You know it, can't stop it, and it's OK.Vertex Conjunction VenusWatch what you wish for, because even the slightest hint of desire can turn yourlife around, just because you wanted something.

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.Your keyword is responsibility -- the ability to respond. You are able to find yourself inothers, in relationships, rather than alone -- a mirror or clear pool. You can be peaceful, calm,and undisturbed. A genius at bringing out others getting them to do things, you are a bornstrategist.Sun in LibraYou communicate with consummate skill, and it is stimulating just being with you.

At these times your nonconformity and refusal to go along works against yourown best interests, making it difficult to get ahead.Sun Square UranusYou find yourself fighting to realize your ambitions amidst a sea of fuzzy dreams. A fear ofletting go (and trusting the more mystical side of yourself) keeps you hard at it. You can't seemto let yourself dream a little, don't trust your own idealizations, and struggle between your senseof ideals and your more realistic ambitions. Your practical concerns with getting ahead andfulfilling your ambitions tend to ignore your more deep-rooted ideals and dreams. You may nottrust those in authority.Sun Square NeptuneThe 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 are gregarious, even to the point of bringing out the performer in others.

This can't help but produce a strain in your relationswith others, and you probably get very little support for your detective work. These two parts ofyou which seldom meet cause constant tension, resulting in periodic explosions.Moon Square PlutoThe 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.Mercury: 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.Yours is a reflective mind, a mirror for others. You are equality-minded and easy to talkwith -- a great mediator or negotiator. You find it easy to accept the ideas and thoughts ofothers and to hear them out. You are good at relations (politics, diplomacy, sales), not tomention considerate, helpful, and courteous. Calm.Mercury in LibraYou are very bright, and you may be very proud of your mind and all that it can do. Youhave a high degree of concentration that makes you an excellent student and able to excel inspeaking, writing, and all types of communication skills.Sun Conjunction MercuryYou may have trouble with any ideas that are new and different. Your more conservativeway of thinking and expressing yourself goes against all that is radical and new. Thoughts andconcepts that break with tradition may be a hassle for you -- a constant headache. You preferthat conversations and communications stay on the accepted paths and become irritated whenthey stray from what you expect. You have a tendency to lose your temper with little warning.Mercury Square UranusPlanet Aspects Page 6Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou find talk of the other world, and mysticism in general, to be a real hassle. You struggle tokeep this and any spiritual material at bay and, like your mind, down-to-earth and quiteconventional. It may be hard for you to think about spiritual matters, much less express them inwords or thoughts. You like your dreams neat and are troubled when thoughts of other lives andwhat-not intrude. You would rather not talk about it.Mercury Square NeptuneVenus: 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.Big heart, big love, you are seldom petty. Given to grand gestures and dramatic scenes, youlove independence and greatness in all forms and are very regal. You can be generous to a fault.Children and animals are high on your list of priorities. Fervently loyal, you are courageous anddemonstrative.Venus in LeoYou have a natural love of history, different cultures, and your own past. You canappreciate the emotional and psychological side of life, and working with groups will be a toppriority. Others value you for your sense of appreciation and love.Moon Conjunction VenusYou value fairness in all things and go out of your way to be just. You appreciate otherswho have been successful and may surround yourself with those in power, be they politicians,officials, what-have-you. Your sense of quality and discrimination may amount to some sort oflivelihood for you. You could make your living with your good taste. In addition, you have aninnate sense of how to work with and guide others in making decisions. You understand thechoices and can spot the right ones.Venus Conjunction 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.Planet Aspects Page 7Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeMars: 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 have an inner urge to be all things to all people and would rather bend than argue ormake an issue. You are a natural diplomat, always courteous and concerned with the comfortand welfare of others. You stay in the background, but are able to manipulate and bring outcooperation in others every time.Mars in LibraA born coach or teacher, you are at home in the physical and "doing" areas of life. Aninspiration and driving force in the lives of others. Quite able to manage a very active andstrong emotional life. Strong spirit. Attractive. Direct, perhaps loud.Moon Sextile MarsYou hate a lack of clarity, especially when it comes to your feelings and emotions. This is aless than ideal world as far as you are concerned, and you are for making the best of it.Whatever dreams and ideals you may have had are somehow shut off from the day-to-dayrealities you face. You would rather ignore your dreams than be tortured by their remoteness.You are suspicious of pie-in-the-sky and have an abnormal fear of being deceived, in particularin matters of love and feelings. A sign of emotional tension.Mars Square NeptuneFeelings and emotions are an open book with you, and you wear your heart on your sleeve.Others may find your drive and openness threatening and aggressive.Mars Conjunction AscendantYou are very competitive -- even pushy -- when it comes to partners and other people. Youhave a great social drive and love to work in a group or with close friends.Mars Square 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 8Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeA service career is a perfect choice, for you want very much to be of use, to be used up. Youhave a fantastic appetite for detail work, and can take it all in and still look for more. Willingand able to respond to almost any emergency, you are responsible and always ready.Jupiter in VirgoA born teacher or group leader, counselor or guide. Others find it easy to take directionfrom you by example alone. You enjoy immersing yourself in a group, solving problems,raising spirits, and so on. People admire your openness and generosity.Moon Conjunction JupiterYou appreciate a winner and are drawn to the successful and powerful (politics, and such).You may make your living by virtue of your good taste, sense of quality, and discrimination.You love and value guiding others, counseling, and solving problems.Venus Conjunction JupiterYou are independent and value freedom and nonconformity. A great problem-solver, youenjoy working out new solutions, trying new things. Your career will be anything but ordinary,and leave it to you to find unusual ways of supporting yourself. You bring a lot of mental skilland understanding to whatever you do, and could teach or help others to take a moreindependent approach to their life or career. You pursue electronics, computers, and the like.Jupiter Trine UranusSaturn: 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 very methodical and practical when it comes to matters of home and family, evenat the expense of your career.Saturn Opposition MidheavenPlanet Aspects Page 9Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeThe 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 need for self-expression and independence may be at the expense of your real growth.You may rebel or find yourself bucking authority figures. It is clear to you that yourunconventionality costs you. Part of you wants to conform and go along.Sun Square UranusYou tend to carry a lot of mental energy and tension, and this can suddenly erupt whenyou're not kept busy. The way you speak, think, and use your mind can give way to sheerinsight and brilliance. At other times you may have very conventional ideas.Mercury Square UranusUnusual occupations. Hate the everyday and the rut. Instead, always finding ways to breakthrough or away from what hems you in. Value independence, personal freedom; insist uponand exist on the wildfire at the fringe or very front edge of life.Jupiter Trine UranusYou have real vision and insight into the unity that ties this world together. Your brilliantPlanet Aspects Page 10Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeimagination 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 NeptuneNeptune: 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 CapricornYou struggle between your sense of ideals and your more practical ambitions. Yourself-image and dreams are kept apart from the day-to-day practical concerns. They continue toconfront one another. Authorities may not trust you, and vice versa.Sun Square NeptuneYour ideas, thoughts, and mentality may struggle to keep a damper on a tendency towardsmysticism and the spirit. Your dreams and ideals may be difficult for you to express or talkabout, but are a source of much energy and not a little tension.Mercury Square NeptuneYou can be self-defeating, often pushing in directions that go against your own stated idealsand dreams. You have an aversion to foggy mindedness and lack of clarity, a fear of beingmisled or duped. Your feelings tend to compromise your own self-image.Mars Square 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 NeptuneYou work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are the mostpersonal or private -- depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit, assisting at thebirth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process. You accept the naturalprocess of birth, spiritual and physical, and have dedicated yourself to helping it along. Youwould make a great teacher in these areas.Neptune Sextile PlutoPlanet Aspects Page 11Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYour ideal dream is a private one, and heaven is as close as work and family. You find sociallife and the outer world harsh and unimaginative.Neptune Square AscendantPluto: 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 ScorpioEmotional stress stemming from your insistence on analysis and psychological probing atthe expense of feelings -- yours and other people's. No one will support it. Your sensitivity andvulnerability often find you at odds with the group or with others.Moon Square PlutoA searing vision that cuts through what passes for conventional religion. A vision of theendless process of life ever being born afresh. Great acceptance and faith in the natural processand next generation. Love of children and animals.Neptune Sextile PlutoThe supportive help of women or a girl can be an important factor that will affect businessor reputation and increase your sense of security. You are a fine psychologist, researcher, ordetective and are good at dealing with joint or others' finances.Pluto Trine MidheavenChallenges and AbilitiesChallenges and Abilities Page 12Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeFocusThese are areas of life where we show intense focus and activity.

Therefore, when it comes to thefollowing factors you may wish to exercise caution and extra patience.It may be difficult for you to break with convention and head out on your own. Yourambitions may well prosper, but often at the expense of any real independence and freedom.There is a switch effect: you may alternate between very conventional behavior and suddenrebellious lapses.

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 may be a very social child -- an accomplished leader at the age of even seven or eightand a real socialite in the early teens. All of this is somewhat premature, so don't be surprised ifyou lose your interest in the external, social scene during your middle teens. You will discovera more subjective you and elect to take a more inward direction. Turning away from the socialscene, you may spend many years pursuing your inner life. This more involuted and personaltime may intensify when you are 21-22 years and last until you are around 30 years of age. Atthat time you will go through a remarkable change, sort of discovering yourself all at once. Themore inward years of inner searching will pay off with new confidence and real direction. Youwill begin your real life's work after this time, and your middle years will be very strong andsuccessful.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."Oct 21, 2011 1st Pass D> (Age 20 0m)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 inLandscape: Major Life Periods Page 16Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakecareer 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?Which 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 AirYou may have trouble understanding those who seem emotional or sentimental, yet yourown practicality and factuality may attract just such types into your life. You may try to balanceyour lack of intuitiveness with logic and common sense.Want WaterYou are an aggressive prime mover, a starter, able to initiate and get things moving. Notalways hot on the follow-up, you may tend to get the ball rolling and get out to move on toThe Elements, Modalities and Angularity Page 17Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeother things.Have CardinalYou 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.You have a high burn rate (index of change) and tend to run hot and fast. It is almost likehaving many lifetimes within this single one. Things are always fast and furious with you, andyou seldom remain calm for long. Your thirst for experience and growth keeps you always onthe move. You work through an enormous amount of change compared to an average person. Inparticular, the following qualities are areas where you have experienced and will continue toexperience much change. These areas of life persist in presenting themselves to you, so youmay already have become very experienced in them. On the other hand, they could be arenas inwhich you struggle but have not yet attained mastery.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.Your Burn Rate Page 18Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakePlanets in High FocusYour mind is exceptional in its clarity. All that is mental comes to you without struggle orlabor -- ideas, thoughts, mental things of all kinds. The light in your eyes reveals the brightnessof your mind to everyone who comes to know you.MercuryYour 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.MarsThere are big changes (high burn rate) throughout your life in matters of organization andresponsibility. It may be difficult for you to learn to be thorough, to finish things, and take careof all the loose ends. You may have a lot to learn regarding what is and what is not essential inlife -- separating the wheat from the chaff. Getting down to the nitty-gritty, the bare bones ofthe matter, could well be a major lesson.SaturnYou have a high burn rate when it comes to questions of your independence and autonomy.You tend to rebel and buck authority, and this will be a major source of change and adjustment.You will be concerned with issues of freedom and independence far beyond the average person.A passion for inventions, electronics, and the like can also be expected.UranusYou have a high rate of change when it comes to what you believe in -- your ideals anddreams. You adjust and change your ideals often and struggle not to get carried away with eachnew vision. The world of your imagination is a major focus of change.NeptunePatterns: 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.Appearances can be deceiving, and here is a case in point. Your appearance (the way youPatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 19Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakecome on) and personality suggest that you may be inward, quiet, and concerned about whatother people think. This, in truth, is not the case. Although gentle-mannered, conservative, andsensitive on the outside, you are tough as nails on the inside -- as anyone can testify who gets toknow you very well. The fact is that you like attention and have a real need to be at the centerof any group. Your more sensitive style hides a strong, aggressive, and quite confident nature.You are at home in a crowd and enjoy the attentions of others. You expect them to come to you.Your mild mannered smoke-screen hides a real tiger. Appearances aside, let's take a look at thereal or inner you.Geo: Trine Helio: SquareYour Soul TypeYou are very gifted, having great magnetism and warmth and also a keen and powerfulmind. You can do anything you want to do in this life, if you can manage to get moving in onedirection and keep at it. This is a very fortunate chart, but one that may result in laziness. Youmay find it more convenient to neglect your mental, conceptual, and organizational abilities infavor of your social agility and animal warmth. People will value you for your warmth anddynamic qualities as much as for your ideas, and you may find it easier to acquiesce with youranimal warmth than to develop your mind. You can relate to almost all types of people withequal ease.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.Your 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 PersonalityYou are driven and passionate in your pursuit of change and inner growth. You possess, atthe core, an intensity that burns through superficialities, searching for opportunities to face thetruth and render the evident to view. This ceaseless analytical activity, while central to yournature, may be the source of discomfort to others.Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 20Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeThe Personal Hot SpotYour dreams and ideals are the number-one component for action in your chart. Yourimagination is crucial to your functioning.NeptuneInterface: 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.There could be a lot of emotional tension with this combination. You tend to set yourselfagainst whatever forces of change manage to rear their heads around you. This is never moretrue than where your feelings are concerned. Your attempt to remain untouched and impersonalseems doomed to failure. Everything intrudes, gets too personal, and threatens to hurt yourfeelings. Your insistence on being an emotional island is probably interspersed with bursts ofanger, even fits of rage.Mars Dis PlutoYou 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.Jupiter Dis VenusYou find it difficult to be spontaneous, to get away from routine and do something different.Others see in you a creature of routine. Travel may also be hard for you. It is not easy for you tochange or to accept changes. When you do enact a change, it is always at the deepest or corelevel and affects everything else in your life. Once a change is made, it at once becomes a partof you, solid and immovable. Those near you may feel that you inhibit the proverbial "life ofthe party." Code, computer programming, and the like should interest you.Saturn Inc UranusYour are very "bearish" when it comes to security and seldom make a move that does notstrengthen your position. You pursue responsibilities the way others pursue pleasure, and youInterface: Innermost qualities Page 21Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeeven invite obligations. Career moves are always solid, based on sound principles, and may betied in with the law or authorities -- all that is solid and well-reasoned. You don't invest inanything that is not tried and tested. Truth, religion, and philosophy are subjects of great interest.Saturn Inc JupiterYour 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 PlutoGetting 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.Pluto Dis MercuryMajor 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 provideinsight 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.Oct 04, 2013 1st Pass D> (Age 22 0m)Dec 09, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 2m)May 24, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 7m)Major Transits Happening Now Page 22Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou may find that both your personal growth and your career may depend upon how youcan handle the very sensitive psychological material that may be coming up now.

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 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.LibraHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 25Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou have a strong drive to be seen and known -- to communicate yourself to others. Personalappearance (the way you present yourself) is also a motivating factor.Mars in First HouseSecond 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 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 could be a terrific business person, as you have an ability to get past the surface ofthings and separate out that which has real worth. In the area of possessions or material goodsyou will go through a lot of changes and learn a lot.Pluto in Second HouseThird 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 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 have real insight when it comes to anything connected to research, study, and the worldof ideas. Your independent mental approach to problem-solving and communication finds youcoming up with connections that are new and different.Uranus in Third HouseYour mind tends to be very imaginative and not concerned with facts and figures. Instead,ideas and writing of a mystical or poetic nature appeal. Research into religious or very idealisticHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 26Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakesubjects is indicated.Neptune 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 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 have very simple needs regarding home and surroundings. Some might find you frugal.It may be difficult for you to send down roots, build a home-base, and feel secure. Feelings andemotions may be on the sparse side.Saturn in Fourth HouseFifth 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 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.AquariusSixth 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 HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 27Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakePisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath the surface. Thissign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend to absorb all the little barbs anddigs coming from outside. They always have their mind on an inner goal, something moreimportant. They are very forgiving and accepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of moreimportant issues.PiscesSeventh 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 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.AriesEighth 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 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.TaurusNinth 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 thatHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 28Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeis the very heart of things belong here.Ninth HouseGemini is concerned with connections and communication of all kinds -- letters, wires,telephones, 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.GeminiTenth 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 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.CancerYou have a natural insight and understanding as to what the public wants. Your career getsall kinds of support from other people, and you feel at home making practical and managementdecisions. You look to your work for strength and encouragement.Moon in Tenth HouseEleventh 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 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.LeoHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 29Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou love community projects and group work of any kind. Your sense of values finds you onthe side of altruism and humanism at every turn. You appreciate goals and efforts at the globallevel.Venus in Eleventh HouseYou could make a career out of group or community work, anything involving attempts tobring large-scale and humanitarian dreams and ideas to reality. Your ideals and inner visionkeep what is best for everyone ever on your mind.Jupiter in Eleventh HouseTwelfth 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 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.VirgoYou naturally are a giving person, sacrificing your own interests for the sake of an innervision -- what you feel is right. A born psychologist, you may find yourself counseling andcaring for the mental needs of others.Sun in Twelfth HouseYour mind is naturally interested in all that is psychological and beneath the surface ofthings. Ideas of self-sacrifice and compassion -- how to serve and help others -- are what youtend to think about.Mercury in Twelfth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 30 EllynlvxTimeLineAstrological Report For Layla KnowflakeJan 01, 2013 to Jan 01, 2014TimeLine Layla KnowflakeChart DataLayla KnowflakeSort: EnterZodiac: TropicalCoordinate System: GeocentricAspect set: PtolemyTransit Planets: Ma Ju Sa Ur Ne PlProgression 1 Method: SecondaryProgression 1 Planets: Mo Su Me Ve MaEclipse Aspect Set: PtolemyPlanet Sign Position House House CuspsSun Libra 10°Li49' 12th 01 21°Li06'Moon Leo 27°Le23' 10th 02 18°Sc38'Mercury Libra 11°Li29' 12th 03 20°Sg20'Venus Leo 28°Le28' 11th 04 24°Cp52'Mars Libra 21°Li47' 01st 05 28°Aq15'Jupiter Virgo 04°Vi34' 11th 06 27°Pi13'Saturn Aquarius 00°Aq12' R 04th 07 21°Ar06'Uranus Capricorn 09°Cp56' 03rd 08 18°Ta38'Neptune Capricorn 14°Cp00' 03rd 09 20°Ge20'Pluto Scorpio 18°Sc47' 02nd 10 24°Ca52'Midheaven Cancer 24°Ca52' 11 28°Le15'Ascendant Libra 21°Li06' 12 27°Vi13'Copyright 1985-2008 Matrix Software, Inc.Introduction Page 2TimeLine Layla KnowflakeReport HighlightsJan 18 Pluto Conjunct Uranus Transit (Capricorn-Capricorn 3rd-3rd)***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 01/18/13 Leave: 02/20/13)You may become fiercely independent and rebellious, defying rules and conventions, especiallyas regard psychological mores and taboos.

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 Layla 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 Libra and your dominant planet is Venus. Notonly the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also the attribute overwhich it rules. Thus Gemini, ruled by Mercury, lives a great deal in the senses; Libra, ruled byVenus, 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 Libra and Moon in LeoThis is one of the romantic positions whether the romanticism takes the form of poetry and art,or whether it simply makes you susceptible to romance in its less constructive form. Creative art ofsome sort will be your best medium of expression. You must guard against the less desirablemanifestations of romance. You are a temperamental, but able, person. Some quality of romantictemperament and artistic ability will attach to you in any case. Your ideals are your guiding stars,and you will stick to them to the end, believing in them as in a religion. There is somethingdevotional about your nature anyway, both in matters of human affection and also in a moreabstract way. You have an active and conscious idealism which you always strive to live up to, andin some way or other generally succeed. You are independent, especially where your love or yourideals are concerned - or your art, if you are an artist. You believe in art for art's (and for your own)sake and are unlikely to let considerations of commercial value or of expediency interfere withHoroscope of Birth Page 4Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeeither your art or your love. You are ardent, sincere, and honorable in your love.In a male horoscope, there is difficulty through members of the opposite sex, idealismfrequently finding poor response in the people selected. This position gives you considerableambition of a very high-minded sort. There is a kind of naivete about you that invites deception andyou have to learn to be unforgiving and to remember your unpleasant experiences. You are such anidealist and such an optimist that the blows of the world glance off you. You remember the pleasantand forget the unpleasant - an admirable trait in personal dealings so long as you learn byexperience what sort of thing to watch out for the next time.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 Libra"He prayeth best who loveth bestAll things both great and small."Samuel Taylor Coleridge,born in Libra, October 21, 1772.Libra's aim is to identify himself with as much of the rest of the world as suits the demands ofhis very eclectic and elegant taste. Despite a gentle and firm sort of independence, he does not putmuch stock in "being himself," for he values other people a great deal and, if no principle isinvolved, will please others before thinking of what he wants. In a deep sense, what he wants iswhat makes others happy. In some this makes weakness. The girl who "made love only to herfriends and didn't have an enemy in the world" was very likely a Libran. But so also is the girlwhose charm is so great and whose interest so eager that she holds a man's attention withoutyielding to his carnal passions. And many who have tried to force the apparently yielding Libranalong a path counter to his principles have felt the iron hand in the velvet glove.Libra's willingness to lose his identity in others - in society, in marriage - makes Librans idealcompanions, or mates, for those who understand the curious need they have for independence thatHoroscope of Birth Page 5Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeaccompanies their selflessness. They merge with others, but they retain their identity, and willwithdraw completely if their identity is attacked or endangered. They are democratic in spirit, butsince they identify themselves with elegance, will not allow themselves to be forced into contactwith things or people that offend their very strong sense of good taste. Thus they are often thoughtaristocrats or snobs, when in reality they have the deepest kind of inspect, sympathy andunderstanding for all sorts and conditions of men.They also have a great deal of respect, sympathy and understanding for themselves, and see noreason why they should ever give this up. They are the living embodiment of the cooperative spirit;they will work with you till they drop, but rarely for you. By the same token, if they are executives(and they often are) they treat their subordinates as partners, not as servants. Much is expected ofthe man who works for a Libra boss, who in return pays him well and treats him as an equal. Theaide who does housework for a Libra mistress must keep the place spotless, but is treated withrespect, as a fellow mortal whose human dignity must never be violated or imposed on. Libra findsdeepest satisfaction in harmonious union with those around him, and with the whole world, whichis not too much to be taken in by his warm and tolerant spirit.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. You have great energy, persistence, and overcoming ofobstacles, and can make it to the top.Sun Conjunct Mercury Orb: 00°40'You have a sound mentality. Along whatever lines you work you are fundamentally sane. Evenwith the erratic aspect, Sun square Uranus, Sun square Neptune, and Mars square Saturn, whichmakes for nervousness, you have a hitching post of normalcy. Men and women with this aspecthave an assurance against serious or permanent mental difficulties which will carry them through awhole lot of stress and bring them out the right side. You have fixed opinions though you are notstubborn. You are tactful and considerate of the opinions of others. You are studious and sound inyour intellectual work, but this position does not in itself make for creative ability. This will makefor perseverance - the ability to add the ninety-nine percent of perspiration to genius's one percentof inspiration.Sun Square Uranus Orb: 00°53'You've sown your wild oats - and how! Your intellectual development was a good deal inadvance of your emotional development, and as a result you had ideas, notions, theories, ofindependence and of human relations which you put into practice, considerably to the despair ofyour elders. You're a liberal in every way, with advanced social, political, and personal ideas.Individualism is very important to you, and your own ego comes first. As you grow older thisoutlook broadens from the purely personal to the more general; you turn from egocentric tohumanitarian, interested in large ideas, large groups of people, social problems in the large. This isHoroscope of Birth Page 6Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeone of the aspects of idealism but on its way to that state it goes through many ramifications. Youhave been dejected and depressed and discouraged; probably you've had your share ofunconventional and erratic love affairs. You always tend to be something of a romantic; no matterhow much you control, or how much you learn to translate the personal into the impersonal, anadventurous spirit keeps gnawing at you. This is the aspect of Ulysses, forever wandering the seas -even when he's sitting by his hearth with Penelope. Translate your adventuresomeness tointellectual, rather than geographical or personal variety, and the world is at your feet.Emotionalism will dominate you because of your Sun square Neptune. You are a sensationalistand need to depersonalize yourself consciously.In any case, you have a periodically explosive temper and must learn the lessons of cooperationboth with the world in general and with individuals. You tend to think that you are right and all therest of the world is crazy, which may be true but doesn't make much of a hit with the world.Sun Square Neptune Orb: 03°11'This is a treacherous aspect, subtly weakening the will power and making you susceptible toinfluences that arise not always from worthy sources. You are a sensationalist and will go out ofyour way for the bizarre, the unusual, or the mysterious in experience. You have to look out for thistendency, which leads you to seek strange and unreliable associates. A certain nebulous andimpractical idealism attaches to your emotional and thought processes. You are likely to think inbeautiful and vague circles and to give yourself up to dreams and emotions of a hypnotic anddangerous quality. Reason should be your constant aim, and you should avoid thinking or actingalong inspirational, intuitive, or sensational lines.MoonWhile 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.Horoscope of Birth Page 7Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMoon in LeoThe portrait you paint of yourself is heroic and towers above the world you inhabit. To live upto the level of your inner picture is a lifetime job requiring energy, courage and considerable senseof the drama of existence. Private satisfactions are not very important to you; you are lessintrospective than most. You want to see the tangible evidence of success, and like it best if the restof the world can see it, too. You are a bit of a show off, but since you are utterly honest withyourself, you can laugh at your own vanities, even when they remain important. You want valuablepossessions, well-groomed children, good clothes, accomplishments and evidences ofaccomplishment that others can applaud. Your desires are basically simple, and your methods ofgetting them direct; you know what you want and are willing to make sacrifices for them. Youwon't sacrifice personal integrity, however, or honor, which are the intangibles that do matter toyou. Education, culture, art, music, however, matter less. You can take 'em or leave 'em alone; andten to one, if you do take 'em, it isn't because they really feed your soul, but because you thinkevidence of such a soul will in some way add to your prestige. Throughout your life you will striveto fulfill an image of yourself which is less a portrait than a statue dominating the landscape of yourlife by its size, its beauty, the dramatic quality of its setting and the colorful beauty of its trappings.And in becoming this statue you are likely to become a lot of other more spiritual things which youdon't even desire and which are added to you because of the honest workmanship that goes intoyour self sculpture.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.You overcome psychological handicaps for an intellectual triumph over yourself; you are themind-that-found-itself type of person, though not necessarily in extreme form.Moon Conjunct Venus Orb: 01°04'Grace and charm if a woman, and personality or its equivalent if a man, make human relationsand therefore life easy for you. You are likely to be one of the spoiled darlings of society, capableof winning people over simply by appearing on the scene. Considerable beauty generallyaccompanies this position, and even if your features don't look regular to you, there'll always belots of people who see something there that they find easy to look at. You are a trifle vain and willspend money for adornment even if you have to go without something else that you may needmore. But this is unlikely to happen, for there is a good deal of material luck with this position, andsomeone or something will probably pop up at the last minute to save you from financial distress.This aspect in itself doesn't make you very aggressive in either profession or personal life, but withother aggressive indications will insure the success of your ventures. A woman with this aspectmay be a social leader of some importance or in some way the center of her circle; while a man issure to have a charming, popular, and helpful wife. If you have this in your chart, you will find thatyour business and professional career is materially helped by social contacts, and that society isimportant to you. You thrive on people, parties, and amusements; while anything connected withthese (singing, acting, producing, drama, music, writing for the public) will provide your bestmedium of expression and your surest way to success.Horoscope of Birth Page 8Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMoon Sextile Mars Orb: 05°36'You have a vigorous mind - sharp, quick, satiric - and a clipped manner of speech. You have anaggressive spirit which may or may not be manifest in your actions, but which causes your plans tosoar and your ideas to expand. You have good control over your passions, which are strong; anduse your anger to good purpose. You are a dangerous enemy because your fires are leashed anddirected to go to the mark. In a man's horoscope this gives an aggressive wife, possibly a shrew,who none the less is good for him, stimulating him to action at the same time that she makes himmad.Moon Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 07°11'Character is your god. you believe in your own personal worth from a moral and characterviewpoint. Your abilities may be high or low, depending on other things, but you are utterlydependable and can be counted on to do the right thing and think the right thoughts. This doesn'tmake you puritanical or cold, because you have a naturally cheerful and optimistic nature, verysympathetic with other people and their troubles. You have a genuine feeling for your fellow man,his problems and difficulties. This is the aspect of the missionary who may be interested in people'ssouls, but chiefly wants to take care of their physical comforts on earth. Here are found socialworkers, doctors, nurses, and executives in these fields, to whom their occupation is more than ameans of livelihood - it's a conviction and a passion. You have a certain nobility of approach and ofmotive - you couldn't be mean or petty if you tried, and thus your popularity and luck are welldeserved, and nobody grudges them to you. You can be a stern judge, but you will always temperjustice with mercy. You will condemn people, perhaps, morally, but be reluctant to punish them,and you are never vindictive. You're well fixed financially. This is an aspect of extraordinarygoodness. The humanitarian motive is uppermost and makes you an extraordinarily fine person.Moon Square Pluto Orb: 08°36'The important lessons in your life will be learned through your relationships. Men, themother-figure will shape your reactions to all women. Women, you base your conception of yourown femininity and nurturing abilities on the feedback you received from your mother. You tend tohold on to the past and act on your early conditioning until you realize how your subconsciousreactions and motivations hold you back. You may feel you need freedom, thus avoiding closeemotional relationships, when what you really need is to take a direct and personal responsibilityfor the direction of your life and the satisfaction of your emotional needs. Compromise is one of thekey lessons of your life.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.Horoscope of Birth Page 9Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMercury in LibraSense impressions reach you through a strict moral and aesthetic censor. You see, hear, taste,smell and feel with the proprieties of art and society in mind, and have few sensory reactions thatdo not have to submit to this type of judgment. A color is not just red to you; it is a warm red, or acold red, or a beautiful or ugly red. Further, in addition to the artistic standard, you apply thestandard of good taste, and what you see or hear will revolt you if it doesn't conform with your ideaof what is "out of the top drawer." You are a kind of sensation snob, and the simple meaning ofsense experience is likely to be lost on you if it in any way offends the standards of nicety you setup for yourself. Needless to say, you are very sensitive to odors and all kinds of physicalsurroundings. Your house must be spick-and-span (so that your sight will not be offended); noisesif any must be subdued and quiet (not to affront your ears); the odors of cookery must not penetrateto the living room (for your nose's sake); what you eat must be seasoned just so (or your tongue andmaybe your stomach by attraction will revolt); and last, but not least, your mate's face and handsmust be smooth (even if she has to do the cooking and the laundry), so that your reaction will bepleasant when you touch her. All these niceties can make you fussy, but, if turned to their best use,make you gentle, considerate of others, and gifted in one or more of the arts where your greatsensitivity is translated to creations that reflect it in beauty.Mercury Square Uranus Orb: 01°33'Quickness and mental facility are your gifts, with a periodic insight of great swiftness andaccuracy but no great stability. Your mental control is not good, and your energies are wasted intemperament. You are independent in thought and action and your own mentor of opinion,frequently differing violently from established authority - and more likely than not to get intotrouble through tactlessness. You like to talk back to policemen. The revolutionary spirit is strongin you with a "whatever it is, I'm against it" attitude. You like a battle of wits and will take the otherside of the argument just for the fun of it or to help out the underdog. Your great independence andvigor of mind can make you a leader of thought when you have learned to get the chip off yourshoulder.Mercury Square Neptune Orb: 02°31'You are a daydreamer. You think abstract and impractical thoughts which you weave into aweb of reality but can't put into practice. You love beauty, music, and art and should try to masterthe creative technique of one of these to put your inspirational faculties to work. You havedifficulty concentrating. You are easily distracted, not so much by things or people around you asby the wandering tendencies of your own mind. Even when you are shut up alone in a quiet room,little is likely to be accomplished.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 yourHoroscope of Birth Page 10Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeSun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same signwith your Moon; emotions also gain importance, bearing directly on your inner nature, adding toself confidence, making you sensitive to emotion impressions, and frequently indicating that youhave more love in your heart than you are able to express.Venus in LeoYou dramatize emotional experience to the hilt. Your emotional responses are both honest andcalculated. They aren't spontaneous, but they aren't hypocritical. They are geared to serve your totalpersonality and to insure that they will make the right effect. You know how you look when you'rekissing or being kissed; and you're clever enough to avoid the appearance of posing. You aresomething of an introvert; love is yours to give or withhold, according to your wishes. If yourdesires are strong, it is due to some other position in the horoscope, because Venus in Leo,considered as a unit, enables you to shut desire on or off at will. When on, it can be a wow; whenoff, cold as ice and unapproachable. No one with Venus in Leo ever was talked into anything. Inemotions, you do all the talking, and the only plea you hear is your own. This position is wonderfulif you're on the stage and tends to make a stage of your life even if the theater isn't your profession.Venus Sextile Mars Orb: 06°41'Strong and magnetic personality with a large amount of sex appeal of the more desirable sort,intense without being erratic; and emotionally reliable. You are likely to marry well so far asmoney is concerned, and also to have good earning powers of your own if you should need them.You spend freely especially in the pursuit of pleasure or the purchase of finery. You profitmaterially through your parents and probably will have some legacy from them or from someoneelse. Money is important to you. You are a materialist, and your ideals have a touch of earth inthem. You are ardent rather than romantic though if other positions show romanticism this will lendvitality and realism to what might otherwise be a nebulous ideology. You will never want forsweethearts, and you'll be popular always, a social leader gathering people around you - and lovingit!Venus Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 06°06'You are gentle and idealistic and likely to have your feelings imposed upon. Idealism will bethe keynote of your nature at the start of your life, but the world will doubtless take a great deal ofthis out of you, though it can never destroy it entirely. A naive faith in goodness prevails to the end.You are religious according to some faith or fashion, probably orthodox, believing in the reward ofthe righteous. Some wealth is shown by this position. With your Venus sextile Mars, you find muchcontentment and security, a sheltered life, peaceful and calm.Venus Square Pluto Orb: 09°41'You are more aware of love's burdens than its bliss. You do want a permanent, growing loverelationship, but you seem to attract the type of people who aren't willing to give as much as youneed. With time you will learn the positive meanings of love, which will be all the more precious toyou because you already know the pains. One of the things you may become more aware of as youexperience love is that your relationships reflect your own inner turmoil; as soon as you startHoroscope of Birth Page 11Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakerespecting yourself as you are now, you will find that you attract a giving, loving person moreeasily. Marriage could occur out of a strong need for financial and emotional security. Some ofyour love affairs could be secret ones, possibly with married persons. An intense love affair forwhich you are forced to give your all could bring about a transformation.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 is in the same sign as your Sun, this gives abundant energy,sometimes misdirected in temper, temperament and quarrels.Mars in LibraYour social urges are powerful - sometimes too powerful for your own good. You areemotionally impressionable-your energies flow out to others and carom back to you with the addedmagnetism of other people, good or bad. You are sensitive to what you call love, and one way oranother will have a lot of it in your life. You seem to sense instinctively that you are tooimpressionable, and in an effort to seem more independent than you are, will quarrel unnecessarilywith those who impress you most forcibly - it is your defense against succumbing to them utterly.You must string for true cooperativeness of spirit, instead of being alternately as meek as a lamband as mad as a hornet. Your energies and your emotions are always working together or againsteach other: your emotions express energetically and physically, and your energies run wild throughemotional channels. You require detachment of spirit, objectivity of approach to other people, andmoderation in the social and love instincts which tend to run away with you, upset your life anddestroy your peace. Learn to accept other people more easily, to achieve true union with others andto fight down all extremes of human relations. Enmity and anger disturb the ego centers in youmore than in most people; to be your best self requires harmony, and to achieve true harmony, youmust learn that living with others is a two-way business and is not helped either by completeself-surrender or complete self-assertion.Mars Square Saturn Orb: 08°25'This is an aspect of bad judgment and of that peculiarly insidious form of bad judgment whichfor years may appear to be "getting away with it" until the accumulated flaws in your life toppleover the structure of your existence. If you have this aspect in your chart you will do well to sitdown right now and make a thorough analysis of your life, your position, and your security, to seewhether you are not operating on a major fallacy - a fallacy concerning either your own capabilitiesor the nature of the world in which you are working. Somewhere along the line you are making afundamental mistake in estimating your own capacity, or the extent of your security.This aspect will give you some sort of an inferiority complex to bring you under the dominanceof older people. In general it will retard your development, making you indecisive and too willingHoroscope of Birth Page 12Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketo take advice and guidance. You are likely to be imposed upon - with periodic and depressingbursts of rebellious temperament which serve to wear you out without accomplishing anything else.You struggle for a decision, letting things mill around in your mind for a long time indeterminatelywithout really concentrating on the facts and figures; and finally, out of sheer impatience you jumpto a conclusion which may not have any relationship with the facts or with your mullings. Thedominance of others, early responsibilities, and a sort of nervous rebellion toward them cause youdifficulty in orienting yourself to the world. None of these things, of course, is fated, and thedifficulty may be overcome by the assumption of independence in youth; by a philosophic attitudetoward obligations which cannot be avoided, and an accompanying determination not to beimposed upon, or by a strict course of self-analysis, to get at the roots of your indecision - ifnecessary, to change your environment and your occupation in order to rout out those factorswhich' are psychologically distressing.Finances will bear watching especially with respect to sudden losses due to bad judgment inbusiness matters, and the emotional nature must be carefully guarded against the incursion offactors that make for psychic biases in human relations. In a woman's horoscope this usually meansdisagreement between husband and father, or husband and brother, or husband and sons - or all ofthem. You had to defy your father to get married at all, or throw off some obligation or tie whichsomeone is trying to foist on you. Whether other factors do or do not exist, however, the Nemesisof erroneous judgment very temptingly presented, must be watched, and you must make everyeffort to analyze strictly what you do from a purely rational, logical, and unemotional viewpoint.Mars Square Neptune Orb: 07°47'This aspect accompanies spiritual thought and spiritual leadership and is found in theexecutives of the Church and of spiritual and occult organizations as well as occasionally amonggreat military leaders who have an unusually magnetic personal hold over their men. It gives you aspiritual insight into the affairs of earth, and a practical viewpoint about ideas of heaven. You areconscious of the two worlds which are not separate entities to you but related and integrated partsof the same whole. Thus, in strong executive horoscopes, this spiritual-practical approach givesyour personality the ring of authenticity and divine right. You speak "not as the Scribes andPharisees, but as one having authority," and you somewhat overawe those who come in contactwith you. Whatever possibilities your horoscope shows, this will lend subtle but powerful force toit and give you a grip on the minds and hearts of men that is invaluable.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.Horoscope of Birth Page 13Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeJupiter in VirgoThis position enables you to find opportunity in small beginnings, to take infinite pains with thelittle things that underlie success, and to plug along at a hopeless cause until - lo and behold! - itamounts to something. The effect you give is of care, caution, and routine perfection of details; andbecause of this, you are often able to win support from financial interests who value these traits andconsider them good credit reference. You will generally be able to get backing for your business;you believe in putting all your eggs in one basket and watching the basket, with the result that youfrequently hatch quite a brood. Spectacular or risky ventures don't appeal to you. If this positionlimits the imagination somewhat, it is also likely to get you farther in the long run than the dashingfellow who has been through several fortunes, or jobs, while you have studiously been cultivatingyour own garden and raising a fine crop of security and possessions.Jupiter Trine Uranus Orb: 05°22'This is merely a contributing aspect and has little force of its own. It adds stability to thecharacter and in some degree to the fortunes, giving an element of luck to the economic status andbroadening the outlook. If creative power is shown, this will give it great breadth, scope, and socialhumanitarian appeal. If a business career is indicated, this builds the fortunes and makes belovedexecutives and managers. If public life, this tinges the purpose with a broad social outlook that mayreach the constructively radical.Jupiter Trine Neptune Orb: 09°26'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.SaturnSaturn 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.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 SaturnHoroscope of Birth Page 14Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakein 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.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.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: 04°04'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: 08°51'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.Horoscope of Birth Page 15Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeNeptuneNeptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality,indicating what you take deeply for granted in life.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,regardless 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: 04°47'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 theHoroscope of Birth Page 16Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakebetterment 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.Pluto 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 17Current 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 7, 2014 - Pluto Square MercuryYour ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writingand study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become soCurrent Transits Page 18Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeobsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One ofthe things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning andimportance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time whenyour tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certainforcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turnpeople off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely andclearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, intalking about it, you don't get carried away.Jan 27, 2014 - Mars Conjunct MarsThis is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideaspromoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellentadvantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is thetime when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. Youare starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the nexttwenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into whichto direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling youroats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrenttwo year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments,activity and changes.Feb 12, 2014 - Uranus Square UranusThis upper square falls at the age of about sixty-three and should indicate the abandonment ofindividualism, so far as external affairs are concerned. To go through this period without "drawingin your horns" is to lose the peace of your later years. Any desire which has not been achieved bynow should be abandoned - released from concentrated effort. Your mind should be allowed todwell on personal, intellectual matters; for as a result of releasing your drive for vindication in theouter world, you give your accomplishments of the first sixty years a chance to work and gainrecognition for you after you have, in a sense, voluntarily given up the struggle. Protect health fromnerves in this period and the years that follow.Feb 19, 2014 - Jupiter Square SunNew starts work out well. Plans for long term activities, such as business or marriage, get offfavorably. Home is a good base of operations; and, if other indications for this time concur, it is agood time to buy a permanent home. Extravagance in private life needs controlling, but money isprobably well spent because concentrated on basic and permanent possessions and should besteered into these channels. Entertain, build self-assurance by surrounding yourself with the thingsand the people that make you feel relaxed and comfortable; the ego thus stimulated shines out andhelps you toward advancement. Derive your satisfaction from personal pleasures rather than frompublic acclaim.Mar 3, 2014 - Uranus Opposite SunThis aspect brings externalization of self, breaking of ties and sometimes the formation of newCurrent Transits Page 19Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketies to replace old ones. Marriage at this time indicates that you are marrying on impulse or perhapsto get away from some other undesirable tie. Or it may indicate marriage to an eccentric, neurotic,original or creative individual. It isn't a good time for marriage because you are touchy and startmarried life by getting into bed on the wrong foot. Creative impulses are strong; your magnetismhelps you make rapid strides, if you are controlling the purely self centered and self-indulgent urgeswhich are powerful. Watch nerves; put less stress on individuality and more on cooperativeness.Think less of forcing your will on others, more of understanding their wishes. If you're a genius or agreat personality, this is an outstanding period of your life; if you are an ordinary mortal, you haveto look out for expressing the temperament of genius without getting its results or meriting itsrewards.Mar 15, 2014 - Uranus Opposite MercuryYou experience periods of mental stimulation, eccentricity, self assurance and self-indulgence.At first there are quarrels, strife, resentments, followed by illumination, originality andinventiveness. Financial setbacks are due to bad judgment, risks, erratic moves or desires andimpractical schemes. If you're sufficiently controlled, you find creative originality all the way up togenius. If you're not, temperament takes you all the way down to nonsense.Mar 21, 2014 - Jupiter Square SunPublicity and public affairs favor you and tend to go to your head. You may get careless withmoney, extend credit too far, and thus lay the basis for later regrets. Restraint brings you gainthrough important people. You profit by pull, if you are willing to use it as a stepping stone to workand honest effort. Avoid over-extension of ego and authority; be content to take a back seat. Useopportunities, not to promote fame or prestige, but to build foundations on which these may rest inthe future. Protect health from excess; some danger of physical setback through self indulgence oroverwork. Raises of salary come automatically, if at all, and you gain little by demanding. Restassured that you will get no more and no less than you deserve, and that the intrusion of the ego ismore likely to bring disappointment than favors.Mar 31, 2014 - Mars Conjunct MarsThis is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideaspromoted.

Also, unless you have the endurance of an ox, youwill tire yourself as Mars transits your Sun, and fatigue is likely to lead to strife, breaks andseparations. Translate your energies to work, activity, detached application to a job or task; anddon't get touchy or allow personal reactions to interfere with efficiency. This can be a romanticperiod; your magnetism is high, and you are likely to get what you want if you moderate yourdemands and use more persuasion and less insistence than you want to.

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.

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 emergefrom 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 9, 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.Sep 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.Current Transits Page 23Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeSep 20, 2014 - Mars Square JupiterThis will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or throughover-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is tooenthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance.This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and badluck.Oct 18, 2014 - Jupiter Square PlutoThis is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter caninflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - thanever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death orbecoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at adistance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a greattime for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into theante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of theclass curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever.Nov 5, 2014 - Pluto Square MercuryYour ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writingand study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical.

Your nerves require watching. These problems canlead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) fromexcess 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.Nov 9, 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 wellCurrent Transits Page 24Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeconsidered 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 islikely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead offigurative and quarrelsome.Nov 10, 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.Nov 13, 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 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.You should not let distractions interfere with plans you started when Mars was conjunct Mars onJul 9, 2014. Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rulethe emotions.Nov 30, 2014 - Saturn Square MoonThis is a period of some emotional stress, perhaps a physical or material setback. Yourpersonality begins to work toward objectifying itself, and you are now finding that you may losesomething in the process. Not to feel sorry for yourself is the chief prescription for this period.What you will lose is mainly sentimentality - an attitude toward yourself better forgotten. What yougain is re-evaluation of your personal qualities, an ability to stand outside yourself, and to marshalyour mental and emotional energies so that you will continuously master them in the future. Yougain a certain hardness, which need not destroy your human qualities, but which will enable you touse mental, emotional and creative powers more effectively in the future. The beneficial result ofthis period is self-mastery through objectivity and detachment. In lovematters you may have adifficult period. In material matters you are likely to mark a low point. The ego is too muchoccupied with itself to be materially effective in the world, but learns the need of effectiveness as aresult of this experience. This square paves the way for the Moon opposite Saturn which will comein about 7 years; the more you learn here, the less stress will be found in the opposition when itCurrent Transits Page 25Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakecomes. During this period you are able to learn by the experience of others or to help others withwhat you have learned by your own experience. What happens to you here or to those around youshould be taken to heart and applied to yourself. The aim should be self-discovery throughemotional experience: taking your whims less seriously, that you may take your true virtues moreseriously.Dec 4, 2014 - Mars Conjunct SaturnThis is a good time to slow down and if you don't do so voluntarily, you may be forced to do soby a cold or some other type of illness. Do your duties quietly and solidify the existing position inwhich you find yourself. Superiors need kid-glove handling; you may feel hampered and restrainedin your work; your energies may be forced into a yoke that chafes. Be philosophical about takingwhat comes; passivity and acceptance rather than activity and aggression serve you best. You buildgood, substantial foundations, despite limitations; or else you kick over the traces and probablyregret it later. You may experience colds, low vitality, fatigue, nerves, or your system may becomerun down. Take a rest cure if you can. If you stay well, those around you may be ill, increasing yourresponsibilities.Dec 9, 2014 - Saturn Square VenusExperience finds its mark in your heart, and some home truths about emotional matters areimpressed on you. This period is usually accompanied by separation or break, caused bycircumstances or quarrels and followed by a maturing process that enables you to revise youremotions along more practicable lines. Disappointment in others or in yourself, or both, leads youtoward a saner approach to human relations. In material matters, you are generally required toskimp to make both ends meet, or you may experience the loss of money or security.Dec 28, 2014 - Mars Square 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 emergefrom 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.Jan 8, 2015 - Mars Opposite 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 andCurrent Transits Page 26Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketrouble 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.Jan 10, 2015 - Mars Opposite VenusHeightened emotions make romance, which is favored if you keep it within the bounds ofreason and convention. Impulsive acts, with or without a future, are frequently found in theserecurrent periods. Glamour surrounds your approach to life; you are susceptible to the opposite sexand they to you. This transit frequently indicates the time of marriage within the period of a longertransit that favors it. If the era of romance is past, this indicates an active and on the wholesatisfactory social period; business progress; extravagance with money; a sudden urge to go placesand do things - and perhaps a chafing at the marital bit which should not be taken too seriously.Energies work through emotions and passions, which in turn work overtime and should be gentlydisciplined though not entirely submerged. Often, for obvious reasons, this transit indicates theconception of children, especially if it occurs while Mars is conjunct your sun or conjunct yourMars.Jan 18, 2015 - Mars Opposite JupiterThis will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or throughover-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is tooenthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance.This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and badluck.Jan 25, 2015 - Pluto Conjunct NeptuneThis is a time of questioning long-held beliefs in a search for personal meaning. You aren'twilling now to embrace an idea without first testing it to find out how well it fits into your generalscheme of the cosmos, your notion of the unity of all life. This manifestation is the highest onepossible with this influence, but there is the possibility that questioning will result in rejection -without replacement - of all you have believed in the past. Such disillusionment leads to confusion,which can have a long-lasting effect if you aren't wiring to adopt or construct some system of beliefon which to base all efforts at self-evaluation. Introspection is one of the main manifestations ofthis period.Jan 28, 2015 - Jupiter Square PlutoThis is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter caninflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - thanever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death orbecoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at adistance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a greattime for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into theante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of theclass curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever.Current Transits Page 27

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.Your keyword is responsibility -- the ability to respond. You are able to find yourself inothers, in relationships, rather than alone -- a mirror or clear pool. You can be peaceful, calm,and undisturbed. A genius at bringing out others getting them to do things, you are a bornstrategist.Sun in LibraYou communicate with consummate skill, and it is stimulating just being with you. Yourhigh degree of mental concentration makes you an excellent student, able to excel in speaking,writing, and all types of communication skills. Your ambitions go hand-in-hand withcommunication and using the mind, and the two should never be far apart.Sun Conjunction MercuryIt may be difficult for you to break with convention and head out on your own. Yourambitions may well prosper, but often at the expense of any real independence and freedom.There is a switch effect: you may alternate between very conventional behavior and suddenPlanet Aspects Page 4Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakerebellious lapses. At these times your nonconformity and refusal to go along works against yourown best interests, making it difficult to get ahead.Sun Square UranusYou find yourself fighting to realize your ambitions amidst a sea of fuzzy dreams. A fear ofletting go (and trusting the more mystical side of yourself) keeps you hard at it. You can't seemto let yourself dream a little, don't trust your own idealizations, and struggle between your senseof ideals and your more realistic ambitions. Your practical concerns with getting ahead andfulfilling your ambitions tend to ignore your more deep-rooted ideals and dreams. You may nottrust those in authority.Sun Square NeptuneThe 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 are gregarious, even to the point of bringing out the performer in others. You somehowalways manage to find a creative environment or the creative in any environment. You are greatwith kids and big on animals, sports, and the outdoors. You are an instant umbrella of warmth,friendship, and self-expression.Moon in LeoYou like other people, and they can tell. Others value you for your sense of discriminationand kindness.

You value and are a connoisseur of all things bright and kind.Moon Conjunction VenusYou find it easy to work with other people and tend to pour a lot of energy into thosearound you.

With yourpowerful spirit, you enjoy your strong emotions and have an active social life as well.Moon Sextile MarsThe public loves you, and it may be hard for you to avoid working with and for others. Theway for you involves working with people. Everyone sees you as genuine and giving and tendsto trust you on sight. Your ability to counsel others is excellent, and you are always sought outPlanet Aspects Page 5Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakefor advice. A born leader, others find it easy to take instructions from you and tend to followyour example. You enjoy helping others solve their problems.Moon Conjunction JupiterYou keep your feelings and emotions to yourself and resent any attempt to analyze or probethem. Your home and surroundings are tidy and air-tight, as well. However, you don't mindprobing and dissecting the lives of others. This can't help but produce a strain in your relationswith others, and you probably get very little support for your detective work. These two parts ofyou which seldom meet cause constant tension, resulting in periodic explosions.Moon Square PlutoThe 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.Mercury: 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.Yours is a reflective mind, a mirror for others. You are equality-minded and easy to talkwith -- a great mediator or negotiator. You find it easy to accept the ideas and thoughts ofothers and to hear them out. You are good at relations (politics, diplomacy, sales), not tomention considerate, helpful, and courteous. Calm.Mercury in LibraYou are very bright, and you may be very proud of your mind and all that it can do. Youhave a high degree of concentration that makes you an excellent student and able to excel inspeaking, writing, and all types of communication skills.Sun Conjunction MercuryYou may have trouble with any ideas that are new and different. Your more conservativeway of thinking and expressing yourself goes against all that is radical and new. Thoughts andconcepts that break with tradition may be a hassle for you -- a constant headache. You preferthat conversations and communications stay on the accepted paths and become irritated whenthey stray from what you expect. You have a tendency to lose your temper with little warning.Mercury Square UranusPlanet Aspects Page 6Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou find talk of the other world, and mysticism in general, to be a real hassle. You struggle tokeep this and any spiritual material at bay and, like your mind, down-to-earth and quiteconventional. It may be hard for you to think about spiritual matters, much less express them inwords or thoughts. You like your dreams neat and are troubled when thoughts of other lives andwhat-not intrude. You would rather not talk about it.Mercury Square NeptuneVenus: 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.Big heart, big love, you are seldom petty. Given to grand gestures and dramatic scenes, youlove independence and greatness in all forms and are very regal. You can be generous to a fault.Children and animals are high on your list of priorities. Fervently loyal, you are courageous anddemonstrative.Venus in LeoYou have a natural love of history, different cultures, and your own past. You canappreciate the emotional and psychological side of life, and working with groups will be a toppriority. Others value you for your sense of appreciation and love.Moon Conjunction VenusYou value fairness in all things and go out of your way to be just. You appreciate otherswho have been successful and may surround yourself with those in power, be they politicians,officials, what-have-you. Your sense of quality and discrimination may amount to some sort oflivelihood for you. You could make your living with your good taste. In addition, you have aninnate sense of how to work with and guide others in making decisions. You understand thechoices and can spot the right ones.Venus Conjunction 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.Planet Aspects Page 7Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeMars: 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 have an inner urge to be all things to all people and would rather bend than argue ormake an issue. You are a natural diplomat, always courteous and concerned with the comfortand welfare of others. You stay in the background, but are able to manipulate and bring outcooperation in others every time.Mars in LibraA born coach or teacher, you are at home in the physical and "doing" areas of life. Aninspiration and driving force in the lives of others. Quite able to manage a very active andstrong emotional life. Strong spirit. Attractive. Direct, perhaps loud.Moon Sextile MarsYou hate a lack of clarity, especially when it comes to your feelings and emotions. This is aless than ideal world as far as you are concerned, and you are for making the best of it.Whatever dreams and ideals you may have had are somehow shut off from the day-to-dayrealities you face. You would rather ignore your dreams than be tortured by their remoteness.You are suspicious of pie-in-the-sky and have an abnormal fear of being deceived, in particularin matters of love and feelings. A sign of emotional tension.Mars Square NeptuneFeelings and emotions are an open book with you, and you wear your heart on your sleeve.Others may find your drive and openness threatening and aggressive.Mars Conjunction AscendantYou are very competitive -- even pushy -- when it comes to partners and other people. Youhave a great social drive and love to work in a group or with close friends.Mars Square 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 8Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeA service career is a perfect choice, for you want very much to be of use, to be used up. Youhave a fantastic appetite for detail work, and can take it all in and still look for more. Willingand able to respond to almost any emergency, you are responsible and always ready.Jupiter in VirgoA born teacher or group leader, counselor or guide. Others find it easy to take directionfrom you by example alone. You enjoy immersing yourself in a group, solving problems,raising spirits, and so on. People admire your openness and generosity.Moon Conjunction JupiterYou appreciate a winner and are drawn to the successful and powerful (politics, and such).You may make your living by virtue of your good taste, sense of quality, and discrimination.You love and value guiding others, counseling, and solving problems.Venus Conjunction JupiterYou are independent and value freedom and nonconformity. A great problem-solver, youenjoy working out new solutions, trying new things. Your career will be anything but ordinary,and leave it to you to find unusual ways of supporting yourself. You bring a lot of mental skilland understanding to whatever you do, and could teach or help others to take a moreindependent approach to their life or career. You pursue electronics, computers, and the like.Jupiter Trine UranusSaturn: 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 very methodical and practical when it comes to matters of home and family, evenat the expense of your career.Saturn Opposition MidheavenPlanet Aspects Page 9Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeThe 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 need for self-expression and independence may be at the expense of your real growth.You may rebel or find yourself bucking authority figures. It is clear to you that yourunconventionality costs you. Part of you wants to conform and go along.Sun Square UranusYou tend to carry a lot of mental energy and tension, and this can suddenly erupt whenyou're not kept busy. The way you speak, think, and use your mind can give way to sheerinsight and brilliance. At other times you may have very conventional ideas.Mercury Square UranusUnusual occupations. Hate the everyday and the rut. Instead, always finding ways to breakthrough or away from what hems you in. Value independence, personal freedom; insist uponand exist on the wildfire at the fringe or very front edge of life.Jupiter Trine UranusYou have real vision and insight into the unity that ties this world together. Your brilliantPlanet Aspects Page 10Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeimagination 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 NeptuneNeptune: 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 CapricornYou struggle between your sense of ideals and your more practical ambitions. Yourself-image and dreams are kept apart from the day-to-day practical concerns. They continue toconfront one another. Authorities may not trust you, and vice versa.Sun Square NeptuneYour ideas, thoughts, and mentality may struggle to keep a damper on a tendency towardsmysticism and the spirit. Your dreams and ideals may be difficult for you to express or talkabout, but are a source of much energy and not a little tension.Mercury Square NeptuneYou can be self-defeating, often pushing in directions that go against your own stated idealsand dreams. You have an aversion to foggy mindedness and lack of clarity, a fear of beingmisled or duped. Your feelings tend to compromise your own self-image.Mars Square 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 NeptuneYou work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are the mostpersonal or private -- depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit, assisting at thebirth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process. You accept the naturalprocess of birth, spiritual and physical, and have dedicated yourself to helping it along. Youwould make a great teacher in these areas.Neptune Sextile PlutoPlanet Aspects Page 11Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYour ideal dream is a private one, and heaven is as close as work and family. You find sociallife and the outer world harsh and unimaginative.Neptune Square AscendantPluto: 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 ScorpioEmotional stress stemming from your insistence on analysis and psychological probing atthe expense of feelings -- yours and other people's. No one will support it. Your sensitivity andvulnerability often find you at odds with the group or with others.Moon Square PlutoA searing vision that cuts through what passes for conventional religion. A vision of theendless process of life ever being born afresh. Great acceptance and faith in the natural processand next generation. Love of children and animals.Neptune Sextile PlutoThe supportive help of women or a girl can be an important factor that will affect businessor reputation and increase your sense of security. You are a fine psychologist, researcher, ordetective and are good at dealing with joint or others' finances.Pluto Trine MidheavenChallenges and AbilitiesChallenges and Abilities Page 12Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeFocusThese are areas of life where we show intense focus and activity.

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 may be a very social child -- an accomplished leader at the age of even seven or eightand a real socialite in the early teens. All of this is somewhat premature, so don't be surprised ifyou lose your interest in the external, social scene during your middle teens. You will discovera more subjective you and elect to take a more inward direction. Turning away from the socialscene, you may spend many years pursuing your inner life. This more involuted and personaltime may intensify when you are 21-22 years and last until you are around 30 years of age. Atthat time you will go through a remarkable change, sort of discovering yourself all at once. Themore inward years of inner searching will pay off with new confidence and real direction. Youwill begin your real life's work after this time, and your middle years will be very strong andsuccessful.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."Oct 21, 2011 1st Pass D> (Age 20 0m)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 inLandscape: Major Life Periods Page 16Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakecareer 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?Which 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 AirYou may have trouble understanding those who seem emotional or sentimental, yet yourown practicality and factuality may attract just such types into your life.

Notalways hot on the follow-up, you may tend to get the ball rolling and get out to move on toThe Elements, Modalities and Angularity Page 17Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeother things.Have CardinalYou 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.You have a high burn rate (index of change) and tend to run hot and fast. It is almost likehaving many lifetimes within this single one. Things are always fast and furious with you, andyou seldom remain calm for long. Your thirst for experience and growth keeps you always onthe move. You work through an enormous amount of change compared to an average person. Inparticular, the following qualities are areas where you have experienced and will continue toexperience much change. These areas of life persist in presenting themselves to you, so youmay already have become very experienced in them. On the other hand, they could be arenas inwhich you struggle but have not yet attained mastery.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.Your Burn Rate Page 18Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakePlanets in High FocusYour mind is exceptional in its clarity. All that is mental comes to you without struggle orlabor -- ideas, thoughts, mental things of all kinds. The light in your eyes reveals the brightnessof your mind to everyone who comes to know you.MercuryYour 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.MarsThere are big changes (high burn rate) throughout your life in matters of organization andresponsibility. It may be difficult for you to learn to be thorough, to finish things, and take careof all the loose ends. You may have a lot to learn regarding what is and what is not essential inlife -- separating the wheat from the chaff. Getting down to the nitty-gritty, the bare bones ofthe matter, could well be a major lesson.SaturnYou have a high burn rate when it comes to questions of your independence and autonomy.You tend to rebel and buck authority, and this will be a major source of change and adjustment.You will be concerned with issues of freedom and independence far beyond the average person.A passion for inventions, electronics, and the like can also be expected.UranusYou have a high rate of change when it comes to what you believe in -- your ideals anddreams. You adjust and change your ideals often and struggle not to get carried away with eachnew vision. The world of your imagination is a major focus of change.NeptunePatterns: 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.Appearances can be deceiving, and here is a case in point. Your appearance (the way youPatterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 19Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakecome on) and personality suggest that you may be inward, quiet, and concerned about whatother people think. This, in truth, is not the case. Although gentle-mannered, conservative, andsensitive on the outside, you are tough as nails on the inside -- as anyone can testify who gets toknow you very well. The fact is that you like attention and have a real need to be at the centerof any group. Your more sensitive style hides a strong, aggressive, and quite confident nature.You are at home in a crowd and enjoy the attentions of others. You expect them to come to you.Your mild mannered smoke-screen hides a real tiger. Appearances aside, let's take a look at thereal or inner you.Geo: Trine Helio: SquareYour Soul TypeYou are very gifted, having great magnetism and warmth and also a keen and powerfulmind. You can do anything you want to do in this life, if you can manage to get moving in onedirection and keep at it. This is a very fortunate chart, but one that may result in laziness. Youmay find it more convenient to neglect your mental, conceptual, and organizational abilities infavor of your social agility and animal warmth. People will value you for your warmth anddynamic qualities as much as for your ideas, and you may find it easier to acquiesce with youranimal warmth than to develop your mind. You can relate to almost all types of people withequal ease.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.Your 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 PersonalityYou are driven and passionate in your pursuit of change and inner growth. You possess, atthe core, an intensity that burns through superficialities, searching for opportunities to face thetruth and render the evident to view. This ceaseless analytical activity, while central to yournature, may be the source of discomfort to others.Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 20Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeThe Personal Hot SpotYour dreams and ideals are the number-one component for action in your chart. Yourimagination is crucial to your functioning.NeptuneInterface: 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.There could be a lot of emotional tension with this combination. You tend to set yourselfagainst whatever forces of change manage to rear their heads around you. This is never moretrue than where your feelings are concerned. Your attempt to remain untouched and impersonalseems doomed to failure. Everything intrudes, gets too personal, and threatens to hurt yourfeelings. Your insistence on being an emotional island is probably interspersed with bursts ofanger, even fits of rage.Mars Dis PlutoYou 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.Jupiter Dis VenusYou find it difficult to be spontaneous, to get away from routine and do something different.Others see in you a creature of routine. Travel may also be hard for you. It is not easy for you tochange or to accept changes. When you do enact a change, it is always at the deepest or corelevel and affects everything else in your life. Once a change is made, it at once becomes a partof you, solid and immovable. Those near you may feel that you inhibit the proverbial "life ofthe party." Code, computer programming, and the like should interest you.Saturn Inc UranusYour are very "bearish" when it comes to security and seldom make a move that does notstrengthen your position. You pursue responsibilities the way others pursue pleasure, and youInterface: Innermost qualities Page 21Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeeven invite obligations. Career moves are always solid, based on sound principles, and may betied in with the law or authorities -- all that is solid and well-reasoned. You don't invest inanything that is not tried and tested. Truth, religion, and philosophy are subjects of great interest.Saturn Inc JupiterYour 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 PlutoGetting 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.Pluto Dis MercuryMajor 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 provideinsight 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.Oct 04, 2013 1st Pass D> (Age 22 0m)Dec 09, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 2m)May 24, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 7m)Major Transits Happening Now Page 22Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou may find that both your personal growth and your career may depend upon how youcan handle the very sensitive psychological material that may be coming up now.

A tendency toprobe and analyze may not fit in with your normal way of thinking.Pluto Square MercuryHouse Activity and EmphasisThe twelve houses of the horoscope, particularly when they are occupied by a planet,provide a clue to areas of special activity and use. 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 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.LibraHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 25Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou have a strong drive to be seen and known -- to communicate yourself to others. Personalappearance (the way you present yourself) is also a motivating factor.Mars in First HouseSecond 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 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 could be a terrific business person, as you have an ability to get past the surface ofthings and separate out that which has real worth. In the area of possessions or material goodsyou will go through a lot of changes and learn a lot.Pluto in Second HouseThird 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 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 have real insight when it comes to anything connected to research, study, and the worldof ideas. Your independent mental approach to problem-solving and communication finds youcoming up with connections that are new and different.Uranus in Third HouseYour mind tends to be very imaginative and not concerned with facts and figures. Instead,ideas and writing of a mystical or poetic nature appeal. Research into religious or very idealisticHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 26Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakesubjects is indicated.Neptune 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 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 have very simple needs regarding home and surroundings. Some might find you frugal.It may be difficult for you to send down roots, build a home-base, and feel secure. Feelings andemotions may be on the sparse side.Saturn in Fourth HouseFifth 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 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.AquariusSixth 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 HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 27Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakePisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath the surface. Thissign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend to absorb all the little barbs anddigs coming from outside. They always have their mind on an inner goal, something moreimportant. They are very forgiving and accepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of moreimportant issues.PiscesSeventh 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 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.AriesEighth 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 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.TaurusNinth 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 thatHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 28Astro*Talk Layla Knowflakeis the very heart of things belong here.Ninth HouseGemini is concerned with connections and communication of all kinds -- letters, wires,telephones, 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.GeminiTenth 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 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.CancerYou have a natural insight and understanding as to what the public wants. Your career getsall kinds of support from other people, and you feel at home making practical and managementdecisions. You look to your work for strength and encouragement.Moon in Tenth HouseEleventh 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 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.LeoHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 29Astro*Talk Layla KnowflakeYou love community projects and group work of any kind. Your sense of values finds you onthe side of altruism and humanism at every turn. You appreciate goals and efforts at the globallevel.Venus in Eleventh HouseYou could make a career out of group or community work, anything involving attempts tobring large-scale and humanitarian dreams and ideas to reality. Your ideals and inner visionkeep what is best for everyone ever on your mind.Jupiter in Eleventh HouseTwelfth 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 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.VirgoYou naturally are a giving person, sacrificing your own interests for the sake of an innervision -- what you feel is right. A born psychologist, you may find yourself counseling andcaring for the mental needs of others.Sun in Twelfth HouseYour mind is naturally interested in all that is psychological and beneath the surface ofthings. Ideas of self-sacrifice and compassion -- how to serve and help others -- are what youtend to think about.Mercury in Twelfth HouseHouse Activity and Emphasis Page 30

The horoscope provides a permanent record of what surrounded life at its beginning. It is theblueprint from which the following interpretations are read.Interpretation text is from Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millionsboth by Grant Lewi and published by Llewellyn Publications.The cover art is by Hannes Bok, 1962All rights reserved.

Box 644383, St. Paul, Minnesota 55164-0383Program Copyright 1985-2007 Matrix Software, Inc.Chart Data Page 2Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeIntroductionGrant Lewi (1902 - 1951) is a legendary figure among twentieth century astrologers. 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 Layla 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 Libra and your dominant planet is Venus. Notonly the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also the attribute overwhich it rules. Thus Gemini, ruled by Mercury, lives a great deal in the senses; Libra, ruled byVenus, 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 Libra and Moon in LeoThis is one of the romantic positions whether the romanticism takes the form of poetry and art,or whether it simply makes you susceptible to romance in its less constructive form. Creative art ofsome sort will be your best medium of expression. You must guard against the less desirablemanifestations of romance. You are a temperamental, but able, person. Some quality of romantictemperament and artistic ability will attach to you in any case. Your ideals are your guiding stars,and you will stick to them to the end, believing in them as in a religion. There is somethingdevotional about your nature anyway, both in matters of human affection and also in a moreabstract way. You have an active and conscious idealism which you always strive to live up to, andin some way or other generally succeed. You are independent, especially where your love or yourideals are concerned - or your art, if you are an artist. You believe in art for art's (and for your own)sake and are unlikely to let considerations of commercial value or of expediency interfere withHoroscope of Birth Page 4Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeeither your art or your love. You are ardent, sincere, and honorable in your love.In a male horoscope, there is difficulty through members of the opposite sex, idealismfrequently finding poor response in the people selected. This position gives you considerableambition of a very high-minded sort. There is a kind of naivete about you that invites deception andyou have to learn to be unforgiving and to remember your unpleasant experiences. You are such anidealist and such an optimist that the blows of the world glance off you. You remember the pleasantand forget the unpleasant - an admirable trait in personal dealings so long as you learn byexperience what sort of thing to watch out for the next time.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 Libra"He prayeth best who loveth bestAll things both great and small."Samuel Taylor Coleridge,born in Libra, October 21, 1772.Libra's aim is to identify himself with as much of the rest of the world as suits the demands ofhis very eclectic and elegant taste. Despite a gentle and firm sort of independence, he does not putmuch stock in "being himself," for he values other people a great deal and, if no principle isinvolved, will please others before thinking of what he wants. In a deep sense, what he wants iswhat makes others happy. In some this makes weakness. The girl who "made love only to herfriends and didn't have an enemy in the world" was very likely a Libran. But so also is the girlwhose charm is so great and whose interest so eager that she holds a man's attention withoutyielding to his carnal passions. And many who have tried to force the apparently yielding Libranalong a path counter to his principles have felt the iron hand in the velvet glove.Libra's willingness to lose his identity in others - in society, in marriage - makes Librans idealcompanions, or mates, for those who understand the curious need they have for independence thatHoroscope of Birth Page 5Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeaccompanies their selflessness. They merge with others, but they retain their identity, and willwithdraw completely if their identity is attacked or endangered. They are democratic in spirit, butsince they identify themselves with elegance, will not allow themselves to be forced into contactwith things or people that offend their very strong sense of good taste. Thus they are often thoughtaristocrats or snobs, when in reality they have the deepest kind of inspect, sympathy andunderstanding for all sorts and conditions of men.They also have a great deal of respect, sympathy and understanding for themselves, and see noreason why they should ever give this up. They are the living embodiment of the cooperative spirit;they will work with you till they drop, but rarely for you. By the same token, if they are executives(and they often are) they treat their subordinates as partners, not as servants. Much is expected ofthe man who works for a Libra boss, who in return pays him well and treats him as an equal. Theaide who does housework for a Libra mistress must keep the place spotless, but is treated withrespect, as a fellow mortal whose human dignity must never be violated or imposed on. Libra findsdeepest satisfaction in harmonious union with those around him, and with the whole world, whichis not too much to be taken in by his warm and tolerant spirit.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. You have great energy, persistence, and overcoming ofobstacles, and can make it to the top.Sun Conjunct Mercury Orb: 00°40'You have a sound mentality. Along whatever lines you work you are fundamentally sane. Evenwith the erratic aspect, Sun square Uranus, Sun square Neptune, and Mars square Saturn, whichmakes for nervousness, you have a hitching post of normalcy. Men and women with this aspecthave an assurance against serious or permanent mental difficulties which will carry them through awhole lot of stress and bring them out the right side. You have fixed opinions though you are notstubborn. You are tactful and considerate of the opinions of others. You are studious and sound inyour intellectual work, but this position does not in itself make for creative ability. This will makefor perseverance - the ability to add the ninety-nine percent of perspiration to genius's one percentof inspiration.Sun Square Uranus Orb: 00°53'You've sown your wild oats - and how! Your intellectual development was a good deal inadvance of your emotional development, and as a result you had ideas, notions, theories, ofindependence and of human relations which you put into practice, considerably to the despair ofyour elders. You're a liberal in every way, with advanced social, political, and personal ideas.Individualism is very important to you, and your own ego comes first. As you grow older thisoutlook broadens from the purely personal to the more general; you turn from egocentric tohumanitarian, interested in large ideas, large groups of people, social problems in the large. This isHoroscope of Birth Page 6Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeone of the aspects of idealism but on its way to that state it goes through many ramifications. Youhave been dejected and depressed and discouraged; probably you've had your share ofunconventional and erratic love affairs. You always tend to be something of a romantic; no matterhow much you control, or how much you learn to translate the personal into the impersonal, anadventurous spirit keeps gnawing at you. This is the aspect of Ulysses, forever wandering the seas -even when he's sitting by his hearth with Penelope. Translate your adventuresomeness tointellectual, rather than geographical or personal variety, and the world is at your feet.Emotionalism will dominate you because of your Sun square Neptune. You are a sensationalistand need to depersonalize yourself consciously.In any case, you have a periodically explosive temper and must learn the lessons of cooperationboth with the world in general and with individuals. You tend to think that you are right and all therest of the world is crazy, which may be true but doesn't make much of a hit with the world.Sun Square Neptune Orb: 03°11'This is a treacherous aspect, subtly weakening the will power and making you susceptible toinfluences that arise not always from worthy sources. You are a sensationalist and will go out ofyour way for the bizarre, the unusual, or the mysterious in experience. You have to look out for thistendency, which leads you to seek strange and unreliable associates. A certain nebulous andimpractical idealism attaches to your emotional and thought processes. You are likely to think inbeautiful and vague circles and to give yourself up to dreams and emotions of a hypnotic anddangerous quality. Reason should be your constant aim, and you should avoid thinking or actingalong inspirational, intuitive, or sensational lines.MoonWhile 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.Horoscope of Birth Page 7Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMoon in LeoThe portrait you paint of yourself is heroic and towers above the world you inhabit. To live upto the level of your inner picture is a lifetime job requiring energy, courage and considerable senseof the drama of existence. Private satisfactions are not very important to you; you are lessintrospective than most. You want to see the tangible evidence of success, and like it best if the restof the world can see it, too. You are a bit of a show off, but since you are utterly honest withyourself, you can laugh at your own vanities, even when they remain important. You want valuablepossessions, well-groomed children, good clothes, accomplishments and evidences ofaccomplishment that others can applaud. Your desires are basically simple, and your methods ofgetting them direct; you know what you want and are willing to make sacrifices for them. Youwon't sacrifice personal integrity, however, or honor, which are the intangibles that do matter toyou. Education, culture, art, music, however, matter less. You can take 'em or leave 'em alone; andten to one, if you do take 'em, it isn't because they really feed your soul, but because you thinkevidence of such a soul will in some way add to your prestige. Throughout your life you will striveto fulfill an image of yourself which is less a portrait than a statue dominating the landscape of yourlife by its size, its beauty, the dramatic quality of its setting and the colorful beauty of its trappings.And in becoming this statue you are likely to become a lot of other more spiritual things which youdon't even desire and which are added to you because of the honest workmanship that goes intoyour self sculpture.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.You overcome psychological handicaps for an intellectual triumph over yourself; you are themind-that-found-itself type of person, though not necessarily in extreme form.Moon Conjunct Venus Orb: 01°04'Grace and charm if a woman, and personality or its equivalent if a man, make human relationsand therefore life easy for you. You are likely to be one of the spoiled darlings of society, capableof winning people over simply by appearing on the scene. Considerable beauty generallyaccompanies this position, and even if your features don't look regular to you, there'll always belots of people who see something there that they find easy to look at. You are a trifle vain and willspend money for adornment even if you have to go without something else that you may needmore. But this is unlikely to happen, for there is a good deal of material luck with this position, andsomeone or something will probably pop up at the last minute to save you from financial distress.This aspect in itself doesn't make you very aggressive in either profession or personal life, but withother aggressive indications will insure the success of your ventures. A woman with this aspectmay be a social leader of some importance or in some way the center of her circle; while a man issure to have a charming, popular, and helpful wife. If you have this in your chart, you will find thatyour business and professional career is materially helped by social contacts, and that society isimportant to you. You thrive on people, parties, and amusements; while anything connected withthese (singing, acting, producing, drama, music, writing for the public) will provide your bestmedium of expression and your surest way to success.Horoscope of Birth Page 8Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMoon Sextile Mars Orb: 05°36'You have a vigorous mind - sharp, quick, satiric - and a clipped manner of speech. You have anaggressive spirit which may or may not be manifest in your actions, but which causes your plans tosoar and your ideas to expand. You have good control over your passions, which are strong; anduse your anger to good purpose. You are a dangerous enemy because your fires are leashed anddirected to go to the mark. In a man's horoscope this gives an aggressive wife, possibly a shrew,who none the less is good for him, stimulating him to action at the same time that she makes himmad.Moon Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 07°11'Character is your god. you believe in your own personal worth from a moral and characterviewpoint. Your abilities may be high or low, depending on other things, but you are utterlydependable and can be counted on to do the right thing and think the right thoughts. This doesn'tmake you puritanical or cold, because you have a naturally cheerful and optimistic nature, verysympathetic with other people and their troubles. You have a genuine feeling for your fellow man,his problems and difficulties. This is the aspect of the missionary who may be interested in people'ssouls, but chiefly wants to take care of their physical comforts on earth. Here are found socialworkers, doctors, nurses, and executives in these fields, to whom their occupation is more than ameans of livelihood - it's a conviction and a passion. You have a certain nobility of approach and ofmotive - you couldn't be mean or petty if you tried, and thus your popularity and luck are welldeserved, and nobody grudges them to you. You can be a stern judge, but you will always temperjustice with mercy. You will condemn people, perhaps, morally, but be reluctant to punish them,and you are never vindictive. You're well fixed financially. This is an aspect of extraordinarygoodness. The humanitarian motive is uppermost and makes you an extraordinarily fine person.Moon Square Pluto Orb: 08°36'The important lessons in your life will be learned through your relationships. Men, themother-figure will shape your reactions to all women. Women, you base your conception of yourown femininity and nurturing abilities on the feedback you received from your mother. You tend tohold on to the past and act on your early conditioning until you realize how your subconsciousreactions and motivations hold you back. You may feel you need freedom, thus avoiding closeemotional relationships, when what you really need is to take a direct and personal responsibilityfor the direction of your life and the satisfaction of your emotional needs. Compromise is one of thekey lessons of your life.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.Horoscope of Birth Page 9Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeMercury in LibraSense impressions reach you through a strict moral and aesthetic censor. You see, hear, taste,smell and feel with the proprieties of art and society in mind, and have few sensory reactions thatdo not have to submit to this type of judgment. A color is not just red to you; it is a warm red, or acold red, or a beautiful or ugly red. Further, in addition to the artistic standard, you apply thestandard of good taste, and what you see or hear will revolt you if it doesn't conform with your ideaof what is "out of the top drawer." You are a kind of sensation snob, and the simple meaning ofsense experience is likely to be lost on you if it in any way offends the standards of nicety you setup for yourself. Needless to say, you are very sensitive to odors and all kinds of physicalsurroundings. Your house must be spick-and-span (so that your sight will not be offended); noisesif any must be subdued and quiet (not to affront your ears); the odors of cookery must not penetrateto the living room (for your nose's sake); what you eat must be seasoned just so (or your tongue andmaybe your stomach by attraction will revolt); and last, but not least, your mate's face and handsmust be smooth (even if she has to do the cooking and the laundry), so that your reaction will bepleasant when you touch her. All these niceties can make you fussy, but, if turned to their best use,make you gentle, considerate of others, and gifted in one or more of the arts where your greatsensitivity is translated to creations that reflect it in beauty.Mercury Square Uranus Orb: 01°33'Quickness and mental facility are your gifts, with a periodic insight of great swiftness andaccuracy but no great stability. Your mental control is not good, and your energies are wasted intemperament. You are independent in thought and action and your own mentor of opinion,frequently differing violently from established authority - and more likely than not to get intotrouble through tactlessness. You like to talk back to policemen. The revolutionary spirit is strongin you with a "whatever it is, I'm against it" attitude. You like a battle of wits and will take the otherside of the argument just for the fun of it or to help out the underdog. Your great independence andvigor of mind can make you a leader of thought when you have learned to get the chip off yourshoulder.Mercury Square Neptune Orb: 02°31'You are a daydreamer. You think abstract and impractical thoughts which you weave into aweb of reality but can't put into practice. You love beauty, music, and art and should try to masterthe creative technique of one of these to put your inspirational faculties to work. You havedifficulty concentrating. You are easily distracted, not so much by things or people around you asby the wandering tendencies of your own mind. Even when you are shut up alone in a quiet room,little is likely to be accomplished.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 yourHoroscope of Birth Page 10Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeSun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same signwith your Moon; emotions also gain importance, bearing directly on your inner nature, adding toself confidence, making you sensitive to emotion impressions, and frequently indicating that youhave more love in your heart than you are able to express.Venus in LeoYou dramatize emotional experience to the hilt. Your emotional responses are both honest andcalculated. They aren't spontaneous, but they aren't hypocritical. They are geared to serve your totalpersonality and to insure that they will make the right effect. You know how you look when you'rekissing or being kissed; and you're clever enough to avoid the appearance of posing. You aresomething of an introvert; love is yours to give or withhold, according to your wishes. If yourdesires are strong, it is due to some other position in the horoscope, because Venus in Leo,considered as a unit, enables you to shut desire on or off at will. When on, it can be a wow; whenoff, cold as ice and unapproachable. No one with Venus in Leo ever was talked into anything. Inemotions, you do all the talking, and the only plea you hear is your own. This position is wonderfulif you're on the stage and tends to make a stage of your life even if the theater isn't your profession.Venus Sextile Mars Orb: 06°41'Strong and magnetic personality with a large amount of sex appeal of the more desirable sort,intense without being erratic; and emotionally reliable. You are likely to marry well so far asmoney is concerned, and also to have good earning powers of your own if you should need them.You spend freely especially in the pursuit of pleasure or the purchase of finery. You profitmaterially through your parents and probably will have some legacy from them or from someoneelse. Money is important to you. You are a materialist, and your ideals have a touch of earth inthem. You are ardent rather than romantic though if other positions show romanticism this will lendvitality and realism to what might otherwise be a nebulous ideology. You will never want forsweethearts, and you'll be popular always, a social leader gathering people around you - and lovingit!Venus Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 06°06'You are gentle and idealistic and likely to have your feelings imposed upon. Idealism will bethe keynote of your nature at the start of your life, but the world will doubtless take a great deal ofthis out of you, though it can never destroy it entirely. A naive faith in goodness prevails to the end.You are religious according to some faith or fashion, probably orthodox, believing in the reward ofthe righteous. Some wealth is shown by this position. With your Venus sextile Mars, you find muchcontentment and security, a sheltered life, peaceful and calm.Venus Square Pluto Orb: 09°41'You are more aware of love's burdens than its bliss. You do want a permanent, growing loverelationship, but you seem to attract the type of people who aren't willing to give as much as youneed. With time you will learn the positive meanings of love, which will be all the more precious toyou because you already know the pains. One of the things you may become more aware of as youexperience love is that your relationships reflect your own inner turmoil; as soon as you startHoroscope of Birth Page 11Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakerespecting yourself as you are now, you will find that you attract a giving, loving person moreeasily. Marriage could occur out of a strong need for financial and emotional security. Some ofyour love affairs could be secret ones, possibly with married persons. An intense love affair forwhich you are forced to give your all could bring about a transformation.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 is in the same sign as your Sun, this gives abundant energy,sometimes misdirected in temper, temperament and quarrels.Mars in LibraYour social urges are powerful - sometimes too powerful for your own good. You areemotionally impressionable-your energies flow out to others and carom back to you with the addedmagnetism of other people, good or bad. You are sensitive to what you call love, and one way oranother will have a lot of it in your life. You seem to sense instinctively that you are tooimpressionable, and in an effort to seem more independent than you are, will quarrel unnecessarilywith those who impress you most forcibly - it is your defense against succumbing to them utterly.You must string for true cooperativeness of spirit, instead of being alternately as meek as a lamband as mad as a hornet. Your energies and your emotions are always working together or againsteach other: your emotions express energetically and physically, and your energies run wild throughemotional channels. You require detachment of spirit, objectivity of approach to other people, andmoderation in the social and love instincts which tend to run away with you, upset your life anddestroy your peace. Learn to accept other people more easily, to achieve true union with others andto fight down all extremes of human relations. Enmity and anger disturb the ego centers in youmore than in most people; to be your best self requires harmony, and to achieve true harmony, youmust learn that living with others is a two-way business and is not helped either by completeself-surrender or complete self-assertion.Mars Square Saturn Orb: 08°25'This is an aspect of bad judgment and of that peculiarly insidious form of bad judgment whichfor years may appear to be "getting away with it" until the accumulated flaws in your life toppleover the structure of your existence. If you have this aspect in your chart you will do well to sitdown right now and make a thorough analysis of your life, your position, and your security, to seewhether you are not operating on a major fallacy - a fallacy concerning either your own capabilitiesor the nature of the world in which you are working. Somewhere along the line you are making afundamental mistake in estimating your own capacity, or the extent of your security.This aspect will give you some sort of an inferiority complex to bring you under the dominanceof older people. In general it will retard your development, making you indecisive and too willingHoroscope of Birth Page 12Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketo take advice and guidance. You are likely to be imposed upon - with periodic and depressingbursts of rebellious temperament which serve to wear you out without accomplishing anything else.You struggle for a decision, letting things mill around in your mind for a long time indeterminatelywithout really concentrating on the facts and figures; and finally, out of sheer impatience you jumpto a conclusion which may not have any relationship with the facts or with your mullings. Thedominance of others, early responsibilities, and a sort of nervous rebellion toward them cause youdifficulty in orienting yourself to the world. None of these things, of course, is fated, and thedifficulty may be overcome by the assumption of independence in youth; by a philosophic attitudetoward obligations which cannot be avoided, and an accompanying determination not to beimposed upon, or by a strict course of self-analysis, to get at the roots of your indecision - ifnecessary, to change your environment and your occupation in order to rout out those factorswhich' are psychologically distressing.Finances will bear watching especially with respect to sudden losses due to bad judgment inbusiness matters, and the emotional nature must be carefully guarded against the incursion offactors that make for psychic biases in human relations. In a woman's horoscope this usually meansdisagreement between husband and father, or husband and brother, or husband and sons - or all ofthem. You had to defy your father to get married at all, or throw off some obligation or tie whichsomeone is trying to foist on you. Whether other factors do or do not exist, however, the Nemesisof erroneous judgment very temptingly presented, must be watched, and you must make everyeffort to analyze strictly what you do from a purely rational, logical, and unemotional viewpoint.Mars Square Neptune Orb: 07°47'This aspect accompanies spiritual thought and spiritual leadership and is found in theexecutives of the Church and of spiritual and occult organizations as well as occasionally amonggreat military leaders who have an unusually magnetic personal hold over their men. It gives you aspiritual insight into the affairs of earth, and a practical viewpoint about ideas of heaven. You areconscious of the two worlds which are not separate entities to you but related and integrated partsof the same whole. Thus, in strong executive horoscopes, this spiritual-practical approach givesyour personality the ring of authenticity and divine right. You speak "not as the Scribes andPharisees, but as one having authority," and you somewhat overawe those who come in contactwith you. Whatever possibilities your horoscope shows, this will lend subtle but powerful force toit and give you a grip on the minds and hearts of men that is invaluable.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.Horoscope of Birth Page 13Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeJupiter in VirgoThis position enables you to find opportunity in small beginnings, to take infinite pains with thelittle things that underlie success, and to plug along at a hopeless cause until - lo and behold! - itamounts to something. The effect you give is of care, caution, and routine perfection of details; andbecause of this, you are often able to win support from financial interests who value these traits andconsider them good credit reference. You will generally be able to get backing for your business;you believe in putting all your eggs in one basket and watching the basket, with the result that youfrequently hatch quite a brood. Spectacular or risky ventures don't appeal to you. If this positionlimits the imagination somewhat, it is also likely to get you farther in the long run than the dashingfellow who has been through several fortunes, or jobs, while you have studiously been cultivatingyour own garden and raising a fine crop of security and possessions.Jupiter Trine Uranus Orb: 05°22'This is merely a contributing aspect and has little force of its own. It adds stability to thecharacter and in some degree to the fortunes, giving an element of luck to the economic status andbroadening the outlook. If creative power is shown, this will give it great breadth, scope, and socialhumanitarian appeal. If a business career is indicated, this builds the fortunes and makes belovedexecutives and managers. If public life, this tinges the purpose with a broad social outlook that mayreach the constructively radical.Jupiter Trine Neptune Orb: 09°26'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.SaturnSaturn 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.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 SaturnHoroscope of Birth Page 14Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakein 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.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.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: 04°04'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: 08°51'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.Horoscope of Birth Page 15Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeNeptuneNeptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality,indicating what you take deeply for granted in life.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,regardless 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: 04°47'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 theHoroscope of Birth Page 16Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakebetterment 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.Pluto 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 17Current 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 7, 2014 - Pluto Square MercuryYour ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writingand study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become soCurrent Transits Page 18Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeobsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One ofthe things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning andimportance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time whenyour tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certainforcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turnpeople off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely andclearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, intalking about it, you don't get carried away.Jan 27, 2014 - Mars Conjunct MarsThis is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideaspromoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellentadvantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is thetime when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. Youare starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the nexttwenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into whichto direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling youroats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrenttwo year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments,activity and changes.Feb 12, 2014 - Uranus Square UranusThis upper square falls at the age of about sixty-three and should indicate the abandonment ofindividualism, so far as external affairs are concerned. To go through this period without "drawingin your horns" is to lose the peace of your later years. Any desire which has not been achieved bynow should be abandoned - released from concentrated effort. Your mind should be allowed todwell on personal, intellectual matters; for as a result of releasing your drive for vindication in theouter world, you give your accomplishments of the first sixty years a chance to work and gainrecognition for you after you have, in a sense, voluntarily given up the struggle. Protect health fromnerves in this period and the years that follow.Feb 19, 2014 - Jupiter Square SunNew starts work out well. Plans for long term activities, such as business or marriage, get offfavorably. Home is a good base of operations; and, if other indications for this time concur, it is agood time to buy a permanent home. Extravagance in private life needs controlling, but money isprobably well spent because concentrated on basic and permanent possessions and should besteered into these channels. Entertain, build self-assurance by surrounding yourself with the thingsand the people that make you feel relaxed and comfortable; the ego thus stimulated shines out andhelps you toward advancement. Derive your satisfaction from personal pleasures rather than frompublic acclaim.Mar 3, 2014 - Uranus Opposite SunThis aspect brings externalization of self, breaking of ties and sometimes the formation of newCurrent Transits Page 19Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketies to replace old ones. Marriage at this time indicates that you are marrying on impulse or perhapsto get away from some other undesirable tie. Or it may indicate marriage to an eccentric, neurotic,original or creative individual. It isn't a good time for marriage because you are touchy and startmarried life by getting into bed on the wrong foot. Creative impulses are strong; your magnetismhelps you make rapid strides, if you are controlling the purely self centered and self-indulgent urgeswhich are powerful. Watch nerves; put less stress on individuality and more on cooperativeness.Think less of forcing your will on others, more of understanding their wishes. If you're a genius or agreat personality, this is an outstanding period of your life; if you are an ordinary mortal, you haveto look out for expressing the temperament of genius without getting its results or meriting itsrewards.Mar 15, 2014 - Uranus Opposite MercuryYou experience periods of mental stimulation, eccentricity, self assurance and self-indulgence.At first there are quarrels, strife, resentments, followed by illumination, originality andinventiveness. Financial setbacks are due to bad judgment, risks, erratic moves or desires andimpractical schemes. If you're sufficiently controlled, you find creative originality all the way up togenius. If you're not, temperament takes you all the way down to nonsense.Mar 21, 2014 - Jupiter Square SunPublicity and public affairs favor you and tend to go to your head. You may get careless withmoney, extend credit too far, and thus lay the basis for later regrets. Restraint brings you gainthrough important people. You profit by pull, if you are willing to use it as a stepping stone to workand honest effort. Avoid over-extension of ego and authority; be content to take a back seat. Useopportunities, not to promote fame or prestige, but to build foundations on which these may rest inthe future. Protect health from excess; some danger of physical setback through self indulgence oroverwork. Raises of salary come automatically, if at all, and you gain little by demanding. Restassured that you will get no more and no less than you deserve, and that the intrusion of the ego ismore likely to bring disappointment than favors.Mar 31, 2014 - Mars Conjunct MarsThis is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideaspromoted.

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.Current Transits Page 23Heaven Knows What Layla KnowflakeSep 20, 2014 - Mars Square JupiterThis will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or throughover-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is tooenthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance.This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and badluck.Oct 18, 2014 - Jupiter Square PlutoThis is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter caninflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - thanever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death orbecoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at adistance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a greattime for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into theante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of theclass curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever.Nov 5, 2014 - Pluto Square MercuryYour ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writingand study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become soobsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One ofthe things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning andimportance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time whenyour tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certainforcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turnpeople off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely andclearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, intalking about it, you don't get carried away.Nov 8, 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!) fromexcess 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.Nov 9, 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 wellCurrent Transits Page 24Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakeconsidered 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 islikely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead offigurative and quarrelsome.Nov 10, 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.Nov 13, 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 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.You should not let distractions interfere with plans you started when Mars was conjunct Mars onJul 9, 2014. Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rulethe emotions.Nov 30, 2014 - Saturn Square MoonThis is a period of some emotional stress, perhaps a physical or material setback. Yourpersonality begins to work toward objectifying itself, and you are now finding that you may losesomething in the process. Not to feel sorry for yourself is the chief prescription for this period.What you will lose is mainly sentimentality - an attitude toward yourself better forgotten. What yougain is re-evaluation of your personal qualities, an ability to stand outside yourself, and to marshalyour mental and emotional energies so that you will continuously master them in the future. Yougain a certain hardness, which need not destroy your human qualities, but which will enable you touse mental, emotional and creative powers more effectively in the future. The beneficial result ofthis period is self-mastery through objectivity and detachment. In lovematters you may have adifficult period. In material matters you are likely to mark a low point. The ego is too muchoccupied with itself to be materially effective in the world, but learns the need of effectiveness as aresult of this experience. This square paves the way for the Moon opposite Saturn which will comein about 7 years; the more you learn here, the less stress will be found in the opposition when itCurrent Transits Page 25Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflakecomes. During this period you are able to learn by the experience of others or to help others withwhat you have learned by your own experience. What happens to you here or to those around youshould be taken to heart and applied to yourself. The aim should be self-discovery throughemotional experience: taking your whims less seriously, that you may take your true virtues moreseriously.Dec 4, 2014 - Mars Conjunct SaturnThis is a good time to slow down and if you don't do so voluntarily, you may be forced to do soby a cold or some other type of illness. Do your duties quietly and solidify the existing position inwhich you find yourself. Superiors need kid-glove handling; you may feel hampered and restrainedin your work; your energies may be forced into a yoke that chafes. Be philosophical about takingwhat comes; passivity and acceptance rather than activity and aggression serve you best. You buildgood, substantial foundations, despite limitations; or else you kick over the traces and probablyregret it later. You may experience colds, low vitality, fatigue, nerves, or your system may becomerun down. Take a rest cure if you can. If you stay well, those around you may be ill, increasing yourresponsibilities.Dec 9, 2014 - Saturn Square VenusExperience finds its mark in your heart, and some home truths about emotional matters areimpressed on you. This period is usually accompanied by separation or break, caused bycircumstances or quarrels and followed by a maturing process that enables you to revise youremotions along more practicable lines. Disappointment in others or in yourself, or both, leads youtoward a saner approach to human relations. In material matters, you are generally required toskimp to make both ends meet, or you may experience the loss of money or security.Dec 28, 2014 - Mars Square 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 emergefrom 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.Jan 8, 2015 - Mars Opposite 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 andCurrent Transits Page 26Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflaketrouble 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.Jan 10, 2015 - Mars Opposite VenusHeightened emotions make romance, which is favored if you keep it within the bounds ofreason and convention. Impulsive acts, with or without a future, are frequently found in theserecurrent periods. Glamour surrounds your approach to life; you are susceptible to the opposite sexand they to you. This transit frequently indicates the time of marriage within the period of a longertransit that favors it. If the era of romance is past, this indicates an active and on the wholesatisfactory social period; business progress; extravagance with money; a sudden urge to go placesand do things - and perhaps a chafing at the marital bit which should not be taken too seriously.Energies work through emotions and passions, which in turn work overtime and should be gentlydisciplined though not entirely submerged. Often, for obvious reasons, this transit indicates theconception of children, especially if it occurs while Mars is conjunct your sun or conjunct yourMars.Jan 18, 2015 - Mars Opposite JupiterThis will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or throughover-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is tooenthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance.This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and badluck.Jan 25, 2015 - Pluto Conjunct NeptuneThis is a time of questioning long-held beliefs in a search for personal meaning. You aren'twilling now to embrace an idea without first testing it to find out how well it fits into your generalscheme of the cosmos, your notion of the unity of all life. This manifestation is the highest onepossible with this influence, but there is the possibility that questioning will result in rejection -without replacement - of all you have believed in the past. Such disillusionment leads to confusion,which can have a long-lasting effect if you aren't wiring to adopt or construct some system of beliefon which to base all efforts at self-evaluation. Introspection is one of the main manifestations ofthis period.Jan 28, 2015 - Jupiter Square PlutoThis is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision.
