Other important points
1 August 1936, 19:45, Oran, Algeria
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Yves 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 Leo
In your life, you take good care of yourself; you always instinctively choose the best opportunity and direct all your energy into fulfilling it. You are a hearty person and also have sense of fellow man; so despite wanting to have the best for yourself, you also want the same for other people, of course only in case you have already taken good care of yourself first. You know how to stand up for yourself, you always get something positive out of events and situations. In your essence, you are a simple person, your happiness in life is directly connected to traditional values.
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.
