Chapter 1. Your Most Important Cosmic Factors

Four or more planets in Water signs

A CUP OF YOUR LOVE

A great deal of your time is spent in the world of feelings, emotions and intuitions. For the most part, your life is experienced as an ebb and flow of emotional tides and currents. You usually react strongly to the emotional atmosphere of any given situation. You don't deal with people so much by their outward appearance as you do by their inner state. You seem to know things intuitively and have some degree of psychic power. Your best communication is often nonverbal.

You are very impressionable though you try to hide it. Since intangibles play a great role in your life, practicality or intellectualism isn't necessarily your thing.

Few things bring you greater happiness than a successful, close, personal relationship. You have an innate understanding of the interconnectedness and interdependence of all forms of life. Empathy, compassion and emotional rapport can be your strongest virtues. However, not many people are ready to merge the way you are. Learn to recognize and respect other peoples' boundaries. Because of your constant awareness of other peoples' emotions, you need to insure your privacy and to practice some form of daily prayer or meditation.

TIP: Master an art form such as poetry, music, photography or dance. You can do it Ralph Nader.

All things aquatic and nautical fascinate you; you are in your natural element when surrounded by water. So, get yourself a hot tub, a waterbed, an aquarium and a fountain. Or live by a great body of water. Because of your heightened sensitivity to fluids you are advised to drink purified water and to purchase and service a water-filtration system for your home.

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.

YOUR FORCE OF HABIT IS STRONG

More than likely, you're determined, purposeful and persistent. You could also be more introspective, strong-willed, slow and deliberate than most people. Before you act, you like to turn things over and over. Maybe you're more than a touch inflexible and stubborn. At any rate, you are not easily pushed, pulled or pressured. Once you've made up your mind, you stand your ground with firm conviction.

Once you make up your mind and are willing to pay the price, you usually get what you want. It may take time, and you may have to overcome obstacles, but that is no matter. If you are committed, you are a powerhouse. After you overcome inertia, you're persevering, steady and stable.

Paradoxically, you're iconoclastic and yet you fit in socially. Your innovation, charisma and photogenic qualities give you a big super star qualities. You will be famous. How much is up to you and your ambitions. Your stars give you much favorable publicity. You do well in acting, astrology and the media.

INSTINCTS BRING OUT TALENT FOR DECISIONS

You can positively relate to people by searching your feelings, being objective and then doing your duty to resolve some of the alienation that you are experiencing.

You may do some of your best relating with an older person. You need emotional support as well as practical and immediate answers. Learn patience and perseverance.

Learn to draw upon your own inner strength and security and problem solving abilities. Learn to control your emotions without repressing them. Get beyond your parents emotional limitations. Get beyond the suspicions and traumas of childhood.

TIP: Your self esteem fluctuates up and down. It is not static. Take control.

Discipline with your diet can lead to the achievement of other ambitions. In time, people will appreciate the work you do on yourself.

You have a natural ability to manage all types of affairs. You will successfully relate to people once you learn tactful ways to remind them of their duties and responsibilities.

Mercury Contraparallel Neptune

CONCEPTS BRING OUT TALENT FOR FANTASY

Your imagination can work overtime. You can paint pictures with words. You can think on your feet. You can become a super salesperson. Some of your most creative work is done unwittingly, as if you are attuned to a faraway source. You could be an actor, a dreamer, a mystic, a liar, a faith healer, a psychic and probably are some combination thereof.

There is something artistic about your voice. Develop your musical and dramatic talents. Learn to deliver your lines with something extra.

Instead of letting your imagination play tricks on you, work to communicate meaningful and significant information. Since you can unconsciously attune yourself to other people's thoughts and motivations, you need to stay centered, balanced and grounded. You are naturally psychic and prophetic. Organization is a key to your success.

TIP: Read Conquering the Paper Pile-up by Stephanie Culp. It will tell you how to sort, organize, file, and store every piece of paper in your home and office. ISBN 0-89879-410-2.

Learn a middle path between fantasy and reality. Be creative without being an escapist. Your imaginative powers are second to none, and you could create for a living. With an extra creative effort, you could turn your richest fantasies into reality.

MASS MEDIA PHENOMENON

Talk about a popular public figure, you were made to perform. You have a natural flair for multi media communications and syndicated messages. Find your audience. Get in front of the microphones and cameras. All the world's a stage and you are a superstar. You can pull off big surprises. You can become a broadcast or film star. Your exploits belong on prime time TV. The heavens have a taste of riches and renown in store for you. Even if your self-image and low self-esteem keep you from Olympian heights, you must understand that you are no mere mortal. Make your mark on the world.

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.

CONCEPTUAL FORCE IS TURNED WITHIN (APPARENT BACKWARD MOTION)

There is more to your mind than meets the eye. In your early years, you were in your own little world, focused internal. As you age and mature, your focus will become more external. Your mind will move into higher gears, and learning will become easier.

You may have started your life self-conscious and shy, especially about speech and communications. To those who do not know any better, you may appear absentminded. You are, in fact, contemplative and attuned to and aware of subtle psychological states. You just can't always explain what's happening.

You naturally learn through absorption. Make learning easier; get a copy of The Brain Gym. This little booklet will show you simple tricks to make you smarter.

In time you may develop special communications skills and make your mark on the world. Along the way, to make life easier and more fun, learn to make some small talk and deal naturally with casual acquaintances. Stay alert for changing signposts.

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.
