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 Cardinal signs

YOU DO YOUR OWN THING

You like to start things and take the initiative. You have to act, but do not like to be told what to do. You are restless, energetic, driving, outgoing, opportunistic and ambitious. You're full of primal energy and do not cope well with direct and constant supervision. You're suited for self-employment, or the kind of work where you are in charge. Probably, you're more busy than bored.

TIP: Learn to delegate in order to become a better leader.

You've a strong outward orientation to career, love, home and family. Deal directly with surroundings and others.

Saturn Parallel Neptune

DECISIONS UNITE WITH FANTASY. ARTISTIC INNOVATIONS

Meditative work will play a pivotal role in your life. You can get more power by becoming a high spirited pragmatist, and a practical idealist. Learn to give up cheap thrills in the present moment in order to secure something more valuable and useful in the future.

TIP: Use a cassette recorder to capture your creations and ideas.

If you're a somewhat strange bird, it may be because you are part of the hippie generation. You can have a way of creating chaos where there is order and creating order where there is chaos. You have quite an imagination and can cultivate a talent for spiritual work. Once you find your faith, you can dissolve any and all fears. You can create many practical applications for what your imagination conceives. To insure your success, stay centered and do your share of spiritual work.

Mars beyond the Tropic of Capricorn

SUPER ATHLETIC POWER UNIQUE MOTIVATIONS AND TALENT

You have more energy than is humanly possible and you have enough energy to power your team to the top. You have the makings to become a professional athlete, musician, writer, fine artist or performing artist.

You could find that your energy runs in cycles with major highs and lows. Sometimes you only motivate yourself through sheer willpower. Other times you have so much energy that you may not feel the need to sleep. Then you can become a dare-devil and a courageous fighter with a furious anger.

TIP: Find an exercise program that you are comfortable with and do the physical thing early in your day. This will take some getting used to. However, in time, you will speed up your metabolism and increase your energy levels.

It may be relatively easy for you to spark up a relationship and more challenging to sustain one.
