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 Aries
In Aries the Sun gives much mental energy and quick wit, Natives of this sign are natural leaders, more or less headstrong or impulsive, ambitious, full of enterprise and new ideas. They do not like to be under the direction of a master and are inclined to be fiery and quick tempered, quick to resent abuse or imposition, but forgiving and do not hold a grudge long. Their great love of freedom and justice, coupled with their enthusiasm and self-will, makes them liable to go to extremes through indignation, hasty speech or lack of discretion. They possess penetrating will power are persistent, determined and not easily discouraged. Are philosophical by nature, admire scientific thought and are at their best when at the head of things, such as director, instructor, superintendent or manager. Mars is the planetary ruler of the sign Aries.
Longitudinal Aspects
Sun Quincunx Moon
Energetic and driven; ambitious; possesses qualities that enhance relationships, including loyalty and sensitivity; mutual understanding; strong maternal instinct; domestic; cheerfully serene; enjoys good health; musically inclined; prosperous, especially where a good aspect from Jupiter exists.
Sun Semisquare Venus (Ruler)
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 Semisextile Saturn
People obsessed with domination and control, for this reason they are often atheists because they cannot stand the idea of a higher power than themselves.
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 Trine Saturn
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 Semisextile Pluto
The native is resilient to change, able always to make the best of circumstances. He is emotionally sensitive, and able to influence others subtly. The conjunction cannot be considered a favorable aspect in this case, since the Moon is in its fall in Scorpio. Moodiness and depression may appear, due to vulnerability to strong emotional drives. The individual will be psychologically keyed into powerful interpersonal emotional interactions at an unconscious level.
Moon Semisquare Chiron
** Turbulent Aspect ** This signifies a strong desire for marriage and children, someone who is highly intuitive and resourceful. It is a female Romance Aspect, and if the native is a woman, all she thinks about is her Prince Charming or meeting one. She feels completely unfulfilled without one in her life.
Mercury (Detriment, Fall) Sextile Mars (Detriment)
Lightening-fast mind reflexes; energized respiratory capabilities, great for runners; mind over body in that the mind controls the muscles, this pairing provides the ability to quickly learn complicated physical routines such as dance steps; military tactician.
Mercury (Detriment, Fall) Semisextile Jupiter

Mercury (Detriment, Fall) Sextile Uranus
Public communication; famous reflexes and respiration, natural athletic ability; naturally skilled with computer software; adept at astrology, chess; great depth perception and eye-body coordination; mind with extraordinary spatial relations capacity, very adept at visualization in the mind, great mind for designing, architecture, mechanical engineering, hairdressing, painting, and sculpting.

Jupiter Square Chiron
** Turbulent Aspect ** 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.
Saturn Square Pluto
As with other negative Pluto aspects; jealousy, lust, dominance. The native strives for personal power and may withdraw himself from normal human contacts in order to achieve this aim. Destructive tendencies. Frustrated drives. Dishonesty regarding emotional interaction. Miscalculations of desire.
