Jung “The starry vault of heaven is in truth the open book of cosmic projection, in which are reflected the mythologems, i.e., the archetypes. In this vision astrology and alchemy, the two classical functionaries of the psychology of the collective unconscious, join hands.” ~ C.G. Jung “Astrology is a language, if you understand this language, the sky speaks to you.” ~ Dane Rudhyar “When you don’t follow your nature there is a hole in the universe where you were supposed to be.” ~ Dane Rudhyar “The goal of astrology is the alchemy of personality. It is to transform chaos into cosmos, collective human nature into individual and creative personality.” ~ Dane Rudhyar Yournatalhoroscope,orbirthchart,isasnapshotoftheheavensatthemomentyouwereborn.Itshowswhatthe sky actually looked like at the time and place of your birth. Astrology in modern times has renewed the ancient discoverythatthesymbolismoftheplanetsthatsurroundedyouatbirthdescribesyourcharacterandpersonality. Planetsthatweredirectlyoverheadatthetimeandplaceofyourbirtharemostimportant,andwouldappearatthe very top of the chart or the Midheaven. Planets that were just rising above the horizon in the East at the time of your birth would appear near the horizontal line at the left hand side of the chart or the Ascendant. If the Sun appears in the top half of the chart, then you were born during daylight hours and have a more outer directed personality. All of these features reflect the factors at play in the Universe at the moment of your birth and are significant indications of the basic qualities and tendencies that continue to make up your personality. Each planet’s relative position in the sky and significant angles that it makes to the other planets, or aspects, are examined in this report.

Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org) Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England Chart Patterns Tripod You have the planetary pattern known as the 'tripod' shape. With your planets divided into three distinct groups, your personality tends to exhibit a considerable degree of self-sufficiency. You have the same characteristics as a Grand Trine personality type. There is a strong astrological element in your chart that is at your disposal, either Fire, Earth, Air or Water, depending on the element where your planets are concentrated. Venus in Libra (24° Lib 25') Venus in the Third House The Sole Dispositor helps form your core personality, it ultimately rules all the other planets of your chart: Venus in Libra gives a gentle nature, one who is considerate and kind. You are inclined to be "young at heart. " With this placement you highly value relationship, and are genuine, direct and clear in its expression. You have a graceful sense of partnership with others, and your affection may be expressed more fully on mental and spiritual levels, rather than on the level of physical sensation. You make a good diplomat. You can see all sides of an issue and may have trouble in deciding on any one alternative, since they all have their good points in your eyes. You have refined aesthetic sensibilities, and a keen sense of color, and can function well with artful expression or interior design work. You are a pleasant and likeable companion, always ready to see the best in others.

With this planetary aspect pattern, in which three planets or conjunctions are in square with one another, you have a high degree of motivation and drive. Your energies are most easily and habitually expressed by the energy of the focal point, the middle of the T- Square. You may also compensate for overdoing in the area of life represented by the focal point, by leaning toward the empty pattern element opposite the focal point, seeking to balance your activity. The 1 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England lesson of this planetary aspect pattern is in learning to use your considerable energy wisely in the pursuit of your true goals. There is great tension represented by the focal planet or planets in your chart, where conflicting parts of your personality attain their focus and peak of energy, and you may observe compulsive behavior in the area of life represented here. Mars in the Sixth House (or sign) gives a kind nature, and an energetic worker, with a tendency to be fussy over details. You possess a tremendous desire to be helpful to others, and have a practical and hard- working orientation that assists you in making good on your intentions. You may however need to evolve through getting into conflicts over trifles. At your best, you have a real focus on the simple issues of life, and of the health of the body temple, and just showing up for what comes, day-to-day, that is essentially good natured and constructive rather than ego-oriented. You tend to be somewhat narrow in the application of your effort, and may need to learn to learn to start opening up to the bigger picture. It benefits you to take a more relaxed attitude and a wider and more tolerant worldview, rather than getting hung up on the minutiae of a project. Mars in Capricorn (or the tenth house) gives an ambitious, vigorous and persistent nature. You are conservative and careful but always able to reach the goal. You are fond of responsibility. You will achieve much in life, being naturally controlled and a good follower as well as a good leader, although your actions are more likely to be guided by social convention than personal ambition. You seldom speak without a purpose, and can have a reputation as the "strong silent type." In your highest manifestation, your energy is invested in satisfying collective needs, for the betterment of society around you. You may have to work through issues of pride, even arrogance, and you can sometimes arouse opposition or even hostility from others. You suffer from tunnel vision at times, and benefit from cultivating broader and more unselfish ways of looking at things. T-Square, focal planet Mercury You have a T-Square in your chart. With this planetary aspect pattern, in which three planets or conjunctions are in square with one another, you have a high degree of motivation and drive. Your energies are most easily and habitually expressed by the energy of the focal point, the middle of the T- Square. You may also compensate for overdoing in the area of life represented by the focal point, by leaning toward the empty pattern element opposite the focal point, seeking to balance your activity. The lesson of this planetary aspect pattern is in learning to use your considerable energy wisely in the pursuit of your true goals. There is great tension represented by the focal planet or planets in your chart, where conflicting parts of your personality attain their focus and peak of energy, and you may observe compulsive behavior in the area of life represented here. Mercury in Scorpio gives an intense and sharp-tongued personality. Your mental and observational powers are strong and your thoughts run deep. You have a deep-seated urge to communicate and connect with other people, that does not always find its realization. Your will is strong, and you have a passion for discovering the truth behind surface appearances. Your penetrating intellect will plumb the depths of any subject. You may not immediately express your ideas but rather wait until you feel the time is right. Or you may choose to get your point across non-verbally. You can thus appear to be secretive. You may 2 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England appear to be quiet and almost passive, but you are an acute observer of the world around you. You constantly, and perhaps unconsciously, make judgments about other people and should beware of being overly critical. It benefits you to cultivate a practice of understanding and acceptance. Mercury in the Fourth House represents a strong connection between your intellect and your inner emotional awareness. Your memory is excellent. You may have an unusual degree of access to information passed down from your family. You may also be easily influenced by your senses. You tend to personalize your sense impressions, for they directly affect your emotional state. You likely learn a given subject by feeling, or by contact with others, rather than by study. You are also likely to be in tune with ideas and concepts that you have learned from your father, or perhaps the same sex parent. You also have a deep respect in general for received wisdom passed down from ancestral or ancient knowledge. You may have strong psychic abilities, and your emotional connection to your artistic sensibility is strong. You benefit from striving for greater detachment in the formation of your opinions and ideas. T-Square, focal planet Pluto You have a T-Square in your chart. With this planetary aspect pattern, in which three planets or conjunctions are in square with one another, you have a high degree of motivation and drive. Your energies are most easily and habitually expressed by the energy of the focal point, the middle of the T- Square. You may also compensate for overdoing in the area of life represented by the focal point, by leaning toward the empty pattern element opposite the focal point, seeking to balance your activity. The lesson of this planetary aspect pattern is in learning to use your considerable energy wisely in the pursuit of your true goals. There is great tension represented by the focal planet or planets in your chart, where conflicting parts of your personality attain their focus and peak of energy, and you may observe compulsive behavior in the area of life represented here. Pluto in the Tenth House (or sign) gives you a forceful personality with a focus on issues of authority, power and control. You may in fact have a compulsion for control manifesting in difficulties with interpersonal relations or in rebellious attitudes toward established authority, or perhaps resulting in the charismatic personal magnetism of a natural leader. You may go through many changes in the course of pursuing your work in the world. You are a real powerhouse of energy, and enjoy being in charge, perhaps as a compensation for having felt overly controlled in your early encounters with authority figures. Your mother or your opposite sex parent was perhaps experienced as controlling, and you may have felt stifled in the individual expression of your self-hood. These early experiences are apt to give you a knee-jerk reaction to authority figures in your more mature manifestation based on unconscious impulses of fear and resentment. You might look to situations when you are fully in control as safe for you, and seek them out in your employment, such as being a self-starter or your own boss. You may, however, have difficulties maintaining a position of authority, once achieved. What is needed is a reevaluation and transformation of your urge for authority and control, based on a deeper understanding of yourself and a more conscious and socially responsible use of personal power. The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally: 3 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England Pluto in Taurus (or the second house) gives you tremendous focus around the issue of money and material possessions. With this placement you will transform your attitude toward the material, and your values in general, as you go through life. Finding your own base, independent of cultural norms, is an important theme for you. You may be apt to associate a sense of security with material possessions, or find yourself spending in a compulsive way for no apparent reason. You are a financial powerhouse, but there can be swings of fortune, up and down, as you will likely go through many changes in your attitude toward the material in the course of your life's journey. You may find that you move toward a more connected sense of security as you mature, one that does not stem from feelings of isolation and lack. You can then overcome your tendency to obsess on having enough through self-discipline and a realigning of values. When your values transform, your sense of self no longer depends on physical possessions, but rather on the deeper meaning associated with these things, which are symbolic of love and sharing. Yod, focal planet Venus You have a Yod planetary aspect pattern in your chart, also known as the 'finger of God'. This pattern consists of two different planets forming inconjunct aspects of 150` to a third, or focal, point. Usually there will be a marked emphasis on the area of life represented by this focal point, which may be one planet, or two or more in conjunction. You may have physical or psychological problems associated with the expression of the energies of the focal planet or planets, creating a subtle form of tension in your life. The key is adjustment. Your lesson is to transform the expression of these energies along more positive lines. Important Features Sun in Libra (19° Lib 14' 07") Sun in the Third House The Sun represents your will and purpose, your sense of vitality, and your evolving higher Self. In Libra it is Cardinal-Air and rules the kidneys. Your ruling planet is Venus. Libra is the sign of harmony and relationship. The Sun in Libra is at the time of the Equinox, when day equals night, and similarly Libra strives for balance between polarities. Librans are known for their good taste, elegance and charm. You are a seeker of harmony and beauty. Your natural mode of living is in partnership with others. Intimate relationships are quite important to you, as are issues of social justice. You forever hope that all parties in a conflict will be satisfied, and you have a tendency to understand and support both sides of a dispute, which can drive your friends crazy unless they are smart enough to value the mediation you naturally provide. You will go out of your way to avoid a quarrel, and you may have a hard time making a decision. Artistic pursuits of all kinds provide an outlet for your love of beauty. You benefit from strengthening your will to act in favor of your higher purpose, which rather than making any one individual all important, ultimately lies in dedicating yourself to humanity at large. The Sun in the Third House represents a concentration of the vital force of developing one's intellect and communicating one's ideas with others. You are keenly observant. You are constantly curious and have a 4 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England need to learn new ideas and exchange your ideas with those who can stimulate you. You may well be a good speaker or writer. Your observation skills may give you the ability to understand communicate scientific ideas. You may also desire to be seen for your knowledge. Striving to add to your storehouse of information enlivens you. You are on a journey that is about discovering everything you can about the world and then communicating your knowledge with everyone around you. You need to be intellectually stimulated and challenged in order to demonstrate your natural talents, start to develop a big-picture viewpoint, and share your unique discoveries with others. Chiron in Aries (24° Ari 16'R) Chiron in the Ninth House Chiron in the Ninth House (or sign) represents issues with one's vital force of abstracting and understanding universal truth. This placement can lead to high achievement in the scholastic arena, but it may be nagging doubts that you are not really good enough that spur you on, rather than a pure love of learning. There is likely to be some form of painful realization surrounding the pursuit of wisdom, or perhaps in the area of philosophy or religion. It may be that parental figures had different notions of what makes the world make sense than you did, but for one reason or another you didn't take them on. Perhaps you were too young at the time for such a challenge, and now in your adult life you feel the pull of the beat of a distant drummer, but feel ambivalent or not sure enough of yourself to really do anything about it. In your frustration you may even seek to help other people to work out their own concepts of higher knowledge, while you yourself remain stuck in the mud of prior patterns. If so, it is time to shake off the shackles of the past and get on with your individual sense of your own philosophical values and visions. Perhaps by delving into what associations you have with bad models from early childhood, you can begin to more fully and completely inhabit the natural vision that belongs to your higher self. Then you can truly shine in the world of ideas, as you move out from your own center rather than the point of balance represented by other, more alien, philosophies. The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally: Chiron in Aries (or the First House) represents issues with one's vital force to be, to act, to initiate. With this placement of Chiron, your very sense of who you are may be threatened by disturbing realizations and painful memories., You may have felt belittled and put down in your formative years, rather than encouraged, by the significant adult figures in your life. Even after reaching maturity, you may encounter obstacles that prevent you from reaching your full potential. These difficulties can set up a pattern for failure, in which you operate more from a fear of failing than the expectation of success that breeds confidence for further achievement. One way this may manifest is in terms of acting not in your own behalf, in furthering your own goals, but rather in behalf of the goals of other people, which seem somehow more important or at least get priority treatment. You may keenly feel a lack of achievement in your own life, and compensate by trying too hard to help these others, putting yourself in the background, as it were. As long as these patterns operate more or less unconsciously, they are difficult to overcome, so the first step in surmounting them is to become more conscious of your own pain; acknowledging and discovering more about what exactly went on in the past to make you feel frustrated with your own abilities. At that point you begin to come out from behind your painful experiences and really show 5 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England yourself. With a more conscious understanding of your own dynamics you can also begin to truly be of help to others, in how they deal with similar issues, as you start to approach them not from a false sense of vicarious achievement, but from a place of true friendship and helpfulness. Saturn in Aquarius (19° Aqu 31'R) Saturn in the Seventh House Saturn in the Seventh House (or sign) gives a pleasant personality with a deepening and concentration, or blockage, in the power to relate to others. You are easy to get along with, and you usually do well in the areas of partnerships and business relationships, being possessed of good judgment, diplomacy and tact. You are very self-reliant and yet also experience a sense of isolation in life, owing to subconscious fears regarding truly giving yourself to another. You may feel strongly the potential for being hurt in this way. You may look for a partner who is responsible, possibly older and wiser, and whom you therefore consider safe. You may also experience sorrow or difficulty in marriage. You are challenged to rise above this circumstance, which can become an opportunity for inner integration and balancing. Your lesson is to make better use of relationship on an inner level as a vehicle for self-discipline in order to further your own growth as an individual. The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally: Saturn in Aquarius (or the eleventh house) gives a socially adept and responsible individual, with a deepening and concentration, or a blockage, with regard to participation in groups and around causes. You are careful, conscientious and humane. You are gentle and strong, apt to be fair-minded and can appear at times impersonal, or cold and unloving. Group participation is quite important to you, and you place so much emphasis on it that you may have difficulties in feeling as though you belong to a particular group, or you may draw back from friendships from a fear of not being accepted. You have good powers of concentration, and place much importance on the betterment of society through constructive communal activity. You may be devoted to a spiritual discipline. Your lesson is to transform your narrow view of social acceptance on a personal level into a broader vision, in which you can meaningfully participate, of a more sharing society, one beyond the present level of a divided humanity. Uranus in Leo (19° Leo 08') Uranus in the First House Uranus in the First House (or sign) gives an individual with an original and eccentric mind, whose intuition is strong. Change and variety excite you. You are a nonconformist, and totally have your own code of ethics. You are constantly asserting your freedom and independence, which is the very breath of life for you. The Uranian energy can be impulsive, as well as insensitive to others' needs, and you can appear to be cold at times, or you may seem to be more excited by ideas than by other people. You may feel unrest and isolation, as though on a separate wavelength from the rest of mankind. Your mutability and urge for constant change can frustrate or confuse those around you. You may also feel uneasy in your sense of self, as you attempt to come to terms with this basic instability. You benefit from learning 6 / 22 Natal Report and Chart for Aleister Crowley born on October 12, 1875 at 11:42 pm near Leamington Spa, England practices that help balance your energy, and in developing understanding and acceptance that not everyone is as impulsive as you are. You are in your essence a free spirit, courageous and pioneering, whose mission in life is involved with bringing new ideas into being. The following applies to your generation as a whole as well as to you personally: Uranus in Leo (or the fifth house) gives a rebellious individual with a strong will. With this placement you tend to be determined to get your own way. You are reckless, original, and independent, and like to assert yourself. You can be very creative, especially in the arts. Whatever form your self-expression takes, it is likely to evoke you and no one else. Your unique viewpoint contributes to the potential for new genres and methods of accomplishment to come into being. Your approach to romance may also be different from the run of the mill. You may find yourself in unconventional in love affairs, perhaps with sudden beginnings or endings. Children are a source of great interest but you may have difficulties in giving them warmth and affection. You benefit from learning the joy that comes from a more heart-centered approach. You also benefit from more follow-through, focus and self-discipline, in order to successfully complete what is started. Moon in Pisces (22° Pis 48' 15") Moon in the Eighth House The Moon in Pisces gives a sweet and gentle nature. You are visionary and poetic, and very sensitive to spiritual values. You are compassionate and empathetic with other people. You may be something of a dreamer, and you may feel the need to escape at times, for the real world seems too cruel and unkind. You have great sympathy for the down-trodden and disadvantaged. You may experience some suffering through your emotions, especially if your inner needs are not being met. You also have a tendency to be easily swayed by others. It is very important that you be true to yourself, and to your inner process of striving toward spiritual understanding and the gift of sympathy toward your fellow-beings. The Moon in the Eighth House represents an intuitive emotional, sensitive, often psychic, connection with deep-rooted emotional experiences. You are naturally intuitive. You may be interested in knowing about subjects concerning mortality, life after death or other issues concerning death. You may be very psychic or have astral experiences because of your interest in after-life states. You have an innate ability to persevere and concentrate. Your instincts are strong and you can penetrate through deep emotions to perceive other people's motives. You can be emotionally vulnerable, and a have a strong need for security. You strive to experience the depths of your being, and are driven by intense love relationships and affairs. You have a strong urge to protect those you love and you are also likely to be a devoted marriage partner or parent. You may benefit from learning how to be more emotionally detached so that you can use your internal awareness in the world beyond personal interrelations. Jupiter in Scorpio (7° Sco 08') Jupiter in the Fourth House 7 / 22
