Mars in the Sixth House

You enjoy hard work, as long as you can control the way you do it. You are quite disciplined in your own work habits, but you don't like to work with people who are less disciplined. But if you respect those who have authority over you, if they have demonstrated that they do know more than you and can teach you something, you will be an excellent employee. However, when you are older, your work drive will be expressed most smoothly if you are self-employed.

When working with others, especially if you are the leader, try not to be too critical. With this placement, it is very important that you learn to express your honest feelings of anger.


Mars in Libra

This placement of Mars can have two quite different effects. Probably you prefer to work with another person, for you have a strong sense of cooperation. Your desire to have your own way is modified by your need to get along with others.

But on the other hand, some persons with this placement are very competitive. In that case, you think of every meeting with someone else as a chance to compete, either in a friendly or an unfriendly spirit.

You have a strong sense of fairness and hate to see anyone treated unjustly.


Mars Conjunct Pluto

You have a very strong will, although you may express it in subtle ways. If you don't get your way, you may lose your temper, but when you see that that will get you nowhere, you change your tactics. The greatest problem with this aspect is that you may decide that getting your own way is the most important thing in life and that the only way to get it is by controlling others. Unless you are taught to have a high regard for other people's rights, you may trample upon them. But in that case people are likely to gang up on you and try to stop you at every turn, which will make you feel very frustrated and even farther from attaining your objectives. Instead of manipulating people, you must learn how to handle others creatively, so that they benefit from whatever happens as much as you do.

Regardless of your sex, with this aspect you may have considerable difficulty with men. It is particularly important that your relationship with your father be close and warm, with as little conflict as possible and no physical punishment.

On the plus side, this aspect can signify that you have a great deal of positive drive and ambition. You will want to accomplish a lot in life, and you will enjoy having power over others and using it responsibly. You will want to make changes in the world, which you see as a stage where you can make the greatest possible impression. But while you are young, you must bide your time and learn everything that you will need to know to fulfill your ambitions. Then you should go far in life.


Mars Conjunct Saturn

You often feel frustrated, as though you think the world has stacked the deck against you. And when you feel very frustrated, you have difficulty expressing your anger; it seems to burn intensely inside you with no way to release it. On the other hand, you have a great ability to make a sustained effort. Once you get into a project, you carry on until it is completely finished. When necessary, you are capable of enormous effort and self- discipline.

The greatest danger of this aspect is the likelihood of conflict with your father or someone who plays that role for you. It is important that your father and other authority figures encourage you and support you in what you do. If they are excessively critical and tear you down, you will show the most negative sides of this aspect, including feelings of bitterness, repressed anger, unworthiness and incompetence, and an inability to handle the world. None of these is usually justified.

This aspect often means that your father has taken the position that his children, especially sons, are in competition with him and must be put down. Your father may demand that you prove yourself through very demanding trials, but then he does not acknowledge your success. But if your father does not have this negative influence on you, the more positive effects of this aspect can come out - great self-discipline, concentration and ability to handle detailed work.

Even at best, you will have much difficulty handling your anger, because you tend to hold it in. Repressing this energy may cause physical ailments, usually inflammations of some sort, a tendency to break bones or to get rheumatism at an early age. Learning to release your emotions will stop this.



Jupiter in the Sixth House

This is a very useful placement, because it enables you to learn through working. You are able to put off getting something you want at the moment in favor of a goal that is more distant and usually more meaningful in the long run. By doing this, you grow in maturity and understanding. You will gain a great deal by giving to and working for others, which may not pay off immediately, but eventually it will bring you more than you can imagine.

You need to find work that is meaningful for you. Dull, repetitive and seemingly pointless tasks will turn you off very quickly, for you do not have as much patience as some people. But if you know that your duties are important, you will carry on with them until the very end.

As you get older, you will try to understand the world and people through work and service to others. You will be most attracted to fields that expose you to as many different kinds of people and situations as possible. You may work in a foreign country or with foreign people, or your work may concern travel and other countries. This placement can also signify working in some area of law, religion, medicine or philosophy.

Usually this placement means that you will have good health as long as you don't overindulge in anything, but you must develop disciplined health habits. Otherwise you could gain too much weight or have illnesses connected with overindulgence.


Jupiter in Scorpio

An important element of your life will be thinking beyond the surface appearance of a situation to understand what is really happening. You love mysteries, and by solving the mysteries, you will develop a great understanding of life. While you are young, you ask a lot of questions, and you keep asking and searching until you get answers. In this regard you are more persistent than most people. Any school subject that interests you will draw all your energies, but you won't give much attention to the subjects that seem dull.

Sometimes this placement indicates an interest in the supernatural, and when you are older, you will be attracted to spiritual and mystical views of the universe. You are not satisfied with appearances at any level, which means you should be a good researcher, if your mind is at all scientific. You have a great interest in people's psychological makeup, which you express now as intuitive insights. However, as you get older, you will understand what your intuitions are based on, and you may even choose a career in which psychology is an important part of your work.

The only problem here is that you may sometimes be reluctant to share your insights with others, for two reasons. First of all, especially while you are young, you have trouble communicating what you know. Later on you may be reluctant to discuss these matters because you know how difficult it is for others to understand them, even when expressed clearly. Also you may just enjoy being secretive, although it is not good to indulge this. Whatever you discover in life, your feelings and emotions will always be an important means to greater understanding.


Jupiter Square Midheaven

You have a lot of energy, and you want to accomplish something in life, but you will have to learn how to balance your own interests with the interests of other people in your life. If you do that, you can have good relations with others and achieve what you want as well. Sometimes this aspect indicates a selfish attitude, a feeling that you are the only one who counts in this world. If you carry this too far, you will find that everyone you meet works against you because you seem so selfish and arrogant or just because you come on too strong.

Sometimes this aspect means you have conflicts with authority figures, because they feel that you are trying to get above your proper place or that you are a threat to them. While you are young, you should avoid getting a reputation as a smart-aleck, because such people do not get many breaks from others, especially those above them.

You have a very strong belief in right and wrong, but you must learn to have more compassion for those who are on the wrong track. You are strongly tempted to preach to people who are in error, and you may do this at times. But then everyone will watch you to see what kinds of mistakes you make. If you can be more humble and realize that you do not have all the answers, you can convert the negative elements of this aspect to a very positive energy. Others will feel very good about you, knowing they can trust you to do whatever is right and necessary in a situation.



Saturn in the Sixth House

While you are young, you may have to be careful about your health. However, as you get older you should become stronger and more robust, but only if you take care of yourself.

For a person of your age, you have a very serious attitude toward work and responsibility. Also you may have more responsibilities than other young people, which may cause you to lose out on some of the fun of being young. But you should learn to accept your lot, because the discipline you learn now will help you out later in life and may bring you considerable success. If you do nothing but complain and resent your situation, you will develop such a negative attitude that you will have difficulty with jobs all your life. Either you will find it hard to keep a job yourself or, if you employ others, you will have trouble with them.

But if you can accept this placement of Saturn as a positive lesson to be learned, you will eventually get great satisfaction from your work, which you will do very carefully. You will gain recognition for the thoroughness and quality of your work, which will give you a head start on those who have a more frivolous attitude. You will have to work hard to get what you want, but you will get it, along with the satisfaction of knowing that your success is the result of your efforts rather than luck.


Saturn in Libra

This placement indicates that you need plenty of time to make decisions and that you always want to know everything about the subject before making up your mind. Others may think you are indecisive at times, but they will find that when you finally make a decision, it is likely to be the correct one.

You may be somewhat reserved in relations with others, but once you commit yourself, you will stay with that person - friend or lover - for a long time. Your strong sense of fairness is evident in your relationships as well as in every other area of your life. You are conscious of rules and duty toward your friends, and you are not likely to break an agreement that you have made with someone. You take relationships so seriously that you would never make an agreement lightly. While you are young, this trait might not be very obvious, but it will be clearer as you get older.

You are very concerned that everyone has what they deserve, and your sense of justice is outraged when someone gets away with something unfairly or takes advantage of someone else.

If you are not encouraged to encounter other people and to believe in yourself, you may prefer to be alone, unburdened by the necessity of relating to others. Or you may stay by yourself because you feel that others do not understand you. As you get older, this should diminish.


Saturn Conjunct Pluto

This aspect occurs only once every thirty-three years, the last time in 1947. It signifies that you can endure very difficult times, if you have to, and that you have an unusual degree of tenacity. However, it does not mean that you will necessarily have difficult times.

There may be a scarcity of some element or experience in your life. If this is the case, you will have to work very hard in an organized and disciplined way to make up for it. In the area of your life that is thus affected, simple good luck will not help you much, but hard work will.

Some persons with this aspect respond to the changes that must come in life with fierce resistance. You will have to cultivate the attitude of letting nature take its course, instead of building up structures to prevent change. If you do resist changes, it will only delay the inevitable and make the changes much more painful when they happen, even resulting in very severe deprivations. But if you allow changes to take place in your life, your inner fortitude will be more than enough to help you through any difficult times.

Whenever you are defeated, which won't happen to you any more that to anyone else, avoid feeling bitter about it. You may develop a cold, hard attitude toward the world if your experiences are rough, but such an attitude only cuts you off from others and makes it more likely that your fears will be realized.


Saturn Sextile Neptune

This aspect signifies that you are able to do without immediate pleasures when you are pursuing a higher purpose or helping someone else. Your needs and tastes are rather simple, and your attitude toward life is more sober than that of many young people, especially in your studies. But your greatest talent is your ability to keep an excellent balance in your mind between ideals and practical considerations. Even while you are young, you will know what life demands of you and what you can accomplish, but at the same time you have strong ideals that you will work hard toward all your life. Being well grounded in reality, you can work harder to achieve your hopes and ideals, which are very important to you. You will succeed, because you don't plod along without demanding anything of life.

If you believe in something or someone, you will do anything for them, because your own needs are not as important to you as other people and ideals. In fact you seem to need less in life than most people. You can take a very detached attitude about a situation and simply make the most of whatever happens, especially as you get older. While you are young, this detachment may not be so obvious. Later on in your life, you may be involved in a spiritual discipline that emphasizes denial of physical possessions and comfort. For you, this would be a way of getting past the barriers of the physical world to a happier and more spiritual place.



Uranus in the Seventh House

This placement will affect your life most strongly when you are older. In any kind of partnership you will want to maintain considerable freedom, and you will create a form of marriage according to your own unique scheme. You will rebel against the traditional roles and rules of marriage, and if you try to abide by them, your relationship will probably not be very stable. In that case, you will probably be married more than once.

Even while you are young, you clearly need a great deal of freedom in all your relationships. When someone tries to tell you about your obligations and restrictions in a relationship, you refuse to listen. And it is very important to find out now exactly what you do want in relationships. Don't accept what others tell you; find it out for yourself. If you try to arrange your relationships according to other people's rules, you will only become increasingly restless and want to escape.

You need to be with people who are very stimulating and challenging, even though they aren't the most stable people in the world. Stability is not what you need; instead, your relationships must be continually exciting. And you should try to give your partner and yourself plenty of freedom to express yourselves. Only then can a relationship be a source of richness and fulfillment in your life.


Uranus in Sagittarius

Uranus was in this sign from February 1981 to December 1988. These children are strongly attracted to new philosophies and will question all accepted traditions and ideals. They are interested in new and innovative ideas rather than the tried and true, feeling that the past has outlived its usefulness. They have a strong drive to be free and may be quite eccentric. If the current interest in new religious sects and cults continues, these people are likely to be very much involved in them and will change them tremendously.


Uranus Opposition Ascendant

First of all, you probably prefer to be with people who are very free and even eccentric rather than those who are predictable and "normal". This may cause some problems, however, because such people are likely to disappoint you greatly by not keeping agreements.

If you always attract people who disappoint you and do not give you the emotional support that you ask for, it is because unconsciously you don't want to be trapped by the obligations of a normal relationship.

If your relationships with others are generally unsatisfactory, it may be because your search for exciting relationships attracts people who are not very good for you.


Uranus Sextile Midheaven

With this aspect, you want to be independent and to find a lifestyle and life work that are unique and yours alone. While you are young, others will consider your interests quite unusual, especially for someone your age. You may be particularly interested in a technical or scientific field, and in fact when you are an adult you may choose a career in such a field. This aspect may also indicate an interest in the occult or in offbeat philosophies. You do not feel obligated or held back by tradition. You seek to carve your own niche in life, and in the course of doing so, you may come up with some rather original and even daring ideas. At some time in your life you may even make a totally new discovery.

You may prefer to be alone much of the time, not because you can't get along with people, but because you prefer to be free to program your own time. Other people may keep you from doing this, so that you feel you cannot accomplish what you need to.

You are likely to identify yourself as being different from others, because you feel that if you are just like everyone else, you are less of a person. Everyone follows some kind of pattern in order to feel unique, and yours is simply to be different.

You are capable of working with others as long as you feel that you share common goals. In fact, you can work very hard for a belief in something higher than yourself, usually a belief that is radical or unusual.


Neptune in the Eighth House

You are unusually interested in matters of the mind and in finding out what makes people tick. Even while young you may be interested in psychic and spiritual matters, although at this point it is likely to be just a fascination with stories about ghosts and the supernatural. You see mysterious forces at work in ordinary everyday events that others can see only the surface of. But you must be careful, because you can become rather morbidly obsessed and scared by the strange fantasies that you concoct. Don't get so involved in these that you lose your sense of proportion.

Sometimes this position means that you get into very strange moods which you can't bring yourself to discuss with your parents or other grownups. Your fears may make it difficult to go about your daily affairs. It is important to realize that these fears are based on what is happening to your mind rather than on anything that exists in the outside world. Your fantasies may be significant, but they won't hurt you, even though they may scare you sometimes. In particular, you may have an irrational fear of death.

The best solution for all of these problems is to take up some activity that completely involves both your body and mind and absorbs the energy that would otherwise go into these negative emotional states.


Neptune in Sagittarius

Neptune was in this sign from 1970 to 1984. This placement should produce a generation of extreme idealists. Even with older people, this energy has brought about a religious revival unparalleled in this century. As is characteristic of both Neptune and Sagittarius, most of these religions are sects from other countries such as India, and their teachings are quite foreign to Western tradition. However, there is also a strong Christian revival, especially among the fundamentalist and Pentecostal sects. The children of this time will continue that trend.


Neptune Sextile Pluto

This aspect lasted extremely long. It started in the late 1940s and continued till the end of the twentieth century. Therefore, a lot of children were born under this influence, and it is hard to seperate its effects from other elements and indications. During this time a lot of beliefs, religious or otherwise, underwent extraordinary changes. Attitudes about organized religion, morality and sexuality were revised completely. The children of this time will probably know the cycles of life better than others. They will realize that it is a natural part of life that everything must die and decay, to be reborn again at another level. This is especially true for inner and spiritual developments but also for their concern about social and human relations.


Pluto in the Sixth House

You approach work with great intensity, and you prefer tasks that involve you completely. You like to shut out everything else and simply be involved in what you are doing. You take your work very seriously, and even while you are young, you prefer work to play. Also, you want to do your tasks your own way, which may create troubles with employers when you are older and have a job.

Also you prefer to work by yourself, and you do not care to have people interfering with the way you do things. Others may consider you secretive about your activities.

You should be careful of your health, for otherwise you will have a number of serious health crises in your life. It isn't that your health is especially weak, but your work will be exhausting and require that you be in good physical and mental health. If you allow yourself to become run down, the consequences could be serious.

Pluto in this position can be a sign that you might work in some area involving investigation, research, psychology or secret projects.


Pluto in Libra

This placement lasts from 1971 to 1984. For those who are now adults, this period represents the greatest breakdown in modern history in the relationship of marriage. Many couples live together without getting married, and those that marry often do not stay married. Because of the general instability of their parents' marriages, the children of this era will have a much more fluid but unstable view of relationships and mutual commitments between people. They may be very reluctant to make binding agreements because of their childhood experience of marriage.


Pluto Square Midheaven

This aspect indicates that you will have to make a special effort to get along with people. You must make it clear that you will try to fulfill your goals in life at their expense and that you will not allow them to take advantage of you either. A very ambitious person, you probably picture yourself as being quite important when you are older. This can be a very constructive attitude, but it will be difficult to achieve your ambitions unless you are able to get along with others, to give them a constructive part in your goals. Also it is very important that you play the game of life honorably and adhere to high ethical standards. You don't need to worry that doing so will be dull, because whatever you get involved in, you make it exciting and powerful.

You have a strong desire to bring about change in your world, and you may want to be a reformer and rebuilder. However, you should not try to get power simply for its own sake. You have to use the energies of Pluto for a purpose higher than yourself. It is perfectly permissible to be personally rewarded by your work - you do not have to be totally self- denying - but personal gain should not be your principal motivation.

A born psychologist, you should be able to gain great insight into human behavior. But you must not use this knowledge for personal gain or to manipulate others. Eventually you may choose a profession that will use this knowledge.
