Chapter 1. Your Most Important Cosmic Factors

Four or more planets in Air signs

YOUR MIND IS YOUR MOST VALUABLE ASSET

Your mind is your most valuable asset; you could be an intellectual. The world of ideas is important to you. Intellectual companionship, seminars, books, magazines, films, and educational cassettes interest you. Feeding your mind is just as important as feeding your body. School can be the place for you.

TIP: In the words of Robert Anton Wilson, "You need to learn more about everything, including how to learn more."

People fascinate you and you tend to regard them in a detached manner. Consequently you enjoy teamwork and social interactions more than most folk. Sentimentality does not figure highly in most of your relationships.

You can excel in any field that requires negotiation skills. Sales and writing may be avenues of pursuit. You have an affinity for abstract reasoning, codes of law and ethics - you're very good at perceiving, comparing and communicating. You are much more objective than most people, and probably more liberal in your thinking.

Your weakness is not foolishness so much as it is indecisiveness. Too much thinking can result in lost opportunities. There is a time to get out of your head and make a decision. If you find that you can't sleep because your mind is racing, get up and work with your ideas. Get ideas down on paper, onto index cards, into a word processing machine or up and out into the airwaves.

Consider getting a brain machine and taking "smart drugs." Learn speed reading and typing. To avoid overstimulation, cut back on the use of artificial sweeteners and sugar. To the same end, you might take a mineral supplement and kelp tablets.

Five or more planets in Mutable signs

YOU HAVE PLENTY OF INTERESTS

You're more versatile than most people. You enjoy variety and become bored easily. You're pretty good at adapting to change and going with the flow. In fact, you'd rather go with the tide than against it. Put another way, you're accommodating and obliging. You can adjust.

You're good at getting the word out- by phone, by pen or whatever.

It's possible that you do six or seventeen dozen things at a time. You're certainly not suited for the Zen approach of one thing at a time; nevertheless, try and focus yourself more. Establish your top two priorities in each of several arenas of your life.

TIP: You'll be happier as soon as you determine exactly what it is that you want.

Mercury Contraparallel Saturn

CONCEPTS BRING OUT TALENT FOR DECISIONS

Your infancy and childhood might have been tough. You might have a fear of being perceived as "being stupid". You can overcome it by working to develop your reasoning powers. With effort, in time, you can have deep thoughts and do excellent mental work. You can be single minded and obsessed with goals.

TIP: Read Boost Your Brain Power. It's a total program to sharpen your thinking and age-proof your mind. It's written by Ellen Michaud, Russell Wild and the editors of Prevention Magazine. ISBN 0-87857-975-3.

A little studying beats a lot of work. Your forethought will be rewarded. You are mentally resourceful and can capitalize on opportunity. Seek the council of an older person.

Mental discipline is good for business. A tidy work place is necessary for what you need to do. Organize yourself and your environment.

Mercury Parallel Chiron

CONCEPTS UNITE WITH MENTORING

MAVERICK IDEAS

Read and write about holistic health practices. Assume a maverick stance to criticism.

Mars Parallel Jupiter

EXTRA ENERGY AND POWER

You are an active, competitive person. You're blessed with an abundance of explosive energy and courage. You are motivated by your ideals. You just keep going and going and going. Sometimes, you're a rash hothead. You're known for your stamina and your persistent luck.

Saturn Parallel Uranus

DECISIONS UNITE WITH LIBERATION

You have a strong independent streak and the ability to persuade the masses. A good tactic for you is lawful progress. One way or another, new ideas and technologies will play a decisive pivotal role in your destiny. As you have unique terms for success, yours is a somewhat curious fate. To get more power you need to make the most of advanced technologies and of the wisdom of the past.

Saturn Contraparallel Chiron

DECISIONS BRING OUT TALENT FOR MENTORING

Break a wall of silence. You could do some healing work with men, especially around issues of defensiveness and vulnerability. To gain more power, get closer to those in power.

Jupiter Retrograde

FORCE OF ENCOURAGEMENT IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARD MOTION)

It hasn't been easy for you to find your place in the community. You're more philosophical and meditative than most people. Somewhat socially reclusive, you often prefer your own company. Paradoxically, you have a great need to belong to a group. This is one of your most basic choices: Will you sustain the effort to create a place for yourself in the community, or will you become progressively more unhappy, isolated and alienated?

TIP: If you're not happy with social conditions, retreat, reconsider and find a creative way to rebel.

Search out groups of people who share your belief systems and with whom you are psychologically attuned. This may take some time to find the proper fit. The people that you are looking for are out of the ordinary, uncommon and atypical. Consider starting a local chapter of a national or global organization.

Neptune Retrograde

FANTASY FORCE IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARD MOTION)

You're a bit self-absorbed with past difficulties and anger from the past. Sometimes you sail on wave after wave of uncharted space. In order to stay focused you need an annual retreat to distill your inspiration and your creative juices. You can make daydreams real. It's your choice; you can be a channel for higher or lower spiritual forces.

Pluto Retrograde

CLEANSING FORCE IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARDS MOTION)

Become aware of your deeply seated psychological motivations. Recognizing and grappling with your repressed desires and your suppressed anger will benefit you tremendously. Among the benefits are: increased energy, productivity and peace of mind, body and soul. Spend some time alone contemplating and meditating.

Chiron Retrograde

MENTORING FORCE IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARD MOTION)

The teachings that you were exposed to early in your life may not be the ones that work for you. A standard public school curriculum may not provide the education you require. You may need to search out a mentor or spend money on special teachers. It's likely that you will have to keep searching for the knowledge you need whatever that may be.
