First House
This is the House where we meet the world and is known also as the rising sign. It can describe our physical appearance or image and planets in this house are used to communicate something about the individuality of the person. For example, Mercury here would indicate that a person needs to communicate through speech and writing to express their individuality. There is an impulsive quality here, where we just are and are immediately recognised by the sign qualities expressed. Second House
The Second House is concerned with what we have in terms of material possessions and also our ability to use our special skills and talents to bring our possessions to us. It is the House of sustenance and what we must do to maintain our physical well being. It can also indicate our self esteem and the value we place not only on material things but also ourselves. Are we worth it?
Third House
This House is associate with Gemini and is the area in our lives where we communicate and disseminate information. It is also associated with short journeys and our local environment and siblings. It describes our early education, our schooling and is essentially a social house as it is where we begin to mee the world in social terms.
Fourth House
In my experience this house can be the house of Karma. It is associated with family, culture and traditions handed down through generations and as such can refer to past lives and those who we associate with in this life in order to help us work through our soul's purpose. The family teaches values and behavious which may or may not be appropriate as we grow up and leave the nest. A person with a strong planetary presence here may need to continue the role of perpetuating strong roots in a family situation.
Fifth House
This house is where we experiment with our social skills through interacting with friends and lovers. We learn about ourselves through others' reaction too our behaviour. Here we are encouraged to express our individuality and creativity and learn not to lose our spontaneity and our need for play. So this house also shows hobbies and pastimes and also the results of the most creative act, our children.
Sixth House
This House is associated with work and service to the community. It indicates how we can be part of society and give our skills to it in order society to benefit, not just ourselves. It is also the house associated with health and healing and our ability to maintain our physical systems as a cohesive whole. The work place becomes a macrocosm to our body's microcosm and we need to be aware of each part making a contribution to the wellbeing of the whole.
Seventh House
T his is the house of partnerships and commitment to others through marriage or long term relationships. It is opposite the First House and balances the needs of us as individuals with those we relate to on a permanent basis. We learn compromise and respect for others' individuality which can sometimes take several attempts to achieve! It is also traditionally the house of open enemies, and business partnerships.
Eighth House
This is the House of Scorpio and reminds us that there is one certainty in ife and that is death. It is the house of transformation, endings and beginnings and the ability to regenerate through sex. It is also associated with money and inheritance, and also the partner's money and finances. Our dues to society are shown in this house, through taxation and living by society's laws or dealing with the consequences.
Ninth House
The Ninth House is associated with religion, philosophies and belief systems, as well as higher education as opposed to school education in the Third House. It is where we formulate our code for living, either through our own learning and experience or we can adopt our culture's standards. Of course, this varies according to the different religons around the world and this house recognises the importance of different cultures and overseas travel. The key word is 'expansion'.
Tenth House
This is house is at the top of the chart and consequently refers to our highest ambition, usually seen through our career, which is how we are recognised and categorised by society. It represents the culmination of work and experience to achieve the goals we set ourselves and the authority other people invest in us as a result of all our hard work and achievement. An emphasised tenth house usually indicates a person who reaches the top and is acknowleged for that.
Eleventh House
This is concerned with our special friends and groups of people (not family) with whom we feel a common bond or association. There is a recognition that other people share our ideals and goals for the common good, perhaps through political endeavour or charities. It is where we can create the sort of society we want and not be afraid of change or challenge to tradition.
Twelfth House
This house has been much maligned in the past as its concerns are more to do with our inner world rather than outer achievements. However it can be the House of excellence as it is where we can recognise our true inner selves and act according to our greatest puspose. It may give us cause for doubt and demand that we question who we are, but that is its greatest strength. When we withdraw from the world and find a place of peace and solitude then we are in a position to commune with our higher selves, and planets in the Twelfth show a need for self reflection. Tradtionally it was considered the house of seclusion in hospitals, prisons etc..and the domain of secret enemies, but we are all capable of being our own worst enemy by failing to nurture our needs. It is the house where we return after the maelstrom of interacting with the busy world and can be the source of great inner strength and tranquility.

YOUR RISING(ASCENDANT) SIGN AND MOON SIGNS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TOO.
SUN
THE SUN
The sign which contains the Sun provides the basic key to the
personality and life potential. It exposes the individual's
major strengths and weaknesses, indicates the lessons to be
learnt and skills to be tapped. It may also be equated with the
male side of the personality as against the Moon's rulership of
the female. There are few specifics to consider regarding the
Sun, so the following descriptions are all brief. They are,
however, most important.
SUN IN CAPRICORN.
Conservative and practical, Capricorns often
lead very materialistic lives, judging people and opportunities
by financial considerations, chasing status, prestige and
possessions. However, they have very deep emotions which often
go unrecognised or unacknowledged. It is worth their while to
work at expressing their feelings more directly and openly.
SUN IN LEO (Dignity).
Leos are creative in the broadest sense,
and for them all the world's a stage. They are either proud,
regal and generous, or vain, egotistical and wasteful. Even if
they are unreliable as far as others are concerned, they are
completely consistent in their own behaviour; unpunctuality may
be a regular habit. They are instinctively faithful but easily
distracted by flattery. Their resistance to change can be a
major failing. Sometimes they find that after holding the centre
stage, the world moves on and leaves them stranded.
MOON
The sign containing the Moon provides clues for the astrologer
concerning the person's general emotional state, the female half
of the psyche, the mother, attitudes to the mother, maternal
instincts, the home and family background and the general public
face. There are a great many specific statements that can be
made about this rich and varied planet, and the following sample
interpretations provide a basic summary.
MOON IN AQUARIUS
Emotional independence is the key to this position. These people react very badly if they think they are being tied down emotionally or domestically. They resent obligations and responsibilities, and home conditions may be unusual and unsettled. The Moon in Aquarius is particularly connected to the women's liberation movement, although it is also connected to the traditional ways in which women assert
themselves.
MOON IN PISCES
For these sensitive and shy people the home can
provide a refuge from the hard knocks of the real world. They
are compassionate and hospitable, but should try to develop a
thicker skin without losing their natural kindness. Home life
can be disorganised and relationships clouded by unrealistic
desires. Men with this position have strong feminine natures
MERCURY
Mercury in the various signs reveals the different ways in which
people's minds work, their intellectual interests and aptitudes,
and how they communicate.
MERCURY IN AQUARIUS
Independent minded, these people do not like being told what to think. They need the freedom to find their own intellectual interests and they frequently hold radical views. They like issues to be clear cut.
MERCURY IN VIRGO (Dignity and Exaltation).
Pedantic, critical and analytical, these people have no time for frivolous ideas. The less interesting face of this position is to be found in the bureaucrat, the lover of intellectual order; the more interesting in those who use their minds for the practical good of the world.
VENUS
The position of Venus in the signs provides clues concerning the
individual's female nature, relationships, marriage and
attitudes to pleasure and the arts.
VENUS
VENUS IN AQUARIUS
Common sense is brought to bear on relationships, and personal feelings are pushed to one side. These people value tradition and seek status and security from emotional partnerships.
VENUS IN VIRGO
These people are often shy socially. They make few close friends because most people do not match up to their high standards. Their criticism of other people can be unjustified and result from their own lack of self-confidence. They should learn to trust their own feelings.
MARS
Mars in the signs shows the individual's general energy level,
the way practical problems are handled, attitudes to men and
expression of the male psyche.
MARS IN SAGITTARIUS
It can take a lifetime for these people to achieve their far-flung ambitions. They set their sights on distant heights and leave others to sort out the details. They often become travellers.
MARS IN VIRGO
This is an excellent combination for those involved in crafts or any precise practical activity. They have a flair for detail, thrive on routine, but lack imagination.
JUPITER
Jupiter in each sign gives clues about the way people try to
expand and grow. It takes an average of one year to pass through
any one sign of the zodiac. Everybody born in a given 12-month
period will have Jupiter in the same sign, and it gives false
emphasis in a birth chart if too much importance is given to the
sign containing Jupiter. Psychologically this planet should be
seen as a general background influence, contributing to other
tendencies in the chart.
JUPITER IN THE WATER SIGNS - CANCER< SCORPIO & PISCES
Jupiter in the water signs craves emotion. These people need love. While they aspire to the heights of romantic ecstasy, they can also be self-sacrificing and can wallow in self-pity and emotion. In Cancer (Exaltation)
Jupiter emphasises the virtues of helping other people through compassion, in Scorpio through healing and in Pisces (Dignity) through prayer and good intentions. Jupiter in Cancer may, on the other hand, lead to indulgence in domestic luxury, in Scorpio it may lead to licence in sex and other Scorpionic mysteries, and in Pisces there may be indulgence in escapist fantasies, dreams, religion or drugs.
JUPITER IN THE EARTH SIGNS - TAURUS, VIRGO & CAPRICORN
These people strive for self-development through practical work in order to achieve material results. In Virgo (Detriment) the purpose is likely to
be idealistic but within an orderly structure; in Capricorn (Fall) material wealth may be a priority. Jupiter in Taurus may indicate a love of luxury and sensual experience.
SATURN
Saturn rules the principle of limitation. It shows the way in
which people control themselves and are inhibited by their
environment.
Saturn takes about 29 years to travel around the zodiac, spending almost two and a half years in each sign. Its generational influence is even more pronounced than Jupiter's, and its meaning by sign has a far more general psychological influence in a horoscope than by house and aspect.
SATURN IN THE WATER SIGNS - CANCER, SCORPIO, PISCES.
Emotional inhibition is likely to result from Saturn placed in the water signs. There will certainly be an emphasis on emotional self-control. In Cancer (Detriment) this inclines towards a stable home, although the
difficulties this sign has in expressing its feelings will be strengthened. In Scorpio emotions may become more obsessive but more easily hurt, while Pisces may be more vulnerable than usual.
SATURN IN THE FIRE SIGNS - ARIES, LEO & SAGITTARIUS.
In the fire signs Saturn inhibits the overall energy level, restricts ambitions and reduces self-confidence. These people may constantly anticipate failure, avoid risks and reject opportunity, but the fear of failure can lead to concentrated hard work. Conservatism may influence creativity, artistic values and love affairs when Saturn is in Leo (Detriment); philosophy, beliefs and attitudes to foreign cultures when it is in Sagittarius; or attitudes to authority when it is in Aries (Fall).
URANUS (BOTH OF YOU HAVE THE SAME ONE)
URANS IN SCORPIO
Those born in the generation having Uranus in Scorpio have the ability to receive intuitively from the planetary mind new ways to substantially transform the society as it is presently operating, especially on a worldly and sexual level. Disruption occurs by holding on to outworn sexual standards and outmoded ideas about material partnerships.
Neptune in Sagittarius (BOTH OF YOU HAVE THE SAME ONE)
You are part of a 14 year group of people that are extremely idealistic and farsighted in their dreams. Your age group is very liberal and expansive in outlook, and consequently churches become much more flexible and more eclectic in their approach during your life time. Religions that do not adapt to the broad-minded attitude of your age group simply are unable to attract very much interest and involvement from you.
A great deal of metaphysical musing and speculation is evident in your age group, and there is a very strong interest in all manner of psychic phenomena, UFO's, prophecy, etc. This interest will open many new doors and insights, but will also often lead to a great deal of fantasizing and speculation that is taken more seriously than it should be.

) I was the one who was scared of losing the job, ruining my hard-earned reputation within the company, being taken advantage when I was on my own in a foreign country... That job was the only thing that allowed me to fulfill my dream of staying abroad... It was too important... I didnīt trust his power either or his experience... He was older than me, divorced and more powerful than me, playing in his own natural environment...
