For instance, you have marked abilities involving attention to detail, literature, educational factors and especially historical subjects. You could therefore write a good historical novel or help produce a documentary/docudrama which would be a source of inspiration to many.

In fact, you may have a great deal of interest in communications, the media and literature, especially that of an unusual or intuitive nature. Were you to apply yourself, you would make an excellent historian or journalist. With spiritual direction if you chose to do so, you would also make an excellent speaker, particularly on spiritual subjects.

You are also gifted in languages and especially in relationship to teaching not only English but also a foreign language. You would be rewarded through any teaching or ministry involving history, color and natural music, such as the songs of birds, the sounds of whales and the sea.

Mentally, you tend to seek objective results, even in more personal value-laden areas like religion and spiritual philosophy. Your mind is practical, worldly, self-confident and independent, with a marked tendency to categorize and analyze.

Your previous Mercurian lifetime prepared you well for the exercise of authority, yet inclines you to be somewhat dictatorial at times in how you communicate with others. That is, you have high mental abilities but with a tendency occasionally to be rather hardheaded and to want to have your own way. Apply your will toward the ideals of humility and flexibility. Also, try not to take yourself so seriously.

In sum, you are very high-minded, mentally well balanced, with an intellect which is healthy, optimistic and vigorous. You are capable of making for yourself a career in such fields as finance, politics or religion, especially teaching and the ministry.

You probably lived on the American frontier in your previous life, perhaps in Kentucky, Tennessee or Texas, where Daniel Boone and Sam Houston later became folk heroes. Or, a few centuries earlier, you may have been a Viking or Norseman: long before Columbus, you may even have crossed the Atlantic with the likes of Eric the Red!

You are able to make yourself felt in any environment or situation through the impressions you leave on others. Of course, it is not what one thinks or would have one believe that one thinks, but it is what one does that counts. Being very much the doer, and also very willful, your very presence is influential in many situations. By who you are and what you do, you leave impressions upon others; yet remember that what you are and do may speak so loudly sometimes that people do not hear what you say.

In Mars is found afterlife experiences in consciousness or in spirit which give you executive abilities. Therefore, in whatever line of endeavor you might engage in, or in whatever activity you may undertake, you could, in fact you WOULD make a success of it.

In addition, you are not one to act toward another as if they didn't exist or to behave in an entirely detached manner toward ANY experience which might be yours. Your development has been so energetically directed toward the Whole that everything you do -- whether good or bad, mental or physical -- must influence the next thing you do.

Learn, then, the first lesson: TOLERANCE. Hardships may be your lot until you gain the vision of the necessity or purpose of SPIRITUAL expressions in your relationships with other people. In Mars is found inclinations for there to be differences of opinion with others, as well as for your own personal purposes or desires to be magnified at times, rather than seeking the common level upon which cooperation may be had with other people.

As you seek more and more for a greater knowledge of those things that govern your purposes, or your desires and wishes from the spiritual angle for the experiences of others, more and more will your abilities incline towards those of a successful leader. [1450-1, 2681-1]

You tend to seek out new ideas and try new things yourself even if others have questioned their value. You are likely frequently to be undertaking specific projects which have good financial prospects and potentials for popularity and helpfulness. Yet more often than not, at least until you reach middle age, they have not materialized. Along with these challenges you may at times have a rather broad negative attitude toward life in the earth plane, as well as a low self-image.

When disturbing factors come into your experience you are likely to turn and seek a new direction, to start over again. This is a tendency from your indwelling as a soul in the Saturn dimension between earth lives. When these tests and soul trials arise, it would be well if you heeded the injunction to stand steadfast and see God's glory within you.

These disappointments and frustrations are probably returning to you from past life experiences in which you were responsible for bringing similar challenging experiences into the lives of others.

At times, your longing for changes in your associations has resulted in considerable daydreaming. Visualizing ideal situations and possessions or relationships which you might be engaged in, especially materially and financially, is an avenue you may often use for venting your frustrations.

As you learn patience and longsuffering -- out of a sense of seeing these obstacles and delays as opportunities for soul growth and giving rather than out of duty, doom or destiny -- greater will be your inner peace and spiritual development. [487-1]

As a Uranian soul from your afterlife experiences in the realm of Uranus, you are an extremist by nature, and in an unusual way, especially as a rebel in your beliefs, which are often quite unorthodox. Moreover, you are not only a Uranian, but also an Atlantean. At times you have a very high mental ability and yet never hedged in by orthodoxy: just as in your lifetime in ancient Atlantis, freedom of thought, purpose and action are of utmost importance to you, especially as related to spiritual subjects. In other words, these tendencies are derived not only from your experiences in Uranus but also from past life experiences in the earth plane. Perhaps you were a spy in the Civil War, a member of one of Israel's Lost Tribes who migrated to England, as well as an Atlantean who settled in early Egypt.

At any rate, while you are generally quite affable, there is a tendency for you to be impulsive in your decisionmaking, particularly in your choice of associations. That is, you may find yourself drawn to or being classed with casual acquaintances with little thought taken beforehand. Meanwhile these same individuals may see you as a very close friends when this was not your intention. Such situations rooted in hasty actions on your part may often result in many disruptions and upsets for you, especially sudden ones.

Your eccentricity and uniqueness from your soul experiences in the afterlife dimension of Uranus takes at least two forms. First, you have above-average psychic ability, with relatively strong drives toward the mystical and esoteric. On the other hand, the extremes which arise in your associations with others often take the form of being misunderstood: friendships are strained or even broken altogether, yet you may often not know why. Part of this is from your Uranian tendency to be at times too self-willed, perhaps being too abrupt or seeming to be rude. Do bear in mind that no soul ever has so many friends that they can afford to lose even a single one. Conversely, no one ever has so many friends that they could not add another.

You could succeed in such areas as mathematics/computer science, writing -- particularly history and 'New Age' subjects -- and political/social action. You would also be a natural both as teacher and advanced student in such esoteric sciences as symbology, numerology and astrology. As you pursue such endeavors, be reminded that you are a part of the Whole, a soul through whom others can be awakened to the Oneness of man with the Creative Forces of the Universe, or God.

In addition, one of the classic traits of an Atlantean is that you will either advance far through the hardships and disappointments you have experienced, or you will allow them to become such disturbances as to be stumblingstones along your spiritual path. As a result, consistent work with ideals will be invaluable for you this lifetime.

As you work with prayer and meditation in reinforcing your ideals, an affirmation which may be a helpful might be repeated in words similar to: 'I will be helped by the Spirit in consciously controlling my strong independent streak, so that my unconventionality will always manifest as ingenuity in thought and action, rather than reckless or self-righteous behavior. I will slow down my pace so that I may allow myself sufficient time to reflect and receive guidance (through dreams, for example) of the most suitable direction for me to take at a given time.' [2205-1, 951-4, 2573-1, 1537-1, 958-3, 2365-2]

Your participation in spats or arguments can become very disturbing through the anger felt. At times you may even like to argue. You are very self-determined yet with high mental abilities. You are nonetheless one that can be easily reasoned with. You will resent any strong criticism or undue pressure being put upon you in requiring you to do things.

You are not only exceptionally intelligent but at times somewhat power hungry. There is the likelihood of feeling intellectually self-important as a result of your high mental abilities. This inclines you to desire positions of fame and power. We should always be reminded that power in our hands when we do not consider the Source of all power can be worse than an albatross around our neck: it can be a millstone which drowns us.

A past life as an astrologer-soothsayer or powerful priest in ancient times, say in Persia or Egypt, may constitute the karmic roots for your tendencies intellectually to overpower and manipulate others with your knowledge. Long ago you may have used your position for personal gain with the result that in the present there may be tendencies toward self-exaltation. Present misuse of mental -- specifically higher consciousness -- powers, is probably rooted in just such a selfish lifetime long ago.

Since then, your likely sojourns in the consciousness dimensions of Mercury and Mars have brought your occasional intellectual power-tripping into the present. One way to keep such urges under control is to hold fast to an ideal founded neither in earthly or exclusively intellectual things. Instead, set an ideal rooted not only in spiritual applications of your own remarkable mental gifts, but also in that of others.

You are exceptionally well balanced mentally and physically. You are prone to giving and demanding much detail work both from yourself and from others. You have a strong striving for detail as well as an overall practical orientation of your strong mental energies. You are inclined toward the study especially of historic subjects. You have an open mind, apparently, on any question, yet you make all final decisions for yourself.

The major challenge to these potentials is what could be your mild hangup on being mentally high and mighty. That is, you are probably very determined in your purposes, perhaps going at times to extremes to gratify personal wishes which are unexplainable to others. You are one that might do well to heed the injunction, 'Mind not high things but humble yourself to men of low estate'.

Does changing your birth time 1 minute change your ASC? Or does the change alter any of your aspects?

Christina, that report's quite something; where'd you get it from? I've JUST been reading about Cayce and his past-life readings in this book called Many Mansions, and it is fascinating stuff!
