Other important points

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Bud 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 Libra

You often seem to find yourself in a dilemma, because you constantly weigh or decide between two options. You have a reconcilable and well-meaning spirit, so you mostly have a very good and mild influence on people (even if other most important positions show a somewhat different picture at first glance); everybody feels good in your company, because of your benevolence, sense of fairness and your need to deal with every subject by taking all sides into consideration. Although you sometimes consequently seem a bit opportunistic, you are basically just capable and ready to accept other people's views. Because of these characteristics, you do very well in life and mostly don't have major problems (unless some other very strong factor influences this).

The Part of Fortune in Virgo

You are modest in your expectations and wishes. For you, happiness is not something which will fall out of the sky, but the result of long and hard work and mostly of good methods and sensible actions, and you are prepared to make sacrifices to ensure a better tomorrow; so you definitely don't live with your head up in the clouds and you prefer building your future happiness as you go along and without the help of others, because you don't like relying on others, let alone things that are built on clouds. Small trivialities and the most everyday errands make you happy, you also find fulfillment in activities you do for others (such as caring and nurturing).

The North Node in Taurus

Because your North Node is in Taurus, your South Node is in Scorpio
You often have an enormous amount of inner strength and energy, you are passionate and you have strong emotions; you experience everything that is happening to you both on a mental and physical level and you have strong desires and needs. You need to learn to use this inner potential, to transform the sensual energy, realize it through creativity, action and physical work or realize it into tangible things.

Jupiter as culminating planet

Because Jupiter is your culminating planet, you are usually optimistic and cheerful, you often also have luck in business. You often have strong support and also the ability to do good investments. Although you are ambitious and although status and reputation are important to you, you strive for enjoyment in life. You often have several sources of income and are often successful abroad or your businesses are connected with foreign countries. You can be successful in manifold areas; in law, publishing, politics, science and others.

Venus as rising planet

Because Venus is found eastern in your personal horoscope, you usually have a warm and pleasant character and behavior, also appearance. You like pleasures, but you also have a sense of business and money and know the true value of things well and also know exactly when to act and when to rest or enjoy. Because of these positive characteristics, people like you a lot and you are appreciated in any company. You enjoy socializing and parties, you go to events and receptions and you love beautiful things. You are interested in manifold areas, among them art, fashion, cosmetics, decoration and such. You mostly have good health (unless other factors in your horoscope, which indicate differently, are much emphasized) and have lucky and comfortable childhood.

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.

Jupiter in domicile

You have truly cosmopolitan views; you are honest, funny and dynamic, you take a lot of interest in yourself, with your spiritual and personal growth, you are a good judge, you usually use your abilities well, are successful in communication, education, publishing, import or export and law, also sport.

Neptune in domicile

Neptune is one of the more distant planets, which travel more slowly and influence entire generations of people, and is thus also treated as a generational planet in personal horoscope. You belong to a generation, which strives for man's return to his primal essence and stand for withdrawal into one's inner world, you find fulfillment in solitude and self-improvement.
