Other important points

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Paul 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 Pisces

You may think you are not very lucky in your life, but you are often really not short of anything; although it seems that you are drifting through life without a clear goal or plan, you intuitively know in which direction you have to turn in certain situation, circumstance or period and so you most often intuitively act the way that is best for you. Although you mostly look for your happiness in the spiritual side of life and you often also find it there, you are usually well off also in materialistic sense, because you have deserved this through a certain cohesive thread of all your lives.

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.

Saturn as culminating planet

Because Saturn is your culminating planet, you are someone who will definitely attain success, although this will happen late in life, because you invest all your strength into it. Success and reputation are extremely important to you, you are willing to work and to make numerous sacrifices. You understand the hierarchical scale and so respect authority, because you hope you will one day become one. You are very serious and responsible, you seem a bit strict and reserved, but you are definitely worthy of respect, even of other factors in your horoscope show a milder picture. You are successful in numerous areas, such as law, politics, army, economy, etc.

Sun as rising planet

Because the Sun is found eastern in your personal horoscope, you have quite some luck in life and you usually have good health (unless other factors in your horoscope, which indicate differently, are very emphasized). You usually have a happy childhood and enough support from your family and also from other people, because you always make a good impression, since you are pleasant and radiate a lot of positive energy; your attitude towards life is healthy and positive and that is why you are loved and appreciated in company. You do everything with enthusiasm and audacity, that is why you fulfill many of the goals and plans you set and there are not few. Already in childhood, it is useful to direct you towards sport, also towards performing and similar activities.

Mercury in domicile

You are usually skilled in businesses of Mercury; communication, commerce, writing, speech, etc. You are fast, agile, resourceful and adaptable, also devious and cunning. As a rule, you have a gift of articulation and so have good rhetorical skills, you also pass on your knowledge in a quality and interesting way. You are intelligent and funny, you like novelties and constant happening and you love travelling. You are always somehow on the road, you are interested in everything and you learn something new out of every situation, which is beneficial for you in the future.

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.

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.
