Your ascendant at the time of birth was Cancer. The ascendant governs the most visible
aspects of our personality�the image we have of ourselves and the way we present it to
others. It applies particularly to the impressions we create.

Typical Traits of Cancer in the ascendant�intuitive, tenacious, protective,
sympathetic, shrewd. Needs to use acute sensitivity in a nurturing rather than defensive
way. Supportive when helping others but may be reluctant to unburden your own
emotions.
Dangers: excessive irascibility and moodiness. Your Capricorn descendant provides
the strength to contain wildly fluctuating feelings.

Your mid-heaven was Aries. The mid-heaven represents our sense of self as we would
want to impress it on the outside world. It shows the qualities we admire and strive to
develop as we mature, the direction we need to take, our need for status, recognition and
achievement, our ideal career or vocation.

Typical Traits of an Aries mid-heaven�Looks to take initiative, adopting own
methods to achieve aims. Likes to be seen as optimistic and confident, leading from the
front.
Dangers: Can come across as arrogant, impulsive and over-hasty.

Your descendent was Capricorn. This represents the self in relation to others. It shows
what we seek � consciously or otherwise � from relationships and determines which side
of our personality will be brought out through them. It also governs how we react to
relationships and the environment in which they take place.

Typical Traits...resourceful, cautious, disciplined, cool, reserved. Needs to feel
self-sufficient and in control. Has tremendous ability to withstand hardship in pursuit of
ambition, but can become trapped by conformity.
Dangers: Selfish, calculating and unfeeling

Your imum coeli was Libra. This signifies the exact opposite of your mid-heaven. Our
innermost, least consciously recognized sense of self, and where we are coming from. In
adults, it often points to past influences such as home family background, defining our
sense of �belonging� and deepest motivations. This indicates... cultivates charm,
diplomacy and fortunate contacts in pursuit of aims. Indecision often masks the need to
gain cooperation of others, especially those offering professional advancement. Your
family background may provide the equilibrium on which your own individuality can
flower.

Description of the Planets:

The Sun - representing the ego. Yourself as well as your male side. The males in your
life. Your father, brothers, boyfriends, etc. It can also represent these things based on
where it is today. These are known as transits to your natal planets.

The Moon - represents your emotions, your feminine side and the women in your life.

Mercury - the planet of communication. Also this planet has a lot to do with how well
electronic devices work.

Venus - not only love, but any relationship, including friends and family.

Mars - Is not war or conflict, but energy. All types of physical energy. whether or  not it is
conflict depends on how you physically and spiritually exert this energy.

Jupiter - the planet of luck and expansion. usually the determiner when it comes to
success, both financially and spiritually.

Saturn - The lessons learned in life. Usually this is the planet that will determine the
personal conflicts you will face and how you will overcome them.

Uranus - This lovely little planet is the one that throws you all those unexpected little
curves. It is the planet of confusion. This again is not always bad. But if anything is the
"expect the unexpected" planet.

Pluto - the planet of death and rebirth. Again this is also physical and spiritual. This
planet represents the things we must let go in order to allow for the new to replace it.

These planets are not only in your birth chart but they are in your "progressed chart" and
in another chart specific to every day of every year. The planets transit our personal
charts and effect everything we do and experience each day. The faster planets - Sun,
Moon, Mercury, Mars and Venus, change every 4 hours to 2 days (very rough estimate)
and the slower planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto can effect our lives for up to
seven years, depending on whether or not they are in forward motion or in something
called retrograde. Usually retrograde planets make us learn a lesson over and over again
until we get it right.
