Chapter 1. Your Most Important Cosmic Factors

Four or more planets in Fire signs

THE FLAMES OF YOUR PASSION

You tend to be active, dynamic, mobile and assertive. You know that you're special and enjoy a charmed life. Intuition is your thing and you live by your own code, which is usually positive and life affirming. Competitive and flamboyant, you give people a strong and immediate impression of who you are. Timid and slow folk may find you overwhelming, rash and willful. You are more or less self-motivated.

TIP: When dealing with regular people and mere mortals, be patient and polite.

You may or may not carry a vision of the future. If you do, it is your passion and inspiration that can make you the hub of the wheel and an inspiration to others. Once you are sufficiently inspired, you can accomplish virtually anything. On the contrary, when you are without a vision, an aspiration or a goal, you become a candidate for spontaneous combustion.

TIP: If you are a hot head or have dry skin, drink several glasses of pure water every day.

You need to build up your energy and avoid burn out. Make the most of cat naps.

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.

Sun Parallel Pluto

SELF-EXPRESSION UNITES WITH CLEANSING EXTRA COMPETITIVE POWER

You can become a star by dealing with power issues and power complexes. You can be obsessive and extreme in your drive for power. Your physical, psychological and spiritual desires are all very strong. Once you consolidate your position, you will advance. Once you define and commit yourself to a goal, your physical strength, mental energy and creative powers make you unstoppable.

TIP: Your power is volcanic Melissa Etheridge. Within you is a crucible of creation.

You can take up a cause. You can right some wrongs. You can fight some injustices. You can change yourself and the environment. If anybody can begin again and restructure for change, it is you. You can create extreme success for yourself. Your willpower, tenacity and resourcefulness are extraordinary.

Moon Contraparallel Neptune

INSTINCTS BRING OUT TALENT FOR FANTASY

Part of you is sensitive, romantic and subject to changing moods. You can relate to people through music and art. Find your tune and dance to it. You can experience spiritual, mental and physical healing. Refine your inner vision.

People see your aura and are drawn by your mystique. You can make the most sensuous dreams come vividly true. You take an emotional approach to life and love and are often ready to indulge a fantasy. Try a ride on a waterbed.

You can learn to make excellent sales presentations and do creative work. Small sacrifices can help you to obtain specific goals. You can be so idealistic that you need to keep your world straight. Give yourself an edge by clearly defining what you want and then going for it.

You tend to be kind and forgiving. You will relate more successfully to people once you learn to express your feelings in an earthly, sensuous, physical way. Live out some fantasies. Enjoy yourself.

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 Pluto

DECISIONS UNITE WITH CLEANSING

You may not be happy until you've enforced monumental changes. People may think of you as something of a control freak. How you can get more power is an idea that may obsess you along with status and ambition. Respect, for you, is probably not an option, it is a mandate. You can even learn to access secret or occult powers. You can become a great force for far reaching and long lasting change.

TIP: To increase stability accept uncertainty.

Mercury beyond the Tropic of Cancer

EXTRAORDINARY COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS

There is no doubt about it Melissa Etheridge. You are a "Mercurial Character." You can be: the messenger, reporter, critic, trickster, educator, whiz kid, D.J., pixie and voyeur. You can develop a unique way with words. You're encouraged to learn another language, perhaps Spanish or a computer language.

Pay attention to themes of "twoness" and you can double your good luck. For example, you can double your income by developing skill as a paid speaker and published author.

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.

Saturn Retrograde

DECISIVE FORCE IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARD MOTION)

Something in you bridles against tradition, conventional wisdom and authority. You don't like to be told what to do. Evaluate when and where it is important to take on the establishment. Get Kerry Johnson's The Science of Self Discipline, available from Nightingale-Conant at 1-800-323-5552. Nightingale-Conant offers an unconditional, 30-day money-back guarantee.

TIP: Besides the hard ways, there are other ways to learn. If you can learn from hard knocks, then you can learn from pats on the back.

You can do some of your best work alone. Ironically, in your later years, you may become a leader.

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.
