"Imagination is more important than knowledge." Albert Einstein

 

What follows is an exact copy of Albert Einstein's Western astrological birth chart interpretation from an excellent licensed astrological software program I have on my computer.  Keep in mind that this is just a report so it cannot weigh the importance of different factors or blend together all of the subtle nuances that come into play when interpreting a symbolic astrology chart.  There are MANY more astrological techniques that come in to play when interpreting an astrology chart but as far as reports go this is a pretty good one.

 

In this report you will read, "The astrological factor that the interpretation is based on is also given."   You can read the whole astrological report yourself but I want to point out some of the astrological factors from the report that point to Einstein's amazingly imaginative, intuitive, innovative but also serious and deep mind.  You will notice that Mercury and Jupiter, the planets associated with the mind, are seen often in the following astrological factors.  The 3rd house and 9th house are also associated with the mind.  Uranus is associated with inventiveness while Neptune and the Moon are associated with intuition and imagination.  Click on any of the factors below to go to that spot in the report.

    The interpretation of your astrology chart begins on the

following page.

 

    You will find that the interpretation of your chart is

written in simple language, uncluttered by astrological jargon.

If a statement appears to contradict another statement, then you

exhibit these opposite qualities at different times in your

life. For example, a statement that you are highly sociable and

gregarious and a statement that you prefer solitude seemingly

contradict each other; this means that you vacillate, and need

both sociability and solitude at different times.

 

    The astrological factor that the interpretation is based on

is also given. The astrological factor is given for the benefit

of astrologers and students of astrology. If you are not a

student of astrology, then obviously the factor will not be

meaningful to you, and you can ignore it.

 

    If you find this interpretation of your birth chart

interesting and informative, you might want to discuss your

birth chart with a professional astrologer to learn more about

the astrological influences on your life.

               Chapter 1: General Characteristics

 

     Your fundamental needs, values, and orientation towards

life are symbolized by the four astrological elements. Each

person has their own unique balance of these four basic

energies: fire (warmth, inspiration, enthusiasm), earth

(practicality, realism, material interests), air (social and

intellectual qualities), and water (emotional needs and

feelings).

 

    Your "elemental make-up" is described below. Remember that

most people are "unbalanced" or lopsided, and if you are lacking

or deficient in a certain element (or elements), it simply means

that you need to consciously develop that aspect of yourself to

learn to appreciate and/or to work harder in that dimension of

life.

 

    Sometimes we overvalue the element that we are least endowed

with, sensing it as a lack within ourselves, but more often we

neglect or ignore it. The qualities described below will be

reiterated and explained in more detail in the following

chapters.

 

Fire and Water are Strong (F,E,A,W Scores = 20,7,2,20):

 

    Your life is apt to be full of emotional extremes,

turbulence, joy and sorrow, arising out of your own passionate

nature and unpredictability. You are impulsive and

temperamental. For you, everything is intensely personal and

colored by emotion. You may have difficulty viewing a situation

from a detached, impartial or rational perspective, and you have

little inclination to structure and order your life. However,

developing self-discipline, organization, and focus is

essential. Otherwise you will be prone to tremendous moodiness,

alternating between high inspiration and despondency.

 

    At times you feel much internal pressure, for you have two

strong impulses which can be in conflict with one another. The

desire for independence and freedom, the need for self

expression and ego recognition, and an urge to leave the past

behind in order to propel yourself into new experiences may be

at odds with other, equally strong needs: attachments to people

and to the familiar, a compelling urge for emotional closeness

and union, and a desire for security. Balancing these two drives

is a significant challenge for you.

 

    Even though your life is less even and perhaps less stable

than others', most likely you would not change it, for you are

very alive, sensitive, and responsive to the ever-changing,

dynamic quality of life.

 

Air is Weak (F,E,A,W Scores = 20,7,2,20):

 

    You tend to lack the ability to analyze yourself or your

life in a detached, objective way. You feel and experience but

do not necessarily understand or reflect upon your experience,

and thus find it hard to communicate or talk about it. Really

taking in what someone else has to say can be hard for you - you

do not readily adapt to new ideas or people, and as a result may

become inflexible or limit your experience of life. A broadening

education and exposure to different cultures and types of people

is very beneficial to you. Otherwise you are apt to be rigid and

even prejudiced against those outside your own circle.

(Arthritic conditions, poor flexibility, or poor circulation may

reflect this).

 

    You also tend to distrust people who are free with words or

to feel inferior to those who are more articulate and

intellectual than yourself. You learn much more readily by

watching, doing, or apprenticing than by reading or by being

told about something.

 

 

 

 

  Chapter 2: How You Approach Life and How You Appear To Others

 

    The following is a description of your basic stance towards

life, the way others see you, the way you come across, the face

you show to the world. In Chapter 3 you will read about the "The

Inner You: Your Real Motivation", which describes the kind of

person you are at heart and where your true priorities lie. Read

this chapter and the next one and compare them - there may be

significant differences between them, in which case "the inner

you" may not shine through and others are in for some surprises

when they get to know you at a more than superficial level. This

chapter describes the costume you wear, your role in life, while

Chapter 3 talks about the real person inside the costume.

 

Cancer Rising:

 

    You appear gentle and soft, and you act rather reserved with

others until you know them well and feel it is safe to be open

with them. You have a strong need for emotional security and a

sense of belonging, and are deeply attached to the past: your

heritage, roots, family, cherished friends, familiar places,

etc. Making radical changes or moves away from what is known and

safe can be very painful and difficult for you. You tend to

cling and hold on to people, memories, possessions of personal

or sentimental significance. Having a home, a safe haven, is

very important to you.

 

    You approach life emotionally and subjectively and are

sensitive to the emotional atmosphere, the subtle undercurrents

of feeling in and around you. Instinctive and nonrational, you

are often unable to give a clear, simple explanation for your

actions. Something FEELS right, or it doesn't.

 

    Your emotions and personal loyalties tend to color your

thoughts and opinions. You view life from a very personal

perspective and often cannot mentally detach yourself from your

own personal bias and prejudices. You are apt to be concerned

primarily with how something affects you and those dear and

close to you, rather than with the principle or the broader

social implications. For instance, you may be very patriotic and

feel that whatever "my country" does is right without really

knowing much about the other nation's policies or point of view.

Put simply: if it is good for me and mine, it is good. If it is

not good for me and mine, it is no good.

 

    You are tenaciously loyal, protective, and supportive of

those you care about, and have a very strong nurturing, motherly

nature (regardless of your gender). You empathize with others

and intuitively sense the feelings and needs of other people.

Compassionate and sympathetic, you are easily moved by others'

pain, and you are often the one others seek out when they need

comfort, reassurance, or help.

 

    Your moods fluctuate and change frequently and you are

sometimes open, sometimes withdrawn emotionally. You communicate

nonverbally and appreciate a person who can pick up subtle cues

and hints, rather than having to make everything explicit.

 

    You never forget either kindness or unkindness shown to

you.

 

Neptune Sextile Asc.:

 

     You tend to blend in with and take on the characteristics

of the people in your surroundings, and may thus not make a

powerful individual statement of your own. You may project an

aura of glamour or "make-believe", and enjoy trying on different

personalities at different times.

 

Moon Quincunx Asc.:

 

     In significant ways, your emotional nature and personal

needs are at odds with the way you present yourself. (Compare

this chapter with the description of your moon sign in Chapter

4.) As a result of this inconsistency, you may be uncomfortable

showing your instinctive responses and true feelings. You may

put them aside, maybe even be ashamed of them.

 

     When you are in an emotionally charged situation, those who

don't know you well may be quite surprised at your reactions or

behavior. The real challenge, though, is to completely accept

yourself, so that you don't act as if your emotional needs and

impulses didn't count for very much.

 

Asc. Conjunct Uranus/Pluto

 

    You are likely to live in an unusual or somewhat restless

environment. You need your freedom and may be a bit

inconsiderate and combative toward others at times. You have a

strong desire to exceed your limits, even if it means having to

use force.

 

 

 

 

         Chapter 3: The Inner You: Your Real Motivation

 

Ascendant in Cancer and Sun in Pisces:

 

    In addition to your strong personal loyalties and the

devotion you feel for your nearest and dearest (as described in

the previous chapter), you have great compassion and sensitivity

to people of all walks of life. You have a gift for

understanding and appreciating a wide variety of art styles and

life styles.

 

   Also, be careful not to be taken advantage of by others. Your

good heart and innocent, unsuspecting attitude can make you a

victim of others' greed. If this happens, do not allow yourself

to become bitter and resentful towards life, but instead allow

your great compassion and sensitivity to grow and shine rather

than be dimmed by a few mistakes.

 

Sun in Pisces:             [back to the top]

 

    At heart you are very gentle, impressionable, and receptive

-a dreamer. The world of your imagination, feelings, and

intuition is as real to you as anything in the outer world,

though you may have trouble verbalizing or interpreting your

inner experiences in a way others can understand. Mystical,

artistic, musical, emotional and imaginative, you have a rich

inner life, though you may seem rather unobtrusive and quiet

outwardly. You usually keep to yourself.

 

    You have great sensitivity and empathy with others, and you

often sense things psychically or intuitively which prove to be

correct. You are tolerant, forgiving, and nonjudgmental,

accepting people unconditionally regardless of their flaws,

mistakes, or outward appearance. You have deep compassion for

the suffering of any fellow creature and often feel others' pain

as if it were your own. You sympathize with the needy, the

disadvantaged, the misfits of society. You are capable of giving

selflessly, living a life of devoted and compassionate service

to others, as a healer, physician, social worker, or minister.

However, you tend to give indiscriminately, to let others take

advantage of your kindness, and to encourage the weak to remain

so by becoming dependent upon you. You have little sense of

boundaries, of limits, of knowing when to say "no". Moderation

and self-discipline are not your strong points.

 

    You are a lover and a peacemaker rather than a fighter, and

you try to avoid open conflict. You will patiently ignore or

"tune out" problems and hope they will go away by themselves,

rather than directly confronting them, and you tend to lack the

positive fighting spirit that is sometimes necessary to overcome

challenges. You are fluid, open, nonresistant, and somewhat

passive. You do things in a subtle, often covert, manner.

 

    Your gifts may also lie in the realm of the creative,

artistic, or musical, for you have a great sensitivity,

inspiration, and limitless imagination. You respond very

strongly to beauty and to love.

 

    Your faults include a tendency to be lazy and negligent, and

to wallow in self-pity rather than taking strong, definite

action to change your life for the better. You also tend to

become so detached from your immediate environment that you live

in a disorderly, chaotic sort of hodgepodge, though this

probably bothers those around you more than it bothers you.

 

Sun in 10th house:

 

     Your career, reputation, and public image are very

important to you. You have a strong desire to be influential or

make your mark on the world. The merely personal sphere does not

satisfy you; your ambitions include making a major contribution

and receiving broad recognition for your unique effort and

gifts. You may undervalue the personal or inner side of life.

 

Sun Sextile Mars:

 

     You can be an inspiring leader of a team or group effort.

Your dynamism and energy evokes the same in others, and you see

healthy competition between people as a plus. Generally, you

enjoy fine health as well.

 

Sun Sextile Pluto:

 

     You undergo deep, transformative changes in your life with

relative ease and a minimum of conscious resistance. Because you

don't avoid the depths, you have access to a lot of personal

power and strength. Without realizing it or seeking it, you're

apt to have quite a potent effect on the people you come into

contact with, even superficially. Others sense that you're a

force to be reckoned with.

 

Sun Conjunct Mercury/MC

 

    You have a harmonious balance between your body, soul and

spirit. You enjoy intellectual challenges from others, but tend

to form your own mental attitudes and philosophies of life. You

may be interested in studying human nature and matters of

health.

 

Sun Conjunct Venus/Jupiter

 

    You are warm-hearted, kind, generous and very popular,

especially with the opposite sex. Your happy feelings rub off

onto others and everyone enjoys being with you. Due to a

protective and encouraging upbringing, your relations with your

parents are good.

 

Sun Conjunct Saturn/MC

 

    Your courage to face life seems to be a bit on the low side

and you are prone to worry a lot. Fear of your own inadequacies

could distort your perspective and deplete your strength to go

on in the direction you have chosen.

 

 

 

 

            Chapter 4: Mental Interests and Abilities

 

Mercury in Aries:             [back to the top]

 

    Outspoken and direct, you are always eager to express your

ideas and opinions and don't mind opposing the consensus and

stirring up a little controversy. You have fresh, original ideas

and much enthusiasm for anything new and untried, but once the

novelty has worn off, you are interested in another new idea or

project. You never seem to have enough time to do all you want

to. You are very honest, speak decisively and convincingly about

things you believe in, and are unable to pretend to agree with

someone if you honestly don't. You may be somewhat deficient in

tact.

 

Mercury in 10th house:

 

     You think a great deal about your career, your reputation

and public image, and the way you make a contribution or impact

on the world at large. Public speaking or communications of some

other kind is likely to be an important aspect of the work you

do.

 

Mercury Conjunct Saturn:                      [back to the top]

 

    Your mind is serious and deep, and you will rarely offer an

opinion on any matter until you have thoroughly considered and

studied it. You have excellent powers of concentration and enjoy

studying or thinking deeply in solitude. You have an aptitude

for research or doing mental work which requires precise,

organized thinking, attention to detail, and a methodical

approach. You are conservative and something of a skeptic, and

may be narrow-minded and closed to new ideas, especially if

there is no concrete proof or scientific verification of them.

Socially, you are rather reserved, uncommunicative, and

uncomfortable with light, frivolous conversation.

 

Mercury aspects Saturn and Uranus:                  [back to the top]

 

    You will notice that the description below contradicts some

of the statements made in the previous paragraphs. Above your

thinking is depicted as careful, conservative, methodical, and

possibly narrow or rigid, while the following information

characterizes your mind as quick and innovative. Both are true!

You incorporate both ways of thinking - the inspired, inventive

AND the deductive, ordered. Here is a description of the more

free-flowing aspect:

 

Mercury Quincunx Uranus:                      [back to the top]

 

     Your mind works in a rather electric, inspired, sometimes

brilliant way, and you grasp new concepts very readily. However,

your retention may be poor, as you tend to leap from one idea to

another in a flash, and often without thoroughly digesting any

of them. Your mind may race so quickly that it is hard for you

to sit still for any length of time. You have a highly sensitive

nervous system and need a relatively calm, stable environment to

be at your best. Avoid over stimulating, frenetic places in order

to stay balanced.

 

Mercury Conjunct Jupiter/Neptune                      [back to the top]

 

    You have good powers of perception and visualization and an

intense imagination. Greatly inspired, you feel optimistic and

hopeful for the future. You are likely to talk a lot about your

plans and also are inclined to put on an act at times.

 

 

 

 

          Chapter 5: Emotions: Moods, Feelings, Romance

 

Moon in Sagittarius:

 

    Open and generous, you enjoy a wide circle of friends and

acquaintances and you thrive on sociability and fellowship. You

are adventurous, playful, freedom-loving, and always ready for a

good time. You rarely allow obstacles or difficulties to keep

you down, for no matter how bleak the past or present, you

always expect a better, brighter future. In fact, you are

uncomfortable with your own or other people's problems and

emotional pain. You often try to "cheer up" or offer

philosophical advice to those who are hurting, but unwittingly

you avoid or ignore the emotions involved.

 

    Friendship means a great deal to you, perhaps even more than

love or romance. For you to be happy, your mate must be your

best friend and encourage your aspirations and ideals. You also

need a great deal of emotional freedom and mobility.

 

Moon in 5th house:

 

    You are emotionally expressive and often dramatize your

feelings, acting them out or blowing them out of proportion. You

can not hide your instinctive emotional reactions to people or

situations, and you don't make any pretenses about your personal

sympathies or antipathies.

 

     You have a childlike openness and playfulness which is very

appealing to others, but which sometimes gets you into trouble,

as you take risks on impulse or whim.

 

Moon Trine Venus:

 

    You feel that little, daily acts of caring and

thoughtfulness are essential to the happiness and success of a

relationship and you know how to make others feel accepted,

loved, and cherished. You enjoy good relationships with women.

 

Venus in Aries:

 

    Your love feelings and desires are easily aroused but it may

be difficult to sustain your romantic interest in a relationship

after the initial, exciting "chase and conquest". You enjoy a

partner who is dynamic and alive, someone with a strong

independent streak, and you do not like things to become too

peaceful or predictable in the love arena. You want to see

sparks fly once in awhile, even if that means instigating a

fight.

 

Venus in 10th house:

 

     Promoting beauty, the arts, or entertainment can make you

very happy. You want to contribute something positive and loving

to the world at large and you want to be recognized for your

beauty, artistic gifts, or loving generosity. You may "marry"

your work - that is, be more involved in your career than in

your private life. You are a natural hostess or diplomat.

 

Venus Conjunct Sun/Neptune

 

    Your constitution tends to be on the weak side and you may

tire easily. In love you could be somewhat reserved and have a

tendency toward platonic relationships. On the other hand, you

also could have questionable romances that leave you

disappointed.

 

 

 

 

    Chapter 6: Drive and Ambition: How You Achieve Your Goals

 

Mars in Capricorn:

 

    You are serious about your ambitions, and disciplined,

dedicated, and tenacious in pursuing your objectives. Your drive

and energy are directed toward practical material accomplishment

and achieving concrete results. You also strive to be in a

position of authority and social influence; you enjoy being the

person who is in command.

 

    You are hard-working and capable of foregoing immediate

comfort in order to achieve your long-range goals. You can

easily become a workaholic and are very responsible and

conscientious about doing a thorough job.

 

    Realistic and pragmatic, you are an excellent strategist.

You attain success by formulating a conservative and workable

plan and following through with it. You are not a gambler when

it comes to attaining your goals; you depend on your own efforts

and perseverance rather than good fortune. You have a natural

shrewdness and instinct for business or organizational

management.

 

Mars in 7th house:

 

     You are attracted to feisty, dynamic, strong-willed people,

and you seem to need a lot of fireworks in your personal

relationships. You can be very combative, or get involved with

people who are. Ideally you will join with people who are

energetic and ambitious, but not too domineering or aggressive.

 

Mars Trine Pluto:

 

    You have a strong sense of mission and you instinctively

know that to achieve anything great, one must eliminate

superfluous activities, and give oneself wholly to the goal one

wishes to accomplish. Your zeal, enthusiasm, and clarity of

purpose enable you to succeed and to achieve whatever you aim

for. You have a strong will, but you are usually quiet and

understated about it.

 

Moon Square MC:

 

     You may have to overcome something in your background or

personal past in order to achieve your long-range goals and

ambitions. Sometimes you're apt to feel pulled in two different

directions -- what others expect of you or what you need to do

to progress, versus what your old conditioning or your emotional

predisposition would have you do. Overcoming the pull of the

past is the key.

 

 

 

 

      Chapter 7: Growth and Expansion: Areas That You Enjoy

 

Jupiter in Aquarius:                      [back to the top]

 

     Your strength lies in your ability to be innovative, open

to new progressive concepts, willing to experiment and to reject

customs and traditions when they cease to serve any positive

function in the present. Also, you have an expansive view of the

world, one that includes humanity and not only your own small,

personal circle.

 

Jupiter in 9th house:                      [back to the top]

 

     You are very open-minded and deeply curious about distant

places and ways of thinking and living that are different from

your own. The urge to travel widely and to experience as much of

the world as possible is very strong in you. The study of

philosophy or religion also interests you a great deal. You

benefit from your contact with other cultures, and you may be

involved in linking those who are far apart geographically or

philosophically.

 

Jupiter Opposition Uranus:

 

    Your gaiety, enthusiasm, optimism, and a positive,

energetic, upbeat attitude generate a lot of opportunities for

you. You enjoy being spontaneous and taking risks. You must have

a great deal of personal freedom and independence, and prefer

the "wide-open spaces" to a very rigid, structured lifestyle.

Your sense of humor and playfulness enable you to make it

through the rough spots in life, as well as to bounce back when

those gambles you make do not quite pan out. You enjoy surprises

and exploring new territory, both intellectually as well as

physically.

 

Jupiter Square Pluto:                          [back to the top]

 

    You aim high, have great vision, and are never satisfied

with yourself unless you can achieve your goals in a big way.

You are very opportunistic and are always ready to capitalize on

a good idea. You utilize contacts with prominent and successful

people to advantage, and are likely to win yourself an important

and lucrative position in life.

 

Jupiter Conjunct Sun/N. Node

 

    You are very generous, tactful and sociable and have an

inner need for public recognition. Your integration into the

community is harmonious and because of this, you are likely to

achieve success in public life.

 

Jupiter Conjunct Moon/Neptune                      [back to the top]

 

    You have abundant powers of imagination and fantasy and

could do well in some artistic endeavor, if you are so inclined.

You also are intuitively aware of what others are feeling,

giving you a very sympathetic and compassionate attitude.

 

 

 

 

  Chapter 8: Areas That Challenge You Or Are Difficult For You

 

Saturn in Aries:

 

     You have difficulty asserting your will and desires

directly and openly. You also may suppress your anger and

aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith

in yourself are important tasks for you.

 

Saturn in 10th house:

 

     You are very conscientious, responsible, and concerned with

your duty, your public image and reputation, and becoming a

person of stature in the world. You understand the need for hard

work and careful planning in order to accomplish anything

substantial and you're capable of much self-discipline and

patience once you set your sights on a goal.

 

     But you are very judgmental and hard on yourself if you

fail to attain success, and you can become dry, bitter, or

cynical if the world doesn't recognize your efforts.

 

Saturn Quincunx Uranus:

 

     The side of you that wants and needs structure, order,

stability, and a disciplined way of life is at odds with your

urges for unfettered freedom, change, excitement, and discovery.

There is apt to be much discontent, inner stress, and tension

due to this, and at times you find it hard to relax. You may act

out in a rebellious way now and then, or clamp down hard on

yourself, in an attempt to strictly control your "wild"

impulses. Your task is to try to find a reasonable balance

between order and creative chaos in your life.

 

Saturn Conjunct Sun/Venus

 

    You tend to be shy, sensitive and stiff with your emotions

and may have difficulty expressing your true feelings, even

though your affection for someone is there. One of your parents

may have been too strict and unloving, and so you may fear close

relationships.

 

 

 

    Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which you

instinctively and habitually revert to when under stress - a

mostly unconscious process and one which you are apt to overdo

because it is so familiar and thus easy for you. The direction

you need to follow in order to develop balance, greater

awareness, and wholeness is also described.

N. Node in Aquarius:

 

    Your path lies in cultivating idealism and humanitarian

feelings, being concerned with how your actions impact the world

at large, perhaps becoming more aware of the social implications

of your life style and personal choices or becoming active

politically. Participating in organizations that support your

ideals is one way to do this.

 

    When under stress you are likely to become overly focused on

yourself and your own little world.

 

    Instead of "how will this benefit or hurt me?" your focus

needs to shift to "how will this affect us all?".

 

    Ideally, you need to strike a balance between doing for

yourself and doing for others, by discovering how your unique

gifts can contribute to the good of all.

 

N. Node in 7th house:

 

    The arena you are most likely to wrestle with these issues

is in your marriage and other intimate, one-to-one

relationships. You may see the qualities you need to develop

more fully (described above) in your partner. It is important

for you to recognize, appreciate, and listen to the people in

your life who express such attributes, as well as developing

them yourself. Put energy and attention into learning about

others, and about yourself through others.

 

    The following are specific activities that will support you

in your growth. These may or may not feel natural to you, and

often there is some feeling of resistance or initial awkwardness

about doing these things, but they are important on your path to

wholeness.

 

N. Node Conjunct Mars:

 

    Be a warrior and cultivate a positive, victorious, active

approach to life and to any problems you face. Act on your own

behalf instead of stalling, waiting, or hoping someone else will

do it for you. Assert yourself openly and courageously and don't

be afraid to make mistakes or fall down. Any new initiative is

likely to have a few trial runs. Stir up a healthy fighting

spirit, pick yourself up, and go! Appreciate conflict and

confrontation as a way to grow.

 

 

 

 

             Chapter 9: Originality and Imagination

  Areas Where You Are Creative, Unique, Unstable, or Compulsive

 

Uranus in 3rd house:                      [back to the top]

 

     You grasp new concepts quickly and are interested in new

technologies, discoveries, and innovations. Unconventional ideas

and creative, original approaches to problems are very

attractive to you also. You are easily bored and may have

trouble concentrating on one idea or task at a time. You have an

inventive mind.

 

Neptune in 10th house:                          [back to the top]

 

     You are a very idealistic person, and you want to see your

ideals, hopes, and dreams made concrete and real in the everyday

world. You are driven to put your ideals into action.

 

     When young you may be rather aimless or confused about your

place in the world. In early adult life it is likely that you

struggle to find ways to express your imagination, fantasies,

and ideals in your career. Work that involves compassionate

service (such as medicine or the ministry) may be your calling.

If you lack personal integrity and honesty, you quickly go to

the opposite extreme and you can con others through dishonesty

and trickery. Music, art, film-making or entertainment are also

areas in which you are well-suited.

 

Pluto in 11th house:

 

     You may have a deep aversion to groups, associations,

clubs, or organizations of any kind. Any such group you become

involved in is likely to be either for intense personal growth,

change, and healing, or centered around social change and

revising society in some manner.

 

Uranus Opposition Mercury/Mars

 

    You have a tendency to act with speed and may not think

things through very carefully. You are likely to make impulsive

decisions without adequate forethought and should make sure to

be in a position where you can change your mind, for you may do

it often.

 

Uranus Opposition Mercury/N. Node

 

    Your ideas and thoughts are likely to change quickly and you

also may receive sudden new ideas and plans during team-work

with others. In fact, the most stimulating ideas you get

probably will be through other people.

 

Uranus Opposition Mars/Saturn

 

    Although you seem to have a very strong power of resistance,

you have great need for independence and strive to break free

from stifling situations. You tend to be somewhat irritable and

easily angered and are able to give as well as take under

provocation.

 

 

 

 

       Chapter 10: Generational Influences: Your Age Group

 

    In this chapter we will discuss characteristics and traits

of your generation. Of course, you may not share all of the

characteristics of your generation, but you are greatly affected

by the tone that is set by your generation.

 

    The first topic is "The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of

Your Age Group". In this section we will describe a deeply felt

urge, even compulsion, of your age group. This deeply felt drive

comes to the surface with great force and power, and

consequently leaves in its wake considerable upheaval and

change. The second topic is "The Ideals and Illusions of Your

Age Group", that describes the dreams, fantasies, and spiritual

aspirations of your age group. The third and last topic is "What

is New and Different in Your Age Group", which describes areas

in which your age group tends to be innovative, inventive,

unusual, and also where it may be unstable and unreliable.

 

    The characteristics described below may affect a group of

people for anywhere from a few years to about 30 years. There

are one or more different astrological factors described in each

of the three sections below.

 

     The Subconscious and Emotional Drive of Your Age Group

 

Pluto in Taurus:

 

    You are part of a 30 year group of people who are highly

motivated by practical concerns. There is a very strong

psychological need to feel that there is a firm foundation and a

solid basis for one's life. There is an irresistible urge to

make sure that the basics are taken care of and everything is

built on a solid foundation. Consequently, your generation works

hard to improve the economy, ensure adequate food supplies,

maintain and build roads and buildings, increase productivity,

and develop other facilities that are essential foundations for

a healthy, thriving economy.

 

    There is a strong tendency to measure the value of something

by its utilitarian value. For example, in education and research

the emphasis is on ideas of practical value and there is little

support for more purely theoretical research.

 

    Your generation is pragmatic and productive, and is driven

by a need to build and DO things. This concern with practical

affairs often becomes unbalanced, and a rampant materialism with

little regard for humanitarian, ethical, and spiritual values

often develops in your age group.

 

    There is also a strong sensual craving in your age group,

and a great deal of emphasis is placed on physically comfortable

surroundings and good food. Romance is particularly important to

your age group, and a great emphasis is also placed on the

physical attractiveness of the opposite sex.

 

    A small minority of members of your age group are likely to

be uncomfortable with the practical and materialistic atmosphere

of the times, and consequently become alienated and antagonistic

towards the social norm.

 

           The Ideals and Illusions of Your Age Group

 

Neptune in Taurus:

 

    You are part of a 14 year group of people that are very

practical and down-to-earth in their religious philosophy and

spiritual outlook. Your age group incorporates its ideals and

visions into everyday life, and invests more time and energy

than other generations do in beautification projects, developing

parks and recreation areas, and preserving beautiful or unique

natural wildlife areas. Building construction is also done with

careful attention to the aesthetic quality, and your generation

finds it difficult to understand how other age groups can erect

buildings with so little aesthetic appeal.

 

    Your age group does not speculate a great deal about

spiritual and metaphysical matters. You are more involved in

utilizing your imagination and intuition in practical, artistic

ways rather than exploring metaphysical issues. Some of the art

and music of your generation is among the world's most

beautiful.

 

           What is New and Different in Your Age Group

 

Uranus in Virgo:

 

    You are part of a 7 year group of people who employ their

skills and creativity to bring about a great deal of practical

reform in education, medical care, and other social services.

Your innovations are not radical or unusual, but they are

usually effective.

 

    Your generation also has a curious mixture of both

conservative, ethical people, and rebellious, disruptive people.

There seems to be little middle ground for your age group, and

you swing to one extreme or the other. The conservative people

strive to reinstate strict moral standards, want to swiftly

punish criminal behavior, and strive to highlight the importance

of old-fashioned values in our lives, laws, and overall life

style. On the other hand, the rebellious people of your

generation are angry at the established way of doing things and

act in a defiant, crude, and coarse manner.
