Your basic concerns are material: possessions, security and success. You have the ability to attract money and resources, but  you can't always hang on to it or it doesn't bring you the happiness you expected. Financial success is often negated by extravagance-- you must learn true values. Money will stay with you if you learn to share your wealth with others and not just spend it on yourself. You adore splendor, comfort and opulence. As a child, you should be encouraged to share, and you probably  come from a well-to-do house or have a very successful parent. As you grow,  you attract influential friends. You have a strong will to attain financial independence and, due to your persistence and stability (caused by strong stubbornness), you usually succeed, even if only for a short while.

You have an innate fear of not having what you need, be it physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. You're quiet and mild, but, if  the Sun is afflicted, this is deceptive. As a child, you want to help take care of   your siblings and may have to be encouraged to seek friends outside of the family. The first part of our life will probably be an uphill battle, but as old age approaches, prosperity and prominence increase and your health remains good.

This placement is good for involvement in theater, movies, radio, television, arts, teaching, sports and speculation.  You're attractive to the opposite sex and have many love affairs that are allconsuming while they last.

Sun in the 12th House: Piscean overtones color this placement that indicates what you have brought over from a past life to work out in this life.  You must choose between serving and suffering. Any limitations you face are directly related to the past misuse of power. Your early conditioning may be affected by your father, for good or bad. You can be lonely, even in a crowd, or avoid close relationships. You may lack self-confidence. You can do well in the fields of medicine, psychology, research (especially psychic research), or someone who works with those who are limited or afflicted in some way. Most of your work will be done behind the scenes. If the Sun is afflicted, you may be overly timid or neurotic, or you may want to secretly control others. In your search for power and recognition, your ego may permit entities to use you as a medium. You may have powerful yet unknown secret enemies. You've allowed  your ego and destructive tendencies to have control in past lives and now you must pay your karmic debt either through service or suffering-- the choice is  yours. If the Sun is heavily afflicted, you can be your own worst enemy, but  you can change this if you so desire. KEYNOTE: To transcend.

The Moon in the Signs

Moon in Aries: You're spontaneous, direct, impulsive and enthusiastic, but  you must consciously cultivate patience. You have an aggressive spirit and temper and your reactions and temper are quick. Your judgment may be poor and you often act from feelings, not reason. Your feelings are keen and intense at the moment, but are volatile and quickly changeable. You're original, inventive and have initiative and self-confidence, but you're restless and lack  persistence. You're courageous, but often foolhardy. Self-realization comes from your varied experiences. You're open to new ideas and trust your sense perceptions. You don't tolerate interference and find it difficult to accept discipline and advice making you a better leader than a follower. You hide  your insecurity behind an independent, aggressive exterior. You make friends easily, but your emotional instability often drives them away. You tend to try  to dominate others emotionally but may remain emotionally detached. You tend to take others reactions personally. You excel in positions where quick  decisions are necessary. Your mother, in your eyes, is independent, active, resolute, outspoken and a strong influence. You often experience cuts, burns, fevers and tend to be accident prone. Women may be jealous and need to dominate their partner. Men attract a dominating woman. You have excellent eyesight. Moon in Taurus (Exalted): You're affectionate, timid, sentimental and often blindly faithful. You may lack originality, but you have an accurate memory. You may be narrow-minded, conservative and conventional, finding it almost impossible to break with traditional family ideals and teachings. You must guard against pride, laziness, stubbornness and jealousy. You're determined, want to excel in all you do and stick to your ideas at all costs. You need outside stimulation to set new courses for your life, but once you do (and after completing old projects), you move slowly and steadily ahead. You're fond of music, art, dance and things that make life pleasurable. You want material comforts and possessions, seldom settling for anything less than the  best. You have a pleasant speaking and singing voice, and highly developed senses of taste and touch. You have a well-developed intuition and use sound  judgment and common sense in financial and domestic affairs. Your reactions to sense impressions are slow but steady, and you react instinctively to emotional stimuli. Once you reach a decision, it's difficult to change your mind and you resent interference-- this is the most stable place for the Moon. You seldom lose your temper but explode when you do. You have a close, but not always happy, tie to your mother. You have loyal and lasting relationships and loves. Men attract a loyal partner who encourages his ambitions. You naturally  attract wealth and good things.

Moon in Gemini: You need emotional variety and novelty rather than deep and enduring feelings to the point that you're usually unable to maintain longterm feelings or undivided loyalties. Your mind is changeable, even chaotic at times, but your perceptions are quick, accurate and easily verbalized. You're not very intuitive since your senses and impressions function more on thought and intellect than feelings, allowing you to observe and reason dispassionately. You're shrewd, versatile and adaptable, knowing how to play  up to others. You need to be doing several things at once, often holding two  jobs (at least one in communications), sometimes spreading yourself too thin and creating nervous tension. You like mental and/or physical action and movement. You're restless and always searching for something new: new  residences and trips help satisfy this need. You're more interested in now than the past. You can be reserved, even cold, in personal relationships, often rationalizing your emotions. Women may be superficial and lack domesticity. Men are attractive to an intellectual partner who can fit any social role, but attract high strung, jittery mates. You have a well-developed sense of smell and sure hands but tend to talk unendingly. If the rest of your chart is favorable, you can rationally analyze your emotions, but if the moon is heavily  afflicted, emotions distort reason. Heavy afflictions indicate excessive  vacillation, confusion and superficiality. You need to cultivate perseverance and steadiness. Your ties to relatives are too strong.

Moon in Cancer (Dignified): You're maternal, sympathetic, artistic, creative, dramatic, patriotic (due to love of home), sometimes patronizing and have a meditative mind. You naively trust your feelings, which are deep and intense. You're apprehensive about things outside your control. You hide your true feelings under a hard shell. You have very accurate sense perceptions, but don't often act on them and, when you do, your reactions are slow and uncertain. Since you're very intuitive and often psychic, you're overly sensitive to others emotions and outside conditions, often letting them affect your mood. You're especially close to your home and family, with deep, strong  bonds to your mother that may become a complex. You often make changes in  your life and travel, but you need a home base to come home to. You're easily  imposed upon, then resent it, even though you like taking care of others and understand their feelings. You're thrifty and careful with your money and possessions and hate to see anything wasted or abused. You're more romantic than passionate and are usually good at poetry, music and acting.

sensitive and attract a motherly mate. Women are too easily hurt and tend to dominate at home. If afflicted, you tend to smother and/or dominate your kids.

You have a keen enthusiastic interest in life and you're fond of children, sports and all entertainment, especially sophisticated types. You love luxury and may be self-indulgent. You want your children and your home to be a showcase of   beauty and good taste. You have accurate sense perceptions and can make quick, accurate assessments of people and their motivations, but may lack  objectivity in your emotional perspective. You stay uninvolved unless you're personally concerned, but once you decide to act, you resent interference and criticism. If afflicted, you can be conceited, self-gratifying, overbearing and ostentatious, which would drive others away if you weren't so sincere in your efforts to improve yourself. Your education may be colored by your feelings.  You're susceptible to flattery. You tend to dominate the domestic front. You're sexually magnetic and charming to the opposite sex.

You have a steady and practical mental attitude and analyze and criticize all sense perceptions. You do well in any type of diagnostic work.  You're shrewd with a good business sense and meticulous attention to detail.  You seek knowledge to use it and apply it and make an excellent teacher. You have many acquaintances, short trips and life changes. You're interested in science, occult matters, diet, health and hygiene. You need to share your experiences and insights with others, but you're not curious about their personal life, just about work and practical matters. You act superior

intellectually due to a deep inferiority complex. You tend to worry and have a nervous disposition which may cause digestive problems.

Men don't want emotional demands and their mate is nonclinging. Moon in Libra: You're gentle, courteous, charming, ambitious and diplomatic. Your sweetness hides an iron fist. Your home is important to you and is usually a place of beauty and scene of social activity. You see life as a chance at self-discovery through trial and error. You use your senses more on a mental level, evaluating data but not analyzing or criticizing. You tend to live for the moment, but must consciously develop self-reliance since you're too easily influenced by others. You have an unconscious desire for peace at any  price, to the point of not standing up for your principles since you want to be liked by all (especially if Mars is weak): you need to purify your motives for action. If the moon is afflicted by Mars, you fight blindly for your beliefs but unintelligently. You're very sensitive to your partner's reactions and attitudes and your health may suffer in any inharmonious relationship. You're at your  best working in partnerships and seek shared experiences at every  opportunity. If the moon is afflicted, you depend too much on others for emotional security. Your judgment is more important than acting on your ideas. You're fond of music, poetry and arts, but like to appreciate it more than participate in it. You think your mother placed great emphasis on your manners and behavior and developing an appreciation of beauty. In a males chart, he seeks a refined, sociable, attractive and intelligent mate, but usually  his mate will want to be in charge. Women are sociable and like to be surrounded by beauty.

You can be too dominating and possessive of your children (especially a male child) or may have been

dominated by a parent, usually your mother. You'll sacrifice a great deal out of  kindness and your latent willpower is often used for the betterment of  mankind. You're passionate about life and sex and use your sense as instruments of pleasure rather than knowledge. You have tremendous observational abilities, shrewd insight and a deep, hidden personality. If the Moon is afflicted, you can exhibit sexual excess, inhibition, perversity or alcoholism. Learn to forgive and forget. Women may be promiscuous and selfindulgent. Men seek a sensual partner they can possess, but, if the Moon is afflicted, the mate can be possessive and jealous. Moon in Sagittarius: You have clear, accurate sense impressions and acute  judgment-- your mind rejects any irrelevant facts to avoid confusion. You have a lofty, idealistic emotional nature and high goals, but often lack a realistic sense of life, being socially naive, reacting to others as if they were a part of   you. You need activity and physical exercise and want to do everything with everybody. You enjoy watching and participating in sports.

Moon in Capricorn (Detriment): You're conservative, reserved, prudent, cautious and practical, but all these can be carried to the extreme. You tend to  be unemotional, unsympathetic and usually unhappy. You have common sense and strong ambitions. If the Moon is well aspected, leadership ability 

combined with persistent effort can earn you a high position. You want to be recognized as an important and powerful person and, if the Moon is afflicted,  you disregard others' feelings to gain that recognition. Your feelings are strong and crystallized and you're critical of others despite an oversensitivity to real or imagined slights. Your mother, who was traditional, conservative, practical and efficient, was a very strong influence who encouraged you to succeed in all endeavors. You identify with material rather than spiritual values. You may  have fanatical or obsessive ideas or causes. You work hard, especially to gain financial security and status, and are cautious in money matters. You react quickly to your sense impressions, often with anger and antagonism. You make enemies easily, often giving you a bad reputation. You can be morbid,  brooding, melancholy and you're shy and insecure as to your own worth.

If you become frustrated, you either begin wandering restlessly or seek spiritual enlightenment. You see experience as a proving ground for yourself and react to that experience on both practical and ideal levels. Your demand for personal freedom leads to a fear of emotional involvement or unusual family  relationships.

You're likely to be ingenious, inventive, original and scientific-- often you're considered ahead of your time. You must consciously control a tendency to be too aloof, impersonal and erratic.

 Women may be eccentric and experimental. Men seek a liberated mate (especially in sex) and their mate is stable and fixed and must be coaxed to change her mind. You see your mother as a friend, companion and humanitarian who raised you to stand on your own and is unorthodox in her role as a mother. Moon in Pisces: You're quiet, shy, gentle, easy-going, unworldly, sympathetic to the underdog and a dreamer. If the Moon is well aspected, you have true vision.

Your relationships may suffer due to supersensitivity  and you tend to wallow in self-pity, but you need to feel sheltered and loved.  You like beauty, harmony and comfort and suffer on all levels when faced with adversity. Your senses are often fooled by over-romanticism and blind optimism. You're often unreliable and easily discouraged and depressed  because you change your mind too often. You're not overly strong physically  and, if afflicted, you can be neurotic, psychotic or irrationally dominated by   your subconscious. Obstacles may slow your success and you can be selfindulgent. You're very psychic, making you feel psychologically vulnerable  which causes you to emotionally withdraw. You need to strengthen your will to resist the negative energy of others. Men want a devoted, sympathetic, sentimental and affectionate mate who plays an important role in his private life but may be in the shadows in his career. Women may have health problems due to emotional excess, may marry late and have a silent magnetism that attracts men. You see your mother as sympathetic but very  involved with her own life and you either over-idealize or underestimate her.

The Moon in the Houses Moon in the 1st House: You're emotional, sensitive, changeable and have a strong imagination. Your mood depends on the environment you're in and  your actions depend on your mood. You can be successful in public life once  you overcome an innate shyness. You're so eager to please due to a need for recognition you often allow others to use you and then become resentful if   your efforts are not appreciated. Your self-awareness and self-expression are

strongly colored by your emotions, early environment and family matters and are too easily influenced by others. You can be psychic or a medium. You have close ties to your mother but, if the Moon conjuncts the Ascendant, you may  have a mother complex. You're physically active and, if in a cardinal or mutable sign, you may be restless. You often lack long-range purpose and direction. In a male's chart, there's too much femininity.

 well in business related to food, the home or real estate. Your financial prospects are usually better in the latter part of your life. To find the inner peace you want, you must move beyond personality and ego. Moon in the 5th House: Your imagination and emotions influence your romantic attractions and your search for pleasure. Unless the fixed signs are prominent, you'll have many love affairs and, if the Moon is afflicted, your family tends to interfere in your love life. You have great charm and a poetic and dramatic imagination. You're able to use your creative and artistic talent to teach young children, usually getting fast results.

You'll have many children, especially if the Moon is in a water sign, and you can be a good parent, although women tend to bind their children to them. You may be successful in your early life but, if afflicted, emotional impulsiveness may lead to unwise gambling or speculations. Moon in the 6th House: Both work and health fluctuate according to your emotional state. You're considerate of others, especially employees, but, unless the Moon is in a fixed sign, you have many changes of occupation or have difficulty finding or keeping stable employees. You expect others to work   just as hard as you do and do well in industries that serve some public need since you have a strong inclination to mother and serve others. You're usually  a good cook but must learn good dietary habits since it directly affects your health. Don't eat when you're overtired and/or emotionally disturbed. You have an interest in health and hygiene, especially in the home. Your health is  weak as a child and your nervousness may manifest as psychosomatic illness or stomach troubles.

 with the public in business. If the Moon is afflicted, your mate is sensitive, moody and often unstable. Moon in the 8th House: You're sensitive to others and to social demands and are very psychic. Although you must learn to sacrifice your feelings and learn to live impersonally, using your personality to help others with their resources, you may allow yourself to be too vulnerable.

You're often involved in handling others' or the public's money. Moon in the 9th House: You have a strong recognition of the need for spiritual and moral values in your domestic life and you have a deep emotional attachment to the values you learned as a child. This may limit your spiritual understanding for if you change your religion, parental disapproval follows. If the Moon is afflicted, you may have a narrow-minded, dogmatic outlook. Your convictions are based on emotion rather than reason and your personality is built on experience. Since you're receptive to superconscious realms, you may have flashes of inspired, intuitive insight and your dreams and visions can be very important. You're able to study serious subjects deeply, but tend to learn more unconsciously or by osmosis. You're a natural teacher in almost any field. You love to travel and often settle far from your place of birth, or even emigrate. Moon in the 10th House: You feel a need to achieve prominence and recognition, which may lead to a scandal, damaging the reputation you value so much. On the other hand, you're highly self-protective due to a lack of a private life since you're usually prominent in the public eye-- possibly in politics if well-aspected. You need to feel socially useful, often working in some capacity with the public, women or in fields related to women. Your career, which will probably change several times, is helped by the influence of   women. Your parents are generally well-to-do and they want the same things for their children. This is especially true of your mother. Moon in the 11th House: You need companionship for your emotional  well-being so you like to join groups and societies. You make friends easily,

many through family associations, but must guard against superficiality. Many  of your friends, especially women, are helpful, but if the Moon is heavily  afflicted, your friends may use you since you used them in the past and few of  them are really close friends. Your home is usually the place for group activities. Your goals are varied and changeable. Your views are objective, detached and unprejudiced. Moon in the 12th House: You have a psychological need for seclusion to restore your emotional sanity. You need to firmly develop your intuition and good imagination since you're so open to the feelings and instincts of others and tend to live in your world of  imagination. If the Moon is afflicted, you may be lonely, neurotic or  become involved in a scandal through women. If heavily afflicted,  you may be institutionalized due to mental illness. Suffering you experience through your mother is usually repayment of a karmic debt. You must serve those who are limited or afflicted in some way  or you'll find yourself facing limitations and restrictions. You can  be shy and easily hurt but you're reluctant to communicate your feelings. Hypnosis may be dangerous for you. If the Moon rules the fifth, seventh or eighth house or is strongly aspected to Venus,  you'll experience emotional suffering through secret love affairs.  You tend to be self-sacrificing and may become resentful of  imagined slights. You don't like new or strange surroundings-once you settle down, you tend to remain there.

Mercury in the Signs Mercury in Aries: You're able to produce original thoughts and think  rapidly, but you may make decisions or change your views suddenly and impulsively. Your thinking tends to be decisive, and your first choice is usually  right unless Mercury is heavily afflicted. You have good foresight, although  you don't always use it, and want to be first in all you do, finding enjoyment in competitive thinking like debating. Without mental stimulation, you may  experience mental strain or restlessness. Your viewpoint is often too personal- you see things as you want them to be and not as they are. You're outspoken and quick-witted and can be intellectually egotistical and headstrong. You must consciously combat your impatience with opposition or delay and not act  before thinking. Unless fixed signs are prominent, you may not always follow  through what you start. You find it easy to express yourself and to improvise,  but may use nervous energy cuttingly or sarcastically.

afflicted by Jupiter. Mercury in Taurus: Your thinking and decision making are based on what has practical, material and financial applications.

You're stubborn, persistent and have definite preferences. If afflicted, you may be intellectually obstinate, opinionated and materialistic. You'll fight or argue only to protect your security, especially  financial interests.

You have the ability to write and speak  clearly, rapidly, accurately and easily. Your mind is able to concentrate on two things at once, but if it's kept too busy too long, your nerves become frazzled.  Your highly geared nervous system is unable to shut out external stimuli and  you need lots of quiet and solitude to maintain your sanity. You're intensely  curious about everything. You often spread yourself too thin and may lack the ability to follow through on projects you start. You often have difficulty  making decisions since you can see all points of view and often change your mind. Your mental originality finds new and surprising solutions to emergency situations and old problems. You often develop your mind at the expense of your physical body. Your need for change and novelty can cause  you to be superficial. You tend to jump to conclusions due to the quickness of   your mental processes. If heavily afflicted, you may talk incessantly about trivial matters, annoying others. Mercury in Cancer: Your mind is retentive and your thinking creative, but it's easily influenced by others' emotional appeals. You often have trouble thinking objectively since emotions are always involved and may make you tend to feel sorry for yourself. You're impressionable, changeable, very 

emotional and too easily swayed by your senses and the surrounding atmosphere. Once you make a decision, you stick to it-- arguments make you stubborn and others should use praise and kindness to change your mind rather than logic. Your mental processes occur unconsciously but manifest as conscious intent. You have a good memory but tend to learn more subliminally than through books. You cling tenaciously to your opinions, but they may change from day to day. You take everything said to or around you personally and find it difficult to forget any slight. You're tactful, diplomatic and a good, sympathetic listener. You have good business ability, but much of   your thoughts are centered on your family and home rather than business.  You have flashes of intuition but may also have irrational worries, phobias or  be narrow-minded.

You value ideas that have practical use for achieving financial success and status. Professional and financial success come through specialized skills and education. You're work oriented and usually shy in social situations. Your speech and writing are eloquent since  you usually insist on proper grammar, spelling and punctuation. You may be proficient in languages. You have strong common sense and want your surroundings to be orderly and efficient, especially at work. You'd do great in

detailed scientific work and research because you insist on a level of accuracy  others think absurd.

You have an interest in diet, health and hygiene. You must control a tendency to categorize everything and everybody. Mercury in Libra: You have good reasoning power but may lack mental application.

 you feel everyone must earn success. You're willing to work hard and sacrifice to succeed, but if afflicted, you may use unscrupulous means to achieve your success, causing your own downfall. If unevolved, prestige and status become important. You value family, pride and honor and have a strong sense of duty.  You are conservative in business and politics, but if you allow your attitudes to  become too rigid, your joints and bones may over-crystalize. Your dignified manner can make you appear cold and austere. You're able to accept orders from superiors, and expect those below you to do the same, but don't allow   your love of power and desire for mastery over others to get out of hand.  You're careful, calculating and a good organizer, but you can also be selfish and egotistical. If unafflicted, you have persistence and strength, but if  afflicted, you can be serious, solitary and suspicious, giving you a feeling of  loneliness and limitation that can be overcome by giving of yourself. You need to develop tolerance, sensitivity and a sense of humor. The test of Saturn in Capricorn lies in learning proper use of power. Saturn in Aquarius: Your mind is impersonal, original and scientific and  you're mentally ambitious, often working hard to create new ideas or find new  applications in scientific or mathematical fields that will bring you distinction and service. You have good powers of concentration that you use to achieve objectives once you determine them. You're level-headed and independent,  but if afflicted, you can be cunning, obstinate and vindictive. Social relationships are very important to you and you're often involved in highly  structured social organizations. If well aspected, you have a sense of justice and responsibility in these relationships, but if afflicted, you may be selfish or domineering, expecting everyone to play by your rules, or you may be cold and emotionally insensitive. Impartial truth is of the utmost importance and it the  basis for any advice that you give. If highly evolved, you're able to see all issues in light of the universal laws. You're able to quiet your mind and focus steady  attention in order to develop intuitive faculties, but you must orient yourself  to universal goals. This may be difficult if afflicted, since you resent doing things that don't please you. The test of Saturn in Aquarius is one of  responsibility on all levels. Saturn in Pisces: You have an overactive, fearful imagination that can cause neuroses and anxieties. If afflicted, you can be paranoid, excessively   worrisome and fretful and too regretful over past mistakes/misfortunes which can result in institutionalization if taken too far. You must learn to objectively  criticize and self-analyze past mistakes so you can release them and move on constructively after learning from them. You take life too seriously and react

emotionally, often identifying personally with others' problems. You tend to  become trapped in memories of the past and have difficulty dealing with the demands of the present. You tend to underestimate your own self-worth and, if afflicted, must avoid a tendency to be filled with self-pity. You need quiet and solitude at times in order to tap inner resources, but you must actively  participate in affairs of the world to avoid excessive introversion. You can be emotionally understanding, humble and willing to work hard for those less fortunate. You may possibly have insight into the psychological make-up of  others. If well aspected, you're capable of deep meditation and profound spiritual understanding. You often work behind the scenes in large institutions of medicine, education and government. The test of Saturn in Pisces is one of severance: let go and let God.

Your shrewdness in business and buying enables you to save

money for security in your old age, but you can be stingy and miserly. Possessions usually have lasting value, like land or art. If well aspected, financial security and easy acquisition of wealth in later years is due to prudence and far-sightedness in business. Your financial matters are orderly  and sensible, but if afflicted, you may be materialistic, possessive and selfish.  You may gain financially through your father, employer or those in authority.  You're able to attract money, but unless you learn a lesson in values, you're apt to lose it as fast as it comes in.

You often establish friendships with older, serious, career-minded people who help you mature. Your single minded concentration on objectives and reserved nature make it hard to get truly close to anyone. You need respect from peers more than love. If afflicted, you and your friends use each other for personal gain.
