Progressed Moonsigns and body care

The progressed chart is the chart for the xth day after birth, valid for the xth year after birth. This month January 2010 Astropost.blogspot.com is dedicated to the progressed chart! And this week is about the progressed Moon, the progressed Moonsign, the aspects of the progressed Moon and more...Use the label 'progression' to see more about progressons. For more about the natal (birth) moon in sign, just search this blog (tool on the left) for your sign. You can calculate the progressed Moon on Astro.com, but you need to know your hour of birth!

Today is about the changing sign of the progressed Moon. When the progressed Moon changes sign, you might feel your ‘mood’ changing and some parts of your body need more care than before. Don't take it too seriously, however...:) It is ancient stuff. My grandfather used to carry a guide with him, using the info in the kitchen and in the garden. His diet was according the names of the days of the week (Monday for Moon and white food, Wednesday for Mercury and yellow food, etc. ). He believed that on the days that the actual moon is in a water sign (Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces), plants -and people!- like to have water more than on other  days and that it was better to start a diet on the first day of Full Moon. 

Progressed Moon to Aries

Time to take care for your eyes, hair and brains and to avoid chemical treatments (like dying hair). You react stronger now. Avoid watching screens (like tele and computerscreens) or your eyes will hurt. Maybe it is time for a change of diet and time to have more red coloured food (like tomatoes, strawberries and meat or red wine) for the next two years. 

(I have Progressed Moon in the 14^th of Aries now and I really have a problem with screens and glasses right now, in spite of ‘computer glasses’.).

Progressed Moon to Taurus

Mouth, throat and jaws are more sensitive now. Don’t shout. Maybe you should eat more green food and vegetables. 

Progressed Moon to Gemini

Time for a fresh walk outside, moving your arms (but take care not to catch a cold). Have more yellow food (except for the fat), like corn and lemon juice. 

Progressed Moon to Cancer

Don’t overeat yourself or harm your stomack and eat white or neutral coloured food. Or have some lobster.

Progressed Moon to Leo

Don’t work to hard and safe your back! Eat sunny food like oranges, eggs and carrots more. And if you have to train anything, try not to become a party animal or you have to do a diet with Moon in Virgo...

Progressed Moon to Virgo

The best things to do now: having a bath, listening to good music and sigh a bit. That is all. Eat pure and sober, have cheese instead of meat and keep cool.

Progressed Moon to Libra

Have a lot of herbal and green tea or water to take care of your kidneys. Vegetables are OK! Perhaps you might do some training to keep your balance.

Progressed Moon to Scorpio

The good thing about this move is that alcohol is OK now (except for AA-members, of course). Sex is better than ever, too. You can eat about anything now, but you might like spicy food more...On the other side it seems that there is a risk of moulds and that you need to take better care of the excretory and sex organs. .

Progressed Moon to Sagittarius

Mind your sciatica (the nerve from hip to foot) and avoid stairs and alcohol now. You like to travel more than usual. If you don't have money to travel, try to have foreign food. However, avoid exuberance or you will have hard times with Moon in Capricorn. Sagittarius needs fresh air, so why not have more picknicks and barbecues on a sunny day?

Progressed Moon to Capricorn

Your bones and knees need to be taken care of, so don’t ‘jog’ and swim instead. If your knees hurt because you gained weight with Moon in Sagittarius, now is the time to learn how to control yourself. Less is more! Dark food and wearing onyx will help you on the way.

Progressed Moon to Aquarius

High heals are bad for you now! And watch your ankles or train them carefully. You are 'in' for experiments now, so this is the perfect period to try new recipes and combinations. 

Progressed Moon to Pisces

When your P Moon moves to Pisces the pedicure is happy! (I started making appointments with a pedicure with P Moon in Pisces) Please take in mind that the effect of medication, alcohol and drugs is much stronger with Moon in Pisces. Eat more fish with Moon in Pisces!

PISCES Sun sign Pisces, Moon, planets, Ascendant and MC in Pisces

Pisces is the very last sign. Mutable quality and water element.
Neptune rules Pisces (Jupiter used to be ruler of Pisces)

Keywords for Pisces are:
cooperation, empathy, go with the flow, sacrifice, secrecy, miracles, idealism, imagination, fake, informal, no limits

With a Sun in Pisces you:
- sacrifice yourself ("I will do that for you")
- or try to run when a difficult job waits for you ("I am too weak for that")
- give in under pressure ('Why fight against faith")
- disappear (maybe into your world of dreams)
- are very tolerant
- you are very sensitive (of atmosphere for example)
- are an idealist
- sometimes are a shark and bite the smaller fish
- have self pity (badly aspected or when in trouble)

Famous Pisces are Edward Kennedy, Edgar Cayce, Rudolf Steiner, Kurt Cobain (stellium in Pisces) and Bobby Fischer (what is in a name?:), but also Elisabeth Taylor and Michel Gorbatsjov.

Moon in Pisces
You need fairy tales and romance and when you do not get it under bad circumstances you may and up in trouble due to being naive, addicted and so on. You are a good secret keeper or you pretend to have secrets (to be a mysterious woman). As a trend watcher or social helper you could do a good job as you have a sense for what moves people at the time. Mothers with this position idealise their children and that can lead to disappointments. You may suffer from an allergy.

Add some music in your life with this position!

Lots of famous and artistic people have Moon in Pisces such as:

O.J. Simpson, Ravel, Klimt, Mahler and Tolkien, Robert de Niro and Michael Jackson. So does Hillary Clinton.

Mercury in Pisces
You think with a lot of fantasy, so maybe you'd better leave the administration to someone else. You can have an allergy for certain perfumes. And boy: a good fantasy. You can tell some stories! Lots of examples:

Yoko Ono, James Joyce, Alice Cooper

Venus in Pisces
Romantic, sacrificing love beyond limits. Cupido dreaming! You might be artistic. You can love a person very platonically (a movie star for ex. or another idol).

Maybe you are so blindly in love with an idol that you simply do not see the nice neighbour.

You love music and love to dance and share this position and favour with John Travolta and Diana Ross, Barbara Streisand and a Dutch abstract painter (Heiboer) who lived with 5 younger women without having sex with them.

Mars in Pisces
Waste of energy or realising dreams...Your motivation is not from this world, you must have an ideal to work for. Otherwise you drift away, maybe as a professional swimmer.

Michael Palin, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Getty

Jupiter in Pisces
Strong position of Jupiter still, this "believe in miracles and providence". Somehow with this position you have a lot of fantasy or endless luck and dreams might help you solve problems. Badly aspected you are overly tolerant or religious and might become a hermit (but a happy one and accompanied by a dog).

Kepler, Stalin, Maharishi, Oliver Hardy, Henry Miller and Tolkien

Saturn in Pisces
The opposite of Jupiter in Pisces, endless mistrust. They seem to feel obligated to suffer, be lonely or their faith is a heavy load to carry. Very few politicians have this position

Dalai Lama , Roy Orbison , Woody Allen

Ascendant Pisces
The positive side is being helpful and idealistic, knowing how to pretend (acting) and being tolerant whatever you do and you do it using your imagination. Or anonymously. Or with the use of media.

You do it inconsequent, too, others say, but you say you 'just adept'. There is a certain danger of being alone to much and closing your senses for the bad and ugly outer world and become an island (where you sure would like to be sometimes).

Badly aspected you do very negative and secretive. Pisces ascendant talks all the time. When those people stop talking, something is wrong...

Paintor James Ensor had this ascendant, so did Queen Wilhelmina (wrote a book about her youth called: Lonely, but not alone..). Whitney Houston has this ascendant too. I have it too (OH NO!(:

Midheaven or MC Pisces
You have an ideal to go for, like Robert Hand, Marc Penfield, Orff, Cher, and Hillary Clinton. The media play a big part in your career. Like in the life of Steven Spielberg.

Pisces is the sign of the immaterial, amorph, invisible...f.ex. religion, movies and fantasies, spiritual events...

AQUARIUS: All about the sun sign Aquarius, Moon, planets, Ascendant and Midheaven (MC) in Aquarius...

Aquarius is an air sign and a fixed sign ruled by Uranus (before Uranus was discovered Aquarius was ruled by Saturn)
Air = communication
Fixed = holding on

Keywords for Aquarius are: renewal, modern ways, making the world better, independency, reason

You show having Sun in Aquarius by:
- being just a little different than the rest (of the family or neighbourhood)
- openly having another opinion than the group
- revolt against suppression
- hearing, seeing and smiling (silence is not your style); being observant
- not showing emotions soon or trying to prevent it
- having to change everything every time

Like Placido Domingo, Neil Diamond and Oprah Winfrey

Moon in Aquarius
You have an independent soul and you sure do not like being obligated to have family meetings and so on. You may know a lot of people, but you keep a certain distance when it comes to emotions. Sometimes you have the nasty feeling you can laugh about your own misery. As a mother you are more a friend and sometimes distant too. You seem to care more about situations far away or abroad than about those close to you.

Cat Stevens and Princes Diana are examples of this. (I have Moon in Aquarius too, so has my son).

Mercury in Aquarius
You have a free and independent mind, like John MacEnroe. Computer studies might suite you. So do discussions with friends.


Venus in Waterman
Free love? You might love being independent, yes, and prefer being among friends. Lots of artists (musicians, singers and abstract painters) have this position.

Mars in Aquarius
Free sex? Could be one of the ways this placement works out, but mostly with Mars in Aquarius you become an auto freak or you just love teamwork, like Enzo Ferrari.

Jupiter in AquariusYou believe in progress and democracy and owe a lot to your friends. You have a lot of them!


Saturn in Aquarius
Saturn used to be strong in this sign. Today it is a placement for a person who feels the weight of society and friendships.

Ascendant in Aquarius
You do things independently, special and unique without showing emotions (preferably). Like Bjorn Borg and Roseanne Barr do.

MIDHEAVEN or MC in Aquarius
Aspirations! You want to be independent, free, unique and special. So do Bruce Springsteen, Niki Lauda and so did Kurt Cobain.

SAGITTARIUS All about the sun sign Sagittarius, Moon, planets, Ascendant and MC in Archer

Sagittarius is a flexible fire sign. Jupiter rules Sagittarius.

Keywords for Sags are: expansion, growth, progress and chasing, room and space.

Sun in Sagittarius? If you are a Sag you might show that like this:
- being tolerant (as long as you have space)
- not minding about details but loving visions
- being cheerful
- having confidence
- having your own opinion (very young already:)
- going your own way and doing it your own way (like Sag Frank Sinatra in the famous song)
- always knowing better
- laughing too loud (and thus annoying the depressed...:)
- giving advice to those who did not ask for it
- asking for advice and doing something else
Badly aspected Sags can be very indiscrete and unreliable like a flag in the wind.

Moon in SagWell, you may not really BE cheerful, but you think acting cheerful is a good thing always. You need progress and good news, cannot do without and when you pretend being happy you might actually become happy (you hope). Sometimes you just overdo that! When things are getting wrong or bad you became nervous and hurried.

Billy Graham is a good example of this positive attitude.

Mercury in Sag
Mercury is weak here. Sag wants to learn but teaches better. They just know it, you know. So they would better study languages or philosophy. Badly aspected this Mercury has a big mouth and a lot of criticism. But usually those people have a tremendous vocabulary and speak very well.

Venus in Sag
You are lucky in love or you married to be better off, anyway: you ARE better of married. And when it comes to a divorce you want another one. You like to travel and have an exotic taste. There are some famous singers born with Venus in Sag. You sure SOUND, like Tina Turner, for example.

Mars in Sag
You work with enthusiasm and in discussions you are very sharp sometimes. But generally you are a good sportsman.

Jupiter in Sag
The symbol of the faith in coming fortune and progress! In future everything will be better, you believe. But sometimes you tend to spend the money before the gold comes in ...Sarah Fergusson has this placement and got into financial troubles. Another big spender is Pim Fortuyn (Dutch right wing politician who had a very wealthy decorated house, a villa in Italy filled with art and a Daimler).

Saturn in Sag
Hypocrite? Maybe, but then Michael Jackson, Madonna and Prince are too. You have a great sense for justice and religion or conviction might play a heavy role in your life.

Sag for ascendant
You are the exponent of the good life. Extravert, open and enthusiastic (if not limited by a bad Saturn aspect, of course...:) You sure know how to present yourself at best. Although sometimes you overreact or overact.

Just like Bob Geldof, Prince William and John Kerry

Midheaven in Sagittarius or...Sag for MC
Your goal is to succeed, make progress or be the wise guy, like Nostradamus.

SCORPIO: All about the sun sign Scorpio, Moon and planets in Scorpio, Ascendant and Midheaven in Scorpio

The sign of Scorpio is a fixes water sign. Ruler of Scorpio is Pluto. Before the discovery of Pluto Mars was considered ruler of Aries and Scorpio.

Keywords for Scorpio:
to defend, all or nothing, reorganising, reproduction, challenge and problem

You show your Scorpio sun :
- by making life difficult for yourself
- having high demands on yourself and others
- not avoiding challenges
- showing courage
- wanting to be the strongest (mentally and/or physically)
- be the last man/woman standing
- if you boldly go where no one would go if he/she was not a Scorpio
- to take the lead when things get difficult
- to want to be a winner (you hate loosing)

Often Scorpio is related to sex, murder and all other taboos. But the other side of Scorpio is research and technique.

As Scorpio is a sign of extremes you find some extreme examples here:
Charles Manson (4 planets in Scorpio)
Marc Dutroux (3 planets in Scorpio)
Bill Gates, Billy Graham, Grace Kelly and Andy Warhol

Moon in Scorpio
You are used to have to defend yourself when you have Moon in Scorpio, so you start defending immediately. If not yourself than your intimates. You need challenges and if there are not any you make them by making difficulties. And when you care or work as a caretaker you take on the most difficult jobs, the psychological problems or the mother-and-child care.

Truman Capote had this moon. So did Nostradamus.

Mercury in Scorpio
A fanatic student, going on until he/she is an expert. Your childhood might not have been easy.

Venus in Scorpio
Challenges in love and relationships...It is all or nothing for you in love. Some persons with this placements had problems and decided it will be a Venus in the desert forever. But when the aspects are good: strong and fanatic love and deeply true!

Mars in Scorpio
The strong man who always finished his job. The fanatic worker born for burnout...

Jupiter in Scorpio
Being fanatic in your conviction and thinking everything is justified to defend that, like Koresh did. But in general: deeply knowing you are right.

Saturn in Scorpio
Making a problem of your career and status, so that limitations are your challenge and you look severe and fanatic sometimes.
When Saturn is in Scorpio there is a demand to economize.

Bill Gates (richest man in the world), Kevin Costner

Ascendant in Scorpio
You look nastier. stronger or sexier than you might really be. You are not easy to be approached. The cactus from outside! With bad aspects women are a bitch with this ascendant. You really look brave if you are a man and people might fear you.

Examples? Margaret Thatcher, Grace Kelly, Edit Piaf, Vladimir Putin

MC in Scorpio
Your goal is to win, even if it is not easy! You seek a difficult goal in life, like Che Guevara did. You demand a lot in your carreer making.

LIBRA All about the sun sign Libra, Moon and planets, Ascendant and MC in Libra

Libra is an air and cardinal sign ruled by Venus. Air is about communication and interaction! Venus is charm.

Keywords for Libra:
Balance and compromise (and to achieve that: diplomacy and charm)

You are a true Sun in Libra when you:
- are proud of your partner
- give in to keep peace and quiet
- became a middle manager or diplomat
- need company
- want to do everything together with another person
- arbitrage in rows
- make things look better than they are
When you are a Libra you do not want to be alone for long.

You would expect perfect examples of nice and diplomatic Libra's, would you?
But here are some:

- Klaas Bruinsma (Dutch criminal, got shot)
- Truman Capote (famous for a book about murder)
- Winny Mandela (not so kind ex-wife of Nelson)
- president Putin (politicians have a lot of influence of Libra, of course)


Moon in Libra
Moon in Libra just cannot decide. Picture yourself a changing shape on a moving balance and you can understand why not. But those Moons in Libra have a nice attitude and know how to be popular and charming. They just NEED company. Mothers with Moon in Libra might pay special attention to the equal division of candy among their children...

George W. Bush and Sylvester Stallone are some having moon in Libra.

Mercury in Libra
Such a pleasant conversation you can have with them. And such a diplomacy. In studies you are very calculating. You want studies to be fun in the first place.


Venus in Libra
Good position for Venus. A diplomatic charming Venus having good taste in choosing a partner. Those people are representative! But for men sometimes a difficult position. They meet so many beautiful women! Like Bill Clinton. And Sean Connery (first James Bond)

Mars in Libra
A difficult position for a marriage for Mars brings aggression and fights. You DO something when you see someone nice so maybe being loyal might not be easy.

But OK, you CAN work on a relationship and you can WORK together. As long as you and your partner have sport together or join in the job it is OK. Until bad times arise...

Bill Clinton and Bill Gates are examples.

Jupiter in Libra
You believe in peace and harmony. If everybody joined you there would be heaven forever. With afflictions you are convinced that all goes well even if you make no special efforts and you might be a little naive.

Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Madonna and Michael Jackson have this position

Saturn in Libra
A heavyweight hanging in a balance just asks for contra weight or else ends up down. Company and partnership is very important for you and sometimes a burden load. You feel obliged to be loyal and like to make contracts to be sure of the other person (and yourself).

Libra ascendant
You do it charming, diplomatically, nicely and like a team player though behind that kind appearance might be a totally different person. You always do it politely and preferably in a nice and well decorated environment. You are beautiful or at least representative and get a lot of compliments.

Who? John Kennedy, Jimmy Carter, James Dean

Libra MC
Your goal is harmony and beauty. Hard working does not really belong to your destiny, you feel. So you will find a balance between work and rest. In your profession diplomacy or beauty is needed.

Princess Diana and Brigitte Bardot had Libra MC in their charts.

VIRGOAll about the sun sign, Moon and planets in Virgo and about Ascendant and MC in Virgo

Virgo is the second flexible sign. Virgo is the second earth sign.

Keywords of Virgo are: service, details, minor things, usefulness and skill

You show having Sun in Virgo and being a Virgo by:
- wearing perfect combinations (shoes white, handbag white, earrings white)
- telling your partner all the time about the things that do not fit in his outfit
- being proud when your boss is grateful for your services
- thinking things you cannot see or use are worthless
- change the place of the furniture every now and then
- being sarcastic when times get hard
- being a perfectionist.
Diets are Virgo related. Maybe that is why Twiggy is a Virgo. But so was Freddy Mercury.

Moon in Virgo
You notice every little thing and that is why you are of perfect use in practical processes such as photography. As a mother you like your children nice and clean and you do never forget the plants in the office. A modest attitude and at least pretending to be useful: that is Moon in Virgo.

Mercury in Virgo
Here Mercury is strong in sign. You are the kind of student that never simply accepts what the teacher tells you. Your mind is critical.

Venus in Virgo
You are very critical and choosy. Maybe that is why this placement of Venus is considered a sign for not getting married at all. And if they do it is because it is useful, practical or 'it should be done now'. In art Venus in Virgo is the kind of art product you can use practically, like a beautifully designed teapot. But: there ARE artists with Venus in Virgo:

These two artists have Venus in Virgo in the 5th house too: Louis Armstrong and Cliff Richard.
All of the artists below have Venus in Virgo:
- Bob Geldoff (Venus in Virgo in the 9th)
- Andrea Bocelli Venus in Virgo (born 22nd of september 1958, Sun in Virgo too)
- J.K. Rowling (Venus in Virgo, born 31st of July 1965)
- Mick Jagger Venus in Virgo in the equal 2nd house
- Eminem (17th of October 1972) Venus in Virgo
- Vicky Leandros (23th of august 1952) Venus in Virgo
- Julio Iglesias (23 September 1943) Venus in Virgo
- Carl Orff (Venus in Virgo conjunct IC) – 10th of July 1895 3h15 München

Mars in Virgo
The handyman, the realistic and practical service man, the cool guy. Badly aspected you are often aggressive to your employees. Example: George W. Bush!

Jupiter in Virgo
Symbolises the cynical and critical person who just does take everything for granted. The advantage of this placement is that you are lucky in finding good employees.

Saturn in Virgo
Symbolises those who have to work with details and be accurate and those who want to make a career in administration and services. Sometimes spending a lot of time on tiny details....

Ascendant Virgo
Hugh Hefner surrounds himself with beautiful young ladies and Virgo might be the symbol of that. But in general those with ascendant Virgo act like decent people. You will not find a spot on their clothes!

MC VirgoServices, administration, practical use and skill, that is what you want to have and be known for.

LEOAll about the sunsign Leo, Moon in Leo, planets, Ascendant and MC in Leo

Leo is a fixed fire sign ruled by the Sun himself. So Leo is the sign of manifestations, being a star and being noticed.
Keywords for Leo are: strong will, show, pride and vitality.

You show (and you might sure say SHOW) you are a Lion by':
- wanting to be in the middle of the attention (esp. as a child you can sure draw some attention!)
- wanting to be the boss, the champion or the star
- showing off (sometimes with body building)
- being bossing around (somebody has to be the boss and that might as well be Leo)
- placing honour and honesty above all
- being arrogant
- being expensive
- talking too loud

Examples? Mick Jagger, Schwarzenegger, Fidel Castro

Moon in Leo
Those with Moon in Leo have a sense for status and sometimes they walk around showing off where there in fact is nothing to be shown but fake. It is a position for pretensions. They just have a need to draw attention and look royal (dressed up with 'jewels', 'furs' etc.).

Evita Perron, Margareth Thatcher, Nancy Reagan, Raisa Gorbatsjov and queen Elisabeth have such a moon in their chart.

Mercury in Leo
When you talk all the rest must keep silent (willing or not). You have noble opinions but sometimes you tell them to arrogantly. As a student you hate details. You do a study with all your heart.

Venus in Leo
Loyal is royal. You like to spend money when you love and adore someone to show your pride. Venus in Leo might also mean 'women attracting attention'. Maybe that is why Rubens has this position:)?

Mars in Leo
The managing soldier, fighting openly and proudly. Active as a leader, but as a boss (in trouble or with bad aspects) you are aggressive sometimes!

Examples? Al Gore

Jupiter in LeoSelf confidence! Believing in life itself.

Bill Gates, John Paul II as examples.

Saturn in LeoLimited vitality. The serious side of life and the load of leadership. Respect is very important for you. You always stay correct.

Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela, Schwarzenegger, Al Gore


Ascendant in Leo
Whatever you do you will make sure it is noticed! Muhammad Ali is a great example of ascendant Leo, esp. when he shouted: "I am the greatest!". But all that noise might be covering up someone else...

And yes, Mick Jagger, George Pompidou, Charles and Camilla, Marilyn Monroe and O.J. Simpson share this ascendant.

MC in Leo
You want to be the star, the leader or the boss! Or at least be noticed...

CANCER All about the Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC and planets in the sign of Cancer

CANCER
There are 3 water signs: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Cancer is the first water sign.

There are 4 cardinal signs: Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. Cancer is the second cardinal sign.

(initializing emotions)

Cancers’ ruler is the Moon. The moon is a periodically changing image in the sky. Maybe that is why Cancer is being influenced - by circumstances - more than other signs are. The astrologer Ram once said Cancer is the sign of 'sucking up emotions'. Like a sponge.

Cancer keywords: bias, dramatising - acting - , to care, to collect, to nurse, keeping emotions alive. Family, background, and the basic needs (food f.ex.) belong to the sign of Cancer.

SUN IN CANCER
You show the world you have a Sun in Cancer by:
- taking care of family members

- wanting the support of a family or group (f.ex. having your holidays with all of the grown up children)

- do efforts to keep history alive (f.ex. guarding the family photo album)

- being active in the environmental field

- honouring family traditions

- being a nationalist or supporter

- seeing your home as your castle

- adapting to your role or part in the play

- sometimes being bad humoured and complaining

- wanting to keep things simple

When a Cancer is not able to show feelings health could cause problems. The stomach is in trouble when emotions arise.

Both princess Diana and Camilla had/have Sun in Cancer.


Moon in Cancer (a very strong moon!):
You respond emotionally to your environment and close ones and have a special bound with family/mother. An attic full of photo's, a soul full of memories...When in trouble or afflicted you really think your intimates are the best, whatever they do is right and you support them all the way. This strong moon is at best when emotions are involved. But charity begins at home.

Mercury in Cancer
You are a traditional thinker. You can bring your messages with a certain amount of drama. Your memory should be good with Mercury. in Cancer. You tend to say something 'feels good' when you mean you think it is o.k.

Venus in Cancer
Sentimental love! You are the sort of person for the Dutch TV serie 'Memories' where people of old age search for lovers of the past. You just keep searching for reviving that first memory of love! Sometimes with Venus in Cancer you marry a person you know from the past. Venus in Cancer has a little more chance of more than one relationship in life.

Mars in Cancer
You do things based on experiences or out of memory. This is not a strong position for Mars, acting emotionally. When emotions are involved you can get angry. Your stomach might get irritated, you may eat to fast, you can quarrel at home...But at best you are the man about the house.

Ehmmm...like Nostradamus and Shakespeare.

Jupiter in Cancer
Traditional belief or a conviction 'from home'. You have faith in traditions and family support and you just love cooking (and eating:). Simple things make you happy! Good position for a doctor or a vicar making house calls.

Saturn in Cancer
A weak position of Cancer. The emotions are being limited and restricted and there is a tendency to be way too economic. There may be little support of the family or you just feel that your family is not supportive enough. There is little faith in the help of the communion or the family. Well aspected this Saturn is just being vigilant and has a special sense of what things are worth (Taxation)

Moliére has this position and a famous story of his is The Miser...George W. Bush has this position too.

Cancer ascendant
You do things with care and emotions. Women with this ascendant look very feminine (f.ex. Dolly Parton, Ursula Andress). Special ability of this ascendant: being a star being absent (getting attention with NOT attending). You might be a little shy.

Cancer MC
You want to take care, show emotions, use your experience. You could do this anywhere: on stage, in the household, in food industrie, in healthcare (psychiatry or psychology). It is important for you to feel '' at home ' wherever you have your career.

GEMINI All about the Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC and planets in the sign of Gemini

GEMINI, dual or split?
There are 3 air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius). So Gemini is the first arising.

There are 4 movable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Aquarius). So Gemini is the first movable sign.

Gemini keywords: communicating and interacting (talking, writing, phoning), learning and passing through the knowledge, instructions, dualism, more than 1


Sun in Gemini:
You demonstrate to have your Sun in Gemini by:
Having a lot of acquaintances
Knowing the news first
Always hanging on the phone
Loving to get around and be around
Staying young at heart always
Flexibility with the facts
Being able to do 2 things at a time
You do not seem to have patience with ‘nitwits’ but sometimes you act as a know-it-all and do not stick to all the facts…When times are hard of when afflicted you do not stop talking (about others too) and you twist and turn around the facts wherever the winds blows.

Brooke Shields has 4 planets in Gemini plus MC, as an example!

Moon in Gemini
Sometimes people do not get you, as you seem to have two faces. You are the kind of woman that cooks while watching television and nursing a child at the same time, no problem, but you prefer going out shopping. That is because you want to follow the trends and look young and modern.

Mercury in Gemini
Mercury is strong in Gemini, so communicating is your force. Whit bad aspects or in times of trouble you may have a split tongue, but in general you know a lot, your nice talking to and you gesticulate a lot.

Venus in Gemini
You just love talking and sometimes you are a flirt. It is said Venus in Gemini produces more than 1 marriage or long-lasting relationship and sometimes you have two lovers at the same time, being unable to make a choice. In general you love shopping, making short travels and be on the move. Venus in Gemini often loves dancing!

Mars in Gemini
You can do two things at the same time or have two jobs at the same time or be equally active in two places at the same time, like magic. In a debate you are very sharp and bright and your words might hurt. When afflicted you produces rows (verbal, of course). You are technically handy.

Jupiter in Gemini
Two convictions? Or non at all. Jupiter in Gemini loves to know a lot of people and learn through coaching and training. Maybe you are a member of Scientology? Or (badly afflicted) you are a convinced non-believer. You believe in progressing knowledge. And whatever you believe, you do not take it that seriously.

Examples? John Travolta and Brooke Shields…recently been ‘attacked’ by a Scientology man: Tom Cruise (who BTW has Jupiter in Pisces); n

Saturn in Gemini
You mistrust communication but you can concentrate on two things at the same time like nobody can.

An example: Dutch Princes Margarita (daughter of princess Irene, sister of the queen) who was convinced there was a microphone hidden when she was being interviewed and the queen did it. Later it appeared to have been an nail. She is now back in the arms of the royal family again…

Ascendant Gemini
Looking forever young, swiftly talking, having the appearance of someone without problems of any kind, curious and busy.

MC Gemini:
With this MC your goal sometimes seems to wrong-foot the audience/public. Your image might have two sides. And you can have two careers that may have a link, for example as a director and an actor.

Examples: John Cleese, Michael Palin

TAURUS All about Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC and planets in the sign of Taurus

- literally working with the hands in the earth
- having cattle
- regarding your money, earnings and possessions as the most valuable in life
- being stubborn and unwilling to move into another direction in life

You like to take your time and be careful always. They cannot easily make you mad, but if they do they see you turn into a wild bully!

Moon in Taurus
The sun in Taurus IS easygoing and you long to be easygoing. So you surround yourself with the more sensual and comfortable things in life and nice objects of art (paintings, sculptures). You are very loyal to family, kids and old friends, One of the nasty things of a moon in Taurus is too think that they have not been treated as they should have been or as they deserve. In which cause they react very emotionally and stubborn. You need matter and material and money in the bank.

Mercury in Taurus :
The patient student, the person who just sticks to the same idea unwilling to change his mind, good memory and the tendency to keep talking about the same subject. Must spare the throat.

Venus in Taurus:
Strong position of Venus, good for arts and true love (or for a marriage that improves your finances). With afflictions: too much 'sugar'. Some examples:
Jacques Brel, George Boy, prince William and princess Diana, Colin Powell, Gary Glitter

Mars in Taurus:
The locomotive worker, starting slowly, but going on till the job is done and way beyond that point:). When mad, it is not easy to forget about it later. Good position for a sculpturer.

Jupiter in Taurus:
The conservative believer, looks naive but manages well, also in finance. Sometimes overeating, esp. the nice things (fat and sugar) and suffering from the results of that. Or wasting the money gained.

Saturn in Taurus:
The solid hard workers can be found with Saturn in Taurus.

Ascendant Taurus:
You appear to be naive, sensual and easygoing (until they make you mad) and sometimes these people have strong (fat) necks. Whatever you do, they do not stop you once you started. But you hate deadlines.

MC Taurus:
You want a life in luxury and money on the bank or a comfortable position, perhaps as an artist and you have that goal in common with Donald Trump, Tina Turner and O.J. Simpson.

ARIES All about Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC and planets in the sign of Aries....

ARIES
Aries; the fire starter (know that Prodigy song?:)

There are 3 fire signs (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius). Aries is the first.
There are 4 cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) Aries is the first

Aries keywords:
starting, kick-off, self-employed, on your own, fast, energetic, impatient, short activity, restless

Sun in Aries: you demonstrate that you are a Sun in Aries by:
- starting to live on your own a.s.a.p.
- being sportive
- not willing to be bound by a contract
- doing something after work (like do-it-yourself at home)
- having your own company or shop
a.s.o.

And because you are that active all the time you might end up burned out. You may want to start a project and leave the ends to someone else. You want to be in front of the troops always. And like to DO before thinking. So accidents might come your way...

Moon in Aries:
whereas the sun in Aries IS active you need to be active. As a mother you like to have a job AND children and your children should be independent a.s.a.p. You are used to having to do things fast and on your own.

Mercury in Aries:
with afflictions you might stammer, you always think and talk as fast as you can. You do not like long-lasting studies and when you study you like to keep it practical (studying sport, physiotherapy etc.) Your attention level is short.

Venus in Aries:
falling in love at first sight every other day? Might be Venus in Aries afflicted. Venus = love and taste. Aries = fast and quick burning. Not a fortunate position for marriage or long-lasting relationships, it is said. But is that so? Look at some examples of Venus in Aries:
princess Máxima (Netherlands), Lolita Flores, George Clooney, Eddy Murphy and eh,..Ratko Mladic, Sam Klepper.

Mars in Aries:
strong position. Mars rules Aries. The planet of the warrior and sportsman in the sign of activity. The fast worker, the real man (Clint Eastwood has this position), the person that cannot stop fitnessing. You are a do-type having this position.

Jupiter in Aries:
the active (Aries) person with a conviction (Jupiter) and the one that practises what he says to believe. Positive thinker!

Saturn in Aries:

the lone ranger, holding on whatever happens. Aries may be fast, but Saturn limits and endures. A long distance runner in every meaning of the word! Einstein had this position.

Ascendant in Aries:
you do it fast and better on your own. You are assertive and might have a prominent nose (just like the animal your sign stands for and like Barbara Streisand and John Lennon:).

MC in Aries:
you want to show you can do it and you are a fighter taking the lead.
(BTW When your progressed MC comes from Pisces into Aries you may drastically change!)

ACCIDENTS HAPPEN?

Accidents happen, but they happen more to certain people. That is the conclusion of an Dutch study by Ellen Visser (University of Groningen). Early 2005 the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf mentioned: ACCIDENTS ARE IN THE STARS. An investigation of the Service for Advice in Trafic (Adviesdienst Verkeer en Vervoer) lead to the conclusion that there is a relationship between star sign and deathly accident. And that relationship is corresponding with the ideas in astrology!

In 2003 there were 1028 deathly victims in trafic in Holland. Of them, 106 were Aries, 106 Gemini, 100 Sagittarius, 100 Pisces, 92 Taurus, 86 Cancer, 83 Leo, 80 Virgo, 80 Aquarius, 76 Scorpio, 75 Libra, and only 43 of them were Capricorns. Capricorn is the most carefull sign.

C.E.O. Carter studied the transits in the charts of people involved in serious accidents. I looked at those charts and concluded that their birth charts did give significant clues. That is in line with the idea of the study that Ellen Visser did now. She found out that the victims of accidents often had a tendency of self destruction shown by life style or even attempts to commit suicide.

The study that I did in 2004 can be read HERE.
