Introduction
Welcome to your Past Life report. Whereas the birthchart is a symbolic road map describing your current life, the Past Lives chart is a blueprint of your previous incarnations. The pages that follow will help shed some light on themes related to your past life instincts. First, let's talk about reincarnation which is the belief that the current incarnation (as depicted by our birthchart) is linked to the lives that we have previously led. This collection of past influences points to particular experiences you might encounter again so that you can further your growth and fully develop your creative potential. These past impressions go far in shaping many of our current thoughts and choices. There are certain gifts a person seems to possess right out of the womb! It's as though destiny or fate leads one to realize these attributes. Of course, we still have to show ambition and make the effort in order to keep our dreams alive. This report may give confirmation to talents that you already know you have or open your eyes to ones that you have yet to discover.
Our past lives are alive and well in our consciousness. This may already be apparent to you. But on the other hand, these experiences can lie beyond the threshold of our conscious mind's awareness. What is doing the remembering, if our mind isn't? Call it your soul, higher consciousness or whatever explanation feels right to you.
Have you ever heard about karma, that great law of cause and effect? An old timeless saying sums up the whole process: "You reap what you sow." There are actions and thoughts that defined us in other lives, or have guided us to where we are in the present. They don't really exert any control over us. We have freedom of choice. That's a strong message to remember when reading this report.
Also, don't panic if you read something that says you were not a perfect person. Nobody is in the current one! Use the report as a learning tool. The idea is to keep developing and evolving. It's balancing the cosmic rhythm of past and present that presents each of us with a challenge. Do we respond positively or negatively? With hope or doubt? Many of our tendencies are linked to previous incarnations. Certain patterns have likely been by our side over many lifetimes. As we grow and expand our awareness, it becomes very possible to step beyond the trappings of past life baggage.
No doubt you will read various sections that seem to contradict each other. Each could be true about you. It's important to realize that many different dimensions of ourselves live within us. Each of us is composed of memories from so many past lives, combined with an assortment of ways we have learned to deal with reality in this life, that make us complex beings. See which descriptions ring true to you as you read through the following pages. You will notice some traits described have a repeating theme.
I hope you find this report an enjoyable ride into your past life instincts and thought patterns. They are somewhere in your consciousness. Perhaps some of what you read will strike a familiar chord. After all, these pages are all about your past life loves, creative pursuits,


 

 

adventures, travels, highs and lows, over many lifetimes. Happy navigating!
The Past Life Chart Structure
Some technical explanations about the Past Life chart (if you detest technical discussions, then skip this paragraph and jump right into the report!). The Ascendant in this chart starts with the sign on the cusp of the 12th house, instead of the traditional method of using the sign on the 1st house cusp, which is the sign rising on the eastern horizon at the time of birth. Also, the Past Life birthchart houses are counted clockwise, rather than the conventional way of counterclockwise. In other words, since the 12th house becomes the Ascendant, the sign on the cusp of the 11th house now begins the 2nd house, etc., around the chart wheel. What is considered the Ascendant or 1st house in the traditional chart becomes the 12th in the Past Life chart. Your planets remain in the same sign placements, but now occupy different houses, in this new chart. The planets in signs are interpreted in your report from a past lives perspective. Something interesting to consider in thinking of the houses in a clockwise direction, they are actually now moving in the same direction as the Nodes of the Moon. As you will read in the report the Moon's nodes are strong past life or karmic points in a chart. Their retrograde motion is clockwise meaning they share the same life biorhythms as the houses of the Past Life chart. By traveling backward, or clockwise, through the houses, you are being regressed back into a past life analysis. Enjoy your ride down memory filled lanes!


 

 

The Passport
In this section are the first, middle and last names of your Past Lives astrological identity, the Sun, Moon, and Past Lives Ascendant. Each of these three building blocks will be discussed as to how they actively shaped many of your former lives. But before you meet these three key players, you will start your tour through memory lane with the North Node of the Moon. The North Node contains a special message about what was your overall life purpose. It was a constant rhythm pulsating in your consciousness to keep you on target toward your true purposes. It was a celestial compass trying to guide you to walk your talk with greater clarity. So sit back, and enjoy reading your past lives primer.
Node in Capricorn
You had a history of taking the roles you assumed quite seriously. One of your key impulses was determining what was worth your time and commitment. Your soul was normally quite sober about reincarnating knowing the work ahead would take great determination. The archetypal theme for your destiny was to be a leader. A crucial lesson was to remember to delegate. You usually attracted responsibility easily so needed to be careful in not trying to do everything yourself. Being more inclusive took a load off of your shoulders.
If you grew too dependent on others, you had just as many problems. Then again, when you made the time for closeness, you were more fulfilled. A trickster was in becoming your own emotional island, hidden away from others. Usually this led to loneliness and feeling empty, no matter how great the outer success. Finding a way to balance the drive to climb the career ladder with having a happy home was a key to the city of happiness. Another way to say this was staying clear about self-reliance and showing you needed someone. You eventually valued a home as a sanctuary. Becoming recognized for accomplishments was a big deal. You grew through meeting individuals that encouraged you to go beyond your fears and letting them really get to know you. Also, it was when you encountered a job that challenged your inner strength that a little voice within tried to guide you with reassurance to the finish line.
Node in 3rd house
What types of activities did you participate in that furthered your soul growth? It most definitely was anything or anyone that stimulated your mind. If you got too scattered there was a bit of frustration in trying to concentrate. A common concern was "how can I reach the depths of my learning ability?" When you took the time to seek expansive enough life interests, you managed to stay out of karma's way. What sorts of experiences motivated you? A big one was communication! Following right behind it was an insatiable drive to be educated, whether traditionally or unconventionally. Being a net-worker or broadcaster of a message was another theme. Your energy levels peaked when finding a diversified lifestyle that constantly breathed in refreshing new information. Growing too one-dimensional is what deflated the air out of your balloon. Keeping your eyes on a broad perspective with an eclectic panache is what brought out a free-spiritedness. When you sought to share your knowledge openly this kept you on track as

 

 

much as embracing a too narrow belief system was derailing. Somewhere always hiding in the caverns of your memory banks were highly perceptive instincts mixed with a tinge of not really wanting to be limited by reality. When using this wisely and insightfully, life was colored with great variety, never stopping long enough to be bored.
Sun: Creativity, Ego, Self-expression
Sun in Gemini:
The sign of Gemini the twins lighted the late-spring astrological skies at your birth into this life. Let's explore what significance this had in regard to your past lives. In traditional astrology the keyword phrase for Gemini is "I think". Another being "I perceive". You had a pattern that placed a great emphasis on being free to speak your ideas. Your mind worked fast in previous incarnations.
Archetypes for Gemini include the teacher, advisor and writer. Notice the emphasis on communication. Speaking and learning were next to godliness. You traveled to the Four Corners of the earth to satisfy an undying thirst for knowledge. You found power in being the first to discover a new vein of information. You not only brought and reported the news, on numerous occasions you were the news!
The cosmic principle at work through many of your incarnations was to restlessly express your intellect. You enjoyed a flexible nature that spontaneously moved north, south, east or west when the spirit moved you. Being told there was one way of doing something got you upset. You found ego strength through allowing your perceptions to guide you to those paths filled with excitement and fresh air. A loss of inspiration was what you feared the most. Without this, you couldn't move, like a bird trying to fly without wings. You were meant to soar high above the crowd to let everyone else know what was before them. You came into this life solarized through a sign promoting unique perception. This was a theme that ran throughout your incarnations and held the key to self-mastery. It was when you trusted your capacity to figure your way out of any dilemma that this energy was operating at its optimum beauty.
Sun in 10th house
You had solar power plus, pouring into your professional and leadership roles in past lives. Attracting responsibility was a strong pattern. Defining yourself clearly was an innate drive. Working with the public occurred often. Your creative vitality became energized when your ability was recognized. A steady and persistent effort took you far. You had a fine reputation for being committed to doing a good job. Pride in taking on difficult challenges was shown. Being a good manager of time came in handy.
If there was a challenge it was being a workaholic and becoming too controlling. You weren't the best at delegating. People loving you wished you made the same time for them you made for work. Also, you could become very demanding. When you learned how to more tactfully ask for what you needed, you got better results. Learning how to play was good for your health and relationships. The leader and entrepreneur shined brightly through you. People commonly referred to you as a take charge type. Getting too attached to success and failure was a trap. You suffered depressions when you had severe setbacks. The embarrassment of losing

 

 

was too much to handle. You had to find the strength to move forward and see all was not necessarily lost. Adaptability and flexibility helped. Your self-expression was very focused. A pragmatic mind-set guided you to mostly bet on sure things. You found fulfillment through celebrating time-tested commitments.
Moon: Sense of Security, Roots, Feelings
Moon in Capricorn:
You were lunarized at birth through the sign of Capricorn. What does this say about your past life tendencies? An instinctual desire to trust the safety of structure as a means to success followed you from one incarnation to another. The family ancestries in past lives were linked by a serious acceptance of responsibility and ambitious drives.
Your inner landscapes were colored by a hard-working nature. Fear was the stumbling block that got in your way. When you conquered self-doubt just enough to break free, you found your true paths. You could be quite reserved, even shy, until getting to know someone. It's possible that you felt younger as you became older! You were a reliable sort. Some may have found you a little strict. The less control you exhibited, the closer loved ones came to you. You enjoyed solitude as the atmosphere spoke to your soul. You rose into leadership positions because people trusted you. You reached the top of a profession through steady patience. Delayed gratification was not that hard for you. Being too conservative when it came to taking a risk did cost you an opportunity or two. Depression was a challenge. It was important that you didn't make your work your whole life. Another strong theme was leadership. Your subconscious called to you to stay clear of becoming rigid, and let the voice of your intuition speak as loudly as your pragmatic side.
Moon in 4th house
You had intuitive power when it came to survival in past lives. A sixth sense for knowing how to preserve your sense of well being was highly developed. You instinctually knew how to time a change so that it would give you a greater sense of security. It wasn't that you relished giving up what you had, especially if you liked your lifestyle, only that you wanted to be ready to ride out any potential upheavals. Part of you always feared the worst in order to be able to accept the harshest reality. Family concerns played a major role. First and foremost, you loved feeling needed! Being a caretaker or nurturer was a role in which you were often cast. Home was something you treated as sacred ground. You had territorial needs that had to be respected by others. Your loyalty to those you loved was a stabilizing factor. Your moods were a barometer of your feelings. Turbulent emotions could find you vacillating from smiles to frowns quickly. An inner feeling to break free from the expectations of those from your past did surface occasionally. Dealing with controlling authority figures was usually when this tendency was the strongest. You repeatedly lived in locations offering comfort, safety and by all means, privacy.
Ascendant: Persona, Identity, Calling Card


 

 

Pisces on Ascendant:
With the sign Pisces as your past lives Ascendant, a strong idealistic spirit colored your past incarnations. Your intuitive side ranged from being highly refined to being fogged by emotional confusion. You were at your best when listening to that inner voice that knew right from wrong, the truth from untruth. Guilt was a problem. It drove you to extreme escapism. You had a pattern of feeling things very personally. Extreme sensitivity produced great creative energies but did find you emotionally unpredictable. Knowing your boundaries was essential. The love you sought to find had to stay realistic. When you realized there were no perfect people, life became more relaxed and grounded. You wore many different masks. Finding the people that accepted you the way you were made you very happy. You gazed out at the world through rose-colored glasses, sometimes finding only fantasy, but at other times connecting with wonderful realities. A vivid imagination adorned many of your lives. You were attached to your ideals. At times they even caused you discontent. But in the end they defined you!

The Quest
Mercury: Communication, Perceptions and Logic
Mercury in Cancer
You were Mercurialized at birth through the sign of Cancer pointing to security-oriented mental impulses in past lives. Being emotional, and at times secretive, was your communication style.
You exercised patience in listening to others. However, if you sensed a change was needed to secure your lifestyle, you did move fast and furious. You initiated actions when your brain sent signals that it was time to put a plan to work. You were careful about how your home was organized. This was one place you needed order to ensure peace of mind.
Family was valued. You showed great loyalty to those you loved. Moods occasionally disrupted your thinking. You found power in overcoming past wounds and disappointments. Your nurturing side caused people to depend on you. It was important that you knew when to draw the line as far as letting others fend for themselves. Your mental outlook in previous incarnations was brighter when you perceived how to find the intimacy you desired, and when you became comfortable with your introspective nature.
Mercury in 9th house
Your perceptions moved expansively, snowballing, as you became more excited about the future. Life was a series of adventures in your perspective. You eagerly looked out at the world, in search of new terrain to travel. Your mind was restless and full of senseless wonder. A student of life your were. Teaching what you knew became a favorite pastime. Education helped fulfill many of your dreams. Foreign places and people stimulated you to think in bigger ways. You grew tired of routines quickly. People didn't admire a tendency in you to lack concentration. Communication excited you. Sharing ideas with others got you to think more creatively. Your beliefs were strong. When not so dogmatic people liked you more. You were not one to usually lose sleep over the details. You had a nose for the big things and had a great sense of direction. Though you did need to watch out for becoming too scattered and overconfident. Situations better be growth promoting if they wanted you to stay. Maintaining a positive attitude was a must.
Venus: Relationships, Values, Comfort.
Venus in Cancer
With the love goddess adorning you through the sign of Cancer at birth, you came from past lives where you desired emotionally fulfilling relationships. Many people perceived you as symbolizing inner strength. You had a quiet intensity featuring intuitive power. Your social instincts were shaded with a hue of proceeding cautiously and with a tendency to protect your privacy. Spending time alone refueled your energy levels.

The ideal soul mate was someone not bothered by your moods and with a similar need to establish a strong home base. You were attracted to lovers that showed they really cared and could at least express a little feeling. When you became comfortable with a person, you expressed yourself quite openly. You tended to be loyal to loved ones. When you didn't trust a person, you pulled faraway. Betrayal was an area you didn't tolerate. You didn't want to be possessed by anyone. You needed to be careful, your dependency needs stayed balanced. Home was something you valued immensely. Your romantic fulfillment depended greatly on being true to your need for intimacy and being sure to make time for self-exploration no matter the demand for your attention.
Venus in 9th house
You were adventurous when interacting socially, never really feeling you had met a stranger. There was a sense of wonder about you, causing people to think you a dreamer. You did venture beyond safe home borders to test the waters of the unknown. You were a positive force in relationships, igniting others to act on faith. Outgoing sorts attracted you as much as your friendly style brought them to you. Meeting lovers or friends through travel occurred often. Foreign lands called strongly to you. In a way you felt like a citizen that didn't really belong to one nationality or region of the world. When you found allegiance to a belief system, you professed its rights and rituals openly.
Some accused you of not following through on your promises, while you explained this as being distracted by so many roads in front of you. Your peers experienced you to be idealistic and fun. They themselves usually were spontaneous in their own right if they had hopes of keeping up with you. Friends usually had a similar philosophical outlook or at least could tolerate the differences. Delayed gratification wasn't your first impulse. You needed to watch out for investing heavily on get rich schemes, sometimes winning, sometimes losing. You could be generous to a fault. A balanced perspective regarding limits had to be learned. You were attached to freedom. When individuals acknowledged your need to roam you felt valued. Helping those you loved achieve greater self-confidence meant a lot to you.
Mars: Assertion, Courage, Identity
Mars in Capricorn
What would a warrior planet in the earthy sign of Capricorn mean regarding past lives? You were scared to lack ambition, which found you making yourself take on new challenges. Fear of failure was a battle. However, you had a strong follow through when you were finally convinced that you had the right stuff to do the job. Your initiating impulse was to look first and make sure you wouldn't be rushing into a mistake. However, you could become a type "A" personality when you found the avenues that excited you. A competitive streak came alive when seeing a clear path to success. You were willing to fight adversaries to outdo them in the professional arena. You did display a reserved nature. When you let go once in a while to spontaneity, lovers and friends were delighted. Being rigid made you seem cold to others. Your warmth came across when relaxing into experiences.
Your identity was very tied to the roles you chose. Career and work were taken too

seriously. You fought with authority figures when not respecting their judgment. As a leader you could be quite demanding. Anger presented you with a dilemma. It made you feel like you were losing control to show your displeasure openly and passionately. Yet you felt better when letting out your true feelings. Relationships took less out of you when you talked directly and with a listening ear. When you moved with openness to new options and with flexibility, you were a happier soul.
Mars in 3rd house
You took initiative when it came to learning the shortest way to get something accomplished. Your adrenaline started pumping when you got the chance to discuss your favorite subjects. A competitive side was exhibited when your ideas were challenged. Fighting to defend a position was a repeating theme. You weren't going to back down easily from an argument. What made you become territorial? When people thought they could dictate what your options would be. This was like putting a match to gasoline. Education and travel excited you as long as they fit into what you viewed as interesting. Your words had a fiery way in capturing the attention of others.
Impatience in listening did make it difficult to communicate with those closest to you. Pushing your views didn't always make for popularity. Your courage to put your thoughts openly on the table for all to see was a motivating force. Assertiveness was a greater impulse when you felt intense about an issue near and dear to you. Anger was displayed when you perceived that someone was not paying attention to you. Though you didn't like getting angry because it made you nervous.
Jupiter: Knowledge, Expansion, Philosophy, Travel
Jupiter in Cancer
Having Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, in the sign of Cancer indicates you were enthusiastic about moving to other locations and eventually settling into a family life. Much of the knowledge you gained was through everyday exchanges with people. You were an intuitive type. A quiet listener was more your style, that is, until you blossomed into a tower of mental strength. You chose to expand your potential through sometimes moving to more opportunistic regions or in finding the right allies that would support your needs. A positive attitude you found quite beneficial when you were searching for clarity in determining your future goals. Luck came through when you weren't afraid of change. Showing the confidence to move ahead with choices attracted the right people and resources. Travel was a way to process the past and to find the inspiration to climb over obstacles in your path. A nomadic ancestry was linked to many of your incarnations. When maintaining a broad perspective you developed the eyes to see a bigger picture unfolding in front of you, one that could contain your own aspirations along with those of your loved ones. If you didn't change course too quickly, life was more rewarding. Jupiter in 9th house
A positive and enterprising outlook influenced you to seek expansive truths that kept the door open to a never-ending search for adventure. All roads led to Rome was a mantra. You Copyright 2003 Matrix Software - Not for Resale

 

 

tended to bite off more than you could chew. Promising too much in the form of overconfidence occurred. The urge to see life from various perspectives caused you to delay in concentrating on any one path. Spontaneity was a life force in your eyes. You had definite opinions about right and wrong. You were likeable when not judgmental. Writing and speaking were powerful tools in your hands. Preaching what you believed either won you approval or met with considerable resistance by those disagreeing. Travel for pleasure or learning, were equally enjoyed. You liked becoming intoxicated by the people and scenery of distant places. People became energized by your innocent enthusiasm. You feared growing old in mind, more than you worried about the physical. Luck smiled favorably upon you when you were willing to act on your beliefs. Good fortune came through not blindly following in other's footsteps, and in not losing sight of the trees by concentrating too much on the forest.

The Journey
Saturn: Ambition, Seriousness, Focus, Responsibility
Saturn in Scorpio
Ambition came through you powerfully, says your past lives history, with Saturn placed in the intense sign of Scorpio. This was in reality true after you thoroughly investigated the various potentials you possessed. Discipline was the natural outcome in being willing to make a commitment to whatever you were trying to master. Summoning the strength from within sometimes miraculously occurred when you needed it the most. Your greatest fear was failing to be a success. When you became clear this was mostly due to your worry over disappointing others, you found a renewed sense of freedom. In other words, your fear lessened because you chose to pursue your own dreams.
A karmic shadow was to either utilize extreme force to get your own way, or to run completely away from your power. A clear sense of empowerment brought an incredible rebirth and fulfillment. You often defined yourself through professions that allowed you to reach self-mastery, and as someone unwilling to retreat from a challenge.
Saturn in 6th house
What was your main focus? There were a few! They were diet, health, and work. You had to develop discipline in these areas. You consistently asked at crucial points during an incarnation: how can I become more efficient? Being organized gave you a sense of control. Rigidity related to being too critical of self, or others, sometimes produced karmic woes. The antidote was greater flexibility in this area, that is, when you were determined not to repeat the same old lessons needing to be learned. You could have delegated better. If not overly picky, people liked you more. Dead-end jobs dulled your mind. Service-oriented occupations tended to bring out your best. You were skillful in being detailed.
A shadow was self-doubt. It sometimes caused you depression. Clear definition in how to solve problems was what you liked. You had to pace yourself to avoid burnout. Also, taking yourself less seriously proved valuable. A major redefining regularly occurred during lifetimes associated with a positive attitude. Seeing the cup as half full rather than half empty helped. Wisdom came through knowing what truly could be changed and what was best left alone.
Uranus: Individuality, Goals, Uniqueness, Freedom
Uranus in Cancer
You had a tendency to react emotionally about future goals, indicates having Uranus in the sign Cancer. Your mind did switch to fast forward when you sensed how to preserve your sense of security. Emotional roller coaster rides are what bothered you the most. Sometimes you purposely disrupted your own comfort zones just for the heck of it. Then again, you enjoyed a home providing peace of mind.
Inventiveness found roots in your intuition. You found that new ideas came when you had
Copyright 2003 Matrix Software - Not for Resale

 

 

time for private contemplation. It was important where you lived. You launched refreshing perceptions when living in a locale rightly aligned with your intellect. Maintaining a sense of direction allowed you to feel inwardly safe, and outwardly confident that you were a step away from greeting the excitement of new potentials.
Uranus in 9th house
In what way were you unconventional? It was in the area of your highest beliefs. Your mind didn't care for limits, which got you into trouble now and then. You had futuristic vision when it came to sensing opportunities in greener pastures that allowed you to reinvent yourself. Restlessness needed to be channeled productively. Your goals were many and quite elaborate. The challenge was in knowing which to follow and when. A sense of direction changed as often as an unpredictable tornado, aligning itself with whatever was currently running through your mind. Your interests were numerous and eventually you tried to narrow the field. You were eclectic for the most part. Argumentative as well. Freedom was defined by you as spontaneity. You didn't like your ideas to be questioned. You tended to rebel against limited minds and against those trying to impede your personal progress. Your ideals were sacred possessions that you didn't like infringed upon. You didn't like to look back at the past as it interfered with your momentum. You didn't find compromise something that came easily. Also, you fought the thinking of someone else if it wasn't congruent with your own. You sometimes became judgmental or preachy if you thought your own truths better than that of everyone else. You were inventive when developing an expansive plan that gave you a chance to incorporate all of your ability.
Neptune: Idealism, Romanticism, Intuition, Dreams, Escapism Neptune in Libra
You believed in ideals that symbolized fairness and justice for all. Your idealism was awakened through the individuals believing in you, and the ones you admired. Talents in the arts were shown in several lives. You liked individuals possessing diplomacy and tact. Stress annoyed you if lasting too long. Denying there was any problems never resolved anything. Romance was a great calling. Love was almost a religion. You liked exotic partners and those willing to move quickly in an atmosphere of celebration. Falling in love with a lack of reality testing was not in your best interest.
A major challenge was in defining the boundaries between you and others. Guilt made you feel too responsible for a person's troubles. Wearing rose colored glasses painted false first impressions of individuals, letting you see what only you chose to perceive. There were times when you could see right into the soul of someone. When you were honest with yourself, you gravitated to the right peers and lovers. You wanted from the deepest part of your soul to get opportunities to express your gifts and to find a special someone that recognized the true you. You found transcendental growth through not trying to overly please others, and by having the faith to proceed ahead with your most determined effort.
Neptune in 6th house

In what way were you extra intuitive? It was in regard to learning new skills and self-improvement in general. You had high standards about efficiency, but didn't always have clearly defined paths for getting organized. You became mesmerized when watching others excel in what you desired to learn. The healing arts held a special place in your heart, as did a devotional life. Diet and health became special interests in some lives. Your idealism inspired you to follow certain causes.
A test was learning how to select what was worth your sacrifice of time, energy and at times wealth. The boundary between common sense and wearing "strawberry fields" colored glasses was not usually very thick. Rolling up your sleeves to take on a difficult project came when feeling the inspiration of your beliefs. Your spirituality kept you mentally centered and strong. What was the biggest challenge? Without a doubt, perfection! It plagued you when trying to defy reasonable expectations. You were happier if not expecting the impossible. You were driven to escapism if not modifying your standards. Faith transformed your denial of reality into a more balanced expression. You searched for a purpose that helped you walk without guilt, and strengthened your resolve to accept life's ups and downs.
Pluto: Personal Power, Self-mastery, Rebirth, Loss, Passion
Pluto in Leo
Empowering yourself through creative risk-taking was a past lives tendency. A strong drive to make your plans ring true was forever pulsating through you. Finding pride through giving birth to ideas was a regular pattern. Cheering and promoting emanated from you loudly. You shined brightly with charisma when your accomplishments were recognized. Your enthusiasm often swept people into believing in you. Growing too attached to what you loved was an occasional downfall. Maintaining some objective distance from lovers and your creations made you easier to like.
There was a shadow. What was it? A fear of losing. When your skin toughened up enough to at least accept a small dose of rejection, you didn't suffer as much. You could fight endlessly to make others accept your proposals and deals. In the end, you had to decide which battles to wage. In some incarnations you actually lacked the confidence to be successful. Therefore, in this latter case you had to find ways to allow the talent to develop. Self-mastery was discovered through allowing authentic self-expression beam brightly from you. You found rebirth or a sense of renewal when listening to your heart, rather than the fear of your self-doubt.
Pluto in 8th house
How did you go about seeking personal empowerment? It was through knowing whom you could trust. This was a testy subject for you. Usually, you had only one true confidante in a lifetime. A renewed sense of purpose was discovered through achieving self-mastery. It was often a surprise for you to find you had untapped talent. The people you met awakened your creative power. Your survival skills instinctually became activated when you were a victim of betrayal. Forgiving others was difficult after they abused your trust. Your relationships did at times find you attracted to intense individuals that weren't exactly stabilizing. In any event, you often grew stronger after dealing with a crisis. A powerful self-examination manifested itself Copyright 2003 Matrix Software - Not for Resale

 

 

following emotional upheavals. Losing what you were attached to was quite painful. When you found a way to successfully grieve through the past, a new life awaited. A compulsive tendency to fear losing everything you owned got you to ask thought-provoking questions. A shadow frequently followed you into incarnations, an obsessive fixation on loss or death. You relaxed more into confident roles when you channeled this thought power into meaningful action. Copyright 2003 Matrix Software - Not for Resale

 

 

Footnotes
You have already been introduced to the ten planets. Certain planetary pairs in your chart have a special relationship to one another due to particular angular distances separating them, known as aspects. You could say the two planets in an aspect travel and interact together along the same circuit. The following aspects will be listed under five types. Two are known as the soft aspects: the sextile (60 degrees) and trine (120 degrees). These two aspects generally point to more gentle themes, and therefore will describe past life trends that went very well for you. They indicate a lower voltage of electricity and produced less friction in your mind and through your actions. The planets involved in a trine or sextile are more likely to talk about areas where you flowed without much effort.
The more hard or intense aspects are the conjunction (0 degrees), square (90 degrees) and opposition (180 degrees). They required your best understanding in past lives. Planets that are part of an intense aspect you will notice often indicate lessons that must be learned, and follow us from one incarnation into another until we get them in balance. These higher voltage aspects don't mean the planets operated negatively, only that there was much more force behind them. "Soft" does not mean good and "intense" does not imply bad. It is often the more intense aspects that deepen our soul growth, that is, if we learn how to use their power wisely. If we don't it's like taking one step forward and three back.
It might be helpful to keep some keywords in mind for the aspects. The sextile represents Excitation and Eagerness. The planets in this aspect give clues as to how their energies worked in a stimulating way through you. The trine is a special Harmony. The two planets involved show you were confident of their interacting energies. The conjunction is where two planets are joined at the hip. There is a Fusion or powerful blending of these energies. The square can reveal where you encountered Friction. Pay special attention to these aspects in particular because they denote themes that are strong past patterns.
