Natal Report for Layla Knowflake Layla KnowflakeMoon Moon in Leo You are gregarious, even to the point of bringing out the performer in others. You somehow always manage to find a creative environment or the creative in any environment. You are great with kids and big on animals, sports, and the outdoors. You are an instant umbrella of warmth, friendship, and self-expression. Moon in 10th House You have a natural insight and understanding as to what the public wants. Your career gets all kinds of support from other people, and you feel at home making practical and management decisions. You look to your work for strength and encouragement. Moon Conjunction Venus You like other people, and they can tell. Others value you for your sense of discrimination and kindness. You love working with groups, especially in psychological areas and where feelings are involved. You are very discriminating when it comes to your home and surroundings -- a great lover of tradition. Your love of history, different cultures, and your own past is exceptional. You value and are a connoisseur of all things bright and kind. Moon Sextile Mars A born coach or teacher, you are at home in the physical and "doing" areas of life. An inspiration and driving force in the lives of others. Quite able to manage a very active and strong emotional life. Strong spirit. Attractive. Direct, perhaps loud. Moon Conjunction Jupiter The public loves you, and it may be hard for you to avoid working with and for others. The way for you involves working with people. Everyone sees you as genuine and giving and tends to trust you on sight. Your ability to counsel others is excellent, and you are always sought out for advice. A born leader, others find it easy to take instructions from you and tend to follow your example. You enjoy helping others solve their problems. Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 2 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Moon Square Pluto You keep your feelings and emotions to yourself and resent any attempt to analyze or probe them. Your home and surroundings are tidy and air-tight, as well. However, you don't mind probing and dissecting the lives of others. This can't help but produce a strain in your relations with others, and you probably get very little support for your detective work. These two parts of you which seldom meet cause constant tension, resulting in periodic explosions. Sun Sun in Libra Your keyword is responsibility -- the ability to respond. You are able to find yourself in others, in relationships, rather than alone -- a mirror or clear pool. You can be peaceful, calm, and undisturbed. A genius at bringing out others getting them to do things, you are a born strategist. Sun in 12th House 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 Conjunction Mercury 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 communication and using the mind, and the two should never be far apart. Sun Square Uranus It may be difficult for you to break with convention and head out on your own. Your ambitions may well prosper, but often at the expense of any real independence and freedom. There is a switch effect: you may alternate between very conventional behavior and sudden rebellious lapses. At these times your nonconformity and refusal to go along works against your own best interests, making it difficult to get ahead. Sun Square Neptune You find yourself fighting to realize your ambitions amidst a sea of fuzzy dreams. A fear of letting go (and trusting the more mystical side of yourself) keeps you hard at it. You can't seem to let yourself dream a little, don't trust your own Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 3 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 idealizations, and struggle between your sense of ideals and your more realistic ambitions. Your practical concerns with getting ahead and fulfilling your ambitions tend to ignore your more deep-rooted ideals and dreams. You may not trust those in authority. Mercury Mercury in Libra Yours is a reflective mind, a mirror for others. You are equality-minded and easy to talk with -- a great mediator or negotiator. You find it easy to accept the ideas and thoughts of others and to hear them out. You are good at relations (politics, diplomacy, sales), not to mention considerate, helpful, and courteous. Calm. Mercury in 12th House 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 Square Uranus You may have trouble with any ideas that are new and different. Your more conservative way of thinking and expressing yourself goes against all that is radical and new. Thoughts and concepts that break with tradition may be a hassle for you -- a constant headache. You prefer that conversations and communications stay on the accepted paths and become irritated when they stray from what you expect. You have a tendency to lose your temper with little warning. Mercury Square Neptune You find talk of the other world, and mysticism in general, to be a real hassle. You struggle to keep this and any spiritual material at bay and, like your mind, down-to-earth and quite conventional. It may be hard for you to think about spiritual matters, much less express them in words or thoughts. You like your dreams neat and are troubled when thoughts of other lives and what-not intrude. You would rather not talk about it. Venus Venus in Leo Big heart, big love, you are seldom petty. Given to grand gestures and dramatic scenes, you love independence and greatness in all forms and are very regal. You can be generous to a fault. Children and animals are high on your list of Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 4 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 priorities. Fervently loyal, you are courageous and demonstrative. Venus in 11th House You love community projects and group work of any kind. Your sense of values finds you on the side of altruism and humanism at every turn. You appreciate goals and efforts at the global level. Venus Conjunction Jupiter You value fairness in all things and go out of your way to be just. You appreciate others who have been successful and may surround yourself with those in power, be they politicians, officials, what-have-you. Your sense of quality and discrimination may amount to some sort of livelihood for you. You could make your living with your good taste. In addition, you have an innate sense of how to work with and guide others in making decisions. You understand the choices and can spot the right ones. Mars Mars in Libra You have an inner urge to be all things to all people and would rather bend than argue or make an issue. You are a natural diplomat, always courteous and concerned with the comfort and welfare of others. You stay in the background, but are able to manipulate and bring out cooperation in others every time. Mars in 1st House You have a strong drive to be seen and known -- to communicate yourself to others. Personal appearance (the way you present yourself) is also a motivating factor. Mars Square Neptune You hate a lack of clarity, especially when it comes to your feelings and emotions. This is a less than ideal world as far as you are concerned, and you are for making the best of it. Whatever dreams and ideals you may have had are somehow shut off from the day-to-day realities you face. You would rather ignore your dreams than be tortured by their remoteness. You are suspicious of pie-inthe- sky and have an abnormal fear of being deceived, in particular in matters of love and feelings. A sign of emotional tension. Jupiter Jupiter in Virgo Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 5 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 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. Willing and able to respond to almost any emergency, you are responsible and always ready. Jupiter in 11th House You could make a career out of group or community work, anything involving attempts to bring large-scale and humanitarian dreams and ideas to reality. Your ideals and inner vision keep what is best for everyone ever on your mind. Jupiter Trine Uranus You are independent and value freedom and nonconformity. A great problemsolver, 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. Saturn Saturn in Aquarius 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 4th House You have very simple needs regarding home and surroundings. Some might find you frugal. It may be difficult for you to send down roots, build a home-base, and feel secure. Feelings and emotions may be on the sparse side. Uranus Uranus in Capricorn You are innovative in the political and business arena. You find new ways to manage and 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 3rd House Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 6 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 You have real insight when it comes to anything connected to research, study, and the world of ideas. Your independent mental approach to problem-solving and communication finds you coming up with connections that are new and different. Uranus Conjunction Neptune 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. Neptune Neptune in Capricorn The practical is the ideal. Form follows function. You have a dream of being in control -- the puppetmaster. 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 3rd House Your mind tends to be very imaginative and not concerned with facts and figures. Instead, ideas and writing of a mystical or poetic nature appeal. Research into religious or very idealistic subjects is indicated. Neptune Sextile Pluto A searing vision that cuts through what passes for conventional religion. A vision of the endless process of life ever being born afresh. Great acceptance and faith in the natural process and next generation. Love of children and animals. Pluto Pluto in Scorpio 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 2nd House You could be a terrific business person, as you have an ability to get past the Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 7 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 surface of things and separate out that which has real worth. In the area of possessions or material goods you will go through a lot of changes and learn a lot. Node Node in Capricorn When you bear an air of authority, you also must bear its burden, because the air is thinner, and few go there. But if you know the way, you must lead the fray. In the secret places of your heart there is a hidden hearth that awaits you, available not by your command but by those who quietly know what you need. Node in 3rd House In order to fulfill the path you tend to choose, you have to know a lot and talk to a lot of people, and that may take some time. The weight comes from sheer brain drain, the reward comes as you see it all come together in one amazing whole. After you've met all the pieces, you will discover it's all of a piece. Midheaven Midheaven in Cancer You may not always play your cards close to your chest, but you likely have the rep of being more careful and savvy than you think you really are. You’re also known for taking care of your own, so play parent any time you want to. Ascendant Ascendant in Libra You are all things to all people, always responding in a way to please and flatter - - a social being. You are so diplomatic and polite that one wonders if you have a viewpoint of your own. You have a natural ability to reflect and mirror others. Vertex Vertex in Taurus People and events that most critically shape your life tend to do it gradually, often without your real knowledge of how important they are until you look back on it. Loyalty and fortitude where you most took it for granted turn out to be the keystone in the archway of your life's temple. Low profile, high impact. Vertex in 8th House Natal Report: Layla Knowflake Page 8 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 When you wander onto another's property, what you find there can change your life. Curiosity may not kill the cat, but it certainly can be an eye-opener, and when you tap into others' resources, especially historical ones, there you may find forks in your own road you were least expecting -- and don't fully recognize until you've made the choice.

Transit Report for Layla Knowflake Layla KnowflakeChart Transit Wednesday Feb 05, 2014 Moon Moon in 7th House Perhaps a very social time, during which you receive all kinds of support from those around you and from your whole environment. You may neglect personal concerns for group or social affairs. Relationships are nourished and in focus. Moon Trine Moon A great time to reflect and understand your own situation, just how you feel about yourself. Emotions in particular, or the feelings of those around you, may be very clear. A nice time. Moon Trine Venus You may be able to enjoy and value your own life situation today or feel especially kind towards a friend or loved one. Someone may compliment you on your tastes or belongings. Moon Opposition Mars Circumstances may seem to conspire to irritate you or cause you to become emotional. Someone could challenge you or find a way to anger you. It could be difficult to remain calm and within control. Moon Trine Jupiter A great time to be with others and to work together. You may be sought after as just the person for a particular job. Your management and directional abilities are in high focus. Moon Square Saturn You may feel left out or passed over just now. Your own requirements may appear to limit and separate you from where the rest of the gang is headed. A sense of isolation and loneliness is not unusual. This is of short duration. Moon Trine Uranus Everything conspires to value and bring out your more unique and unusual qualities. You may find that someone close to you understands and is supportive Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 2 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 of your eccentricities. You could come up with new solutions or inventions. Sun Sun in 4th House The end of a time of questioning and feeling your way. Now you can get a handle on it, secure your position, feel whatever limits there are, and move forward. You have a base to build upon. You have sent down roots. Sun Trine Sun An easy, calm day that should find everything running in a smooth manner. Ideas and interaction with authority figures or older people may be in the fore. Working with -- rather than against -- the flow should be easy to do. Sun Trine Mercury New ways to communicate or an easy manner will make conversations and interactions go well today. You may find yourself more talkative and facile than otherwise. A dialogue with an older person may take place. Sun Trine Mars A good day to get things done. Good eye-hand coordination and sustained effort make almost any task run well. You may feel like exercising or getting out and about. Emotions are very present but within control. Sun Square Pluto A very superficial day. It may not be possible for you to penetrate to anything remotely meaningful or moving. Perhaps a sense of the artificial, the repetitive, the senseless. You can't seem to get beneath the surface. Mercury Mercury in 5th House This could be a creative time for you, in particular regarding ideas, concepts, and expressing or communicating yourself. You can put your experience and feelings into words and may be at your most witty and dramatic. Mercury Opposition Moon You may find yourself reflecting on your own youth or some event in the past. Communication with those around you, especially younger people, may be difficult or combative. Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 3 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Mercury Opposition Venus You may have difficult thoughts or conversations with someone you love or care for, or your ideas may go against the values of someone who confronts you. Mercury Opposition Jupiter Your thoughts and ideas may not mesh with the plans and methods of someone you meet with today. You could find yourself saying things against the way they do things. Your ideas may run counter to some plan of action. Venus Venus in 3rd House You appreciate and value ideas, concepts, and everything mental during this time. Perhaps a love for communication and discussion peaks now. You can discriminate between different concepts. Venus Square Sun You may find some of your values at odds with your own best interests. You may not appreciate tradition or someone older or in authority. Venus Square Mercury You may not place much value on ideas and thoughts. Something that someone says or communicates to you may be unappreciated or taken the wrong way. Venus Square Mars You may not feel like being very emotional and might tend to ignore any emotional needs that you might have. Your sense of values may be in conflict with your feelings. Venus Conjunction Uranus Independence, as well as anything unusual or different, is valued. You may enjoy getting away from routine and doing something completely different for a change. Venus Conjunction Neptune You may enjoy a good movie or book or feel like escaping from day-to-day realities for a while. You can appreciate an imaginative approach and may value communal or futuristic ideas. Venus Sextile Pluto You may enjoy probing into your inner workings or some good solid gossip. You Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 4 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 value your darker, more secretive areas and don't mind working through some sensitive problems. Mars Mars in 1st House You could feel an urge or sudden impulse to present yourself to others and to get your emotions across. A drive to be more outgoing and aggressive could find you rushing in where you never dared to before. Mars Sextile Moon You have a lot of energy for improving your surroundings or life situations. You are very motivated to improve. There could be some hard feelings, especially from younger persons, if you become too aggressive. Mars Sextile Venus Your desires are strong, and you will want to enjoy yourself. Romance is very possible. There is a basic drive to appreciate and taste life. Mars Conjunction Mars A time of much energy and drive, perfect for starting something out or taking care of business. Very physical too. Exercise or romance is in order. Mars Square Saturn Relax. This is not an easy time. Your own drive and emotions are hard set against the way things are, your particular set of realities. Push on now and you risk breaking something. Be patient, and let this one blow over. Jupiter Jupiter in 9th House A bout of philosophy or even a little religion could have an enormous effect on your career during this time. Lasting values (whatever you find to be true and lasting) can guide you now, opening up avenues that have remained blocked. Jupiter Square Sun You may be experiencing a bit of a crunch as your career direction (and path to success) squares off against your more personal interests. This may be a real test for you. Be careful not to blow an opportunity for success. Jupiter Square Mercury Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 5 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Your ideas may not agree with the direction your career is taking. The price of success could mean that ideas and methods of communication you are happy with get ignored or set back. You may feel that you cannot communicate your thoughts. Jupiter Opposition Uranus Career choices, the obvious path that is opening up for you, may grate against your own sense of freedom and independence. Success and security at the expense of originality may be too great a price to pay. Some middle road could be found. Jupiter Opposition Neptune The career path is open and clear, yet it may go against or challenge some of your ideals and life dreams. Choosing between the leadings of your intuition and the road to success is a toughie. Take care to cut a deal that is a fair compromise. Jupiter Trine Pluto You may find that both your personal growth and your career may depend upon how you can handle the very sensitive psychological material that may be coming up now. You will benefit from analytical insights, getting to the heart of things. Penetrating. Saturn Saturn in 2nd House Your ability to respond to life -- to possess and nurture your own ideas and impulses -- may suffer some setbacks, or at least some major reorganization. You could find yourself limiting or cutting back on resources. Saturn Square Moon A touch-and-go time when it comes to your emotions and the environment in which you find yourself. You may be up against it for a while, as things get tight and progress is slowed. Your emotional life may slow to a trickle or be completely blocked. Patience. Saturn Square Venus A time to be patient and tread a little lightly when it comes to indulgence and overextending yourself. Things could be tight. You may find it hard to appreciate or enjoy very much just now, and times may find you feeling lonely and at odds with life. Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 6 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Saturn Conjunction Pluto You will probably be reviewing a lot of very sensitive psychological material. Although you may not be able to notice any change, this is a chance to organize your thoughts and build new habits that will bring orderly change in the future. Uranus Uranus in 6th House A change that brings new insights into how you can take better advantage of your current situation. You are more able to see what is worth saving and what is worth letting go. You may have breakthroughs (perhaps unconventional) in health and diet. Uranus Opposition Sun A time when considerable tension could accumulate, with release coming in the form of unexpected bursts of temper that may well involve other people. You may find yourself feeling rebellious, challenging those in authority or the established order. Uranus Opposition Mercury You could be under considerable mental tension or feel hemmed in by an overly conservative mental atmosphere. You may feel compelled to change your mind now and have new thoughts and forms of expression. Bucking other people's ideas may be in order. Uranus Square Uranus A period of pressure and tension relating to your sense of independence and freedom. You may find yourself curbing a tendency within to rebel and actually finding freedom this time by pursuing more established routes. Uranus Square Neptune You could find yourself struggling to overthrow everything that is dreamy or otherworldly in you, perhaps even undermining your real dreams and ideals. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Perhaps your rebelliousness can be kept in tow. Neptune Neptune in 5th House You may find yourself emotional and expressive in a most imaginative and Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 7 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 almost mystical sense. Creativity -- the arts, theater, sports -- take on an almost ideal and other-worldly dimension. A sense of acting out your own dream. Neptune Opposition Moon A tendency to escape or withdraw into your imagination at the expense of your friends and supporters. You may be unrealistic, taken with dreams, psychic matters, and the like. Your living situation or a younger person may challenge your dreaminess. Neptune Opposition Venus Others may not appreciate your expressed ideals and goals or may challenge them. You could find it easy to get carried away and be indiscriminate or lose hold of your sense of values. You could do something that goes against your own sense of good taste. Neptune Opposition Jupiter It could be easy for high-sounding ideas and false ideals to mislead you into making career or vocational decisions that are wrong for you. Be careful that you don't involve yourself in some plan to misguide or deceive another. Pluto Pluto in 3rd House You become very expert at search and inquiry into the nature of a subject, be it life, scientific research, or what-have-you. A passion for searching, finding out, and communicating takes hold. Intense pursuit of limits. Pluto Square Sun A time when your basic life direction and sense of purpose may be tested by sensitive and very personal matters. Questions of vulnerability and insecurity may hound you, trying to force you off your slated path. You may have to tread with care. Pluto Square Mercury A crazy time when you may feel under a lot of mental pressure. You may be unable to put some of your insecurity and sense of change into words, to communicate them. A tendency to probe and analyze may not fit in with your normal way of thinking. Pluto Trine Jupiter A time during which your career (life path) undergoes a certain amount of Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 8 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 change and transformation. You find yourself uninterested in sidetracks -- what is not essential. You can really home in on how to solve problems and get where you want to go. Pluto Conjunction Uranus You may become fiercely independent and rebellious, defying rules and conventions, especially as regard psychological mores and taboos. You could find yourself gaining insights into everything secret and psychological, breaking accepted rules. Pluto Conjunction Neptune A time of intense soul-searching during which you examine your ideals and goals with an eye to separating the wheat from the chaff. You could take an interest in world unity and a more communal type of existence. Search for pure ideals, pure vision. Node Node in 1st House You take on responsibility because of who you are and what you are, and as a result you are your own burden, answerable ultimately only to yourself. There is innate isolation because of it, and your greatest desire and ultimate reward is a partner to share it with. But for that, you must forge it, and yourself, first. Vertex Vertex in 11th House Vertex Conjunction Moon In ways you don't often suspect until after the fact, your feelings call the shots and turn your corners for you. Even a small shift of emotions expressed at a stray moment can become the tipping point for you, not because you intend it to, but because of seemingly blind timing. You know it, can't stop it, and it's OK. Vertex Conjunction Venus Watch what you wish for, because even the slightest hint of desire can turn your life around, just because you wanted something. It's not even about pursuing a passion, though that may be critical, too -- events just get suddenly jogged and rearranged because something pleased you and you reached for it, and everything changed. Transit Report: Layla Knowflake Page 9 Copyright ©2006 Matrix Software - Big Rapids, MI 49307 Vertex Conjunction Jupiter Your inclination to take it to the next level, try a new and better version, will involve you in fated turns when you least expect it. Sometimes you intend it, but other times just a casual enthusiastic suggestion turns into something that changes the whole direction of things. Positivity rules, even when you're not pointed that way. IP: Logged |

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 are all things to all people, always responding in a way to please and flatter -- a social being. You are so diplomatic and polite that one wonders if you have a viewpoint of your own. You have a natural ability to reflect and mirror others.

Introduction Page 3 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. Your keyword is responsibility -- the ability to respond. You are able to find yourself in others, in relationships, rather than alone -- a mirror or clear pool. You can be peaceful, calm, and undisturbed. A genius at bringing out others getting them to do things, you are a born strategist. Sun in Libra 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 communication and using the mind, and the two should never be far apart. Sun Conjunction Mercury It may be difficult for you to break with convention and head out on your own. Your ambitions may well prosper, but often at the expense of any real independence and freedom. There is a switch effect: you may alternate between very conventional behavior and sudden Planet Aspects Page 4 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake rebellious lapses. At these times your nonconformity and refusal to go along works against your own best interests, making it difficult to get ahead. Sun Square Uranus You find yourself fighting to realize your ambitions amidst a sea of fuzzy dreams. A fear of letting go (and trusting the more mystical side of yourself) keeps you hard at it. You can't seem to let yourself dream a little, don't trust your own idealizations, and struggle between your sense of ideals and your more realistic ambitions. Your practical concerns with getting ahead and fulfilling your ambitions tend to ignore your more deep-rooted ideals and dreams. You may not trust those in authority. Sun Square Neptune 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 gregarious, even to the point of bringing out the performer in others. You somehow always manage to find a creative environment or the creative in any environment. You are great with kids and big on animals, sports, and the outdoors. You are an instant umbrella of warmth, friendship, and self-expression. Moon in Leo You like other people, and they can tell. Others value you for your sense of discrimination and kindness. You love working with groups, especially in psychological areas and where feelings are involved. You are very discriminating when it comes to your home and surroundings -- a great lover of tradition. Your love of history, different cultures, and your own past is exceptional. You value and are a connoisseur of all things bright and kind. Moon Conjunction Venus You find it easy to work with other people and tend to pour a lot of energy into those around you. Your home and surroundings reflect this. When it comes to teaching or coaching younger people, you are a natural, always able to motivate and inspire others. With your powerful spirit, you enjoy your strong emotions and have an active social life as well. Moon Sextile Mars The public loves you, and it may be hard for you to avoid working with and for others. The way for you involves working with people. Everyone sees you as genuine and giving and tends to trust you on sight. Your ability to counsel others is excellent, and you are always sought out Planet Aspects Page 5 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake for advice. A born leader, others find it easy to take instructions from you and tend to follow your example. You enjoy helping others solve their problems. Moon Conjunction Jupiter You keep your feelings and emotions to yourself and resent any attempt to analyze or probe them. Your home and surroundings are tidy and air-tight, as well. However, you don't mind probing and dissecting the lives of others. This can't help but produce a strain in your relations with others, and you probably get very little support for your detective work. These two parts of you which seldom meet cause constant tension, resulting in periodic explosions. Moon Square Pluto 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. Yours is a reflective mind, a mirror for others. You are equality-minded and easy to talk with -- a great mediator or negotiator. You find it easy to accept the ideas and thoughts of others and to hear them out. You are good at relations (politics, diplomacy, sales), not to mention considerate, helpful, and courteous. Calm. Mercury in Libra 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 You may have trouble with any ideas that are new and different. Your more conservative way of thinking and expressing yourself goes against all that is radical and new. Thoughts and concepts that break with tradition may be a hassle for you -- a constant headache. You prefer that conversations and communications stay on the accepted paths and become irritated when they stray from what you expect. You have a tendency to lose your temper with little warning. Mercury Square Uranus Planet Aspects Page 6 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake You find talk of the other world, and mysticism in general, to be a real hassle. You struggle to keep this and any spiritual material at bay and, like your mind, down-to-earth and quite conventional. It may be hard for you to think about spiritual matters, much less express them in words or thoughts. You like your dreams neat and are troubled when thoughts of other lives and what-not intrude. You would rather not talk about it. Mercury Square Neptune 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. Big heart, big love, you are seldom petty. Given to grand gestures and dramatic scenes, you love independence and greatness in all forms and are very regal. You can be generous to a fault. Children and animals are high on your list of priorities. Fervently loyal, you are courageous and demonstrative. Venus in Leo You have a natural love of history, different cultures, and your own past. You can appreciate the emotional and psychological side of life, and working with groups will be a top priority. Others value you for your sense of appreciation and love. Moon Conjunction Venus You value fairness in all things and go out of your way to be just. You appreciate others who have been successful and may surround yourself with those in power, be they politicians, officials, what-have-you. Your sense of quality and discrimination may amount to some sort of livelihood for you. You could make your living with your good taste. In addition, you have an innate sense of how to work with and guide others in making decisions. You understand the choices and can spot the right ones. Venus Conjunction Jupiter 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 Layla 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. You have an inner urge to be all things to all people and would rather bend than argue or make an issue. You are a natural diplomat, always courteous and concerned with the comfort and welfare of others. You stay in the background, but are able to manipulate and bring out cooperation in others every time. Mars in Libra A born coach or teacher, you are at home in the physical and "doing" areas of life. An inspiration and driving force in the lives of others. Quite able to manage a very active and strong emotional life. Strong spirit. Attractive. Direct, perhaps loud. Moon Sextile Mars You hate a lack of clarity, especially when it comes to your feelings and emotions. This is a less than ideal world as far as you are concerned, and you are for making the best of it. Whatever dreams and ideals you may have had are somehow shut off from the day-to-day realities you face. You would rather ignore your dreams than be tortured by their remoteness. You are suspicious of pie-in-the-sky and have an abnormal fear of being deceived, in particular in matters of love and feelings. A sign of emotional tension. Mars Square Neptune Feelings and emotions are an open book with you, and you wear your heart on your sleeve. Others may find your drive and openness threatening and aggressive. Mars Conjunction Ascendant You are very competitive -- even pushy -- when it comes to partners and other people. You have a great social drive and love to work in a group or with close friends. Mars Square 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. Planet Aspects Page 8 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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. Willing and able to respond to almost any emergency, you are responsible and always ready. Jupiter in Virgo A born teacher or group leader, counselor or guide. Others find it easy to take direction from you by example alone. You enjoy immersing yourself in a group, solving problems, raising spirits, and so on. People admire your openness and generosity. Moon Conjunction Jupiter You appreciate a winner and are drawn to the successful and powerful (politics, and such). You may make your living by virtue of your good taste, sense of quality, and discrimination. You love and value guiding others, counseling, and solving problems. Venus Conjunction 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 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. 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 are very methodical and practical when it comes to matters of home and family, even at the expense of your career. Saturn Opposition Midheaven Planet Aspects Page 9 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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 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 Your need for self-expression and independence may be at the expense of your real growth. You may rebel or find yourself bucking authority figures. It is clear to you that your unconventionality costs you. Part of you wants to conform and go along. Sun Square Uranus You tend to carry a lot of mental energy and tension, and this can suddenly erupt when you're not kept busy. The way you speak, think, and use your mind can give way to sheer insight and brilliance. At other times you may have very conventional ideas. Mercury Square Uranus 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 Planet Aspects Page 10 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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 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 You struggle between your sense of ideals and your more practical ambitions. Your self-image and dreams are kept apart from the day-to-day practical concerns. They continue to confront one another. Authorities may not trust you, and vice versa. Sun Square Neptune Your ideas, thoughts, and mentality may struggle to keep a damper on a tendency towards mysticism and the spirit. Your dreams and ideals may be difficult for you to express or talk about, but are a source of much energy and not a little tension. Mercury Square Neptune You can be self-defeating, often pushing in directions that go against your own stated ideals and dreams. You have an aversion to foggy mindedness and lack of clarity, a fear of being misled or duped. Your feelings tend to compromise your own self-image. Mars Square 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 You work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are the most personal or private -- depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit, assisting at the birth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process. You accept the natural process of birth, spiritual and physical, and have dedicated yourself to helping it along. You would make a great teacher in these areas. Neptune Sextile Pluto Planet Aspects Page 11 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake Your ideal dream is a private one, and heaven is as close as work and family. You find social life and the outer world harsh and unimaginative. Neptune Square Ascendant 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 Emotional stress stemming from your insistence on analysis and psychological probing at the expense of feelings -- yours and other people's. No one will support it. Your sensitivity and vulnerability often find you at odds with the group or with others. Moon Square Pluto A searing vision that cuts through what passes for conventional religion. A vision of the endless process of life ever being born afresh. Great acceptance and faith in the natural process and next generation. Love of children and animals. Neptune Sextile Pluto The supportive help of women or a girl can be an important factor that will affect business or reputation and increase your sense of security. You are a fine psychologist, researcher, or detective and are good at dealing with joint or others' finances. Pluto Trine Midheaven Challenges and Abilities Challenges and Abilities Page 12 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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 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 communication and using the mind, and the two should never be far apart. Sun Conjunction Mercury 00°40' Feelings and emotions are an open book with you, and you wear your heart on your sleeve. Others may find your drive and openness threatening and aggressive. Mars Conjunction Ascendant 00°41' You like other people, and they can tell. Others value you for your sense of discrimination and kindness. You love working with groups, especially in psychological areas and where feelings are involved. You are very discriminating when it comes to your home and surroundings -- a great lover of tradition. Your love of history, different cultures, and your own past is exceptional. You value and are a connoisseur of all things bright and kind.

Venus Conjunction Jupiter 06°06' The public loves you, and it may be hard for you to avoid working with and for others. The way for you involves working with people. Everyone sees you as genuine and giving and tends to trust you on sight. Your ability to counsel others is excellent, and you are always sought out for advice. A born leader, others find it easy to take instructions from you and tend to follow your example. You enjoy helping others solve their problems. Moon Conjunction Jupiter 07°11' Challenges and Abilities Page 13 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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. It may be difficult for you to break with convention and head out on your own. Your ambitions may well prosper, but often at the expense of any real independence and freedom. There is a switch effect: you may alternate between very conventional behavior and sudden rebellious lapses. At these times your nonconformity and refusal to go along works against your own best interests, making it difficult to get ahead. Sun Square Uranus 00°53' You may have trouble with any ideas that are new and different. Your more conservative way of thinking and expressing yourself goes against all that is radical and new.

A fear of letting go (and trusting the more mystical side of yourself) keeps you hard at it. You can't seem to let yourself dream a little, don't trust your own idealizations, and struggle between your sense of ideals and your more realistic ambitions. Your practical concerns with getting ahead and fulfilling your ambitions tend to ignore your more deep-rooted ideals and dreams. You may not trust those in authority. Sun Square Neptune 03°11' You are very methodical and practical when it comes to matters of home and family, even at the expense of your career.

Moon Square Pluto 08°36' Talents and Abilities Despite whatever problems we may have, there are areas of life where we have clear insight and real talent -- natural ability. When it comes to these matters, our judgment is sharp and we always manage to take charge. We have the knack. It may be as simple as the ability to work hard and accomplish things without something going wrong. An innate sense of the workings of these parts of life makes it easy for us to learn and accomplish things where they are concerned. You work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are the most personal or private -- depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit, assisting at the birth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process.

Pluto Trine Midheaven 06°05' Challenges and Abilities Page 15 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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: Your Personal Background You may be a very social child -- an accomplished leader at the age of even seven or eight and a real socialite in the early teens. All of this is somewhat premature, so don't be surprised if you lose your interest in the external, social scene during your middle teens. You will discover a more subjective you and elect to take a more inward direction. Turning away from the social scene, you may spend many years pursuing your inner life. This more involuted and personal time may intensify when you are 21-22 years and last until you are around 30 years of age. At that time you will go through a remarkable change, sort of discovering yourself all at once. The more inward years of inner searching will pay off with new confidence and real direction. You will begin your real life's work after this time, and your middle years will be very strong and successful. 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." Oct 21, 2011 1st Pass D> (Age 20 0m) The date(s) (above) indicate the end of a very outward and perhaps successful period of years for you, during which you may have had an opportunity to establish yourself both in Landscape: Major Life Periods Page 16 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake career and reputation. You may find yourself becoming less interested in the outer and social world and more interested in your own inner changes. There will be less of an impulse for recognition along with a growing sense of being by yourself and enjoying it. This coming time will be less outward and may call for a change of approach and perhaps life style. This is not a time of outreach, not the best point to start any great projects. Instead you may wish to consolidate what you now have, pull back a bit, and prepare for a number of years of a more inward and personal nature. This will be a time of introspection, and you may find yourself letting go of plans and projects started in a more outward phase but as yet uncompleted. You may take an interest in your own psyche, religion, and spiritual ideas. This is a time to absorb and take in new impressions and information. In summary, here is a natural breaking-point in life, a time to let go of what has been occupying you for the last years and assume a new attitude. Many people find themselves withdrawing socially and enjoying their own company. In summary: This marks a more inward period that will last 6-7 years, during which you may feel insecure and on your own. Don't expect to make great headway in the outer, social world. Bide your time and prepare for your "coming out" a few years down the road. Saturn in 01st Quadrant 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: There is an emphasis on communication, expression of ideas, and the connections between things, places, and people. What goes on in your mind is the all-important motivation in your life. You tend towards mental pursuits and admire intelligence. Have Air You may have trouble understanding those who seem emotional or sentimental, yet your own practicality and factuality may attract just such types into your life. You may try to balance your lack of intuitiveness with logic and common sense. Want Water You are an aggressive prime mover, a starter, able to initiate and get things moving. Not always hot on the follow-up, you may tend to get the ball rolling and get out to move on to The Elements, Modalities and Angularity Page 17 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake other things. Have Cardinal You may lack flexibility, managing a foot-in-the-mouth when you least need it. You could have trouble adapting to situations or to the demands of those around you. Perhaps it is not easy for you to communicate or smooth over things. Want Mutable 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 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 a high burn rate (index of change) and tend to run hot and fast. It is almost like having many lifetimes within this single one. Things are always fast and furious with you, and you seldom remain calm for long. Your thirst for experience and growth keeps you always on the move. You work through an enormous amount of change compared to an average person. In particular, the following qualities are areas where you have experienced and will continue to experience much change. These areas of life persist in presenting themselves to you, so you may already have become very experienced in them. On the other hand, they could be arenas in which you struggle but have not yet attained mastery. 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. Your Burn Rate Page 18 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake Planets in High Focus Your mind is exceptional in its clarity. All that is mental comes to you without struggle or labor -- ideas, thoughts, mental things of all kinds. The light in your eyes reveals the brightness of your mind to everyone who comes to know you. Mercury 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 There are big changes (high burn rate) throughout your life in matters of organization and responsibility. It may be difficult for you to learn to be thorough, to finish things, and take care of all the loose ends. You may have a lot to learn regarding what is and what is not essential in life -- separating the wheat from the chaff. Getting down to the nitty-gritty, the bare bones of the matter, could well be a major lesson. Saturn You have a high burn rate when it comes to questions of your independence and autonomy. You tend to rebel and buck authority, and this will be a major source of change and adjustment. You will be concerned with issues of freedom and independence far beyond the average person. A passion for inventions, electronics, and the like can also be expected. Uranus You have a high rate of change when it comes to what you believe in -- your ideals and dreams. You adjust and change your ideals often and struggle not to get carried away with each new vision. The world of your imagination is a major focus of change. Neptune 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 Patterns: Your Inner and Outer Self Page 19 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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 very gifted, having great magnetism and warmth and also a keen and powerful mind. You can do anything you want to do in this life, if you can manage to get moving in one direction and keep at it. This is a very fortunate chart, but one that may result in laziness. You may find it more convenient to neglect your mental, conceptual, and organizational abilities in favor of your social agility and animal warmth. People will value you for your warmth and dynamic qualities as much as for your ideas, and you may find it easier to acquiesce with your animal warmth than to develop your mind. You can relate to almost all types of people with equal ease. Square Type 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. Your most essential quality has to do with the very real love and compassion you radiate. Your sense of values and sheer appreciation for life are communicated to all who come to know you. Beyond whatever external considerations may be present, you exude a contagious thankfulness and fondness for things and people. These inner, loving qualities are experienced as a very real good. Venus 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 Layla Knowflake The Personal Hot Spot Your dreams and ideals are the number-one component for action in your chart. Your imagination is crucial to your functioning. Neptune 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. There could be a lot of emotional tension with this combination. You tend to set yourself against whatever forces of change manage to rear their heads around you. This is never more true than where your feelings are concerned. Your attempt to remain untouched and impersonal seems doomed to failure. Everything intrudes, gets too personal, and threatens to hurt your feelings. Your insistence on being an emotional island is probably interspersed with bursts of anger, even fits of rage. Mars Dis Pluto 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 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 Interface: Innermost qualities Page 21 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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. Pluto Dis Mercury 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. Oct 04, 2013 1st Pass D> (Age 22 0m) Dec 09, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 2m) May 24, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 7m) Major Transits Happening Now Page 22 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake You may find that both your personal growth and your career may depend upon how you can handle the very sensitive psychological material that may be coming up now. You will benefit from analytical insights, getting to the heart of things. Penetrating. Jupiter Trine Pluto Jun 08, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 8m) You may not feel like taking the obvious road to success that has opened in front of you. Good choices from a career standpoint may tend to ignore your feelings and ambitions. Your own basic drive may be at odds with the direction your life is taking. Jupiter Square Mars Jun 23, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 8m) Work and career should be a primary focus during this period. An opportunity to make good decisions, clear choices, is yours. You are at your most practical, and what happens now may have a lasting effect on your life direction. Jupiter in Tenth House Jul 17, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 9m) Opportunities may go against your own sense of security and responsibility. Career choices may require that you take a chance and neglect the home front. This is a tough call, and some compromise is perhaps the best way to a workable solution. Jupiter Opposition Saturn Sep 03, 2014 1st Pass D> (Age 22 11m) Everything may be pouring in at once, and it's all good news. Your career direction gets some encouragement, and life's problems should find easy solutions. You may benefit from an older person or one in authority. Life could assume a dreamlike stance. Jupiter Sextile Sun Sep 07, 2014 1st Pass D> (Age 22 11m) You find that you can really use your mind to make clear choices and think things through. Career decisions are straightforward and easy to make. You make your way through ideas, concepts, and your ability to communicate and express them to others. Jupiter Sextile Mercury Dec 15, 2013 1st Pass D> (Age 22 2m) May 30, 2014 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 7m) Sep 08, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 11m) Major Transits Happening Now Page 23 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake Your ability to respond to life -- to possess and nurture your own ideas and impulses -- may suffer some setbacks, or at least some major reorganization. You could find yourself limiting or cutting back on resources. Saturn in Second House Dec 16, 2013 1st Pass D> (Age 22 2m) May 27, 2014 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 7m) Sep 10, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 11m) You will probably be reviewing a lot of very sensitive psychological material. Although you may not be able to notice any change, this is a chance to organize your thoughts and build new habits that will bring orderly change in the future. Saturn Conjunction Pluto Oct 18, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 22 0m) Feb 12, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 4m) A period of pressure and tension relating to your sense of independence and freedom. You may find yourself curbing a tendency within to rebel and actually finding freedom this time by pursuing more established routes. Uranus Square Uranus Sep 26, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 21 11m) Mar 03, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 4m) A time when considerable tension could accumulate, with release coming in the form of unexpected bursts of temper that may well involve other people. You may find yourself feeling rebellious, challenging those in authority or the established order. Uranus Opposition Sun Sep 08, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 21 11m) Mar 15, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 5m) You could be under considerable mental tension or feel hemmed in by an overly conservative mental atmosphere. You may feel compelled to change your mind now and have new thoughts and forms of expression. Bucking other people's ideas may be in order. Uranus Opposition Mercury Apr 30, 2014 1st Pass D> (Age 22 6m) You could find yourself struggling to overthrow everything that is dreamy or other-worldly Major Transits Happening Now Page 24 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake in you, perhaps even undermining your real dreams and ideals. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Perhaps your rebelliousness can be kept in tow. Uranus Square Neptune Aug 04, 2013 2nd Pass R< (Age 21 10m) Feb 10, 2014 3rd Pass D> (Age 22 4m) It could be easy for high-sounding ideas and false ideals to mislead you into making career or vocational decisions that are wrong for you. Be careful that you don't involve yourself in some plan to misguide or deceive another. Neptune Opposition Jupiter Jan 07, 2014 1st Pass D> (Age 22 3m) A crazy time when you may feel under a lot of mental pressure. You may be unable to put some of your insecurity and sense of change into words, to communicate them. A tendency to probe and analyze may not fit in with your normal way of thinking. Pluto Square Mercury 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: 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 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 House Activity and Emphasis Page 25 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake You have a strong drive to be seen and known -- to communicate yourself to others. Personal appearance (the way you present yourself) is also a motivating factor. Mars 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 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 could be a terrific business person, as you have an ability to get past the surface of things and separate out that which has real worth. In the area of possessions or material goods you will go through a lot of changes and learn a lot. Pluto in Second House 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 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 You have real insight when it comes to anything connected to research, study, and the world of ideas. Your independent mental approach to problem-solving and communication finds you coming up with connections that are new and different. Uranus in Third House Your mind tends to be very imaginative and not concerned with facts and figures. Instead, ideas and writing of a mystical or poetic nature appeal. Research into religious or very idealistic House Activity and Emphasis Page 26 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake subjects is indicated. Neptune in Third House 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 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 have very simple needs regarding home and surroundings. Some might find you frugal. It may be difficult for you to send down roots, build a home-base, and feel secure. Feelings and emotions may be on the sparse side. Saturn in Fourth House 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 Aquarius, the sign of humanitarian goals and altruism. Always impartial and nonsectarian, Aquarian energy is communal (even global). The focus is on the goal, and the goal is always one that is for the many and not the few. Thus this sign is connected to far-seeing visions, world views, and group work of all kinds. This sign tends towards coolness, independence. Aquarius 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 House Activity and Emphasis Page 27 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake 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 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 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 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 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 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 House Activity and Emphasis Page 28 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake is the very heart of things belong here. Ninth 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 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 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 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 You have a natural insight and understanding as to what the public wants. Your career gets all kinds of support from other people, and you feel at home making practical and management decisions. You look to your work for strength and encouragement. Moon in Tenth House 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 Leo energy is expressive, emotive, and concerned with awareness and a sense of pride and ownership. Here is always a sense of home base or confidence from which the aggressive and outgoing Leo energy operates. Often very artistic, and always theatrical and expressive, this sign is good for creativity and the arts. Warm and big-hearted, this sign belongs to love of animals, sports, children. Leo House Activity and Emphasis Page 29 Astro*Talk Layla Knowflake You love community projects and group work of any kind. Your sense of values finds you on the side of altruism and humanism at every turn. You appreciate goals and efforts at the global level. Venus in Eleventh House You could make a career out of group or community work, anything involving attempts to bring large-scale and humanitarian dreams and ideas to reality. Your ideals and inner vision keep what is best for everyone ever on your mind. Jupiter 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 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 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 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 House Activity and Emphasis Page 30 IP: Logged |

May 09 Sun Opposite Pluto Solar Eclipse (Taurus-Scorpio 8th-2nd) *** Exact (Enter: 05/09/13 Exact: 05/09/13 Leave: 11/03/13) Emotional power and control play a big part in your life now. Master-servant games are being played: neither role offers true freedom, only dependency. If you love something, let it go: if it comes back, it's yours. And if you think you've lost something, think again: as long as you remember it, it remains yours. Don't fall into the trap of defining yourself in terms of external things or circumstances: you are not simply what you possess. May 11 Uranus Opposite Sun Transit (Aries-Libra 6th-12th) ***** Exact (Enter: 04/21/13 Exact: 05/11/13 Leave: 06/05/13) A time when considerable tension could accumulate, with release coming in the form of unexpected bursts of temper that may well involve other people.

Education, publishing, broadcasting, legal and political interests, and advertising offer opportunities, if you are on the lookout for them.

Changes in travel and educational plans are a must - you need to be realistic rather than idealistic, or you could get in over your head.

Don't burn your bridges behind you; learn that the only thing we truly can control is ourselves. Dec 07 Mars Enter Libra Transit (Libra 12th ) **** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 12/07/13 Leave: End Date) "I'm giving you a definite maybe" - that's the motto of the cycle you're now entering. It's a time of refinement and tact, of an urge to please others that is so strong as to make it hard to decide or act for fear of offending someone. You'll quickly learn to balance this out, or you'll discover that there is no peace in compromise - and this can be tough on close relationships. The trick is to find the win-win solution to the no-win situation - and if anyone's ever up to it, you are now.

Choosing between the leadings of your intuition and the road to success is a toughie. Take care to cut a deal that is a fair compromise. Feb 10 Neptune Opposite Jupiter Transit (Pisces-Virgo 5th-11th) ***** Exact (Enter: 01/12/14 Exact: 02/10/14 Leave: 03/09/14) It could be easy for high-sounding ideas and false ideals to mislead you into making career or vocational decisions that are wrong for you. Be careful that you don't involve yourself in some plan to misguide or deceive another. Feb 16 Jupiter Opposite Uranus Transit (Cancer-Capricorn 9th-3rd) **** Enter (Enter: 02/16/14 Exact: End Date Leave: 03/23/14) Career choices, the obvious path that is opening up for you, may grate against your own sense of freedom and independence. Success and security at the expense of originality may be too great a price to pay. Some middle road could be found. Feb 26 Pluto Conjunct Neptune Transit (Capricorn-Capricorn 3rd-3rd) ***** Enter (Enter: 02/26/14 Exact: End Date Leave: 06/03/14) A time of intense soul-searching during which you examine your ideals and goals with an eye to separating the wheat from the chaff. You could take an interest in world unity and a more communal type of existence. Search for pure ideals, pure vision. Mar 03 Uranus Opposite Sun Transit (Aries-Libra 6th-12th) ***** Exact (Enter: 02/10/14 Exact: 03/03/14 Leave: 03/21/14) A time when considerable tension could accumulate, with release coming in the form of unexpected bursts of temper that may well involve other people. You may find yourself feeling rebellious, challenging those in authority or the established order. Mar 15 Uranus Opposite Mercury Transit (Aries-Libra 6th-12th) ***** Exact (Enter: 02/24/14 Exact: 03/15/14 Leave: 04/02/14) You could be under considerable mental tension or feel hemmed in by an overly conservative mental atmosphere. You may feel compelled to change your mind now and have new thoughts and forms of expression. Bucking other people's ideas may be in order. Apr 04 Moon Enter Ninth Secondary Progression (Gemini 9th ) **** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 04/04/14 Leave: End Date) A yearning to broaden horizons and reach for the ultimate, a kind of spiritual wanderlust - that's the sort of thing that takes center stage in your life at a time like this. Law, politics, education, travel, religion: these are some of the areas where emotionally-charged drama will be played out. Report Highlights Page 3 TimeLine Layla Knowflake Apr 15 Moon Conjunct Mars Lunar Eclipse (Libra-Libra 1st-1st) *** Exact (Enter: 04/15/14 Exact: 04/15/14 Leave: 10/08/14) Acting on impulse can lead you on a wild goose chase now, so watch out for tendencies to be hasty or temperamental: they can lead you to do things you'll have cause to regret. Not a good time to establish any really important new directions in life if you can avoid it. Sometimes the urge to do something - anything! - can get out of hand, or even put you in a dangerous situation. Apr 15 Moon Square MC Lunar Eclipse (Libra-Cancer 1st-10th) *** Exact (Enter: 04/15/14 Exact: 04/15/14 Leave: 10/08/14) Your goals stand in stark contrast to the goals of others now, and an adjustment must be made. There is a need for compromise, for coming to an understanding. This is a time of decision, when small changes can have big effects later on down the road: make the right choice and it rebounds to your benefit; the wrong one (or no choice at all) does you no favors. Apr 24 Jupiter Opposite Neptune Transit (Cancer-Capricorn 9th-3rd) **** Exact (Enter: 04/16/14 Exact: 04/24/14 Leave: 05/01/14) The career path is open and clear, yet it may go against or challenge some of your ideals and life dreams. Choosing between the leadings of your intuition and the road to success is a toughie. Take care to cut a deal that is a fair compromise. Apr 29 Sun Trine Uranus Solar Eclipse (Taurus-Capricorn 7th-3rd) *** Exact (Enter: 04/29/14 Exact: 04/29/14 Leave: 10/23/14) Social and technological change is at work in your life in a big way now. Adapting to it is a must: trying to maintain business as usual will only get you left behind. At one level, this points to a change in friendships and other social connections. At another, it is a sign that technology can significantly alter your lifestyle. It's up to you to stay on top of the latest developments; failure to do so makes things harder. May 27 Saturn Conjunct Pluto Transit (Scorpio-Scorpio 2nd-2nd) **** Exact (Enter: 05/13/14 Exact: 05/27/14 Leave: 06/12/14) You will probably be reviewing a lot of very sensitive psychological material. Although you may not be able to notice any change, this is a chance to organize your thoughts and build new habits that will bring orderly change in the future. May 29 Saturn Re-Enter First Transit (Scorpio 1st ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 05/29/14 Leave: End Date) Overcoming personal obstacles through self-discipline and patience is an essential lesson now. If you believe you can't, you're right - otherwise you'll FIND a way to do what you want. Beware a tendency to be too serious and to see things in the worst possible light. Jun 22 Jupiter Conjunct MC Transit (Cancer-Cancer 10th-10th) **** Exact (Enter: 06/17/14 Exact: 06/22/14 Leave: 06/27/14) You make your way now by using practical vision and common sense. This could be some kind of high-water mark for your career, recognition, and so on. At the same time, a change of direction is in order, finding you in a gradual curve towards more inwardness. Report Highlights Page 4 TimeLine Layla Knowflake Jun 22 Jupiter Enter Tenth Transit (Cancer 10th ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 06/22/14 Leave: End Date) Ambition takes center stage now. Achievements that win you reward and recognition are yours for the making - but you must make them happen, you cannot simply wait around and expect them to appear full-blown. You could develop a knack for being in the right place at the right time, and you may find that you have friends in high places. Jul 16 Jupiter Enter Leo Transit (Leo 10th ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 07/16/14 Leave: End Date) High drama, big romance, a creative bonanza: this is the stuff dreams are made of now. The world is your stage, the spotlight is your goal, and the love and appreciation of others is the air you breathe. Children, lovers, admirers: these are the people who figure large in your life as this cycle progresses. A willingness to gamble on the future. Jul 17 Jupiter Opposite Saturn Transit (Leo-Aquarius 10th-4th) **** Exact (Enter: 07/12/14 Exact: 07/17/14 Leave: 07/21/14) Opportunities may go against your own sense of security and responsibility. Career choices may require that you take a chance and neglect the home front. This is a tough call, and some compromise is perhaps the best way to a workable solution. Sep 09 Saturn Enter Second Transit (Scorpio 2nd ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 09/09/14 Leave: End Date) Financial responsibility is the lesson to be learned at this time in your life. Be cautious, think ahead, and plan for the future: these are the values that will stand you in good stead and protect you from loss. Ignore them at your peril; observe them to your benefit. Sep 11 Saturn Conjunct Pluto Transit (Scorpio-Scorpio 2nd-2nd) **** Exact (Enter: 08/27/14 Exact: 09/11/14 Leave: 09/23/14) You will probably be reviewing a lot of very sensitive psychological material. Although you may not be able to notice any change, this is a chance to organize your thoughts and build new habits that will bring orderly change in the future.

Oct 08 Moon Opposite Mercury Lunar Eclipse (Aries-Libra 6th-12th) *** Exact (Enter: 10/08/14 Exact: 10/08/14 Leave: 04/04/15) The exchange of ideas and information is likely to be a special challenge now. Differences of opinion can be heightened; a lack of understanding makes cooperation all the more difficult. Avoid acting on rumors or unverified reports. Oct 08 Moon Square Neptune Lunar Eclipse (Aries-Capricorn 6th-3rd) *** Exact (Enter: 10/08/14 Exact: 10/08/14 Leave: 04/04/15) This is a time to shed illusions - fast. Cherished illusions are wearing thin, and you need to make some decisions based on fact - not fancy. Don't bank on hopes or expectations, and don't ride Report Highlights Page 5 TimeLine Layla Knowflake a losing horse into the ground. Oct 23 Sun Square Saturn Solar Eclipse (Scorpio-Aquarius 1st-4th) *** Exact (Enter: 10/23/14 Exact: 10/23/14 Leave: 03/20/15) This is a time of change and challenge where career, status, and security are concerned - a time to adjust to new realities or else fall behind. "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you get what you need" - this is one of those times, and it's crucial to know the difference between actual needs and unrealistic wants. Oct 26 Mercury Enter Second Secondary Progression (Scorpio 2nd ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 10/26/14 Leave: End Date) Financial savvy and a practical turn of mind are qualities that take on greater importance in your life now. A wheeler-dealer...a knack for knowing how to put people, ideas, and things together profitably. Playing the role of a facilitator can be rewarding. Dec 02 Mercury Conjunct Pluto Secondary Progression (Scorpio-Scorpio 2nd-2nd) **** Exact (Enter: 04/01/14 Exact: 12/02/14 Leave: End Date) Take your financial hunches to the bank now: you've got the Midas touch, so don't let it slip away. Secrets intrigue you, including those great mysteries of the human condition - sex and death, for example. You may well find yourself thinking and talking about these things to the point of obsession. The things you write and say have a great deal of influence now in a kind of subliminal way. Dec 08 Moon Enter Cancer Secondary Progression (Cancer 9th ) **** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 12/08/14 Leave: End Date) Emotional security, a sense of belonging and nurturing: these issues are felt instinctively now. You want roots; you crave a sense of intimate connection that will last - a castle against the vicissitudes of the world, so to speak. Dec 23 Saturn Enter Sagittarius Transit (Sagittarius 2nd ) ***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 12/23/14 Leave: End Date) The new phase now beginning in your life brings a need to break out of narrow concepts and legalistic philosophical or religious ideas. Remember: "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds." Opportunities to broaden your mental horizons may not come with ease, but they are essential if you are to avoid a kind of spiritual stagnation. Dec 27 Pluto Conjunct Neptune Transit (Capricorn-Capricorn 3rd-3rd) ***** Enter (Enter: 12/27/14 Exact: End Date Leave: End Date) A time of intense soul-searching during which you examine your ideals and goals with an eye to separating the wheat from the chaff.

The horoscope provides a permanent record of what surrounded life at its beginning. It is the blueprint from which the following interpretations are read. Interpretation text is from Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions both by Grant Lewi and published by Llewellyn Publications. The cover art is by Hannes Bok, 1962 All rights reserved.

Chart Data Page 2 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Introduction Grant Lewi (1902 - 1951) is a legendary figure among twentieth century astrologers. He was a writer and editor for the two largest astrological magazines of the time. His two books, Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions , were the first astrological books to become best sellers and even today, over fifty years later, they remain among the best introductions to the subject of astrology. The astrological interpretations found in Heaven Knows What and Astrology for the Millions were unique, fresh, and simple. Llewellyn George, the prominent astrologer of the time, remarked that Lewi's interpretations must be intuitive because they were unlike any that had been written before him. Today these interpretations remain energetic and forceful and, though some references are now dated, Lewi's text still provides some of the clearest insights found anywhere in the literature of astrology. Lewi was determined to make astrology more accessible to the average person, but while popularizing the subject he never watered it down or reduced it to the level found in "sun sign" astrology. Writing before computers were available, he made his books function as the computer, providing the reader with tables to generate their own charts or horoscopes and then linking his interpretations to the information found there. Lewi would have made good use of the computer, so much in his books seem to anticipate them. In his writing he tried to emulate the interpretation process by using a computerless version of artificial intelligence: the meaning of a planet in a sign doesn't stand alone but is modified by the other aspects found in your chart. Many of his comments depend on a combination of factors and for this reason you will sometimes find that he has something different to say about an aspect in your chart than he does for the same aspect in your friend's chart. This report calculates your chart for you and then collects all of Lewi's comments strictly according to the astrological factors found there. The text contained here is valid even for those who don't know their time of birth - Lewi focused on those factors that are in effect throughout the birthday. The only exception to this is the case of the Moon which can move between 12 and 14 degrees in a day, so if the positions were calculated for noon then the Moon could be as much as 6 or 7 degrees different and possibly even change signs. If you don't know your time and the texts that involve the Moon seem unlikely, you may wish to compare reports done for the beginning and the end of the day. At all times, Lewi’s aim has been to show how astrology can be used as an aid in living a more satisfying and fulfilling life. Astrology offers indications and pointers - and sometimes insights - to situations that you find in life. It doesn’t tell you what to do about them, but if it offers you a better understanding of the situation, then you are in a better position to decide for yourself what to do. To quote Grant Lewi: "It is not limitations that eats out the heart, but inaction, the knowledge of powers not used, the sense of having failed to develop to the utmost. The overcoming of fate is not the overcoming of Introduction Page 3 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake limitations: that is impossible. It is the exercise of free will, the assertion of the full self, expanding to its utmost with the tools at hand, in the circumstances that are set. Astrology, through the interpretation of the horoscope, assists men to the achievement of their maximum by indicating to them the lines along which their will may be most progressively applied, the goals to be sought, and the individual means by which each one may arrive at the outermost boundaries of his world." Horoscope of Birth Your horoscope of birth is the blueprint of your personality and character as indicated by the position of the Sun, the Moon and the eight planets on the date of your birth. This section is devoted to each of these members of the solar system. The planets are the antennae and arms of the horoscope, of which the body and soul are the Sun and Moon. No planet will ever cause you to act counter to the testimony of the Sun and Moon in their combined influence on you. Remember this when you proceed with the following readings. All planetary vibration must be considered in light of the basic solar-lunar readings, for these are your character, your basic nature, which the planets will help or hinder but cannot materially change. According to the sign position of your Sun, one planet will be more important than the others and should probably be read first. Your Sun is in Libra and your dominant planet is Venus. Not only the action of this ruling planet will be very important in your life, but also the attribute over which it rules. Thus Gemini, ruled by Mercury, lives a great deal in the senses; Libra, ruled by Venus, responds most readily to emotional stimuli; and so on. Study your ruler carefully. Remember in all planetary readings that they work within the pattern of your solar-lunar nature; never against it. The synthesis of your horoscope from the following series of paragraphs to a working unit depends on your keeping this in mind, which will enable you to weld all the readings into a unified and significant whole. Sun in Libra and Moon in Leo This is one of the romantic positions whether the romanticism takes the form of poetry and art, or whether it simply makes you susceptible to romance in its less constructive form. Creative art of some sort will be your best medium of expression. You must guard against the less desirable manifestations of romance. You are a temperamental, but able, person. Some quality of romantic temperament and artistic ability will attach to you in any case. Your ideals are your guiding stars, and you will stick to them to the end, believing in them as in a religion. There is something devotional about your nature anyway, both in matters of human affection and also in a more abstract way. You have an active and conscious idealism which you always strive to live up to, and in some way or other generally succeed. You are independent, especially where your love or your ideals are concerned - or your art, if you are an artist. You believe in art for art's (and for your own) sake and are unlikely to let considerations of commercial value or of expediency interfere with Horoscope of Birth Page 4 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake either your art or your love. You are ardent, sincere, and honorable in your love. In a male horoscope, there is difficulty through members of the opposite sex, idealism frequently finding poor response in the people selected. This position gives you considerable ambition of a very high-minded sort. There is a kind of naivete about you that invites deception and you have to learn to be unforgiving and to remember your unpleasant experiences. You are such an idealist and such an optimist that the blows of the world glance off you. You remember the pleasant and forget the unpleasant - an admirable trait in personal dealings so long as you learn by experience what sort of thing to watch out for the next time. Sun The Sun indicates the appearance you will present before the world and the psychological bias which will dominate your actions. What you seem, and why, are told in the reading for your Sun. In many ways the Sun is the dominant force in your horoscope and in your life. Other influences, especially that of the Moon, may modify the Sun's influence, but nothing will cause you to depart very far from the basic solar pattern. For this reason a whole literature and a whole business have grown up around Sun-sign astrology; and many people exist who think there is nothing more to the horoscope than knowing what "sign you were born in" and what the Sun in that sign means. This is a mistake, as you will discover when you have read the influence of the other bodies. But throughout your reading, keep in mind always the basic influence of the Sun, and remember that all other influences must be interpreted in terms of it, especially in so far as other influences play a visible role in your life. You may think, dream, imagine, hope to be a thousand things, according to your Moon and your other planets, but the Sun is what you are, and to be your best self in terms of your Sun is to cause your energies to work along the path in which they will have maximum help from planetary vibrations. Sun in Libra "He prayeth best who loveth best All things both great and small." Samuel Taylor Coleridge, born in Libra, October 21, 1772. Libra's aim is to identify himself with as much of the rest of the world as suits the demands of his very eclectic and elegant taste. Despite a gentle and firm sort of independence, he does not put much stock in "being himself," for he values other people a great deal and, if no principle is involved, will please others before thinking of what he wants. In a deep sense, what he wants is what makes others happy. In some this makes weakness. The girl who "made love only to her friends and didn't have an enemy in the world" was very likely a Libran. But so also is the girl whose charm is so great and whose interest so eager that she holds a man's attention without yielding to his carnal passions. And many who have tried to force the apparently yielding Libran along a path counter to his principles have felt the iron hand in the velvet glove. Libra's willingness to lose his identity in others - in society, in marriage - makes Librans ideal companions, or mates, for those who understand the curious need they have for independence that Horoscope of Birth Page 5 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake accompanies their selflessness. They merge with others, but they retain their identity, and will withdraw completely if their identity is attacked or endangered. They are democratic in spirit, but since they identify themselves with elegance, will not allow themselves to be forced into contact with things or people that offend their very strong sense of good taste. Thus they are often thought aristocrats or snobs, when in reality they have the deepest kind of inspect, sympathy and understanding for all sorts and conditions of men. They also have a great deal of respect, sympathy and understanding for themselves, and see no reason why they should ever give this up. They are the living embodiment of the cooperative spirit; they will work with you till they drop, but rarely for you. By the same token, if they are executives (and they often are) they treat their subordinates as partners, not as servants. Much is expected of the man who works for a Libra boss, who in return pays him well and treats him as an equal. The aide who does housework for a Libra mistress must keep the place spotless, but is treated with respect, as a fellow mortal whose human dignity must never be violated or imposed on. Libra finds deepest satisfaction in harmonious union with those around him, and with the whole world, which is not too much to be taken in by his warm and tolerant spirit. Following are the aspects to your Sun. In a general way, the trines and sextiles to your Sun make ease, contentment, happiness, luck; while squares and oppositions give you energy, drive, success, ambition. Conjunctions bring both energy and luck, and are translatable in terms of whether the Sun receives squares or trines, along with the conjunction. Similarly, squares and trines to the Sun together bring success through work and perseverance, and luck develops in proportion to the work done and the effort extended. You have great energy, persistence, and overcoming of obstacles, and can make it to the top. Sun Conjunct Mercury Orb: 00°40' You have a sound mentality. Along whatever lines you work you are fundamentally sane. Even with the erratic aspect, Sun square Uranus, Sun square Neptune, and Mars square Saturn, which makes for nervousness, you have a hitching post of normalcy. Men and women with this aspect have an assurance against serious or permanent mental difficulties which will carry them through a whole lot of stress and bring them out the right side. You have fixed opinions though you are not stubborn. You are tactful and considerate of the opinions of others. You are studious and sound in your intellectual work, but this position does not in itself make for creative ability. This will make for perseverance - the ability to add the ninety-nine percent of perspiration to genius's one percent of inspiration. Sun Square Uranus Orb: 00°53' You've sown your wild oats - and how! Your intellectual development was a good deal in advance of your emotional development, and as a result you had ideas, notions, theories, of independence and of human relations which you put into practice, considerably to the despair of your elders. You're a liberal in every way, with advanced social, political, and personal ideas. Individualism is very important to you, and your own ego comes first. As you grow older this outlook broadens from the purely personal to the more general; you turn from egocentric to humanitarian, interested in large ideas, large groups of people, social problems in the large. This is Horoscope of Birth Page 6 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake one of the aspects of idealism but on its way to that state it goes through many ramifications. You have been dejected and depressed and discouraged; probably you've had your share of unconventional and erratic love affairs. You always tend to be something of a romantic; no matter how much you control, or how much you learn to translate the personal into the impersonal, an adventurous spirit keeps gnawing at you. This is the aspect of Ulysses, forever wandering the seas - even when he's sitting by his hearth with Penelope. Translate your adventuresomeness to intellectual, rather than geographical or personal variety, and the world is at your feet. Emotionalism will dominate you because of your Sun square Neptune. You are a sensationalist and need to depersonalize yourself consciously. In any case, you have a periodically explosive temper and must learn the lessons of cooperation both with the world in general and with individuals. You tend to think that you are right and all the rest of the world is crazy, which may be true but doesn't make much of a hit with the world. Sun Square Neptune Orb: 03°11' This is a treacherous aspect, subtly weakening the will power and making you susceptible to influences that arise not always from worthy sources. You are a sensationalist and will go out of your way for the bizarre, the unusual, or the mysterious in experience. You have to look out for this tendency, which leads you to seek strange and unreliable associates. A certain nebulous and impractical idealism attaches to your emotional and thought processes. You are likely to think in beautiful and vague circles and to give yourself up to dreams and emotions of a hypnotic and dangerous quality. Reason should be your constant aim, and you should avoid thinking or acting along inspirational, intuitive, or sensational lines. Moon While the Sun's position by sign determines what motives and urges dominate your life as it meets the naked eye, the sign position of the Moon tells the desire of your heart which may or may not be expressed or realized in your life. When you "know what you mean but you can't say it," it is your Moon that knows it and your Sun that can't say it. "Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears" are the thoughts of your Moon's nature. The wordless ecstasy, the mute sorrow, the secret dream, the esoteric picture of yourself that you can't get across to the world, or which the world doesn't comprehend or value - these are the products of the Moon in your horoscope. When you are misunderstood, it is your Moon nature, expressed imperfectly through the Sun sign, that you feel is betrayed. When you know what you ought to do, but can't find the right way to do it, it is your Moon that knows and your Sun that refuses to react in harmony. Also, when you "don't know why I said that," it was your Moon expressing despite your Sun (if you are innerly satisfied with the involuntary speech), or the Sun expressing against the will of the Moon (if you are displeased with what has slipped out). Things you know without thought - intuitions, hunches, instincts - are the products of the Moon. Modes of expression that you feel are truly your deepest self belong to the Moon: art, letters, creative work of any kind; sometimes love; sometimes business. Whatever you feel is most deeply yourself, whether or not you are able to do anything about it in the outer world, is the product of your Moon and of the sign your Moon occupies at birth. Horoscope of Birth Page 7 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Moon in Leo The portrait you paint of yourself is heroic and towers above the world you inhabit. To live up to the level of your inner picture is a lifetime job requiring energy, courage and considerable sense of the drama of existence. Private satisfactions are not very important to you; you are less introspective than most. You want to see the tangible evidence of success, and like it best if the rest of the world can see it, too. You are a bit of a show off, but since you are utterly honest with yourself, you can laugh at your own vanities, even when they remain important. You want valuable possessions, well-groomed children, good clothes, accomplishments and evidences of accomplishment that others can applaud. Your desires are basically simple, and your methods of getting them direct; you know what you want and are willing to make sacrifices for them. You won't sacrifice personal integrity, however, or honor, which are the intangibles that do matter to you. Education, culture, art, music, however, matter less. You can take 'em or leave 'em alone; and ten to one, if you do take 'em, it isn't because they really feed your soul, but because you think evidence of such a soul will in some way add to your prestige. Throughout your life you will strive to fulfill an image of yourself which is less a portrait than a statue dominating the landscape of your life by its size, its beauty, the dramatic quality of its setting and the colorful beauty of its trappings. And in becoming this statue you are likely to become a lot of other more spiritual things which you don't even desire and which are added to you because of the honest workmanship that goes into your self sculpture. Following are the aspects to your Moon. Look to the trines and sextiles to give you charm and clear-thinking; and to the squares and oppositions to provide you with concentration and driving force.You overcome psychological handicaps for an intellectual triumph over yourself; you are the mind-that-found-itself type of person, though not necessarily in extreme form. Moon Conjunct Venus Orb: 01°04' Grace and charm if a woman, and personality or its equivalent if a man, make human relations and therefore life easy for you. You are likely to be one of the spoiled darlings of society, capable of winning people over simply by appearing on the scene. Considerable beauty generally accompanies this position, and even if your features don't look regular to you, there'll always be lots of people who see something there that they find easy to look at. You are a trifle vain and will spend money for adornment even if you have to go without something else that you may need more. But this is unlikely to happen, for there is a good deal of material luck with this position, and someone or something will probably pop up at the last minute to save you from financial distress. This aspect in itself doesn't make you very aggressive in either profession or personal life, but with other aggressive indications will insure the success of your ventures. A woman with this aspect may be a social leader of some importance or in some way the center of her circle; while a man is sure to have a charming, popular, and helpful wife. If you have this in your chart, you will find that your business and professional career is materially helped by social contacts, and that society is important to you. You thrive on people, parties, and amusements; while anything connected with these (singing, acting, producing, drama, music, writing for the public) will provide your best medium of expression and your surest way to success. Horoscope of Birth Page 8 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Moon Sextile Mars Orb: 05°36' You have a vigorous mind - sharp, quick, satiric - and a clipped manner of speech. You have an aggressive spirit which may or may not be manifest in your actions, but which causes your plans to soar and your ideas to expand. You have good control over your passions, which are strong; and use your anger to good purpose. You are a dangerous enemy because your fires are leashed and directed to go to the mark. In a man's horoscope this gives an aggressive wife, possibly a shrew, who none the less is good for him, stimulating him to action at the same time that she makes him mad. Moon Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 07°11' Character is your god. you believe in your own personal worth from a moral and character viewpoint. Your abilities may be high or low, depending on other things, but you are utterly dependable and can be counted on to do the right thing and think the right thoughts. This doesn't make you puritanical or cold, because you have a naturally cheerful and optimistic nature, very sympathetic with other people and their troubles. You have a genuine feeling for your fellow man, his problems and difficulties. This is the aspect of the missionary who may be interested in people's souls, but chiefly wants to take care of their physical comforts on earth. Here are found social workers, doctors, nurses, and executives in these fields, to whom their occupation is more than a means of livelihood - it's a conviction and a passion. You have a certain nobility of approach and of motive - you couldn't be mean or petty if you tried, and thus your popularity and luck are well deserved, and nobody grudges them to you. You can be a stern judge, but you will always temper justice with mercy. You will condemn people, perhaps, morally, but be reluctant to punish them, and you are never vindictive. You're well fixed financially. This is an aspect of extraordinary goodness. The humanitarian motive is uppermost and makes you an extraordinarily fine person. Moon Square Pluto Orb: 08°36' The important lessons in your life will be learned through your relationships. Men, the mother-figure will shape your reactions to all women. Women, you base your conception of your own femininity and nurturing abilities on the feedback you received from your mother. You tend to hold on to the past and act on your early conditioning until you realize how your subconscious reactions and motivations hold you back. You may feel you need freedom, thus avoiding close emotional relationships, when what you really need is to take a direct and personal responsibility for the direction of your life and the satisfaction of your emotional needs. Compromise is one of the key lessons of your life. Mercury Mercury is the sense-impression antennae of your horoscope. His position by sign indicates your reactions to sights, sounds, odors, tastes and touch impressions, affording a key to the attitude you have toward the physical world around you. Mercury is the messenger through which your physical body and brain (the Sun) and your inner nature (the Moon) are kept in contact with the outer world, which will appear to you according to the index of Mercury's position by sign in the horoscope. Horoscope of Birth Page 9 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Mercury in Libra Sense impressions reach you through a strict moral and aesthetic censor. You see, hear, taste, smell and feel with the proprieties of art and society in mind, and have few sensory reactions that do not have to submit to this type of judgment. A color is not just red to you; it is a warm red, or a cold red, or a beautiful or ugly red. Further, in addition to the artistic standard, you apply the standard of good taste, and what you see or hear will revolt you if it doesn't conform with your idea of what is "out of the top drawer." You are a kind of sensation snob, and the simple meaning of sense experience is likely to be lost on you if it in any way offends the standards of nicety you set up for yourself. Needless to say, you are very sensitive to odors and all kinds of physical surroundings. Your house must be spick-and-span (so that your sight will not be offended); noises if any must be subdued and quiet (not to affront your ears); the odors of cookery must not penetrate to the living room (for your nose's sake); what you eat must be seasoned just so (or your tongue and maybe your stomach by attraction will revolt); and last, but not least, your mate's face and hands must be smooth (even if she has to do the cooking and the laundry), so that your reaction will be pleasant when you touch her. All these niceties can make you fussy, but, if turned to their best use, make you gentle, considerate of others, and gifted in one or more of the arts where your great sensitivity is translated to creations that reflect it in beauty. Mercury Square Uranus Orb: 01°33' Quickness and mental facility are your gifts, with a periodic insight of great swiftness and accuracy but no great stability. Your mental control is not good, and your energies are wasted in temperament. You are independent in thought and action and your own mentor of opinion, frequently differing violently from established authority - and more likely than not to get into trouble through tactlessness. You like to talk back to policemen. The revolutionary spirit is strong in you with a "whatever it is, I'm against it" attitude. You like a battle of wits and will take the other side of the argument just for the fun of it or to help out the underdog. Your great independence and vigor of mind can make you a leader of thought when you have learned to get the chip off your shoulder. Mercury Square Neptune Orb: 02°31' You are a daydreamer. You think abstract and impractical thoughts which you weave into a web of reality but can't put into practice. You love beauty, music, and art and should try to master the creative technique of one of these to put your inspirational faculties to work. You have difficulty concentrating. You are easily distracted, not so much by things or people around you as by the wandering tendencies of your own mind. Even when you are shut up alone in a quiet room, little is likely to be accomplished. Venus Venus is the emotional antenna of your horoscope. Through Venus, impressions come to you from the outer world because of which you feel and react emotionally. The position of Venus by sign at the time of your birth gives the key to your attitude toward these emotional experiences. As Mercury is the messenger linking sense impressions (sight, smell, etc.) to the basic nature of your Horoscope of Birth Page 10 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Sun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Venus is in the same sign with your Moon; emotions also gain importance, bearing directly on your inner nature, adding to self confidence, making you sensitive to emotion impressions, and frequently indicating that you have more love in your heart than you are able to express. Venus in Leo You dramatize emotional experience to the hilt. Your emotional responses are both honest and calculated. They aren't spontaneous, but they aren't hypocritical. They are geared to serve your total personality and to insure that they will make the right effect. You know how you look when you're kissing or being kissed; and you're clever enough to avoid the appearance of posing. You are something of an introvert; love is yours to give or withhold, according to your wishes. If your desires are strong, it is due to some other position in the horoscope, because Venus in Leo, considered as a unit, enables you to shut desire on or off at will. When on, it can be a wow; when off, cold as ice and unapproachable. No one with Venus in Leo ever was talked into anything. In emotions, you do all the talking, and the only plea you hear is your own. This position is wonderful if you're on the stage and tends to make a stage of your life even if the theater isn't your profession. Venus Sextile Mars Orb: 06°41' Strong and magnetic personality with a large amount of sex appeal of the more desirable sort, intense without being erratic; and emotionally reliable. You are likely to marry well so far as money is concerned, and also to have good earning powers of your own if you should need them. You spend freely especially in the pursuit of pleasure or the purchase of finery. You profit materially through your parents and probably will have some legacy from them or from someone else. Money is important to you. You are a materialist, and your ideals have a touch of earth in them. You are ardent rather than romantic though if other positions show romanticism this will lend vitality and realism to what might otherwise be a nebulous ideology. You will never want for sweethearts, and you'll be popular always, a social leader gathering people around you - and loving it! Venus Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 06°06' You are gentle and idealistic and likely to have your feelings imposed upon. Idealism will be the keynote of your nature at the start of your life, but the world will doubtless take a great deal of this out of you, though it can never destroy it entirely. A naive faith in goodness prevails to the end. You are religious according to some faith or fashion, probably orthodox, believing in the reward of the righteous. Some wealth is shown by this position. With your Venus sextile Mars, you find much contentment and security, a sheltered life, peaceful and calm. Venus Square Pluto Orb: 09°41' You are more aware of love's burdens than its bliss. You do want a permanent, growing love relationship, but you seem to attract the type of people who aren't willing to give as much as you need. With time you will learn the positive meanings of love, which will be all the more precious to you because you already know the pains. One of the things you may become more aware of as you experience love is that your relationships reflect your own inner turmoil; as soon as you start Horoscope of Birth Page 11 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake respecting yourself as you are now, you will find that you attract a giving, loving person more easily. Marriage could occur out of a strong need for financial and emotional security. Some of your love affairs could be secret ones, possibly with married persons. An intense love affair for which you are forced to give your all could bring about a transformation. Mars Mars is the energy principle in the horoscope. His position by sign indicates the channels into which energy will naturally flow, and the uses to which energy will most easily be directed. It is the planet through which the activities of the Sun and the desires of the Moon express in action - through which your body and your mind react to the sense impressions of Mercury and the emotional impressions of Venus. Mars is in the same sign as your Sun, this gives abundant energy, sometimes misdirected in temper, temperament and quarrels. Mars in Libra Your social urges are powerful - sometimes too powerful for your own good. You are emotionally impressionable-your energies flow out to others and carom back to you with the added magnetism of other people, good or bad. You are sensitive to what you call love, and one way or another will have a lot of it in your life. You seem to sense instinctively that you are too impressionable, and in an effort to seem more independent than you are, will quarrel unnecessarily with those who impress you most forcibly - it is your defense against succumbing to them utterly. You must string for true cooperativeness of spirit, instead of being alternately as meek as a lamb and as mad as a hornet. Your energies and your emotions are always working together or against each other: your emotions express energetically and physically, and your energies run wild through emotional channels. You require detachment of spirit, objectivity of approach to other people, and moderation in the social and love instincts which tend to run away with you, upset your life and destroy your peace. Learn to accept other people more easily, to achieve true union with others and to fight down all extremes of human relations. Enmity and anger disturb the ego centers in you more than in most people; to be your best self requires harmony, and to achieve true harmony, you must learn that living with others is a two-way business and is not helped either by complete self-surrender or complete self-assertion. Mars Square Saturn Orb: 08°25' This is an aspect of bad judgment and of that peculiarly insidious form of bad judgment which for years may appear to be "getting away with it" until the accumulated flaws in your life topple over the structure of your existence. If you have this aspect in your chart you will do well to sit down right now and make a thorough analysis of your life, your position, and your security, to see whether you are not operating on a major fallacy - a fallacy concerning either your own capabilities or the nature of the world in which you are working. Somewhere along the line you are making a fundamental mistake in estimating your own capacity, or the extent of your security. This aspect will give you some sort of an inferiority complex to bring you under the dominance of older people. In general it will retard your development, making you indecisive and too willing Horoscope of Birth Page 12 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake to take advice and guidance. You are likely to be imposed upon - with periodic and depressing bursts of rebellious temperament which serve to wear you out without accomplishing anything else. You struggle for a decision, letting things mill around in your mind for a long time indeterminately without really concentrating on the facts and figures; and finally, out of sheer impatience you jump to a conclusion which may not have any relationship with the facts or with your mullings. The dominance of others, early responsibilities, and a sort of nervous rebellion toward them cause you difficulty in orienting yourself to the world. None of these things, of course, is fated, and the difficulty may be overcome by the assumption of independence in youth; by a philosophic attitude toward obligations which cannot be avoided, and an accompanying determination not to be imposed upon, or by a strict course of self-analysis, to get at the roots of your indecision - if necessary, to change your environment and your occupation in order to rout out those factors which' are psychologically distressing. Finances will bear watching especially with respect to sudden losses due to bad judgment in business matters, and the emotional nature must be carefully guarded against the incursion of factors that make for psychic biases in human relations. In a woman's horoscope this usually means disagreement between husband and father, or husband and brother, or husband and sons - or all of them. You had to defy your father to get married at all, or throw off some obligation or tie which someone is trying to foist on you. Whether other factors do or do not exist, however, the Nemesis of erroneous judgment very temptingly presented, must be watched, and you must make every effort to analyze strictly what you do from a purely rational, logical, and unemotional viewpoint. Mars Square Neptune Orb: 07°47' This aspect accompanies spiritual thought and spiritual leadership and is found in the executives of the Church and of spiritual and occult organizations as well as occasionally among great military leaders who have an unusually magnetic personal hold over their men. It gives you a spiritual insight into the affairs of earth, and a practical viewpoint about ideas of heaven. You are conscious of the two worlds which are not separate entities to you but related and integrated parts of the same whole. Thus, in strong executive horoscopes, this spiritual-practical approach gives your personality the ring of authenticity and divine right. You speak "not as the Scribes and Pharisees, but as one having authority," and you somewhat overawe those who come in contact with you. Whatever possibilities your horoscope shows, this will lend subtle but powerful force to it and give you a grip on the minds and hearts of men that is invaluable. Jupiter Jupiter is the feeler you have out in the world for opportunity. Through it the chances of a lifetime are passed along for consideration according to the basic nature of Sun and Moon. Jupiter's sign position indicates the places in which you will look for opportunity, the uses to which you wish to put it, and the capacity you have to react to and profit by it. Jupiter is ordinarily, and erroneously, called the Planet of Luck. It is "luck" in so far as it is the index of opportunity; but your luck depends less on what comes to you (Jupiter) than on what you do with it (the total personality). Opportunity appeals to you along lines laid down by your Jupiter. Horoscope of Birth Page 13 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Jupiter in Virgo This position enables you to find opportunity in small beginnings, to take infinite pains with the little things that underlie success, and to plug along at a hopeless cause until - lo and behold! - it amounts to something. The effect you give is of care, caution, and routine perfection of details; and because of this, you are often able to win support from financial interests who value these traits and consider them good credit reference. You will generally be able to get backing for your business; you believe in putting all your eggs in one basket and watching the basket, with the result that you frequently hatch quite a brood. Spectacular or risky ventures don't appeal to you. If this position limits the imagination somewhat, it is also likely to get you farther in the long run than the dashing fellow who has been through several fortunes, or jobs, while you have studiously been cultivating your own garden and raising a fine crop of security and possessions. Jupiter Trine Uranus Orb: 05°22' This is merely a contributing aspect and has little force of its own. It adds stability to the character and in some degree to the fortunes, giving an element of luck to the economic status and broadening the outlook. If creative power is shown, this will give it great breadth, scope, and social humanitarian appeal. If a business career is indicated, this builds the fortunes and makes beloved executives and managers. If public life, this tinges the purpose with a broad social outlook that may reach the constructively radical. Jupiter Trine Neptune Orb: 09°26' This adds to the spiritual insight, increasing any latent intuitive faculties and enabling you to give practical application to your hunches. Aids creative artists by adding charm and facility to their expression and by making it salable. Helps business men by enabling them to follow their hunches to good advantage. Aids all those who deal with people (professional men, politicians) by adding a peculiar magnetism to the personality and making them appear jovial, humanitarian, and charitable. Saturn Saturn indicates the direction that will be taken in life by the self-preservative principle which, in its highest manifestation, ceases to be purely defensive and becomes ambitious and aspirational. Your defense, or attack, against the world is shown by the sign position of Saturn in the horoscope of birth. Saturn in Aquarius You seek self-justification and acclaim and material success very much as Saturn in Capricorn, but aren't likely to be so hard boiled about it. Saturn in Aquarius wants fame, recognition and power, but is more concerned with keeping the good opinion of other people in getting it and will rarely if ever hurt them. This position adds gentleness and strength to any chart: the ego requires the approval of society for its own justification - requires the good opinion of men more than their obedience, and is willing to trade respect for love. The social urge in this way is strong, and Saturn Horoscope of Birth Page 14 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake in Aquarius will spend a lot of time justifying its transgressions (which may be numerous) and making explanations and excuses for shortcomings. Since society is important to you, you tend to assume that you are important to society, and if your whole chart is very passive, you may come to think that it owes you a living and that your existence is best justified when you are collecting unearned increment. This is an inversion of the urge to serve society which is the best Saturn-in-Aquarius type of self-vindication. If this goes into reverse, you're vindicated when you enable society to demonstrate its goodness with you as the recipient. To cultivate the social urges on their positive side, to seek the approval of men for progressive and constructive works, to accept responsibility to society as your true means of self-justification, is to live up to the best of this idealistic position of Saturn. Uranus Uranus in a general way relates to the neuro-mentality, creative originality or individuality, and his position by sign in the horoscope tells the direction along which you will seek to express your most characteristic self in creative and original effort. Uranus in Capricorn Capricorn is the so-called World sign and it is natural that the genius Uranus therein should produce a generation that would upset old traditions. With this position, you are likely to feel that you are giving expression to your truest genius in rebellion against things as they are, or as they were, for you still remember the revolt against conventions that occupied your youth, when to be part of the general iconoclasm of the day was considered personally daring. Mass individualism is the product of Uranus in Capricorn. To progress from the conventional unconventionality to truly finding yourself and your individual expression has been quite a task. When you find it, you will discover that your great contribution must be along lines of social progress, probably quite conservative in aim, even if unusual in method. You seek not to destroy the law and the prophets, but to fulfill them with all the vigor and individualism. Uranus Conjunct Neptune Orb: 04°04' Children born with this conjunction are natural mind readers, and they also seem to know what will happen. It is difficult to give them a surprise birthday party, as they somehow know that something is up. It is important to support the development of these powers, as they can languish and cause trouble if misunderstood. Travel is a given with this aspect. Uranus Sextile Pluto Orb: 08°51' You are a non-conformist, but you don't feel the need to force others to follow your life style. Your original approach helps you to get more from life than more timid souls, but you may have to cultivate a more constructive outlet for your energies than you naturally have. Some energizing factor within the horoscope - squares in general but, more importantly, squares from Mars - will be needed if you are to actualize your creative potential. Otherwise, you are too likely to coast through with what comes easiest for you. Horoscope of Birth Page 15 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Neptune Neptune relates to the deepest wells of the subconscious, inherited mentality and spirituality, indicating what you take deeply for granted in life. Neptune in Capricorn This combination resembles footprints in the sand: visible until the tide washes the beach clean. Strong intuition in business matters, even real genius, is qualified by possible miserliness and a penchant for fuzzy-headed schemes (the motives of which are always mixed). A barrage of leveraged buy-outs has sent the corporate world into a dither, and there is generally an attraction to conspiring against institution, fraudulently if necessary. There is heightened perception of opportunity, and the wherewithal to take advantage of it. Neptune always has a strong Pisces side, regardless what sign it is in, and connotes integration of the life function, a translation of consciousness from what is possible to what is real. Pisces is also the sign of boundaries. All too easily, with Neptune in Capricorn, you lose yourself in pursuit of opportunity. There is a nagging warning not to sell out or bargain with alien needs. You evince a subtle martyrdom to mass prerogatives. Too easily you may be tempted by peers to veer from your course. Neptune in Capricorn warns against a lack of self determination which challenges all people embarked on the quest of self-knowledge. Be careful you don't end up with agendas and priorities you don't understand, much less can't execute. Regularly assess the nature of your needs. To what extent have you taken on dependencies or distasteful customs, having let your convictions be manipulated by the forces of "a foolish consistency"? Do not confuse usefulness with bondage or enslavement. Neptune in Capricorn is characteristically revealed in drugs, both trafficking and addiction, small and large scale. Being out of touch with the Self fuels a need to anesthetize pain. You compare yourself to others: athletes who think they cannot compete without steroids, teachers who loath learning because they cannot admit any capacity for error. There is a battle of learning versus suppression. Consider the People's insurrections against repressive government throughout the world in 1989, most successfully in Europe, harrowingly in China and Tiananmen Square, dramatically in Romania with the execution of Nicolai Ceausescu. And consider the flip side of Neptune in Capricorn relative to these events: entrepreneurs buying up the tumbled Berlin Wall and selling it as souvenirs at $10/pound in retail stores (complete with certificate of departure). There were face offs between the ruthless: pragmatism and ambition of narrow-visioned political entities and every individual's genuine need and right for freedom. The Chinese students became Neptune in Capricorn martyrs by throwing themselves at a cause with such conviction and passion. Ask yourself if there are any people whom you permit rulership, anyone who justifies atrocities with a pretense of inalienability - for world events occur in microcosmic form within individuals. Neptune in Capricorn supports the survival of the clever and ambitious, and where it might seem that compassion would mitigate such Darwinian mechanics, beware how quickly kindness is diffused by the paralyzing loneliness which results from seeking salvation in otherness. Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 04°47' The ideas that were instilled in you by your parents, church and society will undergo changes throughout your life until your religious and philosophical views are distinctly your own. This type of creative adaptability makes you able to forgo selfish concerns and direct your efforts toward the Horoscope of Birth Page 16 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake betterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible. Pluto Pluto relates to the ability to let go of things, to get rid of irrelevant prejudices and outdated habit patterns. It relates to subconscious feelings, inner urges and repressed emotions. A strong Pluto gives the ability to see the hidden side of life, and thus bestows power on the native - power which can be used for good or ill. Pluto in Scorpio Astrologers have assigned Pluto's rulership to Scorpio, and while opinions occasionally differ, notably Carl Payne Tobey's that Pluto rules Aries, the symbolic meanings of Pluto and Scorpio do have much in common. Pluto travels its fastest in Scorpio, spending only 12 years in that sign, where it spends up to thirty years in the other signs. The Planet Earth experienced Perihelion between the Sun and Pluto in September of 1989, or its closest contact to that Planet, during which time Pluto actually orbited inside of Neptune for a while. Here we have felt Pluto at its strongest. This is a convincing argument in itself that Pluto rules Scorpio. Sexual matters are the main manifestation of Pluto in Scorpio. There has been an alarming spread of the AIDS virus. Questions arise and demand consideration about what constitutes safe, responsible sex. Free mores of the '60s and '70s have revealed a need to concern ourselves with the implications of what we still welcome as more open attitudes about sex. Sexual violence and rape have also come to the fore. Hardly a day goes by when there's not some story, great or small, in the newspaper. Pluto in Scorpio challenges people to deal with tension in productive ways. Unfortunately, perpetrators of physical violation find their outlet through aggressive outbursts. Pluto in Scorpio also calls self- esteem into question, with a general helplessness the result. Defenses are down all around. Pluto in Scorpio also has a dramatic impact on religion. Notice the number of cases of sexual abuse within the church. Also notice, on a more positive note, people's increasing interest in discovering the common thread in their fellow human beings and nurturing it for the better rather than, like their ancestors, using it for a noose. We are challenged to be more responsible toward the welfare of each other without loosing our respect for ourselves. A mixture of directness and compassion is the subtle key. It is an alchemical process, whereby we find the right proportion of allegiance and maverickness, producing wisdom. Horoscope of Birth Page 17 Current Transits The current transits are calculated exactly for the date shown. Lewi wrote text only for the aspects that he considered to be the most significant and only those are shown in this report. The dates shown only represent the times when the aspect is exact; its influence is felt for weeks, months, and sometimes even years around this time. A planet will often make the same aspect several times in one year before it leaves that area of the zodiac and moves on. This is due to the planet appearing to go backward or retrograde for a period of time and crossing and recrossing the aspect point. When this happens the effect of the aspect can be spread out over a considerable time and in this report the aspect and text will be printed for each time it becomes exact, although this series of aspects represents only one pass through this phase of its cycle. Remember that each transiting aspect is part of its over-all cycle and indicates a change of direction as well as an event. The cycle for a planet is the time it takes that planet to travel the entire 360° of the zodiac, beginning at the point where the planet is found at birth (the conjunction point), moving to the 90° point which Lewi calls the "lower square", then moving to the opposition or 180° point. Then it begins to move back towards the starting point, at the 270° point, or 90° away from the starting point, the planet is at its "upper square", and then it returns to the conjunction point where a new cycle is begun. Lewi will occasionally refer to these points in his text by name. In general all transits, whether of a planet to its own place or of one planet to another, mark cycles of growth beginning at the conjunction point, growing through the first square, fully grown at the opposition point, beginning to recede at the second or upper square, and finally starting a new cycle as it reaches the conjunction point again. How long any aspect will be in effect is determined by the speed of the planet making the aspect (the first planet , i.e. Mars in Mars Opposite Sun). One Mars cycle is about two or two and one-half years and so a Mars aspect will last about 20 to 30 days. Jupiter takes about 12 years for its cycle and so its aspects could last around 4 months, while Saturn with a 29 year cycle will last 9 months or even more if it turns retrograde. Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all long range aspects and usually represent a time of 2 or more years. While Saturn and the outer planets indicate long range influences in your life, Mars aspects will identify important months and Jupiter will identify important years. Not every occurrence of these will be of striking importance. But within a larger Saturn cycle or Uranus period of great importance, these briefer influences will be found to act as the second or minute hand of the clock of destiny, as Saturn, or Uranus, or both, act as the hour hand. Jan 7, 2014 - Pluto Square Mercury Your ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writing and study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become so Current Transits Page 18 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake obsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One of the things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning and importance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time when your tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certain forcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turn people off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely and clearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, in talking about it, you don't get carried away. Jan 27, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Mars This is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideas promoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellent advantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is the time when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. You are starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the next twenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into which to direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling your oats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrent two year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments, activity and changes. Feb 12, 2014 - Uranus Square Uranus This upper square falls at the age of about sixty-three and should indicate the abandonment of individualism, so far as external affairs are concerned. To go through this period without "drawing in your horns" is to lose the peace of your later years. Any desire which has not been achieved by now should be abandoned - released from concentrated effort. Your mind should be allowed to dwell on personal, intellectual matters; for as a result of releasing your drive for vindication in the outer world, you give your accomplishments of the first sixty years a chance to work and gain recognition for you after you have, in a sense, voluntarily given up the struggle. Protect health from nerves in this period and the years that follow. Feb 19, 2014 - Jupiter Square Sun New starts work out well. Plans for long term activities, such as business or marriage, get off favorably. Home is a good base of operations; and, if other indications for this time concur, it is a good time to buy a permanent home. Extravagance in private life needs controlling, but money is probably well spent because concentrated on basic and permanent possessions and should be steered into these channels. Entertain, build self-assurance by surrounding yourself with the things and the people that make you feel relaxed and comfortable; the ego thus stimulated shines out and helps you toward advancement. Derive your satisfaction from personal pleasures rather than from public acclaim. Mar 3, 2014 - Uranus Opposite Sun This aspect brings externalization of self, breaking of ties and sometimes the formation of new Current Transits Page 19 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake ties to replace old ones. Marriage at this time indicates that you are marrying on impulse or perhaps to get away from some other undesirable tie. Or it may indicate marriage to an eccentric, neurotic, original or creative individual. It isn't a good time for marriage because you are touchy and start married life by getting into bed on the wrong foot. Creative impulses are strong; your magnetism helps you make rapid strides, if you are controlling the purely self centered and self-indulgent urges which are powerful. Watch nerves; put less stress on individuality and more on cooperativeness. Think less of forcing your will on others, more of understanding their wishes. If you're a genius or a great personality, this is an outstanding period of your life; if you are an ordinary mortal, you have to look out for expressing the temperament of genius without getting its results or meriting its rewards. Mar 15, 2014 - Uranus Opposite Mercury You experience periods of mental stimulation, eccentricity, self assurance and self-indulgence. At first there are quarrels, strife, resentments, followed by illumination, originality and inventiveness. Financial setbacks are due to bad judgment, risks, erratic moves or desires and impractical schemes. If you're sufficiently controlled, you find creative originality all the way up to genius. If you're not, temperament takes you all the way down to nonsense. Mar 21, 2014 - Jupiter Square Sun Publicity and public affairs favor you and tend to go to your head. You may get careless with money, extend credit too far, and thus lay the basis for later regrets. Restraint brings you gain through important people. You profit by pull, if you are willing to use it as a stepping stone to work and honest effort. Avoid over-extension of ego and authority; be content to take a back seat. Use opportunities, not to promote fame or prestige, but to build foundations on which these may rest in the future. Protect health from excess; some danger of physical setback through self indulgence or overwork. Raises of salary come automatically, if at all, and you gain little by demanding. Rest assured that you will get no more and no less than you deserve, and that the intrusion of the ego is more likely to bring disappointment than favors. Mar 31, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Mars This is a period when new starts should be made, new plans put into execution, new ideas promoted. Energies work along their most characteristic line and can be utilized to excellent advantage. Control natural impulses if you have any that get you into trouble, because now is the time when you are "being yourself" and it is your business to be your best self, not your worst. You are starting a two year cycle and should establish the line you want to continue on for the next twenty four months. Seek new contacts, new avenues of self-expression, new channels into which to direct talents and energies. Beware lest anger and temper - letting go because you're feeling your oats - interfere with your best development. In your life check-up you will find that these recurrent two year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments, activity and changes. Apr 30, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Mercury Sharp wits help if you use them right, hinder if you get smart-alecky with them. Snap Current Transits Page 20 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake judgments, quick speech, sharp retorts and anger make trouble. On the other hand, keen perceptions give you the edge on others; you express yourself readily and to good effect if you keep emotions and personalities out. Sensory perceptions and powers of observation are increased. Creative powers mount; rapidity of mental processes enables you to do more than usual. Mental fatigue can result; budget time for relaxation and sleep. Any tendency to insomnia is emphasized; also to temperament, temper and self-will. This is a good time to sell, bad time to buy. Business is active, judgment shrewd. Sign no papers, don't commit yourself permanently; the picture changes too rapidly. Avoid strife, especially over trifles. Distrust intuitions; put deep trust in hard work and pure reason. May 3, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Sun The new starts of your Mars conjunct Mars are helped greatly with this aspect; your energies work smoothly, starting with Mars conjuct Mars (Apr 1, 2014) and gaining momentum as this aspect is reached. Your danger at this time is temperament, temper, a tendency to feel your own importance too strongly and to get into trouble because of it. Also, unless you have the endurance of an ox, you will tire yourself as Mars transits your Sun, and fatigue is likely to lead to strife, breaks and separations. Translate your energies to work, activity, detached application to a job or task; and don't get touchy or allow personal reactions to interfere with efficiency. This can be a romantic period; your magnetism is high, and you are likely to get what you want if you moderate your demands and use more persuasion and less insistence than you want to. Intuitions can go wrong, and you need the balance of strict mental discipline to bring out the best of your energies. However, it is an excellent time to go after what you want, and marks periods of important decisions and moves. May 8, 2014 - Mars Square Uranus This transit is not usually important except as a marker of temperament and minor strife. But at one of these periods some major break due to temperament - some sudden shift in the pace and direction of the life - is likely to occur. The individuality is suddenly awakened to broader horizons, greater worlds to conquer, and determined to shake off the shackles of restraint. In undisciplined persons this will mark periodic temperament, rages, rebellion and strife; also accidents and setbacks due to lack of nervous coordination. In normally disciplined individuals all but one or two of these periods should be comparatively inconspicuous. But the one or two may be memorable and probably nothing to be proud of.

Jun 6, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Sun The new starts of your Mars conjunct Mars are helped greatly with this aspect; your energies work smoothly, starting with this aspect and gaining momentum as Mars conjuct Mars on Jul 9, 2014 is reached. Your danger at this time is temperament, temper, a tendency to feel your own importance too strongly and to get into trouble because of it. Also, unless you have the endurance of an ox, you will tire yourself as Mars transits your Sun, and fatigue is likely to lead to strife, breaks and separations.

In your life check-up you will find that these recurrent two year periods marked with great consistency periods of important decisions, developments, activity and changes. Current Transits Page 22 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Aug 7, 2014 - Pluto Square Mercury Your ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writing and study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become so obsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One of the things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning and importance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time when your tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certain forcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turn people off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely and clearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, in talking about it, you don't get carried away. Aug 27, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks. Care should be taken to secure your holding, protect your possessions and yourself, for this transit includes some vulnerability to the principle of redistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emerge from this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events as keynotes of respect for structure and self-care. Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and the tendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take time to treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a more service-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, this could be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Sep 9, 2014 - Mars Square Moon Fatigue leads to strife, so relax. There may be illness and you may lose your grip on things. Refuse to take yourself too seriously. Go to bed and rest instead of brooding; you'll avoid strife and trouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance which may or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time with this. Sep 11, 2014 - Mars Square Venus Social and romantic glamour leads to excesses, sometimes to strife, quarrels, separations. Minor loves and friendships break up, but important relations are merely strained; and indeed this frequently adds glamour to a deep love, intensifying its beauty. A break here, unless contributed to by some more important transit, is a sure index that the feeling wasn't very deep or important anyway. Avoid excess spending and stay away from temptation if you're interested in sticking to the conventions. Current Transits Page 23 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake Sep 20, 2014 - Mars Square Jupiter This will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or through over-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is too enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck. Oct 18, 2014 - Jupiter Square Pluto This is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter can inflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - than ever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death or becoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at a distance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a great time for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into the ante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of the class curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever. Nov 5, 2014 - Pluto Square Mercury Your ideas and your methods of communicating them - in conversations, letters, formal writing and study - become more intense, with the potential for becoming fanatical. You could become so obsessed with an idea, a new way of thinking, that you feel you have to "spread the word." One of the things you have to realize now is that just because a particular concept has meaning and importance for you, it will not necessarily have the same meaning for others. This is a time when your tolerance for other people's freedom to think for themselves will be put to the test. A certain forcefulness in your conversations - which could end up sounding more like sermons - can turn people off, no matter how valid your ideas basically are. Thus, you should not just look closely and clearly at any idea that happens to command your attention; you should also take care that, in talking about it, you don't get carried away. Nov 8, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Uranus Expect temperament, haste and anxiety. Your nerves require watching. These problems can lead to illness from fatigue and nervous exhaustion. You risk accidents (literal and figurative!) from excess speed and lack of care over details. Watch temperament. Accidents in the realm of human relations result from overemphasizing the ego and minimizing the other fellow's viewpoint. Inventiveness abounds; originality is in the saddle; but you can't get your best and truest ideas over to any good advantage, and simply make trouble if you "try too hard." Store them up for a later time when you express them better and when other people listen to you more readily. Look out for machinery, travel, electricity; avoid danger, be careful getting on and off trains and crossing streets. Nov 9, 2014 - Mars Square Sun Domestic matters are important. This transit frequently times a move from one house (or town or locality) to another, or some important decision in the private life. New starts work out if well Current Transits Page 24 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake considered and unmotivated by temperament. Social activity is increased; you have lots of friends around you. This is a good time to begin new ventures for quick completion, ventures which have a bearing on your longer-range plans. This is a good time to clean house, redecorate, etc. The home is likely to be upset, and it's wise to make the upsetting literal and to some good purpose, instead of figurative and quarrelsome. Nov 10, 2014 - Mars Square Mercury Quick speech, thought and actions make strife and trouble. Be silent, cagey, noncommittal. The quick retort makes trouble. Wrong decisions often come in one of these periods, which recur about every six months and need careful watching. Sometimes the most casual remark results in a lasting grudge. Mountains (of trouble) grow out of molehills (of speech). It is best to be silent. Nov 13, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Neptune Super intuition gives you uncanny insight into motives and methods of other people, but not always into your own. Practice self-analysis. You swiftly feel your creative power, of which you can make good use. Beware sensationalism, sentimentality, self-indulgence; fight subconscious urges, suppressed desires, and make your inner ego work for you along constructive lines. This is an excellent period for creative work, for impersonal use of magnetism for business ends and aims and for social popularity. You have glamour that attracts others: be sure it attracts the right kind of people and for the right reasons. The Old Adam rears his head and may require discipline. Nov 24, 2014 - Mars Square Mars This transit indicates a period of hard work and abundant energies, which causes no trouble unless major disruptive influences are in force. There is a slight tendency to talk too much, boast and be arrogant, but the swiftness of the pace generally carries you through without major trouble. You should not let distractions interfere with plans you started when Mars was conjunct Mars on Jul 9, 2014. Protect health and nerves from excess; be objective and detached; and let reason rule the emotions. Nov 30, 2014 - Saturn Square Moon This is a period of some emotional stress, perhaps a physical or material setback. Your personality begins to work toward objectifying itself, and you are now finding that you may lose something in the process. Not to feel sorry for yourself is the chief prescription for this period. What you will lose is mainly sentimentality - an attitude toward yourself better forgotten. What you gain is re-evaluation of your personal qualities, an ability to stand outside yourself, and to marshal your mental and emotional energies so that you will continuously master them in the future. You gain a certain hardness, which need not destroy your human qualities, but which will enable you to use mental, emotional and creative powers more effectively in the future. The beneficial result of this period is self-mastery through objectivity and detachment. In lovematters you may have a difficult period. In material matters you are likely to mark a low point. The ego is too much occupied with itself to be materially effective in the world, but learns the need of effectiveness as a result of this experience. This square paves the way for the Moon opposite Saturn which will come in about 7 years; the more you learn here, the less stress will be found in the opposition when it Current Transits Page 25 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake comes. During this period you are able to learn by the experience of others or to help others with what you have learned by your own experience. What happens to you here or to those around you should be taken to heart and applied to yourself. The aim should be self-discovery through emotional experience: taking your whims less seriously, that you may take your true virtues more seriously. Dec 4, 2014 - Mars Conjunct Saturn This is a good time to slow down and if you don't do so voluntarily, you may be forced to do so by a cold or some other type of illness. Do your duties quietly and solidify the existing position in which you find yourself. Superiors need kid-glove handling; you may feel hampered and restrained in your work; your energies may be forced into a yoke that chafes. Be philosophical about taking what comes; passivity and acceptance rather than activity and aggression serve you best. You build good, substantial foundations, despite limitations; or else you kick over the traces and probably regret it later. You may experience colds, low vitality, fatigue, nerves, or your system may become run down. Take a rest cure if you can. If you stay well, those around you may be ill, increasing your responsibilities. Dec 9, 2014 - Saturn Square Venus Experience finds its mark in your heart, and some home truths about emotional matters are impressed on you. This period is usually accompanied by separation or break, caused by circumstances or quarrels and followed by a maturing process that enables you to revise your emotions along more practicable lines. Disappointment in others or in yourself, or both, leads you toward a saner approach to human relations. In material matters, you are generally required to skimp to make both ends meet, or you may experience the loss of money or security. Dec 28, 2014 - Mars Square Pluto This transit represents a strong alliance of similar energies. A sense of mystery pervades otherwise mundane events. Aggressiveness peaks. Care should be taken to secure your holding, protect your possessions and yourself, for this transit includes some vulnerability to the principle of redistribution. You might be knocked off your throne for no apparent reason. You could emerge from this period thinking the universe is a quixotic, capricious place, or you could take events as keynotes of respect for structure and self-care. Sexual energy will be high. You could find yourself surrounded by irresistible people, and the tendency is to think that the veil between you and them is much thinner than it really is. Take time to treat people respectfully. Take this opportunity to de-objectify your world view and adopt a more service-oriented demeanor. Depending on how successfully you have mastered life's trials, this could be a time of "icing on the cake". Just make sure the recipients of your "death blows" are the nasty loitering ghosts in your own psyche, not the people on the street whom these ghosts resemble. Jan 8, 2015 - Mars Opposite Moon Fatigue leads to strife, so relax. There may be illness and you may lose your grip on things. Refuse to take yourself too seriously. Go to bed and rest instead of brooding; you'll avoid strife and Current Transits Page 26 Heaven Knows What Layla Knowflake trouble thereby. Force no issues. Energy may find its expression in some glamorous romance which may or may not be important, depending on other long-range transits in force at the same time with this. Jan 10, 2015 - Mars Opposite Venus Heightened emotions make romance, which is favored if you keep it within the bounds of reason and convention. Impulsive acts, with or without a future, are frequently found in these recurrent periods. Glamour surrounds your approach to life; you are susceptible to the opposite sex and they to you. This transit frequently indicates the time of marriage within the period of a longer transit that favors it. If the era of romance is past, this indicates an active and on the whole satisfactory social period; business progress; extravagance with money; a sudden urge to go places and do things - and perhaps a chafing at the marital bit which should not be taken too seriously. Energies work through emotions and passions, which in turn work overtime and should be gently disciplined though not entirely submerged. Often, for obvious reasons, this transit indicates the conception of children, especially if it occurs while Mars is conjunct your sun or conjunct your Mars. Jan 18, 2015 - Mars Opposite Jupiter This will generally not amount to much, but periods of loss through risks or gambles or through over-enthusiasm or bad business judgment are frequently marked by it. The outlook is too enthusiastic to let sober reason dominate; but this generally brings nothing but minor extravagance. This transit might mark some major material setback due to a combination of bad judgment and bad luck. Jan 25, 2015 - Pluto Conjunct Neptune This is a time of questioning long-held beliefs in a search for personal meaning. You aren't willing now to embrace an idea without first testing it to find out how well it fits into your general scheme of the cosmos, your notion of the unity of all life. This manifestation is the highest one possible with this influence, but there is the possibility that questioning will result in rejection - without replacement - of all you have believed in the past. Such disillusionment leads to confusion, which can have a long-lasting effect if you aren't wiring to adopt or construct some system of belief on which to base all efforts at self-evaluation. Introspection is one of the main manifestations of this period. Jan 28, 2015 - Jupiter Square Pluto This is a meeting of the Mentor and Transformation principles - perhaps a collision. Jupiter can inflate optimism to a bursting point. You are closer to walking on water - or at least trying - than ever before. You are also closer to the meaning of death. Take care you don't seek out death or becoming overly controlling of your destiny. This is a time to let things unfold somewhat at a distance. Jupiter is opportunity, and chances will come to you during this transit. This is a great time for study. You will have powers of concentration; use them to reach deeply into the ante-chamber of your soul. You will seek out knowledge above and beyond the call of duty of the class curriculum and ally yourself with people and books that will transform your attitudes forever.
