INTRODUCTION

This is an Astro-Analysis based on the exact time, date, and place of birth calculated on the details supplied.

It is not intended to predict a budding mega-star or a future world leader - the objective is to provide some insights into the psyche of Juliette to give everyone concerned a better chance of understanding, and hopefully helping this special child through the difficult growing times that they will face.

The astrological Chart is a little like a jigsaw puzzle without the benefit of a picture to follow. Some pieces are easy to recognise and they fit together beautifully. Another batch might fit well - but seem unrelated to the first "batch". Several straggly bits probably seem to belong to another world altogether, but that is the human psyche. The depths are immeasurable with many, many forms, faces, and dimensions.

Any Astrological chart will have seemingly several contradictions - again - just like human nature and our psychological make-up. But these apparent differences are all shades, shapes, and forms of the full picture. These "contradictions" should be seen as a balancing factor, knocking some of the edges off our sharp corners or, sharpening up the "softness" in the areas defined.

It should also be recognised that all of us have our own very personal lessons to learn in this life and these lessons unfold throughout the span of our entire life on earth. The learning experiences will not be systematic - they will be random episodes and experiences. Some interpretations of this Chart will give a glimpse of these very personal lessons that are an obvious part of this little one's character. Others may be so private or subtle that the child "learns" all by itself. And then there will be further lessons that will not have emerged or even seem significant yet.

It is hoped that the brief explanations throughout this analysis will help to explain the meanings and terminology of basic Astrology to give as much understanding as possible.

The two most valuable things that we can give to any child are our unconditional love and our time.

CONTENTS

The following passages give a comprehensive summary of the character traits of this child and a brief description of each section explains the specifics. It has been kept simple deliberately because, as mentioned in the introduction, Astrology is a complex subject, and the intention is to clarify, not confuse.

Included are:

The Sun/Moon sign combination

The Ascendant, when the birth time is known

The Sun, Moon and planets in the Signs and, when the birth time is known, the Houses

The major aspects

The Balance of the Elements and Modalities

The strongest Signs, Houses and Planets

Nothing is quite like having a Chart done on a "one-to-one" basis, but this enormous electronic age has opened the way for anyone who is interested to have a closer look at this ancient science and benefit from its wisdom.

Planets in Signs and Houses

Sun in Pisces, Moon in Capricorn

The "SUN SIGN" is the one part of the Astrological Chart that most people know. It is the inner core that drives and motivates us. It is our own true light. When we read and discuss our Sun signs we can easily recognise bits that fit, and maybe, question bits that do not seem to apply. The contrast noted is often related to the power of the other luminary - the Moon.

The Moon is our instinctive response. It reflects our earliest conditioning. The Moon governs our emotional responses, - our likes and dislikes - our innate sensitivities. Often the Moon sign is related to the maternal influence, or perhaps, the general home environment. Remember that this powerful response is inherent. Most of us try to improve on our own nurturing even when we feel that our childhood was wonderful. We want to adapt to the world we are living in now and want our kids to get the best out of "their world". But, even so, we instinctively revert to our own experiences without knowing why. That is how powerful the Moon influence is. We, in turn, treat our kids emotionally in the much the same way as we were treated when tiny. For this reason, the maternal influence is a part of these interpretations - as a natural influence that flows through the subconscious.

With this in mind one would think that all kids would have the same Moon sign as the maternal figure, but this is not necessarily so either. Life doesn't stand still, we are forever growing and each child can be very different. We "respond" accordingly.

Both the Sun and the Moon are the two major players. When in a very different sign this does complicate the projected personality. This can be an essential but difficult learning curve that can be confusing for all concerned. Our Sun can try so hard to shine only to feel over-shadowed by a powerful, or competitive, Moon. Some of us will need to learn to accept and understand our emotional conditioning and allow the Sun the right to burst through, combining both strengths in a positive way.

This combination attempts to tie together both of these very significant forces and come up with a sharper, more focused picture.

Some signs are very compatible - others compete.

Juliette has the Sun in Pisces and the Moon in Capricorn. This is a bricks and mortar combination of Earth and Water that uses two very different elements well. But, Juliette will have a rather muddy persona that is difficult to read. There will be plenty of patience, an eye for practicality, but also a whole lot of deep sensitivity. There will be times when the head and the heart come from strikingly different places, which will be confusing. The nature can be introverted because of these differences, with Juliette not knowing quite what path to follow. However, with maturity, and accepting the gifts of both the Sun and the Moon, the imagination and the common sense will work together beautifully. There will be a confidence and a self-belief that will be solid and valuable. On the negative side, these kids can be highly resistant to change. They can get bogged down in the tried and true and refuse to accept progress or alternatives. They can become moralistic and staunch, with a tunnel vision. Juliette will probably seem to gravitate to similar friends throughout life in an effort to preserve a strict and unbending point of view.

Juliette will be a gentle child, tuned in to the environment and very perceptive.

But there is the ability to read what is possible and what is not. There will be a quiet determination, and though Juliette will avoid direct confrontation, when the heart is set on an end, that goal will be reached. There is a lot of patience and if an idea does not work the first time, and the intention was serious, Juliette will head back to the drawing board for another plan of attack. This determined kid does not give up easily and yet can be pessimistic at times. Juliette will work very hard to please, but this little one does need recognition. Both of these zodiac signs tend to lack in confidence, so Juliette will need to be made to feel safe, secure and loved. The nature should be gentle and easy, but if you do find that Juliette is being awkward, or throws a mood, investigate. The reasons are not usually unfounded. But the ability to expose the origins of the hurt and frustration will not be easy for Juliette. These kids often feel that they have to cope alone.

These types have a good sense of humour with the ability to laugh at themselves, but the Capricorn Goat will not be treated or taken for a fool. The clever wit can be used in a subtle but wry way that can stop any foe in their tracks. A powerful understanding of human nature will develop which will make Juliette a rather shrewd judge of character. The inner strength should not be underestimated. In many ways, the insecurity that seems a natural part of this combination simply strengthens the character in adulthood. However it is common, too, for this combination to use bluff, and hide their vulnerability away. You may think you know this child, but it is entirely possible that you are merely getting what they are allowing you to see. The heart and the soul will be private property and simply "not available" to the world at large.

Juliette combines the Moon in Capricorn with a Cancer sign Ascendant. Both of these zodiac signs do need constant reassurances in childhood. These kids are seldom born confident and suffer badly if not given the attention and love that is needed. Juliette will simply withdraw when under pressure, then fret badly and wonder what it is that has caused a problem. Unless encouraged to do so, this child will not feel strong enough to confront the anxious moments and discuss the issues involved.

These are fragile kids that seem tougher than what they are. As life evolves, Juliette will seem to make good decisions based on practical knowledge, but a lot of the time the help of serious intuition will have played a major hand as well. So, the "muddy" character that is the combination of Earth and Water is more of a camouflage than a boring aspect of the personality. The Capricorn Moon tends to play their cards close to the chest while the Cancerian Ascendant always likes to suggest a hint of mystery or, perhaps, privacy even at the best of times.

With maturity, there will indeed be a sound sense of ambition. There will be an attraction to expensive possessions, probably elaborate real estate, but the "snob" side of the nature will be well veiled. The underlying factor is security rather than avarice. There is also a great need to construct and preserve a home that will be there forever. Both of the signs are very "family" orientated, so Juliette will always make the domestic environment a big priority.

The Capricorn Moon sign can indicate a maternal figure that is busy with a career or a whole lot of other responsibilities. This person may not have the time to indulge Juliette with the emotional support that Juliette craves. The parental influences could be older, or with "old fashioned" values perhaps. This little tot will soon learn ways of being "noticed" by adjusting to the tone that has been set - perhaps by trying very hard to be extra good and extra clever just like the big people. This can be why this Moon produces kids who hide their emotions and become highly self-critical. There can be a feeling that there is no room for error and no time for childish play.

Cancer Ascendant

The Ascendant is the exact degree in the zodiac, which was rising on the horizon at the time of birth. The term Ascendant and Rising sign are the same. Every 4 minutes the degree of the Ascendant changes. This is why it is so important to know the exact time of birth. This is the starting point of the astrological wheel and defines the signs on each house cusp in an anti-clockwise direction.

The actual houses and their meanings are just as important as the signs on the cusp. The sign of the Ascendant is as important as the Sun sign, and its effects are often more obvious to other people. The Ascendant represents how the personality appears to others. Each sign has its own potential strengths, which should be developed, and weaknesses, which should be minimised through understanding.

Juliette may run into problems if the rising sign is quite different in nature from the Sun sign. There will be conflict between an element of the inner self and the projected image. So, if any recurring social problems do occur, it is necessary to look within.

The Ascendant in the chart is very important. It indicates the ways in which we interact with the world around us, the energies we put out, and the energies we receive from others.

Aspects to the Ascendant indicate what kinds of interaction we experience with others, the impressions we make on people, and the areas of our life that most involve other people. Often these aspects tell us about ourselves.

Juliette has Cancer as the Ascendant, or Rising sign, which is a water sign. These kids are emotional, sensitive, moody and very receptive. Cancerians love to nurture. They like a warm friendly home that they can call their own. They can be very sentimental about memorabilia, photographs etc. - they like to keep the past in their sight. This is a very traditional little person, very attached to familiar surroundings. Where these kids live during their childhood will always be important to them. Even later, when they have grown up and perhaps moved to a new area, Juliette will prefer places that "feel" like home.

Juliette will make a wonderful friend that can be relied on for tea and sympathy when problems arise. These kids instinctively know to treat all disclosures in the strictest confidence. They do take being a friend very seriously and can be quite hurt if they are not appreciated. Because of this, they are somewhat cautious and prefer any changes in their personal environment to happen slowly. Juliette will like to have time to adjust - and will actually prefer no changes. When these kids meet new people, they are friendly enough, but they are reserved until they get to know that person quite well. Juliette will actually be quite shy. However, once trust has been established, they trust completely. Consequently, the friends made while young will probably be there forever.

Juliette has a sensitivity that makes it difficult to take criticism or harsh words from anyone - especially from loved ones. These children respond to life and situations through their feelings. They are touchy, and tend to take things personally. Like the crab, the protective hard shell is their haven, or their house that hides a very vulnerable and soft underside. Like the crab, when confronted the Cancerian will often retreat into its shell and scuttle away to think things over. When this child feels hurt, they will tend to withdraw and avoid others. They will probably sulk. However, the crab will never forget. And the crab does not give up - they wait their time. Sometimes these kids pretend not to care, so that they do actually seem very insensitive. But this is just the shell they are showing - Juliette will hate every minute of being cold and unfeeling.

The home environment that Juliette grows up in is likely to have all the trappings of being as beautiful and as elegant as the financial situation permits. But one parent is likely to be rather aggressive and impatient whilst the other seems to be continually trying to keep the peace. One parent may have an active life outside of the home while the other is left to keep the home fires burning. Whatever, this sensitive little person with the Cancerian Ascendant might spend a lot of time waiting for the bubble to burst. This could be why they become so attached to familiar things, why they will love their home and love their family, but could also feel that their security can be threatened at any time.

If the childhood home is not a stable and secure place, this sensitive youngster will feel that void most of their life. Therefore, it is important that Juliette does have security from the beginning.

The ruling planet in this chart for Juliette is the Moon - the ruler of Cancer. So, pay special attention to the very emotional and sensitive Moon, as this will be a very strong and noticeable part of the personality. The house that the Moon falls in will indicate where the light and the shadows of the Moon are the strongest.

Sun in Pisces

The Sun in the Chart is our personal light. It is our vitality, our creativity, and our basic ego. It is the Sun that provokes and promotes emotional security. The Sun represents our individuality. Within the Sun sign is our reason for being, our sense of pride, and our confidence. This is the basis of the search for the real person within. The sign occupied by the Sun at birth describes the nature of these basic drives and patterns. It describes the desire to be important to the people that matter and the ability to be independent and self-reliant. It will give us an indication of the methods used to develop psychologically.

The House will describe the areas of life that will be important and play a major role in our lives. It is here that we have the tools and the gifts to use as they were intended. But we may have to learn some vital lessons before this happens.

Much more is revealed by the aspects to the Sun. Positive aspects (trines, conjunctions or sextiles) are good indicators of self-reliance, confidence and the ability to stand on one's own two feet. The difficult aspects (squares, oppositions, and inconjunctions) will suggest psychological problems which can have a profound effect on life. However, learning to deal with these difficulties ultimately produces strength and understanding of the self. The rewards of working through these problems are great. The efforts will be productive. Sure, work is needed, but it is worth the effort. However, whenever the planet, Saturn, brushes up against the Sun, it will suppress and depress the energy of the most exuberant Sun sign.

The Sun is the "self", the "life path", the "true" personality behind all the facades and defences we all put up.

The child will start to grow into the Sun sign during adolescence which can be another reason why these years can be so dramatic and traumatic - this is just another set of growing pains that we all have to endure. The actual Sun sign is often not fully developed until nearer 30 years of age, but the inner spirit will emerge and glimpses will be seen throughout the growing years.

Juliette has the Sun in Pisces. The Pisces child is sensitive and idealistic. They are "tuned in" to the environment and aware of everything happening around them. They will pick up a bad atmosphere in an instant and literally "feel" any bad vibes or bad feelings. This is the "dreamer" of the Zodiac - creative, imaginative and often a bit mystical with many "friends" around them that only they can see. But some discipline is needed to keep these little dreamers on track. These kids need their space to collect their thoughts but must be drawn back into the real world if they go too far or for too long.

The Pisces child can be temperamental and emotional. In times of stress, they can close off completely. They are so very sensitive and very easily hurt but do need to be taught that a bit of reality is vital to their emotional well-being. These kids are usually rather shy and should not be forced into being what they are not. But make sure the shyness is not total insecurity and a total lack of confidence. Make these gentle kids feel good within and proud of just who they are. It is too easy for them to try too hard to please and so stifle their own personality. Try to make a big deal out of the natural generosity and kindness and help make Juliette feel proud. The world needs these sensitive kids.

Juliette will be kind, and loving but easily influenced by others and very easily led. There can be a difficulty being able to say, "No." These kids are often as fond of animals as they are of the human race. They just love to "care" and to "take care of", but these little people need lots of love and encouragement back as well. They may need to learn to accept the love and warmth that they are so fond of giving. The true Piscean character can slip into the role of the self-imposed martyr which would be a great waste of the sensitivity that is here.

These kids can be very artistic and creative with such a powerful imagination. It would be a shame not to nurture these talents which might not always be obvious. The Pisces child will seldom demand anything - even attention.

If there are lots of planets in the sign before or after Pisces (Aries or Aquarius), this little one will be a lot tougher and far more out-going.

Sun in the Tenth House

10th House: This House points to the dominant parent. That parent's attitude, expectations, and ambitions for the child are reflected here. Here is an indication of how the child deals with responsibility and with authority. An ambition to "be someone" or to be recognised in this life is associated with the powerful 10th House. The sweet smell and taste for power and success emerges from this very zenith of the natal chart.

The Sun in the Tenth House is powerful, no matter what. Success will come if the right training or direction is given. Juliette will have some big ideas and will work very well independently. It is likely that there could be difficulty actually working with others as this little character will have its own ideas, not being especially interested in listening to anyone else. This person wants to get somewhere, has ambition, and wants to be in control of their own fate.

However as a child, this ambition and determination can cause a few problems. These kids are pretty pumped up and can clash quite badly with those in authority. They will question and talk back knowing that simply accepting everything is not opening up the brain enough. Teachers and the likes may not see it that way. It can be taken as a seeming lack of respect, so discipline in learning to "button up" at times will make life easier for Juliette in the long run.

The Sun in the Tenth House points to a powerful relationship with the Father (or authoritative person). This particular figure can teach Juliette so much. If it happens that the natural father is not around, another adult will be important in a fatherly way and will be a great influence. But whoever, there will be arguments from time to time. This child will disagree and try to rebel. But the mutual respect will be very important and it will be there, although the "Father" could question that at times.

Initially, this child can perhaps leap into the wrong career, but it will be experience and nothing will be lost. The Tenth House Sun often suggests fame and honour or sometimes scandal. No matter, this position is one that suggests Juliette will be noticed. With maturity, the ambition and the determination will win respect. It could be on a small scale, perhaps just on the local scene, but this child will lead by example and be quite inspirational. Few with this elevated Sun remain obscure.

Moon in Capricorn

The Moon is our instinctive, emotional response. It is the innermost feelings and sensitivities that stem from the subconscious. Our Moon will always be our natural reaction when our defences are down. The Moon reflects our early conditioning, our habits, and the automatic responses that come from our early environment. Often all of this relates directly to the "Mother" figure. It is perhaps the "child" in all of us.

In reading a child's chart, the Moon, in the house, the sign and the aspects, needs to be given special understanding. These are the indications on where Juliette could need special attention very early, to cope with feelings of insecurity, lack of confidence, or a low self-esteem. Recognising these needs, and working through them, will help to produce a secure and confident adult.

The Moon often reflects the "Mother figure" in our lives, which is consequently why the Moon figures so strongly in a child's chart. The placement of the Moon often describes the relationship with the Mother, which is why the "Mother" is mentioned in many areas of the Moon explanations.

The Moon sign is the more noticeable personality trait in the formative years. We tend to "grow into our Sun sign as we develop and become the person we were meant to be. The Moon in the Chart signifies the unconscious attitudes and feelings and whether or not we feel supported and accepted. It is also the accumulated attitude reflected by our own past and the historical past. The Moon will echo values and instincts that are picked up from our early environmental experiences.

This luminary is the most important factor after the influences of the Sun and the Ascendant. It describes how we express our emotions and how well we deal with them. In some cases, the ever-important Sun can put up some defences against the Moon. When very different, we can struggle to assimilate our emotions and our reason. Like the other planets, the Moon has strong and weak points in any sign, and we should try to develop the strong points. If the Moon is in compatible company, we will express our emotions very easily and we will be sensitive to other people's needs and feelings. With competition, the Moon can mean that there can be difficulty letting our feelings flow. The Moon and the Ascendant can be of an awkward mix, making the projected personality, and how we actually feel inside, quite different. But, this is all a part of the character and we are well able to bind the differences and round off the disposition.

The Moon and the emotional problems it produces can sound negative but this is not so. This is a beautiful and fundamental part of our deepest psyche that we must all accept and use to its fullest advantage.

Juliette was born with the Moon in Capricorn. Even as youngsters, these kids seem to be older than what they are, because they always seem so responsible and reliable. Children their own age and even kids' games do not actually appeal too much. Often this little one will have to be told to take a break from study or homework and have a bit of fun. They develop strong objectives quite early and will be aware of a strong ambition to actually "do something" with their lives. These kids will be rather serious and quite shy.

Juliette may, however, have difficulty understanding and coping with the feelings and sensitivities. These children seem to have been born logical and need to be taught emotional. They also seem to have been born feeling inadequate and will search for signs of true acceptance from a very young age. It is imperative that this little one does feel the warmth and the love from their parent(s) because without this their lives can be swamped with emotional difficulties. From birth almost right through those formative years, this Moon sign needs more emotional support than any other sign. Encouragement, praise and recognition for the hard work which they put in as they grow, needs to be acknowledged to make these kids feel good within. Without this, they will feel a failure at a tender age.

Juliette will set such high standards, and be a tough judge and jury in any goals that are set. It is important for this child to learn to find the confidence to believe that they are OK, and that people really do like them. This is so important, but can be difficult to teach. In many ways, these kids will learn for themselves, but the process can take a long time. These serious and cautious young people are so capable, but must develop self-esteem to truly be content and at ease internally. They need to feel comfortable in taking a risk now and again, to be stupid if they want. It is all confidence.

However, although the childhood years can be heavy going for these kids, it usually puts them in good stead for the adult years. As they develop, gain confidence, and feel good about themselves, they will find that they can actually do anything that they want with their life. They have good judgement, sound intuition, and a tenacity with which to see anything through. Juliette will have ambition and, once set on the right path, will get to exactly the intended position. Once that aim has been set, nothing will stop this child. An enormous asset that will emerge with the serious Capricorn Moon is a delicious sense of humour. Juliette does take life seriously, but the ability to see the funny side, and express the imagination, will be clever and very subtle. The "clown" should be encouraged, so when you see glimpses of this side of the personality, sit back and be entertained.

Moon in the Seventh House

7th House: This House is about close friends and best friends. It involves relationships and learning to interact with others. It is about sharing and receiving. The lessons from this House will mould the character that will evolve into the "outer self" through interaction. The seventh House will always involve "intimate associates or friends".

Juliette has the Moon in the 7th House. These kids are sensitive with deep emotions and emotional needs. They will tend to gravitate towards friends who are caring and who are not afraid to share how they feel. These kids will seem to know instinctively with whom they will get along and with whom they will not. Friends are all important to Juliette, and strong and close attachments will be cemented from an early age. Interaction and solid attachments are a fundamental need, vital to growth and development. But, these kids will always be looking for that bit of personal security, although they may not be aware of this. Being so congenial and genuine, they will bend over backwards to please. They can fall into the trap of "putting up" with too much. This little one will need a bit of guidance to realise that not everyone is as nice as they imagine. These kids do need to develop the confidence to quit while they are ahead, rather than stay in a relationship too long. Because of this emotional dependency, this Moon placement often marries early.

These kids like and love deeply and sincerely, but will need the reassurance that these precious feelings are shared and returned. Juliette will not cope with a bad atmosphere. There is a real need for peace and tranquillity.

This child has a lovely disposition. Being so popular, Juliette will always be in demand socially, with the ability to fit in just about anywhere. There is a need for a bit of encouragement to be more independent. These kids need to try to learn to enjoy their own company now and again and not be afraid to be alone.

There is a strong desire for social acceptance, so these kids will always put their best foot forward. They like to be well presented, as appearances are very important to the moral and ego. Juliette will be easily accepted, but will need to learn to develop more confidence and not rely quite so much on others.

Mercury in Pisces

The little planet Mercury is the mythical Messenger of the Gods. This planet is never far away from the Sun, often falling in the same sign at the time of birth, so it does tend to add emphasis to our Sun Sign. Even when Mercury is in the sign before or after the Sun, this is always considered a very personal planet.

Through Mercury, we learn all the basics in life. It indicates how we communicate, because it is here where we begin to watch and copy the rest of the family. This is the very beginning of questions and curiosity that fires up and fuels the learning process. From that point, we move on to recognising the senses, and so our personal tastes and style develops. We learn how to exchange ideas and show how clever we are. We start to question and analyse. We learn to reason and classify what we have absorbed and then stretch for more information.

Mercury is our first experience of moving out into the world beyond the back yard, armed with all that we have learned. Through this planet, our flexibility and dexterity is revealed. This planet covers the intellectual stimuli but it also has a say in how clever we are with our hands and how well balanced we are physically.

Mercury is also associated with the nervous system. This is a busy little planet at the best of times, and responsible for a big part of our intrinsic character. When put under too much pressure, the nervous system buckles. Mercury is indicative of our sense of humour, the body language we exude, and our powers of expression. This is the planet of logic and reason. So, Mercury is indeed a very important planet. It might be tiny, but it is very potent.

Mercury in Pisces will be ruled by powerful feelings. These children will follow their instincts rather than apply logic or reason. If it does not "feel" right, it is simply not right, to them.

Juliette will be sensitive, intuitive, and have a rich imagination. There is a danger that daydreams and fantasies can be far more exciting and interesting than the issue of taking in all those boring lessons at school. So drifting off can come quite easily. This child can head off to escapism in an instant. It is important that the creativity is drawn out here. All that wonderful imagination should be exploited and used to the fullest. The creative mind is at its strongest in this sign. However, a little bit of practicality has to be instilled, too. The major problem for these children is getting the confidence to express how they feel clearly and this could take a lot of encouragement and patience. There is a strong tendency to feel very insecure because these little ones are not interested in practical issues, and yet they know they should be.

There should be a natural love of the arts and music, and this is where this timid child might find the confidence to expose their inner thoughts and feelings. Their sense of imagery is quite unique. This very sensitive child is finely tuned into the environment. Juliette can be quite psychic and will certainly be very intuitive and perceptive. There is a certain naiveté in this gentle child's nature that will always be very appealing.

Mercury in the Tenth House

Mercury in the 10th House often points to either the father figure, or the authoritative figure, having a major hand in the development of this child. Learning and education will be very important to Juliette. Often the future or career will be well mapped out. With Mercury in this house, there will be a big need to be recognised as being a hard and efficient worker. These children do put in a lot of effort but they do like this effort to be noticed and acknowledged. However, Juliette will thrive on hard work.

There will be a respect for teachers and peers, especially those able to feed this intellect with valuable information. These children are serious and ambitious, and they are willing to put in the longest yards. Juliette is bound to want to go on to a university, or at least indulge in further education long after the minimum curriculum has been finished.

Even when quite young, Juliette will have a strong sense of logic. The interest will always lie in progress and stretching the learning capacity. The aim here is to extend the abilities as far as possible.

Juliette will develop excellent speaking and writing skills that will be used effectively in a later career. Attaining professional recognition will be a strong desire and the means to achieve this are wide and varied. Juliette could have several jobs before settling into a definite career. This is nothing to do with restlessness but more to do with a variety of talents and choices. There could also be a lot of travel attached to an eventual profession. However, during childhood, these youngsters do rely on their strong knowledge and ability to extend their confidence. If the facts are not clear or there are some grey areas, they will tend to clam up tight. Their objective is to be in total control, and to be totally correct.

Venus in Taurus

Venus is the planet of love. This tiny planet is responsible for the stirring of the soft and sensual pleasures of nature. Venus opens the doors of appreciation to beauty, harmony, creativity, and of course, love, and affection. Venus arouses and stimulates our senses.

Venus is important because it shows how youngsters interact. It is where children learn to share and give. Venus shows how Juliette attracts love and attention and also what and who Juliette is attracted to. This planet will indicate whether the basic nature is warm and affectionate or whether there is some reserve attached.

Venus is also about our creature comforts and possessions - what we need in life to feel good. Venus indicates our creativity and artistic talents and the ability to appreciate beauty. Good, bad, or unusual taste will be seen through Venus.

The house that Venus is in indicates the area in which artistic talent is expressed. This is where the expressions of sensual understanding will be valid and utilised. It can also suggest where Juliette may need special attention and nourishment, in order to learn how to interact with others.

For future reference, Venus in the signs, houses and aspects will be quite revealing about relationships with the opposite sex and matters of the heart.

With Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, in the sign of Taurus, Juliette will be quite the little romantic who will want lots of love and attention. These children are warm and cuddly and will love to 'touch' things. They are quite sensual. They will like to 'feel' textures, flowers, your skin, and hair - food. And then they will want to 'taste' as well. Play dough, painting or pastels will be a source of creative entertainment that Juliette should enjoy. Even a tiny garden plot, or potted seedlings, will fascinate. They will love pretty things, nice music, and pretty sounds. These children are generally very calm and placid most of the time. They are cheerful, relaxed, and fun to be around. They like to have a good time and like others to enjoy themselves too. Juliette will always be very well presented and will like to look nice. This child is also likely to be artistically inclined with a very pleasant voice.

Juliette will often be the one that starts a friendship or, later, a love relationship. These children know what they want, and are willing to go after it. This warm person will form lasting relationships. Best friends are likely to remain special for a very long time. But Juliette can expect too much from these friends as the nature is quite possessive and some jealousy can creep in when new kids arrive on the scene. Juliette will have to understand the meaning of 'the more the merrier' and find the confidence to accept and to allow special mates a bit of space.

Juliette will enjoy food and could develop a weight problem due simply to 'too much of the wrong foods'. Temptation can prove too tough. These kids have a lot of 'wants', but things seem to come to them a bit more easily than to others.

They can also have a real knack of getting others to do their share of the chores, so watch for this. There is a tendency to be lazy. Encourage Juliette not to depend on other people quite so much.

Venus in the Eleventh House

11th House: School friends, acquaintances, and any interaction with groups outside of the family environment. The developing of skills within social and sports clubs where expanding and sharing ideas and ideals is the issue. This house includes influential peer groups and help received along the way, which includes Hopes and inspiration.

This child with Venus in the 11th House is a very sociable person who really enjoys good company. They will get along very well with everyone. When these children are alone, they can start feeling isolated quite quickly. They are at their best in a group. Juliette will always be an excellent team player and will always be supportive of objective goals rather than personal gains. An ability to be an excellent organiser will emerge given the chance. Sharing ideas within a group can actually be an art form. Juliette will come up with creative and unusual concepts that will stimulate and motivate the collective minds and imaginations.

The natural reaction for Juliette will be to team up with friends that share a common interest. Often those interests can be a bit radical or different. The preference is for friends who are both sociable and fascinating. Juliette may be attracted to people who are intelligent and creative. Learning and sharing is of optimum importance; the more unusual types provide better nourishment than do the folk from suburbia. Juliette will not wear the 'dull' label or be associated with 'dull'. In adulthood, Juliette will probably gravitate toward rather gifted people who are motivated by their interests rather than by power or money.

Juliette will have a good knack for putting people at ease. These children will easily gain the trust and respect to be fully accepted. However, they do prefer to have a lot of friends rather than to form very close relationships. They like to have the freedom to move and expand at will, to not feel responsible or tied down in any way. Juliette can actually be quite cool and aloof if a friend wants more from the liaison than Juliette wants to give. Juliette does care deeply, but these children are not particularly emotional or dependent.

Mars in Pisces

Mars is essentially the "I am" in us. It is the "I -me -and -mine" - the basic, subjective ego. It is our energy, our initiative, and our drive. It is our aggression, our temperament, and our passion. Mars is the physical side of our psyche. A strong Mars makes for great sports people because they will be competitive with a real desire to win. Later in life, Mars indicates our sex drive.

This is a fiery little planet, so a strong Mars is a "fiery" little person who runs on high octane - one who will never know when to stop. The "water signs" can dilute this energy somewhat, or can perhaps drive the passion inward. The "fire" will then not be so obvious. However, once we get the hang of our Mars sign, it is an important part of us. It is the fuel on which we run.

Mars in Pisces produces emotions that are unpredictable and often intense. Much of the fire of Mars is drowned here. Juliette will be quite sensitive, and when feeling sad or unhappy, will not have much energy. People with Mars in Pisces often need a lot of sleep. Their emotions, and sometimes the emotions of others, wear them out.

The major problem with this position is that it is difficult for these children to be very self-assertive. They will let people take advantage of them. They do not have the confidence to express opinions, or act independently without approval. Juliette will shrink from people who are overbearing. The instinct will be to either ignore these people altogether or try to get around them furtively. These delicate youngsters simply do not know how to cope. Juliette needs that confidence to be encouraged and coaxed.

Juliette will not be interested in strenuous physical activity. Maybe water sports or skating might appeal to them. This dreamy child will be more at home with their own imagination than competing for medals or honours. There will not be a great need to be the best, or terribly successful. Music, dance lessons, or art classes could be a good idea for Juliette.

The early teenage years and adolescence can be difficult for these pre-teens. The awakening of the hormones can be powerful, and perhaps, overpowering for Juliette. There can be a major struggle with learning how to identify in a positive and confident way with the opposite sex. Juliette can have feelings of inferiority both on a physical and communicative plane. A real interest in the opposite sex could be a slow process.

As these children get older, they will feel more secure. Juliette will be extremely unselfish and will do things for others with little consideration for self. These children can be successful and do have plenty of potential, but they lack a burning desire to win at any cost. In addition, their natural inclination is to "give." Those who have benefited from this generosity will often return it to Juliette three-fold. That is unless this child takes the attitude that the world owes them a living. Then Juliette is likely to start to keep a secret tally on who owes what. This can make for a rather bitter adult but this is not a common trait. This is just a possibility with this placement.

Many medics have this placement of Mars.

Mars in the Tenth House

Juliette has Mars in the 10th House. These little ones will not need any coaxing. They are born wanting to succeed. And success should come to them easily and from quite a young age. They will know that in order to get to where they want to be, they will have to work hard, and they will do just that. These youngsters set goals early on. They will then push to reach those goals, or even push the boundaries further. This child will always want to get ahead in life. The father figure could be a problem for this child in some way.

Juliette will be more serious than most. Although there will be a strong need to be respected by peers, it is only those people that are considered important that will count. These youngsters will discriminate, and generally, they are not concerned with the opinions of others. Even while young, the eye will be on the future. The stakes of popularity will not matter to this little one. Juliette will want to be recognised as being smart, not cute. These kids can have quite a superior air about them. If this is not recognised and addressed, Juliette can go out into the work force with that same attitude. An attitude of superiority can work against this child. Juliette will need to learn to be more compromising, to accept that no man is an island.

Juliette has a need for appraisal and approval, but to achieve this, Juliette must learn to be more human and less mechanical. Failing this, Juliette should probably look for a career that is basically some type of self-employment. The other avenue is to seek work where there is a great deal of freedom. This position of Mars suggests several kinds of jobs, especially those that require a lot of physical energy or hard work. This would be advantageous in any field requiring independent and original work. Mars here will give Juliette the courage to act quite independently, and to be a self-starter that can make decisions. The ambition that Juliette feels will carry this child far. But they should learn to develop some "people" skills as well. It is then that their choices will be without limit.

Jupiter in Aries

Jupiter is a slower moving planet that stays in the same sign for about a year. Its sign has a direct personal effect only when it is in close aspect to the Ascendant or Midheaven, or forms a strong aspect with one of the personal planets. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, growth, and often, luck.

The house position of Jupiter relates to areas of life in which we will want to grow. It shows the area in which we are likely to think positively and optimistically. In a general sense, things work well for us in the house that Jupiter occupies. The keyword for Jupiter is expansion. That can be physically, mentally, or spiritually. Jupiter's position can relate to the expansion of assets relating to financial freedom, or perhaps, even, weight.

Jupiter is in Aries so Juliette should be enthusiastic, generous, assertive, and highly energetic. These kids will develop and grow through a sheer love of learning and discovery. They will constantly be reaching out for new experiences. Competitive sport will utilise this energy beautifully.

Juliette will have the confidence to allow any talents to shine through. There may need to be a bit of a pointer on learning to accept limitations. These kids can overdo things and set their sights too high. Try not to inhibit this child too much though. To try and stamp out the confidence or energy could have quite an adverse affect. Then Juliette will feel that the energy and optimism is wrong. This natural exuberance is a valuable part of the nature. If this energy is suppressed or dampened down too much, it can emerge later in life as aggression. Juliette will not be able to use the vitality in the way that it should be used. In adulthood, this is a good placement for a successful businessperson. Good decision making comes easily as does a sound sense of responsibility and foresight.

Jupiter in the Eleventh House

11th House: School, friends, acquaintances. Groups. Clubs. Influential peer groups.

Jupiter in the Eleventh House is all about friends. Juliette should have a host of good friends that are fun and also genuine. Having a good time and enjoying the social side of friendship is important, but this child will seem to be able to mix business with pleasure. They will mix in and enjoy every minute of it, but they will also learn every inch of the way.

Later in life, the friends that Juliette makes could be socially prominent people who can be very helpful. A danger with this is that this child might choose only friends that they think could help socially or professionally. This can limit their choices and hamper their true ability to accumulate "real" friends.

Juliette is also likely to gravitate towards friends who will show new aspects of life. People who can show them alternative views, alternative lifestyles and a different sort of thinking. For this reason, friends are often somewhat older and more experienced. Later Juliette is likely to play this same role for younger people. This person will then be willing to share their own experiences to help those coming up through the ranks.

Probably this is an idealist. There will be high hopes and wishes. And, if this little one does work hard and stays optimistic, they can probably achieve a great deal.

As they go through life, personal growth, knowledge and maturity will come through the company these kids keep. They should not try to go it alone. There is powerful intuition, sound judgement, and a winning personality. These people are social and popular. Many politicians have this placement.

Saturn in Aquarius

There are always two sides of Saturn - what is, and what can be. Saturn stays in the same sign for approximately two and a half years, so all of the children born around the same time as Juliette will show the same characteristics. Saturn in the sign is therefore personal only when forming one or more aspect(s) with the personal planets, the Ascendant, or the Midheaven.

Read these aspects thoroughly to be more aware of Saturn and what it has to teach this child.

Saturn is all about progress, but it is the slow and sure progress - nothing happens quickly with this rather severe planet. This is where we learn the art of survival. Saturn makes us stop, look, and listen and not go rushing in. This is where we come up against brick walls, where we have to review the lessons learned and modify the next move. Saturn makes us accept responsibility, accept a challenge, and move forward. Saturn is the reason behind many of our fears, our sense of guilt and our sense of failure, but, again, when we beat these obstacles, we are so much wiser and stronger.

The House in which Saturn falls signifies the areas where life can be tough. Nothing seems to come easily, and yet the prospects are of significance. This is the area where our fears will have to be addressed and where our confidence will need to be lifted. Discipline and patience will be badly needed here in order for us to gain control. It is where we must stop and think, but ultimately we learn from Saturn - he is a great teacher. Saturn is often related to the father figure, or the "authority" figure that influences Juliette. Difficult aspects with Saturn often indicate problems in this area.

Saturn often sounds rather negative which is not accurate. Consider Saturn as a hurdle that is there to be conquered - not as an obstacle to fear.

Juliette has the planet, Saturn, in the innovative sign of Aquarius. Both sign and planet are quite compatible, so there will be strong powers of concentration and a forward thinking approach to life. There could be quite a scientific bent and a real understanding and fascination with the more abstract subjects.

Juliette will be influenced by friends whilst young, but with maturity, it will be politics and society that will be the big influence. These kids will be structured in their thinking and will develop a real need to improve systems to adjust to their own generation rather than accept the old theories that seem to be obsolete. They understand growth and the fact that nothing stays the same.

Juliette will set firm goals with some serious and careful preparation. But, this child can be quite dogmatic. There can be a difficulty accepting the alternatives. The natural trait is to get totally drowned in personal theories and give no credit to anyone else.

There will be plenty of self-discipline and inner strength, not to mention stamina. Tolerance and understanding on a personal and sensitive level must be learned though. Juliette will make friends so easily and earn respect as a natural fundamental. But these friends do find it hard to get too close. Uniqueness can make this little one a social loner if not encouraged early to loosen up and include the friends around them. It can be that the childhood home is unusual, the lifestyle a little different, maybe a place where Juliette has to scramble to be heard. This early environment is crucial to this little one in learning how to express ideas easily and learning to adapt socially in a comfortable and relaxed way.

As a child there will be a good imagination and a sense of humour - try to encourage Juliette to maintain this light part of the nature and not sacrifice all the personal warmth in the name of idealism.

Saturn in the Ninth House

9th House: This House reflects the influence and the encouragement from teachers, like report cards, recognition of ability - or lack of needed encouragement and advice. This House is about the development of self-esteem. It is about seeking and sharing knowledge. It is about developing skills and setting goals. It is about expanding on what today offers and taking it into the future.

Juliette has the planet, Saturn, in the Ninth House. This puts an outlook on life that is cautious and conservative. These kids like the tried and true. They do not like to step out of their comfort zone unarmed. Careful planning will go into any projects or schemes. These kids can feel under pressure to perform so can become too cautious. There is a big fear of failing.

Juliette is likely to have a great deal of respect for the parents putting them up on a high pedestal. It is likely that these parents do set high standards by which this child will feel fully obliged to live by. Basic beliefs and ethics will be learned in the home, and this child will accept these philosophies. In fact, this child can appear to be quite smug and dogmatic with respect to these creeds and principles. Learning to be more tolerant and accepting of alternative views will help round this character off beautifully.

The attitude that Juliette nurtures makes for a careful person who attains success by diligent preparation and hard work. These people will approach every problem in life systematically looking for practical solutions. They are very structured. The one real worry is that being so organised there can be a panic attack when faced with sudden or unexpected emergencies. Juliette can have an approach that is too limited. Any little surprises in life can completely throw this child.

However, to use the flip side of Saturn, this person could very easily become very well informed. Juliette could amass a wide scope and range of philosophies based on that original, orthodox grounding. The ability to mix and match all the options can result in an extremely wise and cultured adult. But, it will take a lot of courage for this child to walk away from the established ideals that was the basis of their upbringing.

Uranus in the Fourth House

4th House: This House is about the early home environment, the 'Mother' influence, and the family. This is the House where traditions are set and preserved. This is where basic development begins and where lifetime habits are formed. This House is all about nurturing.

Juliette has the unpredictable planet Uranus in the 4th House. Often this can suggest that the early environment can be fraught with changes. There could be changes in residence, family patterns - even changes in the family. It could be that Juliette never quite feels settled. Juliette may have been adopted, or simply feel adopted by way of an explanation. One of the parents may be distant, different, or even absent. Juliette could feel a lack of parental love and caring. The child/parent rapport can be quite unusual where role reversal becomes the pattern. But, if there is caring and support within the home environment, even if it is not traditional and conventional, this should not pose a major problem. Juliette will grow up feeling well equipped to handle any changes that life might bring.

At best, this is a sign of a free spirit. But coping with many differences can cause strain from time to time.

Juliette will also want to break away and be free from quite a young age. These children want to make their own decisions and set their own pace. However, this could well be the sort of adult that will not be particularly interested in acquiring too many assets that will bog them down. Juliette could adopt a rather unusual lifestyle and will care little for what other people think. This person does not try to please.

Neptune in the Fifth House

5th House: Creativity, having fun, playing with, and mixing with others - the essential social interaction. This is the house of developing life skills that involve contact with company. This house is about developing the skills to become popular, confident, and socially accepted. This house also relates strongly with children.

Neptune in the Fifth House will be a child with the most expressive imagination. Juliette will not be afraid to turn on a good show and will simply love playing to an audience. The sense of drama is finely tuned and clever. These kids will love to role-play and will want to be the star of the show. And Juliette will play this part so very well. This child will "live" through the imagination and have the ability to bring all these pictures to the surface to share with the world. Juliette should not be shy. A later involvement in the entertainment industry is a strong possibility. Perhaps Juliette will use these great talents to join the acting profession.

Juliette can apply too much fantasy to relationships, and later, love affairs. There is the tendency to see in others what they want to see rather than what is. The innate romantic imagination will try to live out more of a fantasy than a realistic relationship. Juliette is the true romantic, and experiences can be chaotic and confusing. There is the temptation to play the role of the hero and pick up some very troubled people to "take care of". In a strange way, these people often will not allow themselves to be looked after personally. It is quite important that guidance is given in this area. Teach Juliette to accept the love and caring that is offered. Let this child see that being "loved" is as important as giving love.

This great imagination needs to be nurtured and let run. But a little bit of hard logic will also help a great deal, and Juliette must learn to receive as well as give in the emotional department.

Pluto in the Fourth House

4th House: This House is about the early home environment, the "Mother" influence, and the family. This is the House where traditions are set and preserved. This is where basic development begins and where lifetime habits are formed. This House is all about nurturing.

Juliette has the powerful Pluto in the Fourth House. This often points to a child that lives with a degree of tension in the home environment. Perhaps power struggles dominate the family home. There will be a strong and deep-seated attachment to the family and strong connections with the Mother figure for better or for worse. Juliette could be very attached to one parent and too dependent. This is not a great problem in childhood, but it may become one when Juliette gets older, or there could be difficulty getting along with one of the parents. Too much pressure could be applied making this child feel guilty when there really is no need to feel that way. This attitude can stick and Juliette can grow to feel quite useless. Whatever way, these kids can be influenced too much by a parent and will need to be more confident and independent. The worst thing is to smother Juliette, and just as dangerous to the psyche will be to ignore this child.

Throughout life, Juliette will be plagued with strong emotional memories from the past, particularly whenever something stirs a reminder of the earliest childhood. So much seems to happen in this child's early life that it will have a tremendous impact which can be confusing. Free will and freedom of thought will need to be worked on. Watch out also for an explosive temper lurking here too, but this could be due to a whole lot of frustration and confusion.

Planets in Aspect

EXPLANATION OF THE ASPECTS

An explanation of the Aspects: These are very important in any natal chart. It is when 2 or more planets "make connection" with each other. To be of significance, the "orb" or degree of this connection, must be relatively close. All the Aspects are of significance, but some are more powerful than are others. And, of course, they all have different meanings.

All of the aspects that are relevant are automatically listed in order of strength. Obviously, the higher the strength the more relevant and potent the aspect.

Conjunction: A powerful and dynamic aspect. This is when two or more planets are sitting right next to each other and they will either back each other up, or compete against each other. Being in the same sign and same house adds up to a lot of weight.

Trine: A distance of 120-degrees between any planet forms a "Trine". These planets will be in the same Element so they will blend well and flow. The Trine brings comfort, ease, and benefit with little effort.

Sextile: The distance between any planets involved in a "Sextile" is 60 degrees. This aspect brings the opportunity to be productive or creative. But the energy of the Sextile must be used - it will not just "happen" Both planets will fall in either Masculine or Feminine signs, so they are compatible.

Square: There will be a 90-degree separation between any planets involved in a "Square". Here is an indication of obstacles and stress that need to be worked through. The planets "square off" against each other but - these are personal learning curves of life. These are hurdles for us to jump but through them we learn and grow. The lessons from Squares tend to be subjective. These aspects will be in signs of the same quality.

Opposition: As the name suggests, any planets that form an "opposition" will be smack, bang opposite each other at 180-degrees apart. This is where one learns to compromise and give a little. The opposition usually involves other people. These lessons are quite objective. Being in polar opposite signs of the zodiac, these planets mirror each other.

Inconjunct also known as the Quincunx: This is considered a "minor" aspect but is about our personal growth and long-term development in the area of the personality. It shows us our limitations and how we can expand a little. The distance between the two celestial bodies here will be 150 degrees apart. Being relatively minor, the orb used is generally rather tight. This aspect would be almost exact to rate in this interpretation.

Mercury conjunct Mars (Strength: 9.16)

The conjunctions add emphasis to the power, the energy, and the vitality of the planets.

The child with the chatty little planet Mercury in conjunction to the impatient planet Mars will get into a fair few arguments - with everyone. These children have sharp minds. They will think and react quickly and do not care too much about the facts, often jumping to the wrong conclusions. Then this kid will swear that black is white and simply will not back down.

Juliette will be very proud of the strong intellect and will rather like the feeling of being just a bit "superior." These youngsters usually become very skilled in debate, as they get older. The quick responses and the very independent thinking patterns give them a distinctive edge. Juliette may not actually be dogmatic but will work at getting in the final word.

Because Juliette thinks so quickly, there is a tendency to interrupt. A few lessons on letting other people have a say will make life easier for everyone. If this child can stop, look, and listen now and again, the versatile mind can take them far.

Somewhere along the way, these kids do have to learn to state their case with less aggression. They have to learn listen to the tone of their voice. "Hear" what they actually sound like - recognise and accept the signals they can emit. Often even the attitude can cause hostility. One thing Juliette will always be is totally honest although tact can sometimes be missing

Mars opposite Pluto (Strength: 8.10)

The oppositions bring about awareness through compromise. Conflicts from the opposition can involve either internal or external issues.

Juliette has the fiery planet Mars opposing the powerful planet Pluto. These children can struggle in getting along with others because they do tend to have a defiant attitude. They can easily alienate others just by their expression. Even the body language that Juliette expresses will project a powerful image.

These youngsters can also be quite subjective. They can put their friends under pressure, but will not like being put into a tight corner themselves. They will take any slight or criticism very personally. Because of this attitude, they may well rub people in the wrong way. Juliette will be very intense. There will be a relentless determination that can be quite scary. This child will be quite a fighter and sometimes the temper may not always be under control. Juliette will need to use the natural energy in hard work. In this way the destructive side of this aspect will be put to good use.

The relationship with the father is very important, regardless of the sex of this child. If Juliette has a problem in this area, there could be trouble getting along with men in general throughout life. Every man will be seen as a potential threat or competitor.

The adolescent years and the onset of puberty can add another dimension to the need to control, or be controlled. Juliette will experience the hormonal changes in a powerful and dramatic way which could affect the moods to a large degree. This charismatic youngster will be highly sought after, but could misuse the natural ability to attract admirers with little or no effort. Juliette will certainly relate well to the opposite sex but will need to be taught to take responsibility in sexual matters and consider other people as well. The examples that have been set in childhood will influence how Juliette attacks the mating game when that time arrives.

As Juliette grows up, the ambition will show through. Without a few lessons during childhood to be more caring of others, to think outwardly, rather than inwardly, this child can become ruthless. They could accumulate some strong enemies. These kids will often stir up controversy, but with a firm set of principles in place and some sensitivity towards the rest of the world instilled, this should not be a major problem. This aspect is about power being used in a positive way.

Uranus opposite Midheaven (Strength: 7.30)

The oppositions bring about awareness through compromise. Conflict within the opposition can involve either internal or external issues.

Juliette has the planet Uranus in opposition to the Midheaven. This is your original free spirit. This child is a quite unique and genuine individual who will have a dislike of being confined in any way at all. Juliette may not be particularly physical - because that will be seen as restrictive. Juliette will not want to live under strict rules and regulations, having little respect for authority or tradition.

Often the detached and independent nature has been brought about by circumstances. Perhaps the parents are very busy, rather detached, or simply non-conformists too. The household could have an erratic and unpredictable flavour and so Juliette learns quickly how to go it alone emotionally and physically. There could be many changes in the home - maybe a nomadic life-style. This aspect is often indicative of an unusual role model, who does inadvertently influence the child.

The original home life will not be a major source of sentiment as life unfolds. Juliette will be more than willing to take flight and leave the family nest quite early. The aim is to be free. These children will go through life pretty much in their own way and be quite content about that.

Sun conjunct Mercury (Strength: 7.26)

The conjunction adds emphasis to the power, the energy, and the vitality of the planets involved by the close proximity.

Juliette has the Sun in conjunction to the planet, Mercury. This gives a good mind and a little person who will enjoy talking with anyone that has a minute to spare. A good chat means more to this child than anything does. They just love conversations. But Juliette will feel very bad when challenged. These kids want to be right and take it all personally if criticised or proved wrong. They also have great difficulty stopping long enough to listen up. They either want to dominate the conversation, or if this is not possible, the mind will wander off the greener pastures. To a certain extent, this is a hallmark of this aspect. This person can have ears on the side of the head - just for decoration. But if they are made to be aware of this, and corrected, this should not be a major problem. Juliette will actually learn more from reading, watching a video, or a film than sitting through tedious lectures.

Anything new is somehow more interesting than going over old stuff. This very active mind learns quickly and wants to continually be on the move. Any sort of repetition will be boring. Juliette is likely to tune out and lose concentration.

This child will have a great need to express personal opinions and can get rather ratty when others do not take all these fantastic ideas seriously. But Juliette has a very quick and a rather intellectual mind. Any communications will be colourful, enthusiastic, and enlightening. These kids think on their feet and do so exceptionally well. With maturity, they will be highly focused on their own ideas. There is the knowledge that the hard yards have been put in so there is no doubt that these kids know exactly what they are talking about.

Some children with this aspect can be rather creative and clever with their hands. Encourage this area, because this can be so good for Juliette. It helps to develop the patience and tenacity. It also calms the nerves as these kids can be quite highly-strung and can develop some nervous habits in childhood.

Mercury opposite Pluto (Strength: 6.30)

The oppositions bring about awareness through compromise. Conflict within the opposition can involve either internal or external issues.

With the expressive planet Mercury opposing the deep planet Pluto, Juliette is likely to be very frank and very outspoken. In fact, the speech will seem to be quite abrupt and sharp. These kids are usually reserved and idle chit-chat is not an automatic function for them. The mind processes facts in black and white, and the natural expression reflects this. The problem is that even while they are young, the mode of expression seems to bring about conflict. When challenged, Juliette may become quite arrogant, as if credibility is being questioned. These kids take everything so seriously. They are only interested in serious subjects - so a major lesson is for them to learn to be less serious. To be able to admit that they are wrong and it is no big deal. Discourage Juliette from becoming obsessed with just personal ideas, ideals, and theories. Try to train the thinking to broader terms so that accepting and rejecting ideas comes easily with minimum offence. Make even "little things" seem worthwhile. But with all the work and problems in the world, Juliette will be an intense thinker with little acceptance of compromise.

However, this child will certainly go through some very important psychological changes throughout their young lives. They will have difficult patches, but as each "growth" area is reached, it will be taken on board and this little one will settle down until the next spurt. This can be a trying time for all concerned, but the gloomy clouds will abate.

This aspect can show mental tension. This "attitude" thing can cause problems with friends, neighbours, or even family if it is allowed to develop too far. However, unconditional love will help this child through the difficult growing years.

Sun conjunct Mars (Strength: 6.22)

The conjunction adds emphasis to the power, the energy, and the vitality of the planets involved by the close proximity.

Juliette has the Sun in Conjunction to Mars which is a real fiery combination. There will be a very strong will, great physical vitality, but also a bit of a selfish streak, not to mention a real argumentative nature when opposed. This is the sort of kid who will never resist a challenge. They may not start it, but a good argument will get the adrenaline going. The stubborn streak will keep Juliette hanging in there until everyone else has been worn down. These kids will not give up easily and will not be easily convinced that they could be wrong. The Sun is the basic personality - Mars is pure action - so this aspect is all about abundant energy used in a very subjective way. Juliette will certainly have a fair amount of aggression in the basic make-up.

These children will set high standards for themselves and for others, which can be very useful if utilised properly, for example, the ability to do very well in the sports arena. There is a natural competitive streak, with a strong will to win. There is also the willingness to put in all the work that is needed to succeed. These kids have a high energy and a strong commitment. In fact, it is very important that Juliette is encouraged to participate in physical activity early. Perhaps the best results will come from individual sports rather than team efforts because the focus will be on personal results. Juliette will be quite happy training alone if necessary. However, learning to compromise within a team will be a valuable lesson to learn.

This is a powerful aspect and can bring success only if it is channelled in the right direction. Juliette will have plenty of confidence, have good leadership skills, and heaps of enthusiasm. The ego will be huge, the opinions emphatic, the attitude maddening at times. The key to remember is never let this child bottle up this enormous energy. The outbursts will usually be for a reason and the bottom line, more often than not, will be frustration. Good, positive direction will help bring out the good. But expect some violent and shattering moments if this pure energy is not given a good path to follow.

It will help enormously to try and train Juliette to be more patient, consider other people, and to just "button up" at times, but this will need to be set in concrete very early. This implacable nature will be almost impossible to change if left until adolescence.

Sun trine Neptune (Strength: 4.87)

Trines bring ease, harmony, and success, which need little effort. They can help creativity.

Juliette, with the Sun trine Neptune will be imaginative, expressive and highly creative. This little one will also be extremely sensitive. Any subtle atmospheric conditions will be picked up in an instant. This little one will know before you do that something is amiss and will be there as support. This will always be a gentle child who will be reluctant to hurt anything or anyone. Juliette will always identify with the victim or the underdog or anyone who is suffering. This intuitive kid has such a natural empathy and an awareness of pain that they have the instinct to tend those in need.

Juliette could quite likely have clairvoyant powers and experience very vivid dreams. There is the likelihood of the ability to astral travel. An attraction to the mystical or supernatural ideas could well emerge. All the dreamy, fantasy areas will have a strong appeal. However, especially while they are young, this little one may find all of this confusing and scary.

Juliette will find it too easy to slip off into the world of fantasy when the going gets rough. So Juliette must learn to face the truth and see "real life". When Neptune and the Sun connect, there is difficulty accepting the harsher part of life, but with maturity and understanding, all of this evolves as a strong wisdom. It is wise to train Juliette to be more practical, but a bit of a prod may be needed to motivate this. There is a tendency to sit and wallow in the imagination and not be interested in doing anything much at all.

Juliette will feel a great need to see something in the world besides the cold, hard, material facts. Because they are unusually sensitive to anything mystical, they may very well find it. However, others may not understand this child. Juliette will be the sort of kid who will need to develop the ability to communicate clearly and effectively. The natural instinct is for a deep and retiring privacy.

In later years, Juliette could well be found working in the area of reforming the less fortunate out of bad habits or helping people through chronic illnesses or diseases. The deep sensitivity will develop into a positive and helpful tool. Juliette will be well equipped to work in global activities that require a variety of selfless responsibilities.

Moon square Jupiter (Strength: 4.51)

The Squares are quite subjective. Squares bring challenges that must be worked through.

Juliette has the Moon Square Jupiter which is a happy-go-lucky personality. The problem can be that with this aspect, these kids alternate between a flow of frantic energy to lethargy - due to simply running out of steam. This can actually be a difficult aspect. There will be a need for constant effort to gain balance and moderation. Juliette will probably have boundless get-up-and-go at times and just pull everyone into the wake of enthusiasm. But these kids can overdo everything. They can want too much too often. The nature and the needs can actually be seen as enthusiastic and buoyant, or just plain grasping. Juliette may need to learn to accept that there are limits. This nature will simply not know when to stop and wind up exhausted, and quite likely, ill. Juliette will have to learn that there is a finish line and that superman does not actually live at your house.

There will also need to be a few lessons in budgeting. Juliette can become rather extravagant and, on the spur of the moment, buy things which are not even wanted and certainly not needed. There also could need to be some discipline in the area of eating and later, drinking habits. This aspect indicates a tendency to overindulge.

Planning can be a chore too. Ambition can be very low priority because these kids will just want to have fun and may be reluctant to admit this and face the facts. Juliette will get involved totally or simply opt out altogether in anything that is attempted. These kids are impulsive and change their minds easily. Finishing off can be a major problem; so encouraging Juliette from an early age to enjoy finished results is a must. Start by setting small, easily achievable goals, and make a big deal out of succeeding. Kids love to feel they have done a good job.

Juliette will have lots of friends because everyone will enjoy the energy and the sense of fun. This kid has great entertainment value even when totally out of control. However, this exuberance can be wasted unless "staying power" is taught from an early age. Moderation and learning to be satisfied are two essential points that need to be addressed.

Pluto opposite Midheaven (Strength: 4.32)

The oppositions bring about awareness through compromise. Conflict within the opposition can involve either internal or external issues.

Juliette has the planet, Pluto, in opposition to the Midheaven. This aspect will often indicate that the earliest experiences in the home will have an unusually strong effect. Maybe there will be a lot of misunderstandings in the home area, or perhaps Juliette will get caught up in power games. There could be indications of quite harsh treatment. One parent in particular will be very important, and it is essential that that parent's influence be good. If there are bad energies, it will affect this child at a very deep inner level leaving deep scars that may never heal. These poor kids may never be able to dig deep enough to resolve them.

Bad experiences in childhood can bring about compulsive behaviour patterns and bad habits. If these kids are subject to abuse, alcohol, drugs, or whatever, they will become very susceptible to these things. What they pick up from their elders will seriously affect the ability to make judgements on what is good and what is not.

One of the parents may try to control Juliette too much and not encourage personal growth, or perhaps, not make it easy for this child to grow up and move on when the time is right. All of which will certainly retard this child's psychological development.

Good influences from the parent will have a very powerful and positive effect on the child's whole life. It is simply that the bond with the dominant parent is very strong. This can have either a good or a bad long-term effect on the development. Positive parenting is of the essence here.

Mars conjunct Midheaven (Strength: 3.38)

The conjunction adds emphasis to the power, the energy, and the vitality of the planets.

Juliette has the energetic planet Mars Conjunct to the Midheaven. This area of the Chart defines what we want to aim for in life. Mars here adds strength both to the ambition and to how that ambition is reached. Juliette will indeed be ambitious. Determination to achieve will be a fundamental part of the nature. Juliette will be strong willed with an equally steely determination that will not be quelled. In many ways, the attitude can be quite abrasive and dictatorial, but this kid has a powerful focus. The main aim is to be seen and heard - and respected. The nature is fearless, preferring to act out as an individual rather than in a group. For this reason, being different or original appeals to Juliette. Even being awkward gets the sort of attention that these kids prefer. This particular aspect is associated with gaining the approval of peers, or people that matter. Juliette will work very hard to do this.

Mars in the Midheaven suggests that Juliette will put a lot of energy into a career later in life, but Mars is not a diplomatic planet. Juliette could well work very hard only to be knocked back. There can be problems with bosses and accepting the rules and regulations. It can help if Juliette is trained very early on to listen and to compromise. The eye will be set firmly on running the show, and Juliette will be very capable; nevertheless, learning the art of "teamwork" can only help the cause.

This aspect is very common among athletes. However, even in sports of any kind, these kids must learn to accept discipline and the opinions of other people. This is not a bad aspect at all. In fact, it can be very useful, but Mars conjunct the Midheaven can make life difficult. Juliette came into this world with a strong agenda. The aim is high - this kid wants to be a Star in every sense of the word. And the end will always justify the means.

As Juliette matures and adolescence begins to fill the frame, the full use of some sheer sex appeal will emerge as yet another useful tool. These kids soon learn how persuasive these new found powers can be. This gives added strength to the quest to get ahead and will be used to the max.

Mercury trine Neptune (Strength: 3.27)

Trines bring ease, harmony, and success, which need little effort. Can help creativity.

With the expressive little planet Mercury in trine to the nebulous planet Neptune, Juliette will have a rich imagination, and an abundance of creativity. This child will be a practical idealist with an intuitive mind. The eye and the mind will tune into the harsh realities of the world and recognise where improvements can be made. And Juliette is gifted with a sense of reality, so ambitions can be attainable. Juliette will see beauty in the world that other people miss. With encouragement, this child can learn to express this through writing or art.

As they get older, these children may be more interested in making their ideals real, rather than amassing a whole heap of assets. Real application can be too much effort for Juliette, who can appear to be taking the easy way, but a special vision that goes with this aspect is quite beautiful. Juliette will never go into anything with the eyes closed, so choices are simple. Ambition and accolades are not the motivation, but peace or serenity is. Superficial matters will not clutter this person's life. They will always keep their focus on the important issues.

Because the intuition is so highly developed, Juliette will learn to understand what motivates others. These kids are gentle and sensitive, but not especially naive. They would benefit from living by the sea as they will identify with the ocean and its calming effect. The sea, or the ocean, does explain the depth of this child - giving an elusive hint of the deep unknown that is often projected by their personality.

Uranus sextile Ascendant (Strength: 2.44)

Sextiles bring chances and opportunity. Effort is needed to realise the full potential.

Juliette has Uranus sextile the Ascendant, so will be an outspoken and very independent child with strong and unique ideas - and is one who will demand to be listened to. These children do want to be taken seriously, but can easily get into trouble because of the very outspokenness of their nature. This trait often draws a big fat negative from adults. But this child will say it as they see it.

The mind is very active. Juliette will like to learn anything new and will tend to think that if something is new - like an idea, or a thing, or a friend - then it has to be better than anything 'old', or 'established'; but these children will have to learn that progress has a start line somewhere. Juliette will probably always like any new gadget that comes out. Novelty values will always be high on the list of attractions.

These children will like to be around exciting people who offer a challenge in a positive way. A 'best' friend could change frequently, simply to keep the flow of mental stimulation in motion. Later in life, Juliette will be drawn to rather eccentric and offbeat-type people, and will steer clear of conventional straight-laced types. The latter sort of predictable company will bore these types to tears - especially as they grow up. Where no intellectual challenge is offered, there will be absolutely no interest.

Sun opposite Pluto (Strength: 2.32)

The oppositions bring about awareness through compromise. Conflict within the opposition can involve either internal or external issues.

Juliette has the Sun in opposition to the powerful little planet, Pluto. This makes a very potent connection. The strong will and stubbornness can be very difficult to live. Juliette will never be willing to budge an inch. These kids will hold their own beliefs so rigidly and often will just clam up saying nothing. These kids make their presence felt that way. They are so reluctant to express any inner feelings. All efforts put in by anyone else will be ignored - and there will be a flat refusal to give any explanations. In a strange way, there is probably too much self-control here. There is a tendency to evade conflict rather than face it, and in doing so, miss all possibility of accepting any alternative views. Strangely, Juliette can actually feel rejected or not seen as very important - hence, the big drive to prove otherwise. Make sure that this child feels totally accepted for the special little person that they are. If this is a problem, the continual awkwardness will simply be a way of "testing" the family and friends. This is an attitude that will continue throughout life if not checked early enough.

But, these children must learn to relax and not take themselves so seriously. Juliette will have to learn to get along with others because if this does not happen, life will not roll along and unfold as smoothly as it should. These children will need to learn to work with others to bring about changes in their own lives. This is a fundamental part of the basic growth of the personality and the character.

These are not the kind of people who can live with a set pattern all of their lives. Without change, they will begin to feel so restless. They will evoke all sorts of fundamental changes simply out of boredom. Friendships will be broken for seemingly little reason - simply as a way to move on and form new liaisons. These kids can suddenly quit from a group or a club that has been of vital importance, simply to break the habit. This need for constant change is a part of these children and later, as adults. Juliette will need to accept this. Life will be more pleasant if these kids learn to accept other people and allow others into their world. The restlessness need not be a total escape route or an alienating factor.

Mars trine Neptune (Strength: 2.05)

Trines bring ease, harmony, and success, which need little effort. Can help creativity.

Juliette has the energetic planet Mars Trine the dreamy planet Neptune. These children are quite shy and do not have a whole lot of confidence. They are reluctant to commit themselves or even to assert themselves. These kids often feel that they cannot compete, so they give up without even trying.

Juliette is an idealist who will see the world as far nicer than it actually is. There will be a struggle to cope with reality, preferring dreams and fantasies. There will be little ambition, except to try to draw out the creativity. There is bound to be a keen aptitude here, but the courage to expose it could be buried quite deep.

As these youngsters develop, keen sensitivities let them tune into the environment in a very special way. They are able to size up a situation or a person easily. But they will still be a soft touch for any hard-luck story that comes along. People who seem helpless always arouse sympathy in Juliette, but, unfortunately, the efforts put in may not be all that helpful in the long run. It can become a personal mission for Juliette. These helpful souls must make sure what their motives are when they extend their compassionate hand. It can be too easy to accept responsibility for someone else at the expense of facing personal issues. These people can skilfully avoid their own "real" world by honing in entirely on another person's life and experiences.

As a teenager, Juliette could rather resent the hormonal rush and the changes it brings. The emotions can be close to the surface due to a reluctance to adjust. Relating to the opposite sex will be relatively easy, but understanding the feeling that sexuality provokes can be confusing. This charismatic kid will be highly sought after but could be a little slow to truly participate.

The psychic side of this child's nature and the physical side are well blended. They will understand their own feelings and inspirations. Juliette may also develop an interest in artistic dance, or Yoga, or some sort of activity that involves physical expression.

Mercury conjunct Midheaven (Strength: 2.03)

The conjunctions add emphasis to the power, the energy, and the vitality of the planets.

With the expressive planet Mercury in conjunction to the Midheaven, Juliette will have a very sharp mind, which will be used to get ahead. Very early in life these children will learn to look at the world clearly and objectively. The communication skills will be very advanced for their age. Juliette will continually be reaching for new stuff to expand and stimulate the learning process. Juliette will always have an eye firmly on the future so all this diligence has a very real purpose.

The most important task for Juliette to master is to be more disciplined. Try to let Juliette see the pleasure that can be gained from learning a subject thoroughly. A big aim will be to impress other people, so play this little game, and express your admiration when Juliette becomes an expert. Remember, this child is impatient; the grass on the other side of the fence will always look greener, so there will be a need for some guidance to learn to stick to at task. There can be a real danger of spreading the learning too thinly and consequently, missing the point of the exercise.

Juliette can become too academic and glean little understanding of sensitivity. The natural instinct is to rely on logic, which can actually become rather clinical. Try to fit some warm cuddly stuff in here quite early, and give Juliette the opportunity to appreciate and be aware of the intrinsic beauty in the world. It is important that these kids are taught that they must try to "feel" as well as be clever. Develop their emotions along with their intellect.

With this lively mind, Juliette could be a bit of a practical joker. There is a good sense of humour in this little one. But again, there is a need for this child to be aware that fun needs sincerity and relevance to be fully accepted by everyone.

Mars trine Ascendant (Strength: 1.12)

Trines bring ease, harmony, and success, which need little effort. Can help creativity.

Juliette has the energetic planet Mars Trine the Ascendant. This child will be strong willed, confident, independent, and will not really care what people think of them. They have a great need to be themselves. Fortunately, however, they are likely to have enough courage to be independent. Because of their confidence, their opinion of themselves does not depend on what others think. This assurance makes them feel that they can go it alone if they have to, or they can work with others as an independent equal.

But Juliette will like to be "in charge." These youngsters do not like working under anyone else, unless they really respect that person. It is only then that they are willing to take orders from someone else. However, inconsistency easily disillusions this child. Whoever does win this respect should be aware that this little person's standards are very high. If their principles are not met, they will head for the door and not look back. Deception of any sort will be a big turn-off.

Juliette will approach every activity with great enthusiasm and gusto. There will be few grey areas and little will be approached in a half-hearted way. These kids will defend their beliefs and the people in whom they believe in until the very end. Ideals and beliefs are very important to them, and are a large part of the image.

When adolescence steps into the frame, Juliette will relate well to the opposite sex. This will be an exciting time as this teen moves closer to adulthood. There could well be many short-lived romances because Juliette will not settle into a relationship unless it feels right. This is not a casual young person.

Sports will become an important part of life for Juliette. These youngsters will enjoy play more than mundane work any day. Their natural enthusiasm, determination, and energy will bring out the best of their competitive spirit.

DOMINANT PLANET(S)

The prominence of the Planets and the contacts that they make with each other define the strongest Planet(s) in the Natal Chart. Some planets make a lot of "noise" which you will see in the area of the "Aspects" whilst some are just waiting for something to happen. The following are considered the Powerhouse Planets and their meetings and positions add a further dimension to the attitudes and aptitudes of Juliette.

There can be more than one "strongest planet" in which case the person will have a natural ability to dance to many tunes - they will be adaptable and versatile. But if one planet or luminary comes through as the absolute leader, then the person will be very specifically made up of the flavour of that celestial body.

Mars Dominant (Strength: 39.34)

Mars is a feisty little planet that radiates energy, motivation, and action. With a predominant Mars, this child will be totally spontaneous. They will have high aspirations and will put their total being into whatever they want to do. Juliette will have very strong desires and will be fiercely competitive. The nature is very independent. There is the ability to go it alone, to do all the hard work independently, if necessary. These impatient kids cannot be bothered waiting around for someone else to call the shots or to keep up with their pace.

The Mars influence is always reaching for new heights and new experiences. But Juliette can be very hasty and can lack tolerance. This is a highly emotive and passionate planet, but it is not sentimental or sensitive. Mars is called the "red" planet and the Mars influence sees red quite often. Juliette will be explosive and quite rude. These kids do not have the patience to stop and think of a "nice" way of putting what they want to say. Spontaneous combustion springs to mind, but these kids cool down as quickly as they over-heat, and the intention is seldom to offend. These kids will often sound a lot more aggressive than they feel. They just do not think.

Mars also is regarded as a sexual planet. These kids, as they develop, will probably take a strong interest in the opposite sex from rather a young age.

Mercury Dominant (Strength: 36.40)

Mercury, the mythical messenger, predominant in the natal Chart points to communication and the mind. This strong influence makes for a youngster who is articulate, versatile, agile, and energetic. The mind will dart from one subject to the next, but the ability to process and express what has been absorbed should be keen. This busy little planet collects and classifies all the information that filters through the brain and the mind. And it carefully discards what it does not need, or already knows. This is how Juliette will operate on such an intellectual level. This child will just have to be able to express how they feel. Juliette will want you to know, understand, and listen. Sharing all of that knowledge is at least half of the fun of learning.

Mercury also heightens the co-ordination, allowing flexibility both of the mind and the physical body. When the influence of Mercury flows through a Gemini influence, the mental capacity will be very strong. The warm and humorous side of this planet shines through. When this energy comes from a strong Virgo showing, the dexterity will be the ability to use the hands to create. Although the mind is clever and capable, it reflects the cooler side of Mercury - the analytical and the self-critical side.

All of these children will love to learn. They will argue the point, make their thoughts known, and they will be expressive in their writing and oral skills.

Juliette can also suffer from nerves as Mercury rules the nervous system. It is highly likely that this child runs on nervous energy. This Planet also covers the memory and the perception.

Pluto Dominant (Strength: 31.75)

Pluto is a little planet that is all power. It moves through the heavens in its own way and at its own pace, paying little attention to anyone as it tracks its elusive course. But this little planet knows exactly where it is going. Pluto is all about regeneration. Pluto takes old ideas by the scruff of the neck and shakes them violently until they have no further use. It finds a vague beginning for a brand new concept. Pluto rules volcanoes and the Plutonian changes are often of volcanic magnitudes. This is a rather cold planet. It is difficult to define. It is difficult to follow and difficult to penetrate, but underneath this chill is a deep and burning passion. Juliette with a powerful Pluto in the natal chart will be all of these things. These kids will be secretive and often silent. They will be clever. They will work their way through enormous changes in their lives, going through passages of darkness alone and coming out the other end a brand new person. The result can be a total transformation. Only they will truly understand where they have been. And this child will not be particularly interested in explaining anything to anyone. Juliette will be very private, very deep, but totally fascinating.

These kids do seem to have a certain knowledge that they exude but do not express or openly share. Others "feel" the power of this little person. They will be passionate in all that they do and their anger will be, again, volcanic. These kids will not be violent in their daily lives. In fact, they will be slow to anger but their depth of feeling is immeasurable.

Juliette will be strongly motivated, very determined, very stubborn, and probably quite ambitious. It will be a rare occasion that will make this child admit defeat. They will plot their own paths and follow them with sheer determination. Much of the path though life will be very private, but this is the preference of Pluto.

DOMINANT SIGN(S)

The Strongest sign often coincides with that of the Sun in the Natal Chart because Mercury is the Sun's closest companion - they are never far apart. Venus also sticks quite closely to the mighty Sun, and to a lesser degree, Mars never strays too far away. So, one or more of these planets are often in the same sign as the Sun at birth adding further strength.

However, in many cases the "outer" planets can gang up and create a very strong, but quite a different, influence. This area of the Chart will either add more weight to the colour and personality of this Child or it could add a further hue to their approach and intensity.

If there is more that one "strongest sign", which is likely, the person will have various facets to their approach and abilities, and so will scatter their energies somewhat. If there is one singleton sign, which outweighs the rest, Juliette will be more easily recognised by the attributes of the sign involved.

Pisces Dominant (Strength: 304.93)

Pisces, the sign of the Fishes, figures strongly in this chart. There are so many types of fish - goldfish, tropical fish, deep sea fish, fresh-water fish and so on. And the Pisces person has so many facets to their personality that they are often called "dual". Generally, the true Piscean is gentle, peaceful, very sensitive, and truly compassionate. They are quiet and can seem withdrawn. They will often go off by themselves or to their bedrooms just for some peace and quiet. These kids will have a fantastic imagination, and that is where this little soul goes. They will burrow deep into the imagination where everything is beautiful, mystical, and serene. But these kids can also go where there are monsters and where the distortion of evil overwhelms them. So, the imagination is fine, taking time out is healthy, but escapism can be dangerous ground for this child.

Juliette absorbs everything through the senses picking up bad vibes in an instant. These children feel any hostility as soon as they walk into a room - they don't need words. The Pisces person is always very sympathetic and will always listen to any tale of woe. Others will trust this sincerity and caring. Juliette will be very adaptable but will dislike confrontation of any kind. This child will defend any friend who is in trouble but walk away from personal issues of hurt and disappointment. These kids can have a lot of difficulty making a decision. They will be easily distracted. This child will also hate to hurt anyone or say "no", so these kids can be quite easily led. This little child will be very sentimental, so they will count down their birthday each year and will be good at remembering everyone else's special day too.

Pisces is the most psychic sign of the zodiac but these "gifts" can be confusing for the young child. Juliette will doubt the sensitivity and "go bush" rather than discuss what is happening. As they get older, this could well be a valuable tool to use. This little one will also have powerful dreams so will need to be able to talk about the scary ones. Juliette will need the assurance that it was "just a dream".

Virgo Dominant (Strength: 129.23)

Virgo is one of the strongest signs in this Chart, so Juliette will be quite prim and proper in many ways. These children will always strive for perfection in whatever they do. They will go to painstaking lengths to achieve the ultimate, which will seldom reach their expectations anyway. Juliette will not only try to produce a flawless result, but they will need to understand the task in hand too. These children will dissect and analyse every bit of information and persist in their efforts to establish the full picture. Juliette will probably toss a lot of 'whys' into general conversation. This child will not be shy in asking a whole lot of questions and will persist until thoroughly satisfied. They won't be aggressive in their pursuit of answers, but will hang in there until a satisfactory explanation has been found. The nature is tenacious and highly focused.

These children set very high standards for themselves, but also expect the same from others. In fact, their greatest problem is expecting nothing short of perfection. They are self-critical and will be quick to pick holes in personal efforts and the efforts of others. This can be quite hard for the rest of the family to take. Juliette can be too meticulous and too critical, so will need to learn to relax a little. This child will be a worrier, who needs to learn to accept our less-than-perfect world, together with the rest of us less-than-perfect people.

These children are usually fairly quiet. They are serious and love to learn, especially through reading. This sign is usually very good with their hands. They can be very creative and will love to experiment with building toys and the likes. Dad's tools can be a source of fascination, but never be afraid to spend money on materials for creative expression. These children will take great care of their possessions and will also be very sensible in how apparatus is used. You will also find that Juliette will seldom demand anything that is not totally necessary. In fact, you will probably get a long and involved discussion explaining exactly why a particular gadget is needed.

Often these children will be fussy eaters and can become too concerned with their health, diet, and just plain simple hygiene. The sign of Virgo leans heavily towards work, but it also shows a particular interest in health.

Capricorn Dominant (Strength: 88.25)

A strong sign in this Chart for Juliette is Capricorn the Goat. If you look closely at the goat, you will see a wise, but wary, little beast that takes very sure steps. They seem to be quite content in their own company and at home with the elements, no matter how harsh. For their size, they have real tenacity and a quiet strength that marks them as a survivor. The goat will familiarise itself with the territory and in its own way, take ownership of their patch. They are not particularly aggressive, but they will defend their rights in a rather subtle way, biding their time. If they have to, they make a strong point. They will not give up, but the stubbornness will be mixed with subtlety. And this is the Capricorn personality.

Juliette will be ambitious and will study hard. These kids take life and their future very seriously. They can be trusted to use common sense and sound judgement, so they often seem very mature for their age. Fortunately, there is the opposite effect as they get older - Capricorn people hold their years well. Personal standards will be set very high and the sheer dedication applied will often ensure that all these standards are in fact met.

Although self-assured, in many ways, the Capricorn child can be timid and quite afraid of being hurt. They are sensitive but create a protective wall to ward off hostility and bad feelings. Pain and feelings of hurt are often concealed. The Capricorn type is not easily offended because, being so independent, opinions of others do not matter a great deal. But, this child is no fool. A silent pride runs very deep. This child will not forgive or forget.

Juliette will look for recognition for successes, as these kids do like to be noticed. They like their share of the limelight without having to fight for it. They want to be seen for their brilliance, not for foolishness. Many good actors have a strong Capricorn influence and so do many comedians. There is often a very dry, subtle and clever sense of humour that belies the serious exterior of this character. These people can laugh at themselves but they will not like to be made to look small or stupid.

DOMINANT HOUSE(S)

The Houses in the Natal Chart are very significant because they indicate the areas where we have been born lucky or where we have serious work to do. The Houses define the areas in life where we expend our energies, where we find recurring issues with which we have to deal.

The basic Natal Chart is simply the blueprint of the Heavens at the exact time of our birth. But in reading a child's chart, there is a different emphasis. Obviously a child "reflects" its everyday environment during the formative years and this Natal chart for Juliette acknowledges these reflections. In the case of a child, many of the attitudes and habits are reflections of the up bringing and environmental influences. Often work needs to be done to reach out for the opposite House to achieve a fuller picture.

It is very important to apply these interpretations with the dominant sign and the planets involved. Together, they make much more sense and will be more easily recognised.

The report gives a "one-liner" explanation for each relevant House throughout the basic Chart, which relates to children.

Tenth House Dominant (Strength: 249.26)

Juliette has a lot of weight in the 10th House, which traditionally points to career, status, and reputation. The 10th House for the child is about peer groups, parents, teachers - the 'in crowd'.

Juliette will have a strong set of objectives. This little one will set firm goals and will be quite selective with whom they mix. These children have such a strong sense of purpose that they will not take anyone seriously who does not have a sincere agenda.

Juliette will have a natural respect for authority. Because the paternal figure is often indicated through this House, it is likely that the 'authoritative person' plays a major role in this child's life. Sometimes though, that 'figure' can apply quite a bit of pressure.

Often with activity in the 10th House there can be quite a lonely or hard childhood, especially if there are oppositions, (aspects - please check), that come from the 4th House. There will be a strong need for personal security. This is probably why these children figure out when young that the hard yards are needed to get results. Besides, they also figure that independence and knowledge is power, and that will be a key to the aspirations of this child. Juliette will ultimately want a bit of power. That simply means being completely in charge of personal issues in life and their ultimate destiny. There can be a real need to 'prove'.

This little one does have to reach out to the opposite House, the 4th House and let their emotions flow, not feel afraid to show how they feel, not be quite so 'grown up' all the time. They will be as vulnerable as anyone else will, and they have to accept that we all hurt at times - and that's OK. We all have to cope with 'less than perfect'. That is quite normal. At some stage in their life, this child may have to put in some work coming to grips with a part of the childhood that they did not understand or quite accept.

But a powerful tenth House does suggest ultimate success or recognition eventually. This might be localised, rather than making world headlines, but this little character does have a solid destiny.

Fourth House Dominant (Strength: 129.23)

4th House: The early home environment. The Mother influence. Early development.

Juliette has a very strong 4th House influence. The 4th House is the early environment and the teachings within the home. It pertains quite strongly to the maternal influence. The 4th House is also indicative of new beginnings. Juliette will be strongly attached to the Mother figure, who will have a powerful influence in the way this child thinks and behaves, providing the yardstick that this child will use to run its own life later. A few psychological tensions can be present. There is a real need for emotional security even within a relatively secure family atmosphere. These kids will tend to suffer quite badly from low self-esteem and will seem to be a lot more emotional than the rest of the family. It is likely that this child will burst into tears very easily and will be rather clingy and moody. But, they will make their feelings felt by throwing a sulk, or by storming off, rather than by throwing a tantrum. Consequently, they often do not clear the air. They will let their hurts linger for far too long because they will never forget.

Generally, these kids will probably have a very good memory, which they can put to good use throughout life. Everything about the childhood will be carefully preserved and committed to this vast memory bank. These kids, more than any others, will have a deep and lasting attachment to their childhood and all the memories that go with it.

The 4th House is at the base or the foundation of the Chart so it is a powerful point in any chart. This little one will need to reach out to the opposite House, the 10th House to look beyond the home, in order to reach out beyond the parental influences. The 4th house dominant child can use what they have learned to become who they want to be in their own right. They need to learn to look outwardly and reach for the stars, rather than cling to the past forever.

Eleventh House Dominant (Strength: 86.81)

11th House: School, friends, acquaintances. Groups. Clubs. Influential peer groups. Hopes. Inspirations.

This child has a lot of Planets in the 11th House. The 11th House is about the kids at school, and groups, such as play groups, girl guides, boy scouts, sporting clubs - or maybe, dance classes. In general, it is about collective groups.

Juliette will have a lot of friends from all walks of life. This child will thoroughly enjoy being a part of a group where they can share some of their many interests. Juliette will enjoy being a part of organised activity. However, interests will not stand still because from an early age this is all part of the development. These children are likely to be full of enthusiasm for one interest, and then bounce off in a totally different direction, leaving their previous passion behind them. But they will have learned a lot and met a whole bunch of new people. Friends will be important to these children. But as they grow up and head into those adolescent years, they are likely to gravitate toward all "types" of people and get involved with some real "oddballs". Juliette may well be attracted to the fringe-element type crowd. A part of this child with a heavy 11th house likes to be different. They like to buck the system. They like to challenge the establishment. They like to rebel.

But this child is people-orientated and will want to "speculate to accumulate" in the area of experiences. Often being part of a group is more important than forming real close relationships. This is quite an intellectual House. Exciting and stimulating subjects is the buzz that these kids crave. In reality, the "excitement" of being part of a group "thrills" as much as the topic in hand.

In many ways, this child does have to lean towards the opposite house, the 5th House. Try to get to know the people with whom they are involved. It would be good for Juliette to form closer personal relationships, rather than just pay "membership fees" to be part of the crowd. It will help to make sure that the activities that Juliette wants to participate in are of real interest. Or are they just another "joy-ride"? The danger with the emphasis on the 11th House is that Juliette can spread the social bit too thinly and realise little of substance in anything.

Balance of Elements and Modalities

DOMINANT ELEMENT(S)

The four elements figure strongly in the definition and interpretation of the signs. The dominant element(s) can help to identify the personality type quite successfully. In many cases, there will be a combination of more than one, which indicates more flexibility.

It can be quite easy to spot the "fiery" personality, the "down to earth" type, the "head in the clouds" Air person, or the weepy and emotional water character.

Abundant Water

The water signs are Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. Water indicates sensitivity, compassion, and imagination. These kids can be very deep and private. They can seem to be quite shy. A dominant moon, Neptune, or Pluto can add to the abundance of water characteristics in this chart.

These children are the most sensitive and emotional of all. They often feel not only their own emotions but also those of the people around them. When a water person meets someone for the first time, they can often size up the depths very quickly and accurately through sheer intuition. It is very important that the parents handle this ability carefully. They will need to be wary about who these children associate with. These kids can pick up negative and bad vibes as easily as they can pick up good vibes. And when they do hone into negative vibrations, they will take the whole lot on board themselves. "Other peoples problems" will become part of this sensitive child. For this same reason, it is not necessary to reprimand water children harshly. They get the picture with very few words and will "feel" the rest. In fact, it is less important to reprimand water children when they have done wrong than it is to reassure them afterward. It is vital that a water child has a secure childhood. The emotional impressions from childhood do not fade. There can be a danger that these kids can head for escapism too readily, to get away from the "nasties" that they do not want to face. They do not enjoy confrontation and will choose to retreat. Emotions may dominate this child's thinking so much that it is hard to reason with them.

If water children are brought up to feel secure within, they can be quite strong. Their sensitivity allows them to understand and give generously to those in need. With such a powerful imagination, they can be extremely artistic or creative. The sense of vision can be a powerful asset.

Lack of Fire

When an element is "lacking", it can indicate a need to encourage the essentials of this "lack", to help round the character off a little. This often happens over time anyway, quite naturally. But watch Juliette and you will see if any building needs to be done.

But rather than see this as a "weakness", it is preferable to accept that one or more of the other elements comes through more strongly. The apparent "lack" can also be compensated within the chart anyway. It only needs one powerful aspect to add some weight.

The Fire signs are Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius.

When the Fire element is lacking, it may benefit this child to become more active and more urgent. They may lack the passion and spark that the fire signs give. This does not mean that Juliette will not enjoy life, but merely that there is a reluctance to burst into action. Pleasure, thrills, and glory will be slow coming their way because these kids cannot be bothered to make it happen. The sense of adventure is apt to be more subtle and sensitive, without the dramatics, daring and spontaneity. The lack of competitiveness will hold this child back though.

Although this does not guarantee an introvert, this child is not likely to be an extrovert. Juliette may like to stand back and let the other person make the first move. Maybe this child does underestimate abilities and self worth. But, Juliette may just like to test the water before jumping in.

By underestimating their abilities, these kids are apt to often end up assisting others whose talents are less than their own. Juliette can be easily overpowered. Actually, these kids do not like being in the spotlight.

In some cases, a child lacking fire in the chart may try to force many of the more aggressive fire sign traits in order to compensate for the actual lack of these traits. Characteristic of this would be a person who excels at a sport (perhaps) finding the ability to win through extreme hard work and dogged perseverance. The fire, in this case, is lacking but the "burning" comes from within.

Lack of Air

The Air signs are Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius.

With the Air element lacking in this chart for Juliette, it can mean an inability to think clearly or reasonably. There can be a real difficulty accepting the challenge of alternative views. This child can seem to be a bit of a void in some strange way. It is not that these kids are not intelligent, but just that they do not seem to place a lot of value on ideas and education for education's sake. Often, a shortage of Air signifies an inability to communicate effectively or clearly. Juliette may work hard at being somewhat enigmatic and obscure. Sometimes there is self-consciousness. These kids may over-compensate by working hard to improve the personality because they realise that they have a problem in relating well. It may be hard for Juliette to stand back and clearly view an issue in an objective manner - so there can be a tendency to have some trouble in the task of planning.

These people must make a special effort to communicate clearly and plan very carefully. Otherwise, any advancement will come only through costly trial and error.

DOMINANT MODES or QUALITIES

The "Modes" or the "Qualities" often indicate how we initiate our actions. The Cardinal types are firm, confident, and are better starters than they are finishers. The Fixed types are quite reluctant to step outside of the comfort zone. They prefer to stay with the tried and true. The Mutable people are flexible and adaptable but they can be flimsy.

But, again, in many cases there is a combination of more than one mode.

Abundant Cardinal

The Cardinal signs are the first sign of each of the four segments - Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. These signs are rather assertive, and like to take the initiative.

These are the self-starters - the self-imposed leaders. For this reason, it is sometimes difficult for cardinal-sign people to co-operate and compromise easily. Libra is a bit of an exception being so "agreeable" in many aspects of life, and being so willing to please. But the strong Libran will often take the initiative in starting a friendship. It is in this area that these particular (Libran) people will take the initiative. Unfortunately, the Cardinal signs may not finish what they have started.

Juliette will enjoy the role of the leader, but may not take it very well if forced to take a secondary role. If these kids are not calling the shots, they may well lose interest altogether. It can be easier for them to avoid group activities rather than take the more submissive role of watching someone else run the show.

In a difficult situation, Juliette will usually prefer a direct approach charging right into the situation to resolve it as quickly as possible. Ideas may be good because there will be a natural aptitude at solving problems, but a major problem is lack of persistence. These kids get discouraged easily and need a great deal of support to help them stay with a project. Juliette will work well if taught to set goals and then be given heaps of praise when achievement has been recognised.

Juliette will thrive on constant activity with efforts directed at the here and now. The ambition will be strong and the instincts reactionary. Positively expressed, the Cardinal signs produce constructive initiative, but this imbalance can easily produce a lot of wasted energy that gains little.

Lack of Fixed

The Fixed modes are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.

Because this chart is void or nearly void of fixed signs, Juliette could be better at starting things than finishing them. Either these kids become bored with something soon after beginning it, or they take on so much that they do not have the energy or focus to accomplish anything. This can cause lots of difficulty in various aspects of life, such as frequently changing interests, friends, hobbies, and even personal beliefs on many of life's weightier issues. Children with a lack of the fixed quality should be encouraged to persist and to realise their own inner strength. They need to be taught to hang on and not give up. Praise for completion of even the tiniest project will help to instil a sense of success.

FINALE

As adults, we look back on our youth and say, "if only I knew then what I know now". How many of us also, as we get older, "discover" a talent that has never been recognised and say "if only". If this Chart report simply indicates a talent that can be nurtured early in life, as opposed to laying dormant for too long a time, or forever, then the author's objective has been reached.
