Hah, no, I just want to learn to read Solar Return charts better. I used the interpretation guide on Cafe Astrology, which said that what's most important is:

-The sign of your Solar Return Ascendent (for me, for 09/10, that's Leo)...and where the planet it rules falls in your Solar Return Chart (that would be the Sun, falling in the Solar Return 1st house)...the interpretations on Cafe Astrology make it sound as if this is less about solitude than about self-image and personal magnetism

-where your Solar Return ascendent falls in your natal chart (mine falls in my 7th house--my SR ascendent is in Leo, and I have both Cancer and Leo in my natal 7th, both Leo and Virgo in my natal 8th)

-where your Solar Return Moon falls in your Solar Return chart (mine falls in Taurus in my SR 11th house)

-aspects between your Solar Return Sun, Moon, and other planets (as in a natal chart)

I've just started working with this, and I read my SR charts for 07/08 and 08/09, and found them very accurate. The charts on astro.com are very easy to read, because they show aspects and house overlays between the Solar Return and natal charts.

This bday yr the sun is in my 5th house of relationships, fun, creativity, children and recreation, along with Mercury and vertex.

What interesting about that is that this yr its in the sign of Gemini, a double-bodied sign. I read somewhere that can mean 2 of whatever that house rules, so i could possibly be having 2 r/s, so we'll see

I've also got my Moon in the 7th house, which is ruled by Leo

Venus & Mars are occupying my 4th house

And this is my own interpretation, but I've also got Neptune & Jupiter in my 1st house, where the ASC is ruled by Aquarius...ive interpreted having Jupiter in the 1st house as the expansion of the self...but also the expansion of oneself to include another, perhaps even to the exclusion of everyone else...

- my SR AC was in Aquarius, and it fell on my 6th house in my natal chart;
- my SR AC ruler was in the SR chart's 1st house, unaspected (except some minor aspects like quintiles and such);

- my bf's SR AC was in Cancer, and it fell on his 5th house in his own natal chart;
- his SR AC ruler was in the SR chart's 10th house, trine Pluto and square AC;
