Anyway, in the chart you posted, it looks like this person has a short temper (moon in Aries) and also is very confident with a strong ego due to all the planets in fire signs. They also love the limelight (strong Leo influence) and may be swayed by flattery, which is not good.

I'd like to gently disagree that this person has an easy life because he or she (sorry, I don't know what gender the name Take would be) doesn't have traditional hard aspects such as the squares or oppositions. I'm sorry, he's got one square, Pluto squares Mercury.

I think everyone should take a long look at President Bill Clinton's chart. He also has only one square, yet we know that his life was anything but easy.

When you see a chart like this with what appears to be no developmental stress, this is the time when MINOR ASPECTS make their starring role. I'm talking about SEMI-SQUARES which are the 45 degree aspects, SESQUI-QUADRATES which are the 135 degree aspects, QUINDECILES which are incredibly strong, the 165 degree aspect. You also look for hard aspects to the Ascendant Axis, Midheaven Axis, and the Nodal Axis.

Two other things. First, CONJUNCTIONS are stressful aspects and GRAND TRINES are not the "GOOD LUCK" aspect we've been told they are. The FIRE GRAND TRINE in this chart suggests a closed circuit of motivational self-sufficiency. It is a huge defense mechanism, this person does everything himself or he lets you believe he can do everything himself, therefore it can guard against relationship because he may refuse to be helped. It can make those in relationship with him think that they are not needed.

Now, I don't know him, but that's some of what I would introduce into discussion with this person if he were my client.

He has 3 SESQUI-QUADRATES and 1 SEMI-SQUARE. He has 2 SEMI-SQUARES if you are an astrologer who used Chiron. Chiron semi-squares his Mercury. He also has 3 CONJUNCTIONS. I myself would call it 5 CONJUNCTIONS because there is such a huge focus within that stellium, I'm sure there is some bleed through to some of the looser conjunctions there.

Last, but not least, he's got Uranus quindecile Ascendant and Mercury quindecile MC.

Unfortunately I don't have time to read this chart, but for those who wish to take a crack at it, interpret the SEMI-SQUARES, SESQUI-QUADRATES and QUINDECILES as if they were squares. If you were to have an appointment with this man and include those aspects to lead you in discussion with him, you would see that he has anything but an easy life.

I also find it interesting to see the chart of someone who was born 2 days before The Harmonic Convergence, do any of the people my age remember that weekend? I saw my very first shooting star that Saturday night, but I was severely heartbroken over my first love. Oh well.

If you look at the large Kuiper belt objects which are objects that beyond Neptune

Sun square Quaoar with 9 minutes of arc
Sun square Ixion with 50 minutes of arc
Moon quincunx Ixion with 37 minutes of arc
Moon quincunx Huya with 34 minutes of arc
Mercury square Chaos with 16 minutes of arc
Venus square Quaoar with 2'28 orb
Venus square Ixion with 1'46 orb

Chiron is one of many of other centaurs in our solar system....here is some more hard aspects involving Centaurs besides Chiron:
He has Pholus square Midheaven with 32 minutes of arc
He has Nessus square Ascendant with 34 minutes of arc

With his ASC being the apex of a Yod with Neptune and Pluto, we both know how important that is because it also means that ASC=Neptune/Pluto as a midpoint picture. There really is so much here to suggest that he has a lot of developmental tension to push his life forward.

He has Moon oppose Mars/Saturn midpoint with only 24 minutes of arc. As you know, Mars/Saturn midpoint is viewed as rather difficult by cosmobiologists.

He is:

- organized
- intelligent enough but highly naïve and condescending
- knows what he wants
- good at speeches
- probably good as a leader (from what he mentioned)

On the negative side:

- does not have any understanding of people on a deeper level - on an emotional level.

- seems slightly alien because of his lack of understanding.

- he's very detached and only talks about surface issues. He knows he is 'missing' something in this department so he tries to fake emotion, but it comes across as superficial.

- he is highly self-centered and feels superior to others – but pretends that he is meek and modest.

- he has high goals for self-centered reasons.. although he will lie and say he has charitable goals to make himself look prettier..

- he would do anything to get what he wants – he would sell his soul, or back-stab his best friend to get what he wants, and once he has it he'd toss it out.. and move on to the next thing

- he is extremely distrustful of everyone. You pretty much can't have a normal lighthearted conversation with the guy..

- most people are skeptical of him in return (with good reason)

- appearance wise he is - I guess, what one would call – "dorky" - and has some nervous ticks.. which can seem a bit odd at times.

- he is involved with a shady group/organization and believes in their rules/teachings.. which are basically to control/manipulate others) - Picture - Tom Cruise and Scientology.

- The most naïve 20 yr old I've ever met.. quite weak-minded and weak-willed but has an image of himself as very strong and powerful.. although as soon as a problem comes up he hides behind the person next to him.

Can you tell us a little about your friend?

I'm completely neutral about Scientology itself. I've heard good and bad stories.

i wonder what he would think of his chart, being so beautiful (his is very rigid in his opinions, and to add, his is a mathematician which a very high regard for science as the only true path to knowledge).

he is also quite insecure in social relations. he distances himself from all his friends due to this persistent habit of telling them what he really thinks about them. i get the suspicion that he has been deeply rejected at some point, and distances himself from people as a coping mechanism.

he has the Leo characteristics of being slightly pompous. he loves talking about things as if he understands them completely. i have seen him be kind and sensitive before, so he is not all bad news, but he can be a very difficult personality to be around.

he also has a hard background - comes from a third world country (i'm not sure how he came to college here exactly) and i get the impression that his family is pretty tough. he is always tight on money and lives very minimally.

he has a hard time finishing his assignments on time and getting disciplined. i get the impression though, that does have many talents. his is very good at higher level math.

CoralFrequency, i can relate to many of the descriptions you listed.. you esp hit it on the nail with

" feels superior to others "

i get this impression often from him.

at times, i felt like he was trying to relate to others. he's a tad bit short (i noticed Leos can often be shorter or taller than usual) and i feel like he feels like he gets pushed off to the side too much.

"he is extremely distrustful of everyone"

another one that hits it on the nail. he has this look while you're speaking to him.. seems to say "do you really take yourself seriously?". i feel like its another self-defense mechanism.

i think this chart is very interesting to study! i often think of trines as the best aspects of all - you can imagine my total surprise when i pulled up his chart and saw this.
