Quite likely, you will notice some contradictions in the analysis of your personality. This is partly because you are a complex entity, a composite of many diverse, sometimes conflicting, energies. At times these differing energies balance each other out; at other times they fight with each other, causing confusion or unrest in your life. In addition .. this report synthesizes some horoscope elements [but] describes each [one] separately, not taking into account the presence of other contradicting or supporting horoscope factors. .. As you read .. any .. astrological report, keep in mind that the energies interpreted .. are your birth potentials. However, you may or may not choose to actualize these energies in the manner described. Your age, sex, socio-economic situation, education, environment, level of development, and many other factors contribute to the ways in which you express your natal energies. Remember, the planets do not compel you to do or be anything. They influence you, but you still have the free will to determine your own life. Sun in Aries, Moon in Leo: .. the natural enthusiasm and passion of Aries are compounded by the fiery force of Leo. [The subject is] capable of strong feelings and emotions. With [his] frankness and blunt honesty [he is] often cutting and somewhat less than diplomatic. [His] courage, coupled with burning enthusiasm, brings [him] into positions of leadership. In matters of love, [his] partner feels the intensity of [his] interest. [He] tend[s] to fall in love quickly and violently, wanting the loved one all to [him]self. Given the reins of command, [he] prove[s] yourself a fine leader. It is almost inevitable that at some point in [his] life [he] will be raised to a position of authority. [He has] a strong sense of loyalty. The key to the harmonious development of [his] being lies in expanding [his] intellectual powers and sharpening the insights into [his] own nature. Ascendant in Leo, Sun in the Ninth House: .. People with Leo in the Ascendant seem to possess a flare for the life of nobility and regality. [The subject's] life will be in many ways influenced by decisions [he] make[s] that have been motivated by [his] pride, desire for power, for authority, and [his] need to convince others of [his] courage. In life [he] will act with a rather frank, generous, and amiable disposition. The course of events in [his] life will unfold themselves swiftly, and a life full of chance and circumstances will be the outcome of [his] desire to rule, to organize, to hold the keys of authority. [He] should be aware that as a result of overly strong impulses there is the danger of failures and upsets in life. [He] will be generally regarded as an amiable, sincere and generous person who, however, has much pride and sensitivity. Egocentricity is one of the prices of being born with the Ascendant sign of Leo. Another negative aspect of this zodiacal sign is that [his] personality becomes excessively charged with passion and sexual desire. On the other hand, these zodiacal signs grant in life a large dose of vitality as well as a fine physical shape and a strong, healthy constitution. Willpower is a characteristic of [his] personality. [He] seek[s] opportunities and when [he] find[s] them [he] go[es] to it, using both [his] mind and [his] emotions to strive for success with zeal and determination. [He is] very self-assured and [he] implement[s] ideas with a self-assurance that lets nothing get in [his] way of success. It would be beneficial to [him], however, if [he] were not so candid and frank and if [he] did not expect others to act and feel as [he] do[es]. Leo will grant [him] very sincere and affectionate relationships in which [he] desire[s] to bring happiness and an overall feeling of charitable spirit and warmth to [his] loved one. In [his] sexual relationships [he] appear[s] as happy, strong, playful and even a little innocent. [He] will always act better as a leader than a subordinate. In a certain way this position makes [him] a dreamer and one who especially likes to contemplate the future. [His] mind is austere, self-confident and firm with a natural inclination to do research in scientific matters in which [his] judgement must be completely impartial and clear. At certain times of [his] life, very possibly during middle age, [he] will be successful in dealings related with religion and law, and with other activities having to do with the higher problems of the mind. [He] should travel abroad considerably as in foreign lands [he] will find success. Sun in the Ninth House: .. This is an indication that [the subject's] real self possesses an attraction to higher levels of thought. Additionally, this indicates that the most important realizations may come through the process of pure reasoning. [He] will tend to grow through the workings of [his] higher mind where [he] may find, after much striving, the creative principle and the power of self-expression. [He] possess a rather austere mind which is fearless, self-confident and keenly analytical. Regarding life events, [he] will be inclined to obtain success in subjects connected with law, religion, and possibly foreign lands. Venus in the Tenth House: .. [The subject] will appear as a person who seeks harmony, inclined as [he is] to observe the aesthetic value of all things in life, to engage in artistic activities and to possess all that is lovely and beautiful. [He has] sufficient potential to achieve success in life, especially if [his] occupation is artistic or musical. Much of [his] success is a consequence of applied interest and hard work; [he] posses[ses] merit and ability, and [his] congenial, intelligent manner produces a very exalted image. In any case, there are very good possibilities for the acquisition of some social distinction, a good reputation and financial success at some period of [his] life. Saturn in the Eleventh House: .. Psychologically, this denotes a rather hidden and limited view of [the subject's] personal ambitions, [his] friendships, and of [his] future. [He is] very ambitious, cautious, just, patient, responsible, but perhaps, too serious. [He is] an individual with few friends and even there [he] may find that some of them will assist [him] with advice rather than with actual help in times of peril. Moon in the Twelfth House: .. Secretly, [the subject] enjoy[s] a love of romance and adventure that lends a bit of excitement to [his] daydreaming. It is possible that the little popularity that [he] may enjoy in this life will be from some very reserved and secretive circles where [his] merits are recognized. It can be expected that [he] will be successful in positions that call for solitude or remote locations. Moon Conjunct Ascendant: The Moon conjunct the Ascendant shows that [the subjects has] some emotional hangups. [He] want[s] close, intimate contacts with others, but [he] tend[s] to keep people at arm's length because [he is] afraid [he] will become obligated to them. [He is] a mass of contradictions - making demands on people but complaining when they do the same to [him]; expecting others to make overtures to [him] and withdrawing when they do. Although [he is] highly imaginative, [he] react[s] to stimulating people in a generally negative and critical way. On the surface [he is] independent, but [he] yearn[s] for a quieter role in which [he] can enjoy the comfort of knowing that someone really cares for [him]. This can only happen when [he] lower[s] [his] defensive barriers and learn to compromise by meeting people halfway. Pluto Conjunct Ascendant: The conjunction of Pluto to the Ascendant means that [the subject has] the power to determine the kind of world that can be constructed from its available resources. [He] can play an important role in urging the public to eliminate the parasites who cause decaying social conditions and the depraved human qualities that lead to them. Because [he] speak[s] and conduct[s] [himself] with authority, no one dares dismiss [him] as a troublesome critic. [He is] not easily aroused to taking action unless the situation is serious. If it is, [he] will use every trick [he] can devise to compel those responsible to take the actions that are necessary to restore order from chaos. In general [he] know[s] what [he] want[s] out of life and [is] ready to make any investment in talent and effort to realize [his] goals. [He should] choose [his] adversaries with care, or [he] could antagonize someone who would deal violently with [him]. [He] tend[s] to bring out the worst qualities in people.
