   The Sun in Aries represents new beginnings. The native is full of enthusiasm
and creative energy and is ready to apply this energy to initiate new
enterprises. Never intimidated by failure, the native is always ready to overcome
obstacles and seek new challenges. These people have a strong desire to lead the way
for others, finish first and prove themselves more through actions and deeds than
through words. As a rule, they may "get their feet wet" in many different things
without realizing the commitment or giving the complete attention necessary
to succeed.
   As a Taurean, there is a definite need for security. This desire extends
to all aspects of one's life, particularly relationships. Like others born
with the Sun in Taurus, this person enjoys the good things in life and will
work hard to obtain those material goods which bring both comfort and pleasure.
Natives are extremely loyal to both friends and loved ones, sometimes loyal
to the point of being jealous of others affections as well as belongings.
Thus, one must try to realize what is most important in human relationships is
respect and true understanding rather than blind devotion and possessiveness.
   The Gemini character is marked by mental agility and activity. The native
likes to think and act quickly and decisively. Thirst for knowledge is as
great as the eagerness to study and learn new things. As a rule, the Geminian
has a definite need for intellectual security in all relationships. These
people tend to be their own persons, doing things their own way. As such,
they are nonconformists, and tend to fight tradition and the status quo.
The Geminian will not hesitate to question things that are "written in stone",
believing in them only after careful and diligent examination.
   As a Cancer, the native greatly desires security, especially domestic tranquility.
They are most happy at home, among beloved family members and will strive
hard to secure those things which bring peace and contentment to family. Frequently,
this domestic joy will be extended to work and encompass friends.
The Cancer character is marked by being very protective of both one's self
and loved ones. As a rule they are generally introverted among acquaintances but
are open and fiercely loyal to close friends and family members. There is a
tendency to shy away from crowded places and seek shelter in lonely places.
   The Sun in Leo marks one who has a strong will and great ambition. These
people usually enjoy being the center of attention and desire others to think
well of them. Their creative accomplishments generally put them in the spotlight,
usually outshining coworkers who may become jealous of their proud attitude.
Like other Leonians, they are more concerned with the "big picture" than
with the numerous small details in life. As such, they tend to enjoy being
in authority and using whatever means are available to achieve their desires.
Tact should be developed when dealing with those the Leonian finds "inferior".
   The native is a very methodical and practical person, who pays meticulous
attention to every detail in life. Like other Virgoans, when natives do a
job they do it very well and take great pride in their accomplishments, doing
their utmost to rely on themselves before seeking help from others.
"Perfection" is important to the Virgoan, thus, natives are very cautious
in entering any type of relationship. They may very well search long and hard
for a mate (business or romantic) who satisfies their discriminating tastes.
After finding this mate, the Virgoan may go overboard with affections.
   As a Libran, natives have a strong sense of justice and fair play. Their
view of life is most definitely egalitarian, with a great desire to undertake
new endeavors, usually seeking the cooperation of others on an equal basis.
They exemplify the "team player" but may naively expect too much of others.
Like others born with the Sun in Libra, natives show great sensitivity
to matters concerning other people and great interest in society as a whole.
Frequently, Librans will for work for others without thinking of themselves,
though they must guard himself against being used by others.
   As a Scorpion, natives character is marked by intense emotion and
desire. To others, their willfulness and strength may be interpreted as a sign
of stubbornness, but it is really a manifestation of a great desire to do
everything perfectly, sometimes overworking themselves to get the job done.
Typically, they engage in intense romantic relationships and always
appear strong and compassionate to those who look to them for support and
strength. This may occasionally mask their own insecurities and prevent
them from seeking help from others, making them introverted.
   The Sun in Sagittarius indicates one who is naturally friendly, outgoing,
and energetic. As a rule, this person cherishes freedom and personal liberty
and has a great love for travel and exploring new vistas of opportunity. Many
times the person will not hesitate to recruit others to a cause. Like
other Archers, this person is apt to be idealistic and usually has a
great deal of interest in matters of spirit, ethics, and society as a whole.
There is a great deal of love for all types of people and all forms of life.
Enthusiasm for life and people makes it hard for the native to "put down roots".
   As a Capricornian, the natives character is marked by being practical and self
reliant. Patience and persistence, especially in achieving success through
constant hard work are the person's trademarks, as well as having faith in
one's self and ability to handle all the difficulties of life.
Although natives are warm and friendly to close friends, they are
somewhat aloof and closed to strangers. Being somewhat self-centered, natives
are eager, though, to sacrifice for others and receive sympathy and appreciation
from those they respect or those in authority.
   Brotherhood and love of freedom mark the character of an Aquarian. They
make friends easily and are concerned with every aspect relating to the human
condition. For the Aquarian, honesty and sincerity reign over the
accepted conventions, and thus they may sometimes upset the status quo.
Outwardly, the Aquarian may appear calm, but, in reality, they are usually
anxious and apprehensive since they take work and friendships so seriously.
Natives should realize that to improve their character they must understand
limitations and apply them in the most effective manner possible.
   As a Piscean, the native is extremely sensitive to the thoughts and feelings
of others. Lack of strong willpower is made up by their sympathy for those
they come in contact with, especially the poor, weak, or downcast. Generosity
is occasionally bountiful, but usually to those who are "worthy" of natives.
As a rule, the Piscean is good-natured and benevolent but is frequently shy
and reserved around others. "Moderation" is a keyword for the Piscean as the
duality of this sign keeps them on an even keel, content in the background,
frequently keeping them from speaking up and taking a stand on an issue.
   With the Moon in Aries, the natives immediate response to life's situations
is noted by quickness and decisiveness. Frequently, they may "look before
leaping" and react to others without contemplating the consequences of what
they say or do means to those around them.
Natives tend to insist on getting their way and occasionally force
their will upon others. As a rule, they appreciate the advice of friends and
often clearly see the point others are making, but in the end will do things
their own way, not allowing "interference" from others.
   Natives respond to people and events around them in a stoical manner.
As a rule, they are not given to frequent emotional outbursts or "flare-ups" but
rather approach things with a calm, quiet and steady disposition. Sometimes
though, natives stoicism may be misinterpreted as a lack of caring.
The Moon in Taurus indicates an unwillingness to embark on ventures alone;
natives require the stimulation of others to get moving.
Once they do, though, the plodding and steadfastness of their disposition
is readily apparent.
   With Moon in Gemini, the emotional response of natives to life is like a
pendulum shifting and swinging constantly. They respond to every change
in the emotional environment, but more often than not fail to commit themselves
to any one thing in particular. As a rule, they are restless and are given
more to thinking up practical solutions to problems
than to weighty, abstract discussions. Thus, natives are readily
able to tackle problems and move quickly to other events waiting
them. As such, they may frequently be called on by others to bail them out.
   With the Moon in Cancer, natives display an intense sensitivity to the
emotions, feelings, and actions of other people. This may cause them to be
both introspective and introverted and they may frequently experience pain
from the actions of others when none was actually intended.
Also, emotional health is directly related to domestic security;
thus, they will display much effort to bring peace to disorganized homes
and marriages. Natives must guard against becoming the "floormat" upon
which friends and relatives lay all their problems and expect them to solve.
   The Moon in Leo marks one with a proud disposition. This person has a
strong desire to be the center of attention and will frequently engage in acts
of showmanship to capture it, even forsaking danger to stay in the "spotlight".
The native is always fond of pleasing others.
Usually, this person has a keen interest in self-improvement as well
as improving the lot of friends and society as a whole. One may thus engage
in work and activities which beautify both the personal as well as the
world at large.
   Natives tend to respond to people and events around them in a shy,
reserved manner. Generally, they like to "hide behind the scenes" when
doing work, preferring to stay incognito, managing every detail and making
sure all aspects of a project or relationship are "perfect". Like others with
the Moon in Virgo, these natives pay close attention to detail, both in other
people's thoughts and actions. Their response to others is frequently ruled by
the appearance of health and neatness they see in others, which natives
value in themselves, sometimes to the extreme.
   With the Moon in Libra, natives are extremely sensitive to the thoughts
and feelings that others have for them. As such, they have a great need for
harmony in all relationships, especially close ones, since they seemingly
affect emotional health. Generally, natives are not given
to spontaneous actions, but believe rather that some measure
of protocol and convention must be observed. This tends to make them
well mannered and gracious to all people they come in contact with,
however, some may consider their seriousness "prudish".
   With the Moon in Scorpio, natives respond to people and events around
them rather emotionally, usually revealing to all their willful, and sometimes
blind, ambition. This emotional disposition, though, belies natives
tendency to keep very personal matters bottled up inside.
As a rule, stubbornness, persistence, and possessiveness mark their
relations with friends, career, and belongings. If applied right, no
sacrifice seems too great to achieve personal and emotional desires, but
more often than not, the sacrifice will seem too great to make.
   The emotional nature of one born with the Moon in Sagittarius is noted for
its high-mindedness and idealism. As such, the native can easily be attracted
to lofty goals. This includes attachments of a religious or philosophical
nature, occasionally going as far as attachments to fanatics or cults.
Conversely, the native's usually optimistic and friendly nature helps
attract others through its natural persuasiveness. Once beliefs are set,
the native's talent for eliciting people's aid to causes becomes readily apparent.
The native must be judicious in selecting the proper "cause" to support.
   With the Moon in Capricorn, natives tend to be reserved and remote when
dealing with other people and events. "Cautious" is a keyword to describe
their disposition. As a rule, they take circumstances in life very seriously,
having a predilection for ambition and a drive to succeed so as to
mask inner doubts and worries.
Usually, natives shun identifying emotionally with spiritual values, but
take a keen interest in prescribing to the responsibilities and conventions
of the material world.
   "Freedom" is a keyword to describe natives' disposition, freedom in what
they both do and say. These persons never hesitate to say what they think,
particularly if it's something which they feel strongly about. They frequently
cast tact and conventionality to the wind when making an important point.
Like others with the Moon in Aquarius, natives are naturally friendly and
open to their fellow man. Love of liberty makes them sympathetic to others,
particularly since natives hope to release them from the strictures of
ordinary life which they see society placing on all people.
   With the Moon in Pisces, natives like to stay in the background, away
from the spotlight. They tend to react to others in a shy, reserved manner.
There is a great deal of sensitivity in their nature, and they are gracious to
both friends and strangers to avoid giving any unintended slight.
Their impressionability may make them feel vulnerable to
others at times, and they may shy away from relationships for fear of getting
hurt. If applied correctly, however, this impressionability can intensify the
creative abilities of natives.
   With Mercury in Aries, natives have a highly active mind and do not
hesitate to voice many original ideas. When speaking, they tend to be very
animated; energetic hand gestures and facial expressions are not uncommon,
and they may frequently "go off" on a topic with little background knowledge.
As a rule, natives are impatient with people or things which take a long
time to decide upon something. But the impulsiveness of their thought process
makes it difficult for them sometimes to carry out all ideas completely.
They are good at starting things without waiting for the end.
   Mercury in Taurus denotes those who take their time in forming opinions and
making up their mind. Once they get an idea, though, it is firmly
rooted in their mind and it is difficult for them to be dissuaded from carrying
out plans. Generally, natives are concerned primarily
with matters of a practical nature and will devote
great amounts of time and concentration to them. They are more
interested with everyday concerns of a practical, beneficial nature than
conceptual theories, religions or philosophies.
   With Mercury in the sign of its ruler, Gemini, natives have a very logical
mind and sound reasoning. They tend towards shades of brilliance, and have a
desire to see why things in the world operate as they do, without emotions
or personal bias interfering.
Usually, these people are extremely curious about all the things around them,
and frequently try to concentrate on several ideas at the same time. Whatever
their interests are, these people approach everything in a logical, concise
manner. Natives have difficulty in opening up to friends.
   Mercury in Cancer denotes a remarkable ability to remember the events and
ideas which impinge upon the native. Absorbing information without great mental
effort is easy and this person is greatly influenced by the thoughts of others,
making it hard sometimes to form a opinion unique to one's self.
Frequently, the native can gauge the mental state of others and is very
sympathetic to their problems and troubles. There is a great deal of concern
and thinking about family life and those who are close to the native, leading
to deep thought which may make the native appear to be 'spacey'.
   With Mercury in Leo, natives display a great ability to focus their
concentration and articulate thoughts. These people display a
dramatic flair when speaking and they like to command the attention of all
around them, occasionally being loud or verbose.
As a rule, natives' dynamic intellect makes them a good salesman, and
they enjoy proving their point and selling their ideas to others, though they
sometimes get carried away and drive the point into the ground. Usually,
natives show a great deal of self-confidence when it comes to tackling problems.
   With Mercury in its ruling sign, Virgo, natives display a tendency to
study everything which they encounter in great detail. They may very well think
something "to death" in attempting to understand all the intricacies and aspects
involved, sometimes "missing the boat" when a decision has to be made.
These people's desire for exactness and minute investigation is of practical
importance since they usually want to utilize their intellectual abilities for financial
success. Thus, they may refine and revise a project or idea until it is, in
their mind, "perfected".
   With Mercury in Libra, natives communicate easily with others since their
interest in others thoughts and feelings is great. Honesty and frankness
are very important to these people as a way of dealing fairly and equitably
with friends and associates.
As a rule, natives tend to look at all aspects of a problem before
making a decision. Thus, they may vacillate between options and be paralyzed
to act. With practice, however, natives' decisions are wise and
productive, serving them well in their endeavors.
   With Mercury in Scorpio, persons are marked with a perceptive mind and
mental clarity. Usually, they are resourceful and persistent in digging up facts
and "getting to the bottom of things" regardless of the implications involved.
They may thus be unwelcome around secretive friends or business colleagues.
For the most part, natives don't "beat around the bush" but say
exactly what they feel, succinctly and intelligibly. They may not talk a great
deal around others, but when they do it's almost always for a good purpose
and usually to the point.
   With Mercury in Sagittarius, natives tend to focus their mental energy
on emotions and attitudes rather than facts. They have a great desire to
understand the motivations and actions of friends as well as all society
and should learn when it's better to "butt out" of other people's business.
Generally, natives are big-minded and strive for intellectual greatness
and status. This may lead them, though, into conformity with society as a
whole, and their ideas, though popular with all around them, may not be
entirely original or valid.
   Born with Mercury in Capricorn, natives are endowed with a mind concerned
chiefly with practical matters. Their mental ability is marked by shrewdness
and orderliness as a means of succeeding on a more material level.
Thus, the ability to concentrate long and hard may bring them success.
In general, natives show patience when thinking about tough problems and
put forth the endurance and determination necessary to solve them.
There is a tendency, however, to carry this practical thinking too
far and neglect the feelings and emotions of friends and lovers.
   With Mercury in Aquarius, natives' minds are clear and free to receive all
external stimuli. They usually see all things in an objective
and unbiased manner, and are able to accept things that many others
would consider avant-garde, unconventional, or nonconformist.
Additionally, truthfulness is first and foremost to these people and their
vision and broad-mindedness attracts many friends to work with
them. Natives tend to be too truthful, sometimes, just for the sake of
honesty, and may cause unintended harm to others.
   Born with Mercury in Pisces, natives have a very imaginative mind which
is impressionable to the thoughts and actions of others. Thus, they may
suffer emotionally from any intended or unintended slights from people and
need to learn that peoples' words shouldn't be taken at face value.
There is a danger that natives may "follow the crowd" in the way they speak
and act, wearing the latest fashions, for instance, to fit "in". They must not
be afraid to make up their own mind! In general, though, their sensitive thoughts
and actions make them welcome among friends and family.
   Venus in Aries denotes those who are passionate in love and romance; though
natives demand a great deal of personal attention. Their ardor and enthusiasm
for affections, while strong, may tend to be self-centered much of the
time, being interested in people who can make them feel good.
These people are naturally outgoing and seek the companionship of others before
looking within themselves for love. This may thus make them competitive for
other's affections and restless and changeable when they feel unfulfilled. These
people may take a long time before settling down with the right person.
   Natives demand security and stability in their romantic relationships.
As a rule, they are extremely loyal to their
friends and lovers, and their affections are strong and long-lasting.
With Venus in Taurus, natives display a fondness for material comfort
and pleasant surroundings. They have a natural love for obtaining and displaying
material possessions and show great concern in maintaining personal beauty.
This extends to the people natives hold dear to them, and if Venus is
afflicted in this sign, they may become obsessed with cleanliness and beauty.
   Venus in Gemini marks those who think "variety is the spice of life".
Usually, it's difficult for natives to settle down in one romantic relationship
as their interest in others generally flits about between several loved
ones. These people may show a surprising lack of discrimination in the people
whom they consider special in their life.
Also, natives' charm and wit tends to attract large circles of friends
whom they feel comfortable with. As a rule, those they call friends and lovers
have keen and grasping intellects through which they express affections.
   Venus in Cancer people generally are well-liked because of their nonaggression,
non-threatening manner. Natives need to express their affections to loved ones
and want reciprocation in return to feel completely at ease. They should try
to remember that sometimes it is unnecessary to voice true feelings to a
loved one. Natives display a great deal of sensitivity in their romantic lives
and as such are vulnerable to the actions of loved ones. Security is greatly
needed by natives, especially in the domestic scene (which is usually realized
through marriage).
   With Venus in Leo, natives are natural romantics who enjoy the excitement
and challenge of meeting new people. The spotlight is their favorite place
to show off their witty love of life in both social and romantic climates.
Natives may tend to be attracted to people, though, who only make them look good.
Friendly and outgoing, natives are naturally compassionate to all they meet
while remaining loyal to loved ones and family. Generally, their affections
for others, which are usually demonstrative, frank and open, stay fixed for a
long time.
   With Venus in Virgo, natives treat others in an analytical manner,
dissecting their actions to understand their motives. As such, they may be too
critical of loved ones, inhibiting the spontaneity of expressing affections,
and their logical manner may befuddle those who care about them.
Shyness and a difficulty to relate with others is common; natives may
thus wait long to find a mate to fill their discriminating tastes. At work or
home, though, there is great desire to serve those they care about. This sign
usually produces people of a very generous nature.
   Natives' relationships with other people are of paramount importance to
them. They usually enjoy a number of close, personal friendships and gain a
measure of status and security more through relationships than through material
possessions. "Who you know" is very important to natives of this sign.
With this sign, Venus in Libra, there is a sense of aesthetic pleasure in
the things natives do. Striving for beauty and a sense of decorum in their
personal surroundings is common to them, in both their physical and emotional
life, and natives will generally try to extend this to those whom they love.
   With Venus in Scorpio, there is much passion and force in relationships
dealing with romance and emotions. As a rule, natives' power of attraction
is great, though this may go to their head! They usually pay enormous
amounts of energy and attention to their close friends and lovers.
These people tend to expect a great deal from others emotionally, since they
themselves give so much in their relationships. Thus, natives' intense passion
may lead to jealously if they feel their loyalty is betrayed. These natives should
emphasize relying on themselves first and foremost instead of others.
   With Venus in Sagittarius, natives are open, honest, and friendly in all
their personal relationships. They see religion and ethics as the basis for all
social conduct and conduct among friends and lovers. Usually, natives desire
a mate who shares the strong convictions of their own personal philosophy.
As a rule, these people's openness and frankness instills a love of travel
in which they can satisfy their desire for emotional satisfaction. They
may neglect close friends and lovers and spurn settling down so they can
find the "meaning of their life".
   With Venus in Capricorn, natives take their emotions and affections very
seriously, and see marriage and long-term relationships as the means for a
feeling of security. There is definitely a sense of dignity in the way these
people comport themselves in public; in private, however, they are
demonstrative and open to loved ones.
Generally, natives seek companions whom they think will improve their
station in life, they may thus use loved ones unintentionally. Prestige and
wealth are common to those whom natives care about.
   With Venus in Aquarius, natives display friendliness to all they meet;
however, this may be as far as their emotional attachment goes to most people.
There is usually an openness and impulsiveness to their romantic relationships,
and generally little thought is given to the practical matters of maintaining a
long-term relationship.
As a rule, natives find standard moral strictures confining and seek their
own standards of conduct in personal relationships. Thus, their love principles
are an extension of the freedom they feel is necessary for good living.
   Natives are extremely romantic and sensitive to the feelings of others
whom they care about. Unless feelings of love are reciprocated; however,
natives will feel depressed and lonely, thinking their affections for loved
ones are in vain. With Venus in Pisces, they are extremely sympathetic to
others, especially the "underdog". Also, feelings of love are
the primary motivators for all the natives' actions; expressing affections
is paramount in maintaining their love life and they must be genuine or
natives may feel cheated.
   With Aries rising, their personality is one that shines brightly
around others; they act to satisfy their ego. Natives are natural
extroverts, with a personality that can only be described as "pioneering".
Their ambition and drive to excel make them unafraid to face challenges that
many times would be left undone by others. Thus, their willpower and assertiveness
needs an outlet or they find themselves easily bored. Also, natives should try
to develop the fine "art" of relaxing as well. This is especially true about
romantic affairs, although they display deep affection for family members. Their
restless nature, though, tends to keep them moving about to new places. These
people may also have a difficult time settling down.
   With Taurus rising, the natives' personality is marked by being practical
and down to Earth. Their endurance is unmatched by any other sign, and they use
this patience and plodding to attain the material possessions they so desire.
Since making money and gaining prestige are important to them, their open personalities
may tend to extend to people whom they see can further their aims, thus,
natives must be careful not to see others as merely "objects".
As a rule, these people are sympathetic and compassionate to friends, and they
make good co-workers who cooperate easily with others. However, they should
guard against combativeness and jealousy over others material success and
try to be successful on their own merits.
   The Gemini rising personality is naturally outgoing and makes friends
easily, regardless of status. Natives have a natural talent for gaining the
help of others in projects, although they may tend to "drop out" at the first
sign of trouble. Also, they like to do things which meet others approval and
must learn that being original and avant-garde is not such a bad thing.
As a rule, these people are "idea people", constantly flitting about from
one thing to another. Unconsciously, there is a nervousness about them which is
especially prevalent concerning financial and material matters. Also, personal
relationships may suffer since "settling down" is not typical of them.
Natives must learn to be patient with other people.
   With Cancer rising, the natives' personality is marked by strong emotionalism.
These people tend to react to events and people more through feelings
than through rational thought. Also, they are very sensitive to friends and
lovers and will do much to show concern for and protect their feelings,
sometimes being overprotective of loved ones.
Home and family are extremely important to natives. Like the Crab, when
trouble comes they tend to scurry to a secure place. When they feel free from
danger, though, these people do well, throwing themselves into work or problems
with great determination, for success is important to them. However, natives
must not consider success just as being on the material level.
   With Leo rising, natives are self-assured and have a zest for life.
Not easily swayed by others opinions, they are willful and proud.
Also, they see no problem in expressing themselves vociferously
in almost any situation, occasionally causing problems
since their opinion is not always asked for. Occasionally, these
people are "show-offs" who like others who hold the same beliefs as they do.
Their natural assertiveness drives them to impress others with ideas and they
make excellent salesmen in proving their point. Intimate relationships
may suffer, however, from a difficulty to compromise and these
natives should try to develop better listening habits around others.
   With Virgo on the Ascendent, natives are sensitive to others and willing
to serve others, not so much to make themselves feel good but because they think
that helping others is a true sign of justice. There is an independence about
them readily apparent, and natives would rather do things themselves than go for
help, because they trust themselves more than anyone else.
With the Virgin as the symbol of the natives' rising sign, they are adept at
remaining above many of the petty things in life and coming through crises
unharmed. Also, they take their intimate relationships very seriously and seek
pleasures and hobbies which conform to the traditional mores of society,
rather than go against the "mainstream".
   With Libra on the Ascendent, natives appear unassuming and shy around
others. However, they strongly desire companionship and tend to
get along very well with compatriots. These people like to please friends and many
times will do things which, in their minds, is most fair and equitable since
strife of any kind usually upsets natives a great deal.
Their deep feelings about loved ones extend to work and career as well.
Thus, they are most happy when they feel their work is benefiting both
society as well as themselves. Also,
natives express strong feeling about family but
tend to think with their practically where romantic relationships are involved.
   With Scorpio on the Ascendent, natives' personality is marked by
stoicism and self-control. Inwardly, they have great courage and determination
which manifests itself by their strong work ethic. They may tend, though, to be
too critical of others and may drive them as hard as they drive themselves.
Natives sometimes even feel guilty about just relaxing instead of doing something.
Generally, these people are adept at getting what they want since they know how
to bargain for what they truly desire. As a rule, natives have little trouble
attracting both friends and lovers. Further, there is a tendency to engage
in many different intimate relationships before giving their heart. There
is also a great desire to be respected by friends and loved ones.
   With Sagittarius rising, natives display great openness and friendliness
which accentuates the great love of freedom which they have. These people greatly desire
to be liked and will do practically anything to gain others' friendship. However,
they tend to take friends for granted and see them only in terms of helping them,
frequently failing to see past the "surface" of another person.
For the most part, natives expend tremendous energy in creative endeavors,
although their work is always practical and beneficial. Also, they show
ardor and passion in intimate relationships and enjoy activities like sports
which are both challenging and full of energy and excitement. There is a
genuine love of experiencing new things and they may go out of their way to do it.
   With Capricorn as the rising sign, natives display seriousness and
stoicism which are manifestations of their inner strength and discipline. In general,
they are aloof and reserved around strangers; even with friends these people are difficult
to get to know for they tend to think of themselves as "islands" among people.
Natives should not be afraid of "opening up" to loved ones.
As a rule, these people do not take relationships lightly. Although they may
have few intimate ones, they are aggressive in maintaining them and strongly devoted
to them; they have a "never say die" attitude about relationships. Also,
these people are extremely loving of family members, particularly children,
although they may dote on them and spoil them too much.
   With Aquarius rising, natives can only be described as "unique". They
display originality and free-spiritedness which underscores their love of
freedom for both themselves and others. In general, they are outgoing to all they
meet and slow to judge others based on their beliefs or status. Natives
tend not to be discriminate about the type of people they associate with.
Stubbornness and rebelliousness are common traits as they are frequently
aggressive in defending ideas which are products of their fertile intellects.
Also, these people tend to like others and engage in intimate relationships more for
satisfaction in intellectual pursuits than in passion or emotions. Thinking
is frequently more important to natives than feeling.
   With Pisces rising, the natives' personality is marked by idealism and a
vision which is farseeing. They are agreeable to others and frequently fail to
see the wrong in anything. Thus, they rarely admit defeat and believe that all
things turn up good; therefore, these people may expect too much from others.
In general, they are "romantics" who are extremely emotional and care
deeply about loved ones. There is a tendency to be devoted to someone they
care about, and going out of their way to please them is not uncommon.
Natives may thus be used by others because of their giving nature; they need
to learn that rational thought is just as important as emotional thought. Also,
they frequently expect others to act as giving and generous as they do.
   With the Sun in the First House, natives have a strong ambition and desire
to succeed. Further, they are confident and energetic when dealing with
others and may truly believe that nothing is impossible.
   With Moon in the First House, natives' emotional personality is tied to
their strong desire for personal recognition. Early life, particularly their
relationship with their mothers, may affect actions later in life.
   Mercury in the First House indicates one with a keen and grasping mind.
There is a tendency, though, to be more concerned with what the native thinks
