What is your modality balance?



Chart Calculator http://www.astrolada.com/calculator-of-birthcharts
gives a very old visual version of the chart

  • The cardinal modality marks the beginning of the season and the power of initiation.
  • The fixed modality corresponds to the middle of the season and the power of sustaining.
  • The mutable modality represents the end of the season and the power of change.
Elements and Modalities
Fire Water Air Earth
Cardinal Aries Cancer Libra Capricorn
Fixed Leo Scorpio Aquarius Taurus
Mutable Sagittarius Pisces Gemini Virgo

I'd use http://astro.com
look at the bottom right of your chart where you have this chart:

Sign Cardinal Fixed Mutable
Sun Scorpio 1
Moon Sagittarius 1
Mercury Scorpio 1
Venus Sagittarius 1
Mars Sagittarius 1
Jupiter Cancer 1
Saturn Pisces 1

  • Cardinals moves a lot and make many changes, many beginnings.  When things are not going well, they just leave.  They are brilliant and make large changes.
  • Fixed signs do not like change, they follow through with things.  When things are not going well, they keep trying the same things, until when they give up and leave, they won't come back.  They are salt of the earth.
  • Mutable/Dual is a mixture, when things are not going well they try to fix things. They are focused on improvement. Very skillful, knowledgeable and intelligent.  Experts. May have weaker bodies.

 So, then you look to see if you have 3 or 4 planets in one predominant modality.  In my case, I have 4 mutable signs.  As she says in the video, the balanced mutable person will both start and finish things.

EXPRESSING YOUR TRUTH: Informed by Astrology

How to find Astrological Look-alikes

If you look though my astrology tab, on my other blog Expressing Your Truth, you'll find some links to celebrities by their rising sign.  The rising sign, or Ascendant, is said to be the largest influence on our appearance.  Look at the celebrities with your rising sign to see if any look like you.  http://www.librarising.com/astrology/risingsigns/ristable.html
My Rising Sign is Sagittarius

Then I list the influences of having a planet near the Ascendant, or when we say the planet is rising.

I have Moon, Mars and Venus rising.

You can also go to Astrotheme and look up celebrities by any number of criteria:
Advanced Search

For example, once you have your own chart, free from http://astro.com, you can look for celebrities with your Sun and Ascendant (AS), or Moon and Ascendant (AS).  If you want to find Ascendant, Sun and Moon, do the following:

Choose the multicriteria option:

First choose your gender, then:
  1. put in your Ascendant (AS) Rising sign
  2. check the box to add a criterion
  3. put in your Sun sign
  4. check the box to add a criterion
  5. put in your Moon sign
  6. click run
You can vary this of course.

If you have a planet rising, you may add this by choosing the name of the planet and putting it in House I.


If you list is too short, run the report again with only two of the criterion or go back to these two choices:


For example, if I run my Sun and AS (Ascendant), which is Scorpio Sun and Sagittarius Rising:
http://www.astrotheme.com/celebrities/sun/ascendant/7/8.htm
Then I scroll through the celebs until I find one that looks something like me.  Here is singer, Mauranne:


or my Moon and AS, which is double Sagittariu

The Michael Teachings: Jane's Soul and Overleaves


My Blog on Michael Teachings

The Michael System is a powerful yet easy-to-learn map of human consciousness. In the core teachings you learn about the seven major personality types, called Roles. (Seven Soul Types)

Sometimes people can tell which of the seven major Roles they are through reading some of the Michael books and then doing self-inquiry; however, if you’re like most of us, you’ll probably feel like “all” of the Roles from time to time. If there’s any question about which Role you are, you can ask a Michael trainer to do this for you, either in person or by sending him or her some photos of yourself. 

If you’d like Emily Baumbach to do your complete overleaves for you, click here for more information.

*****************************************************



The Artisan is one of the seven soul types or roles in essence. Artisans have a natural talent for creative expression, bringing to life new and original ideas.

Those undergoing the fourth stage of reincarnation are known as mature souls. At this stage, life is about embracing otherness — other perspectives, other people, other cultures, other parts of one’s own being.

Mature Artisans are drawn to use their creative expression in more meaningful ways, e.g. to understand and explore human emotions. They can be bohemian, highly inventive, perhaps avant-garde, and are often ahead of their time. Well-known examples include MichaelangeloW. A. MozartVincent van Gogh,Marilyn MonroeFrank Lloyd WrightDavid BowiePaul McCartneyYoko OnoWoody Allen,Leonardo di CaprioJohnny Depp,Kate Winslet, and of course Michael Jackson.

Body type: Mercurial 45% / Solar 30% / Venusian 25%


The higher percentage usually indicates the APPEARANCE, the second highest indicates the NATURE, and the third indicating the HEALTH

Appearance: MERCURIAL (Artisan): Named after Mercury (Hermes), in mythology the messenger god. Vulcan was the "smith" of the pantheon. This Bodytype corresponds to the Artisan Role. It is usually lean and short, as Mercury was said to be agile without being muscular. The body is energetic but is not geared for physical activity so much as for mental activity — the creation and conveyance of ideas and words. They have a low pain threshold and a tendency to hypochondria. Mercurial: witty, quick, wiry; good for lifetimes dealing with expression one on one (relates to Artisan) MERCURIAL (Mata Hari) Ideal type for Sages. Physical Characteristics: Bright, clean appearance. Usually dark. Hair and eyes often dark, but less body hair than Venusians. Classically slender and quick moving (e.g., the messenger Hermes). Skin is darker than average, and unblemished. The limbs are long, slender, and agile‑looking. The Mercurial voice is often deep or resonant. This type will retain its youthful appearance.

Nature (Character & Behavior): SOLAR (Priest): Named after the Sun (Sol, Helios). This Bodytype corresponds to the Priest Role. The body is medium to tall in height, and slight of build, perhaps even fragile in appearance. The hands and feet are also long and thin. This type is not built to withstand the rigors of physical activity, but their presence is distinctive and impressive, with a tendency to wide shoulders. The features are refined and delicate, and have a youthful appearance. The forehead is broad. Solar: bright, spirited, small and frail; good for lifetimes needing to be in the center of everything. (relates to Scholar)

Health (Gland): VENUSIAN (Sage): Named after Venus (Aphrodite), the goddess of love and fertility. This Bodytype corresponds to the Sage Role. Consequently this is a beautiful or handsome body. I don't just mean OK to look upon. I mean it is very pleasant to look upon, whether male or female. The skin is clear of blemishes, the hair is bountiful and lush, the features are attractive to the point of being distinguished, the body is well proportioned, tending to no extreme or irregularities. Venusian: soft, sensual, warm, charismatic; good for lifetimes dealing with being open, approachable, and accessible to larger groups (relates to King)


SCORPIO Mature Cycle: favorite sign of Mature souls because this cycle is a time of psychological exploration and self-awareness; capable of giving to others in intimate relationships in ways not possible before; can form satisfying love relationships; emergence of the deeper, sensitive, intuitive side of Scorpio
Artisans usually have charts strong in water and fire, the creative elements. 

Self-Deprecation: fear of Inadequacy; your not being able to live up to yours or someone else's standards, leaving you weak, insecure, and incompetent. Fear of NOT BEING ENOUGH.

Michael Teachings

Having stumbled across the Michael Teachings recently, an element that is intriguing is that there are Seven Soul Types with corresponding faces and body types.

On another blog, I wrote about the Seven Soul Types faces.  The body types are influenced by the planets.


Seven Soul Types Faces




Marilyn Monroe

VENUSIAN (Marilyn Monroe)  Works well with people and food. They are often good cooks and passionate lovers.  Physical Characteristics: Full‑bodied, voluptuous, soft, and warm. Large, often dark eyes. Hips wider than chest. Thick hair. Olive or dark skin. Wide feet and hands. Broad bones. Health generally good.

Sun:10°27' GeminiAS:13°03' Léo
Moon:19°06' AquariusMC:6°00' Taurus
She has Neptune Rising, Would ASC in Leo make her Solar at all?

NEPTUNE


These glands are associated with regeneration, inspiration, and imagination. Neptunian types tend to be dreamy, creative, and unworldly in appearance. The predominant Neptunian trait will be large, dreamy, saucer‑like eyes. This type is used for artistic creation and religious inspiration. Neptune types are remembered, and have an impact after their death.

Examples: Anna Pavlova (Solar‑Neptunian) James Dean (Martial-Neptunian), Marilyn Monroe (Venusian-Neptunian). Angelina Jolie (Lunar-Solar-Neptunian)

Marilyn has an Artisan face

Artisans tend to have heart-shaped or cup-shaped faces, together with a dreamy, unfocused, faraway look in their eyes. Where Sages have a starry twinkle in the eyes, Artisans have mysterious portals into their inner worlds.

She has Venus Rising, with ASC in Cancer
Cancer rules the Moon, explaining the Lunar.
Diana, Princess of Wales

Sun:9°40' CancerAS:18°24' Sagittarius
Moon:25°02' AquariusMC:23°03' Libra
ASC in Sagittarius, rules Jupiter which certainly was not her body type.
I don't know how a Solar body type is explained.... except that it is usually the body type of the Priest.

Diana has a Priest face...

Priests tend to have almond-shaped heads, and cat-like eyes that point forwards very directly. I’ve also noticed that the eyes can sometimes seem ‘upside-down’, with the upper lid being more open than the lower. Also with Priests, the corners of the mouth often look sharply pointed.

Margaret Thatcher

margaret thatcher - scholar / saturnine body
margaret thatcher - scholar / saturnine body
SATURNINE (Scholar, Priest or King): Named after Saturn (Chronos), the god of time and agriculture. This Bodytype corresponds to the Scholar Role. The outermost visible planet encompasses all the others, as the Scholar Role encompasses all the others. The primary distinguishing characteristic here is the bone structure. The bones are large, but the body is nevertheless tall and thin, thus emphasizing the bonyness. The hands and feet are big and gnarled. The face is long, and the head is also chiseled.

http://www.astrotheme.com/astrology/Margaret_Thatcher
Sun:19°30' LibraAS:15°16' Scorpio
Moon:28°38' LéoMC:3°51' Virgo

Margaret has Saturn Rising, which explains her being Saturnine!

She has a Scholar face

Scholars tend to look intelligent but somewhat unexpressive and socially detached. They usually have a large, flat forehead and relatively hollow, deadpan features. The mouth is naturally shut rather than open. In contrast to the Sage, the Scholar’s face looks like it isn’t used much for expressiveness.

What is Human Design?

"The Human Design System is a synthesis of two streams of science, traditional and modern. The traditional Sciences: Astrology, the Chakra system, the Kabbalah and most importantly, the I’Ching, the Book of Changes - these are the traditional elements in the synthesis that is Human Design."

Quit Smoking Using Astrology

Quit Smoking Using Astrology
Article Source


"Set your quit date, tell everyone you are quitting, stay away from smokers as much as possible and drink cranberry juice or other liquids to help to detoxify your system. Do things that don't make you think of smoking; take a walk and some get fresh air, help a non-smoker with a project or stay busy so you won't dwell on the thoughts of quitting. If you quit and relapse, quit again. 


The moon must be at an angle to Saturn that provides an easy flow of energy. We want to avoid the days that Saturn and the moon are at hard angles to one another to avoid combative energy between your emotions and your effort to quit smoking. The moon changes signs every 2 ½ days. Keep in mind that due to the changing cycles, you will not have these exact days to stop smoking next month. Some months there will be more or less dates posted...

When determining the best aspects between the Moon and Saturn, the moon should be waning. The waning moon occurs after the Full Moon. As the moon waxes or reaches its fullness our desires increase. When the moon is waning, our desires decrease. The Moon's placement in your birth chart governs your habits, your emotions and your attachments...
