PLANETS
SUN – Identity 
As centre of the Solar System, the Sun also symbolises what is central for us -
our identity. Psychologically it represents our experience of the father and
his influence or lack of influence on the building of our character and ability
to express ourselves as individuals. It also symbolises our creative drive and
need to be visible. We strive to realise the qualities the Sun represents in
our horoscope through a process of individuation throughout our life. This
self-realisation process is our highest goal. The Sign the Sun is in shows the
direction in which we strive to realise ourselves. The Sun changes sign every
month. The qualities of this sign are like adjectives which colour our
self-expression. We have to develop and perfect these qualities to truly find
ourselves. The House the Sun is in indicates the specific area in the material
world in which we manifest our identity. We will identify very strongly with
the practical issues that this House represents. Self-realisation comes through
the matters connected with the House. The Aspects to our Sun show psychological
influences on our identity which have to be integrated in some way. Aspects
indicate specific effects that modify the expression of our identity and make
us unique individuals. Aspects can also show quite precisely how we experienced
the influence of the father, and how that modifies our attempts to become
individuals.
MOON - Emotions 
The Moon represents our emotions and the need for security. It represents our
early environment and particularly the way we experienced the mother. It shows
our ability to be sensitive to the environment and to both give and receive
emotion. The Moon is related to instincts, and is profoundly connected to the
personal unconscious, and all the habitual behaviour that is looked after by
this mysterious part of ourselves. The Moon shows how we instinctively react to
protect ourselves and others. The Sign the Moon is in shows the specific way we
react, and the kind of emotional needs we have. The Moon goes through all 12
Signs in a month. The Moon sign's influence is at least as powerful as the Sun,
showing specific habitual and environmental needs as well as ingrained reaction
styles. The House the Moon is in shows the particular area in actual life to
which we become attached to increase feelings of security. This area is where
we are most vulnerable and defensive. However it is also this area where we
experience the greatest growth and show the greatest concern for others. The
Aspects to the Moon show specific emotional experiences which affect our
psychological make-up. These aspects are integrated into our emotional nature
to give specific reaction patterns and habits.
MERCURY - Mentality 
Mercury is related to our ability to communicate and desire for knowledge. It
is connected with contacts to siblings, friends and people at school. Mercury
represents our thoughts and the constant activity that goes on in our heads. It
is connected to the nervous system and physical co-ordination. The Sign Mercury
is in shows the way we communicate and the psychological areas in which our
mental talents lie. Mercury is the fastest of all planets and cleaves to the
Sun, either being in the same Sign as the Sun or one of the Signs on either
side of the Sun. The House Mercury is in shows the particular area in which our
mental talents are put to practical use. This is the area in which we realise
our need to make contact and increase our learning. Aspects to Mercury show
mental talents and communication styles in a very specific way. They indicate
our individual interests and abilities.
VENUS - Values 
Venus shows our values and our need and capacity for love. This planet shows
aesthetic preferences and the natural attraction we feel to people and things.
Venus represents the need for inner and outer harmony and balance. It is
associated with the inner feelings we have when we compare and make judgements.
Venus also represents sisters and other influential women, as well as our
experience of the emotional harmony between our parents. The Sign Venus is in
indicates how our values are coloured and what specific aesthetic styles we
adopt. Choices of partner are strongly influenced by this Sign position. Venus
is always found close to the Sun in the horoscope - either in the same sign, or
in one of the two signs alongside the Sun. The House Venus is in shows in what
particular area of life we find love, companionship and partnership, and where
we have the strongest and most rewarding emotional contacts. This House shows
what we value specifically, and where we can be enriched both emotionally and
financially. Aspects to Venus indicate specific experiences in love
relationships and the individual psychological needs that colour our judgement
when making choices.
MARS - Drives 
Mars represents drive and masculinity, as well as issues connected with
sexuality and power. It indicates the work we choose and the way we tackle it.
It is strongly associated with the experience of brothers, the father and men
in general. Where Mars is there is trouble, but also the fighting instinct to
get on in life. Mars shows challenges and the ability to meet them bravely.
Mars is connected with the muscular system. The Sign Mars is in represents the
particular psychological area in which we express our energy. Mars takes 2
years to go around the Sun, as it is in each sign for approximately 2 months.
In a woman's horoscope it represents the type of men she is attracted to, in a
man's his own attitude to men, competitiveness and masculinity. The House Mars
is in shows the specific area in which one desires to invest energy. This house
will also show where one is most dynamic, where men are encountered, and where
one is confronted with issues of power. Battles are fought in this area.
Aspects to Mars show specific attractions to men, or specific sexual
preferences. They show the way we use our energy and special talents for
particular kinds of work
JUPITER - Wisdom 
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system and has its own cosmos of
moons orbiting. It represents the drive for insight on an intellectual,
philosophical and religious level. It is said to bring great good fortune, and
its influence is to expand the effect of everything it comes into contact with.
Jupiter has to do with the law and moral authority, and our attitude to these
issues. It brings a strong desire for understanding and the tendency to have
powerful opinions and convictions. As Jupiter takes 12 years to orbit the Sun,
it spends one year in each Sign. Therefore its influence in the horoscope is
more collective than personal. The Sign Jupiter is in represents cultural
influences and social drives for expansion and improvement. The House Jupiter
is in shows where there will be good fortune and expansion in your personal life.
This House position will indicate the specific area in life in which you gain
insight and grow in understanding. This area will generally be very fortunate
for you. The aspects Jupiter makes shows a psychological identity
characteristic where the need for expansion, influence and understanding is
paramount. These aspects show the specific personal drives where the search for
wisdom is most intense.
SATURN - Self-reliance 
Saturn is the furthest planet in the solar system visible to the naked eye. As
such it represents limits. Saturn in the horoscope shows where the greatest
challenges are to be found, and the hardest lessons learned. This planet shows
where rigid systems restrict growth. It is connected with the parents,
authorities and rules. Saturn brings strength through self-limitation,
discipline and planning. As Saturn takes nearly 30 years to go around the Sun,
it will be in any one Sign over a period of about 2½ years. Saturn in a Sign
therefore represents cultural and authoritarian influences and trends in
society. It shows the influence of society on the individual, and where in
society the greatest efforts are made to build up lasting structures. Saturn's
House position shows where specifically you will experience the greatest
challenges and limitations. This is an area which will absorb much of your
time. No matter how hard you try to avoid commitment in this area, you will be
forced by circumstances to overcome your fears and become an expert in the
field indicated. Aspects to Saturn show areas of the personality where you will
feel lack of confidence. In these areas you will be shy, repressed, desperate
for recognition, frustrated. Normally you will build up self-reliance and
independence in the part of your character Saturn affects after around 30
years.
URANUS - Originality 
Uranus was first discovered in 1781 and is often associated with revolutions.
It represents the drive to be unique, to shock and to surprise. It brings
sudden and unpredictable events. Its influence is to raise personal
consciousness. It is electric and lightning-fast in its effect. As Uranus takes
84 years to go around the Sun, it will be in any one sign for 7 years -
therefore its effect is on a collective level, influencing successive
generations. Its Sign position shows in what psychological area of humanity
revolutionary changes will take place. The House Uranus is in will show in
which specific area of your life revolutionary changes take place. It shows
where you are most original, and where sudden developments will raise your
consciousness. The aspects Uranus makes show in what part of your personality
you have the greatest need to break free and act in the most unique and
individual way. These aspects indicate rather extreme character traits where
you may wish to shock others, or inspire them to change.
NEPTUNE - Transcendence 
Neptune was discovered in 1846. It has been found to represent non-material
influences like dreams and illusions. It brings dissolution of structures and
represents idealistic drives - both on a social and a spiritual level. Neptune
opens the door to the divine, leaving a residual discontentment about mundane
existence. As Neptune takes 165 years to go around the Sun, this planet will be
in any one sign for a period of about 14 years. Its influence is therefore
experienced most strongly as long-term collective changes. Neptune's sign
position shows the collective need to transcend everyday life through the
media, films and visionary ideals. The House position of Neptune shows where specifically
you will feel the need to transcend. This House area will show where dreams are
built up and dissolve and in what area of life you gain spiritual understanding
through acceptance of the transience of all things. Aspects of Neptune show
personality traits which are strongly affected by dreams and idealism. These
aspects indicate where you have unrealistic expectations and where you will
experience disappointment until you refine your nature through spiritual
insight.
PLUTO - Transformation 
Pluto was discovered in 1930 and takes 246 years to go around the Sun. Though
very small, its influence is completely disproportionate to its size. It brings
total transformations. Drawing deep psychological issues up out of the
unconsciousness it has a purging function. Its influence focuses on power and
power misuse, or feelings of alienation. Pluto has a very irregular orbit and
can be in any one Sign from 14 - here in the 20th century - to over 30 years.
Its influence in a Sign is felt more on a collective than a personal level. The
Sign position of Pluto shows in what area of society total transformations take
place - often with rather catastrophic consequences. Pluto roots out basic
imbalances, replacing corruption with something totally new. It brings a death
and rebirth process. The House position of Pluto shows in what specific area of
your life you focus too intensely and have a corrupt or fanatic drive for
intensity or control. This area shows where you have experienced trauma - at
some point in the life a total transformation will take place here. In this
area the doors to your unconscious will open. The aspects Pluto makes show the
most intense psychological drives in your personality. In these areas of your
personality you will be most magnetic and dominating. This stems from an
unconscious need for control, which in turn stems from a deep fear of being
powerless. Crises and transformation will arise in these areas.
ASCENDANT - Incarnation
The Ascendant, or 1st house cusp (ASC), is a personal point in the horoscope
which has at least as much significance as the Sun and Moon. It reflects the
degree of the zodiac sign which is rising on the Eastern horizon at the moment
of birth. This degree changes on average every four minutes, with a new sign rising
on the horizon every two hours on average. (There are 30 degrees in a sign).
Certain signs rise faster than others depending on how close one is to the
North or South Pole. In the Northern Hemisphere Aquarius, Pisces, Aries and
Taurus rise fast, and in the Southern hemisphere the opposite signs, Leo,
Virgo, Libra and Scorpio rise fast, as a result of the angle at which the Earth
revolves on its axis. The Ascendant degree varies depending on the actual place
of birth - it is specifically dependant on the latitude of birth, whereas the
Midheaven is dependant on longitude. Because the Ascendant is connected with
the rotation of the Earth on its axis - and has nothing to do with the planets
- it shows how character (planetary influence) is manifested in a practical way
on Earth. It shows the life path, or the actual role of the personality on
Earth. It is the physical manifestation of personal fate through earthly
matters. As such it is the most vital point in the horoscope, and is related to
the actual birth experience and the health of the physical body. Whereas the
Sun represents the conscious identity, and the Moon the unconscious mind, the
Ascendant represents the cast of character or persona in the grand performance
of life.
MIDHEAVEN - Destiny
The Midheaven, or 10th House cusp (MC), is designated by the highest point the
Sun reaches before it starts to go down - in other words midday - and as such
it represents the ultimate destiny of the individual in the material world. It
is the start of the 10th house, showing our career interests and potential for
getting on in the world. The MC can be considered as the crown of the tree,
with all its fruits and branches, whereas the IC (4th House cusp) can be seen
as the roots of the tree. It is a highly visible point, representing the desire
for prominence and achievement. The Midheaven is therefore connected with
success and the attainment of the ultimate goals in life.
NODES
The North Node of the Moon represents the point at which the orbit of the Moon crosses the plane of the Solar System (Ecliptic) when moving from south to north across the Ecliptic. This is an invisible point, which is first noticed at specific times of the year when eclipses occur. (The South Node is exactly opposite in the horoscope.) It is said to represent more than anything else the influence of karma - that is a predisposition to absorb oneself in a certain kind of activity. The North Node indicates the most beneficial direction for spiritual growth. It also shows in what particular area of society one needs to interact to encourage this growth. The Nodes take a little over 18 years to pass through all 12 signs, spending therefore around 1+ years in each sign. The Sign position shows the focus of change and development in society, specifically indicating the area of world development, which attracts greatest public attention. In your horoscope this Sign position will show psychological traits you will develop in your search for spiritual growth. The House position of the North Node shows in which area of life you will invest your time and energy to attain growth, happiness and satisfaction. Often you will discover this - your life's direction - at the age of 18+ or 37. Aspects to the North Node show which personality traits help or hinder you in your drive to find and explore your spiritual direction.
The South Node of the Moon represents the point at which the orbit of the Moon crosses the plane of the Solar System (Ecliptic) when moving from north to south across the Ecliptic. This is an invisible point, which is first noticed at specific times of the year when eclipses occur. (The North Node is exactly opposite in the horoscope.) The Nodes are said to represent the influence of karma - that is a predisposition to be absorbed in specific areas of life. The South Node shows where one feels instinctively oneself to have the greatest life experience. There is a great attraction to pursue goals connected with this Node - there is an inner hunger to be satiated here - but no deep long-term satisfaction is experienced when these goals are achieved. The Nodes take a little over 18 years to pass through all 12 signs, spending therefore around 1+ years in each sign. This Sign position shows in which areas society draws historical lessons on its path towards the future. In your personal horoscope it shows outlived psychological drives, which cannot bring satisfaction. The House position of the South Node shows in which specific area of life you feel a powerful drive to fulfil old needs, or where you are attracted to old karmic patterns. You will discover that your focus on this area is misplaced, and this can lead to a change of life direction, normally no later than the age of 37. Aspects to the South Node show which personality traits keep you absorbed with old karmic patterns. They may also indicate the kind of groups you are predisposed to associate with.
