Chart Data Page 2 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 Olivia SF 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 Virgo and your dominant planet is Mercury. 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 Virgo and Moon in Virgo (You belong to the positive or executive group.) You are dominated and motivated by your intellectual interests. You are loyal, affectionate, sentimental rather than romantic, and can develop a great interest in domestic matters. But the lodestar of your life is the mind, its products, achievements, and possibilities. When you marry it will be for intellectual affinity as much as for anything else, for though you fall in love, you simply wouldn't fall in love with an inferior intellect. Your high sense of discrimination, amounting to an intellectual snobbery, protects you from getting involved with intellectual inferiors, for you have a very finicky taste in matters of people, dress, food and house furnishings and can be extremely critical when your sense of good taste is offended. This sense of discrimination keeps you pretty conventional for no matter how intellectual ideas may appeal to you on the radical and daring side, an innate dislike of offending society keeps you pretty much on the straight and narrow; and when Horoscope of Birth Page 4 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF human weakness gets the better of you and you simply have to step off the beaten track you do it with such infinite care and consideration for the feelings of society, that society probably doesn't even know about it. You are something of a moralist, but your moral sense is social rather than abstract. You are a great preserver of law and order, and when you do arrive at the conclusion that things ought to be changed, you want to see them changed gradually, according to the rules of the game. You are no fire-and-sword revolutionary. Peace is important to you; no principle is worth fighting for, except in a polite and well-bred way. This position generally accompanies a good deal of breeding and family background, whence the reverence for tradition. You aren't an executive and should never by any chance try to become one. There will be major flaws in any enterprise you conduct, due largely to your conservatism and reasonableness, which sees the other fellow's viewpoint only too well and makes you less sure of your own plan of action. On the other hand you carry out orders admirably and are invaluable in important subordinate capacities that depend on the executive direction of others or in independent pursuits without executive needs - professional, or artistic. Your creations are marked by care and precision and a flawlessness that may seem cold and studied to more dashing spirits, but which is sound to the core, admirable in taste and execution. With your Mars conjunct Jupiter your creative gifts are powerful. You have power and influence. 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 Virgo "Three things are to be looked to in a building: that it stand on the right spot, that it be securely founded, that it be successfully executed." Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, born in Virgo, August 18, 1749. "The happiness of man consists in life. And life is in labor... The vocation of every man and woman is to serve other people." Horoscope of Birth Page 5 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Count Tolstoy, born in Virgo, August 28, 1828. To discover the motivating drive in the life of any Virgoan, it is necessary to look at the work he is doing; for so deep is Virgo's utilitarian sense that he identifies himself with his work and is quite willing to lose himself in it. His personality and character development depend, to a peculiar extent, on the nature of the work he has set himself, for he will be as big or as small as his job or mission. He is capable of becoming single-tracked, absorbed and narrow over whatever he happens to fall into. He is capable of making work his god, and thus going high and far in a chosen direction. He is capable of expanding his spirit by selecting a career somehow related to service. He is capable of the extremes of self-denial if he thinks his work calls him to that. And he is also capable of feeling that his work requires self-immolation, self-limitation and self-sacrifice to an inordinate degree.However you figure it, the puzzle of his nature will be solved if you find his attitude toward the hub of his universe, his work. So true is this that when you run across an unemployed Virgoan you have the most woebegone and incomplete personality in the world. In losing his work, Virgo loses his whole reason for being. In its best forms, this makes for efficiency and brilliance in the performance of duty, and it may take the sense of duty into very humane realms of selflessness. In its worst form, it makes for narrowness of outlook, great inability to talk anything but shop, lack of interest in anything not related to work. So engrossed does Virgo become in his job (talk, mission, message or whatever he calls it) that he sometimes seems intent on destroying all the rest of the personality that doesn't belong to his work. He loses interest in extracurricular activities, so that his life is one long routine of keeping the nose to the grindstone, and he is unhappy when for some reason or other the grindstone stops or his nose gets away from it. To fix the aim high, to select a job that requires diverse talents and wide knowledge, is Virgo's best bet for a well-rounded life. If he has the misfortune to be able to find progress and security in a rut, he is likely to see only the progress and not realize it is a rut. He needs activities, companions, fun, diversions, hobbies to broaden his life, and should seek these along constructive lines lest his overtaxed body and brain force him to seek them in undesirable forms of escapism, brooding and introversion. 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 Square Neptune Orb: 07°04' 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 Horoscope of Birth Page 6 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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. Moon in Virgo You look upon yourself as an intelligent and useful person, and pretty generally turn out to be that, if not also a great deal more. You have no desire to rule the world or other people or even to make a great splash before them. In fact, you prefer not to be in the limelight, and if you find yourself in it, it is by accident, because you have earned it by the integrity of your private labors. Your wish is to serve, and in whatever sphere you may be you will find the chance to do it. Your personality, while strong and stable, does not obtrude itself on others; you don't make loud noises or ask personal questions, yet people feel your presence, value your reserve, and are likely to make you their confidant. You have an acute sense of your own worth which you base in a sense of your intelligence. Yet you can value other people who are far from intelligent. You are an intellectual snob only so far as you are concerned, and here you apply the theory of noblesse oblige to realms of the mind, demanding of yourself that you belong to the aristocracy of the intellect so that you may better understand all things, and serve those who can't. In fulfilling this quiet and modest picture, you are likely to run into some pleasant surprises. You don't really expect other people to take you very seriously, and are therefore delighted and amazed when they do, and you see your dreams of yourself coming true in the sight of the whole world. 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. Horoscope of Birth Page 7 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Moon Conjunct Sun Orb: 00°49' This lends concentrative force to the nature. In a woman's horoscope, this is a bad position for health, and indeed in any horoscope the health needs watching. Your vitality is not of the best. This position warns you against pushing your mental energies past the limits of your physical capacity. Moon Square Neptune Orb: 07°53' This impairs the creative gifts, and your manner of thought and expression, intruding an unrealistic note into your notions and confusing practical issue with hazy and misty generalizations. In business, thought, romance, you have to keep your feet on the ground, for you love the clouds. You are capable of daydreaming by the hour and of concocting brave plans that would be marvelous - if you or anyone else could make them happen. This adds a sort of naive charm to your nature. You can believe in fairies, Santa Claus and ghosts, just as others can believe in Herbert Hoover, and your perpetual love for the mystic will intrigue those who love the innocent, the childish, the unspoiled. But all this doesn't help you much in the world of affairs, and an impractical approach to many things will stand in the way of your progress until such a time as you get your feet on the ground and hitch your wagon to a fence post. 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. Mercury in Virgo Sense impressions never reach you till they have been interpreted. What you see, hear, smell, taste and feel is swiftly given significance before it arrives at the reacting center of the brain. You never see just a chair; you see a beautiful chair, an old chair, a charming chair, a chair that looks comfortable or uncomfortable. You never hear just a noise; before you have heard it, it has been labeled pleasant or raucous or sweet or whatever. Your senses take the impression, hold it for ransom, and say to the brain, "Name it and you can have it." Thus you tend to card-index and catalogue every sense experience that comes to you. This leads to boredom, because pretty soon everything drops into its own niche and there is nothing new under the sun. Your pleasure in the physical world thus tends to diminish as life wears on, and through too much intellectualizing you can lose the zest for life. To get it back, try to regard things for their own sake. Remember that "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet" and that you get more fun out of a kiss if you don't think of it as a deception of Nature to encourage reproduction. Exorcise the demon of words from the temple of nature, and in the name of simple animal enjoyment, throw away the dictionary! Horoscope of Birth Page 8 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Mercury Sextile Mars Orb: 00°28' You have a facile quick mind, capable of grasping scientific facts and interested in them. But there's a good deal of a tendency to wasting your mental energies through lack of purpose, direction, and concentrative faculties. If other things show concentration, then this adds to the facility; if not, you'll have to fight against a tendency to skim the surface. A temptation to live by your wits is always present. If you hold yourself to a purpose your road to success is eased by quickness, perception, and ready grasp of details. Mercury Sextile Jupiter Orb: 03°32' You have had a fine education, and a trained mind makes life easy. You are just, honorable, and somewhat proud of your mental achievements. You are anxious to impress people with your knowledge and very sure of yourself. This doesn't necessarily make you accurate and a tendency to elaborate tinges your giving out of information, though not in a way to make you untruthful, You philosophize a good deal, thinking in general rather than specific terms, and may be hard to pin down to details. You are judicial - this may accompany downright Puritanism and in any case contributes to the puritanical side of your nature. You incline to the professions, your mental bent being somewhat more philosophic and academic than the bent that normally leads to business. If by any chance you get into business, your ability to see things in the large will contribute to your advancement, and your integrity will be appreciated and rewarded. Keep your feet on the ground, for an inclination to go into generalities can destroy your business sense. Mercury Sextile Uranus Orb: 02°05' You are quick, inventive, and broad-minded and have advanced views and ideas which you are able to make practically workable and of which you are able to convince the world. You are very likely to be a leader of thought and opinion in whatever sphere of activity you move. Mercury Square Neptune Orb: 06°25' 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 Sun and Moon, so Venus is the messenger linking emotional impressions. Horoscope of Birth Page 9 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 Conjunct Saturn Orb: 05°24' You have an extremely complex emotional nature subject to dejection, depression of spirits, and discontent arising from emotional causes. This usually goes back to your childhood, and the cold or unsympathetic treatment of you by one or both parents which has tended to warp your emotional nature. You are sensitive and have been hurt much too easily, so that you have withdrawn into yourself and give the appearance of being detached and a little hard. - which of course you are not. You have a somewhat sacrificial attitude toward love matters, believing that pain and suffering are the lot of those who love; and a liberal dose of self-pity generally accompanies this position. Your emotional troubles arise not only from the unkindness of others, but also from your somewhat suspicious attitude toward those who love you, which irritates and angers them and in the end may cause them to act toward you in just the manner you don't wish - a sort of "that which I have feared hath come upon me" condition. It is true that you have been imposed on in the past, but you must not judge all men or women by the few people who have disappointed you, and you should cultivate trust in those you love. You are extremely loyal - in fact, loyalty is a god to you. You will stick to someone long after you have ceased to love each other. Divorce is rare with this position, not because you are happy but because you are conventional and have a grim determination to bear all in silence rather than go through the "ignominy" of the courts. There is a tendency to marry beneath your station, either socially or intellectually, or to marry someone for purposes of reform - which isn't likely to work at all. This position, especially with your Mars conjunct Jupiter, frequently accompanies hereditary wealth, which may be lost. It is a somewhat good business position and in an executive type of horoscope makes for hard-headedness. This position usually makes it necessary for you to be careful of money at some time or other, and the more careful you are early in life, the less likely you are to have to be careful later. It behooves you to deal with extreme caution in all business matters, which have a way of turning on you suddenly and creating unexpected situations that have to be coped with, with great discernment. Venus Square Uranus Orb: 09°46' This gives an emotional nature alternately repressed and explosive, apparently somewhat conventional and cold but actually very independent and erratic in the love-life. A highly nervous quality accompanies all of your emotional dealings. You are an idealist in the realms of love, full of theories about sex and human relations in general, which complicate relationships that to other Horoscope of Birth Page 10 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF people are much more simple. You think much on emotional matters and are capable of hasty and jumpy action with respect to them; the motivating force behind your impulses is rational rather than physical - you can be swept off your feet by an idea, an ideal, a theory, more quickly than by the physical beauty of an individual. This ideology of yours is likely to take quite unusual forms, and to lead to strange relationships among strange and out-of-the-way people, because of whom you gain the reputation for being an eccentric. The square aspect will bring an additional somberness and sobriety to your outlook on human relations and will cause you at some time some considerable disappointment through misplaced or frustrated affections. You tend strongly to the unconventional in love matters, making a fetish of independence in your love life. A certain austerity attaches to you, and you can be unyielding when it does not suit your purpose to yield, at which time your detachment and objectivity can amount to cruelty. But at other times look out for impulse and temperament, for this is an erratic and unreliable position and makes you liable to periodic destructive impulses. Venus Trine Neptune Orb: 05°26' You are romantic, charming, alluring - and impressionable. You are idealistic, always looking for perfection in your sweethearts and in the world and blissfully certain that even though it may elude you, it's there and will be found eventually. You are more trusting than erring mankind deserves. You can be fooled by one person and, in the twinkling of an eye, trust someone else who may be even less trustworthy. You are attracted to out-of-the-way people - waifs and strays, down-and-outers, and can get yourself into a lot of trouble by believing in crooks, frauds, sensationalists, adventurers, and out-right seducers. Unless you lead a pretty sheltered life you will be taken in and shaken down at some time or other. Disappointment makes you reserved but doesn't destroy your faith in the ultimate goodness of everyone. This is one of the supporting factors for material luck in life. You may enjoy great wealth. Venus Sextile Pluto Orb: 05°44' This aspect deepens your response to love, people and life in general. You have the rare quality of seeing the best in everyone, thus helping to bring it out. Beauty, symmetry and goodness are the things you look for in life - and find! Your friends come from all social classes and backgrounds. Your understanding and appreciation of love is instinctive, and you are fully prepared to accept the responsibilities of love as well as the joys. 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 in Cancer You are at a disadvantage, for the aggressive energetic urges work here through the defensive Horoscope of Birth Page 11 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF sectors of the horoscope, and the result can more often than not be an undermining of the very security you think you are working for. In its best manifestation, this makes you a gentle and peaceful soul, content to give yourself to the establishing of a home and the rearing of children. But this best manifestation is rare. You will in any case think this is what you would want out of life if - alas! - so many things did not demand attention first! Women with this position have a curious way of ruling the roost, at the same time that they think they want a strong brave man to shield them from the world. Men with this position frequently are ruled by their women or by the psychological biases rooted in the mother inheritance. You must constantly strive to direct your energies, your passions, your intuitions, and prevent them from directing you. You tend to try too hard, and thus to lose the benefits of the free flow of instinct. And through trying too hard, or demanding too much, you run the risk of endangering the very security without which you never will express your best self. Your fears are all too likely to get the upper hand and to cause you to exaggerate little troubles. You make mountains out of molehills, and the mountains bring forth an avalanche on your head. You take yourself and your private life too seriously; and must beware of destructively directing into them the energies that should be flowing out to the world of business or society. Mars Conjunct Jupiter Orb: 04°00' You have energy, dash, fire, enthusiasm, and magnetism. The creative urge is powerful in you. You have the sort of personality that less fortunate mortals pray for, and even if you don't do anything but sit on the side lines of life you give the impression that you could play the game with the best of them if you wanted to. You have mentality and ability of an extraordinary order. This is a condition of luck in life. If you aren't making money through your own efforts then it's being left to you, or in some way put into your hands - through which it speedily flows out again. Mars Trine Uranus Orb: 01°37' You are inventive and mechanically inclined. Electricity, railroads, steel, iron, metals, and mechanics of all sorts are the natural media in which you work, and your highly original turn of mind will find new uses and combinations in connection with all these things. On the purely intellectual side, you are critical and analytical - cold, detached, and impersonal rather than emotional. You love speed and will drive a car, run an airplane or a speed boat at breakneck pace. You are a gambler with safety as well as with finances and ideas and will stake your all on a scheme or a plan the success of which you are convinced. Mars Square Pluto Orb: 05°38' Your energy has a way of getting away from you. You haven't yet learned to instinctively spot your stopping point and thus could wear yourself out through a relentless pursuit of your goals. A certain ruthlessness marks your actions when someone tries to thwart you. When you meet an obstacle, you are likely to force it out of your way without thinking of other people or the consequences of your behavior. At work and home, don't expect others to keep up with your hard-driving pace. To preserve your energy for the future, learn to pace yourself. Consistency and persistence bring you more success than sudden bursts of frenetic energy. Horoscope of Birth Page 12 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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. Jupiter is in the same sign with Mars, you follow opportunity with energy, dash, enthusiasm and courage, take long chances and play your cards wide open. Jupiter in Cancer This position causes you to see opportunity along lines that promote security and luxury, and is therefore an excellent business, money-making position. You aren't grasping, but you are careful, because your wants are comparatively great, and you strive in every way you can to satisfy them. The final end of opportunity is to you a pleasantly furnished home with all the trimmings of luxury, and one way or another you will generally have it. You will not see opportunity along lines that jeopardize this, and play your hand close to your chest, even when you may appear to be daring. You have just as much regard for the security and comfort of others as you have for your own, and thus are generous, charitable and openhanded with what you possess. Home, children, friends are important, and in gratifying this side of your ego, you are likely to become a substantial and respectable pillar of the society whose niceties you value and want for your own. Jupiter Sextile Saturn Orb: 09°13' You have in this aspect the best possible insurance against want and poverty for no matter how bad things may be, you always seem to get what you need. When everyone else is broke you can fish a dollar out of acme place. In a similar way, when you're broke, someone or some thing will come to your rescue. Even in an otherwise weak horoscope this aspect is so strong that it takes the edge from the worst cuts of life, holding up your head and your fortunes, and giving you, in varying degrees, dignity and security which by careful and conservative expenditures you can make into wealth. You are an excellent manager of funds and can stretch a dollar to the limit without being penurious or petty. You simply know how to get your money's worth, and, being utterly fair and honorable, are just as willing to give fair value when you're on the selling end. You won't fleece others, and you won't be fleeced yourself. You can deal with large numbers of people and, having an eminent sense of justice in abstract as well as practical matters, you make a fine judge, minister, social worker, or executive. Whether you are prominent and powerful or quiet and reserved, your character wins you respect and a certain prestige and authority in whatever sphere you move. This is an aspect of maturity and may not be felt before the thirtieth year in any except the security sense. Under it you will develop steadily and forcefully as you grow older and in middle and later life feel the stability that you derive from these two most powerful of the planets. Jupiter Trine Uranus Orb: 05°37' This is merely a contributing aspect and has little force of its own. It adds stability to the Horoscope of Birth Page 13 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 Square Pluto Orb: 09°38' Your optimism and faith in yourself are high but unrealistic. You are apt to set your sights on the mountaintop without perceiving or thinking about the rocks and brambles which litter the path to your goal. When you assess your strengths, you are likely to add up a series of nonexistent ones while overlooking those which are actually at your disposal. In the same manner, you do your best to avoid any situation or person who may challenge you to live up to your high self-esteem - the very thing you need to build a strong image based on fact, not fiction. A willingness to accept full responsibility for your actions, some degree of compromise and a more practical attitude are the keys of your success. 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 is in the same sign with your Venus, your defensive attitude toward emotional experience makes for apparent coolness in low, and difficulty through the emotions and human relations; you are conservative in finance, and generally "lucky-in-cards-unlucky-in-love". Saturn in Leo This position directs your personality to defend itself against life as dramatically as possible. If the total personality is aggressive, you will find self-justification in the public eye. Nothing will justify you in your own eyes if you aren't attracting attention. Not for you the obscure job with the big pay: you'd rather lead the parade for nothing, and may even pay for the privilege. People who are eager to subscribe to books that print their name very likely have Saturn in Leo. The need for approval and the public gaze is linked to the ego-protective centers, and the limelight becomes the Sun of Life. If the total personality is passive rather than active, the need for attention is no less present, but you may get it in a variety of ways. Invalidism is a favorite; some variety of physical ailment with a neurotic background is frequent in this sign, and if you think there's anything the matter with you, it's worth analyzing yourself, or being analyzed, to see if it isn't a means of stealing the show of your private life. If the dramatic urge leads into constructive channels, you will go far and high; but the danger is that, loving drama, acclaim and glory for their own sake, you will seek them regardless of aim and motive. Be careful of hurting others in your attack on life; be careful also that you don't hurt yourself. Too much limelight blisters the skin, and it is possible with this position to be too smart for your own good. Horoscope of Birth Page 14 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 Scorpio Uranus in Scorpio causes your genius to work through deep wells of the subconscious and makes for tremendous power for good or bad. You are angel or devil - or, at different times, both. Your personal magnetism is powerful, and you seek for your originality personal tribute from the world or from individuals. You can be content with the worship (or fear) of a small circle and can, because of this, be capable of limiting the scope of your great powers. Love, or sex, is important to you; you rule others if you control yourself, and if you don't, you are the slave to others, or to your own instincts, which are very powerful. You are capable of gratifying your need for power by identifying yourself with machinery, and are often successful in mechanical or engineering fields, where you are able to feel your own strength in the strength of the machine you make or operate. You love speed and feel at home when moving swiftly. If self-controlled, you are a powerful executive requiring absolute military obedience. Your deep need for self control is manifest in your worship of method, system, efficiency and obedience. You should learn the law of obedience in the abstract, allow your great magnetism to express itself freely without mastering you, and thus have the world at your feet. 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 Sagittarius Sagittarius is symbolized by the Centaur - a mythical half horse / half man, and so we find Neptune in this sign characterized by conflict between the Higher and Lower Selves. There is much interest in religion and mythology. There is the desire to explore, travel, move about, try new ideas, experiment with new ways of seeing and feeling things. But just as there is an emphasis on "Spiritual" things, so is there an emphasis on Sensuality. There may be considerable prophetic ability, and there are many inspirations and vivid dreams. The intuition is highly developed and generally dependable in the professions of journalism and teaching. Neptune in Sagittarius is expansive and exuberant, even extravagant. The Spirit of Adventure is high, and there is deep interest in new areas such as parapsychology, esoteric healing methods, mind-drugs, etc. Neptune Sextile Pluto Orb: 00°18' 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 betterment of all. Artistic and/or psychic talents are possible. Horoscope of Birth Page 15 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 Libra Your search for ultimate meaning is connected to one of the noblest constructs of civilized society - its sense of justice. Your mind is finely tuned to other people and their needs, and you realize that the only way an individual can be completely free is through the highest application of the law. Discrepancies in legal matters, which seem to ensure a particular freedom but in fact limit it, are instantly spotted by you. Empathy pervades your interaction with other people, and you cannot be totally satisfied while those around you are in bondage of any type. The misuse or abuse of the law will draw down your special ire, and your life's energy is likely to be concentrated on fighting for other people's rights. Horoscope of Birth Page 16 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 4, 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, Current Transits Page 17 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 23, 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.

Apr 25, 2014 - Neptune Opposite Mercury There can be confusion of the senses, inaccuracy of thought, errors of judgment due to erroneous sense impressions and improper application of logic. You tend to believe what you want to believe and, despite evidence, to refuse to look facts in the face; you seek escape. There is danger of developing bad habits.

Current Transits Page 19 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Aug 11, 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. Aug 27, 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. Sep 12, 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. Sep 24, 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. Oct 3, 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. Current Transits Page 20 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Oct 13, 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 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. Oct 14, 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. Oct 19, 2014 - Jupiter Conjunct Venus This transit is only slightly felt, contributing mildly to social and business success and promoting good will. Sometimes accompanies marriage or engagement, but isn't enough alone to bring these about. You are sure of your emotional reactions, which may or may not lead into progressive paths. There is self-will in love, less from intensity of passion than from mental firmness of purpose. You find expanded romantic and social aspirations which can range all the way from high idealism to self-indulgence and social climbing. You take yourself seriously and ought to make sure that you aren't stressing superficial things. Expect financial gain with some danger of extravagance; expenses heavy. Oct 31, 2014 - 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. Nov 4, 2014 - Saturn Square Saturn This lower (waxing) square comes seven years after the Saturn-Saturn conjunction and should mark a period of achievement in line with the lessons learned seven years earlier. The choices made then, if wise, have led to accomplishment; a minor cycle has been completed; and you should be moving forward smoothly toward a point of maximum attainment to be reached in about another seven years. Some shift in method - but no change in basic direction - may be indicated here. Changes, both in the material world and in thinking, are important and should be related carefully to basic goals. Some temperament needs fighting down; the personal tends to intrude over the practical and must be put firmly back in its place. Current Transits Page 21 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF Nov 5, 2014 - Mars Opposite Mars Ideas are numerous but likely to prove more bother than they are worth; this not a good time for starting new ventures. Aim to quell restlessness, and stick to the line established about a year before, giving it perhaps some new twist, but not deviating from it in any radical particular. Temperament runs high; emotions are likely to be troublesome; self-will is an obstacle. It is a good time to go away on a vacation. But it is a bad time to try to get away from any established thing permanently. In the life check-up, these periods, recurring about every two years, mark tension, stress, new obligations connected with established things - sometimes a break or change which, in all probability, did not work out as well as it was expected to and forced a new start again a year or less later. Nov 12, 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.

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. Dec 16, 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. Dec 29, 2014 - 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 Current Transits Page 22 Heaven Knows What Olivia SF 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 21, 2015 - Mars Opposite 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. Jan 27, 2015 - Jupiter Conjunct Venus This transit is only slightly felt, contributing mildly to social and business success and promoting good will.
