Louis Braille’s birth chart
Other important points
4 January 1809, 04:00, Coupvray, France
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Louis 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 Aries
You have an audacious and pioneer, yet also competitive and combatative spirit and a lot of thought energy. You are usually too slapdash and too introverted to be very perspicacious. You perceive the truth instinctively, but often infallibly. You have a healthy way of thinking and such is also your attitude towards life and the world. You don't worry too much about things and this is also part of your self-preservation instinct. Because you are positively oriented, you get something good out of every situation and because of such position, you make decisions in life easier and faster (also if other factors of your horoscope contradict this).
The Part of Fortune in Gemini
With Part of Fortune in such position, you mostly do pretty well in life, you find and achieve happiness and satisfaction through everyday conversations, shorter paths and smaller errands. Consequently you always run into numerous opportunities and also into good or right connections. Because of your gift for communication, talent for commerce and because of the experiences you gain in this area, you notice good opportunities at once. These will be so numerous that it might happen, that instead of working in one business you work in three, but it is not necessary that more business will also bring you more profit.
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.
Mars as culminating planet
Because Mars is your culminating planet, you have a strong will and a lot of work energy and drive. You are a natural warrior and leader and although you are not always the most tactful person, people follow you because of your enthusiasm, life strength and energy, which you usually radiate. Whatever you do, you do with enthusiasm. You are often successful in politics, army, also sport. With your direct approach, competitiveness and combativeness, you get on people's nerves and often meet people who put a spoke in your wheel.
Saturn as rising planet
Because Saturn is found eastern in your personal horoscope, you are serious, realistic, reserved and calm from an early age, and mostly wise and mature. You are interested in manifold areas and you have a studious viewpoint on everything. In life, you are often self-taught, in general supporter of independence; most probably you take care of yourself from an early age, because this makes you feel good or certain circumstances in your childhood demanded this from you. In childhood, you often have weak health or you have certain health issues in this period, which are perhaps connected to bones or joints, also eyesight. Sometimes such position indicates that your mother had difficulties during pregnancy or that delivery was hard or that there were certain problems immediately after birth. However, with years and through development, these problems subside.
