Past: reversed gyfu - gift

the gift of partnership, the give and take..reversed it means that the gift wasn't reciporated..the partnership wasn't real..i see this DE was a gift to me, he showed me what I needed to see and what I needed to see is what I really want in a relationship - the kind of man that I want in my life, in a sense he was like the prototype for the real thing, a trial and error type of period in my life.

Present: lagus - lake

sensitivity to the world around us..i'm awaking to the possiblities, also noticing more than usual..unconscious activities, dreams, the cauldron of love..i'm writing again, the flow of creativity is good..

Future: eoh - yew

lasting endurance you need to survive the ordeals of life..the guts to take the risks of life. it is a time for action, reaching out for the dream of a lifetime, go forward with a sense of purpose, your arrow will hit its mark. Hold true to your values, you'll find the dream.

Today: asa - god

job promotion, leadership, planning carefully, divine wisdom. The quest for hidden knowledge - the mysteries and hidden secrets that await within yourself. Inspiration is working through your life, perhaps in the seeking of poetic or spiritual mind-states, inner wisdom to attain freedom from illusions.  Think before you speak.....

For most of the week you will be able to make quite a bit of progress. Venus opposes Jupiter, and both are aspected by Mercury, which means that you have many opportunities to do deals, sign contracts, negotiate a good sale, and also to earn yourself plenty of extra cash. If you need to make an impression, try entertaining at home, which will work very well for you. Property deals of all kinds continue to look well starred, and with a great aspect between Mercury and Jupiter, you stand to make a good profit. If you are dating, things look quite bright for much of the week. Those you mix with may be able to help you with your job, or perhaps to give some great tips and advice. You may even fall in love with someone associated with your career, who understands the trials and traumas that you have to go through. But do take care that you don't make someone else very jealous. Venus squares Pluto on Sunday, and this could bring things to a head - you might expect a showdown of one kind or another. If you need to discuss funding, or need more credit, get in contact with the right channels early on, and you will probably be successful.

..this was a wonderful thing to see today...especially the part about the property...from what I understand and have heard..saturn passing through is the time of paying dues...jupiter is the reward for paying those dues..

Jupiter and Mercury in the section of your chart associated with your home and family, JULIE, will continue to bring you many wonderful experiences that will bring you closer to your loved ones. You may want to show how much you care by doing a few practical things for them. This they will truly appreciate. Opportunities to invest in your property, or in real estate in general, are also very present. Jupiter is in this section of your chart for roughly one year, so use this time to improve your property in a big way. With both Venus and the Sun in the section of your chart associated with fun and pleasure, and let us not forget - love affairs - you will have much to celebrate. This isn't the time to stay in and rest at home, even if fall is on its way. You are far better off to continue to meet new people and make new contacts. There is a wealth of information out there, which can help you in some very important and significant ways. But do take care when dealing with other people, as there are some powerful emotions around that could knock you off center.

If you were to think of your Sun Sign as your soul -- your inner personality and potential -- and your Moon Sign as your heart -- your emotional core -- then you could say that your Rising Sign is your physical self or the face you present to the world. See below, this explains alot about me...

My sun sign is Gemini...what this means..this is my soul, my inner personality and potential:

Gemini is the third Sign of the Zodiac, and those born under this Sign will be quick to tell you all about it. That's because they love to talk! It's not just idle chatter with these folks, either. The driving force behind a Gemini's conversation is their mind. The Gemini-born are intellectually inclined, forever probing people and places in search of information. The more information a Gemini collects, the better. Sharing that information later on with those they love is also a lot of fun, for Geminis are supremely interested in developing their relationships. Dalliances with these folks are always enjoyable, since Geminis are bright, quick-witted and the proverbial life of the party. Even though their intellectual minds can rationalize forever and a day, Geminis also have a surplus of imagination waiting to be tapped. Can a Gemini be boring? Never!   Since Geminis are a mix of the yin and the yang, they are represented perfectly by the Twins. The Gemini-born can easily see both sides of an issue, a wonderfully practical quality. Less practical is the fact that you're not sure which Twin will show up half the time. Geminis may not know who's showing up either, which can prompt others to consider them fickle and restless. They can be wishy-washy, too, changing their mood on a simple whim. It's this characteristic which readily suggests the Mutable Quality assigned to this Sign. Mutable folks are flexible and go with the flow. Further, the Twins are adaptable and dexterous and can tackle many things at once. It's a good thing, too, when you consider their myriad interests. The downside of such a curious mind, however, can be a lack of follow-through. How much can any one person do, anyway? (yep, see this..to make it even more fun..I was born on the cusp of Taurus/Gemini)

My rising sign is Cancer..what this means...this is my physical self or the face that I present to the world:

If your Rising Sign is Cancer, you could be the first shoulder everyone runs to cry on. You appear nurturing and compassionate, like you're the mother hen of your circle of friends and loved ones. Though you may not actually have the patience for it, you can expect that others will open up to you when they need a little maternal advice. On the other hand, you sometimes come across as overly emotional and manipulative. Since you seem so maternal and soothing, use this quality to comfort those who seem to need a sense of security. (i so don't see this in me..hmmm)

My moon sign is Cancer....what this means...Cancer is my emotional core

You respond very much to the emotional tone and atmosphere around you, and can be dominated by your fluctuating and unpredictable moods. You often appear irrational to others because you cannot always explain the reason or source of your feelings. Anyone who lives with you must accept your ups and downs and appreciate your need for times of withdrawal. You are also very sympathetic and understand the unspoken feelings and needs of others. You take slights and rebuffs very personally and though you may forgive a transgression by a friend or loved one, you never forget it. (yep this is me)

Sun Sign is Gemini ...

Your sign, Julie, is that of witty Gemini, the third sign of the zodiac, the sign that is characterized by communication. Geminis are very intellectual individuals, and are forever interested in broadening their horizon - they are eternal students!

Mercury, the planet of communication, rules your sign, and makes you an articulate and versatile person, Julie. You are outgoing and sociable, and due to your lively attitude, you are the born entertainer. Clever and ingenious, you usually get what you want with your charm and wit.

First of the three air signs, you are a dexterous, multifaceted, and flexible individual. As the most diverse and eloquent sign of the zodiac, you crave mental stimulation above all. Your curiosity, combined with your ability to synthesize information, makes you the messenger of knowledge and information.

As a Gemini, you rule the third house, the sector of your chart that describes how you perceive, process, and communicate facts. It also has to do with short journeys, siblings, neighbors, and anything within arms' reach.

Julie, you are a mutable sign, responsible for keeping information flowing. You are gifted in adapting to situations and making compromises. Of all the zodiac signs, you are the peacemaker and troubleshooter who actively finds solutions to tricky situations.

Your strengths, Julie, lie in your cleverness, inquisitiveness, and openness to exploring new ideas. Once you have found something that interests you, you proceed with logic and scientific precision. However, as soon as you've consumed a subject, you are also able to switch your focus to a new topic. With your naturally practical and skilled approach, you excel in whatever you put your mind to. (this explains alot about me..now I understand why i have 10 different projects going on at once)

One of your main weaknesses is that you can be shallow and hypocritical in your dealings with others. You can confuse people with your unpredictability and cynical attitude, and they might not trust you completely. Since your brain works so quickly, you tend to be nervous, restless, and anxious, which sometimes leaves you highly irritated. (very interesting..I think in general I've overcome my weakness)

Your Rising Sign is Cancer ...

Cancer Rising, you are a "lunar" personality. That is someone who is emotionally volatile, Julie, with inexplicable mood swings that seem to occur cyclically. In general, you keep a good deal of anxiety inside yourself, especially if you are in doubt about something. Even though you are sensitive, susceptible, and vulnerable on the inside, this may not be apparent because you cover yourself with a hard shell. You don't like to make waves, and you prefer to stoically endure difficult relationships, rather than taking active steps to find a resolution. You contain a deep inner life, one full of imagination and fantasy, which explains why you are attracted to the eccentric and idiosyncratic sides of other people. (all true..explains the imagination, flow of words, creativity. hard shell - definetly see that about myself)

You are a nurturing and hospitable individual, and are drawn to creating a safe place in your life, which is your home and your family. You are the kind of person who goes back to reconstruct your family tree, and rummages through the attic looking for lost memories or objects of your past. You have a strong need to protect your loved ones, showering them with love and affection. (and I thought I just liked history..hmmm)

Activities such as eating, sleeping, and sexual expression must be regular and satisfying, lest you become moody or irritable. You are loyal in romantic relationships, Julie, even overly sentimental at times, and love unreservedly. The impact you have on other people is considerable. By using your highly empathic sensibilities, you are able to subtly manipulate other people's feelings and thoughts, usually to make them feel better.

You require an audience, a group receptive to your ideas and emotions, and may feel hurt and rejected if you don't find one. But in remaining close and loyal to your true friends, you are in a unique position to connect with people, individually and in groups, in meaningful and lasting ways.


4:10:28 PM    

Character and Personality
The following paragraphs concern the study of Julie's personality, as induced by the positions of the planets and Rising sign. Some of the character traits mentioned may seem completely contradictory and incompatible. This is because the rough-hewn personality is a rarity. Usually, individuals are made up of a subtle orchestration of many different tones or aspects. However, serious introspection or detailed analysis should make it possible to distinguish the opposing or diverging images comprising Julie's overall character, and perhaps, in time, find the best and most harmonious way to integrate them.

Julie's personality is mind-oriented. She understands and relates to the world around her and herself via the medium of thought and intellect. Memorization, comparison, analysis, and the verbalization of her mental imagery are her favorite activities. She seeks to extend her personality by a mental outreach to a multitude of new ideas and factors, becoming acquainted with an ever-increasing variety of facets of human nature. Thus, language and symbolic expression, written or oral, are her primary resources in life, although they are also potential pitfalls. Her eloquence, wit, and verve, her mastery of language, unquestionably give her power over other people (via communication) and things (science and technique). But taken to extremes, this faculty may lead to incoherent babbling.
It is thus vital for Julie to find an outlet for her flow of verbal expression, she must explain, communicate, and speak. If it is dammed up, she will undoubtedly suffer. Her flow of words is the expression of her vital energy, the proof that she is alive and well. If she is forced to be silent, she would be cut off from the bonds that hold her together. A kind of duality or split personality might emerge... remember Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? " They " were a classic case. For all of the above reasons, Julie is naturally gregarious and sociable.
She makes friends quickly and easily. Her contacts and networks are important to her, because they enable her to evolve; they are a source of self-fulfillment and identification. Any form of play is also important to her, and only severe depression will deprive her of her playfulness. Finding a partner for play within herself in many cases, she sometimes amuses herself by acting out a variety of roles on the stage of life, just for the fun of it. Her animation and wit give her a talent for improvisation and adaptation. However, adaptability is a two-bladed sword. She is liable to find herself in a superficial bind, having jettisoned certain important ideas in order to move about more freely. Julie is also sensitive, but her emotions and feelings are sometimes subject to the scrutiny and censorship of her intellect. Thus, she cannot free herself to the strength of great passions and energies without idealizing them to a certain degree and giving them intellectual resonance. Wary of her irrational instincts and urges, she tends to control or repress them.

But she will have to learn that the intellect is not omnipotent, especially where instinct is concerned. Inhabiting a complex inner world, Julie sometimes feels vulnerable, due to her emotionalism and sensitivity to the aggressions of the outer world. Because she relies first and foremost on her adaptability and agility to wriggle out of trouble, she may, on certain occasions, make rather dubious compromises with herself - all the more likely if her moral fiber is made of wax, as is often the case, instead of steel. The weaknesses she must overcome are instability, wishy-washiness, a lack of determination and coherence in her thought.

Julie thrives in the peace and security of the nest. Her husband and family will be an important part of her life.

Julie has a strong personality; she is sometimes a little self-centered. Her fate is in her own hands!

At the time of Julie's birth, her Rising Sign was located in Cancer (the Crab), while the Sun was passing through the constellation of Gemini (the Twins). A summary of the various clues mentioned above provide Julie's personality profile; the following key words distill the essence of her character and indicate certain contradictions which may be sources of tension:

Sensitivity - Imagination - Eccentricity - Savings and thrift - Suspicion - Immaturity - Obstinacy - Communication - Premonition - Inner duality.

Julie possesses considerable intellectual skills, defined by acute intuition and a highly personal analytical sense. However, she may find her great sensitivity somewhat disturbing and disruptive. Her impressionability and vulnerability to her surroundings can be brought under control if she learns to ignore the flights of her prolific imagination. For her, the path to success and self-realization lies in dominating her sensitivity.

Born three-and-a-half to seven days after the rising of the New Moon, Julie is said to be a " Crescent Moon " lunar type. This " soli-lunar " configuration indicates that she may need to make an effort to free herself from the past. Something related to her childhood, her parents, or her ancestors is holding her back, impairing her effectiveness, and should be overcome. Due to her past, she refuses tried-and-true models, is always fighting to justify her innovative viewpoints, and tends to break away from tradition. She is hardly ever aware that she is making career and lifestyle choices which are based on an urge to modify her relationship to society, and the rigid standards and models from the past.

Due to the influence of the lunar dominant on her birth chart, Julie's character is strongly attached to her image of her mother. She did not (or will not) cut the umbilical cord easily, and she will always identify with her childhood memories, happy or unhappy. Her mother (or a mother figure), was probably strongly protective of her. Psychologically attached to her need for security, she is convinced that she may be overpowered by the demands of adult life. No matter how much she matures and evolves, she will never be out of contact with her inner child. She is sensitive and vulnerable, moody and somewhat easily swayed; subjective and nonchalant. Her inner psychic activity is dynamic: imagination, memory, dreams, sensations, and feelings occupy her mind.
 
Temperament
The graph below reveals the various influences on Julie's nature in relation to the percentage value of each element. These values were calculated according to the number of planets and the hierarchical position of each one (dominant, luminary, etc.). The basic personality tendencies as described here will no doubt be counteracted to some degree by the environmental, psychological, or emotional needs outlined in the next chapter. Nevertheless, they form the roots of her psyche, anchoring it as it grows and develops.

Julie's psyche follows an extroverted thrust. She attempts to embody and actualize her ideas and the archetypes she identifies with in her objective life.

Julie's tendency to introversion inclines her to live inside herself, amid her inner world. She is apt to listen to her subjectivity, her intuition, and her secret opinions rather than reason and logic.

While Julie is attracted to interpersonal activities, her significant need for inner security may stand in the way of her overtures to others. Since she is highly receptive to other people's inner natures, she seeks tight bonds with others. She unconsciously needs their psychological support in her quest for herself. Were she to evaluate her psychological development, she would place more value upon human warmth, intimacy, and the need to share than on intellectual understanding or personal freedom of expression.

Sentimental and emotional, Julie lives in a world which is in continual contact with her dreams and subconscious. She cannot live without love, and, like water which flows into and takes on the shape of the vessel which contains it, she is always ready to submerge herself in another person. Stirred by forces she does not control, she may be aroused by passions which are impervious to the restraints of reason and logic. She is an emotive creature in harmony with the flow of her feelings, impulses, and urges.

The numerous contradictions and tensions which are a recurrent feature of Julie's astral theme balance each other out and endow her with a stable, well-tempered character, after all. Indeed, they are especially likely to protect her from unsolvable frustrations and, in terms of reality, will enable her to acquire a certain social and professional success without too much effort on her part. At that point, she must be careful not to take on too many responsibilities. Her confidence in her ability to accomplish things may make her spread herself too thin.

Julie lives chiefly in the moment and expresses her energies immediately, tempered by the circumstances. Always on the move, she is unconsciously seeking a point of stability and balance which eludes her. The skills she displays as a mover and doer, as a leader, are animated by basic feelings of insecurity. As a result, at some times in her life, her ambition may overpower her emotions.

Psychological Analysis
The following psychological study is a " blind " analysis which cannot take into consideration factors proper to Julie's social background or education. Nevertheless, it describes the basic structure and dynamic of her psyche as the result of an interplay of various influences; that is, without confining it to certain categories or arbitrarily putting a label on it. Certain contradictions may appear, but they are an integral part of the paradoxes and ambivalence of her nature. It is impossible for us to predict which tendency will win out: that will depend on Julie's decision.

Consciousness and The Ideal of Self:  Julie is patient. She is fond of routine, ritual, and any other events or ceremonies which mark the passage of time and the seasons. She tries to be as pragmatic as possible, and unconsciously senses that her relationship with material things will be the best foundation for her self-development and individuation. As a result, she is attached to her possessions, and will make every effort to cling to them.

At the moment of Julie's birth, the two celestial " lights " (the Sun and the Moon) were symmetrically aligned. This is a portent of harmony between the masculine and feminine archetypes which is extremely beneficial. It is the source of balance and understanding between the two main psychological realms which may be said to compose the personality. Julie thus enjoys a positive complementarity and understanding between the conscious and unconscious aspects of her psyche, between her determination and her routines, between her drive for self-assertion and her receptivity, her ideal and her sensitivity. Her parents almost certainly reflected a positive image of the marriage relationship to her, and it is likely that they encouraged her to develop her own individuality. As a result, she was and is able to be comfortable with herself as she is instead of striving to attain her parents' ideal. This has definitely contributed to the maintenance of a good relations with them and the rest of the family. In Julie's emotional relationships with her peers, one of the effects of the masculine/feminine harmony is that the images her ego projects on the other are especially constructive. The bonds of the relationship are not felt to be constraints, the energy which flows between the two people is a source of mutual happiness, not regret. No major personal conflicts are projected onto the " other " - that is, the significant woman.

Julie has a great potential for creative, constructive accomplishments; however, it is sometimes difficult for her to gain access to this part of herself. She is confident in herself and life, but may tend to be nonchalant and lazy; she sometimes needs a little stimulation to get herself rolling and take some initiative. Her optimism and inner certainty do not always drive her to give her utmost efforts to achieve a goal. The communications skills she possesses are an advantage as well as a handicap. Although she makes use of her theatrical gifts, convincing eloquence, and ability to listen, they sometimes arouse dislike. The best careers for her would be teaching, communications, philosophy, the legal profession, theater, and public relations.

Julie enjoys sharing and has a constant need for contact with other people. She tends to be free and uninhibited in her relations with other people, rarely allowing herself to be influenced by convention or prevailing opinion; she associates with whomever she pleases. This attitude makes her life refreshing and exciting, and she is never bored. In career terms, she is quite gifted for any field related to communication, where her intellectual singularity and lively wit would make her an amazing hit. She would also be likely to succeed in any activity where the work required a multidisciplinary approach: teaching, advertising, politics, etc.

Julie is extremely sensitive and receptive, and tends to live in osmosis with her surroundings. Her individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are continually washing over her, and she sometimes finds it difficult to communicate her feelings to other people or engage in any structured, analytical thought. This may stem from a misunderstanding with her teachers when she was a child. Unable to understand their disciplinary measures or authority, she may have withdrawn into herself in self-defense. It was then that she constructed her rich inner life, the part of her they could not invade, and cut many of her ties to the outside. Because she enjoyed indulging in her inner life, it may have been difficult for her to acquire an objective vision of reality. As a result, even today, she tends to create imaginary problems for herself, regardless of the objective facts outside. Although her imagination is a source of inspiration and intuition, her fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for her to grasp the essence of her dreams and share them with other people. She is not at all combative, and this tends to hinder her efforts to fit into society and assert herself productively. She is likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but her refusal to abandon her unattainable dreams is a psychological trap she has fallen into without realizing it. She must understand that by running away from her obligations and commitments, she only increases the feelings of guilt and incompetence which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once she frees herself from this pernicious process, she has a great deal of potential for fulfilling herself in the outer world, either by devoting herself to some sort of social work or by cultivating her considerable artistic talents.

Julie generally tends to be motivated by activities which apply to social needs. She tends to give the best of herself in difficult situations which require crucial choices. Her ability to concentrate and her gift for solving problems by deductive reasoning are her chief resources in crisis situations or at turning points in her life.

Adaptation and Sensitivity: Mild and sensitive, Julie is deeply human. She is sociable and sincerely devoted to others. Her mother (or a mother-figure) had a strong influence on her psyche, and her childhood was an important time in her life. She still identifies with vivid childhood memories; they are the basis for her reveries for her extreme sensitivity, and for habits which she may be slow to break. However, she will thrive in the shelter of a family setting, soothed by the presence of a husband and children. She is fond of security and routine; being somewhat impressionable and anxious, she may have trouble adjusting to situations which are unfamiliar.

Optimistic and happy to be alive, Julie is a cheerful, expansive, pleasant associate to have. She is extremely generous (sometimes to a fault!), and gives of herself and her belongings unstintingly. This positive psychological outlook is the result of a happy childhood, and especially an extremely beneficial maternal influence in infancy. Julie is quite likely to be a professional success; her vision of the world is perfectly adapted to prevailing opinion, and her urges and desires for personal expansion usually elicit a positive reaction from society. By old age, her good reputation and prominence may have earned her some fame.

Although her demeanor is cold and distant, Julie is extremely sensitive. In some cases, her rather austere and rigid behavior and her refusal to yield too readily to sentimentality discourage others from being too demonstrative of their tenderness and affection. She has spells of melancholy in which she does not feel worthy of being loved, and tends to forbid herself any emotional fulfillment whatsoever. An austere or somewhat traumatic childhood experience may be the source of this behavior. It is difficult for her inner self to be detached from this past life, and she sometimes has trouble reconciling the image she has of herself as an adult with the one she acquired back then. The idea she has of herself as an individual is related to the image her parents projected onto her as a child. Nevertheless, the past is history, and she is now an adult. It should be easy for her to rid herself of these phantoms if she learns to relax. She has the ability to overcome her mistakes, and great endurance and will power to achieve her goals. Nevertheless, she must not repress her sensitivity in order to succeed.

Due to her need for security, Julie tends to limit the scope of her activities, and sometimes must struggle to muster the energy to face unfamiliar situations. She is more or less passive, with a strong urge to take refuge in the past.

Because she discovered her individuality early in life, Julie quickly developed an original and independent identity. Her first taste of liberty may have led her to challenge the education and values she received from family and class tradition, and she was able to forge a strong, original personality and philosophy. Her relationships are usually free of conflict, because she is able to reconcile her need for independence with her desire for affection. However, her partners should be open and lively people, able to keep pace with her in her rapid evolution. She has an inspired and extremely lively wit, and a brisk interest in the future, technological progress, and new lifestyles. She would be especially successful in communications-related careers like journalism, film, TV, radio, and advertising. Although she is an individualist, she has a powerful desire to contribute to the evolution of society and better its development.

Due to her extreme sensitivity and irrepressible imagination, Julie sometimes has trouble distinguishing dreams from reality. Although her imagination can be an abundant source of inspiration for creative or spiritual evolution, it tends to be less helpful and positive in matters that concern earning a decent living out their in the real world. In a relationship, she is extremely romantic, and does not always see others the way they really are. She has elegant tastes, and art and beauty are one of her chief pleasures in life.

Love and Sensuality: Julie's personality is dominated by love and affectivity. She is subject to love at first sight, and her gallant heart sometimes leaps forth impulsively; her sensitivity is lively and powerful. Amorous rivalries and conquests may be a recurring theme throughout her life.

Julie's birth chart indicates an emotional function which is expressed in a direct and fairly impulsive way. She enjoys reaching out to other people and making discoveries. An eternal teenager with her gaze riveted on the future, she is imbued with an eminently subjective and personal idealism.

Somewhat unstable, somewhat infantile, Julie has an extremely intuitive nature, and her seeming sixth sense makes her acutely sensitive to everything. She is excessively emotional, and tends to be somewhat dysfunctional due to her impressionability. She identifies with and reflects the person she loves.
She will find motherhood fulfilling, and it will bring her maturity. As she becomes more peaceful, realistic, and consistent, her family life will come to the forefront. She will adore her children and nurture them as a symbol of her own fulfillment.

Julie has the fiery, importunate nature of a fervent lover. Indeed, affairs of the heart are one of her main purposes in life. Her personal charm and magnetism give her nearly irresistible powers of seduction, and nearly every one of her well-aimed attempts at conquest leads to the fulfillment and satisfaction of her desires. Due to her impulsiveness and impatience to initiate new encounters, her approach to members of the other sex may sometimes lack tact and delicacy.

Mental and Intellect: Julie has a lively wit which gives her great agility and scope, and a broad field of consciousness which enlivens her curiosity and makes her love variety and change. Her mind is alert and her speech is full of verve, humor, and sometimes impudence. These abilities are great resources in communication, discussion, and debate. She is a storehouse of information and ideas of every kind, and delights in manipulating words and concepts, discovering new things, and sharpening her memory for trivial facts. This mental agitation sometimes makes her scattered, however, or lacking in coherence and discipline.

Julie does not express her thoughts and ideas smoothly or easily. She tends to be subjective, seeking to know herself better through a process of introversion.

Julie's intellectual faculties and wit are sometimes slowed down because they are turned inward. Because she tends to be oriented towards herself, she rarely tries to communicate with others for the simple pleasure of doing so. Indeed, she sometimes feels misunderstood. Moreover, it seems difficult to her to express the complexity of her inner perceptions.

Julie has a lively and agile spirit, but she tends to apply her mental abilities in a somewhat haphazard and disorderly way. She is curious and open-minded, approaching various life experiences with an attitude free of both dogmatism and prejudice. The vitality of her mind incites her to have an opinion on every subject, but she does not always have the patience or perspective necessary to examine a subject and gain in-depth knowledge of it, and her insights are sometimes rather superficial. Lacking sufficient elaboration, her judgments are sometimes lame. Although she enjoys manipulating expressions and concepts and amuses herself with witty remarks, satire, and controversy, her conversations sometimes collapse into argument and conflict. Because she is often too hasty to formulate and construct the arguments which would back up and inform her ideas, she is sometimes misunderstood. She is often blind to the rashness of her judgments, and convinced they are well-founded and objective, which sometimes irritates the people around her. Actually, her overriding need to assert herself as an individual sometimes defeats discussion, and prevents her from listening to the other person fairly. But if she were to succeed in disciplining her mind somewhat, she would have innumerable opportunities to apply her communications skills to a great career. Moreover, she should be careful of her nerves, which are fairly high-strung. Any physical fitness activity would be beneficial; an Oriental discipline such as Yoga or Tai-chi-chuan would teach her how to relax and improve her control of her nervous and mental energies.

Energy and Ability to take Action: Julie zigzags from enthusiastic behavior to nonchalance. Deep inside, she feels a fire burning, urging her to seek out and find the ultimate truth. She likes philosophy and has noble convictions as well as a personal code of ethics and morality she is willing to fight to defend. In fact, her beliefs may incite her to do battle against traditional moral and philosophical precepts. She may be inspired to accomplish great travels or projects by her rebellious spirit. She enjoys good food, drink, and conversation; she navigates well in society and has a fairly frank and straightforward approach to emotional relationships.

Julie displays a behavior pattern which is erratic and somewhat frustrating for her. The difficulties she encounters in trying to assuage her appetites and express her emotional urges may be related to her formative years. When she was a child, her parents or teachers may have been unable to recognize her desires and differentiate them clearly from her needs. The confusion still persists, and unconscious psychological memories intrude on her decisions and desires as an adult, sometimes disrupting her behavior. Her spontaneity is assailed by more or less conscious inner conflicts and doubts about her abilities. To free herself, she will have to make an effort to identify her true personal desire. Every time she faces an important choice, she will have to ask herself what she really wants, and if it is possible in regard to the context and circumstances.

The source of this conflict is liable to lie in a relationship with a brother, sister, or peer which aroused feelings of more or less intense rivalry or competition in Julie's formative years. Now, when she encounters a situation or relationship which reminds her of that early conflict in some way, she becomes extremely nervous and irritated, and feels compelled to assert her convictions. Perhaps the reason why she is driven to dominate others intellectually is due to a psychological complex: her words sometimes overtake her thought, and her temper may erupt into uncontrollable rage. Julie should take advantage of the conflicts with those around her to realize the futility of these disputes compared to the essential issues in life. What good is it to try to convince others that a personal philosophy is valid, if one does not live up to it oneself?
 
Dominant Astrological Characteristics
The Moon is the first dominant in Julie's astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

As the second light of the solar system, the Moon has always been associated with the Sun in the minds of men. The Moon and Sun are the primordial cosmic couple. This satellite of the Earth, which mysteriously waxes and wanes, has been compared to the Eternal Feminine principle, the mother hovering over her infant's cradle. Psychologically, the Moon is thus symbolic of the Mother and the Mother Image. This figure is a primordial element in the psyche of each individual. Depending on her nature, the mother figure may correspond to her biological mother, a grandmother, or a woman who cared for her in infancy and childhood. When a person reaches adulthood, this mother-figure and all the emotions and bonds associated with her may be transferred to something else: a husband, a companion, an institution, a church, corporation, or political movement, a cult, etc. In short, any individual or structure likely to take on the mother's duty of caring for and nurturing the vulnerable aspects of an individual. To be more down-to-earth, the Mother-Figure corresponds to the habits which were learned and then definitively incorporated into the individual's identity as she gradually became acculturated and progressed towards social independence. As a result, a strongly " lunar " personality often finds it difficult to adapt, and is uncomfortable outside the secure setting of familiar routines. Closely tied to her past, Julie may be unwilling to detach herself from it and embark on her life as an individual in the here-and-now. She still identifies somewhat with her inner child, and may display a child's capricious and unstable behavior, indulging in moodiness and indecision. Her passivity may make her easily influenced, her sensitivity makes her subjective, and she hesitates to open up and lay her soul bare. In her daily life, psychic activity will rule : her imagination, memory, sensitivity, sensation, and sentiment nearly overwhelm her psyche.

Jupiter is the second dominant in Julie's astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

In traditional astrology, Jupiter has always been considered as the Great Benefactor, the planet of luck and success such as personal fortune, social prominence, professional prestige, high political position... The Jupiterian bounty is peerless! In psychological terms, this planet has a much vaster significance. As the biggest planet in the solar system, it does preside over the process of personal expansion, interpreted to be fitting into society better and finding an appropriate match between one's individual ambitions and the aspirations of the group. These growth is accompanied by a feeling of self-confidence, which, in turn, buoys up an even greater externalization and expansion of the ego. hence the planet's flattering reputation. But this snowball effect (Jupiter smiles and the world smiles with her), in which social skills magnify confidence and boldness reaps many rewards, betrays the negative side of Jupiter: extreme and excess. Although grandeur was the characteristic of the " king of the gods ", errors of judgment, poor taste, and sometimes selfishness and pride are also likely to be part of the Jupiterian package. It is important to note that the extension of the ego may be a form of escape; it is tempting to hide behind one's popularity and social success, which are fairly easy to obtain, rather than be really demanding with oneself. The Jupiterian has a tendency to amplify her qualities out of compensation, to avoid seeing her weaknesses and flaws. As a result, she must be aware of the risk of over identifying with her social mask, which would cause her to neglect her inner self and deep nature.

Pluto is the third dominant in Julie's astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

Pluto is the planet of Transformation. It rules the sign of Scorpio, the sign of death, redemption, and divine mysteries. Pluto's energy is mysterious. Its discovery in 1932 associates it symbolically with the creation of the nuclear bomb and the development of psychoanalysis. In ancient mythology, Pluto was considered to be associated with all the aspects of the underworld - Hades, the Greek name for Pluto, was the god of shell. Today, the underworld is synonymous with the Mafia, and the two share many characteristics. Pluto occupies an important place in the horoscopes of great mystics and spiritual beings, as well as in the theme of certain dictators and tyrants, among them the most ruthless and greedy for power. In psychological terms, Pluto corresponds to the transmutation of instinctive energies into energies which are accessible consciously by the individual's ego. This transmutation, which is never completely controllable, induces a power complex. On the social level, it might be symbolized by the nuclear disaster, the failure of Western man to master the energy of the atom: a power complex gone awry. On the individual level, Pluto is expressed either in a " power complex ", in which instinctive energy is completely transmuted into a personal resource, or as a " failure complex ", in which certain inhibitions prevent the instinctive energy from being transmuted.

The Tenth House is an area of the sky which is especially important in Julie's theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

Traditionally, this part of the sky chart was related to profession, ambition, power, honors and recognition, and eminence. Metaphorically, it was also related to the Father, the Law, the spinal column, etc. The North Node, the gateway into the Tenth House, corresponds to the vertical line connecting the zenith to the nadir. The North Node can be opposed to its partner, the South Node, the lowest point on the map of the sky. As the highest point, it symbolizes the elevation of the individual, her social position. She is sure to derive some power from her social eminence, such as money, prestige, or privilege, but she also has duties to fulfill. When this area is the site of significant activity, it does not mean that the subject will automatically have a high social eminence. It means that she will invest a great deal of energy in acquiring a form of social power. Because the energy is somewhat vague, she will have to become aware of the various desires, needs, and ideals which are motivating and inspiring her. As a result, she will probably become conscious of how closely her social destiny is linked to her family's reputation. Indeed, all the individual can give society is what she has managed to make of herself from the raw material she received form her background. When the Tenth House is especially significant, it means that the use of power deriving from social rank is problematic for the subject. Her attitude towards both accomplishment and failure may be somewhat obtuse. As a result, Julie should always be asking herself why she aspires to a certain career or profession, what her learning is worth, what meaning she wants to give her relationship with society, what she is ready to give of herself, and what she wants from society in exchange.

The Fourth House is an area of the sky which is especially important in Julie's theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

Traditionally, this house is associated with the home, family, inheritance, cultural heritage, traditions, the dwelling, the native land, etc. The South Node, one boundary of the Fourth House, corresponds to the vertical line connecting the Zenith to the Nadir. The polar opposite of the North Node, the highest point on the map of the sky, the South Node is the lowest and, as a result, symbolizes the individual's past; her foundation, sources, and inner self. Within the inner self, in the intimacy of the memory and the unconscious, the individual's family and ancestral past dwell concealed, mingled with the roots of her future development. Psychoanalytic theory demonstrates that an individual's future is determined by early childhood experiences. Astrology does not contradict this assumption, when it points to the Fourth House as the basis of any social or spiritual growth. The fact that this area is significant in Julie's chart means that she is seeking her personal center. She sometimes experiences a feeling of insecurity which inspires her to establish a stable foundation for her life. As a result, she may be reluctant to leave behind the psychic and material pattern she inherited from her biological family and lineage. Certain important crises in her life may be related to this emergence, this construction of a new home in the here-and-now. If she is able to perceive the hidden bond between her reluctance to assert herself as an individual and her roots in her family's past, she will be able to attain true stability.

The First House is an area of the sky which is especially important in Julie's theme, because it contains several planets, including the one which rules her Rising Sign. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

According to tradition, this area is related to the domain of the INDIVIDUAL. It thus rules the subject herself, her character, talents, and abilities. The Rising Sign (at the peak of the First House) corresponds to the horizon line at the moment of birth. By outlining the exact location of the sunrise, it emphasizes the relationship between the cosmos and the Earth, the universal and the individual. In psychological terms, this point on the map of the sky which is represented by the zodiac refers to the necessity for individuation: the need to embody one's potential identity, or the essence of one's identity. When this area is especially prominent, it indicates that the subject's most significant experiences will concern her individuation: what she wants, what she is capable of, what she herself thinks, etc. - those are the important things. Her destiny may be strewn with difficulties and occasional crises, and most of them will be related to a lack of differentiation. This will be the case despite a strong desire to assert an individual identity. It will thus be important for her to isolate and reveal her individuality and specificity by mastering her potentials and becoming unique. This uniqueness, which has nothing to do with mere originality or eccentricity, may justify her true purpose in living.
 
Synthesis and Advice
Many people mistakenly believe that astrology is too deterministic. However, as even the ancients said, " The stars incline but do not determine. " In fact, the astral chart is evidence that each of us is accountable only to himself for his life and his destiny. Neither heaven nor the occasional shell of human contacts can be held responsible for the situation down here on Earth. Astrology shows us that life is what we make of it: all we really obtain is what we decide to accomplish ourselves, of our own volition.

If Julie really wants to improve and transform herself, the first step is to become aware of the weaknesses which may be holding her back and preventing her evolution:
- her shallowness bordering on superficiality
- her lack of sincerity
- her indifference
- her frivolity
- her fear of commitment

For Julie, the main goal to aim for, in order to give purpose and meaning to her life, would be to play a role in the edification of the society. She sometimes feels torn between private life and the outer world. However, her career and the social power it infuses her with will give her the resources necessary for her inner evolution as an individual. She must not yield to her unwillingness to confront the world and her social duties.

Psychological Profile
 
Ideal Partner
Julie's Sun is located at 00° GEMINI. Her femininity and drive for psycho-sexual fulfillment would best be aroused by the masculinity of a person whose Moon is at 0/10° GEMINI or SAGITTARIUS.

This relationship could yield a high degree of psychological compatibility and powerful mutual attraction. The physical and psychological reality of Julie's femininity will exert a magnetic pull over the sensitivity, receptivity, tenderness, and other masculine qualities of her partner.

Julie's Moon is located at 28° CANCER. Her ideal match is a partner with the Sun at 20/30° CANCER or CAPRICORN.

This type of partner would be particularly well-matched to her underlying psychic and unconscious aspirations. The secret ideal this person cherishes of the perfect masculine partner would be aroused; it would harmonize beautifully with Julie's ideal imaginary man. This great psychic compatibility is the result of a harmonious relationship between the Moon of the masculine chart and the Sun of the feminine one. It is propitious to a rich flow of energies between the most hidden and secret parts of both people. They are linked by an unconscious emotional bond.

Julie's Venus is located at 18° ARIES. Her ideal match is a partner with Mars at 12/24° ARIES or LIBRA.

This type of partner would complement her perfectly in emotional and sentimental terms. This person would reflect and fulfill Julie's ideal of masculine sensuality to the greatest degree. Moreover, his ideal imaginary female partner would resonate lastingly with Julie's own psychic projections of her masculine ideal. This positive relationship between the unconscious sexual yearnings of both partners would be likely to yield sensual relations of a tantalizingly mysterious and secret nature.

Julie is fiery, impetuous, and sometimes direct in the expression of her feelings. She is prone to love at first sight, and great passion. She would be especially attracted by the same qualities of frankness and boldness in a man. This type of partner would respect her independence while being devoted and affectionate.

Julie's Planet Mars is located at 13° SAGITTARIUS. Her ideal match is a partner with Venus at 07/19° SAGITTARIUS or GEMINI.

This type of partner would be especially well-suited to her physical and sensual urges. Her sexual longings, desires, and passion would harmonize beautifully with this person's masculinity and receptivity. His eyes, his lips, his skin, his hair... everything about him would arouse her ardor and sharpen her desire. This type of planetary relationship is favorable to true mutual fulfillment of a stable, physical bond.

my comments in blue
 
At the start of the week Mercury is conjunct Venus and face to face with Pluto, eyeballing each other across the cosmic table. This opens the way for a little creative and transformative talking (ok I sorta of see this..the week is getting progressively better and more creative) It could turn a sticky situation into a much-improved one, or make a good one really great. (sticky situation..hmm, almost told the VP of sales what he could do with himself and almost walked out..almost but didn't)
 
If you are about to form a new partnership, this could be a crucial phase that decides whether it all goes ahead or not. (hmm..I wonder is this about my interview or my personal life)
 
Mars conjuncts Uranus in Pisces, which is bringing the rebel out in you with regard to your career and major goals. Somehow you don't feel like you can bear to conform any longer. The way things have been going, life on the job has become boring and very repetitive. Yet Saturn in Cancer is also making you worried about your financial security, so you hardly feel like resigning and going with the flow. Somewhere between these two extremes you need to find the right balance. (back to the sticky situation and me almost walking out and quitting today..yes, definetly a rebel attitude. so very tired of conforming to the crap in the office but I can't afford to quit without another job)
Jupiter in Leo gives you more than enough encouragement to speak up and speak out. As it moves closer to trining Pluto, you still have time to take that bold and decisive step in the right direction. (yes, have an interview next week..)
 
There is even the promise of romance in the air - so have fun! (hmm..wondering where this is leading..til next week)
