Moon Trine Saturn (Ruler)

This signifies a determined, strong-willed person with enormous drive. It is the sign of the bulldozer who will run over anyone is sight to meet an objective, but who is often successful because of this drive and determination. Generally unorthodox, the native neither seeks nor accepts advice from others, and is happiest when being the boss in all relationships. This is the IMMOVABLE ASPECT, and the natives usually are the most self-willed and controlling persons in the zodiac. The upside is that they are very often genuinely faithful, are good providers, and are responsible to their family. (Note this aspect is the same as Sun/Saturn but more emotionally charged.)

Moon Semisquare Neptune

Threatens fraud, deception or slander; difficulties through things ruled by the house Neptune occupies; misfortune through the opposite sex, delays or obstacles in regard to marriage in a male chart; desire to gratify the tastes which leads to injury of the health, especially if either is in a water sign.

Mercury Square Saturn (Ruler)

The subject has great ambitions and desires for activity, success and mastery in lines coming under the Third, Sixth and Tenth House affairs, but his efforts are attended with delay, disappointments, obstacles and limitation, and in some cases he meets with criticism and opposition, open or secret, and his efforts are frequently thwarted and hindered or his plans overthrown. Encounters difficulty in acquiring an education and in all matters pertaining to books and studies. The retentive or memorizing faculty needs developing even though memory of events is strong. The aspect signifies great sorrow through death of brethren for father, probably both, or their ill health, separation or estrangement from them, although not necessarily through quarrels, but more as the result of circumstances. Trouble is occasioned through slander, false reports, forged letters or documents, unfriendly writings, delayed and misunderstood letters, and the subject may himself cause difficulty through these things. The effect on the nature is to make one sarcastic, bitter, impulsive and somewhat dissembling with periods of gloom, pessimism or exasperation, grave anxiety, worry, constant disturbance of the mind, errors or judgment, caused by fear, circumstances, lack of initiative, procrastination and continuos restriction of action. This lead the mind to meditate and endeavor to discover the reason for these undesirable manifestations, and from the attitude one may be prone to seek recourse in the study of Occult subjects and spiritual philosophy, and thus improve his responses to the aspect. If either planet be in or rule the Third or Ninth House it gives and inclination for science and Occult learning, which considerably improves the reaction to this aspect, but still there is liability to loss through failure, theft, fraud and deception; difficulty or loss in employment or thorough lack of employment, poor health often interfering; troubles through neighbors, servants, societies, associations, messengers, travelers, and by things ruled by the sign and house occupied. This is a bad aspect for the teeth, causing decay; also causes slow or poor circulation or digestion, bowel affliction, weakness, obstruction and constipation. People with the aspect or are annoyed with these latter troubles should avoid strong drinks or highly seasoned food.

Jupiter Semisextile Chiron

This is one of the most powerful of all aspects, as this Super Aspect provides the native with a fabulous public image and a commanding presence, which instills confidence and wins trust. It foretells a great destiny and career and can result in noteworthy success, ultimate intuitive genius, and success through charisma in anything ruled by Chiron. No matter how powerful and helpful one aspect is, though, there is no substitute for hard work, determination, and tenacity.

Uranus Opposition Chiron

** Turbulent Aspect ** This is a very powerful and helpful aspect, but unfortunately, it occurs too rarely (about every five years).

Mars (Ruler) Contra-Parallel Pluto

The capacity for violence lies just beneath the surface and often overwhelms the native. Lack of purpose causes inner turbulence and restlessness which may lead to irrational acts. The native has trouble controlling his impulses, and has difficulty living in a structured society. Sadistic tendencies. The native should learn to carefully analyze his reasons for taking actions of any sort.

Jupiter Parallel Saturn (Ruler)

This pairing is that of the two most opposite planets and can produce extreme grace, selflessness and genius; or extreme obsessions paranoia, and dark desires. This is the most complicated aspect to interpret; the native is sometimes enormously successful but is usually unable to handle the power the success brings. So, this aspect ends up making the native a Fallen Angel. Its influences have the strongest of spiritual overtones.

Jupiter Contra-Parallel Pluto

The individual has unrealistic expectation and dissipates a lot of energy on unobtainable or inappropriate goals. His self-opinion fluctuates from over confidence to inadequacy. Overbearing attitude and the tendency to try to force others to conform to his will may compensate inferiority feelings. He has the power to lead but without the charm and popularity of the favorable aspects. Dogmatic, destructive. There will be difficulty or inability to conjoin spiritual insight and training with emotional drives and ambitions. The emotional needs will be expressed contrary to confidence in spiritual realities, while the latter will not be available to assist in difficulties arising the former.
