A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Heidi 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 Virgo

You are usually a very rational, extremely intelligent and resourceful person. You think very quickly and you also have a perspicacious nature, but it also happens, that you lose your thread, because you focus too much to individual parts in the mosaic. You have an analytical and exploring spirit and a natural need for order, storing and arranging everything; it brings you peace and satisfaction and also puts things in the right place. You start important projects by first thinking them through in your head, you do everything attentively and meticulously. You have a good attitude towards health, you take a lot of interest in yourself; your attitude towards yourself, your thoughts, views and actions are pure and often ascetic.

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 Capricorn

Because your North Node is in Capricorn, your South Node is in Cancer
You are usually a sensitive, vulnerable and reserved person and you don't have much self-confidence. You like hiding and you quickly hide in your shell where you often process what you experienced and felt with pessimism. You need to nurture your firmness and self-confidence and also need to learn how to 'have a thick skin', rise from your emotional depths and direct your rich inner potentials towards fulfilling goals.

Sun as culminating planet

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.
