"...Part of Things to Come (Pars Futurorum)
The Part of Things to Come (also known as Part of Spirit) is next in importance after the Part of Fortune, because it is the Part of the Sun (Pars Solis). The point lies the same distance in longitude from the ascendant as the Sun lies from the Moon. The part is extracted in the contrary manner to that of the Pars Fortunae, in other words, by day from Moon to Sun and by night from Sun to Moon.Diurnal (Day) Births: Part of Things to Come = Ascendant + Sun - Moon
Nocturnal (Night) Births: Part of Things to Come = Ascendant + Moon - Sun
Its house signifies the soul and the body (after the Part of Fortune), along with matters of faith and intentions. With regard to health, it signifies the deeper, spiritual sources, rather than the simple material causes shown by the Part of Fortune. Moreover, as the name implies, it signifies the nature of things which are to come, rather than things present.
"The pars futurorum signifies the soul and the body, after the pars fortunae and the quality of these, and faith, prophecy, religion and the culture of God and secrets, cogitations, intentions, hidden things and everything which is absent, and courtesy and liberality, praise, good reputation, heat and cold... The significations of the pars fortunae appear more during the day... the pars futurorum appear more at night"..."

"...People who have been born at night and have been using the Lot of Fortune as computed by most software and computer services have actually been using the Lot of Spirit! The Lot of Spirit is a point which has strong psychological and spiritual overtones, unlike the very physical-plane based Lot of Fortune. The Lot of Spirit has to do with the nature of the will, what you intend (as opposed to what merely happens to you), and also has much to do with career, but apparently more your career as a statement that you make about what you are in the world. It also has to do with illness, like the Lot of Fortune, but it would seem that with the Lot of Spirit we are talking about the spiritual bases of illness as opposed to the physical bases. Unlike the Lot of Fortune, the Lot of Spirit does not often seem to have been use as a first house marker. Paulus Alexandrinus says the following about the Lot of Spirit. "Spirit happens to be lord of soul, temper, mindfulness, and every power; and sometimes it also cooperates in the determination concerning what one does." This is about all we can say about the Lot of Spirit at this point..."

"...Taken together, these two parts reflect the fundamental polarity of Sun and Moon, day and night. They are always symmetrical about the horizon and move in opposite directions through the houses as the elongation of the Moon from the Sun increases. According to Firmicus, the Part of Fortune shows 'the quality of life' and the Part of the Spirit, 'the essence of the soul'..."

"...Another example of a contrast between the parts of Fortune and of the Spirit is found in the nativity of Marilyn Monroe. The Part of Fortune is in sextile to the Moon, in conjunction with Venus, and trine Neptune. This shows her success, founded on the ability to project an almost mythical femininity. Not unexpectedly, in view of her tragic life, the Part of the Spirit is much less favourably placed, being in opposition to the Sun..."

I majored in journalism though. I think it's similar to a Venus influence.
