Each planet points to special qualitieswithin us. Yet, of all the planets, the two most important planets to astrologers are the "lights,"the Sun and the Moon. From where we stand here on Earth, the great shining Sun by day andthe reflecting Moon at night are our constant companions. They have much to tell us as towhere we have been and where we are headed.The Sun: Your Self and FutureFrom the Sun comes light, that which draws us into life. The Sun represents all the changeswe have not yet taken, that part of us that we have not yet experienced but are headed toward.The Sun represents our identity, or self, in that it is toward these that we are moving anddeveloping. Thus, it also represents that which we will become: older people, authorities --those we look toward, or up to. Our essence, or future. Teachers, gurus, and older (moreexperienced) people are represented by the Sun. The Sun is "hot stuff," those further up the roadof life experience.You are open-minded and democratic, enthusiastic, and have a definite sense of mission.Above all, you are a progressive and enjoy putting into practice that which is good for all. Youraltruism could appear as coolness. At home with different cultures, peoples, and lands, you loveto work with (and in) groups.Sun in AquariusYou will find yourself torn between an environment that is very comfortable and supportiveversus a real need to grow, progress, and push out on your own. You are always being caught inthe middle, forced to choose between surroundings that are supportive (but not progressive) andnew directions that bring advancement that may be at the expense of your comfort. Gettingthese two opposing directions to work together may require some real compromising skills onyour part. This could manifest as a love of history versus future trends, older persons versusyounger, and so on.Moon Opposition SunPlanet Aspects Page 4Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have a basic self-esteem that is plain to all who meet you. Your sense of discriminationand innate good taste means that you know good items from bad and are a connoisseur of allthat is fine and beautiful. A love of authority figures (men in particular), plus an appreciationfor authority and your elders in general, makes you welcome at any social scene.Sun Conjunction VenusA born doer, with an incredible drive to accomplish and achieve in life. Your ambitions arebacked up by the will to get things done. You can be very emotional, and others might find youa bit too aggressive. You try hard and you always push on toward whatever goals you have inmind. A conservative by nature, you tend to stand up for the status quo, and, if male, areprobably a "man's man."Sun Conjunction MarsYou tend to be stubborn and unable to make solid career choices. You get carried away andgo off in directions contrary to your actual needs. Your judgment in vocational matters is oftenoff, sending you on a wild goose chase. In addition, there is possible difficulty with authoritiesand the law and/or differences with older people. To use an old adage, you can (at times) beyour own worst enemy. The advice of a trusted friend regarding career is to be recommended.Sun Square JupiterThe Moon: The Support SystemHere is information about the kind of environment we create around us, our support system.It is not only the surroundings that we set up today, but the Moon also represents our past, theparticular history and social background out of which we grew. Aside from our socialbackground, the Moon governs all of the old habits that we have grown beyond. We tend tolook down on, or back on, our Moon. It represents those experiences out of which we havecome, all those younger souls who are unconscious, or "sub" conscious to our own level. This iswhy it is said that the Moon is a mystery planet, for it is both our parent and our child: ourparent in that out of it we were born, our child in that we can't but respond to others who arenow living as we once did.You can sense and understand the mood and feelings of others, and are excellent atcounseling and nursing. You are quite emotional, and have a natural sense of that whichpleases, knowing the mood of the crowd. You can be overly protective (or protected), but aregood at parenting and creating a home. Quite domestic.Moon in CancerYou may find yourself torn between two loves or passions, a love of the past versus thefuture, mother versus father, a younger crowd versus an older crowd. A basic antagonism ofhome and surroundings against the need to grow, progress, and push on.Moon Opposition SunYou have trouble appreciating or feeling comfortable with your emotions, especially whenwith others. Your particular set of values and appreciation may provoke confrontations withothers. You don't care how they may be feeling, and they may not be very supportive of somePlanet Aspects Page 5Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeof your own values. You are not noted for your great sense of discrimination when it comes toyour surroundings including the environment you live in. You don't care much for psychology,customs, and traditional values, in general.Moon Opposition VenusYou may not get a lot of support for the way you come on -- your basic energy and drive.You tend to go against the crowd and somehow always manage to create reverberation in thosearound you. Some may even find you overbearing, for your intensity runs counter to whateveris traditional or established. This fact could involve you in a lot of arguments over the years.You are not the least bit sentimental, and even tend to ignore sentiment in others.Moon Opposition MarsYou have little use for tradition, history, and the past, in general. Your autonomy andnonconformist attitude tends to ignore the feelings of others. You seem to enjoy confrontation,going out of your way to challenge whatever is traditional and customary. Don't be surprised ifthose around you won't always give you the support you feel you deserve.Moon Opposition UranusThe image you project of what is perfect or ideal from your point of view may find littlesupport at home. Others could oppose or block you in these matters, and maintaining yourdreams may be at the price of your friends and surroundings. You may find your background,environment, and all that is traditional less than ideal, even flat and uninspiring.Moon Opposition NeptuneYou have natural psychological ability, in particular when working with the public. You canhandle emotional and personal issues (vulnerable areas) where angels fear to tread. Peoplesense this about you and trust you with sensitive matters, inner worries, and questions ofpersonal identity. You have a real mission and a sense of purpose.Moon Trine PlutoYour career always seems to get the support you need, and this is one area of life that runssmoothly. You seem to understand what the public wants, and mass marketing is a natural foryou.Moon Sextile MidheavenThe Inner Planets: Mercury and VenusThe planets Mercury and Venus have more to do with our internal and personal life thanwith life outside us. These inner planets are located between the orbit of the Earth and the Sun.We can look to qualities that are inside us. Venus indicates how we appreciate and measure ourexperience, how we value life. Mercury tells us something about how our mind works, how wethink and communicate -- our intrinsic brightness.Planet Aspects Page 6Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeMercury: The Mind and CommunicationMercury is the light in our eyes, the ever-changing consciousness within us that moves fromidea to idea. Thus Mercury has always represented thoughts, ideas, and the mental process ingeneral. It governs not only ideas, but communications, too. Communications -- by phone,letter, spoken, or however -- are ruled by Mercury. Also thoughts, connections, phone wires,and everything that connects and conveys -- even conversations.You are an impartial thinker, democratic to the point of being impersonal. Fascinated by thelatest technology, you have very original ideas, an inventor. Always thinking of the world as aunity, you are idealistic and believe in putting into practice what is preached. You aregroup-conscious, community-oriented.Mercury in AquariusYou are very deliberate when it comes to words, to what you say and think. When youconcentrate, you always come up with what is essential to the matter at hand, ignoring all else.You're anything but "flip," and your more serious approach to ideas, while welcome when thereis mental work to do, may not always be appreciated when others are in more social moods.You are so serious. Philosophy, religion, and the like are natural for you.Mercury Conjunction SaturnGetting personal with you is a real mistake, for it always manages to plunge you intoturmoil. You resent probing on the part of others, yet are fascinated by behind-the-scenes andso-called "secret" information. You may prefer not to think about anything below the surface,but even this is not a constant, and this inner conflict produces more than its share of tension.Mercury Square PlutoYou are never funnier, wittier, or more at your mental best than when in a group or lost in adeep conversation with a partner. You may even neglect your personal interests by devoting somuch of your time and energy to thinking about other people.Mercury Opposition AscendantYour love of talk, ideas, and expressing yourself to others may mean that your family andeven your job may suffer. Your mind is often on your appearance, how you come across andrelate to the crowd, to those around you.Mercury Square MidheavenVenus: Values and DiscriminationVenus rules our values and sense of appreciation. When we appraise or appreciatesomething, whether that be another person or a new car, this is Venus -- the sense of love andcompassion we may feel. By the same token, this planet rules enjoyment too. Whether it beself-appreciation or just plain old decadent self-enjoyment by having a good time, this is Venus.When we go shopping or are on a spending spree, it is Venus that allows us to appreciate andvalue all the good things of life.Planet Aspects Page 7Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeMarriage for convention's sake, if at all, is your motto. Let's not get too personal or emotional.A friend's friend. You love to work for a great cause or purpose, and a better world is the placeto be. You appreciate what's fair and democratic, and feel most happy in a group or community.Venus in AquariusYou have excellent taste and could be expert in all matters of art and discrimination. Youcan always pick out the valuable and worthwhile. You value and appreciate all that is fine andbeautiful. Perhaps an interest in older people or authority.Sun Conjunction VenusYour sense of values and the way you care about things may prove challenging to others.You may not appreciate the emotions and moods you feel, especially when in a group. You maynot care much for psychology, history, or the problems of younger people.Moon Opposition VenusYou don't like making career decisions, and you can get downright confused when it comesto making the right choice. You may not appreciate advice, and this makes the problemsomewhat more complex. It could be important for you to get the counsel of a trusted friend,someone who can advise you as to the right choices. Whether you happen to like them or not,once you have determined the right route, you should take it.Venus Square JupiterThe External Planets: Mars, Jupiter, SaturnThe major planets outside the Earth's orbit (external to us) are Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.These are the planets of the outer world -- life as we find it outside ourselves. Mars tells ussomething about the drive and energy we have, Jupiter shows us how to best channel thatenergy, and Saturn decrees what sort of material or territory we will be passing through. Again:Saturn tells us about the territory we will be going through, Jupiter the way or path through it,and Mars what kind of push or drive we can count on to keep going.Mars: Drive and EmotionsMars is the planet of emotion and inner motivation or drive. When we search for themeaning of something, life or whatever, it is Mars that urges us on, keeps us searching. Marsalso drives us against things, too and sends us into war and combat. The urgency of Mars, thesearch for meaning, is identical to the need for union, yoga, and marriage. Mars is the planet ofunion, and marriage is the most common form of yoga. When we have questions about theopposite sex, we are looking at the planet Mars.You are a very hard worker and are driven to accomplish, manage, and be in control. Youlike to manipulate a situation for its own benefit and would make a natural supervisor. Youhave an inner urge for order and organization and a great sense of responsibility. You arecompetent, ambitious, and cool.Mars in CapricornPlanet Aspects Page 8Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou are very motivated, with a strong drive and urge to do and accomplish. Others could findyou a bit pushy. With an eye to progress and the future, you feel compelled to try for what isjust out of your reach. You support authority in all forms.Sun Conjunction MarsOthers may find you pushy, for your motivation and drive could run counter to theestablished values of the group. You tend to go against sentiment and refuse to credit emotions.Culture and history don't fascinate you. You get a lot of reactions.Moon Opposition MarsYou are probably hard to control and very unpredictable. Your drive for independence isobvious, and it is clear that the common and the traditional are not for you. Anything else butthat! You pursue alternate or nonconformist solutions to life with great energy. Your temper ishot and sharp and tends to snap out like a lightning bolt. You are aggressive in the pursuit ofgaining insight into all that is new, different, and out of the ordinary. Electronics, computers,and communications could be a big part of your life.Mars Conjunction UranusA desire for unity and atonement. You have an urge to put out to sea and to somehow getpast what separates and into that which unites or ties things together. Your drive to makedreams real keeps you working for your vision. The ideal should be made real. You put yourwhole heart into making your dreams and ideals a reality.Mars Conjunction NeptuneYou enjoy working with whatever is psychological -- the hidden, vulnerable, sensitive areasof the mind and self. You can handle material that is sensitive or taboo without batting an eye.This interest in all that is psychological makes you an excellent teacher in the field. You have anatural grasp for the political, for handling the public, and you know how to get your way. Yourdrive in these areas amounts to a passion, and those around you may feel that you are often toointense. Power struggles are somewhat routine for you.Mars Sextile PlutoYou put forth a lot of effort, in particular regarding your career. Your drive and ambitionswork well with whatever management skills and practical ability you have, producing aharmonious work environment.Mars Trine MidheavenJupiter: Career and Life PathJupiter is the planet of success and simple survival, the way we have to solve the problemsthat confront us. Thus Jupiter has to do with the way in which we can be successful, ourvocation. The Hindu word for Jupiter is Guru. Jupiter is the guru and guide, the way we gothrough life, our life path or vocation. Jupiter is the method each of us has for dealing with thelaws of life, our Saturn, or limitations. Jupiter is the light or path. Jupiter provides us with oursense of direction, the path we are on, the way we handle life. It affects how we approach life'sproblems. It has always been an indicator of how successful we may be, our vocation.Planet Aspects Page 9Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeAn in-fighter, with animal-like instincts when it comes to big business, you are always wherethe action is most intense. Your penetrating mind gets through the B.S. and straight to thebottom line every time. Exciting to be near, you are an entrepreneur, the big wheel. Sometimesrestless, driven.Jupiter in ScorpioYou may tend to take paths at right angles to your real ambitions and self-interest. Troublewith authorities or older people can result. Your struggle to succeed is aided when you showself-control or discipline and find that middle road.Sun Square JupiterYou have a habit of ignoring what is best for you and taking roads that you know will leadnowhere, but might be fun to take. Career decisions may have to be made that don't cater toyour particular likes, dislikes, and value system.Venus Square JupiterSaturn: ResponsibilitiesThe process of finding out who we are (self-discovery) starts when we come to grips withwhatever problems life presents to us and begin to get a handle on them. In other words, if wehave not dealt with Saturn, or time (that is, if we don't have some control of time), there is littleopportunity for other questions. Saturn rules the laws and limitations of this material world weall live in. Saturn indicates where we are bound to learn, the narrowness that makes our wayfelt, the walls that make homes possible. Saturn holds us together as much as apart. Saturn issaid to be the great teacher, the planet that keeps us from getting carried away in one directionor another. Although it always seeks to limit and determine any thought, word, or action, it alsodefines and clarifies. Saturn is called the prince of the material world.You have an innate distrust of groups or large organizations and could tend to avoid what isnew or future-oriented. You are, perhaps, too conservative and need to develop a sense ofcommunity and sharing with others. Learn to be independent. Practice impartiality and altruism.Be innovative.Saturn in AquariusYou are a serious thinker and don't often waste words. Concentration is easy for you, anddetailed, technical, mental work would suit you just fine. Not free with your words, some mayfind you a tad on the sober side. A disciplined mind.Mercury Conjunction SaturnYour very organized self tends to hide behind duties and responsibilities. This no-nonsenseapproach manages to push aside many opportunities for others to reach out to you and get close.You resist getting personal and tend to avoid issues that are touchy and might result inconfrontation and change.

Ingeneral, these planets refer to life as we know and live it and are the so-called historical orclassic planets. Beyond these are three planets that are not visible in the sky and which havecycles longer than the average human life span. Since they are beyond Saturn or time,astrologers call them the trans-personal or transcendental planets -- the planets beyond thephysical. One of the ways astrologers learn something about our life beyond time (eternal life)is through these three outer planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Here we find information onhow we discover ourselves (Uranus), how we understand and accept these discoveries(Neptune), and, in time, how we depend and identify with them (Pluto).Uranus: Break-Thrus & InsightsOur responsibilities can tend to weigh us down, and we each have our particular ways ofgetting around (or breaking through) the mass of obstructions that tends to congeal around us.The planet that has to do with how we get beyond the difficulties and problems life presents usis Uranus. Here is the way insights come to us, how we discover or come to know andunderstand ourselves. It has to do with finding new uses for old things, and it rules inventionsand sudden insights into our life -- everything that is unusual, eccentric, and out of the ordinary.It is the reverse of the status quo and is always unconventional and heretical. Uranus is, in manyways, the opposite, or undoing of Saturn.You are innovative in the political and business arena. You find new ways to manage andcontrol things and people. Ever practical, you come up with new or alternate forms ofmanagement -- breakthroughs in top-level management and corporate styles. You bring newlife to conservative traditions. Your emotions are very staid.Uranus in CapricornYour independence and general unconventionality may sometimes be offensive to others.You like to go against the grain, break free, and relish the unusual and different. You may rebelagainst tradition, the past, history, and the like.Moon Opposition UranusYour temper is a hot one and tends to come bursting forth. A drive for independence andnonconformity takes you beyond the ordinary into the unusual and eccentric. You could pursueelectronics, computers, and the like.Mars Conjunction UranusPlanet Aspects Page 11Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have real vision and insight into the unity that ties this world together. Your brilliantimagination and enchanting manner transport all who meet you beyond the mundane and intothe extraordinary regions where you spend a lot of your time. You are a seer, in the true senseof the word, and possess a waking experience of that part of us that is mystical and dreamlike.You find new ways to bring people together, to unify situations. Unusual music.Uranus Conjunction NeptuneYou have great insights into what motivates the public, crowds, and the mind in general.You can work with sensitive and vulnerable psychological areas without batting an eye, andwould be good at instructing others in these areas. Your keen mind and great analytical powersalways manage to get at whatever motivation is beyond apparent behavior. You can see what isbehind touchy and very personal matters.Uranus Sextile PlutoYou tend to be creative and original in your work and career, managing to bring new ideasand spontaneity to bear.Uranus Trine MidheavenNeptune: Ideals & ImaginationEven the most hard-nosed of us have moments of real understanding, when things are seenas linked together and one piece. We stop getting the idea in little flashes and just get the wholething. It dawns on us. We each have our own way of letting go, having communion, and (as thepoet wrote) letting "the dewdrop slip into the shining sea." These moments and this state ofmind are, in fact, the source for all our imagination. There are many ways of seeing through theseparateness in the world to the unity behind it.The practical is the ideal. Form follows function. You have a dream of being in control --the puppet master. You are very interested in tradition and tend to be dignified andconservative. You believe in an orderly society led by benevolent monarchs -- those who cansee what to do.Neptune in CapricornYour hopes and dreams may be maintained at the expense of your emotions and home life.Others may challenge or find themselves opposed to your ideals or the image you project. Yourinterest in the occult and spiritual may not always find group support.Moon Opposition NeptuneYou are driven to make your dreams and ideals a reality. "What could be and should be,will be and must be" is your slogan. You are committed to ideas like world unity andcommunity. You are living in your own dreams.Mars Conjunction NeptuneYou could be a visionary, with unusual and direct insight into everything mystical, thedreams and ideals we all have. You are at your most creative when you are using yourimagination, pursuing your dreams, creating images.Uranus Conjunction NeptunePlanet Aspects Page 12Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou prefer a career that accents your own devotion to the dreams and ideals you stand for.Working with groups in a spirit of cooperation and communion is a natural.Neptune Trine MidheavenPluto: Inner Change and GrowthPluto is the planet of profound change, starting deep within us and moving toward thesurface. It often touches upon the most sensitive psychological areas inside us. Once touched,we have no choice but to change and grow. The most sensitive of experiences, the times ofgreatest vulnerability, are times of complete identification with an experience, a person, or athing. We know in these instants that we are looking at our self, what we are. The most personalof experiences is one of complete identification with a person, moment, or idea. Perhaps this isonly possible for most of us when we look into our child's eyes, and then only infrequently.Love is not the experience here, but total identification. This is very sensitive stuff. To touchupon this material is to go through deep inner change and transformation -- inner alchemy.Identification and experiencing that life is our own creation and that, in fact, you are I and I amyou. This experience breaks us down and humbles. When we touch upon this experience, wecannot but die to what we have been thinking and doing up to now. It reduces us to our mostsensitive because -- in a flash -- we see or remember that it all is us, our life.You tear through appearances in an effort to get beneath, behind, and at the heart oressence. You may find psychology, initiation, and mysticism, and the occult of great interest.Intense personal change and inner growth are lifelong habits.Pluto in ScorpioA born psychologist. Able to understand and handle a crowd and the public in general.Devoted to children and the idea of future changes. Not much given to a misuse of personalpower. Always this sense of vision and purpose. Intense. The long haul.Moon Trine PlutoYour personal life and secret thoughts may be something that you have difficulty speakingabout or expressing to others. This can produce tension that gives way to bouts of deepsearching and analysis, even gossip. The bigger the front, the more it is hiding.Mercury Square PlutoGreat intensity of emotions and purpose. Could be a spokesperson for a cause or ageneration. Fearless in action and not afraid to use power. Will have your way. Know how toget what you want. A very magnetic and perhaps controversial personality.Mars Sextile PlutoPower struggles may occur, in particular between your sense of responsibility and an urgeto transform yourself utterly. Your more orderly self tends to ignore signs of change until theyerupt as major upheavals. An ongoing cycle.Saturn Square PlutoSpiritual or psychological insight of the first order.

Philosophy, religion, and the like are natural for you.Mercury Conjunction Saturn 07°54'ChallengesLife can be challenging, and things are not always easy. The major challenges in a natalchart are where we can expect increased activity and personal involvement -- ready or not.These critical areas of life can be difficult, and the resulting confusion and possible obscurationoften makes it hard for us to see and act with normal clarity. Therefore, when it comes to thefollowing factors you may wish to exercise caution and extra patience.You may not get a lot of support for the way you come on -- your basic energy and drive.You tend to go against the crowd and somehow always manage to create reverberation in thosearound you.

Whether you happen to like them or not,once you have determined the right route, you should take it.Venus Square Jupiter 03°50'You are never funnier, wittier, or more at your mental best than when in a group or lost in adeep conversation with a partner. You may even neglect your personal interests by devoting somuch of your time and energy to thinking about other people.Mercury Opposition Ascendant 05°02'Getting personal with you is a real mistake, for it always manages to plunge you intoturmoil. You resent probing on the part of others, yet are fascinated by behind-the-scenes andso-called "secret" information. You may prefer not to think about anything below the surface,but even this is not a constant, and this inner conflict produces more than its share of tension.Mercury Square Pluto 05°53'You tend to be stubborn and unable to make solid career choices. You get carried away andgo off in directions contrary to your actual needs. Your judgment in vocational matters is oftenoff, sending you on a wild goose chase.

Since childhood, adolescence, and early adult life are so crucial toeach of us, an attempt has been made to describe these formative years. Based on the gradualmovement of the planet Saturn, this is one of the most tested of all astrological techniques. It isused by almost every professional astrologer as part of any personal consultation. Provided thatyour time of birth is more or less accurate, you will find this information both accurate andinformative. Here is a general life overview, followed by a close-up on your current changes --what is happening right now. First the overview:Your Personal BackgroundYou are a late bloomer, and your childhood should be an easy one. However, in your earlyteens (somewhere around the age of 14-15), you will take a distinct turn toward the more innerand subjective. This could mean a number of years when you feel insecure, very alone, andquite on your own. The years from 14 through 21 or 22 will be times of intense searching andself-examination during which you may not have much outwardly to show others as to who youare or what you can do. You could be perceived as hard to reach, and you may feel that no onerecognizes who you are. Fear not, for this is not a long-term condition. In your early to middletwenties, you will have a real awakening (suddenly find yourself), will move outward, and willfind something upon which you can build with confidence. Each year afterwards brings a gainLandscape: Major Life Periods Page 18Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakein self-confidence and accomplishments. Your most successful years (from 30-40) will bringyou material gain and outward recognition. You could reach a peak of fame or success aroundthe 37th or 38th year.Your Current SituationNow for a close-up of recent years: while landscape was quite general, the dates given inthis close-up should be much more precise. Life is composed of sections of time, each devotedto one kind of activity or another. We go along for a while in one direction until somethingchanges within (or outside) us and we head off in a new course. Some of our earlier activitiesdry up and new ones spring up in their place. What follows is an analysis of the time period inwhich you find yourself now. Don't look here for a day-to-day account of life but rather to get apicture of this stretch of time, "these years."Aug 09, 2007 3rd Pass D> (Age 13 6m)The date(s) (above) indicate the end of a very outward and perhaps successful period ofyears for you, during which you may have had an opportunity to establish yourself both incareer and reputation. You may find yourself becoming less interested in the outer and socialworld and more interested in your own inner changes. There will be less of an impulse forrecognition along with a growing sense of being by yourself and enjoying it. This coming timewill be less outward and may call for a change of approach and perhaps life style. This is not atime of outreach, not the best point to start any great projects. Instead you may wish toconsolidate what you now have, pull back a bit, and prepare for a number of years of a moreinward and personal nature. This will be a time of introspection, and you may find yourselfletting go of plans and projects started in a more outward phase but as yet uncompleted. Youmay take an interest in your own psyche, religion, and spiritual ideas. This is a time to absorband take in new impressions and information. In summary, here is a natural breaking-point inlife, a time to let go of what has been occupying you for the last years and assume a newattitude. Many people find themselves withdrawing socially and enjoying their own company.In summary: This marks a more inward period that will last 6-7 years, during which you mayfeel insecure and on your own. Don't expect to make great headway in the outer, social world.Bide your time and prepare for your "coming out" a few years down the road.Saturn in 01st QuadrantThe Elements, Modalities and AngularityElements, modalities, and house quadrants. These are all techniques used by astrologers togain a general picture of how a person measures up. How do your planets and houses total up?The Elements, Modalities and Angularity Page 19Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeWhich do you have in abundance, and which do you lack, if any? Those with high totals showwhat we can or must do in life. These are qualities we have. However, most people are moreinterested by what they lack or want -- their lowest totals. They tend to study their "wants,"imitate, and even pretend to have them. The old adage is: we become what we want (or lack),while we do what we can (or have to do). Here are your totals:There is an emphasis on communication, expression of ideas, and the connections betweenthings, places, and people. What goes on in your mind is the all-important motivation in yourlife. You tend towards mental pursuits and admire intelligence.Have AirYour inner self-confidence may be lacking, and you could try to overcome this by defensiveaggressiveness. You probably wish you had more of the self-assurance your fiery acquaintanceshave.Want FireA solid supporter, always gravitating to the heart of things. You may have trouble gettingmoving, but once rolling, others better watch out. You have a stick-to-itiveness that alwaysfinds you in the thick of things, toughing it out.Have FixedYou may lack flexibility, managing a foot-in-the-mouth when you least need it. You couldhave trouble adapting to situations or to the demands of those around you. Perhaps it is not easyfor you to communicate or smooth over things.Want MutableCircumstances can throw you into positions where you must use your mind and deal withcommunications, service, or enclosed hidden interests. You may deal with education,psychology, spiritual enlightenment or teaching principles and techniques.Have CadentYour Burn RateWe all change, but the question is: At what rate? Some of us tear through change afterchange, one phase following another, year after year, while others move at a more serene pace.Or, one area of our lives may be hectic and forever changing, while other areas are quitetranquil. Why do some people seem to live lifetimes within lifetimes? Here is an analysis ofyour particular rate of change or "burn rate," including the particular areas of your life (planets)where you can expect continued change and growth. Areas where there is a very low index ofchange (indicating clear and easy use of the qualities involved) will also be pointed out. If youhave sometimes wondered about the areas of your life where the candles burn at both ends, hereare the details.Your Burn Rate Page 20Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have an average amount of change present in life, neither too much nor very little.Specific planets, either high or low, will be presented after this (if any exist).A majority of planets in the PAST suggests that you are comfortable with establishedvalues. You know and understand more than you let on, and life changes seldom take you bysurprise. You have a great deal of control over your actions.Planets in High FocusYour drive and emotions are very pure and clear. They will tend to be tranquil and notsubject to continual adjustment and change. This is a special gift -- clear-seeing in emotionalmatters.MarsQuestions of attitude, approaches to problem-solving, and the methods for handlingauthorities and the law are in high focus and are indicated by a high burn rate regarding yourcareer and making your way through life. Perhaps you will have many jobs or be forever goingthrough changes and adjustments that affect your career. It could be difficult finding lastingsuccess or prosperity, and the path to it may be areas where you have real experience andparticular expertise.JupiterYou have a high burn rate (go through a lot of changes) when it comes to sensitive,psychological areas of your life or times when you are feeling vulnerable. Direct confrontationtends to put you through a lot. You prefer diplomacy but find yourself in the midst of stickysituations on a regular basis.PlutoPatterns: Your Inner and Outer SelfHere we are examining your basic attitude or approach to life, what is called by some thearchetype or soul-type. If you know something about your particular soul-type, this can providevaluable information as to the general direction and purpose of your life. In particular, it isimportant to note the difference, if any, between our outer personality (the way we appear toothers) and our real inner self; how are we, in fact, as people get to know us? Not all people areas they seem.You are no secret. Outside or inside, there is not much difference. You are just as youappear.Geo: Square Helio: SquarePatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 21Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYour Soul TypeYou are independent, confident, and more than likely more than a little self-centered. Youlove attention and somehow manage to gravitate to the center of almost any group orhappening. Others accept you, for they sense you are a leader and admire your almost regalmanner. Yet they may have to keep their distance, for as much as you love attention and thecrowd, you are also fiercely protective of your independence, sense of freedom, and -- above all-- your privacy. There is a kind of contradiction here. When in the mood, you love to expressyourself, entertain and perform for others, and enjoy being surrounded by an audience. You arevery magnetic and dynamic. Others love to be with you. There is something about you thatothers can't seem to get enough of; yet for all your confidence, you tend to depend on others foradvice and counsel. Your grasp of the moment is unquestioned. You're it, or at least always inthe midst of it. Yet you find yourself needing the advice of someone who is not as involved,someone to give you directions from time to time. In a sense, you are all dressed up but are notsure where to go or where you are headed. And because of this, you depend on those aroundyou for direction and guidance during the times when you lose sight of the bigger picture.You are a very feeling person and can sense the drift of a situation without a lot of analysis.This immediate "hands-on" approach might be contrasted with one that is more deliberate andcerebral. You could be left with a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to matters ofeducation, philosophy, and conceptual ability. In a word, you revere this kind of stuff, notbecause it is natural to you but rather because it does not come easy for you. You have to workfor it. There may be a tendency on your part to puff up your intellectual powers.It is said that there are just two kinds of people in the world, those who are born to love andthose who are born to be loved. You are the second type, one who is born to be loved and caredfor by others. Don't feel bad about attracting attention in a group. People love to be with youand find you very easy to love. Everyone wants a piece of you, and this can result in yourneeding more space, a chance to be alone. Your type is not famous for being attentive to theneeds of others or being very demonstrative in a love relationship. You are the immovableobject that others find irresistible and sometimes selfish. You love to express yourself and are aborn entertainer. You are very stubborn and have great stamina. You may tend to fear thatothers find you a little dense or too sense-oriented. You radiate energy and information andhave to just accept the fact that people like to feel your warmth. Let them take care of you. Yousit on the throne.Square TypeThe Key to your Inner LifeEach person has one or more key qualities. Here we are not referring to our appearance orpersonality, but rather to our inner nature, how we are when someone really gets to know us.Just being yourself, living your life for the moment, being here now. In some sense, justbeing yourself is both the goal itself and the means of traveling to that goal. Others sense thatyour life is important. You are your own reason for being. You are yourself both the end thatPatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 22Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeyou are heading for and the way, or vehicle, that gets you there. You, as a being, are yourselfthe heart and center of all your inner activity. Your dreams, visions, and ideals propel you, butalways from within. You follow the inner guide, and your ambitions are true and serve to showthe way.SunYour most essential quality has to do with the very real love and compassion you radiate.Your sense of values and sheer appreciation for life are communicated to all who come to knowyou. Beyond whatever external considerations may be present, you exude a contagiousthankfulness and fondness for things and people. These inner, loving qualities are experiencedas a very real good.VenusThe Key to your PersonalityThe key to understanding your personality and the circumstances in which you find yourselfcan be found in the environment or support system that surrounds you. You are very much thecreature of habit and habitat, and the encircling network of friends, relationships, and what-notare crucial to your success or lack thereof. You are nourished in great measure by theatmosphere and conditions you are able to set up.MoonThe Personal Hot SpotYou tend to take everything with great intenseness. Your drive to get at the heart and truthof things is constantly invoked, and serves as a common theme in your life.PlutoEmotions and drive take the heat as far as being a prime focus for action in your personalsphere.MarsInterface: Innermost qualitiesThis feature is based on an intricate analysis of the position of a particular planet in relationto the orbital planes of the other planets. The resulting series of crossings, or nodes, tells ussomething about the nature of our innermost inclinations (Inc) and disinclinations (Dis). Theseindicators are not to be considered at the level of our personality, but rather are deep-seatedparts of our innermost character -- our internal biases. These pros and cons are not apt to changein the course of our lifetime.Interface: Innermost qualities Page 23Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYour value system has little room for the mystical, much less whatever the psychics are talkingabout. When these things crop up, you cut them off early on. Your position is simple: dreams,images, spiritual thoughts, and what-not are just not your cup of tea. You don't care for them.And yet, this whole subject fascinates you. There is a siren-like quality to all of this, calling andluring you. Sooner or later, this must be worked through.Venus Dis NeptuneYou have a relentless drive to get at the heart of things, whatever is under the surface orbehind the scenes. Your relentless pursuit of anything hidden or secret makes you a researcheror investigator bar none. Emotionally you are also hot stuff, rushing into areas and handlingsubject matter that others would never come near. Vulnerable issues, sensitive areas of the self,and psychology are the first places you head. This amounts to a passion with you. Those aroundyou may find you just too intense to be around. It puts them through a great many changes.Mars Inc PlutoYou have real difficulties when it comes to matters of self-discipline. Your career suffersdue to your lack of training and education. You go against authority, clashing with it rather thanfinding a way to work with and learn from it. You end up taking an unplanned course of actionthat lacks any organization and seldom holds up for long. Taking the easy way out can be verypainful. You come back to square one again and again.Jupiter Dis SaturnSecrets have a short half-life around you, for you have them out in a wink of an eye. Youare brilliant when it comes to insights into the mind, psychology, and motivation -- yours orothers'. Your intensity is obvious, and some may prefer to keep their distance rather thansubject themselves to your laser eye. Nothing is passed over without being turned inside andout. Your analytical powers are superb, and you enjoy finding new avenues of inner growth.Uranus Inc PlutoYour interest in religion, spiritual matters, and things that stretch beyond the course of asingle human lifetime is quite unique. Others may not be able to share your vision into thespiritual and psychological, seeing you as something of a weirdo. To get to know you is tocatch a glimpse, however brief, into some of the eternal thoughts and realms. You are verydevotional when it comes to anything connected to spiritual and inner growth, and the processof personal introspection and analysis is also sacrosanct.Neptune Inc PlutoMajor Transits Happening NowAstrologers use the term "transits" to mean the positions of the major planets that areoverhead (in the sky) right now and their relationship to our birth chart. Transits are veryimportant indicators of the current situation in which we find ourselves. They can provideMajor Transits Happening Now Page 24Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeinsight into what we are now going through. Here are the dates when the next major transits forthe planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are exact in your chart. Some dates willhave already passed and some are still to come. Remember, with these large planets transitsdon't just happen on the day when they are exact. They cover a wide span of days, weeks,months, and sometimes years, depending on which planet is involved.In general, transits of Jupiter take from several days to a week or two to complete, whilethose of Saturn take from two weeks to a month to play themselves out. With the outer planets,the period of activity is even longer: transits of Uranus take about two months, Neptune three orfour months, and Pluto takes about a year. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto move so slowly that thecomplete transit experience may take a year or two to complete itself. So be prepared to workwith these situations.Jun 06, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 20 4m)The career path is open and clear, yet it may go against or challenge some of your idealsand life dreams.

Here is an analysis of house activity based onplanet emphasis:First House: Appearance, ApproachThe first house has to do with how we appear or the way we come across, thus ourappearance and personality. This is the essential stuff that bubbles up in us spontaneously andthat is obvious to others as our trademark or activity. It is what makes us each so personallydifferent. This house rules our personal self and everything about us that draws a reaction fromour surroundings or others.First HouseLeo energy is expressive, emotive, and concerned with awareness and a sense of pride andownership. Here is always a sense of home base or confidence from which the aggressive andoutgoing Leo energy operates. Often very artistic, and always theatrical and expressive, thissign is good for creativity and the arts. Warm and big-hearted, this sign belongs to love ofanimals, sports, children.LeoSecond House: Possessions, ReactionsThe second house is concerned with how we respond to or field whatever impulses orunique and personal qualities we manifest via our first house. This is how we hold or "have"things (possessions, material goods, money, and the like). The second house always refers tohow we secure ourselves, the kind of response we get from life and those around us.Second HouseVirgo energy is analytical and precise, always separating what is worthwhile and worthsupporting from that which is outmoded and of no further use. A mental sign, where thinkingand examining are in high focus. Also, a different kind of mother, here an endless caring andworrying (fussing) about just about everything. Always compassionate and responsive, Virgoenergy is service-oriented above all, often thinking and caring more about what others are doingand thinking than for self.VirgoHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 27Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeThird House: Inquiries, CommunicationsThe third house is concerned with explorations, investigations, and inquiry and research ofall kinds. It also rules connections, communications, wires, tubes -- anything that we can getthrough with our body, mind, voice, letters, what-have-you. It is here that we explore andsearch for the limits of our life, whatever we are working with at the moment. A very mentalhouse, concerned with finding, furthering, peering, and all manner of questioning. Traditionallyrules short journeys, siblings.Third HouseLibra energy is always facilitating and responsive, assuming the appropriate reaction orresponse to any question or statement. What is sometimes seen as two-faced is only Libra'sfacility at responding to each in kind. This is certainly the social sign, par excellence.Impersonal and impartial, this sign doles out only what is demanded, never overdoing things.LibraA born investigator and researcher, always inquiring, searching, following things to theirlogical conclusion. Your career will probably be built around these qualities of yours --communication, making connections, thoughts and ideas, and so on.Jupiter in Third HouseFourth House: Home, Family, SecurityThe fourth house is where we send down roots, find our limits, and generally secureourselves. It is the end of any searching we might have done in the third house. Here we find orend our search, settle down, and manage to get in possession of the whole situation. This is ourhome and the base from which we can work, feel, and experience. This is the root of ourexperience, the core or thick of it.Fourth HouseScorpio is the most famous sign. Intense, passionate, and very personal, Scorpio rushes pastsuperficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but a fanatic foe, this signdoes well in politics and all areas where someone who dares is rewarded. Often associated withsexual energy, perhaps due to its tendency to strip away veneer, laying bare anything that isthere.ScorpioYou may go through a lot of changes that affect your sense of security. Your home andfamily situation could be a focus for growth and real learning -- an area of great sensitivity andvulnerability.Pluto in Fourth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 28Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeFifth House: Expression, CreativityThe fifth house has to do with awareness, emotion (to move out), and expression (to pressout). Here there is always a growing sense of self-confidence and even a pride of ownership,since we begin to recognize and own our experience. We know that we have had or are havingan experience. All forms of expression and offspring are connected to this house -- children,animals, creative expression, and so on. A sense of direction and ownership takes hold at thispoint in our experience.Fifth HouseSagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid, and to the point. Sometimes harsh, this energyalways is concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand. Associated with philosophy,religion, and all things that last, Sagittarius energy is always welcome in politics as well associal and community endeavors, where its basic fairness and evenhandedness is helpful.SagittariusYou are unconventional when it comes to self-expression and enjoyment. You find new anddifferent ways to get it out -- possibly sports, the creative arts, and such. Always independentwhen it comes to emotions, you don't mind feeling a little different.Uranus in Fifth HouseYou have great creative imagination, perhaps a strong sense for the dramatic and the abilityto express ideas of a mystical or other-worldly flavor. Entertaining children (and adults) withenchanting stories and the like is indicated.Neptune in Fifth HouseSixth House: Responsibility, Work, HealthThe sixth house has to do with salvaging and preserving what is good and healthy in ourexperience. Here we separate the wheat from the chaff. We begin to care for ourselves and ourexperience and thus health, nutrition. The idea here is that we are able to analyze our experienceand have thoughts about what is pure and what is not. The sixth house is an attempt to save theheart of an experience, one that already by that attempt is beginning to pass or not cohere.Sixth HouseCapricorn is the business energy of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of the emotionalCancer. Given to clear-headedness and practical insight and vision, this sign always takes adistanced perspective, a cool appraisal. Logical and painstaking, Capricorns love hard work andearned results. Money and things in general are very important.CapricornYou are a good worker, always thinking and caring for things. You are naturallyservice-oriented and enjoy taking care of the needs of others. You are very discriminating andcan sort out the good apples from the bad.Sun in Sixth HouseYou are skilled at using your mind in an analytical manner, always discriminating. AnHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 29Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeexpert at quality control, you can spot the bad apples every time. You may be skillful when itcomes to health-related matters (mental or physical).Mercury in Sixth HouseYou like to do things with care and enjoy being discriminating and exact. Your criticalfaculties are excellent, and you can always pick out what is worth saving and what is not. Youappreciate a caring attitude and are service-oriented.Venus in Sixth HouseYou are very motivated when it comes to matters of care and service -- taking care ofdetails. You are up for any task that requires conservation -- separating the wheat from thechaff. An urge to salvage everything.Mars in Sixth HouseSeventh House: Relationships, Other PeopleThe seventh house is the house of partnerships, relationships, social life, and all that carriesus beyond our personal self into an awareness of other people, community, and the like. Thisincludes spiritual awakening and the discovery that we are more than just our personality. Herewe begin to respond to our personal needs (and those of others) for the first time. We can seewhat is going on and are committed to it; thus, marriage and yoga, or union, is indicated in thishouse.Seventh HouseAquarius, the sign of humanitarian goals and altruism. Always impartial and nonsectarian,Aquarian energy is communal (even global). The focus is on the goal, and the goal is alwaysone that is for the many and not the few. Thus this sign is connected to far-seeing visions, worldviews, and group work of all kinds. This sign tends towards coolness, independence.AquariusRelationships are so important to you that they could be a stumbling block at times. It maybe difficult for you to be close, as you are very demanding of others. You are not satisfied withsuperficialities. You want a lasting marriage (union, yoga).Saturn in Seventh HouseEighth House: Business Savvy, EliminationThe eighth house, traditionally the house of death, is concerned with getting rid of excessparts of ourselves that we see we no longer need. Thus this house also covers initiation and anyactivities where we are transforming toward a more integral position, getting to the heart ofthings. The no-nonsense quality of the eighth house makes it good for business ventures sincehere we are stripping away the dross to reveal the truth or essence of the subject.Eighth HousePisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath the surface.This sign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend to absorb all the little barbsand digs coming from outside. They always have their mind on an inner goal, something moreHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 30Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeimportant. They are very forgiving and accepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of moreimportant issues.PiscesNinth House: Religions, Philosophy, IdeasThe ninth house covers long journeys and religion (the longest journey of all). Here is whatremains of the purification that takes place in the eighth house -- the seed, or essence, of anentire cycle of experience. Religion comes from a Latin word that means to bind back, and thusrefers to all things that last or endure, such as the truth. Essential ideas, philosophy, and all thatis the very heart of things belong here.Ninth HouseAries is the sign of the pioneer and leader. It is always impulsive, concentrated, andspontaneous. Act first and think about what you have done later. Rushing in where others fearto tread, the Aries energy is attention-getting. It always provokes a response from thesurroundings, from others. There is something essential and instigative that starts or causessomething else to happen -- a reaction or response.AriesTenth House: Practical Vision, VocationThe 10th house is a house of practical vision and clairvoyance, for here we can see clearlywhat is. Reputation and career are often connected to this house, since the areas where we cansee with greatest clarity are those we most often can put to use to make a living. In summary,this house is where we have real vision and can see to do and work. Planets transiting this housemay provide moments of insight and clear-seeing as well.Tenth HouseTaurus manages to respond, possess, and "have" just about everything possible. This is anurturing and fertile sign in that any seed or impulse is cradled, bringing forth growth anddevelopment. Taurus is the way we "have" things, how we possess and acquire things. There issomething gentle, regular, steadfast, and determined about Taurus. Always accepting,mothering, providing a base for... a matrix or womb where growth takes place.TaurusEleventh House: Dreams & Visions, CommunityThe 11th house has to do with putting our visions and dreams to work. We have been on themountain and had a vision (10th house). Here we take our vows never to forget what we haveseen and to work hard to make these dreams into reality. Thus this house has always beenconnected with altruistic and humanitarian goals and trying to set them in motion. It is thehouse of friends and community, because when we are powered by a real insight or vision weshare with all -- irrespective of differences.Eleventh HouseGemini is concerned with connections and communication of all kinds -- letters, wires,House Activity and Emphasis Page 31Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflaketelephones, voice, thoughts, writing, and mental processes in general. Gemini is the gadfly, thecommunicator, the gossip of the zodiac. Searching conversations, scientific inquiry, research,and so on belong here. Gemini energy is unattached, independent, and inquisitive.GeminiTwelfth House: Sacrifice, Psychology, AcceptanceThe 12th house is about all that we go through in order to make our dreams into reality andmanifest them in the world around us. It covers what we are willing to put up with, thesacrifices we will make in order to bring across what is really important. This is connected toprisons, institutions, betrayal, self-undoing, and the like, because it is here that we must chooseto take some possible abuse for the sake of the message we are carrying, or blow it all awaywith a negative reaction.Twelfth HouseCancer is the mother of the zodiac, always making a home, protecting and providing forothers. A sensitive sign where feelings and real experience count more than cold logic. Itdoesn't get any more physical and emotional than here. This sign has a sense of substance, ahome base or foundation. Cancer energy is always limiting, bringing us down to Earth,grounding our every thought in experience, in substance.CancerPsychology -- in particular group work -- is one area that you can always look to for supportand encouragement. You may find yourself counseling or ministering to others, helping them tounderstand and accept their lives.Moon in Twelfth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 32EllynlvxSwampys KnowflakeLMT: 19:04:55UT: 00:27:20>UT-LMT: 05:22:25ST: 03h29m11sRAMC: 052Ò18'DeltaT: 65.28"Local Apparent Time: 18:52:15Equation of Time: 12m40sPlanetary Hour: Venus (¤)02nd Hour of Mercury-NightSunrise (aprox.): 07:16 ESTSunset (aprox.): 17:54 ESTMoon in 02nd QuarterGibbous Moon Type¢/¡ Angle: 173Ò03'¡'s Motion: +13Ò49'13"Moon is FastJulian Day: 2449379.51898Obliq.

Also included are positive and negative (odd oreven) signs. Generally a nice, even distribution is favored, but a preponderance or a lack of any oneflavors a chart in a particular fashion.Throughout, lack of any element will find the native seeking out those who have extra of the same tomake up for it. Those who lack water tend to be attracted to very emotionally sensitive types, for instance,which can seem a strange contradiction, since they don't seem to belong together or communicate well.Similarly, airless types may seek more professorial companions to explain things they don't know andprobably won't understand, anyway. The fireless are often attracted to religion and find themselvesstudying the sermon which everyone else knew to ignore in favor of the choir. Earthless are the leastconcerned about making up for their lack, and tend to move blissfully ahead, oblivious to their risks --possibly because they either succeed wildly against the odds, or perish without further ado because ofthem.Elemental BalancesElemental BalanceFire0Water3¡ ¦ ªEarth3¥ ¨ ©Air4¢ £ ¤ §Fire:This element concerns inspiration and change, and lots of it makes forgood orators, preachers, singers, motivators, or anything that setspeople on fire and elevates the spirit.

A total lack of earth makes for a people who can be extremerisk takers because they don't really know better. They go whereangels fear to tread, and those same angels bear them up lest theydash their foot upon a stone -- on a really good day, that is.Air:This enables thought and communication, the intellectual side of things.A lot of air makes for a rather cerebral type, whereas lack of air meansthat explaining things may be meaningless. Results, not talk, gut-levelor emotional evaluation may take precedence over logic and careful,explainable planning.Water:This is all about the ability to sense and communicate feelings, and lotsof water makes for emotional types. Lack of water tends to lead toemotional cluelessness, a problem of not being about to pick up theusual social cues and unconscious gestures, leading to embarrassmentor faux pas without intending or expecting it.Chart Balances: Swampys Knowflake Page 2Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307Modal BalancesModal BalanceCard4¡ ¥ ¨ ©Fixed6¢ £ ¤ ¦ § ªMut.0Cardinal:Lots of this makes for a very assertive personality, someone who stepsinto the breach even if, perhaps, there isn't one.

He was awriter and editor for the two largest astrological magazines of the time. His two books, HeavenKnows What and Astrology for the Millions , were the first astrological books to become bestsellers and even today, over fifty years later, they remain among the best introductions to thesubject of astrology.The astrological interpretations found in Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millionswere unique, fresh, and simple. Llewellyn George, the prominent astrologer of the time, remarkedthat Lewi's interpretations must be intuitive because they were unlike any that had been writtenbefore him. Today these interpretations remain energetic and forceful and, though some referencesare now dated, Lewi's text still provides some of the clearest insights found anywhere in theliterature of astrology.Lewi was determined to make astrology more accessible to the average person, but whilepopularizing 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 hisinterpretations to the information found there. Lewi would have made good use of the computer, somuch in his books seem to anticipate them. In his writing he tried to emulate the interpretationprocess by using a computerless version of artificial intelligence: the meaning of a planet in a signdoesn't stand alone but is modified by the other aspects found in your chart. Many of his commentsdepend on a combination of factors and for this reason you will sometimes find that he hassomething different to say about an aspect in your chart than he does for the same aspect in yourfriend's chart.This report calculates your chart for you and then collects all of Lewi's comments strictlyaccording to the astrological factors found there. The text contained here is valid even for thosewho don't know their time of birth - Lewi focused on those factors that are in effect throughout thebirthday. The only exception to this is the case of the Moon which can move between 12 and 14degrees in a day, so if the positions were calculated for noon then the Moon could be as much as 6or 7 degrees different and possibly even change signs. If you don't know your time and the textsthat involve the Moon seem unlikely, you may wish to compare reports done for the beginning andthe 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 moresatisfying and fulfilling life. Astrology offers indications and pointers - and sometimes insights - tosituations that you find in life. It doesn’t tell you what to do about them, but if it offers you a betterunderstanding of the situation, then you are in a better position to decide for yourself what to do. Toquote Grant Lewi:"It is not limitations that eats out the heart, but inaction, the knowledge of powers not used, thesense of having failed to develop to the utmost. The overcoming of fate is not the overcoming ofIntroduction Page 3Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakelimitations: that is impossible. It is the exercise of free will, the assertion of the full self, expandingto its utmost with the tools at hand, in the circumstances that are set. Astrology, through theinterpretation of the horoscope, assists men to the achievement of their maximum by indicating tothem 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 BirthYour horoscope of birth is the blueprint of your personality and character as indicated by theposition of the Sun, the Moon and the eight planets on the date of your birth. This section isdevoted 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 Sunand Moon. No planet will ever cause you to act counter to the testimony of the Sun and Moon intheir 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 areyour character, your basic nature, which the planets will help or hinder but cannot materiallychange.According to the sign position of your Sun, one planet will be more important than the othersand should probably be read first. Your Sun is in Aquarius and your dominant planet is Saturn (andUranus). Not only the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also theattribute 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 aworking unit depends on your keeping this in mind, which will enable you to weld all the readingsinto a unified and significant whole.Sun in Aquarius and Moon in Cancer(You belong to the positive or executive group.)You are an ultra-social person, needful of companionship and very sensitive, both in your ownfeelings and perceptions and with regard to the feelings of others. You have an almost uncannyfaculty for responding to other people, with the result that you are extremely popular. You probablyhave unusual hereditary endowments and position, but this doesn't prevent you from endearingyourself to those in all walks of life. For there's a touch of the true democrat here that all thesheltering in the world cannot down. Servants love you and you do much to deserve their love. Inworldly matters this quality has a good commercial value; you are able to be yourself withoutequivocation and at the same time to make people like you and pay you well. Thus, whether youare in business, politics, or the arts, you appeal to a wide circle. You are tactful in speech andwriting and able to calculate nicely the effect of what you say. Your impulses and intuitions bearHoroscope of Birth Page 4Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakethe. stamp of practical good sense, although your ideas are likely to be visionary. You feel with fargreater accuracy than you think; your creations have emotional rather than intellectual appeal. Thisdoesn't mean that you haven't a good mind, for your mind is quick, facile, penetrating, with a touchof the inspirational; but it does mean that your emotions are capable of running away with yourintellect and of leading you into paths that are not rationally defensible. You are a romantic, and nomatter in what walk of life or occupation you may be found, a personal adventurous feelingunderlies all that you say or do or think.You rise to considerable influence. You have a powerful personality bound to be recognizedand appreciated.SunThe Sun indicates the appearance you will present before the world and the psychological biaswhich will dominate your actions. What you seem, and why, are told in the reading for your Sun. Inmany 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 departvery far from the basic solar pattern. For this reason a whole literature and a whole business havegrown up around Sun-sign astrology; and many people exist who think there is nothing more to thehoroscope than knowing what "sign you were born in" and what the Sun in that sign means. This isa mistake, as you will discover when you have read the influence of the other bodies. Butthroughout your reading, keep in mind always the basic influence of the Sun, and remember that allother influences must be interpreted in terms of it, especially in so far as other influences play avisible role in your life. You may think, dream, imagine, hope to be a thousand things, according toyour Moon and your other planets, but the Sun is what you are, and to be your best self in terms ofyour Sun is to cause your energies to work along the path in which they will have maximum helpfrom planetary vibrations.Sun in Aquarius"God must have loved the common people; he made so many ofthem.""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 thewarm courage of national unity; with the clear consciousness ofseeking old and precious moral values; with the keen satisfaction thatcomes 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, January30, 1882.Horoscope of Birth Page 5Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeThe motivating force behind Aquarius is some form of the gregarious, or herd, instinct. He likesfolks. He is sociable. In a higher manifestation, he is social. In a lower manifestation, he thinks thatthe world - the folks - owe him a living. Any way you look at the Aquarian, and whatever Aquarianyou look at, you will find folks at the censor of his attitude. Either he depends on them or theydepend on him. The sign can go either way. Whether he is a social reformer, or a hobo, people willbe around him; he will be holding them up, or they will be holding him up. He thinks himself agreat 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, solvetheir problems, give his life for theirs in a figurative or literal sense. Or he may fritter away his timein 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 thesocial professions: invention, medicine, law, politics, architecture, literature, science, music or artwith 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 martyrsand benefactors of the human race. Aquarius is generally misunderstood even when he hasachieved 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, ifindependent, and resentful of intrusion on his private studies, which may irk the spouse becausethey never seem to produce anything except big electric light bills. Aquarius the social or sociablecan be anything or nothing, but the one thing he will almost never be is lonesome. He may think hisspirit yearns for understanding, but he will never be far from someone to listen while he attempts toexplain himself.Following are the aspects to your Sun. In a general way, the trines and sextiles to your Sunmake 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 ofwhether the Sun receives squares or trines, along with the conjunction. Similarly, squares and trinesto the Sun together bring success through work and perseverance, and luck develops in proportionto the work done and the effort extended.Sun Conjunct Venus Orb: 02°23'You are popular, a favorite with the other sex, with a robust magnetism and fire to yourpersonality that comes from high good spirits, and a sort of all-pervading optimism and goodfellowship. In a woman's horoscope this will give you more than your share of admirers, and theywill have good financial and social backgrounds; girls with this position generally marry abovetheir station without sacrificing love. Women under this aspect frequently trip to the altar with theboss or his son. In a man's horoscope you are a favorite with women, lucky in love and in otherthings too; loyal, devoted, and ardent, the prototype of the Great Lover. Idealism lends a curiousglamour 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 idealisticthan that - the appeal of a Janet Gaynor rather than of a Mae West. You love nice things and havean exquisite, as well as a lavish, taste. In both emotional and material matters this is a highlyintensifying influence and will heighten and tend to improve any other aspects to the Sun or toVenus.Horoscope of Birth Page 6Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeSun Conjunct Mars Orb: 07°44'Little boys and girls with this aspect are generally known as "fresh kids" and more likely thannot they never get over it. You are marked by a certain audacity - you speak out your mind at thedrop of a hat - and not very tactfully either. You don't know the meaning of the word fear, either ina physical or a mental sense. You will attack a roaring lion bare-handed, or endeavor to debate alegal point with a Supreme Court justice - all with the same aggressive assurance in your ownability. This is admirable, but it isn't always good sense. You come in for a good many trimmingsboth verbal and otherwise, through an unwise selection of opponents, and throughout life you haveto be careful of trying to push over stone walls with your head. You're the kid who wouldn't hollerUncle no matter how your arm was being twisted.With Sun square Jupiter these traits areemphasized dangerously so that quarrels and enmities beset you. With Mercury conjunct Saturn thedangers of your aggressiveness are much moderated, and self-confidence and courage bring successthrough your own efforts. In any case, you will have to curb aggressiveness which can range frommere cockiness to downright ego mania. You have abundant energies both mental and physical. Itis 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 shouldremember when you are tempted to do or say something bold that "fools rush in where angels fearto tread." Your vigorous personality and quick mind will carry you far when you have learned toovercome the quirks of your own nature. In a woman's horoscope this generally brings troublethrough men. If you marry a girl with this aspect prepare to let her rule the roost.Sun Square Jupiter Orb: 06°13'You are full of vitality, good spirits, and fun. You are likely to waste - your energies and yourmoney in having a good time, for this is a happy-go-lucky position and adds a lift and verve even toa pretty sober nature. It generally accompanies comfortable worldly status and keeps bringing in theshekels, even if you manage to get rid of them pretty quickly. You have a great deal of pride. Socialprestige is important to you and you feed your vanity on it. You are still genial and humane andwill gladly help people in distress, for a goodly amount of charity accompanies this aspect. Youlove food and drink and tend to overindulge. You are lavish with your expenditures not only ofmoney, 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, butthrough 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 yourfortunes, will have an effect on your health through blood disorders, gout, diabetes, or one of theailments that goes with excess.Sun Sextile Pluto Orb: 09°06'Your desire to live life to the fullest helps you to learn easily and to make any changesnecessary to achieve your ends, which are likely to bring advancement both to you and thosearound you. Your magnetism helps to attract the people and circumstances that you need tosucceed, building your self-confidence and ensuring that you will make a personal mark oneverything you touch or do. Your desire is to make an impression through your profession, whichshould benefit from your strong leadership abilities. You can become a bridge-builder, unifyingothers in an effort to make substantial changes in their environment.Horoscope of Birth Page 7Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeMoonWhile the Sun's position by sign determines what motives and urges dominate your life as itmeets the naked eye, the sign position of the Moon tells the desire of your heart which may or maynot be expressed or realized in your life. When you "know what you mean but you can't say it," it isyour Moon that knows it and your Sun that can't say it. "Thoughts that do often lie too deep fortears" are the thoughts of your Moon's nature. The wordless ecstasy, the mute sorrow, the secretdream, the esoteric picture of yourself that you can't get across to the world, or which the worlddoesn't comprehend or value - these are the products of the Moon in your horoscope. When you aremisunderstood, it is your Moon nature, expressed imperfectly through the Sun sign, that you feel isbetrayed. When you know what you ought to do, but can't find the right way to do it, it is yourMoon that knows and your Sun that refuses to react in harmony. Also, when you "don't know why Isaid that," it was your Moon expressing despite your Sun (if you are innerly satisfied with theinvoluntary speech), or the Sun expressing against the will of the Moon (if you are displeased withwhat has slipped out). Things you know without thought - intuitions, hunches, instincts - are theproducts of the Moon. Modes of expression that you feel are truly your deepest self belong to theMoon: art, letters, creative work of any kind; sometimes love; sometimes business. Whatever youfeel 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 CancerYou take yourself very seriously, as a person to be reckoned with. You feel that you understandothers and that you deserve to be understood yourself; yet you frequently feel misunderstood.Things are very clear to you; your intuitions are powerful, and whether right or wrong, theyconvince you utterly and are likely to control your actions. Sometimes your hunches are away offthe track, especially if emotions are involved. You regard your inner nature as something precious,to be guarded from the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune," and are all too likely to think theslings and arrows are aimed at you when no one else in the world is thinking about you. You exudea desire to be understood, to be loved - also, to understand, and to love, if you have objectified yourapproach, which you must do if you are to be happy or successful. Your tendency is to withdraw, tomeditate, and meditation often turns to brooding, brooding to depression. Activate your sympathiesby becoming interested in others. Deserve their understanding by acting so that they can understandwith approval. Forget yourself, your emotions, your reactions; harness your instincts to otherpeople's problems or to creative work in business, science or the arts. To use, to become, to prove,to love must replace in your nature the deep tendency to be content with to have, to be, to know, toexpect. No doors are closed to you when you have turned your understanding outward to the world- and no doors are open to you when you turn it exclusively inward. Know your self first, throughpain and struggle if necessary, and once you know it, don't brood about it; get to know somethingelse.Following are the aspects to your Moon. Look to the trines and sextiles to give you charm andclear-thinking; and to the squares and oppositions to provide you with concentration and drivingforce.Horoscope of Birth Page 8Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeMoon Opposite Sun Orb: 06°57'The square aspect between the Sun and Moon energizes the mentality giving drive, force, andquickness to the mind, and tends to objectify the desires (unless Sun is in Aries and Moon in Libra,Sun in Pisces and Moon in Virgo). It adds quickness and perceptive power to whatever otherintellectual gifts are indicated, and warns of letting the mind run ahead of the body and exhaust it.Frequently this indicates some difficulty between the parents around the time of your birth—personal or financial tension in the family or in the family environment. An environmental orhereditary bias is set up giving one of those psychological quirks which makes for success. Rapidmental development follows, and success through ability to objectify and depersonalize your life bymental processes.Moon Opposite Venus Orb: 09°19'This aspect doesn't make you very sociable and is likely to impair popularity by making youscornful of the things that have to be done to achieve it. Your attitude is that you just won't bebothered - if they want you, let them come for you. You have to learn to go out of your way morefor people. The truth of the matter is that you are sensitive, have a sort of inferiority complex aboutyour popularity, and dread the idea of pushing yourself forward, with the result that periodically,through sheer discouragement, you push yourself in the wrong way and at the wrong time. Lookaround you at the people who are well liked and try to take a leaf from their book. This is a difficultaspect for material matters, for you spend money foolishly, and have to cultivate good businesssense. You are a real spendthrift at heart; getting rid of money amounts to a genius with you. Youare emotionally temperamental and can weep buckets when you are hurt, or when you realizeyou've hurt someone else; for you are gentle, and wouldn't willfully hurt anyone. But for all that,you do.Moon Opposite Mars Orb: 00°47'You started out in life like a house afire - all energy and intelligence and even brilliance, forthis is the aspect of the child who is thought to be a genius in his early and formative years. Yourmind was quick, apt, facile, expressive, and able to absorb and give back knowledge readily, so thatyou were the delight of your parents and teachers, giving promise of great achievement in later life.In many ways you were extraordinarily precocious throughout youth; and at any time in life youpossess an exceptional mentality and great possibilities. Your mind is analytic and scientific ratherthan artistic and creative; and although the creative urge is powerful, the creative force is notusually present with this configuration. Anything that requires knowledge, factual application,technical ease, or critical insight, is your forte, and in these fields you can go far. As a scientist,mathematician, critic, or technician, your mind is invaluable, and the independence and originalityof your thought processes enable you to forge to the front. There is with this aspect some dangerthat after the first glow and flush of youth is past, the great urge to better and improve yourself willin some subtle and inexplicable way be dissipated and lost. A sort of mental inertia may settle overyou in which accomplishment becomes difficult. It requires a tremendous amount of will power tobring the promise of this aspect to fruition. There is a tendency to relax internally, with an intimateknowledge of your own worth as your pillow, and forget that no worth is worth anything if it is notmade apparent in the world as it is. You can overcome this inertia. This is a position also of greatnervous tension, of the sort which is classically supposed to accompany genius. You may beHoroscope of Birth Page 9Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflaketempted to seek escape from this tension in a variety of artificial anodynes - either in simpledaydreaming and imagining what you might be or what you have been or what you are going to be;or in the more concrete escapes, which are also the more dangerous escapes. Liquor or alcohol inany form is poison to you, either to your digestive tract, or to your psychic, mental, and nervousstate. Similarly, you should avoid the use of any drug or soporific stronger, let us say, than aspirin,and seek to find the solution to your tensions in more constructive mediums. You should practicerelaxation deliberately. Get plenty of sleep, and in every way try to cut down the stress of yourexistence, both internal and external. You have tremendous possibilities - perhaps even genius - andyou owe it to yourself and the world to make the most of them. You have an extraordinary mind,capable of any heights of achievement. You are a genius.Moon Opposite Uranus Orb: 06°47'You have had a high temper in your day, and if you've controlled it the credit goes to your goodsense. You are rebellious, headstrong, abrupt in speech, quick on the draw - a sort of hair-triggerpersonality, full of fire and dash that need the control of a vigorous intellect. A sort of perpetualconfusion hangs over you, and you have a hard time getting the straight of your own nature. This isone of the marks of the advanced thinker, the Bohemian who is a law unto himself and must make aconscious 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 ironedout. A great individualist, you none the less believe that society has duties to is members, that theirindividuality may be able to thrive the better. You are ardent in your loves, idealistic and impulsiveand capable of deep loyalties through which, however, you can see the faults of the beloved - andsay so in no uncertain terms. Tact is something you have to learn, for your uncompromisingtruthfulness and honesty make tact seem wasted time to you. You are sensitive of the feelings ofothers, and once your high-spiritedness is reined you are the most sympathetic and understandingof friends.Moon Opposite Neptune Orb: 08°27'This impairs the creative gifts, and your manner of thought and expression, intruding anunrealistic 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 bemarvelous - if you or anyone else could make them happen. This adds a sort of naive charm to yournature. You can believe in fairies, Santa Claus and ghosts, just as others can believe in HerbertHoover, and your perpetual love for the mystic will intrigue those who love the innocent, thechildish, the unspoiled. But all this doesn't help you much in the world of affairs, and an impracticalapproach to many things will stand in the way of your progress until such a time as you get yourfeet on the ground and hitch your wagon to a fence post.Moon Trine Pluto Orb: 02°09'Quality, not quantity, is the hallmark of your emotional make-up. You like having a few closefriends rather than spreading your feelings and loyalties thinly over a wide variety of people. Youare apt to be fair in your judgments of others, evaluating inner qualities rather than superficial traits.Warmth, loyalty and devotion mark your emotional reactions. You are protective of loved onesHoroscope of Birth Page 10Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakewithout smothering them.MercuryMercury is the sense-impression antennae of your horoscope. His position by sign indicatesyour reactions to sights, sounds, odors, tastes and touch impressions, affording a key to the attitudeyou have toward the physical world around you. Mercury is the messenger through which yourphysical body and brain (the Sun) and your inner nature (the Moon) are kept in contact with theouter world, which will appear to you according to the index of Mercury's position by sign in thehoroscope.Mercury in AquariusAll your senses are keen, alert, strong and sensitive. There is a robustness about yourcontemplation of the real world that is not injured by a very keen sense of beauty. Your greatability is to see beauty in things without finding it necessary to deny their reality. Conversely, youmake all useful things as beautiful as possible and thus believe in the utility of art and the art ofutility. Nothing real is likely to be offensive to you if it has a use; you will smell the odors of apigsty less than others because you are thinking of bacon rather than of filth. But on the other hand,the beauty of an army will leave you cold because you will shudder at the slaughter. Your sensereactions are conditioned by a rugged and realistic approach to experience that causes you to regardeverything you see, hear and touch in the light of your appraisal of its utilitarian and artistic merits,and little reaches you through the senses without passing through this nicely balanced court ofvalues.Mercury Square Jupiter Orb: 08°49'You love to spin yarns - harmless yarns, to be sure, but highly exaggerated and colored; nothingever loses any fat in the telling when you tell it. Though you worship educated and intellectualpeople, your own mind is not highly trained. You are capable of error in judgment throughmisconception of the facts, misinterpretation of the facts, exaggerated notions, or just plainignorance. You are likely to barge ahead in a plan or an idea without any least notion of theunderlying necessities of the situation. You aren't easy to persuade that you are wrong, for evenwhen faced with evidence, you have a way of sticking to your guns though your ammunition isgone.Mercury Conjunct Saturn Orb: 07°54'You have a deep, precise, and above all serious mental outlook, ranging from the profound tothe melancholy but never frivolous or light. Knowledge is sacred to you. The Law is the Law. Youstick by the Code as you understand it. With your Mercury square Jupiter the sobriety of this aspectis preserved; you are still profound and deep-running enough but the depth may turn to trickery inmental processes and the moral sense be somewhat upset. You are an impressive speaker andlogician, whether you're fighting on the side of the angels or against them. A certain power andauthority, amounting almost to pompousness, attaches to your manner of speech. You don't merelysay things, you state them; and this has its effect on your listeners, who will have to have strongHoroscope of Birth Page 11Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakewills not to fall in line with your subtle reasoning. You can outguess most people, and, beingsuspicious, are rarely fooled. You have it in you to bamboozle the world. Nobody is ever going tosell you any gold bricks or phony oil stock.Mercury Square Pluto Orb: 05°53'You tend to be dogmatic, stubbornly resisting change and other people's ideas. In your earlyyears, you may have rebelled against the discipline of learning; now, you may consider yourselfslow or stupid, when your only problems are a lack of openness to new ideas and a lack ofconcentration. Once you apply your mind to the subjects that are important to you, you can becomea self-made person. You should think before you speak, since you can put people off with anunintentional brusqueness. Intentional sharpness or sarcasm when angry can lose you the supportyou've worked hard to gain. Be as sensitive to other people's feelings as you are to your own. Oneof the major lessons you must learn is how to accept constructive criticism.VenusVenus is the emotional antenna of your horoscope. Through Venus, impressions come to youfrom the outer world because of which you feel and react emotionally. The position of Venus bysign at the time of your birth gives the key to your attitude toward these emotional experiences. AsMercury is the messenger linking sense impressions (sight, smell, etc.) to the basic nature of yourSun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same signwith your Sun; emotions gain importance in your life, having a direct bearing on your actions andgenerally causing you to put your best foot forward. Venus is in the same sign with Mercury,emotion impressions and sense impressions work together; you tend to idealize the world of thesenses and to sensualize the world of the emotions, to interpret emotionally what you see and hear,and perhaps through this to become proficient in one of the arts.Venus in AquariusYour emotional responses are frank and heartfelt, even when they are directed towardgeneralizations and groups, as they often are, or toward art in some form. Your emotions serve youraesthetic sense; you are capable of a detached and spiritual form of personal love which you relateto beauty rather than to passion. You worship beauty concretely and in the abstract; and can wantnothing 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 thoughtimmodest. You are sensuous, but not sensual; your emotions feed on the stimuli of eye, ear and theolfactory senses; less on touch. You belong to the perpetually pure of heart, and because of thisyour emotional responses to individuals are high-minded and beautiful in the extreme, and can betransmuted into the pure gold of universalized love by the alchemy of your spiritual strength.Venus Square Jupiter Orb: 03°50'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 offunds and spend freely for love or for pleasure. If you are a man gold-diggers find you easy prey;Horoscope of Birth Page 12Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeand 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.MarsMars is the energy principle in the horoscope. His position by sign indicates the channels intowhich energy will naturally flow, and the uses to which energy will most easily be directed. It is theplanet 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 theemotional impressions of Venus.Mars in CapricornYou have practical control over your energies, which normally express themselves in a way thatpromotes your highest and most worldly aspirations. Controlled actions and speech come naturallyto you; your vitality works well in the harness of the world as it is, and you can master details aswell as the executive functions. You are tactful in a proud sort of way: you say the right thingwithout yielding your dignity or compromising with the truth as you see it. You are a born leader,having the first requisites of leadership: control of yourself and ability to take orders. This is one ofthe most favorable positions of Mars for worldly success, for you will rarely do anything thatinterferes with your security, or with security's broader manifestation, desire for power; and in oneway or another, authority will accumulate in your hands if you don't block the free flow of yourvitality with too much self confidence. You can afford to "sit loose in the saddle of fate" in theassurance that your mount will carry you where you want to go, and you should respect the steedby sparing whip and spur.Mars Conjunct Uranus Orb: 06°00'You have a strong personality and are a little cold and impersonal. You are mental rather thanemotional in your bias toward life; capable, and quick in your perceptions. You are best whenworking in impersonal matters for your emotions are inaccurate and unreliable and (as the palmistssay) you should let the head rule the heart. This makes good leaders, teachers, and governmentofficials. Personal considerations don't interfere with what you have to do. You can be hard andeven cruel if it suits your purposes. While you can be kind in theory and to groups, you are capableof being unkind in personal dealings and of hurting those who love you. A sort of rigidity pervadesyour emotions, and you have difficulty in unbending. There is something a little forbidding aboutyou. You are especially prone to have a periodically high temper. Health is a problem.Mars Conjunct Neptune Orb: 07°40'The most powerful magnetic aspect in the horoscope. You have poise, charm, ability, powerover people - and a determination to get ahead in the world that rarely fails to succeed. Your aimsare definite, and your physical, mental, and intuitive powers work in unison to help you. You havea superstitious belief in many things including your own powers, and something of the magicianhovers about you. Doors open at your word, men obey you, and the good things of the world cometo you. You live up to the hilt of your possibilities and appear to have a guardian angel at your side,Horoscope of Birth Page 13Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeholding you to your task and encouraging you. You are selfish and self-centered, but you thinkthese are virtues. You are capable of being pretty ruthless in the pursuit of what you are after. Youwill go very far; with luck on your side you make or find opportunities readily. There is muchdifficulty through sex matters. This is a powerful position to have and, with any degree of will atall, it will give you something of the power over the world that the Magic Lamp gave to Aladdin.Mars Sextile Pluto Orb: 01°22'You work like a detective or researcher, taking an idea or project and pursuing it until yourunderstanding has penetrated to its core. You may not react quickly and there are times when youdon't act at all; what is important to you is effectiveness and efficiency. If anyone can find theshortest distance between two points, it is you. This isn't an index of laziness; it is a measure ofyour desire not to waste time, energy or resources.JupiterJupiter is the feeler you have out in the world for opportunity. Through it the chances of alifetime are passed along for consideration according to the basic nature of Sun and Moon. Jupiter'ssign position indicates the places in which you will look for opportunity, the uses to which youwish to put it, and the capacity you have to react to and profit by it. Jupiter is ordinarily, anderroneously, called the Planet of Luck. It is "luck" in so far as it is the index of opportunity; butyour luck depends less on what comes to you (Jupiter) than on what you do with it (the totalpersonality). Opportunity appeals to you along lines laid down by your Jupiter.Jupiter in ScorpioYou relate opportunity to deep personal needs, and are generally successful because there is noinharmony between the inner nature and what the outer world makes important. The lens of thespirit eliminates what would make unhappiness and follows instinctively what satisfies. This is agood position for acquiring and spending money; you give a sort of magical effect of being theright man (or woman) for the job that is open, if the job happens to appeal to you; and you proceedto make it your own in a curiously effective way. All the primary instincts merge in your approachto work and give you a high degree of efficiency. When you're where you want to be, you workeasily, authoritatively, gaining the respect of superiors and subordinates. Opportunity flows to younaturally; and an inherent wisdom enables you to select your right niche. You're not likely to be asquare peg in a round hole; and you are very likely to be successful in whatever you put your mindon.Jupiter Sextile Neptune Orb: 08°24'This adds to the spiritual insight, increasing any latent intuitive faculties and enabling you togive practical application to your hunches. Aids creative artists by adding charm and facility totheir expression and by making it salable. Helps business men by enabling them to follow theirhunches to good advantage. Aids all those who deal with people (professional men, politicians) byadding a peculiar magnetism to the personality and making them appear jovial, humanitarian, andcharitable.Horoscope of Birth Page 14Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeSaturnSaturn 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 horoscopeof birth. With Saturn in the same sign as Sun, defense predominates, and there is danger ofintroversion. The further Saturn is from Sun, Moon and Ascendant, the better for objectivity andextroversion. Saturn is in the same sign with your Mercury, you have profound and serious reactionto sense impressions; this position generally accompanies a deep and efficient mind. Saturn is in thesame sign with your Venus, your defensive attitude toward emotional experience makes forapparent coolness in low, and difficulty through the emotions and human relations; you areconservative in finance, and generally "lucky-in-cards-unlucky-in-love".Saturn in AquariusYou seek self-justification and acclaim and material success very much as Saturn in Capricorn,but aren't likely to be so hard boiled about it. Saturn in Aquarius wants fame, recognition andpower, but is more concerned with keeping the good opinion of other people in getting it and willrarely if ever hurt them. This position adds gentleness and strength to any chart: the ego requiresthe approval of society for its own justification - requires the good opinion of men more than theirobedience, and is willing to trade respect for love. The social urge in this way is strong, and Saturnin Aquarius will spend a lot of time justifying its transgressions (which may be numerous) andmaking explanations and excuses for shortcomings. Since society is important to you, you tend toassume that you are important to society, and if your whole chart is very passive, you may come tothink that it owes you a living and that your existence is best justified when you are collectingunearned increment. This is an inversion of the urge to serve society which is the bestSaturn-in-Aquarius type of self-vindication. If this goes into reverse, you're vindicated when youenable society to demonstrate its goodness with you as the recipient. To cultivate the social urgeson their positive side, to seek the approval of men for progressive and constructive works, to acceptresponsibility to society as your true means of self-justification, is to live up to the best of thisidealistic position of Saturn.Saturn Square Pluto Orb: 02°02'You may feel that the burdens of the world rest on your weary and fragile shoulders. With thispessimistic attitude, you can identify opportunities as obstacles and thus exaggerate the slightlytroublesome things that do happen to you. This view restricts your ability to achieve yourambitions. A refusal to accept responsibilities works against long-range happiness and success. Fora winning attitude, try to see that everyone has obligations to live up to, not just you. Also, learn towork more willingly with other people.UranusUranus in a general way relates to the neuro-mentality, creative originality or individuality, andhis position by sign in the horoscope tells the direction along which you will seek to express yourmost characteristic self in creative and original effort. With Uranus in the same sign with Mars,Horoscope of Birth Page 15Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeUranus indicates high speed activity, love of swift motion and perhaps of danger.Uranus in CapricornCapricorn is the so-called World sign and it is natural that the genius Uranus therein shouldproduce a generation that would upset old traditions. With this position, you are likely to feel thatyou are giving expression to your truest genius in rebellion against things as they are, or as theywere, for you still remember the revolt against conventions that occupied your youth, when to bepart of the general iconoclasm of the day was considered personally daring. Mass individualism isthe product of Uranus in Capricorn. To progress from the conventional unconventionality to trulyfinding yourself and your individual expression has been quite a task. When you find it, you willdiscover that your great contribution must be along lines of social progress, probably quiteconservative 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°40'Children born with this conjunction are natural mind readers, and they also seem to know whatwill happen. It is difficult to give them a surprise birthday party, as they somehow know thatsomething is up. It is important to support the development of these powers, as they can languishand cause trouble if misunderstood. Travel is a given with this aspect.Uranus Sextile Pluto Orb: 04°38'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 tocultivate a more constructive outlet for your energies than you naturally have. Some energizingfactor within the horoscope - squares in general but, more importantly, squares from Mars - will beneeded if you are to actualize your creative potential. Otherwise, you are too likely to coast throughwith what comes easiest for you.NeptuneNeptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality,indicating what you take deeply for granted in life. With Neptune in the same sign with Mars, thereis energy and intuition that work together to make mastery of life - one of the signs of havingangels (or devils) on your side.Neptune in CapricornThis 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 apenchant for fuzzy-headed schemes (the motives of which are always mixed). A barrage ofleveraged buy-outs has sent the corporate world into a dither, and there is generally an attraction toconspiring against institution, fraudulently if necessary. There is heightened perception ofopportunity, and the wherewithal to take advantage of it. Neptune always has a strong Pisces side,Horoscope of Birth Page 16Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeregardless what sign it is in, and connotes integration of the life function, a translation ofconsciousness from what is possible to what is real. Pisces is also the sign of boundaries. All tooeasily, with Neptune in Capricorn, you lose yourself in pursuit of opportunity. There is a naggingwarning not to sell out or bargain with alien needs. You evince a subtle martyrdom to massprerogatives. Too easily you may be tempted by peers to veer from your course. Neptune inCapricorn warns against a lack of self determination which challenges all people embarked on thequest of self-knowledge. Be careful you don't end up with agendas and priorities you don'tunderstand, much less can't execute. Regularly assess the nature of your needs. To what extent haveyou taken on dependencies or distasteful customs, having let your convictions be manipulated bythe 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. Youcompare yourself to others: athletes who think they cannot compete without steroids, teachers wholoath learning because they cannot admit any capacity for error. There is a battle of learning versussuppression. Consider the People's insurrections against repressive government throughout theworld 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 ofNeptune in Capricorn relative to these events: entrepreneurs buying up the tumbled Berlin Wall andselling it as souvenirs at $10/pound in retail stores (complete with certificate of departure). Therewere face offs between the ruthless: pragmatism and ambition of narrow-visioned political entitiesand every individual's genuine need and right for freedom. The Chinese students became Neptunein 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 atrocitieswith 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 seemthat compassion would mitigate such Darwinian mechanics, beware how quickly kindness isdiffused by the paralyzing loneliness which results from seeking salvation in otherness.Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 06°18'The ideas that were instilled in you by your parents, church and society will undergo changesthroughout your life until your religious and philosophical views are distinctly your own. This typeof creative adaptability makes you able to forgo selfish concerns and direct your efforts toward thebetterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible.PlutoPluto relates to the ability to let go of things, to get rid of irrelevant prejudices and outdatedhabit patterns. It relates to subconscious feelings, inner urges and repressed emotions. A strongPluto gives the ability to see the hidden side of life, and thus bestows power on the native - powerwhich can be used for good or ill. In the same sign as Jupiter, Pluto produces an inquisitive naturewith a desire to understand the hidden side of life.Horoscope of Birth Page 17Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakePluto in ScorpioAstrologers 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 dohave 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 Perihelionbetween the Sun and Pluto in September of 1989, or its closest contact to that Planet, during whichtime 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 alarmingspread 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 theimplications of what we still welcome as more open attitudes about sex. Sexual violence and rapehave also come to the fore. Hardly a day goes by when there's not some story, great or small, in thenewspaper. 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 sexualabuse within the church. Also notice, on a more positive note, people's increasing interest indiscovering the common thread in their fellow human beings and nurturing it for the better ratherthan, like their ancestors, using it for a noose. We are challenged to be more responsible toward thewelfare of each other without loosing our respect for ourselves. A mixture of directness andcompassion is the subtle key. It is an alchemical process, whereby we find the right proportion ofallegiance and maverickness, producing wisdom.Horoscope of Birth Page 18Current TransitsThe current transits are calculated exactly for the date shown. Lewi wrote text only for theaspects that he considered to be the most significant and only those are shown in this report. Thedates 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 aspectseveral times in one year before it leaves that area of the zodiac and moves on. This is due to theplanet appearing to go backward or retrograde for a period of time and crossing and recrossing theaspect point. When this happens the effect of the aspect can be spread out over a considerable timeand in this report the aspect and text will be printed for each time it becomes exact, although thisseries of aspects represents only one pass through this phase of its cycle. Remember that eachtransiting 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 itbegins to move back towards the starting point, at the 270° point, or 90° away from the startingpoint, the planet is at its "upper square", and then it returns to the conjunction point where a newcycle is begun. Lewi will occasionally refer to these points in his text by name. In general alltransits, whether of a planet to its own place or of one planet to another, mark cycles of growthbeginning at the conjunction point, growing through the first square, fully grown at the oppositionpoint, beginning to recede at the second or upper square, and finally starting a new cycle as itreaches the conjunction point again.How long any aspect will be in effect is determined by the speed of the planet making theaspect (the first planet , i.e. Mars in Mars Opposite Sun). One Mars cycle is about two or two andone-half years and so a Mars aspect will last about 20 to 30 days. Jupiter takes about 12 years forits cycle and so its aspects could last around 4 months, while Saturn with a 29 year cycle will last 9months or even more if it turns retrograde. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all long range aspectsand usually represent a time of 2 or more years. While Saturn and the outer planets indicate longrange influences in your life, Mars aspects will identify important months and Jupiter will identifyimportant years. Not every occurrence of these will be of striking importance. But within a largerSaturn cycle or Uranus period of great importance, these briefer influences will be found to act asthe second or minute hand of the clock of destiny, as Saturn, or Uranus, or both, act as the hourhand.Jan 19, 2014 - Saturn Square MercuryThis aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study andthought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which workCurrent Transits Page 19Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeand self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no goodbecomes acute. Keeping your mind on things outside yourself helps. Study, reading and writing areexcellent, though creativeness and originality fail you. Don't worry must be your motto; also Facethe facts. Escapism leads into bad nervous tangles. This is a good aspect to have while in school orcollege, when opportunity for study is greatest and the "cold, cold world" is not yet a reality thatyou have to consider. Corning later when you're out in the "cold, cold world," it indicates a periodwhen you can return to the student state to good advantage, putting your mind on objective factrather than on emotional concerns. Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraintand efficiency.Jan 31, 2014 - Mars Square UranusThis transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But atone of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace anddirection 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 undisciplinedpersons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacksdue to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of theseperiods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable andprobably nothing to be proud of.Mar 28, 2014 - Mars Square UranusThis transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife.

In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of theseperiods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable andprobably nothing to be proud of.Jul 15, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct MoonYou feel new self-assurance and are able to solve, within yourself, important problems thathave troubled you. Little may change in the external world around you, but your attitude toward itchanges. You may not be able to control what happens to you, but you achieve new dominion overyour viewpoint and in this way become master of situations and of yourself. Good healthcontributes to good spirits and a general sense of well-being. Self-reliance and self-sufficiency areyour big assets here, through which you "find yourself" significant. Allow your eyes to turn inward;define aims and desires; discover what you want from the world, in the assurance that it is to befound less in things than in your approach to them. May accompany a real "conversion of spirit"based on swift insight into yourself, and may thus mark a point at which you turn away from falsevalues to true ones and start a new life, richer and happier because based on high evaluation ofessentials.Jul 24, 2014 - Mars Square MarsThis transit indicates a period of hard work and abundant energies, which causes no troubleunless major disruptive influences are in force. There is a slight tendency to talk too much, boastand be arrogant, but the swiftness of the pace generally carries you through without major trouble.Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rule the emotions.Jul 25, 2014 - Mars Square MoonFatigue 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 andtrouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance whichmay or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time withthis.Aug 7, 2014 - Mars Square SunDomestic matters are important. This transit frequently times a move from one house (or townor locality) to another, or some important decision in the private life. New starts work out if wellconsidered and unmotivated by temperament. Social activity is increased; you have lots of friendsaround you. This is a good time to begin new ventures for quick completion, ventures which have abearing on your longer-range plans. This is a good time to clean house, redecorate, etc. The home isCurrent Transits Page 21Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakelikely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead offigurative and quarrelsome.Aug 11, 2014 - Mars Square VenusSocial and romantic glamour leads to excesses, sometimes to strife, quarrels, separations. Minorloves and friendships break up, but important relations are merely strained; and indeed thisfrequently adds glamour to a deep love, intensifying its beauty. A break here, unless contributed toby some more important transit, is a sure index that the feeling wasn't very deep or importantanyway. Avoid excess spending and stay away from temptation if you're interested in sticking tothe conventions.Aug 16, 2014 - Jupiter Opposite SunNew contacts, new modes of expression, new work, new energies and ambitions tax mind andhealth. But you overflow with vitality and optimism and can carry quite a load if you take care ofyour health and refuse to indulge your weaknesses. Partners or associates provide excitement, andalso 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 innocentindulgences mount till they are far from innocent. Human relations are glamorous; be sure they arealso sound and not built on the quick sands of temperament and sensationalism. Be ready to graspopportunity and keep your head clear so that you won't waste the chances that crowd around you.Aug 18, 2014 - Mars Conjunct JupiterOpportunities abound, and your energies are up to them. Optimism runs high, and you can bemade to color, and perhaps prophesy, the life for a long time. Work is abundant and gratifying; youare 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 goodincome, which tends to make you openhanded and generous, perhaps to a fault. Keep your eyes andears open; some of the best forward pushes of your life will come in these periods whencircumstances combine to give you the rewards of work done in the past and to open up new doorsfor the future.Sep 1, 2014 - Mars Square MercuryQuick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. Thequick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur aboutevery six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lastinggrudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent.Sep 10, 2014 - Mars Conjunct PlutoThis transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervadesotherwise 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 ofredistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emergeCurrent Transits Page 22Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakefrom this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events askeynotes of respect for structure and self-care.Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and thetendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take timeto treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a moreservice-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, thiscould be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are thenasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble.Sep 15, 2014 - Jupiter Square JupiterThese periods fall halfway between Jupiter's conjunction with his own place and his oppositionto it and indicate minor shifts in emphasis in your work and life plan. Opportunities may becomemore numerous; or, as is the case most of the time, you will simply be busy with what you aredoing, and perhaps careless of money as a result. Financial status at these periods tends to remainfixed for about three years, and you should budget ahead according to the situation you findyourself in.Oct 13, 2014 - Saturn Square MercuryThis aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study andthought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which workand self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no goodbecomes acute. Keeping your mind on things outside yourself helps. Study, reading and writing areexcellent, though creativeness and originality fail you. Don't worry must be your motto; also Facethe facts. Escapism leads into bad nervous tangles. This is a good aspect to have while in school orcollege, when opportunity for study is greatest and the "cold, cold world" is not yet a reality thatyou have to consider. Corning later when you're out in the "cold, cold world," it indicates a periodwhen you can return to the student state to good advantage, putting your mind on objective factrather than on emotional concerns. Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraintand efficiency.Nov 23, 2014 - Mars Conjunct NeptuneSuper intuition gives you uncanny insight into motives and methods of other people, but notalways into your own. Practice self-analysis. You swiftly feel your creative power, of which youcan make good use. Beware sensationalism, sentimentality, self-indulgence; fight subconsciousurges, suppressed desires, and make your inner ego work for you along constructive lines. This isan excellent period for creative work, for impersonal use of magnetism for business ends and aimsand for social popularity. You have glamour that attracts others: be sure it attracts the right kind ofpeople and for the right reasons. The Old Adam rears his head and may require discipline.Nov 25, 2014 - Mars Conjunct UranusExpect temperament, haste and anxiety. Your nerves require watching. These problems canlead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) fromCurrent Transits Page 23Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeexcess speed and lack of care over details. Watch temperament. Accidents in the realm of humanrelations 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 overto any good advantage, and simply make trouble if you "try too hard." Store them up for a latertime when you express them better and when other people listen to you more readily. Look out formachinery, travel, electricity; avoid danger, be careful getting on and off trains and crossing streets.Current Transits Page 24EllynlvxTrans-Neptunian Report forSwampys KnowflakeThe "Uranian" Planets in the Chart for:Swampys KnowflakeCupidoCupido (Coo Pee Doe) · 26Ò˜08'39"Getting together.

First let's take a quick look at your ascendant, or rising sign. Astrologers want to know whatzodiac sign is rising at birth, since this gives a picture of the way you appear or come across toothers.

Each planet points to special qualitieswithin us. Yet, of all the planets, the two most important planets to astrologers are the "lights,"the Sun and the Moon. From where we stand here on Earth, the great shining Sun by day andthe reflecting Moon at night are our constant companions. They have much to tell us as towhere we have been and where we are headed.The Sun: Your Self and FutureFrom the Sun comes light, that which draws us into life. The Sun represents all the changeswe have not yet taken, that part of us that we have not yet experienced but are headed toward.The Sun represents our identity, or self, in that it is toward these that we are moving anddeveloping. Thus, it also represents that which we will become: older people, authorities --those we look toward, or up to. Our essence, or future. Teachers, gurus, and older (moreexperienced) people are represented by the Sun. The Sun is "hot stuff," those further up the roadof life experience.You are open-minded and democratic, enthusiastic, and have a definite sense of mission.Above all, you are a progressive and enjoy putting into practice that which is good for all. Youraltruism could appear as coolness. At home with different cultures, peoples, and lands, you loveto work with (and in) groups.Sun in AquariusYou will find yourself torn between an environment that is very comfortable and supportiveversus a real need to grow, progress, and push out on your own. You are always being caught inthe middle, forced to choose between surroundings that are supportive (but not progressive) andnew directions that bring advancement that may be at the expense of your comfort. Gettingthese two opposing directions to work together may require some real compromising skills onyour part. This could manifest as a love of history versus future trends, older persons versusyounger, and so on.Moon Opposition SunPlanet Aspects Page 4Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have a basic self-esteem that is plain to all who meet you. Your sense of discriminationand innate good taste means that you know good items from bad and are a connoisseur of allthat is fine and beautiful. A love of authority figures (men in particular), plus an appreciationfor authority and your elders in general, makes you welcome at any social scene.Sun Conjunction VenusA born doer, with an incredible drive to accomplish and achieve in life. Your ambitions arebacked up by the will to get things done. You can be very emotional, and others might find youa bit too aggressive. You try hard and you always push on toward whatever goals you have inmind. A conservative by nature, you tend to stand up for the status quo, and, if male, areprobably a "man's man."Sun Conjunction MarsYou tend to be stubborn and unable to make solid career choices. You get carried away andgo off in directions contrary to your actual needs. Your judgment in vocational matters is oftenoff, sending you on a wild goose chase. In addition, there is possible difficulty with authoritiesand the law and/or differences with older people. To use an old adage, you can (at times) beyour own worst enemy. The advice of a trusted friend regarding career is to be recommended.Sun Square JupiterThe Moon: The Support SystemHere is information about the kind of environment we create around us, our support system.It is not only the surroundings that we set up today, but the Moon also represents our past, theparticular history and social background out of which we grew. Aside from our socialbackground, the Moon governs all of the old habits that we have grown beyond. We tend tolook down on, or back on, our Moon. It represents those experiences out of which we havecome, all those younger souls who are unconscious, or "sub" conscious to our own level. This iswhy it is said that the Moon is a mystery planet, for it is both our parent and our child: ourparent in that out of it we were born, our child in that we can't but respond to others who arenow living as we once did.You can sense and understand the mood and feelings of others, and are excellent atcounseling and nursing. You are quite emotional, and have a natural sense of that whichpleases, knowing the mood of the crowd. You can be overly protective (or protected), but aregood at parenting and creating a home. Quite domestic.Moon in CancerYou may find yourself torn between two loves or passions, a love of the past versus thefuture, mother versus father, a younger crowd versus an older crowd. A basic antagonism ofhome and surroundings against the need to grow, progress, and push on.Moon Opposition SunYou have trouble appreciating or feeling comfortable with your emotions, especially whenwith others. Your particular set of values and appreciation may provoke confrontations withothers. You don't care how they may be feeling, and they may not be very supportive of somePlanet Aspects Page 5Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeof your own values. You are not noted for your great sense of discrimination when it comes toyour surroundings including the environment you live in. You don't care much for psychology,customs, and traditional values, in general.Moon Opposition VenusYou may not get a lot of support for the way you come on -- your basic energy and drive.You tend to go against the crowd and somehow always manage to create reverberation in thosearound you. Some may even find you overbearing, for your intensity runs counter to whateveris traditional or established. This fact could involve you in a lot of arguments over the years.You are not the least bit sentimental, and even tend to ignore sentiment in others.Moon Opposition MarsYou have little use for tradition, history, and the past, in general. Your autonomy andnonconformist attitude tends to ignore the feelings of others. You seem to enjoy confrontation,going out of your way to challenge whatever is traditional and customary. Don't be surprised ifthose around you won't always give you the support you feel you deserve.Moon Opposition UranusThe image you project of what is perfect or ideal from your point of view may find littlesupport at home. Others could oppose or block you in these matters, and maintaining yourdreams may be at the price of your friends and surroundings. You may find your background,environment, and all that is traditional less than ideal, even flat and uninspiring.Moon Opposition NeptuneYou have natural psychological ability, in particular when working with the public. You canhandle emotional and personal issues (vulnerable areas) where angels fear to tread. Peoplesense this about you and trust you with sensitive matters, inner worries, and questions ofpersonal identity. You have a real mission and a sense of purpose.Moon Trine PlutoYour career always seems to get the support you need, and this is one area of life that runssmoothly. You seem to understand what the public wants, and mass marketing is a natural foryou.Moon Sextile MidheavenThe Inner Planets: Mercury and VenusThe planets Mercury and Venus have more to do with our internal and personal life thanwith life outside us. These inner planets are located between the orbit of the Earth and the Sun.We can look to qualities that are inside us. Venus indicates how we appreciate and measure ourexperience, how we value life. Mercury tells us something about how our mind works, how wethink and communicate -- our intrinsic brightness.Planet Aspects Page 6Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeMercury: The Mind and CommunicationMercury is the light in our eyes, the ever-changing consciousness within us that moves fromidea to idea. Thus Mercury has always represented thoughts, ideas, and the mental process ingeneral. It governs not only ideas, but communications, too. Communications -- by phone,letter, spoken, or however -- are ruled by Mercury. Also thoughts, connections, phone wires,and everything that connects and conveys -- even conversations.You are an impartial thinker, democratic to the point of being impersonal. Fascinated by thelatest technology, you have very original ideas, an inventor. Always thinking of the world as aunity, you are idealistic and believe in putting into practice what is preached. You aregroup-conscious, community-oriented.Mercury in AquariusYou are very deliberate when it comes to words, to what you say and think. When youconcentrate, you always come up with what is essential to the matter at hand, ignoring all else.You're anything but "flip," and your more serious approach to ideas, while welcome when thereis mental work to do, may not always be appreciated when others are in more social moods.You are so serious. Philosophy, religion, and the like are natural for you.Mercury Conjunction SaturnGetting personal with you is a real mistake, for it always manages to plunge you intoturmoil. You resent probing on the part of others, yet are fascinated by behind-the-scenes andso-called "secret" information. You may prefer not to think about anything below the surface,but even this is not a constant, and this inner conflict produces more than its share of tension.Mercury Square PlutoYou are never funnier, wittier, or more at your mental best than when in a group or lost in adeep conversation with a partner. You may even neglect your personal interests by devoting somuch of your time and energy to thinking about other people.Mercury Opposition AscendantYour love of talk, ideas, and expressing yourself to others may mean that your family andeven your job may suffer. Your mind is often on your appearance, how you come across andrelate to the crowd, to those around you.Mercury Square MidheavenVenus: Values and DiscriminationVenus rules our values and sense of appreciation. When we appraise or appreciatesomething, whether that be another person or a new car, this is Venus -- the sense of love andcompassion we may feel. By the same token, this planet rules enjoyment too. Whether it beself-appreciation or just plain old decadent self-enjoyment by having a good time, this is Venus.When we go shopping or are on a spending spree, it is Venus that allows us to appreciate andvalue all the good things of life.Planet Aspects Page 7Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeMarriage for convention's sake, if at all, is your motto. Let's not get too personal or emotional.A friend's friend. You love to work for a great cause or purpose, and a better world is the placeto be. You appreciate what's fair and democratic, and feel most happy in a group or community.Venus in AquariusYou have excellent taste and could be expert in all matters of art and discrimination. Youcan always pick out the valuable and worthwhile. You value and appreciate all that is fine andbeautiful. Perhaps an interest in older people or authority.Sun Conjunction VenusYour sense of values and the way you care about things may prove challenging to others.You may not appreciate the emotions and moods you feel, especially when in a group. You maynot care much for psychology, history, or the problems of younger people.Moon Opposition VenusYou don't like making career decisions, and you can get downright confused when it comesto making the right choice. You may not appreciate advice, and this makes the problemsomewhat more complex. It could be important for you to get the counsel of a trusted friend,someone who can advise you as to the right choices. Whether you happen to like them or not,once you have determined the right route, you should take it.Venus Square JupiterThe External Planets: Mars, Jupiter, SaturnThe major planets outside the Earth's orbit (external to us) are Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.These are the planets of the outer world -- life as we find it outside ourselves. Mars tells ussomething about the drive and energy we have, Jupiter shows us how to best channel thatenergy, and Saturn decrees what sort of material or territory we will be passing through. Again:Saturn tells us about the territory we will be going through, Jupiter the way or path through it,and Mars what kind of push or drive we can count on to keep going.Mars: Drive and EmotionsMars is the planet of emotion and inner motivation or drive. When we search for themeaning of something, life or whatever, it is Mars that urges us on, keeps us searching. Marsalso drives us against things, too and sends us into war and combat. The urgency of Mars, thesearch for meaning, is identical to the need for union, yoga, and marriage. Mars is the planet ofunion, and marriage is the most common form of yoga. When we have questions about theopposite sex, we are looking at the planet Mars.You are a very hard worker and are driven to accomplish, manage, and be in control. Youlike to manipulate a situation for its own benefit and would make a natural supervisor. Youhave an inner urge for order and organization and a great sense of responsibility. You arecompetent, ambitious, and cool.Mars in CapricornPlanet Aspects Page 8Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou are very motivated, with a strong drive and urge to do and accomplish. Others could findyou a bit pushy. With an eye to progress and the future, you feel compelled to try for what isjust out of your reach. You support authority in all forms.Sun Conjunction MarsOthers may find you pushy, for your motivation and drive could run counter to theestablished values of the group. You tend to go against sentiment and refuse to credit emotions.Culture and history don't fascinate you. You get a lot of reactions.Moon Opposition MarsYou are probably hard to control and very unpredictable. Your drive for independence isobvious, and it is clear that the common and the traditional are not for you. Anything else butthat! You pursue alternate or nonconformist solutions to life with great energy. Your temper ishot and sharp and tends to snap out like a lightning bolt. You are aggressive in the pursuit ofgaining insight into all that is new, different, and out of the ordinary. Electronics, computers,and communications could be a big part of your life.Mars Conjunction UranusA desire for unity and atonement. You have an urge to put out to sea and to somehow getpast what separates and into that which unites or ties things together. Your drive to makedreams real keeps you working for your vision. The ideal should be made real. You put yourwhole heart into making your dreams and ideals a reality.Mars Conjunction NeptuneYou enjoy working with whatever is psychological -- the hidden, vulnerable, sensitive areasof the mind and self. You can handle material that is sensitive or taboo without batting an eye.This interest in all that is psychological makes you an excellent teacher in the field. You have anatural grasp for the political, for handling the public, and you know how to get your way. Yourdrive in these areas amounts to a passion, and those around you may feel that you are often toointense. Power struggles are somewhat routine for you.Mars Sextile PlutoYou put forth a lot of effort, in particular regarding your career. Your drive and ambitionswork well with whatever management skills and practical ability you have, producing aharmonious work environment.Mars Trine MidheavenJupiter: Career and Life PathJupiter is the planet of success and simple survival, the way we have to solve the problemsthat confront us. Thus Jupiter has to do with the way in which we can be successful, ourvocation. The Hindu word for Jupiter is Guru. Jupiter is the guru and guide, the way we gothrough life, our life path or vocation. Jupiter is the method each of us has for dealing with thelaws of life, our Saturn, or limitations. Jupiter is the light or path. Jupiter provides us with oursense of direction, the path we are on, the way we handle life. It affects how we approach life'sproblems. It has always been an indicator of how successful we may be, our vocation.Planet Aspects Page 9Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeAn in-fighter, with animal-like instincts when it comes to big business, you are always wherethe action is most intense. Your penetrating mind gets through the B.S. and straight to thebottom line every time. Exciting to be near, you are an entrepreneur, the big wheel. Sometimesrestless, driven.Jupiter in ScorpioYou may tend to take paths at right angles to your real ambitions and self-interest. Troublewith authorities or older people can result. Your struggle to succeed is aided when you showself-control or discipline and find that middle road.Sun Square JupiterYou have a habit of ignoring what is best for you and taking roads that you know will leadnowhere, but might be fun to take. Career decisions may have to be made that don't cater toyour particular likes, dislikes, and value system.Venus Square JupiterSaturn: ResponsibilitiesThe process of finding out who we are (self-discovery) starts when we come to grips withwhatever problems life presents to us and begin to get a handle on them. In other words, if wehave not dealt with Saturn, or time (that is, if we don't have some control of time), there is littleopportunity for other questions. Saturn rules the laws and limitations of this material world weall live in. Saturn indicates where we are bound to learn, the narrowness that makes our wayfelt, the walls that make homes possible. Saturn holds us together as much as apart. Saturn issaid to be the great teacher, the planet that keeps us from getting carried away in one directionor another. Although it always seeks to limit and determine any thought, word, or action, it alsodefines and clarifies. Saturn is called the prince of the material world.You have an innate distrust of groups or large organizations and could tend to avoid what isnew or future-oriented. You are, perhaps, too conservative and need to develop a sense ofcommunity and sharing with others. Learn to be independent. Practice impartiality and altruism.Be innovative.Saturn in AquariusYou are a serious thinker and don't often waste words. Concentration is easy for you, anddetailed, technical, mental work would suit you just fine. Not free with your words, some mayfind you a tad on the sober side. A disciplined mind.Mercury Conjunction SaturnYour very organized self tends to hide behind duties and responsibilities. This no-nonsenseapproach manages to push aside many opportunities for others to reach out to you and get close.You resist getting personal and tend to avoid issues that are touchy and might result inconfrontation and change. There could be eruptions that overturn all of the more orderly rituals.Saturn Square PlutoYou are very painstaking and deliberate when it comes to partnerships, lovers --relationships of all kinds. You tend toward long-lasting friendships and are very loyal,Planet Aspects Page 10Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakesometimes too staid.Saturn Opposition AscendantYou are very painstaking and deliberate when it comes to partnerships, lovers --relationships of all kinds. You tend toward long-lasting friendships and are very loyal.sometimes too staid.Saturn Square MidheavenThe Outer PlanetsIn the previous sections, we have dealt with planets that we can see with our naked eyes. Ingeneral, these planets refer to life as we know and live it and are the so-called historical orclassic planets. Beyond these are three planets that are not visible in the sky and which havecycles longer than the average human life span. Since they are beyond Saturn or time,astrologers call them the trans-personal or transcendental planets -- the planets beyond thephysical. One of the ways astrologers learn something about our life beyond time (eternal life)is through these three outer planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Here we find information onhow we discover ourselves (Uranus), how we understand and accept these discoveries(Neptune), and, in time, how we depend and identify with them (Pluto).Uranus: Break-Thrus & InsightsOur responsibilities can tend to weigh us down, and we each have our particular ways ofgetting around (or breaking through) the mass of obstructions that tends to congeal around us.The planet that has to do with how we get beyond the difficulties and problems life presents usis Uranus. Here is the way insights come to us, how we discover or come to know andunderstand ourselves. It has to do with finding new uses for old things, and it rules inventionsand sudden insights into our life -- everything that is unusual, eccentric, and out of the ordinary.It is the reverse of the status quo and is always unconventional and heretical. Uranus is, in manyways, the opposite, or undoing of Saturn.You are innovative in the political and business arena. You find new ways to manage andcontrol things and people. Ever practical, you come up with new or alternate forms ofmanagement -- breakthroughs in top-level management and corporate styles. You bring newlife to conservative traditions. Your emotions are very staid.Uranus in CapricornYour independence and general unconventionality may sometimes be offensive to others.You like to go against the grain, break free, and relish the unusual and different. You may rebelagainst tradition, the past, history, and the like.Moon Opposition UranusYour temper is a hot one and tends to come bursting forth. A drive for independence andnonconformity takes you beyond the ordinary into the unusual and eccentric. You could pursueelectronics, computers, and the like.Mars Conjunction UranusPlanet Aspects Page 11Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have real vision and insight into the unity that ties this world together. Your brilliantimagination and enchanting manner transport all who meet you beyond the mundane and intothe extraordinary regions where you spend a lot of your time. You are a seer, in the true senseof the word, and possess a waking experience of that part of us that is mystical and dreamlike.You find new ways to bring people together, to unify situations. Unusual music.Uranus Conjunction NeptuneYou have great insights into what motivates the public, crowds, and the mind in general.You can work with sensitive and vulnerable psychological areas without batting an eye, andwould be good at instructing others in these areas. Your keen mind and great analytical powersalways manage to get at whatever motivation is beyond apparent behavior. You can see what isbehind touchy and very personal matters.Uranus Sextile PlutoYou tend to be creative and original in your work and career, managing to bring new ideasand spontaneity to bear.Uranus Trine MidheavenNeptune: Ideals & ImaginationEven the most hard-nosed of us have moments of real understanding, when things are seenas linked together and one piece. We stop getting the idea in little flashes and just get the wholething. It dawns on us. We each have our own way of letting go, having communion, and (as thepoet wrote) letting "the dewdrop slip into the shining sea." These moments and this state ofmind are, in fact, the source for all our imagination. There are many ways of seeing through theseparateness in the world to the unity behind it.The practical is the ideal. Form follows function. You have a dream of being in control --the puppet master. You are very interested in tradition and tend to be dignified andconservative. You believe in an orderly society led by benevolent monarchs -- those who cansee what to do.Neptune in CapricornYour hopes and dreams may be maintained at the expense of your emotions and home life.Others may challenge or find themselves opposed to your ideals or the image you project. Yourinterest in the occult and spiritual may not always find group support.Moon Opposition NeptuneYou are driven to make your dreams and ideals a reality. "What could be and should be,will be and must be" is your slogan. You are committed to ideas like world unity andcommunity. You are living in your own dreams.Mars Conjunction NeptuneYou could be a visionary, with unusual and direct insight into everything mystical, thedreams and ideals we all have. You are at your most creative when you are using yourimagination, pursuing your dreams, creating images.Uranus Conjunction NeptunePlanet Aspects Page 12Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou prefer a career that accents your own devotion to the dreams and ideals you stand for.Working with groups in a spirit of cooperation and communion is a natural.Neptune Trine MidheavenPluto: Inner Change and GrowthPluto is the planet of profound change, starting deep within us and moving toward thesurface. It often touches upon the most sensitive psychological areas inside us. Once touched,we have no choice but to change and grow. The most sensitive of experiences, the times ofgreatest vulnerability, are times of complete identification with an experience, a person, or athing. We know in these instants that we are looking at our self, what we are. The most personalof experiences is one of complete identification with a person, moment, or idea. Perhaps this isonly possible for most of us when we look into our child's eyes, and then only infrequently.Love is not the experience here, but total identification. This is very sensitive stuff. To touchupon this material is to go through deep inner change and transformation -- inner alchemy.Identification and experiencing that life is our own creation and that, in fact, you are I and I amyou. This experience breaks us down and humbles. When we touch upon this experience, wecannot but die to what we have been thinking and doing up to now. It reduces us to our mostsensitive because -- in a flash -- we see or remember that it all is us, our life.You tear through appearances in an effort to get beneath, behind, and at the heart oressence. You may find psychology, initiation, and mysticism, and the occult of great interest.Intense personal change and inner growth are lifelong habits.Pluto in ScorpioA born psychologist. Able to understand and handle a crowd and the public in general.Devoted to children and the idea of future changes. Not much given to a misuse of personalpower. Always this sense of vision and purpose. Intense. The long haul.Moon Trine PlutoYour personal life and secret thoughts may be something that you have difficulty speakingabout or expressing to others. This can produce tension that gives way to bouts of deepsearching and analysis, even gossip. The bigger the front, the more it is hiding.Mercury Square PlutoGreat intensity of emotions and purpose. Could be a spokesperson for a cause or ageneration. Fearless in action and not afraid to use power. Will have your way. Know how toget what you want. A very magnetic and perhaps controversial personality.Mars Sextile PlutoPower struggles may occur, in particular between your sense of responsibility and an urgeto transform yourself utterly. Your more orderly self tends to ignore signs of change until theyerupt as major upheavals. An ongoing cycle.Saturn Square PlutoSpiritual or psychological insight of the first order. Social and/or political revelation.Looking into the inner workings of the mind and psyche. New and fresh viewpoints into thePlanet Aspects Page 13Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakesocial scene, mass psychology.

Your particular set of values and appreciation may provoke confrontations withothers. You don't care how they may be feeling, and they may not be very supportive of someof your own values. You are not noted for your great sense of discrimination when it comes toyour surroundings including the environment you live in. You don't care much for psychology,customs, and traditional values, in general.Moon Opposition Venus 09°19'Talents and AbilitiesDespite whatever problems we may have, there are areas of life where we have clear insightand real talent -- natural ability. When it comes to these matters, our judgment is sharp and wealways manage to take charge. We have the knack. It may be as simple as the ability to workhard and accomplish things without something going wrong. An innate sense of the workings ofthese parts of life makes it easy for us to learn and accomplish things where they are concerned.You enjoy working with whatever is psychological -- the hidden, vulnerable, sensitive areasof the mind and self. You can handle material that is sensitive or taboo without batting an eye.This interest in all that is psychological makes you an excellent teacher in the field.

Since childhood, adolescence, and early adult life are so crucial toeach of us, an attempt has been made to describe these formative years. Based on the gradualmovement of the planet Saturn, this is one of the most tested of all astrological techniques. It isused by almost every professional astrologer as part of any personal consultation. Provided thatyour time of birth is more or less accurate, you will find this information both accurate andinformative. Here is a general life overview, followed by a close-up on your current changes --what is happening right now. First the overview:Your Personal BackgroundYou are a late bloomer, and your childhood should be an easy one. However, in your earlyteens (somewhere around the age of 14-15), you will take a distinct turn toward the more innerand subjective. This could mean a number of years when you feel insecure, very alone, andquite on your own. The years from 14 through 21 or 22 will be times of intense searching andself-examination during which you may not have much outwardly to show others as to who youare or what you can do. You could be perceived as hard to reach, and you may feel that no onerecognizes who you are. Fear not, for this is not a long-term condition. In your early to middletwenties, you will have a real awakening (suddenly find yourself), will move outward, and willfind something upon which you can build with confidence. Each year afterwards brings a gainLandscape: Major Life Periods Page 18Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakein self-confidence and accomplishments. Your most successful years (from 30-40) will bringyou material gain and outward recognition. You could reach a peak of fame or success aroundthe 37th or 38th year.Your Current SituationNow for a close-up of recent years: while landscape was quite general, the dates given inthis close-up should be much more precise. Life is composed of sections of time, each devotedto one kind of activity or another. We go along for a while in one direction until somethingchanges within (or outside) us and we head off in a new course. Some of our earlier activitiesdry up and new ones spring up in their place. What follows is an analysis of the time period inwhich you find yourself now. Don't look here for a day-to-day account of life but rather to get apicture of this stretch of time, "these years."Aug 09, 2007 3rd Pass D> (Age 13 6m)The date(s) (above) indicate the end of a very outward and perhaps successful period ofyears for you, during which you may have had an opportunity to establish yourself both incareer and reputation. You may find yourself becoming less interested in the outer and socialworld and more interested in your own inner changes. There will be less of an impulse forrecognition along with a growing sense of being by yourself and enjoying it. This coming timewill be less outward and may call for a change of approach and perhaps life style. This is not atime of outreach, not the best point to start any great projects. Instead you may wish toconsolidate what you now have, pull back a bit, and prepare for a number of years of a moreinward and personal nature. This will be a time of introspection, and you may find yourselfletting go of plans and projects started in a more outward phase but as yet uncompleted. Youmay take an interest in your own psyche, religion, and spiritual ideas. This is a time to absorband take in new impressions and information. In summary, here is a natural breaking-point inlife, a time to let go of what has been occupying you for the last years and assume a newattitude. Many people find themselves withdrawing socially and enjoying their own company.In summary: This marks a more inward period that will last 6-7 years, during which you mayfeel insecure and on your own. Don't expect to make great headway in the outer, social world.Bide your time and prepare for your "coming out" a few years down the road.Saturn in 01st QuadrantThe Elements, Modalities and AngularityElements, modalities, and house quadrants. These are all techniques used by astrologers togain a general picture of how a person measures up. How do your planets and houses total up?The Elements, Modalities and Angularity Page 19Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeWhich do you have in abundance, and which do you lack, if any? Those with high totals showwhat we can or must do in life. These are qualities we have. However, most people are moreinterested by what they lack or want -- their lowest totals. They tend to study their "wants,"imitate, and even pretend to have them. The old adage is: we become what we want (or lack),while we do what we can (or have to do). Here are your totals:There is an emphasis on communication, expression of ideas, and the connections betweenthings, places, and people. What goes on in your mind is the all-important motivation in yourlife. You tend towards mental pursuits and admire intelligence.Have AirYour inner self-confidence may be lacking, and you could try to overcome this by defensiveaggressiveness. You probably wish you had more of the self-assurance your fiery acquaintanceshave.Want FireA solid supporter, always gravitating to the heart of things. You may have trouble gettingmoving, but once rolling, others better watch out. You have a stick-to-itiveness that alwaysfinds you in the thick of things, toughing it out.Have FixedYou may lack flexibility, managing a foot-in-the-mouth when you least need it. You couldhave trouble adapting to situations or to the demands of those around you. Perhaps it is not easyfor you to communicate or smooth over things.Want MutableCircumstances can throw you into positions where you must use your mind and deal withcommunications, service, or enclosed hidden interests. You may deal with education,psychology, spiritual enlightenment or teaching principles and techniques.Have CadentYour Burn RateWe all change, but the question is: At what rate? Some of us tear through change afterchange, one phase following another, year after year, while others move at a more serene pace.Or, one area of our lives may be hectic and forever changing, while other areas are quitetranquil. Why do some people seem to live lifetimes within lifetimes? Here is an analysis ofyour particular rate of change or "burn rate," including the particular areas of your life (planets)where you can expect continued change and growth. Areas where there is a very low index ofchange (indicating clear and easy use of the qualities involved) will also be pointed out. If youhave sometimes wondered about the areas of your life where the candles burn at both ends, hereare the details.Your Burn Rate Page 20Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYou have an average amount of change present in life, neither too much nor very little.Specific planets, either high or low, will be presented after this (if any exist).A majority of planets in the PAST suggests that you are comfortable with establishedvalues. You know and understand more than you let on, and life changes seldom take you bysurprise. You have a great deal of control over your actions.Planets in High FocusYour drive and emotions are very pure and clear. They will tend to be tranquil and notsubject to continual adjustment and change. This is a special gift -- clear-seeing in emotionalmatters.MarsQuestions of attitude, approaches to problem-solving, and the methods for handlingauthorities and the law are in high focus and are indicated by a high burn rate regarding yourcareer and making your way through life. Perhaps you will have many jobs or be forever goingthrough changes and adjustments that affect your career. It could be difficult finding lastingsuccess or prosperity, and the path to it may be areas where you have real experience andparticular expertise.JupiterYou have a high burn rate (go through a lot of changes) when it comes to sensitive,psychological areas of your life or times when you are feeling vulnerable. Direct confrontationtends to put you through a lot. You prefer diplomacy but find yourself in the midst of stickysituations on a regular basis.PlutoPatterns: Your Inner and Outer SelfHere we are examining your basic attitude or approach to life, what is called by some thearchetype or soul-type. If you know something about your particular soul-type, this can providevaluable information as to the general direction and purpose of your life. In particular, it isimportant to note the difference, if any, between our outer personality (the way we appear toothers) and our real inner self; how are we, in fact, as people get to know us? Not all people areas they seem.You are no secret. Outside or inside, there is not much difference. You are just as youappear.Geo: Square Helio: SquarePatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 21Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYour Soul TypeYou are independent, confident, and more than likely more than a little self-centered. Youlove attention and somehow manage to gravitate to the center of almost any group orhappening. Others accept you, for they sense you are a leader and admire your almost regalmanner. Yet they may have to keep their distance, for as much as you love attention and thecrowd, you are also fiercely protective of your independence, sense of freedom, and -- above all-- your privacy. There is a kind of contradiction here. When in the mood, you love to expressyourself, entertain and perform for others, and enjoy being surrounded by an audience. You arevery magnetic and dynamic. Others love to be with you. There is something about you thatothers can't seem to get enough of; yet for all your confidence, you tend to depend on others foradvice and counsel. Your grasp of the moment is unquestioned. You're it, or at least always inthe midst of it. Yet you find yourself needing the advice of someone who is not as involved,someone to give you directions from time to time. In a sense, you are all dressed up but are notsure where to go or where you are headed. And because of this, you depend on those aroundyou for direction and guidance during the times when you lose sight of the bigger picture.You are a very feeling person and can sense the drift of a situation without a lot of analysis.This immediate "hands-on" approach might be contrasted with one that is more deliberate andcerebral. You could be left with a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to matters ofeducation, philosophy, and conceptual ability. In a word, you revere this kind of stuff, notbecause it is natural to you but rather because it does not come easy for you. You have to workfor it. There may be a tendency on your part to puff up your intellectual powers.It is said that there are just two kinds of people in the world, those who are born to love andthose who are born to be loved. You are the second type, one who is born to be loved and caredfor by others. Don't feel bad about attracting attention in a group. People love to be with youand find you very easy to love. Everyone wants a piece of you, and this can result in yourneeding more space, a chance to be alone. Your type is not famous for being attentive to theneeds of others or being very demonstrative in a love relationship. You are the immovableobject that others find irresistible and sometimes selfish. You love to express yourself and are aborn entertainer. You are very stubborn and have great stamina. You may tend to fear thatothers find you a little dense or too sense-oriented. You radiate energy and information andhave to just accept the fact that people like to feel your warmth. Let them take care of you. Yousit on the throne.Square TypeThe Key to your Inner LifeEach person has one or more key qualities. Here we are not referring to our appearance orpersonality, but rather to our inner nature, how we are when someone really gets to know us.Just being yourself, living your life for the moment, being here now. In some sense, justbeing yourself is both the goal itself and the means of traveling to that goal. Others sense thatyour life is important. You are your own reason for being. You are yourself both the end thatPatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 22Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeyou are heading for and the way, or vehicle, that gets you there. You, as a being, are yourselfthe heart and center of all your inner activity. Your dreams, visions, and ideals propel you, butalways from within. You follow the inner guide, and your ambitions are true and serve to showthe way.SunYour most essential quality has to do with the very real love and compassion you radiate.Your sense of values and sheer appreciation for life are communicated to all who come to knowyou. Beyond whatever external considerations may be present, you exude a contagiousthankfulness and fondness for things and people. These inner, loving qualities are experiencedas a very real good.VenusThe Key to your PersonalityThe key to understanding your personality and the circumstances in which you find yourselfcan be found in the environment or support system that surrounds you. You are very much thecreature of habit and habitat, and the encircling network of friends, relationships, and what-notare crucial to your success or lack thereof. You are nourished in great measure by theatmosphere and conditions you are able to set up.MoonThe Personal Hot SpotYou tend to take everything with great intenseness. Your drive to get at the heart and truthof things is constantly invoked, and serves as a common theme in your life.PlutoEmotions and drive take the heat as far as being a prime focus for action in your personalsphere.MarsInterface: Innermost qualitiesThis feature is based on an intricate analysis of the position of a particular planet in relationto the orbital planes of the other planets. The resulting series of crossings, or nodes, tells ussomething about the nature of our innermost inclinations (Inc) and disinclinations (Dis). Theseindicators are not to be considered at the level of our personality, but rather are deep-seatedparts of our innermost character -- our internal biases. These pros and cons are not apt to changein the course of our lifetime.Interface: Innermost qualities Page 23Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeYour value system has little room for the mystical, much less whatever the psychics are talkingabout. When these things crop up, you cut them off early on. Your position is simple: dreams,images, spiritual thoughts, and what-not are just not your cup of tea. You don't care for them.And yet, this whole subject fascinates you. There is a siren-like quality to all of this, calling andluring you. Sooner or later, this must be worked through.Venus Dis NeptuneYou have a relentless drive to get at the heart of things, whatever is under the surface orbehind the scenes. Your relentless pursuit of anything hidden or secret makes you a researcheror investigator bar none. Emotionally you are also hot stuff, rushing into areas and handlingsubject matter that others would never come near. Vulnerable issues, sensitive areas of the self,and psychology are the first places you head. This amounts to a passion with you. Those aroundyou may find you just too intense to be around. It puts them through a great many changes.Mars Inc PlutoYou have real difficulties when it comes to matters of self-discipline. Your career suffersdue to your lack of training and education. You go against authority, clashing with it rather thanfinding a way to work with and learn from it. You end up taking an unplanned course of actionthat lacks any organization and seldom holds up for long. Taking the easy way out can be verypainful. You come back to square one again and again.Jupiter Dis SaturnSecrets have a short half-life around you, for you have them out in a wink of an eye. Youare brilliant when it comes to insights into the mind, psychology, and motivation -- yours orothers'. Your intensity is obvious, and some may prefer to keep their distance rather thansubject themselves to your laser eye. Nothing is passed over without being turned inside andout. Your analytical powers are superb, and you enjoy finding new avenues of inner growth.Uranus Inc PlutoYour interest in religion, spiritual matters, and things that stretch beyond the course of asingle human lifetime is quite unique. Others may not be able to share your vision into thespiritual and psychological, seeing you as something of a weirdo. To get to know you is tocatch a glimpse, however brief, into some of the eternal thoughts and realms. You are verydevotional when it comes to anything connected to spiritual and inner growth, and the processof personal introspection and analysis is also sacrosanct.Neptune Inc PlutoMajor Transits Happening NowAstrologers use the term "transits" to mean the positions of the major planets that areoverhead (in the sky) right now and their relationship to our birth chart. Transits are veryimportant indicators of the current situation in which we find ourselves. They can provideMajor Transits Happening Now Page 24Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeinsight into what we are now going through. Here are the dates when the next major transits forthe planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are exact in your chart. Some dates willhave already passed and some are still to come. Remember, with these large planets transitsdon't just happen on the day when they are exact. They cover a wide span of days, weeks,months, and sometimes years, depending on which planet is involved.In general, transits of Jupiter take from several days to a week or two to complete, whilethose of Saturn take from two weeks to a month to play themselves out. With the outer planets,the period of activity is even longer: transits of Uranus take about two months, Neptune three orfour months, and Pluto takes about a year. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto move so slowly that thecomplete transit experience may take a year or two to complete itself. So be prepared to workwith these situations.Jun 06, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 20 4m)The career path is open and clear, yet it may go against or challenge some of your idealsand life dreams.

Here is an analysis of house activity based onplanet emphasis:First House: Appearance, ApproachThe first house has to do with how we appear or the way we come across, thus ourappearance and personality. This is the essential stuff that bubbles up in us spontaneously andthat is obvious to others as our trademark or activity. It is what makes us each so personallydifferent. This house rules our personal self and everything about us that draws a reaction fromour surroundings or others.First HouseLeo energy is expressive, emotive, and concerned with awareness and a sense of pride andownership. Here is always a sense of home base or confidence from which the aggressive andoutgoing Leo energy operates. Often very artistic, and always theatrical and expressive, thissign is good for creativity and the arts. Warm and big-hearted, this sign belongs to love ofanimals, sports, children.LeoSecond House: Possessions, ReactionsThe second house is concerned with how we respond to or field whatever impulses orunique and personal qualities we manifest via our first house. This is how we hold or "have"things (possessions, material goods, money, and the like). The second house always refers tohow we secure ourselves, the kind of response we get from life and those around us.Second HouseVirgo energy is analytical and precise, always separating what is worthwhile and worthsupporting from that which is outmoded and of no further use. A mental sign, where thinkingand examining are in high focus. Also, a different kind of mother, here an endless caring andworrying (fussing) about just about everything. Always compassionate and responsive, Virgoenergy is service-oriented above all, often thinking and caring more about what others are doingand thinking than for self.VirgoHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 27Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeThird House: Inquiries, CommunicationsThe third house is concerned with explorations, investigations, and inquiry and research ofall kinds. It also rules connections, communications, wires, tubes -- anything that we can getthrough with our body, mind, voice, letters, what-have-you. It is here that we explore andsearch for the limits of our life, whatever we are working with at the moment. A very mentalhouse, concerned with finding, furthering, peering, and all manner of questioning. Traditionallyrules short journeys, siblings.Third HouseLibra energy is always facilitating and responsive, assuming the appropriate reaction orresponse to any question or statement. What is sometimes seen as two-faced is only Libra'sfacility at responding to each in kind. This is certainly the social sign, par excellence.Impersonal and impartial, this sign doles out only what is demanded, never overdoing things.LibraA born investigator and researcher, always inquiring, searching, following things to theirlogical conclusion. Your career will probably be built around these qualities of yours --communication, making connections, thoughts and ideas, and so on.Jupiter in Third HouseFourth House: Home, Family, SecurityThe fourth house is where we send down roots, find our limits, and generally secureourselves. It is the end of any searching we might have done in the third house. Here we find orend our search, settle down, and manage to get in possession of the whole situation. This is ourhome and the base from which we can work, feel, and experience. This is the root of ourexperience, the core or thick of it.Fourth HouseScorpio is the most famous sign. Intense, passionate, and very personal, Scorpio rushes pastsuperficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but a fanatic foe, this signdoes well in politics and all areas where someone who dares is rewarded. Often associated withsexual energy, perhaps due to its tendency to strip away veneer, laying bare anything that isthere.ScorpioYou may go through a lot of changes that affect your sense of security. Your home andfamily situation could be a focus for growth and real learning -- an area of great sensitivity andvulnerability.Pluto in Fourth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 28Astro*Talk Swampys KnowflakeFifth House: Expression, CreativityThe fifth house has to do with awareness, emotion (to move out), and expression (to pressout). Here there is always a growing sense of self-confidence and even a pride of ownership,since we begin to recognize and own our experience. We know that we have had or are havingan experience. All forms of expression and offspring are connected to this house -- children,animals, creative expression, and so on. A sense of direction and ownership takes hold at thispoint in our experience.Fifth HouseSagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid, and to the point. Sometimes harsh, this energyalways is concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand. Associated with philosophy,religion, and all things that last, Sagittarius energy is always welcome in politics as well associal and community endeavors, where its basic fairness and evenhandedness is helpful.SagittariusYou are unconventional when it comes to self-expression and enjoyment. You find new anddifferent ways to get it out -- possibly sports, the creative arts, and such. Always independentwhen it comes to emotions, you don't mind feeling a little different.Uranus in Fifth HouseYou have great creative imagination, perhaps a strong sense for the dramatic and the abilityto express ideas of a mystical or other-worldly flavor. Entertaining children (and adults) withenchanting stories and the like is indicated.Neptune in Fifth HouseSixth House: Responsibility, Work, HealthThe sixth house has to do with salvaging and preserving what is good and healthy in ourexperience. Here we separate the wheat from the chaff. We begin to care for ourselves and ourexperience and thus health, nutrition. The idea here is that we are able to analyze our experienceand have thoughts about what is pure and what is not. The sixth house is an attempt to save theheart of an experience, one that already by that attempt is beginning to pass or not cohere.Sixth HouseCapricorn is the business energy of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of the emotionalCancer. Given to clear-headedness and practical insight and vision, this sign always takes adistanced perspective, a cool appraisal. Logical and painstaking, Capricorns love hard work andearned results. Money and things in general are very important.CapricornYou are a good worker, always thinking and caring for things. You are naturallyservice-oriented and enjoy taking care of the needs of others. You are very discriminating andcan sort out the good apples from the bad.Sun in Sixth HouseYou are skilled at using your mind in an analytical manner, always discriminating. AnHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 29Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeexpert at quality control, you can spot the bad apples every time. You may be skillful when itcomes to health-related matters (mental or physical).Mercury in Sixth HouseYou like to do things with care and enjoy being discriminating and exact. Your criticalfaculties are excellent, and you can always pick out what is worth saving and what is not. Youappreciate a caring attitude and are service-oriented.Venus in Sixth HouseYou are very motivated when it comes to matters of care and service -- taking care ofdetails. You are up for any task that requires conservation -- separating the wheat from thechaff. An urge to salvage everything.Mars in Sixth HouseSeventh House: Relationships, Other PeopleThe seventh house is the house of partnerships, relationships, social life, and all that carriesus beyond our personal self into an awareness of other people, community, and the like. Thisincludes spiritual awakening and the discovery that we are more than just our personality. Herewe begin to respond to our personal needs (and those of others) for the first time. We can seewhat is going on and are committed to it; thus, marriage and yoga, or union, is indicated in thishouse.Seventh HouseAquarius, the sign of humanitarian goals and altruism. Always impartial and nonsectarian,Aquarian energy is communal (even global). The focus is on the goal, and the goal is alwaysone that is for the many and not the few. Thus this sign is connected to far-seeing visions, worldviews, and group work of all kinds. This sign tends towards coolness, independence.AquariusRelationships are so important to you that they could be a stumbling block at times. It maybe difficult for you to be close, as you are very demanding of others. You are not satisfied withsuperficialities. You want a lasting marriage (union, yoga).Saturn in Seventh HouseEighth House: Business Savvy, EliminationThe eighth house, traditionally the house of death, is concerned with getting rid of excessparts of ourselves that we see we no longer need. Thus this house also covers initiation and anyactivities where we are transforming toward a more integral position, getting to the heart ofthings. The no-nonsense quality of the eighth house makes it good for business ventures sincehere we are stripping away the dross to reveal the truth or essence of the subject.Eighth HousePisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath the surface.This sign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend to absorb all the little barbsand digs coming from outside. They always have their mind on an inner goal, something moreHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 30Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflakeimportant. They are very forgiving and accepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of moreimportant issues.PiscesNinth House: Religions, Philosophy, IdeasThe ninth house covers long journeys and religion (the longest journey of all). Here is whatremains of the purification that takes place in the eighth house -- the seed, or essence, of anentire cycle of experience. Religion comes from a Latin word that means to bind back, and thusrefers to all things that last or endure, such as the truth. Essential ideas, philosophy, and all thatis the very heart of things belong here.Ninth HouseAries is the sign of the pioneer and leader. It is always impulsive, concentrated, andspontaneous. Act first and think about what you have done later. Rushing in where others fearto tread, the Aries energy is attention-getting. It always provokes a response from thesurroundings, from others. There is something essential and instigative that starts or causessomething else to happen -- a reaction or response.AriesTenth House: Practical Vision, VocationThe 10th house is a house of practical vision and clairvoyance, for here we can see clearlywhat is. Reputation and career are often connected to this house, since the areas where we cansee with greatest clarity are those we most often can put to use to make a living. In summary,this house is where we have real vision and can see to do and work. Planets transiting this housemay provide moments of insight and clear-seeing as well.Tenth HouseTaurus manages to respond, possess, and "have" just about everything possible. This is anurturing and fertile sign in that any seed or impulse is cradled, bringing forth growth anddevelopment. Taurus is the way we "have" things, how we possess and acquire things. There issomething gentle, regular, steadfast, and determined about Taurus. Always accepting,mothering, providing a base for... a matrix or womb where growth takes place.TaurusEleventh House: Dreams & Visions, CommunityThe 11th house has to do with putting our visions and dreams to work. We have been on themountain and had a vision (10th house). Here we take our vows never to forget what we haveseen and to work hard to make these dreams into reality. Thus this house has always beenconnected with altruistic and humanitarian goals and trying to set them in motion. It is thehouse of friends and community, because when we are powered by a real insight or vision weshare with all -- irrespective of differences.Eleventh HouseGemini is concerned with connections and communication of all kinds -- letters, wires,House Activity and Emphasis Page 31Astro*Talk Swampys Knowflaketelephones, voice, thoughts, writing, and mental processes in general. Gemini is the gadfly, thecommunicator, the gossip of the zodiac. Searching conversations, scientific inquiry, research,and so on belong here. Gemini energy is unattached, independent, and inquisitive.GeminiTwelfth House: Sacrifice, Psychology, AcceptanceThe 12th house is about all that we go through in order to make our dreams into reality andmanifest them in the world around us. It covers what we are willing to put up with, thesacrifices we will make in order to bring across what is really important. This is connected toprisons, institutions, betrayal, self-undoing, and the like, because it is here that we must chooseto take some possible abuse for the sake of the message we are carrying, or blow it all awaywith a negative reaction.Twelfth HouseCancer is the mother of the zodiac, always making a home, protecting and providing forothers. A sensitive sign where feelings and real experience count more than cold logic. Itdoesn't get any more physical and emotional than here. This sign has a sense of substance, ahome base or foundation. Cancer energy is always limiting, bringing us down to Earth,grounding our every thought in experience, in substance.CancerPsychology -- in particular group work -- is one area that you can always look to for supportand encouragement. You may find yourself counseling or ministering to others, helping them tounderstand and accept their lives.Moon in Twelfth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 32

These include where planets fall by element (earth, air, fire, or water signs), modality (cardinal, fixed, ormutable signs), or house (angular, succedent, or cadent). Also included are positive and negative (odd oreven) signs. Generally a nice, even distribution is favored, but a preponderance or a lack of any oneflavors a chart in a particular fashion.Throughout, lack of any element will find the native seeking out those who have extra of the same tomake up for it. Those who lack water tend to be attracted to very emotionally sensitive types, for instance,which can seem a strange contradiction, since they don't seem to belong together or communicate well.Similarly, airless types may seek more professorial companions to explain things they don't know andprobably won't understand, anyway. The fireless are often attracted to religion and find themselvesstudying the sermon which everyone else knew to ignore in favor of the choir. Earthless are the leastconcerned about making up for their lack, and tend to move blissfully ahead, oblivious to their risks --possibly because they either succeed wildly against the odds, or perish without further ado because ofthem.Elemental BalancesElemental BalanceFire0Water3¡ ¦ ªEarth3¥ ¨ ©Air4¢ £ ¤ §Fire:This element concerns inspiration and change, and lots of it makes forgood orators, preachers, singers, motivators, or anything that setspeople on fire and elevates the spirit. Lack of the element may leavethe native unmoved by the usual hype but also not easily stirred whenaspiring to be, as in spiritual quests.Earth:This lends solidity and reliability to a chart, keeps your feet on theground. A total lack of earth makes for a people who can be extremerisk takers because they don't really know better. They go whereangels fear to tread, and those same angels bear them up lest theydash their foot upon a stone -- on a really good day, that is.Air:This enables thought and communication, the intellectual side of things.A lot of air makes for a rather cerebral type, whereas lack of air meansthat explaining things may be meaningless. Results, not talk, gut-levelor emotional evaluation may take precedence over logic and careful,explainable planning.Water:This is all about the ability to sense and communicate feelings, and lotsof water makes for emotional types. Lack of water tends to lead toemotional cluelessness, a problem of not being about to pick up theusual social cues and unconscious gestures, leading to embarrassmentor faux pas without intending or expecting it.Chart Balances: Swampys Knowflake Page 2Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307Modal BalancesModal BalanceCard4¡ ¥ ¨ ©Fixed6¢ £ ¤ ¦ § ªMut.0Cardinal:Lots of this makes for a very assertive personality, someone who stepsinto the breach even if, perhaps, there isn't one. It's great for situationswhere independence is a virtue and occasional toe-stepping is nottaken too severely. None at all tends to make for a more retrenchedpersonality, or one who opts for multiple choice and nuances, not thefirst solution that comes to hand.Fixed:Lots of this makes people, well, fixed. They take a stance and stand byit, right or wrong. They make staunch friends, determined fools, butsometimes repeat themselves too much and have a hard timerecognizing or accepting change. Lack of it makes for a dearth offollow-through and dependability, inability to stay the course.Mutable:Lots of this makes for tremendous flexibility, the ability to take all sidesof an issue and skillfully switch horses in mid-stream. It's all aboutnuance and how quickly the multiple elements of a situation changetheir qualities. Lack of it tends to make for lack of diplomacy or even anunderstanding of the need for it – sometimes lack of manners, simplyfor being unable to understand what kind applies to the situation.House BalancesHouse BalanceAng.2§ ªSuc.2¨ ©Cad.6¡ ¢ £ ¤ ¥ ¦Angular:Planets here are considered stronger, and lots of angularity makes for amore immediate, forceful presence. None at all tends to createwallflowers, or at least those who don't jump for the first dance.Succedent:Planets here are considered more durable but slower to manifest, andlots of them make for greater long-term vision and action. Lack of itleans toward haste or hesitation, people who are on the leading ortrailing edges of the action but not really at the heart of it.Cadent:Planets here are traditionally thought to be weaker, or at least lessactive compared to other places, and they tend to manifest later ratherthan sooner. It's great for fence-sitting and avoiding ill-fatedbandwagons by never actually getting on one or at least getting off fast.A lack here makes for less flexibility and a certain inability to cover yourback.Chart Balances: Swampys Knowflake Page 3Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307House Elemental BalancesHouse ElementsFire2¨ ©Water2¡ ªEarth4¢ £ ¤ ¥Air2¦ §Fire Houses:With the Fire Houses emphasized, either being the largest or smallest,you will find that self-confidence or self-consciousness will be of criticalimportance to you and you will struggle to keep a positive self-image inorder to accomplish what you wish.Earth Houses:With the Earth Houses emphasized, the work you do and the things youown will provide the security you need to establish your position in thisworld.Air Houses:With Emphasized Air Houses you will need relationships with otherpeople to realize your own potential.

He was awriter and editor for the two largest astrological magazines of the time. His two books, HeavenKnows What and Astrology for the Millions , were the first astrological books to become bestsellers and even today, over fifty years later, they remain among the best introductions to thesubject of astrology.The astrological interpretations found in Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millionswere unique, fresh, and simple. Llewellyn George, the prominent astrologer of the time, remarkedthat Lewi's interpretations must be intuitive because they were unlike any that had been writtenbefore him. Today these interpretations remain energetic and forceful and, though some referencesare now dated, Lewi's text still provides some of the clearest insights found anywhere in theliterature of astrology.Lewi was determined to make astrology more accessible to the average person, but whilepopularizing 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 hisinterpretations to the information found there. Lewi would have made good use of the computer, somuch in his books seem to anticipate them. In his writing he tried to emulate the interpretationprocess by using a computerless version of artificial intelligence: the meaning of a planet in a signdoesn't stand alone but is modified by the other aspects found in your chart. Many of his commentsdepend on a combination of factors and for this reason you will sometimes find that he hassomething different to say about an aspect in your chart than he does for the same aspect in yourfriend's chart.This report calculates your chart for you and then collects all of Lewi's comments strictlyaccording to the astrological factors found there. The text contained here is valid even for thosewho don't know their time of birth - Lewi focused on those factors that are in effect throughout thebirthday. The only exception to this is the case of the Moon which can move between 12 and 14degrees in a day, so if the positions were calculated for noon then the Moon could be as much as 6or 7 degrees different and possibly even change signs. If you don't know your time and the textsthat involve the Moon seem unlikely, you may wish to compare reports done for the beginning andthe 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 moresatisfying and fulfilling life. Astrology offers indications and pointers - and sometimes insights - tosituations that you find in life. It doesn’t tell you what to do about them, but if it offers you a betterunderstanding of the situation, then you are in a better position to decide for yourself what to do. Toquote Grant Lewi:"It is not limitations that eats out the heart, but inaction, the knowledge of powers not used, thesense of having failed to develop to the utmost. The overcoming of fate is not the overcoming ofIntroduction Page 3Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakelimitations: that is impossible. It is the exercise of free will, the assertion of the full self, expandingto its utmost with the tools at hand, in the circumstances that are set. Astrology, through theinterpretation of the horoscope, assists men to the achievement of their maximum by indicating tothem 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 BirthYour horoscope of birth is the blueprint of your personality and character as indicated by theposition of the Sun, the Moon and the eight planets on the date of your birth. This section isdevoted 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 Sunand Moon. No planet will ever cause you to act counter to the testimony of the Sun and Moon intheir 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 areyour character, your basic nature, which the planets will help or hinder but cannot materiallychange.According to the sign position of your Sun, one planet will be more important than the othersand should probably be read first. Your Sun is in Aquarius and your dominant planet is Saturn (andUranus). Not only the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also theattribute 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 aworking unit depends on your keeping this in mind, which will enable you to weld all the readingsinto a unified and significant whole.Sun in Aquarius and Moon in Cancer(You belong to the positive or executive group.)You are an ultra-social person, needful of companionship and very sensitive, both in your ownfeelings and perceptions and with regard to the feelings of others. You have an almost uncannyfaculty for responding to other people, with the result that you are extremely popular. You probablyhave unusual hereditary endowments and position, but this doesn't prevent you from endearingyourself to those in all walks of life. For there's a touch of the true democrat here that all thesheltering in the world cannot down. Servants love you and you do much to deserve their love. Inworldly matters this quality has a good commercial value; you are able to be yourself withoutequivocation and at the same time to make people like you and pay you well. Thus, whether youare in business, politics, or the arts, you appeal to a wide circle. You are tactful in speech andwriting and able to calculate nicely the effect of what you say. Your impulses and intuitions bearHoroscope of Birth Page 4Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakethe. stamp of practical good sense, although your ideas are likely to be visionary. You feel with fargreater accuracy than you think; your creations have emotional rather than intellectual appeal. Thisdoesn't mean that you haven't a good mind, for your mind is quick, facile, penetrating, with a touchof the inspirational; but it does mean that your emotions are capable of running away with yourintellect and of leading you into paths that are not rationally defensible. You are a romantic, and nomatter in what walk of life or occupation you may be found, a personal adventurous feelingunderlies all that you say or do or think.You rise to considerable influence. You have a powerful personality bound to be recognizedand appreciated.SunThe Sun indicates the appearance you will present before the world and the psychological biaswhich will dominate your actions. What you seem, and why, are told in the reading for your Sun. Inmany 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 departvery far from the basic solar pattern. For this reason a whole literature and a whole business havegrown up around Sun-sign astrology; and many people exist who think there is nothing more to thehoroscope than knowing what "sign you were born in" and what the Sun in that sign means. This isa mistake, as you will discover when you have read the influence of the other bodies. Butthroughout your reading, keep in mind always the basic influence of the Sun, and remember that allother influences must be interpreted in terms of it, especially in so far as other influences play avisible role in your life. You may think, dream, imagine, hope to be a thousand things, according toyour Moon and your other planets, but the Sun is what you are, and to be your best self in terms ofyour Sun is to cause your energies to work along the path in which they will have maximum helpfrom planetary vibrations.Sun in Aquarius"God must have loved the common people; he made so many ofthem.""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 thewarm courage of national unity; with the clear consciousness ofseeking old and precious moral values; with the keen satisfaction thatcomes 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, January30, 1882.Horoscope of Birth Page 5Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeThe motivating force behind Aquarius is some form of the gregarious, or herd, instinct. He likesfolks. He is sociable. In a higher manifestation, he is social. In a lower manifestation, he thinks thatthe world - the folks - owe him a living. Any way you look at the Aquarian, and whatever Aquarianyou look at, you will find folks at the censor of his attitude. Either he depends on them or theydepend on him. The sign can go either way. Whether he is a social reformer, or a hobo, people willbe around him; he will be holding them up, or they will be holding him up. He thinks himself agreat 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, solvetheir problems, give his life for theirs in a figurative or literal sense. Or he may fritter away his timein 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 thesocial professions: invention, medicine, law, politics, architecture, literature, science, music or artwith 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 martyrsand benefactors of the human race. Aquarius is generally misunderstood even when he hasachieved 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, ifindependent, and resentful of intrusion on his private studies, which may irk the spouse becausethey never seem to produce anything except big electric light bills. Aquarius the social or sociablecan be anything or nothing, but the one thing he will almost never be is lonesome. He may think hisspirit yearns for understanding, but he will never be far from someone to listen while he attempts toexplain himself.Following are the aspects to your Sun. In a general way, the trines and sextiles to your Sunmake 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 ofwhether the Sun receives squares or trines, along with the conjunction. Similarly, squares and trinesto the Sun together bring success through work and perseverance, and luck develops in proportionto the work done and the effort extended.Sun Conjunct Venus Orb: 02°23'You are popular, a favorite with the other sex, with a robust magnetism and fire to yourpersonality that comes from high good spirits, and a sort of all-pervading optimism and goodfellowship. In a woman's horoscope this will give you more than your share of admirers, and theywill have good financial and social backgrounds; girls with this position generally marry abovetheir station without sacrificing love. Women under this aspect frequently trip to the altar with theboss or his son. In a man's horoscope you are a favorite with women, lucky in love and in otherthings too; loyal, devoted, and ardent, the prototype of the Great Lover. Idealism lends a curiousglamour 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 idealisticthan that - the appeal of a Janet Gaynor rather than of a Mae West. You love nice things and havean exquisite, as well as a lavish, taste. In both emotional and material matters this is a highlyintensifying influence and will heighten and tend to improve any other aspects to the Sun or toVenus.Horoscope of Birth Page 6Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeSun Conjunct Mars Orb: 07°44'Little boys and girls with this aspect are generally known as "fresh kids" and more likely thannot they never get over it. You are marked by a certain audacity - you speak out your mind at thedrop of a hat - and not very tactfully either. You don't know the meaning of the word fear, either ina physical or a mental sense. You will attack a roaring lion bare-handed, or endeavor to debate alegal point with a Supreme Court justice - all with the same aggressive assurance in your ownability. This is admirable, but it isn't always good sense. You come in for a good many trimmingsboth verbal and otherwise, through an unwise selection of opponents, and throughout life you haveto be careful of trying to push over stone walls with your head. You're the kid who wouldn't hollerUncle no matter how your arm was being twisted.With Sun square Jupiter these traits areemphasized dangerously so that quarrels and enmities beset you. With Mercury conjunct Saturn thedangers of your aggressiveness are much moderated, and self-confidence and courage bring successthrough your own efforts. In any case, you will have to curb aggressiveness which can range frommere cockiness to downright ego mania. You have abundant energies both mental and physical. Itis 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 shouldremember when you are tempted to do or say something bold that "fools rush in where angels fearto tread." Your vigorous personality and quick mind will carry you far when you have learned toovercome the quirks of your own nature. In a woman's horoscope this generally brings troublethrough men. If you marry a girl with this aspect prepare to let her rule the roost.Sun Square Jupiter Orb: 06°13'You are full of vitality, good spirits, and fun. You are likely to waste - your energies and yourmoney in having a good time, for this is a happy-go-lucky position and adds a lift and verve even toa pretty sober nature. It generally accompanies comfortable worldly status and keeps bringing in theshekels, even if you manage to get rid of them pretty quickly. You have a great deal of pride. Socialprestige is important to you and you feed your vanity on it. You are still genial and humane andwill gladly help people in distress, for a goodly amount of charity accompanies this aspect. Youlove food and drink and tend to overindulge. You are lavish with your expenditures not only ofmoney, 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, butthrough 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 yourfortunes, will have an effect on your health through blood disorders, gout, diabetes, or one of theailments that goes with excess.Sun Sextile Pluto Orb: 09°06'Your desire to live life to the fullest helps you to learn easily and to make any changesnecessary to achieve your ends, which are likely to bring advancement both to you and thosearound you. Your magnetism helps to attract the people and circumstances that you need tosucceed, building your self-confidence and ensuring that you will make a personal mark oneverything you touch or do. Your desire is to make an impression through your profession, whichshould benefit from your strong leadership abilities. You can become a bridge-builder, unifyingothers in an effort to make substantial changes in their environment.Horoscope of Birth Page 7Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeMoonWhile the Sun's position by sign determines what motives and urges dominate your life as itmeets the naked eye, the sign position of the Moon tells the desire of your heart which may or maynot be expressed or realized in your life. When you "know what you mean but you can't say it," it isyour Moon that knows it and your Sun that can't say it. "Thoughts that do often lie too deep fortears" are the thoughts of your Moon's nature. The wordless ecstasy, the mute sorrow, the secretdream, the esoteric picture of yourself that you can't get across to the world, or which the worlddoesn't comprehend or value - these are the products of the Moon in your horoscope. When you aremisunderstood, it is your Moon nature, expressed imperfectly through the Sun sign, that you feel isbetrayed. When you know what you ought to do, but can't find the right way to do it, it is yourMoon that knows and your Sun that refuses to react in harmony. Also, when you "don't know why Isaid that," it was your Moon expressing despite your Sun (if you are innerly satisfied with theinvoluntary speech), or the Sun expressing against the will of the Moon (if you are displeased withwhat has slipped out). Things you know without thought - intuitions, hunches, instincts - are theproducts of the Moon. Modes of expression that you feel are truly your deepest self belong to theMoon: art, letters, creative work of any kind; sometimes love; sometimes business. Whatever youfeel 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 CancerYou take yourself very seriously, as a person to be reckoned with. You feel that you understandothers and that you deserve to be understood yourself; yet you frequently feel misunderstood.Things are very clear to you; your intuitions are powerful, and whether right or wrong, theyconvince you utterly and are likely to control your actions. Sometimes your hunches are away offthe track, especially if emotions are involved. You regard your inner nature as something precious,to be guarded from the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune," and are all too likely to think theslings and arrows are aimed at you when no one else in the world is thinking about you. You exudea desire to be understood, to be loved - also, to understand, and to love, if you have objectified yourapproach, which you must do if you are to be happy or successful. Your tendency is to withdraw, tomeditate, and meditation often turns to brooding, brooding to depression. Activate your sympathiesby becoming interested in others. Deserve their understanding by acting so that they can understandwith approval. Forget yourself, your emotions, your reactions; harness your instincts to otherpeople's problems or to creative work in business, science or the arts. To use, to become, to prove,to love must replace in your nature the deep tendency to be content with to have, to be, to know, toexpect. No doors are closed to you when you have turned your understanding outward to the world- and no doors are open to you when you turn it exclusively inward. Know your self first, throughpain and struggle if necessary, and once you know it, don't brood about it; get to know somethingelse.Following are the aspects to your Moon. Look to the trines and sextiles to give you charm andclear-thinking; and to the squares and oppositions to provide you with concentration and drivingforce.Horoscope of Birth Page 8Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeMoon Opposite Sun Orb: 06°57'The square aspect between the Sun and Moon energizes the mentality giving drive, force, andquickness to the mind, and tends to objectify the desires (unless Sun is in Aries and Moon in Libra,Sun in Pisces and Moon in Virgo). It adds quickness and perceptive power to whatever otherintellectual gifts are indicated, and warns of letting the mind run ahead of the body and exhaust it.Frequently this indicates some difficulty between the parents around the time of your birth—personal or financial tension in the family or in the family environment. An environmental orhereditary bias is set up giving one of those psychological quirks which makes for success. Rapidmental development follows, and success through ability to objectify and depersonalize your life bymental processes.Moon Opposite Venus Orb: 09°19'This aspect doesn't make you very sociable and is likely to impair popularity by making youscornful of the things that have to be done to achieve it. Your attitude is that you just won't bebothered - if they want you, let them come for you. You have to learn to go out of your way morefor people. The truth of the matter is that you are sensitive, have a sort of inferiority complex aboutyour popularity, and dread the idea of pushing yourself forward, with the result that periodically,through sheer discouragement, you push yourself in the wrong way and at the wrong time. Lookaround you at the people who are well liked and try to take a leaf from their book. This is a difficultaspect for material matters, for you spend money foolishly, and have to cultivate good businesssense. You are a real spendthrift at heart; getting rid of money amounts to a genius with you. Youare emotionally temperamental and can weep buckets when you are hurt, or when you realizeyou've hurt someone else; for you are gentle, and wouldn't willfully hurt anyone. But for all that,you do.Moon Opposite Mars Orb: 00°47'You started out in life like a house afire - all energy and intelligence and even brilliance, forthis is the aspect of the child who is thought to be a genius in his early and formative years. Yourmind was quick, apt, facile, expressive, and able to absorb and give back knowledge readily, so thatyou were the delight of your parents and teachers, giving promise of great achievement in later life.In many ways you were extraordinarily precocious throughout youth; and at any time in life youpossess an exceptional mentality and great possibilities. Your mind is analytic and scientific ratherthan artistic and creative; and although the creative urge is powerful, the creative force is notusually present with this configuration. Anything that requires knowledge, factual application,technical ease, or critical insight, is your forte, and in these fields you can go far. As a scientist,mathematician, critic, or technician, your mind is invaluable, and the independence and originalityof your thought processes enable you to forge to the front. There is with this aspect some dangerthat after the first glow and flush of youth is past, the great urge to better and improve yourself willin some subtle and inexplicable way be dissipated and lost. A sort of mental inertia may settle overyou in which accomplishment becomes difficult. It requires a tremendous amount of will power tobring the promise of this aspect to fruition. There is a tendency to relax internally, with an intimateknowledge of your own worth as your pillow, and forget that no worth is worth anything if it is notmade apparent in the world as it is. You can overcome this inertia. This is a position also of greatnervous tension, of the sort which is classically supposed to accompany genius. You may beHoroscope of Birth Page 9Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflaketempted to seek escape from this tension in a variety of artificial anodynes - either in simpledaydreaming and imagining what you might be or what you have been or what you are going to be;or in the more concrete escapes, which are also the more dangerous escapes. Liquor or alcohol inany form is poison to you, either to your digestive tract, or to your psychic, mental, and nervousstate. Similarly, you should avoid the use of any drug or soporific stronger, let us say, than aspirin,and seek to find the solution to your tensions in more constructive mediums. You should practicerelaxation deliberately. Get plenty of sleep, and in every way try to cut down the stress of yourexistence, both internal and external. You have tremendous possibilities - perhaps even genius - andyou owe it to yourself and the world to make the most of them. You have an extraordinary mind,capable of any heights of achievement. You are a genius.Moon Opposite Uranus Orb: 06°47'You have had a high temper in your day, and if you've controlled it the credit goes to your goodsense. You are rebellious, headstrong, abrupt in speech, quick on the draw - a sort of hair-triggerpersonality, full of fire and dash that need the control of a vigorous intellect. A sort of perpetualconfusion hangs over you, and you have a hard time getting the straight of your own nature. This isone of the marks of the advanced thinker, the Bohemian who is a law unto himself and must make aconscious 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 ironedout. A great individualist, you none the less believe that society has duties to is members, that theirindividuality may be able to thrive the better. You are ardent in your loves, idealistic and impulsiveand capable of deep loyalties through which, however, you can see the faults of the beloved - andsay so in no uncertain terms. Tact is something you have to learn, for your uncompromisingtruthfulness and honesty make tact seem wasted time to you. You are sensitive of the feelings ofothers, and once your high-spiritedness is reined you are the most sympathetic and understandingof friends.Moon Opposite Neptune Orb: 08°27'This impairs the creative gifts, and your manner of thought and expression, intruding anunrealistic 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 bemarvelous - if you or anyone else could make them happen. This adds a sort of naive charm to yournature. You can believe in fairies, Santa Claus and ghosts, just as others can believe in HerbertHoover, and your perpetual love for the mystic will intrigue those who love the innocent, thechildish, the unspoiled. But all this doesn't help you much in the world of affairs, and an impracticalapproach to many things will stand in the way of your progress until such a time as you get yourfeet on the ground and hitch your wagon to a fence post.Moon Trine Pluto Orb: 02°09'Quality, not quantity, is the hallmark of your emotional make-up. You like having a few closefriends rather than spreading your feelings and loyalties thinly over a wide variety of people. Youare apt to be fair in your judgments of others, evaluating inner qualities rather than superficial traits.Warmth, loyalty and devotion mark your emotional reactions. You are protective of loved onesHoroscope of Birth Page 10Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakewithout smothering them.MercuryMercury is the sense-impression antennae of your horoscope. His position by sign indicatesyour reactions to sights, sounds, odors, tastes and touch impressions, affording a key to the attitudeyou have toward the physical world around you. Mercury is the messenger through which yourphysical body and brain (the Sun) and your inner nature (the Moon) are kept in contact with theouter world, which will appear to you according to the index of Mercury's position by sign in thehoroscope.Mercury in AquariusAll your senses are keen, alert, strong and sensitive. There is a robustness about yourcontemplation of the real world that is not injured by a very keen sense of beauty. Your greatability is to see beauty in things without finding it necessary to deny their reality. Conversely, youmake all useful things as beautiful as possible and thus believe in the utility of art and the art ofutility. Nothing real is likely to be offensive to you if it has a use; you will smell the odors of apigsty less than others because you are thinking of bacon rather than of filth. But on the other hand,the beauty of an army will leave you cold because you will shudder at the slaughter. Your sensereactions are conditioned by a rugged and realistic approach to experience that causes you to regardeverything you see, hear and touch in the light of your appraisal of its utilitarian and artistic merits,and little reaches you through the senses without passing through this nicely balanced court ofvalues.Mercury Square Jupiter Orb: 08°49'You love to spin yarns - harmless yarns, to be sure, but highly exaggerated and colored; nothingever loses any fat in the telling when you tell it. Though you worship educated and intellectualpeople, your own mind is not highly trained. You are capable of error in judgment throughmisconception of the facts, misinterpretation of the facts, exaggerated notions, or just plainignorance. You are likely to barge ahead in a plan or an idea without any least notion of theunderlying necessities of the situation. You aren't easy to persuade that you are wrong, for evenwhen faced with evidence, you have a way of sticking to your guns though your ammunition isgone.Mercury Conjunct Saturn Orb: 07°54'You have a deep, precise, and above all serious mental outlook, ranging from the profound tothe melancholy but never frivolous or light. Knowledge is sacred to you. The Law is the Law. Youstick by the Code as you understand it. With your Mercury square Jupiter the sobriety of this aspectis preserved; you are still profound and deep-running enough but the depth may turn to trickery inmental processes and the moral sense be somewhat upset. You are an impressive speaker andlogician, whether you're fighting on the side of the angels or against them. A certain power andauthority, amounting almost to pompousness, attaches to your manner of speech. You don't merelysay things, you state them; and this has its effect on your listeners, who will have to have strongHoroscope of Birth Page 11Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakewills not to fall in line with your subtle reasoning. You can outguess most people, and, beingsuspicious, are rarely fooled. You have it in you to bamboozle the world. Nobody is ever going tosell you any gold bricks or phony oil stock.Mercury Square Pluto Orb: 05°53'You tend to be dogmatic, stubbornly resisting change and other people's ideas. In your earlyyears, you may have rebelled against the discipline of learning; now, you may consider yourselfslow or stupid, when your only problems are a lack of openness to new ideas and a lack ofconcentration. Once you apply your mind to the subjects that are important to you, you can becomea self-made person. You should think before you speak, since you can put people off with anunintentional brusqueness. Intentional sharpness or sarcasm when angry can lose you the supportyou've worked hard to gain. Be as sensitive to other people's feelings as you are to your own. Oneof the major lessons you must learn is how to accept constructive criticism.VenusVenus is the emotional antenna of your horoscope. Through Venus, impressions come to youfrom the outer world because of which you feel and react emotionally. The position of Venus bysign at the time of your birth gives the key to your attitude toward these emotional experiences. AsMercury is the messenger linking sense impressions (sight, smell, etc.) to the basic nature of yourSun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same signwith your Sun; emotions gain importance in your life, having a direct bearing on your actions andgenerally causing you to put your best foot forward. Venus is in the same sign with Mercury,emotion impressions and sense impressions work together; you tend to idealize the world of thesenses and to sensualize the world of the emotions, to interpret emotionally what you see and hear,and perhaps through this to become proficient in one of the arts.Venus in AquariusYour emotional responses are frank and heartfelt, even when they are directed towardgeneralizations and groups, as they often are, or toward art in some form. Your emotions serve youraesthetic sense; you are capable of a detached and spiritual form of personal love which you relateto beauty rather than to passion. You worship beauty concretely and in the abstract; and can wantnothing 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 thoughtimmodest. You are sensuous, but not sensual; your emotions feed on the stimuli of eye, ear and theolfactory senses; less on touch. You belong to the perpetually pure of heart, and because of thisyour emotional responses to individuals are high-minded and beautiful in the extreme, and can betransmuted into the pure gold of universalized love by the alchemy of your spiritual strength.Venus Square Jupiter Orb: 03°50'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 offunds and spend freely for love or for pleasure. If you are a man gold-diggers find you easy prey;Horoscope of Birth Page 12Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeand 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.MarsMars is the energy principle in the horoscope. His position by sign indicates the channels intowhich energy will naturally flow, and the uses to which energy will most easily be directed. It is theplanet 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 theemotional impressions of Venus.Mars in CapricornYou have practical control over your energies, which normally express themselves in a way thatpromotes your highest and most worldly aspirations. Controlled actions and speech come naturallyto you; your vitality works well in the harness of the world as it is, and you can master details aswell as the executive functions. You are tactful in a proud sort of way: you say the right thingwithout yielding your dignity or compromising with the truth as you see it. You are a born leader,having the first requisites of leadership: control of yourself and ability to take orders. This is one ofthe most favorable positions of Mars for worldly success, for you will rarely do anything thatinterferes with your security, or with security's broader manifestation, desire for power; and in oneway or another, authority will accumulate in your hands if you don't block the free flow of yourvitality with too much self confidence. You can afford to "sit loose in the saddle of fate" in theassurance that your mount will carry you where you want to go, and you should respect the steedby sparing whip and spur.Mars Conjunct Uranus Orb: 06°00'You have a strong personality and are a little cold and impersonal. You are mental rather thanemotional in your bias toward life; capable, and quick in your perceptions. You are best whenworking in impersonal matters for your emotions are inaccurate and unreliable and (as the palmistssay) you should let the head rule the heart. This makes good leaders, teachers, and governmentofficials. Personal considerations don't interfere with what you have to do. You can be hard andeven cruel if it suits your purposes. While you can be kind in theory and to groups, you are capableof being unkind in personal dealings and of hurting those who love you. A sort of rigidity pervadesyour emotions, and you have difficulty in unbending. There is something a little forbidding aboutyou. You are especially prone to have a periodically high temper. Health is a problem.Mars Conjunct Neptune Orb: 07°40'The most powerful magnetic aspect in the horoscope. You have poise, charm, ability, powerover people - and a determination to get ahead in the world that rarely fails to succeed. Your aimsare definite, and your physical, mental, and intuitive powers work in unison to help you. You havea superstitious belief in many things including your own powers, and something of the magicianhovers about you. Doors open at your word, men obey you, and the good things of the world cometo you. You live up to the hilt of your possibilities and appear to have a guardian angel at your side,Horoscope of Birth Page 13Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeholding you to your task and encouraging you. You are selfish and self-centered, but you thinkthese are virtues. You are capable of being pretty ruthless in the pursuit of what you are after. Youwill go very far; with luck on your side you make or find opportunities readily. There is muchdifficulty through sex matters. This is a powerful position to have and, with any degree of will atall, it will give you something of the power over the world that the Magic Lamp gave to Aladdin.Mars Sextile Pluto Orb: 01°22'You work like a detective or researcher, taking an idea or project and pursuing it until yourunderstanding has penetrated to its core. You may not react quickly and there are times when youdon't act at all; what is important to you is effectiveness and efficiency. If anyone can find theshortest distance between two points, it is you. This isn't an index of laziness; it is a measure ofyour desire not to waste time, energy or resources.JupiterJupiter is the feeler you have out in the world for opportunity. Through it the chances of alifetime are passed along for consideration according to the basic nature of Sun and Moon. Jupiter'ssign position indicates the places in which you will look for opportunity, the uses to which youwish to put it, and the capacity you have to react to and profit by it. Jupiter is ordinarily, anderroneously, called the Planet of Luck. It is "luck" in so far as it is the index of opportunity; butyour luck depends less on what comes to you (Jupiter) than on what you do with it (the totalpersonality). Opportunity appeals to you along lines laid down by your Jupiter.Jupiter in ScorpioYou relate opportunity to deep personal needs, and are generally successful because there is noinharmony between the inner nature and what the outer world makes important. The lens of thespirit eliminates what would make unhappiness and follows instinctively what satisfies. This is agood position for acquiring and spending money; you give a sort of magical effect of being theright man (or woman) for the job that is open, if the job happens to appeal to you; and you proceedto make it your own in a curiously effective way. All the primary instincts merge in your approachto work and give you a high degree of efficiency. When you're where you want to be, you workeasily, authoritatively, gaining the respect of superiors and subordinates. Opportunity flows to younaturally; and an inherent wisdom enables you to select your right niche. You're not likely to be asquare peg in a round hole; and you are very likely to be successful in whatever you put your mindon.Jupiter Sextile Neptune Orb: 08°24'This adds to the spiritual insight, increasing any latent intuitive faculties and enabling you togive practical application to your hunches. Aids creative artists by adding charm and facility totheir expression and by making it salable. Helps business men by enabling them to follow theirhunches to good advantage. Aids all those who deal with people (professional men, politicians) byadding a peculiar magnetism to the personality and making them appear jovial, humanitarian, andcharitable.Horoscope of Birth Page 14Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeSaturnSaturn 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 horoscopeof birth. With Saturn in the same sign as Sun, defense predominates, and there is danger ofintroversion. The further Saturn is from Sun, Moon and Ascendant, the better for objectivity andextroversion. Saturn is in the same sign with your Mercury, you have profound and serious reactionto sense impressions; this position generally accompanies a deep and efficient mind. Saturn is in thesame sign with your Venus, your defensive attitude toward emotional experience makes forapparent coolness in low, and difficulty through the emotions and human relations; you areconservative in finance, and generally "lucky-in-cards-unlucky-in-love".Saturn in AquariusYou seek self-justification and acclaim and material success very much as Saturn in Capricorn,but aren't likely to be so hard boiled about it. Saturn in Aquarius wants fame, recognition andpower, but is more concerned with keeping the good opinion of other people in getting it and willrarely if ever hurt them. This position adds gentleness and strength to any chart: the ego requiresthe approval of society for its own justification - requires the good opinion of men more than theirobedience, and is willing to trade respect for love. The social urge in this way is strong, and Saturnin Aquarius will spend a lot of time justifying its transgressions (which may be numerous) andmaking explanations and excuses for shortcomings. Since society is important to you, you tend toassume that you are important to society, and if your whole chart is very passive, you may come tothink that it owes you a living and that your existence is best justified when you are collectingunearned increment. This is an inversion of the urge to serve society which is the bestSaturn-in-Aquarius type of self-vindication. If this goes into reverse, you're vindicated when youenable society to demonstrate its goodness with you as the recipient. To cultivate the social urgeson their positive side, to seek the approval of men for progressive and constructive works, to acceptresponsibility to society as your true means of self-justification, is to live up to the best of thisidealistic position of Saturn.Saturn Square Pluto Orb: 02°02'You may feel that the burdens of the world rest on your weary and fragile shoulders. With thispessimistic attitude, you can identify opportunities as obstacles and thus exaggerate the slightlytroublesome things that do happen to you. This view restricts your ability to achieve yourambitions. A refusal to accept responsibilities works against long-range happiness and success. Fora winning attitude, try to see that everyone has obligations to live up to, not just you. Also, learn towork more willingly with other people.UranusUranus in a general way relates to the neuro-mentality, creative originality or individuality, andhis position by sign in the horoscope tells the direction along which you will seek to express yourmost characteristic self in creative and original effort. With Uranus in the same sign with Mars,Horoscope of Birth Page 15Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakeUranus indicates high speed activity, love of swift motion and perhaps of danger.Uranus in CapricornCapricorn is the so-called World sign and it is natural that the genius Uranus therein shouldproduce a generation that would upset old traditions. With this position, you are likely to feel thatyou are giving expression to your truest genius in rebellion against things as they are, or as theywere, for you still remember the revolt against conventions that occupied your youth, when to bepart of the general iconoclasm of the day was considered personally daring. Mass individualism isthe product of Uranus in Capricorn. To progress from the conventional unconventionality to trulyfinding yourself and your individual expression has been quite a task. When you find it, you willdiscover that your great contribution must be along lines of social progress, probably quiteconservative 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°40'Children born with this conjunction are natural mind readers, and they also seem to know whatwill happen. It is difficult to give them a surprise birthday party, as they somehow know thatsomething is up. It is important to support the development of these powers, as they can languishand cause trouble if misunderstood. Travel is a given with this aspect.Uranus Sextile Pluto Orb: 04°38'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 tocultivate a more constructive outlet for your energies than you naturally have. Some energizingfactor within the horoscope - squares in general but, more importantly, squares from Mars - will beneeded if you are to actualize your creative potential. Otherwise, you are too likely to coast throughwith what comes easiest for you.NeptuneNeptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality,indicating what you take deeply for granted in life. With Neptune in the same sign with Mars, thereis energy and intuition that work together to make mastery of life - one of the signs of havingangels (or devils) on your side.Neptune in CapricornThis 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 apenchant for fuzzy-headed schemes (the motives of which are always mixed). A barrage ofleveraged buy-outs has sent the corporate world into a dither, and there is generally an attraction toconspiring against institution, fraudulently if necessary. There is heightened perception ofopportunity, and the wherewithal to take advantage of it. Neptune always has a strong Pisces side,Horoscope of Birth Page 16Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeregardless what sign it is in, and connotes integration of the life function, a translation ofconsciousness from what is possible to what is real. Pisces is also the sign of boundaries. All tooeasily, with Neptune in Capricorn, you lose yourself in pursuit of opportunity. There is a naggingwarning not to sell out or bargain with alien needs. You evince a subtle martyrdom to massprerogatives. Too easily you may be tempted by peers to veer from your course. Neptune inCapricorn warns against a lack of self determination which challenges all people embarked on thequest of self-knowledge. Be careful you don't end up with agendas and priorities you don'tunderstand, much less can't execute. Regularly assess the nature of your needs. To what extent haveyou taken on dependencies or distasteful customs, having let your convictions be manipulated bythe 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. Youcompare yourself to others: athletes who think they cannot compete without steroids, teachers wholoath learning because they cannot admit any capacity for error. There is a battle of learning versussuppression. Consider the People's insurrections against repressive government throughout theworld 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 ofNeptune in Capricorn relative to these events: entrepreneurs buying up the tumbled Berlin Wall andselling it as souvenirs at $10/pound in retail stores (complete with certificate of departure). Therewere face offs between the ruthless: pragmatism and ambition of narrow-visioned political entitiesand every individual's genuine need and right for freedom. The Chinese students became Neptunein 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 atrocitieswith 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 seemthat compassion would mitigate such Darwinian mechanics, beware how quickly kindness isdiffused by the paralyzing loneliness which results from seeking salvation in otherness.Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 06°18'The ideas that were instilled in you by your parents, church and society will undergo changesthroughout your life until your religious and philosophical views are distinctly your own. This typeof creative adaptability makes you able to forgo selfish concerns and direct your efforts toward thebetterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible.PlutoPluto relates to the ability to let go of things, to get rid of irrelevant prejudices and outdatedhabit patterns. It relates to subconscious feelings, inner urges and repressed emotions. A strongPluto gives the ability to see the hidden side of life, and thus bestows power on the native - powerwhich can be used for good or ill. In the same sign as Jupiter, Pluto produces an inquisitive naturewith a desire to understand the hidden side of life.Horoscope of Birth Page 17Heaven Knows What Swampys KnowflakePluto in ScorpioAstrologers 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 dohave 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 Perihelionbetween the Sun and Pluto in September of 1989, or its closest contact to that Planet, during whichtime 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 alarmingspread 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 theimplications of what we still welcome as more open attitudes about sex. Sexual violence and rapehave also come to the fore. Hardly a day goes by when there's not some story, great or small, in thenewspaper. 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 sexualabuse within the church. Also notice, on a more positive note, people's increasing interest indiscovering the common thread in their fellow human beings and nurturing it for the better ratherthan, like their ancestors, using it for a noose. We are challenged to be more responsible toward thewelfare of each other without loosing our respect for ourselves. A mixture of directness andcompassion is the subtle key. It is an alchemical process, whereby we find the right proportion ofallegiance and maverickness, producing wisdom.Horoscope of Birth Page 18Current TransitsThe current transits are calculated exactly for the date shown. Lewi wrote text only for theaspects that he considered to be the most significant and only those are shown in this report. Thedates 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 aspectseveral times in one year before it leaves that area of the zodiac and moves on. This is due to theplanet appearing to go backward or retrograde for a period of time and crossing and recrossing theaspect point. When this happens the effect of the aspect can be spread out over a considerable timeand in this report the aspect and text will be printed for each time it becomes exact, although thisseries of aspects represents only one pass through this phase of its cycle. Remember that eachtransiting 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 itbegins to move back towards the starting point, at the 270° point, or 90° away from the startingpoint, the planet is at its "upper square", and then it returns to the conjunction point where a newcycle is begun. Lewi will occasionally refer to these points in his text by name. In general alltransits, whether of a planet to its own place or of one planet to another, mark cycles of growthbeginning at the conjunction point, growing through the first square, fully grown at the oppositionpoint, beginning to recede at the second or upper square, and finally starting a new cycle as itreaches the conjunction point again.How long any aspect will be in effect is determined by the speed of the planet making theaspect (the first planet , i.e. Mars in Mars Opposite Sun). One Mars cycle is about two or two andone-half years and so a Mars aspect will last about 20 to 30 days. Jupiter takes about 12 years forits cycle and so its aspects could last around 4 months, while Saturn with a 29 year cycle will last 9months or even more if it turns retrograde. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all long range aspectsand usually represent a time of 2 or more years. While Saturn and the outer planets indicate longrange influences in your life, Mars aspects will identify important months and Jupiter will identifyimportant years. Not every occurrence of these will be of striking importance. But within a largerSaturn cycle or Uranus period of great importance, these briefer influences will be found to act asthe second or minute hand of the clock of destiny, as Saturn, or Uranus, or both, act as the hourhand.Jan 19, 2014 - Saturn Square MercuryThis aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study andthought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which workCurrent Transits Page 19Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeand self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no goodbecomes acute. Keeping your mind on things outside yourself helps. Study, reading and writing areexcellent, though creativeness and originality fail you. Don't worry must be your motto; also Facethe facts. Escapism leads into bad nervous tangles. This is a good aspect to have while in school orcollege, when opportunity for study is greatest and the "cold, cold world" is not yet a reality thatyou have to consider. Corning later when you're out in the "cold, cold world," it indicates a periodwhen you can return to the student state to good advantage, putting your mind on objective factrather than on emotional concerns. Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraintand efficiency.Jan 31, 2014 - Mars Square UranusThis transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But atone of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace anddirection 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 undisciplinedpersons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacksdue to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of theseperiods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable andprobably nothing to be proud of.Mar 28, 2014 - Mars Square UranusThis transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife.

But the one or two may be memorable andprobably nothing to be proud of.Jul 15, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct MoonYou feel new self-assurance and are able to solve, within yourself, important problems thathave troubled you. Little may change in the external world around you, but your attitude toward itchanges. You may not be able to control what happens to you, but you achieve new dominion overyour viewpoint and in this way become master of situations and of yourself. Good healthcontributes to good spirits and a general sense of well-being. Self-reliance and self-sufficiency areyour big assets here, through which you "find yourself" significant. Allow your eyes to turn inward;define aims and desires; discover what you want from the world, in the assurance that it is to befound less in things than in your approach to them. May accompany a real "conversion of spirit"based on swift insight into yourself, and may thus mark a point at which you turn away from falsevalues to true ones and start a new life, richer and happier because based on high evaluation ofessentials.Jul 24, 2014 - Mars Square MarsThis transit indicates a period of hard work and abundant energies, which causes no troubleunless major disruptive influences are in force. There is a slight tendency to talk too much, boastand be arrogant, but the swiftness of the pace generally carries you through without major trouble.Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rule the emotions.Jul 25, 2014 - Mars Square MoonFatigue 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 andtrouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance whichmay or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time withthis.Aug 7, 2014 - Mars Square SunDomestic matters are important. This transit frequently times a move from one house (or townor locality) to another, or some important decision in the private life. New starts work out if wellconsidered and unmotivated by temperament. Social activity is increased; you have lots of friendsaround you. This is a good time to begin new ventures for quick completion, ventures which have abearing on your longer-range plans. This is a good time to clean house, redecorate, etc. The home isCurrent Transits Page 21Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakelikely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead offigurative and quarrelsome.Aug 11, 2014 - Mars Square VenusSocial and romantic glamour leads to excesses, sometimes to strife, quarrels, separations. Minorloves and friendships break up, but important relations are merely strained; and indeed thisfrequently adds glamour to a deep love, intensifying its beauty. A break here, unless contributed toby some more important transit, is a sure index that the feeling wasn't very deep or importantanyway. Avoid excess spending and stay away from temptation if you're interested in sticking tothe conventions.Aug 16, 2014 - Jupiter Opposite SunNew contacts, new modes of expression, new work, new energies and ambitions tax mind andhealth. But you overflow with vitality and optimism and can carry quite a load if you take care ofyour health and refuse to indulge your weaknesses. Partners or associates provide excitement, andalso 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 innocentindulgences mount till they are far from innocent. Human relations are glamorous; be sure they arealso sound and not built on the quick sands of temperament and sensationalism. Be ready to graspopportunity and keep your head clear so that you won't waste the chances that crowd around you.Aug 18, 2014 - Mars Conjunct JupiterOpportunities abound, and your energies are up to them. Optimism runs high, and you can bemade to color, and perhaps prophesy, the life for a long time. Work is abundant and gratifying; youare 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 goodincome, which tends to make you openhanded and generous, perhaps to a fault. Keep your eyes andears open; some of the best forward pushes of your life will come in these periods whencircumstances combine to give you the rewards of work done in the past and to open up new doorsfor the future.Sep 1, 2014 - Mars Square MercuryQuick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. Thequick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur aboutevery six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lastinggrudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent.Sep 10, 2014 - Mars Conjunct PlutoThis transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervadesotherwise 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 ofredistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emergeCurrent Transits Page 22Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakefrom this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events askeynotes of respect for structure and self-care.Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and thetendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take timeto treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a moreservice-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, thiscould be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are thenasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble.Sep 15, 2014 - Jupiter Square JupiterThese periods fall halfway between Jupiter's conjunction with his own place and his oppositionto it and indicate minor shifts in emphasis in your work and life plan. Opportunities may becomemore numerous; or, as is the case most of the time, you will simply be busy with what you aredoing, and perhaps careless of money as a result. Financial status at these periods tends to remainfixed for about three years, and you should budget ahead according to the situation you findyourself in.Oct 13, 2014 - Saturn Square MercuryThis aspect deepens mental processes, providing concentrative powers for deep study andthought. It is usually accompanied by some mild or acute melancholy and depression, which workand self-discipline will minimize. Loss of self-esteem is likely - the thought that you're no goodbecomes acute.

Finances are under tension; there is a need for budgets, restraintand efficiency.Nov 23, 2014 - Mars Conjunct NeptuneSuper intuition gives you uncanny insight into motives and methods of other people, but notalways into your own. Practice self-analysis. You swiftly feel your creative power, of which youcan make good use. Beware sensationalism, sentimentality, self-indulgence; fight subconsciousurges, suppressed desires, and make your inner ego work for you along constructive lines. This isan excellent period for creative work, for impersonal use of magnetism for business ends and aimsand for social popularity. You have glamour that attracts others: be sure it attracts the right kind ofpeople and for the right reasons. The Old Adam rears his head and may require discipline.Nov 25, 2014 - Mars Conjunct UranusExpect temperament, haste and anxiety. Your nerves require watching. These problems canlead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) fromCurrent Transits Page 23Heaven Knows What Swampys Knowflakeexcess speed and lack of care over details. Watch temperament. Accidents in the realm of humanrelations 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 overto any good advantage, and simply make trouble if you "try too hard." Store them up for a latertime when you express them better and when other people listen to you more readily. Look out formachinery, travel, electricity; avoid danger, be careful getting on and off trains and crossing streets.Current Transits Page 24
