect will be in effect is determined by the speed of the planet making the aspect (the first planet , i.e. Mars in Mars Opposite Sun). One Mars cycle is about two or two and one-half years and so a Mars aspect will last about 20 to 30 days. Jupiter takes about 12 years for its cycle and so its aspects could last around 4 months, while Saturn with a 29 year cycle will last 9 months or even more if it turns retrograde. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all long range aspects and usually represent a time of 2 or more years. While Saturn and the outer planets indicate long range influences in your life, Mars aspects will identify important months and Jupiter will identify important years. Not every occurrence of these will be of striking importance. But within a larger Saturn cycle or Uranus period of great importance, these briefer influences will be found to act as the second or minute hand of the clock of destiny, as Saturn, or Uranus, or both, act as the hour hand. Feb 1, 2014 - Mars Square Uranus This transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But at one of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace and Current Transits Page 18 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake direction of the life - is likely to occur. The individuality is suddenly awakened to broader horizons, greater worlds to conquer, and determined to shake off the shackles of restraint. In undisciplined persons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacks due to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of these periods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable and probably nothing to be proud of. Mar 27, 2014 - Mars Square Uranus This transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But at one of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace and direction of the life - is likely to occur.

In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of these periods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable and probably nothing to be proud of. Apr 10, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Moon The urge to express yourself induces you to express your most temperamental self. In emotional people this marks, as it recurs every two years, some tension and inner turmoil directly related to the inner self that they are trying to express in the world. It leads to strife, unconventionality, inner discord which transfers itself to the outer world. It is an excellent time for a vacation or for lying low and forcing no issues. Frequently the transit marks ill health for yourself or your mate. The best result of this transit is awakened and increased self-knowledge. One of these periods in the life check-up will frequently mark a major emotional experience that you have never forgotten. The inner nature is brought rudely into contact with realities, and false notions are stripped away, frequently with great personal upheaval. May 20, 2014 - Jupiter Square Moon These are periods of physical and mental excess, generally resulting in fatigue and a necessity to take time off and rest. Self-indulgence wears you out and requires a holiday. This is a good time for a vacation. If you can afford to relax (and you really can't afford not to), you can enjoy life here. Be careful of excesses with money and emotions, protect your diet. The pleasures of food and drink are very alluring and make plenty of trouble if indulged in. Jun 30, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Moon The urge to express yourself induces you to express your most temperamental self. In emotional people this marks, as it recurs every two years, some tension and inner turmoil directly related to the inner self that they are trying to express in the world. It leads to strife, unconventionality, inner discord which transfers itself to the outer world. It is an excellent time for a vacation or for lying low and forcing no issues. Frequently the transit marks ill health for yourself or your mate. The worst of the ego nature comes out; all the complexes and suppressed desires rush to the surface and need to be put back in their place. The best result of this transit is awakened and increased Current Transits Page 19 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake self-knowledge. One of these periods in the life check-up will frequently mark a major emotional experience that you have never forgotten. The inner nature is brought rudely into contact with realities, and false notions are stripped away, frequently with great personal upheaval. Jul 12, 2014 - Mars Square Uranus This transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But at one of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace and direction of the life - is likely to occur. The individuality is suddenly awakened to broader horizons, greater worlds to conquer, and determined to shake off the shackles of restraint. In undisciplined persons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacks due to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of these periods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable and probably nothing to be proud of. Aug 1, 2014 - Mars Square Mars This transit indicates a period of hard work and abundant energies, which causes no trouble unless major disruptive influences are in force. There is a slight tendency to talk too much, boast and be arrogant, but the swiftness of the pace generally carries you through without major trouble. Look ahead, work toward and plan for some major development to take place coincident with the conjunction of the transiting Mars with your birth Mars which will occur around Dec 9, 2014. Frequently this transit marks the busy start of something that matures at the next Mars conjunction to Mars and should be viewed with that in mind. Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rule the emotions. Aug 16, 2014 - Mars Square Sun Domestic matters are important. This transit frequently times a move from one house (or town or locality) to another, or some important decision in the private life. New starts work out if well considered and unmotivated by temperament. Social activity is increased; you have lots of friends around you. This is a good time to begin new ventures for quick completion, ventures which have a bearing on your longer-range plans. This is a good time to clean house, redecorate, etc. The home is likely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead of figurative and quarrelsome. Aug 18, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Jupiter Opportunities abound, and your energies are up to them. Optimism runs high, and you can be made to color, and perhaps prophesy, the life for a long time. Work is abundant and gratifying; you are popular and lucky. Be careful not to waste opportunities through trying to do too much at once; don't spend too much money, either, but make a point of saving. This ought to be a period of good income, which tends to make you openhanded and generous, perhaps to a fault. Keep your eyes and ears open; some of the best forward pushes of your life will come in these periods when circumstances combine to give you the rewards of work done in the past and to open up new doors for the future. Current Transits Page 20 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Aug 23, 2014 - Mars Square Venus Social and romantic glamour leads to excesses, sometimes to strife, quarrels, separations. Minor loves and friendships break up, but important relations are merely strained; and indeed this frequently adds glamour to a deep love, intensifying its beauty. A break here, unless contributed to by some more important transit, is a sure index that the feeling wasn't very deep or important anyway. Avoid excess spending and stay away from temptation if you're interested in sticking to the conventions. Sep 10, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks. Care should be taken to secure your holding, protect your possessions and yourself, for this transit includes some vulnerability to the principle of redistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emerge from this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events as keynotes of respect for structure and self-care. Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and the tendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take time to treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a more service-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, this could be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Sep 11, 2014 - Jupiter Opposite Sun New contacts, new modes of expression, new work, new energies and ambitions tax mind and health. But you overflow with vitality and optimism and can carry quite a load if you take care of your health and refuse to indulge your weaknesses. Partners or associates provide excitement, and also luck. Money may come in without much effort on your part and can go out the same way. Avoid a spending spree, which you can slip into almost before you realize it. Apparently innocent indulgences mount till they are far from innocent. Human relations are glamorous; be sure they are also sound and not built on the quick sands of temperament and sensationalism. Be ready to grasp opportunity and keep your head clear so that you won't waste the chances that crowd around you. Sep 13, 2014 - Mars Square Mercury Quick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. The quick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur about every six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lasting grudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent. Sep 17, 2014 - Jupiter Square Jupiter These periods fall halfway between Jupiter's conjunction with his own place and his opposition to it and indicate minor shifts in emphasis in your work and life plan. Opportunities may become Current Transits Page 21 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake more numerous; or, as is the case most of the time, you will simply be busy with what you are doing, and perhaps careless of money as a result. Financial status at these periods tends to remain fixed for about three years, and you should budget ahead according to the situation you find yourself in. Nov 19, 2014 - Mars Square Moon Fatigue leads to strife, so relax. There may be illness and you may lose your grip on things. Refuse to take yourself too seriously. Go to bed and rest instead of brooding; you'll avoid strife and trouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance which may or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time with this. Nov 23, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Neptune Super intuition gives you uncanny insight into motives and methods of other people, but not always into your own. Practice self-analysis. You swiftly feel your creative power, of which you can make good use. Beware sensationalism, sentimentality, self-indulgence; fight subconscious urges, suppressed desires, and make your inner ego work for you along constructive lines. This is an excellent period for creative work, for impersonal use of magnetism for business ends and aims and for social popularity. You have glamour that attracts others: be sure it attracts the right kind of people and for the right reasons. The Old Adam rears his head and may require discipline. Nov 26, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Uranus Expect temperament, haste and anxiety. Your nerves require watching. These problems can lead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) from excess speed and lack of care over details. Watch temperament. Accidents in the realm of human relations result from overemphasizing the ego and minimizing the other fellow's viewpoint. Inventiveness abounds; originality is in the saddle; but you can't get your best and truest ideas over to any good advantage, and simply make trouble if you "try too hard." Store them up for a later time when you express them better and when other people listen to you more readily. Look out for machinery, travel, electricity; avoid danger, be careful getting on and off trains and crossing streets. Dec 9, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Mars This is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideas promoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellent advantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is the time when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. You are starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the next twenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into which to direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling your oats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrent two year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments, activity and changes. Current Transits Page 22 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Dec 20, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Sun The new starts of your Mars conjunct Mars are helped greatly with this aspect; your energies work smoothly, starting with Mars conjuct Mars (Dec 9, 2014) and gaining momentum as this aspect is reached. Your danger at this time is temperament, temper, a tendency to feel your own importance too strongly and to get into trouble because of it. Also, unless you have the endurance of an ox, you will tire yourself as Mars transits your Sun, and fatigue is likely to lead to strife, breaks and separations. Translate your energies to work, activity, detached application to a job or task; and don't get touchy or allow personal reactions to interfere with efficiency. This can be a romantic period; your magnetism is high, and you are likely to get what you want if you moderate your demands and use more persuasion and less insistence than you want to. Intuitions can go wrong, and you need the balance of strict mental discipline to bring out the best of your energies. However, it is an excellent time to go after what you want, and marks periods of important decisions and moves. Dec 22, 2014 - Mars Square Jupiter This will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or through over-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is too enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck. Dec 24, 2014 - Saturn Square Mercury This aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study and thought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which work and self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no good becomes acute. Keeping your mind on things outside yourself helps. Study, reading and writing are excellent, though creativeness and originality fail you. Don't worry must be your motto; also Face the facts. Escapism leads into bad nervous tangles. This is a good aspect to have while in school or college, when opportunity for study is greatest and the "cold, cold world" is not yet a reality that you have to consider. Corning later when you're out in the "cold, cold world," it indicates a period when you can return to the student state to good advantage, putting your mind on objective fact rather than on emotional concerns. Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraint and efficiency. Dec 25, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Venus Heightened emotions make romance, which is favored if you keep it within the bounds of reason and convention. Impulsive acts, with or without a future, are frequently found in these recurrent periods. Glamour surrounds your approach to life; you are susceptible to the opposite sex and they to you. This transit frequently indicates the time of marriage within the period of a longer transit that favors it. If the era of romance is past, this indicates an active and on the whole Current Transits Page 23 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake satisfactory social period; business progress; extravagance with money; a sudden urge to go places and do things - and perhaps a chafing at the marital bit which should not be taken too seriously. Energies work through emotions and passions, which in turn work overtime and should be gently disciplined though not entirely submerged. Often, for obvious reasons, this transit indicates the conception of children, especially if it occurs while Mars is conjunct your sun or conjunct your Mars. Dec 27, 2014 - Saturn Square Saturn This lower (waxing) square comes seven years after the Saturn-Saturn conjunction and should mark a period of achievement in line with the lessons learned seven years earlier. The choices made then, if wise, have led to accomplishment; a minor cycle has been completed; and you should be moving forward smoothly toward a point of maximum attainment to be reached in about another seven years. Some shift in method - but no change in basic direction - may be indicated here. Changes, both in the material world and in thinking, are important and should be related carefully to basic goals. Some temperament needs fighting down; the personal tends to intrude over the practical and must be put firmly back in its place. Jan 9, 2015 - Mars Square Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks. Care should be taken to secure your holding, protect your possessions and yourself, for this transit includes some vulnerability to the principle of redistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emerge from this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events as keynotes of respect for structure and self-care. Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and the tendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take time to treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a more service-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, this could be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Jan 12, 2015 - Mars Conjunct Mercury Sharp wits help if you use them right, hinder if you get smart-alecky with them. Snap judgments, quick speech, sharp retorts and anger make trouble. On the other hand, keen perceptions give you the edge on others; you express yourself readily and to good effect if you keep emotions and personalities out. Sensory perceptions and powers of observation are increased. Creative powers mount; rapidity of mental processes enables you to do more than usual. Mental fatigue can result; budget time for relaxation and sleep. Any tendency to insomnia is emphasized; also to temperament, temper and self-will. This is a good time to sell, bad time to buy. Business is active, judgment shrewd. Sign no papers, don't commit yourself permanently; the picture changes too rapidly. Avoid strife, especially over trifles. Distrust intuitions; put deep trust in hard work and pure reason. Current Transits Page 24 Heaven Knows What MINumber33 Knowflake Jan 12, 2015 - Mars Conjunct Saturn This is a good time to slow down and if you don't do so voluntarily, you may be forced to do so by a cold or some other type of illness. Do your duties quietly and solidify the existing position in which you find yourself. Superiors need kid-glove handling; you may feel hampered and restrained in your work; your energies may be forced into a yoke that chafes. Be philosophical about taking what comes; passivity and acceptance rather than activity and aggression serve you best. You build good, substantial foundations, despite limitations; or else you kick over the traces and probably regret it later. You may experience colds, low vitality, fatigue, nerves, or your system may become run down. Take a rest cure if you can. If you stay well, those around you may be ill, increasing your responsibilities. Current Transits Page 25 IP: Logged | |
