I just wanted to add my thoughts. I have to say I do feel strongly about -the died in war- thing. I have the 8 house cusp in Aries. You know that I am afraid of things exploding in my face?! Well, I haven't had this my whole life but it comes back all the time. Just now I was afraid that maybe my mobile phone (which is still in my bag in the hall) was going to give this big bang and explode! Or a monitor of the computer, aaaaah! I can just picture it and it is aweful! But hey maybe this doesn't mean anything (clearly it does, sceptic Virgo Asc. ). I was so afraid of bombs (or war) when I was younger. When an airplane would fly over, my heart would go BOOM BOOM, 100 beats per minute and I still have it occasionally. Horrible!
I also love the 30's and 40's decorating style and the music.

I know I have also lived in the dark/middle ages (many times I believe)in Ireland, Scotland and England. I adore Celtic music (makes me feel at home and centered) and actually almost everything about the UK. This aside now, the war being my last one (in earth-time that is).

I can see Pluto being close to the cusp of your 1st house, someone having been nasty or naughty. I know I have been, for SURE! Pluto is indeed 9 degr. away from the cusp. I was a very naughty girl once or twice ( But never was my intention to hurt anyone. Just curious and impulsive.

My retro's are Jupiter in 2 and Neptune in 3.

How are your fingers Stella?

I have Pluto 23 retro in Leo in my first house. The cusp is 20 deg. Leo. Does this mean I was very bad in a past life?

There are also 4 other retro planets all close to house cusps.

What does all this mean?

Mercy, I was reading another book about Edgar Cayce recently and his readings showed that things we're really afraid of in this life, and can't explain, is caused by something that happened in a former life.

Well, since the way to get popular in Lindaland is to get an exciting book, I continue typing (with very slippery fingertips)...

Retro Neptun 2.house (short version):
In general, Neptun in the 2.house indicates dishonesty in former lives, cheating, abuse of public funds or illegal profits made due to a high public position. If neptun is aspected by Pluto it might indicate illegal activity. As a reaction to his excesses in former lives, the native might in this life be rigourously honest, or at least should try to be. If neptun is in Scorpio it can in addition indicate an experience with the police in former life.

Retro Neptun 3rd house:
"The memory of a cheater" might have been written by this native. because he has no scruples when it comes to cheat on his exams. At school and at home, his brothers and sisters get excited by the stories he tells. Superficial entertainer, he has not been able to establish a real relationship with the people of his generation. His habits of intellectual dishonesty, taken on in his youth, leads to a later personality based on fake - today he doesn't have a real personality. Deceiving his pals, those close to him, he's an oppurtunist that turns his coat at any chance (and not always for the best use, as his judgement is unclear). This position indicates a karma vis-a-vis brothers and sisters, cousins and fellow students, that the native should help caringly.

Jupiter 3rd house:
Because this house is for mental activity, one might think that the native has had school problems. On the other hand, his judgement is not sure. Refusing the necessary dicipline for studying, missing tact in his words, inable to behave. He doesn't have a belief, he refuses to take any religious vocation seriously. It can also indicate a selfish relationship with brothers and sisters. The native should now try to come out of his huge ego, forget himself and learn to ask for councelling. He should start by applying the good principles to those close to him - and not show too authoritarian at their consideration.

Jupiter 2. house:
This house, like one knows, concerns the possessions and the money of the native.
With Jupiter retrograde one can imagine that the native has been using his means in a bad way, that he's been using money for his own profit instead of for service for the society. Depending on the sign, the native has behaved as avarice or like a scandalous playboy spending all the fortune of dad. The native, in this life, has to reflect over the fact that money is both a responsibility and a function.

Retro Saturn 3rd house:
In some former lives, the native, sitting very high on his icemountain, refused to communicate with his equals. Probably he also had family responsibility towards brothers, sisters, cousins that he didn't fullfill. This is coming back strongly on him in this life and he has only one thing to do: To bravely help those close to him, not refusing them his affection, his time, his money. He also needs to learn to communicate without beeing agrresiv or hiding himself into silence.

Retro Saturn 9th house:
The native has certainly lived as priest or priestess, initiated or spiritual guide in former civilisations. One can imagine that his job wasn't a complete success - maybe he was intolerant, dogmatic or fanatic? It's a typical position of a inquisitor or farisee.

Retro Pluto 9th house:
The 9th house is the house of spiritual idees, civil or religious law and it's within this frame retrograde Pluto indicates the karma. Well aspected, the planet indicates only the continuation of a job that was interrupted in a former life. Maybe the native was a priest, a judge, a missionary? At his death, he was not satiesfied of his task, something was not finished. he wishes to start again in this life. If Pluto is bad aspected the native certainly has misused his power, either juridically or religiously, or both - in a period where they where mixed. Did he kill in the name of belief? Did his use force to get his religious idees through? The 9th house corresponds to Sagitarius, the sign of spain, and suggests former lives as inquisitor...In this life his must cultivate tolerance and not be surprised if he meets his former victims.

I looked at my chart again, and re-discovered I have retros in Neptune (Scorpio) in the 10th house; Jupiter (Virgo) in the 8th house; Pluto (Virgo) in the 8th house; also both South and North Nodes are in retro motion. I was always told I was an old soul and it was something I would shrug off, but the majority of my life, I felt and still feel I'm in a constant state of deja vu. It's an eerie feeling sometimes, because it's like competing the past with the present and completing them at the same time. It leaves me with a feeling of being completely anachronistic at times and out of synch with my peers and the times. While it's an enriching and grounding experience, believing that one has been reborn, it is at times a lonely experience. Here's a question for those who can relate with what I've written: have you ever had an experience in which you met someone you've known in your past life? How did you deal with the situation?

My aspects with Neptune are:
Sun trine Neptune
Neptune trine Pluto
Neptune trine MC

Is my Neptune badly aspected?

I am so glad I have Neptune in second house, this means i am not materialistic.
Its hard for me to believe what you interpreted from my charts.
I honestly was never after money.

My 8th house is cusp with gemini and
taurus. I really don't understand cusp of stars an house. but 90% of 8th house is in GEmini and the other in taurus.
Does this mean I died young in last life?

Also, the 8th house interpretations are very interesting! It always seemed like the 8th house was a bit darker than the rest...the ruler of mine is Capricorn. I have Venus at the very end of my 7th house (also Cappy), and a lot of sites interpret it as being in the 8th.

The other retrograde planets I have are Jupiter retro in Leo in the 3rd house (ruler of the 3rd is Cancer though), and Pluto retrograde in Libra in the 5th house (5th house ruler is Virgo).

Does your book shed any light on Capricorn as the 8th house ruler or saturn in the 4th? (just trying for a less gloomy interpretation... )

Thanks!!!

Thanks!!

Cinni asked if someone has met people from a past or past lifes. Well I am sure we all do all the time, only one has more impact than the other concerning the lessons involved, the agreements we made before entering this life etc...
To say this in short, I am currently very much in love (like a magnet) with someone I believe to have known in the past. It was like we picked up where we left, love at first sight, magic etc.. An enormous attraction, very dramatic. Before him I met a soulmate whom I love unconditionally, always have and always will. The time we were 'together' (not really because he is married but he was a colleague) really opened my eyes and I am forever grateful. So this was very, very spiritual!
