Planet Positions
Aspects
Planetary positions are calculated using a noon reference time. Houses, the Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, and IC are not shown. The Moon's exact position may vary depending on the actual birth time.
Q Sun in Pisces
In Pisces the Sun generally gives a kind and loving nature, confiding, honest, amiable, sympathetic and especially kind to defenseless animals and people in distress. There is sometimes a sense of blessedness, or of being protected by the forces of nature, which either the native or those around him sense. Neat, particular and a lover of order and completeness; modest, often timid and lacking self-confidence. As a rule, Pisceans and industrious, methodical and logical in their processes; idealistic, imaginative, inspirational; often gifted with mediumistic faculty and usually fond of secret, occult of psychic investigation. The Pisces is retiring and humble. Neptune is the planetary ruler of the sign Pisces.
Longitudinal Aspects
Sun Semisquare Venus
As Venus is never more than 48 degrees from the Sun, the "combust" and semi-square are the only adverse aspects Venus can from to Sol. Neither is a very important aspect of itself, but at times may make the native extravagant, overfond of pleasure and luxury, amorous and mutable in the affections. Some delay or misfortune in love affairs and in dealing with the opposite sex. Loss through speculation extravagance, or carelessness.
Sun Trine Pluto
A person of tremendous will-power; desire for power and a willingness to do what it takes to obtain it--even at the expense of ethics; a competitor; a person gifted with the skills to excel in things ruled by Pluto, including large-scale enterprises, politics; seldom a follower, single-minded in the pursuit of set goals; often self-centered, with a "me-first" attitude; second best is not an option; highly successful; tendency toward strong sexual attraction.
Moon (Ruler) Trine Jupiter
This is a Super Aspect and the Wisdom Aspect; the native is attracted to seeking the truth. When the aspect is an enhancement, the native usually finds truth in Judeo-Christian values. When the aspect is not an enhancement, the native is usually attracted to non-Judeo-Christian ideas. Generally, the native is highly responsible, faithful, and peace loving, but willing to fight and die for a cause. (Note this is the same interpretation as the Sun/Jupiter except with the moon the emotional side is amplified.)
Moon (Ruler) Square Saturn
Indicates that the person is poor, or loses his money and becomes so, and has a hard struggle to make both ends meet. He is earnest and ambitious, but his plans do not materialize as expected; a hard worker but generally receives little gain; usually fails in business though careful and persevering; unlooked for obstacles, delays, disappointments, rebuffs and reversals constantly arise, coupled with lack of opportunities and unfavorable circumstances at the critical or needed times. It is an unfortunate aspect for marriage, yet if the planets are in common signs, usually marries more than once. A bad aspect for speculation and such thing as Saturn rules by nature, also by sign and house it occupies in the chart. The native meets with persecution, slander or scandal; disapproval of seniors, parents or employers; difficulties and sorrows through parents, property and possessions. Sorrow through death of young people and mother. Temporary derangements of the health, colds, falls and accidents. The native should refrain from strong physics and employ healthful exercises. This aspect affects the disposition, causing the subject to become somewhat selfish, subtle, careful of his own interests, given to periods of worry, anxiety, doubt, mistrust in self, gloom and despondency. A good aspect f Sun, Jupiter, Mars or Venus will help to offset the severity of the above.
