Other important points

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Benedict 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 Capricorn

You have a very realistic and traditional spirit and such is also your outlook on life. You trust and follow only tested values and more or less decide to take the preordained paths, systems and ways, but you love improving them. You have very good strategic abilities and you rarely let emotions influence your reasoning to the extent that would in any way demolish the course and rhythm of your actions and consequently also your progression. You are very aware of the hierarchy in every community, environment and system and you also respect the effort, abilities and talents of others. You are often an old soul, who chooses the heavier or longer path in life to achieve richer and more fruitful personal growth (even if other most important horoscope positions indicate a lighter picture).

The Part of Fortune in Cancer

Safety means the most to you and you direct all your ambitions into ensuring it; nothing brings you bigger and more lasting happiness than a safe haven. Because of your sensitivity, you instinctively act in a way that is good for you and you can protect yourself from unnecessary and even disturbing events and situations well. In other people, you often awake the desire and willingness to help you; you get the most help and support from people closest to you, parents and relatives, very often you also get extensive financial, not only emotional support.

The North Node in Scorpio

Because your North Node is in Scorpio, your South Node is in Taurus
You are usually a passionate, sensual and impetuous person, closeness and touch are very important to you. You often become very attached to people, but you may also be jealous and possessive. You like pleasures and secular things, what is tangible and what you can see are the only things that are real to you. You don't like giving in, you also often don't admit your mistakes, but you frequently can't even see them. You need to nurture a better contact with your inner world or with deeper layers of yourself, so that your inner strength won't be in your way, but will work for your benefit.

Sun as culminating planet

Because the Sun is your culminating planet, you radiate a lot of positive energy and are usually good-natured and kind, even if other factors in your horoscope don't otherwise emphasize this. You have pleasant character and behavior, so people like you very much. You have a positive attitude towards work and usually achieve success in business. You are attracted to politics and are interested in manifold areas, including sport, and you can also achieve good results in numerous of these areas.

Pluto as rising planet

Because Pluto is found eastern in your personal horoscope, others find you extremely attractive, interesting and charismatic. You radiate a certain mysterious energy, which hardly ever leaves others unimpressed, so you have numerous fans, but many people also don't like you or they feel uncomfortable in your company. You have enormous supply of energy, both physical and mental, you are extremely perspicacious, also demanding and difficult. As a child, you need mild guidance and mostly a lot of understanding, but absolutely nothing can be achieved with you under constraint. Perhaps you have certain health issues in childhood or your mother had a hard or special pregnancy or delivery or there were some problems in post-birth period. But because you have nature of a warrior and exceptional will and also good self-healing abilities, your healthy issues usually subside later on. It is very advisable to direct you into sport.

Saturn in domicile

You are a very ambitious person with accurately defined and set plans, goals and ideals. You are organized, systematic and methodical, you focus on your work with complete dedication. You expect and demand this also from your environment. You often put success in career before family life, although you can be a caring and responsible family person.
