Chapter 1. Your Most Important Cosmic Factors

Fewer than two planets in Water signs

ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS

Have people said that you are out of touch with feelings? Do some folks have difficulty conveying their emotions to you? Do you tend to ignore, discount or deny sentiments?

You strive to be emotionally self-sufficient or above it all. Yet, your emotional needs are stronger because they are unconsciously and habitually repressed. Work on compassion, empathy and emotional rapport.

It is even possible that you don't have much past life experience as a human being on planet earth. In that case, as you age and mature you can become more sensitive to the feelings of this world.

TIP: Water is a chief symbol for feelings. Bring the water element more into your life. Get a hot tub, water bed, fish tank, fountain, and pool. Live closer to a great body of water.

Lend an ear to someone who worked with feelings. Listen to Beethoven's 9th symphony.

Four or more planets in Earth signs

YOU COULD MANAGE A BUSINESS

You tend to be the practical sort: down to earth and concerned with material comfort and security. You favor "the real world." Inspirations, feelings and ideas don't mean so much to you as do practical applications, immediate ramifications and tangible results. Concrete facts are your thing. If you can't see it, smell it, hear it, feel it, taste it or touch it, you figure it isn't significant. Dreams and theoretical considerations might not mean much to you.

Being pragmatic, you don't usually take chances with your time, money, energy or your feelings. You tend to be dependable, although folks in the fast lane may find you a bit conservative and dull.

If you find that you're becoming bored or depressed, you should realize that your values are misplaced, and that your sense of security is false. If you're not happy, change your status quo and embrace the unknown. When paralyzed by fears and inhibitions, breathe deeply and move slowly and deliberately towards what you want.

If you put your mind to it, you could cultivate your green thumb. Outward beauty is important to you. Working with your hands can pay off. You can shape the materials of the earth into sellable products. You're well suited to have your own business, provided that you've chosen it.

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.

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.
