Wasn't sure what about what you wanted, but here is a Natal:
Your Rising Sign
First let's take a quick look at your ascendant, or rising sign. Astrologers want to know what
zodiac sign is rising at birth, since this gives a picture of the way you appear or come across to
others.
You come across in a frank, candid, and scrupulously honest manner... honest of the point
of harshness. You are open minded, tolerant and love to travel in the mind (philosophy,
religion) and perhaps across the Earth as well.

Planet Aspects
The Lights: The Sun and Moon
At the time of our birth, the planets (through their configurations and relationships) tell us
something about how things were when we were born. Each planet points to special qualities
within us. Yet, of all the planets, the two most important planets to astrologers are the "lights,"
the Sun and the Moon. From where we stand here on Earth, the great shining Sun by day and
the reflecting Moon at night are our constant companions. They have much to tell us as to
where we have been and where we are headed.
The Sun: Your Self and Future
From the Sun comes light, that which draws us into life. The Sun represents all the changes
we have not yet taken, that part of us that we have not yet experienced but are headed toward.
The Sun represents our identity, or self, in that it is toward these that we are moving and
developing. Thus, it also represents that which we will become: older people, authorities --
those we look toward, or up to. Our essence, or future. Teachers, gurus, and older (more
experienced) people are represented by the Sun. The Sun is "hot stuff," those further up the road
of life experience.
You are always out-front, frank, and even rough at times -- getting to the heart of any
subject. On the move, you are a traveler of both the world and the mind -- philosophy and
religion. Outgoing, friendly, and well-liked, you may enjoy sports and physical activity. Not
petty, you like grand themes and big gestures.
Sun in Sagittarius
You have great internal strength and tend to be independent, preferring to lean on yourself
more than on those outside. The ability to work with those older and younger than yourself is a
real gift, and this talent makes you a natural mediator or go-between. You are self-motivating,
able to take care of yourself, and autonomous to a high degree. You work well with others.
Moon Conjunction Sun
You communicate with consummate skill, and it is stimulating just being with you. Your
high degree of mental concentration makes you an excellent student, able to excel in speaking,
writing, and all types of communication skills. Your ambitions go hand-in-hand with
Planet Aspects Page 4
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
communication and using the mind, and the two should never be far apart.
Sun Conjunction Mercury
A born doer, with an incredible drive to accomplish and achieve in life. Your ambitions are
backed up by the will to get things done. You can be very emotional, and others might find you
a bit too aggressive. You try hard and you always push on toward whatever goals you have in
mind. A conservative by nature, you tend to stand up for the status quo, and, if male, are
probably a "man's man."
Sun Conjunction Mars
You tend to be stubborn and unable to make solid career choices. You get carried away and
go off in directions contrary to your actual needs. Your judgment in vocational matters is often
off, sending you on a wild goose chase. In addition, there is possible difficulty with authorities
and the law and/or differences with older people. To use an old adage, you can (at times) be
your own worst enemy. The advice of a trusted friend regarding career is to be recommended.
Sun Square Jupiter
You are always out front and manage to spend a lot of time in the spotlight in social
situations. A born teacher, others find you easy to watch and learn from. You are very
animated, and it is easy for you to convey your ideas or get them across.
Sun Conjunction Ascendant
The Moon: The Support System
Here is information about the kind of environment we create around us, our support system.
It is not only the surroundings that we set up today, but the Moon also represents our past, the
particular history and social background out of which we grew. Aside from our social
background, the Moon governs all of the old habits that we have grown beyond. We tend to
look down on, or back on, our Moon. It represents those experiences out of which we have
come, all those younger souls who are unconscious, or "sub" conscious to our own level. This is
why it is said that the Moon is a mystery planet, for it is both our parent and our child: our
parent in that out of it we were born, our child in that we can't but respond to others who are
now living as we once did.
You are even happy in austere settings, and enjoy getting back to the basics. Religion, truth,
and the world of philosophy and ideas are of interest. Your love of simplicity is good for
politics too. It brings out the truth and a sense of honesty in a group. You are freedom-loving,
independent, and at times, even a trifle remote. You are not bound by relationships and are thus
not much of a domestic.
Moon in Sagittarius
A natural go-between or mediator between the generations, you always manage to see it two
ways, understanding both sides of any question. Intense and perhaps somewhat private, you
have a strong effect on those who come to know you. New ideas.
Moon Conjunction Sun
You always can say just what you mean. Almost always right-on when it comes to
Planet Aspects Page 5
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
questions of feelings, you take an active interest in psychology, different cultures, and history.
You can find support from all sides when it comes to any sort of mental activity -- writing,
speaking, and all forms of communication.
Moon Conjunction Mercury
The path or career that you take may go against tradition and thus sometimes be a lonely
one. Don't expect much support from those around you. There is also some danger you could
overextend, making decisions that go against your own better feelings and instincts. Career
choices could be at the expense of home and surroundings. Your approach to solving problems
may get you in hot water with others, resulting in frequent debates, if not out-and-out
arguments.
Moon Square Jupiter
You are never more at home than when entertaining and carrying on in front of a group.
You wear your heart on your sleeve, and your emotional life is an open book for all to read.
Others sense an interest in their welfare when they meet you.
Moon Conjunction Ascendant
The Inner Planets: Mercury and Venus
The planets Mercury and Venus have more to do with our internal and personal life than
with life outside us. These inner planets are located between the orbit of the Earth and the Sun.
We can look to qualities that are inside us. Venus indicates how we appreciate and measure our
experience, how we value life. Mercury tells us something about how our mind works, how we
think and communicate -- our intrinsic brightness.
Mercury: The Mind and Communication
Mercury is the light in our eyes, the ever-changing consciousness within us that moves from
idea to idea. Thus Mercury has always represented thoughts, ideas, and the mental process in
general. It governs not only ideas, but communications, too. Communications -- by phone,
letter, spoken, or however -- are ruled by Mercury. Also thoughts, connections, phone wires,
and everything that connects and conveys -- even conversations.
You are fair-minded and above-board, always direct and honest in thought. You are more
interested in eternal thoughts and broad landscapes than in minute details. You always manage
to get the picture right away. Farsighted, you have a wandering mind that loves to travel and are
at home with the bare bones of truth.
Mercury in Sagittarius
You are very bright, and you may be very proud of your mind and all that it can do. You
have a high degree of concentration that makes you an excellent student and able to excel in
speaking, writing, and all types of communication skills.
Sun Conjunction Mercury
Planet Aspects Page 6
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
You find it easy to put your feelings into words and are probably interested in psychology,
different cultures, and history. You are very clear-headed when it comes to emotional issues,
and may excel at writing, speaking, and communicating to groups.
Moon Conjunction Mercury
You don't spend a lot of time thinking out your problems, considering solutions, and the
like. Your thoughts are most often elsewhere, and tend to be impractical much of the time. You
can't seem to figure out the right course of action. This is most true when it comes to your
career or vocation. Not a good counselor yourself, you are well advised to seek the advice of
someone you trust when it comes to matters of your career.
Mercury Square Jupiter
Your bright wit and talkative streak make you always ready for a conversation. You love to
get your ideas across to others, and communication in any form is where you are happiest. You
always jump right in with your mind, expressing ideas, thoughts, and such.
Mercury Conjunction Ascendant
Venus: Values and Discrimination
Venus rules our values and sense of appreciation. When we appraise or appreciate
something, whether that be another person or a new car, this is Venus -- the sense of love and
compassion we may feel. By the same token, this planet rules enjoyment too. Whether it be
self-appreciation or just plain old decadent self-enjoyment by having a good time, this is Venus.
When we go shopping or are on a spending spree, it is Venus that allows us to appreciate and
value all the good things of life.
A passionate one, you are never lukewarm in love. It's hot or not. You are in love with
mystery, secrets, and intrigue, anything but that which is open or superficial. You have great
personal magnetism and a loyalty verging on possessiveness. You are never dull. You enjoy
money and influence too. Politics.
Venus in Scorpio
You have trouble accepting responsibilities. You don't like them. You would rather enjoy
yourself at the expense of any obligations, letting them accumulate as they will. This struggle
with authority and simple duty makes for great tension and diminished good times. It is hard to
have fun when you are ignoring your responsibilities. What we have here is a stalemate.
Venus Square Saturn
The External Planets: Mars, Jupiter, Saturn
The major planets outside the Earth's orbit (external to us) are Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
These are the planets of the outer world -- life as we find it outside ourselves. Mars tells us
something about the drive and energy we have, Jupiter shows us how to best channel that
energy, and Saturn decrees what sort of material or territory we will be passing through. Again:
Saturn tells us about the territory we will be going through, Jupiter the way or path through it,
and Mars what kind of push or drive we can count on to keep going.
Planet Aspects Page 7
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
Mars: Drive and Emotions
Mars is the planet of emotion and inner motivation or drive. When we search for the
meaning of something, life or whatever, it is Mars that urges us on, keeps us searching. Mars
also drives us against things, too and sends us into war and combat. The urgency of Mars, the
search for meaning, is identical to the need for union, yoga, and marriage. Mars is the planet of
union, and marriage is the most common form of yoga. When we have questions about the
opposite sex, we are looking at the planet Mars.
With direct drive, you always head straight to the heart of the matter. You are candid, even
blunt or brusque in manner. No bells or whistles needed, for you like simple living and could be
an outdoors person. You have an urge to be free, to be challenged and tested, and would rather
travel far than be stuck in routine.
Mars in Sagittarius
You are very motivated, with a strong drive and urge to do and accomplish. Others could
find you a bit pushy. With an eye to progress and the future, you feel compelled to try for what
is just out of your reach. You support authority in all forms.
Sun Conjunction Mars
The word here is accomplishment. If there is a job, you can do it. A prodigious worker, you
pour yourself into any task with absolute determination. You are responsible to the extreme and
take on obligations as though you just can't get enough. You enjoy discipline, and limitations
are seen as opportunities rather than as handicaps. You would make a good teacher of others in
matters of organization, practical competence, and the like. You have a great desire and drive to
be thorough and responsible down to the smallest details. You always know what is essential
and what is not. You love the routine.
Mars Sextile Saturn
You put forth a lot of effort, in particular regarding your career. Your drive and ambitions
work well with whatever management skills and practical ability you have, producing a
harmonious work environment.
Mars Sextile Midheaven
Jupiter: Career and Life Path
Jupiter is the planet of success and simple survival, the way we have to solve the problems
that confront us. Thus Jupiter has to do with the way in which we can be successful, our
vocation. The Hindu word for Jupiter is Guru. Jupiter is the guru and guide, the way we go
through life, our life path or vocation. Jupiter is the method each of us has for dealing with the
laws of life, our Saturn, or limitations. Jupiter is the light or path. Jupiter provides us with our
sense of direction, the path we are on, the way we handle life. It affects how we approach life's
problems. It has always been an indicator of how successful we may be, our vocation.
A service career is a perfect choice, for you want very much to be of use, to be used up.
You have a fantastic appetite for detail work, and can take it all in and still look for more.
Planet Aspects Page 8
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
Willing and able to respond to almost any emergency, you are responsible and always ready.
Jupiter in Virgo
You may tend to take paths at right angles to your real ambitions and self-interest. Trouble
with authorities or older people can result. Your struggle to succeed is aided when you show
self-control or discipline and find that middle road.
Sun Square Jupiter
You may have trouble finding support for what you do (your path or career). The way to
success for you seems to run counter to emotions and sentiment. You avoid activities having to
do with your past environment. Your business is non-domestic.
Moon Square Jupiter
Your ideas and plans are not always the most practical or expedient. Fond of grand
schemes, verbalization, and the like, these ideas don't often boil down to real solutions. Your
main path may involve taking many of your ideas with a grain of salt.
Mercury Square Jupiter
You are independent and value freedom and nonconformity. A great problem-solver, you
enjoy working out new solutions, trying new things. Your career will be anything but ordinary,
and leave it to you to find unusual ways of supporting yourself. You bring a lot of mental skill
and understanding to whatever you do, and could teach or help others to take a more
independent approach to their life or career. You pursue electronics, computers, and the like.
Jupiter Trine Uranus
You would do well in a career in music, poetry, psychology, philosophy -- the realms of the
imagination. You work well in these areas and can help or teach others by sharing your
understanding. You can serve as a guide to the nether worlds of the mind and psyche --
religions, mysticism, and so on. Spiritual problems and questions are easy, for you always grasp
the unity behind what appears separate.
Jupiter Trine Neptune
Your career may well be at the expense of relationships and a social life. Work, home, and
family are important to you. Others and the social scene don't concern you.
Jupiter Square Ascendant
Saturn: Responsibilities
The process of finding out who we are (self-discovery) starts when we come to grips with
whatever problems life presents to us and begin to get a handle on them. In other words, if we
have not dealt with Saturn, or time (that is, if we don't have some control of time), there is little
opportunity for other questions. Saturn rules the laws and limitations of this material world we
all live in. Saturn indicates where we are bound to learn, the narrowness that makes our way
felt, the walls that make homes possible. Saturn holds us together as much as apart. Saturn is
said to be the great teacher, the planet that keeps us from getting carried away in one direction
or another. Although it always seeks to limit and determine any thought, word, or action, it also
defines and clarifies. Saturn is called the prince of the material world.
Planet Aspects Page 9
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
You have an innate distrust of groups or large organizations and could tend to avoid what is
new or future-oriented. You are, perhaps, too conservative and need to develop a sense of
community and sharing with others. Learn to be independent. Practice impartiality and altruism.
Be innovative.
Saturn in Aquarius
You may have trouble enjoying yourself, appreciating the finer things of life. Your
no-nonsense, serious approach may tend to limit and cut off feelings of warmth and
compassion. The result could be a struggle between binges and responsibility.
Venus Square Saturn
Applied force. Practical competence. Tremendous discipline and a love of routine work.
Ability to simplify, code, and reduce a subject to its essential elements. Inner drive to be
thorough and responsible in minute details. Self-disciplined.
Mars Sextile Saturn
You enjoy working hard and being organized, and you exercise skill and discipline in
anything that affects your career and reputation. A perfect combination for an excellent
manager.
Saturn Trine Midheaven
The Outer Planets
In the previous sections, we have dealt with planets that we can see with our naked eyes. In
general, these planets refer to life as we know and live it and are the so-called historical or
classic planets. Beyond these are three planets that are not visible in the sky and which have
cycles longer than the average human life span. Since they are beyond Saturn or time,
astrologers call them the trans-personal or transcendental planets -- the planets beyond the
physical. One of the ways astrologers learn something about our life beyond time (eternal life)
is through these three outer planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Here we find information on
how we discover ourselves (Uranus), how we understand and accept these discoveries
(Neptune), and, in time, how we depend and identify with them (Pluto).
Uranus: Break-Thrus & Insights
Our responsibilities can tend to weigh us down, and we each have our particular ways of
getting around (or breaking through) the mass of obstructions that tends to congeal around us.
The planet that has to do with how we get beyond the difficulties and problems life presents us
is Uranus. Here is the way insights come to us, how we discover or come to know and
understand ourselves. It has to do with finding new uses for old things, and it rules inventions
and sudden insights into our life -- everything that is unusual, eccentric, and out of the ordinary.
It is the reverse of the status quo and is always unconventional and heretical. Uranus is, in many
ways, the opposite, or undoing of Saturn.
You are innovative in the political and business arena. You find new ways to manage and
Planet Aspects Page 10
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
control things and people. Ever practical, you come up with new or alternate forms of
management -- breakthroughs in top-level management and corporate styles. You bring new
life to conservative traditions. Your emotions are very staid.
Uranus in Capricorn
Unusual occupations. Hate the everyday and the rut. Instead, always finding ways to break
through or away from what hems you in. Value independence, personal freedom; insist upon
and exist on the wildfire at the fringe or very front edge of life.
Jupiter Trine Uranus
You have real vision and insight into the unity that ties this world together. Your brilliant
imagination and enchanting manner transport all who meet you beyond the mundane and into
the extraordinary regions where you spend a lot of your time. You are a seer, in the true sense
of the word, and possess a waking experience of that part of us that is mystical and dreamlike.
You find new ways to bring people together, to unify situations. Unusual music.
Uranus Conjunction Neptune
You have unusual relationships, perhaps a number of them, and not always of long duration.
You are creative when it comes to partnerships or lovers; you seem to establish unusual and
different relationships.
Uranus Square Midheaven
Neptune: Ideals & Imagination
Even the most hard-nosed of us have moments of real understanding, when things are seen
as linked together and one piece. We stop getting the idea in little flashes and just get the whole
thing. It dawns on us. We each have our own way of letting go, having communion, and (as the
poet wrote) letting "the dewdrop slip into the shining sea." These moments and this state of
mind are, in fact, the source for all our imagination. There are many ways of seeing through the
separateness in the world to the unity behind it.
The practical is the ideal. Form follows function. You have a dream of being in control --
the puppet master. You are very interested in tradition and tend to be dignified and
conservative. You believe in an orderly society led by benevolent monarchs -- those who can
see what to do.
Neptune in Capricorn
Prefer the forest to the trees, the common to the uncommon or special. At home in ideas of
man's essential unity. Religious and psychological ideas are natural. Will act as a minister to
others, like it or not. You can sense and see the unity of life.
Jupiter Trine Neptune
You could be a visionary, with unusual and direct insight into everything mystical, the
dreams and ideals we all have. You are at your most creative when you are using your
imagination, pursuing your dreams, creating images.
Uranus Conjunction Neptune
Planet Aspects Page 11

Pluto: Inner Change and Growth
Pluto is the planet of profound change, starting deep within us and moving toward the
surface. It often touches upon the most sensitive psychological areas inside us. Once touched,
we have no choice but to change and grow. The most sensitive of experiences, the times of
greatest vulnerability, are times of complete identification with an experience, a person, or a
thing. We know in these instants that we are looking at our self, what we are. The most personal
of experiences is one of complete identification with a person, moment, or idea. Perhaps this is
only possible for most of us when we look into our child's eyes, and then only infrequently.
Love is not the experience here, but total identification. This is very sensitive stuff. To touch
upon this material is to go through deep inner change and transformation -- inner alchemy.
Identification and experiencing that life is our own creation and that, in fact, you are I and I am
you. This experience breaks us down and humbles. When we touch upon this experience, we
cannot but die to what we have been thinking and doing up to now. It reduces us to our most
sensitive because -- in a flash -- we see or remember that it all is us, our life.
You tear through appearances in an effort to get beneath, behind, and at the heart or
essence. You may find psychology, initiation, and mysticism, and the occult of great interest.
Intense personal change and inner growth are lifelong habits.
Pluto in Scorpio
Challenges and Abilities
Focus
These are areas of life where we show intense focus and activity. For better or worse, these
qualities stand out and are obvious to all those who come to know us. They are very clear parts
of our character.
You always can say just what you mean. Almost always right-on when it comes to
questions of feelings, you take an active interest in psychology, different cultures, and history.
You can find support from all sides when it comes to any sort of mental activity -- writing,
speaking, and all forms of communication.

Challenges
Life can be challenging, and things are not always easy. The major challenges in a natal
chart are where we can expect increased activity and personal involvement -- ready or not.
These critical areas of life can be difficult, and the resulting confusion and possible obscuration
often makes it hard for us to see and act with normal clarity. Therefore, when it comes to the
following factors you may wish to exercise caution and extra patience.
Challenges and Abilities Page 13

Landscape: Major Life Periods
What follows amounts to a brief overview of the first thirty years or so of your life -- a road
map of the years to come. Since childhood, adolescence, and early adult life are so crucial to
each of us, an attempt has been made to describe these formative years. Based on the gradual
movement of the planet Saturn, this is one of the most tested of all astrological techniques. It is
used by almost every professional astrologer as part of any personal consultation. Provided that
your time of birth is more or less accurate, you will find this information both accurate and
informative. Here is a general life overview, followed by a close-up on your current changes --
what is happening right now. First the overview:
Landscape: Major Life Periods Page 15

Your Personal Background
A very active and outgoing youngster, you show an interest in the outside world and social
life very early, say around 11-12 years of age. You may at this time move very rapidly into the
limelight and find yourself a leader and quite successful in all social activities. Things will just
work out for you. This trend will continue and reach a peak when you are about 18-19 years of
age, after which time you will lose interest in the social and external and turn more inward. This
could result in your being somewhat of a prodigy and achieving a very early career success,
only to find yourself less and less involved in it. You may even turn away from everything and
choose to start over again to find a new vocation. You may discover yourself spending many
years pursuing a more inward and subjective path that could last until you are 30 years of age
(or more) at which time you will turn outward once again and take a new direction.
Your Current Situation
Now for a close-up of recent years: while landscape was quite general, the dates given in
this close-up should be much more precise. Life is composed of sections of time, each devoted
to one kind of activity or another. We go along for a while in one direction until something
changes within (or outside) us and we head off in a new course. Some of our earlier activities
dry up and new ones spring up in their place. What follows is an analysis of the time period in
which you find yourself now. Don't look here for a day-to-day account of life but rather to get a
picture of this stretch of time, "these years."
Sep 17, 2010 3rd Pass D> (Age 18 9m)
You are riding a high now in terms of taking advantage of the cycles in your life. This may
well be a high-water mark; however, this is also the beginning of a series of years during which
you should begin to consolidate and tie down the advances you have made in recent years. It
may be best to begin to dig in and strengthen your current position rather than expand outward
too much. You will find your mind beginning to turn away from the external (the material) and
to be concerned with more inward and spiritual ideas. All of this will become clear over the
next several years. This time marks a change of direction for you, away from the material and
glitter, toward inner needs and security. You will find yourself more concerned with
maintaining and strengthening your position, rather than pushing outward. In summary, a kind
of high-water mark in the outward and social department. These years should be easy and filled
with opportunities and friendships. Enjoy them. More demanding and inward years will be
forthcoming a little further on down the road.

The Elements, Modalities and Angularity
Elements, modalities, and house quadrants. These are all techniques used by astrologers to
gain a general picture of how a person measures up. How do your planets and houses total up?
Which do you have in abundance, and which do you lack, if any? Those with high totals show
what we can or must do in life. These are qualities we have. However, most people are more
interested by what they lack or want -- their lowest totals. They tend to study their "wants,"
imitate, and even pretend to have them. The old adage is: we become what we want (or lack),
while we do what we can (or have to do). Here are your totals:
Your positivism lets you get right to the point, and you have little patience with those who
shilly-shally. You've plenty of enthusiasm and warm up to things and people quickly. You have
an inner self-confidence which burns with its own light.
Have Fire
You could have difficulty getting your ideas across to others, sometimes feeling inadequate
in matters that require logic or the use of your mental powers. You may have doubts about
those who talk too much and seem "long" on ideas.
Want Air
Very communicative, flexible, mental, and other-oriented. Perhaps you can be all things to
all people, giving them what they require. Probably a smooth talker with a quick wit and ready
tongue.
Have Mutable
Not a great starter, you may have trouble initiating things and getting them moving. You
may need help from friends or others in learning how to be more aggressive and outgoing.
Want Cardinal
Circumstances can throw you into positions where you must use your mind and deal with
communications, service, or enclosed hidden interests. You may deal with education,
psychology, spiritual enlightenment or teaching principles and techniques.
Have Cadent
You are inclined to do things from outer necessity rather than for emotional or idealistic
reasons. Your theories and mental activities may be fine, but you may lack heart or the
fixedness (or the necessary time) to let things ripen.
Want Succedent

Your Burn Rate
We all change, but the question is: At what rate? Some of us tear through change after
change, one phase following another, year after year, while others move at a more serene pace.
Or, one area of our lives may be hectic and forever changing, while other areas are quite
tranquil. Why do some people seem to live lifetimes within lifetimes? Here is an analysis of
your particular rate of change or "burn rate," including the particular areas of your life (planets)
where you can expect continued change and growth. Areas where there is a very low index of
change (indicating clear and easy use of the qualities involved) will also be pointed out. If you
have sometimes wondered about the areas of your life where the candles burn at both ends, here
are the details.
You have an average amount of change present in life, neither too much nor very little.
Specific planets, either high or low, will be presented after this (if any exist).
A majority of planets in the PAST suggests that you are comfortable with established
values. You know and understand more than you let on, and life changes seldom take you by
surprise. You have a great deal of control over your actions.
Planets in High Focus
Your drive and emotions are very pure and clear. They will tend to be tranquil and not
subject to continual adjustment and change. This is a special gift -- clear-seeing in emotional
matters.
Mars
Questions of attitude, approaches to problem-solving, and the methods for handling
authorities and the law are in high focus and are indicated by a high burn rate regarding your
career and making your way through life. Perhaps you will have many jobs or be forever going
through changes and adjustments that affect your career. It could be difficult finding lasting
success or prosperity, and the path to it may be areas where you have real experience and
particular expertise.

Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self
Here we are examining your basic attitude or approach to life, what is called by some the
archetype or soul-type. If you know something about your particular soul-type, this can provide
valuable information as to the general direction and purpose of your life. In particular, it is
important to note the difference, if any, between our outer personality (the way we appear to
others) and our real inner self; how are we, in fact, as people get to know us? Not all people are
as they seem.
Appearances can be deceiving, and here is a case in point. Your appearance (the way you
come on) and personality suggest that you may be inward, quiet, and concerned about what
other people think. This, in truth, is not the case. Although gentle-mannered, conservative, and
sensitive on the outside, you are tough as nails on the inside -- as anyone can testify who gets to
know you very well. The fact is that you like attention and have a real need to be at the center
of any group. Your more sensitive style hides a strong, aggressive, and quite confident nature.
You are at home in a crowd and enjoy the attentions of others. You expect them to come to you.
Your mild mannered smoke-screen hides a real tiger. Appearances aside, let's take a look at the
real or inner you.
Geo: Trine Helio: Square
Your Soul Type
You are independent, confident, and more than likely more than a little self-centered. You
love attention and somehow manage to gravitate to the center of almost any group or
happening. Others accept you, for they sense you are a leader and admire your almost regal
manner. Yet they may have to keep their distance, for as much as you love attention and the
crowd, you are also fiercely protective of your independence, sense of freedom, and -- above all
-- your privacy. There is a kind of contradiction here. When in the mood, you love to express
yourself, entertain and perform for others, and enjoy being surrounded by an audience. You are
very magnetic and dynamic. Others love to be with you. There is something about you that
others can't seem to get enough of; yet for all your confidence, you tend to depend on others for
advice and counsel. Your grasp of the moment is unquestioned. You're it, or at least always in
the midst of it. Yet you find yourself needing the advice of someone who is not as involved,
someone to give you directions from time to time. In a sense, you are all dressed up but are not
sure where to go or where you are headed. And because of this, you depend on those around
you for direction and guidance during the times when you lose sight of the bigger picture.
You are a very feeling person and can sense the drift of a situation without a lot of analysis.
This immediate "hands-on" approach might be contrasted with one that is more deliberate and
cerebral. You could be left with a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to matters of
Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 19

education, philosophy, and conceptual ability. In a word, you revere this kind of stuff, not
because it is natural to you but rather because it does not come easy for you. You have to work
for it. There may be a tendency on your part to puff up your intellectual powers.
It is said that there are just two kinds of people in the world, those who are born to love and
those who are born to be loved. You are the second type, one who is born to be loved and cared
for by others. Don't feel bad about attracting attention in a group. People love to be with you
and find you very easy to love. Everyone wants a piece of you, and this can result in your
needing more space, a chance to be alone. Your type is not famous for being attentive to the
needs of others or being very demonstrative in a love relationship. You are the immovable
object that others find irresistible and sometimes selfish. You love to express yourself and are a
born entertainer. You are very stubborn and have great stamina. You may tend to fear that
others find you a little dense or too sense-oriented. You radiate energy and information and
have to just accept the fact that people like to feel your warmth. Let them take care of you. You
sit on the throne.

The Key to your Inner Life
Each person has one or more key qualities. Here we are not referring to our appearance or
personality, but rather to our inner nature, how we are when someone really gets to know us.
The light in your eyes says it all: your mind and ideas are central to your inner and
philosophical life. Communications on an inner and spiritual level are not just important for
you, they are indispensable. Mentality is the focus and conduit through which all the other parts
of you function and relate.
Mercury
In a word, it is your emotions and gusto that hold your innermost self together. Your
feelings are not just important, they are central to getting to really know you. A strong
devotional nature becomes apparent to anyone who takes time to know the real you. All else
follows upon this inner drive and energy. The search for a mate, and marriage in particular, are
crucial for you. You are driven to unite and find out what togetherness means.
Mars
The Key to your Personality
You are driven and passionate in your pursuit of change and inner growth. You possess, at
the core, an intensity that burns through superficialities, searching for opportunities to face the
truth and render the evident to view. This ceaseless analytical activity, while central to your
nature, may be the source of discomfort to others.
Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 20
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
The Personal Hot Spot
Your career, sense of judgment, and problem-solving ability are at the top of the list as the
key components to look out for whenever you are stroked or stressed.
Jupiter
Your inner self and your goals are the most active facets of your personality. They receive
more stress and attention than other areas of your life.
Sun
Interface: Innermost qualities
This feature is based on an intricate analysis of the position of a particular planet in relation
to the orbital planes of the other planets. The resulting series of crossings, or nodes, tells us
something about the nature of our innermost inclinations (Inc) and disinclinations (Dis). These
indicators are not to be considered at the level of our personality, but rather are deep-seated
parts of our innermost character -- our internal biases. These pros and cons are not apt to change
in the course of our lifetime.
Your value system has little room for the mystical, much less whatever the psychics are
talking about. When these things crop up, you cut them off early on. Your position is simple:
dreams, images, spiritual thoughts, and what-not are just not your cup of tea. You don't care for
them. And yet, this whole subject fascinates you. There is a siren-like quality to all of this,
calling and luring you. Sooner or later, this must be worked through.
Venus Dis Neptune
You don't like making career decisions, and you can get downright confused when it comes
to making the right choice. You may not appreciate advice, and this makes the problem
somewhat more complex. It could be important for you to get the counsel of a trusted friend,
someone who can advise you as to the right choices. Whether you happen to like them or not,
once you have determined the right route, you should take it.
Jupiter Dis Venus
You find it difficult to be spontaneous, to get away from routine and do something different.
Others see in you a creature of routine. Travel may also be hard for you. It is not easy for you to
change or to accept changes. When you do enact a change, it is always at the deepest or core
level and affects everything else in your life. Once a change is made, it at once becomes a part
of you, solid and immovable. Those near you may feel that you inhibit the proverbial "life of
the party." Code, computer programming, and the like should interest you.
Saturn Inc Uranus
Interface: Innermost qualities Page 21
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
Your are very "bearish" when it comes to security and seldom make a move that does not
strengthen your position. You pursue responsibilities the way others pursue pleasure, and you
even invite obligations. Career moves are always solid, based on sound principles, and may be
tied in with the law or authorities -- all that is solid and well-reasoned. You don't invest in
anything that is not tried and tested. Truth, religion, and philosophy are subjects of great interest.
Saturn Inc Jupiter
Your interest in religion, spiritual matters, and things that stretch beyond the course of a
single human lifetime is quite unique. Others may not be able to share your vision into the
spiritual and psychological, seeing you as something of a weirdo. To get to know you is to
catch a glimpse, however brief, into some of the eternal thoughts and realms. You are very
devotional when it comes to anything connected to spiritual and inner growth, and the process
of personal introspection and analysis is also sacrosanct.
Neptune Inc Pluto
Getting personal with you is a real mistake, for it always manages to plunge you into
turmoil. You resent probing on the part of others, yet are fascinated by behind-the-scenes and
so-called "secret" information. You may prefer not to think about anything below the surface,
but even this is not a constant, and this inner conflict produces more than its share of tension.

Major Transits Happening Now
Astrologers use the term "transits" to mean the positions of the major planets that are
overhead (in the sky) right now and their relationship to our birth chart. Transits are very
important indicators of the current situation in which we find ourselves. They can provide
insight into what we are now going through. Here are the dates when the next major transits for
the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are exact in your chart. Some dates will
have already passed and some are still to come. Remember, with these large planets transits
don't just happen on the day when they are exact. They cover a wide span of days, weeks,
months, and sometimes years, depending on which planet is involved.
In general, transits of Jupiter take from several days to a week or two to complete, while
those of Saturn take from two weeks to a month to play themselves out. With the outer planets,
the period of activity is even longer: transits of Uranus take about two months, Neptune three or
four months, and Pluto takes about a year. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto move so slowly that the
complete transit experience may take a year or two to complete itself. So be prepared to work
with these situations.

House Activity and Emphasis
The twelve houses of the horoscope, particularly when they are occupied by a planet,
provide a clue to areas of special activity and use. Here is an analysis of house activity based on
planet emphasis:
House Activity and Emphasis Page 24
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
First House: Appearance, Approach
The first house has to do with how we appear or the way we come across, thus our
appearance and personality. This is the essential stuff that bubbles up in us spontaneously and
that is obvious to others as our trademark or activity. It is what makes us each so personally
different. This house rules our personal self and everything about us that draws a reaction from
our surroundings or others.
First House
Sagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid, and to the point. Sometimes harsh, this energy
always is concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand. Associated with philosophy,
religion, and all things that last, Sagittarius energy is always welcome in politics as well as
social and community endeavors, where its basic fairness and evenhandedness is helpful.
Sagittarius
A tendency to be eccentric and unconventional in appearance and mannerisms. Perhaps
your approach to life -- the way you come on -- is unusual or different. You may be
spontaneous, witty, and unpredictable.
Uranus in First House
You are a real charmer -- able to enchant others and bring them under your spell. You
manage to communicate an almost mystical sense to a group. Your ideals and ability to see the
whole picture are obvious to all who come to know you.
Neptune in First House
Second House: Possessions, Reactions
The second house is concerned with how we respond to or field whatever impulses or
unique and personal qualities we manifest via our first house. This is how we hold or "have"
things (possessions, material goods, money, and the like). The second house always refers to
how we secure ourselves, the kind of response we get from life and those around us.
Second House
Capricorn is the business energy of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of the emotional
Cancer. Given to clear-headedness and practical insight and vision, this sign always takes a
distanced perspective, a cool appraisal. Logical and painstaking, Capricorns love hard work and
earned results. Money and things in general are very important.
Capricorn
You could be frugal when it comes to possessions, always limiting your purchases to what
is essential and has value. This same theme carries through in your response to people. You
don't tend to lavish affection or sentiment. You keep it short and simple.
Saturn in Second House
House Activity and Emphasis Page 25
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
Third House: Inquiries, Communications
The third house is concerned with explorations, investigations, and inquiry and research of
all kinds. It also rules connections, communications, wires, tubes -- anything that we can get
through with our body, mind, voice, letters, what-have-you. It is here that we explore and
search for the limits of our life, whatever we are working with at the moment. A very mental
house, concerned with finding, furthering, peering, and all manner of questioning. Traditionally
rules short journeys, siblings.
Third House
Pisces energy runs deep and toward the psychological -- whatever is beneath the surface.
This sign is understanding, patient, and long-suffering. Pisces tend to absorb all the little barbs
and digs coming from outside. They always have their mind on an inner goal, something more
important. They are very forgiving and accepting -- giving of themselves for the sake of more
important issues.
Pisces
Fourth House: Home, Family, Security
The fourth house is where we send down roots, find our limits, and generally secure
ourselves. It is the end of any searching we might have done in the third house. Here we find or
end our search, settle down, and manage to get in possession of the whole situation. This is our
home and the base from which we can work, feel, and experience. This is the root of our
experience, the core or thick of it.
Fourth House
Aries is the sign of the pioneer and leader. It is always impulsive, concentrated, and
spontaneous. Act first and think about what you have done later. Rushing in where others fear
to tread, the Aries energy is attention-getting. It always provokes a response from the
surroundings, from others. There is something essential and instigative that starts or causes
something else to happen -- a reaction or response.
Aries
Fifth House: Expression, Creativity
The fifth house has to do with awareness, emotion (to move out), and expression (to press
out). Here there is always a growing sense of self-confidence and even a pride of ownership,
since we begin to recognize and own our experience. We know that we have had or are having
an experience. All forms of expression and offspring are connected to this house -- children,
animals, creative expression, and so on. A sense of direction and ownership takes hold at this
point in our experience.
Fifth House
Taurus manages to respond, possess, and "have" just about everything possible. This is a
nurturing and fertile sign in that any seed or impulse is cradled, bringing forth growth and
development. Taurus is the way we "have" things, how we possess and acquire things. There is
House Activity and Emphasis Page 26
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
something gentle, regular, steadfast, and determined about Taurus. Always accepting,
mothering, providing a base for... a matrix or womb where growth takes place.
Taurus
Sixth House: Responsibility, Work, Health
The sixth house has to do with salvaging and preserving what is good and healthy in our
experience. Here we separate the wheat from the chaff. We begin to care for ourselves and our
experience and thus health, nutrition. The idea here is that we are able to analyze our experience
and have thoughts about what is pure and what is not. The sixth house is an attempt to save the
heart of an experience, one that already by that attempt is beginning to pass or not cohere.
Sixth House
Taurus manages to respond, possess, and "have" just about everything possible. This is a
nurturing and fertile sign in that any seed or impulse is cradled, bringing forth growth and
development. Taurus is the way we "have" things, how we possess and acquire things. There is
something gentle, regular, steadfast, and determined about Taurus. Always accepting,
mothering, providing a base for... a matrix or womb where growth takes place.
Taurus
Seventh House: Relationships, Other People
The seventh house is the house of partnerships, relationships, social life, and all that carries
us beyond our personal self into an awareness of other people, community, and the like. This
includes spiritual awakening and the discovery that we are more than just our personality. Here
we begin to respond to our personal needs (and those of others) for the first time. We can see
what is going on and are committed to it; thus, marriage and yoga, or union, is indicated in this
house.
Seventh House
Gemini is concerned with connections and communication of all kinds -- letters, wires,
telephones, voice, thoughts, writing, and mental processes in general. Gemini is the gadfly, the
communicator, the gossip of the zodiac. Searching conversations, scientific inquiry, research,
and so on belong here. Gemini energy is unattached, independent, and inquisitive.
Gemini
Eighth House: Business Savvy, Elimination
The eighth house, traditionally the house of death, is concerned with getting rid of excess
parts of ourselves that we see we no longer need. Thus this house also covers initiation and any
activities where we are transforming toward a more integral position, getting to the heart of
things. The no-nonsense quality of the eighth house makes it good for business ventures since
here we are stripping away the dross to reveal the truth or essence of the subject.
Eighth House
Cancer is the mother of the zodiac, always making a home, protecting and providing for
others. A sensitive sign where feelings and real experience count more than cold logic. It
House Activity and Emphasis Page 27
Astro*Talk BirdLee Knowflake
doesn't get any more physical and emotional than here. This sign has a sense of substance, a
home base or foundation. Cancer energy is always limiting, bringing us down to Earth,
grounding our every thought in experience, in substance.
Cancer
Ninth House: Religions, Philosophy, Ideas
The ninth house covers long journeys and religion (the longest journey of all). Here is what
remains of the purification that takes place in the eighth house -- the seed, or essence, of an
entire cycle of experience. Religion comes from a Latin word that means to bind back, and thus
refers to all things that last or endure, such as the truth. Essential ideas, philosophy, and all that
is the very heart of things belong here.
Ninth House
Virgo energy is analytical and precise, always separating what is worthwhile and worth
supporting from that which is outmoded and of no further use. A mental sign, where thinking
and examining are in high focus. Also, a different kind of mother, here an endless caring and
worrying (fussing) about just about everything. Always compassionate and responsive, Virgo
energy is service-oriented above all, often thinking and caring more about what others are doing
and thinking than for self.
Virgo
Your devotion and search for truth may carry you across the globe and certainly to the far
reaches of philosophy and religious thoughts. Your career may hinge on your need to always
get at the seed, essence, or heart of every question.
Jupiter in Ninth House
Tenth House: Practical Vision, Vocation
The 10th house is a house of practical vision and clairvoyance, for here we can see clearly
what is. Reputation and career are often connected to this house, since the areas where we can
see with greatest clarity are those we most often can put to use to make a living. In summary,
this house is where we have real vision and can see to do and work. Planets transiting this house
may provide moments of insight and clear-seeing as well.
Tenth House
Libra energy is always facilitating and responsive, assuming the appropriate reaction or
response to any question or statement. What is sometimes seen as two-faced is only Libra's
facility at responding to each in kind. This is certainly the social sign, par excellence.
Impersonal and impartial, this sign doles out only what is demanded, never overdoing things.
Libra
You love large-scale organization, and career or business will always be close to your heart.
Your sense of discrimination when it comes to practical issues is excellent, and you value
clear-headedness in others. You like to work.
Venus in Tenth House
House Activity and Emphasis Page 28

Eleventh House: Dreams & Visions, Community
The 11th house has to do with putting our visions and dreams to work. We have been on the
mountain and had a vision (10th house). Here we take our vows never to forget what we have
seen and to work hard to make these dreams into reality. Thus this house has always been
connected with altruistic and humanitarian goals and trying to set them in motion. It is the
house of friends and community, because when we are powered by a real insight or vision we
share with all -- irrespective of differences.
Eleventh House
Scorpio is the most famous sign. Intense, passionate, and very personal, Scorpio rushes past
superficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but a fanatic foe, this sign
does well in politics and all areas where someone who dares is rewarded. Often associated with
sexual energy, perhaps due to its tendency to strip away veneer, laying bare anything that is
there.
Scorpio
Your burning zeal for the ideal world and your need to be part of a group of like-minded
souls are major factors in your makeup. You learn and grow through your efforts to help others
and to make your inner vision into a reality.
Pluto in Eleventh House
Twelfth House: Sacrifice, Psychology, Acceptance
The 12th house is about all that we go through in order to make our dreams into reality and
manifest them in the world around us. It covers what we are willing to put up with, the
sacrifices we will make in order to bring across what is really important. This is connected to
prisons, institutions, betrayal, self-undoing, and the like, because it is here that we must choose
to take some possible abuse for the sake of the message we are carrying, or blow it all away
with a negative reaction.
Twelfth House
Scorpio is the most famous sign. Intense, passionate, and very personal, Scorpio rushes past
superficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but a fanatic foe, this sign
does well in politics and all areas where someone who dares is rewarded. Often associated with
sexual energy, perhaps due to its tendency to strip away veneer, laying bare anything that is
there.
Scorpio
You naturally are a giving person, sacrificing your own interests for the sake of an inner
vision -- what you feel is right. A born psychologist, you may find yourself counseling and
caring for the mental needs of others.
Sun in Twelfth House
Psychology -- in particular group work -- is one area that you can always look to for support
and encouragement. You may find yourself counseling or ministering to others, helping them to
understand and accept their lives.

Your mind is naturally interested in all that is psychological and beneath the surface of
things. Ideas of self-sacrifice and compassion -- how to serve and help others -- are what you
tend to think about.
Mercury in Twelfth House
You have a high degree of motivation when it comes to giving and to personal sacrifice.
You feel understanding and accepting and are easily moved by the problems of others.
Psychology in all of its forms is a driving force in your life.
