Other important points

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Alanis as “you”.

Besides planets and houses, some other points are also important for personal horoscope analysis, out of which only a few of the most important ones are considered here: two Arabic Parts (the Part of Spirit and the Part of Fortune), the North Node, Culminating planet, Rising planet and planets in domicile.

The Part of Spirit
is an Arabic Part which is calculated from the positions of the Sun, the Moon and the Ascendant, using the formula: ASC + SUN - MOON = the Part of Spirit. It represents your spirit, the point in personal horoscope in which we somehow connect all the most influential elements of personal horoscope into a common denominator.

The Part of Fortune
is also an Arabic Part which is calculated from the positions of the Sun, the Moon and the Ascendant, using the formula: ASC + MOON - SUN = the Part of Fortune. It represents the lucky point in your personal horoscope where you can best use your natural abilities.

The North Node
is an apparent point in the sky where the Moon orbit and the ecliptic intersect. It represents things which you have to work on to exceed your karma – things and experiences which enable your personal growth and through which you can fulfill your natural abilities.

Culminating planet
is the one closest to the axis of the 10th house (MC). It was therefore highest in the sky at the moment of your birth and so defines what you strive for in life.

The Rising planet
is the one closest to the axis of the 1st house (ASC). It was therefore the eastern planet at the moment of your birth and symbolizes your natural abilities.

Domiciles
Planets that are in the sign or in the house, in which they rule, are in domicile. It is possible you have no such planet or you can have more. These planets have an even more emphasized influence in your personal horoscope.

The Part of Spirit in Pisces

You have a very compassionate and reconcilable, also idealistic spirit. You are popular, because you mostly have a mild and understanding nature and you also rely on your unlimited intuition. On the other hand, you often don't see things clearly; you look for the good in everything and everyone, you face unpleasant situations, darker sides and not the most positive characteristics of individuals with great difficulty. Sometimes you slightly puzzle other people, you often have an artistic impression (even if you are not involved in artistic matters, however, it is true that you often do find yourself in artistic professions). You are extremely creative, but you need a lot of peace and quiet, because you like taking a lot of interest in yourself.

The Part of Fortune in Sagittarius

In life, you have quite some luck in all projects, all in all, you start working on all projects with enthusiasm and you instinctively choose such situations and also connections which bring you happiness and benefits on your future path and there are plenty of such circumstances and situations. In life, you always strive for progression and you ensure your happiness mostly by acquiring knowledge and by broadening your horizons. Exploring, foreign countries and everything connected to foreign countries makes you happy and perhaps you literally find happiness through travelling or the contact with a foreign country in some way brings you luck, in any case, luck accompanies your optimistic attitude towards life.

The North Node in Sagittarius

Because your North Node is in Sagittarius, your South Node is in Gemini
You are usually a dynamic, fast and clever person who likes to travel and to be very active. You have a very curious nature, you are interested in everything and at the same time you can process an enormous amount of information, but you often get lost in details or you give them too much time, energy and attention. It is important that you expand your interests and set your goals higher, you also need to develop and nurture heartiness (and not only your mind).

Venus as culminating planet

Because Venus is your culminating planet, you usually have a pleasant look and good manners. People appreciate you and want your company, you have numerous friends and acquaintances and you get support or help from many of them. You are interested in beautiful things, such as fashion, cosmetics, also nature, you are often successful in artistic professions, also in social work. In life, you have big possibilities to succeed. Because you are positively oriented and have good nose for business, the right opportunities come your ways and you also know how to use them.

Mars as rising planet

Because Mars is found eastern in your personal horoscope, you are dynamic and have exceptional strength and outstanding physical endurance. You are combative and impetuous and you usually fulfill what you set to do. Because you have so much energy, it is basically essential to direct you towards sport and similar activities already in childhood; but because of your restless energy, you are prone to injuries, also to headaches and high temperature. Perhaps your mother had a hard delivery with you or there were some health issues in pregnancy or during or after delivery; but because you are a born warrior with exceptional life energy and will, you always manage to have enough energy for self-renewal; it is only important that you beneficially direct and use excessive energy.

Moon in domicile

You are sensitive to external influences and negative vibrations from others and from the environment; your impressions are strong, so you quickly change your feelings and others sometimes find you moody and you are not understood. If you are in good mood, you are very funny, fun, pleasant, compassionate and warm, if you are in a bad mood, it is clear that everyone around you feel bad. You are usually prone to enjoying family happiness in a calm home environment, but you also love travelling.

Venus in domicile

You like living large, you love art, delicacies, in short – everything beautiful and delicious. You are interested in art and music, you like cooking and are also a good cook. You are stubborn and often jealous and possessive. You have keen sense of honesty and fairness, so your judgments and opinions are valued and appreciated. At work, you are usually hard-working and reliable, both in business and in partnerships (exceptions, of course, make the rules). You have a talent for painting, you are especially talented in plastic design.
