When I was younger my aunt had this big, illustrated book with all these symbols. I've been trying to find them in English, thinking they were Sabian symbols and finally came across this. She swears by them.They're kind of fatalistic...which I don't really relate to and always find kind of archaic and confusing because I can't relate it to my life.

i checked out the degree of my Sun (26 Sagittarius, also the Galactic centre), and La Volasfera one is "a degree of IMPOTENCE". Charubel one says "A mighty genius; a poet, a painter, or a musician; promises great things, but dies before middle life." (i'm an artist/musician) !!!

Here's my venus

A woman seated in an altitude of grief, her clothes disordered and her hair unkempt, holding some faded flowers in her hands; among the flowers are lilies and roses.

It indicates a person of fateful inclinations and strong passions, whose life will be subject to the influence of the opposite sex, and who, if not extremely cautious in those relations, will suffer injury and perhaps disgrace. It points to one of weak will, but strong feelings which are apt to over-rule reason and experience. It is a degree of SPOLIATION.

Heres' my Sun

6-17 deg Leo A man riding a camel with attendants following. It denotes one who will be noted for his wide and prolonged travels. One whose life will be beset with dangers of a physical nature; one who will leave a humble home and become a prominent figure in a foreign country. The character is stubborn, persevering, very vindictive and revengeful; not ungrateful but never forgetting injuries. The native will be somewhat fond of parade and self-advertisement, and in the end will be highly successful in life. It is a degree of JOURNEYING.

That sounds like my last life! I was wealthy and gorgeous!

North Node
27-28 deg Taurus A man is seen climbing a pole which is set upon an elevation. It signifies one who will aspire after vain things and exert himself to no purpose; whose ambitions are in the clouds and who knows not how to reach them. It is a degree of VAGARY.

My north node is to be a vagary hehe.

Sun
13-14 Sagittarius A quantity of books and papers an disorder. It is the index of a mind given to the study of literature, history and other intellectual pursuits. The literary and scientific taste will be cultivated and trained to useful but somewhat unpopular or novel ends. The memory will be highly retentive, and the imagination lively but well under control. Such an one may become a prolific writer, combining science and invention with a facile power of romantic fancy. A strenuous worker and temperate liver, he will not fail to meet with due distinction. It is a degree of INTELLECT.

A psychic told me to be a writer, but I have no desire to write. She made the lights flicker so I feel like I should believe her but bleh. I hate fiction.

Neptune/Merc
0-1 deg Capricorn A boy and girl standing with arms entwined. It is the index of a mind that is given to duplicity, or at least to dissimulation and diplomacy. There is considerable finesse, and also an extraordinary degree of adaptability in the nature, which will enable it to gain some distinction and even a position of honor. The native may become an ambassador or consul, or otherwise serve as a connecting link between two peoples or nations. In a lower degree, the native will follow more than one occupation at the same time and will in general show considerable versatility. It is a degree of ALTERNATION.

Venus
25-26 deg Capricorn A wide, open seascape on which are distant sailing boats. This symbol denotes a person of calm and thoughtful temperament, a kind, genial and sunny nature, smooth and tranquil manners, and peaceful disposition. When roused to anger, however, he is capable of excessive strength and display of power, and the forces in reserve within him are only to be known under stress and excitation. He is yielding, but cannot be reduced. He is gentle but irresistible. His sympathies are wide and his taste for travel will be marked. It will lead him to distant countries and may be to the pursuit of nautical life. That he will have interests in distant lands is certain. It is a degree of COMPLACENCE.

I've been told I have a reserve of energy and one of my totems reinforces that. One shaman friend of a friend was saying people underestimate me.

Here.. my ascendant along with my north node confirms my life purpose..

A broken wheel lies upon the ground, while a horse grazes near by. It indicates one of small resources, little power of invention, and not much executive ability. The native is very laissez faire, and drifts too easily through life; and this want of direction will be apt to lead him into evil conditions. The native may be fortunate, but it is certain that he will not retain his wealth owing to his own fault. It is a degree of AIMLESSNESS.
