Sun 9’ Crab
Moon 25’ Aquarius
Mercury 3’ Crab
Venus 24’ Taurus
Mars 30’ Leo
Jupiter 5’ Aquarius
Saturn 27’ Capricorn
Uranus 23’ Leo
Neptune 8’ Scorpio

Princess Diana was rather careful and withdrawn at first, then she occurred to be a people's person - when she gained trust. This combination examples the Sun in Crab, Moon in Aquarius relation. 

Her sensitivity, imagination, caring and emotional attitude was balanced by strong Mars and Saturn position. She was no fool, and exactly knew what she wanted. 

Her unconventional, open-minded, tolerant and bohemian personality, with a strong humanitarian streak won her loads of friends.

A love for beauty, comfort, life pleasures (Venus in Taurus), and frustrations with men, (Mars with Uranus) gave her life of contrast.


Sun - Persona
Sun 9’ Crab
Conjunct Mercury

Sun is our overall external personality which we usually take from a father figure in our formative years. To some extent it shows our father's personality (or rather how we perceive it). It shows our vitality, areas of life-interest and how we approach life in general.  It has the most important influence on all the other planets. 

Women with Sun in Crab are somewhat reserved and remote at first glance. Very receptive, romantic and emotionally expressive. They absorb the ambience of the surrounds and can be both influential or under influence. Have deep, penetrating eyes. 

Maternal and soothing, strong protective tendencies if not possessive. Mood swings and periods of sulking. May come under bad habits with food. 

Quick to retreat into inner shells as a protective barrier. May use emotional manipulation to make things happen.

Moon - Soul
Moon 25’ Aquarius
Square Venus. Oppose Mars, Uranus.

Moon is our internal personality. Moon is connected to what we have learned from our Mother in the very early age of our childhood. Thus it is directly responsible for our programmed instinctive behaviour, care, nurture and support we need and give away, and level of intuition. It shows - to some extent - our mother's character (or how we have perceived it), how and when we feel most safe and secure, and in what areas lies our innate sense of belonging.

Aquarius Moon finds emotional security in freedom and independence. Breaks rules and boundaries in a revolutionary manner. Drawn to modernity. Bohemian and offbeat. Visionary,  progressive soul. Intuitively understands the needs of the public. Believing in teamwork. 

Friends and acquaintances come from a broad spectrum of life. Can befriend a homeless and still be mates with the aristocracy. May become extravagant, overly exuberant with merrymaking.
Mercury - Intellect
Mercury 3’ Crab
Conjunct Sun

Mercury is how our mind works and its influence is most pronounced in our late childhood years - when we start to learn and recognize things. We are surrounded by many people but most of all we are interested in our peer group or siblings. We learn from them, we are interested how the 'dynamics' of this larger community works and how we can communicate with it. Thus, Mercury shows - the early age environment, ability to learn, areas of interests, and communication skills.

The way Crab Mercury people speak has almost a therapeutic effect. Creates a reassuring atmosphere, very keen listener.

Strong mental link with family and domestic life. Spending time with family gives intellectual stimulation. However on the defensive side at times.

Can be manipulative and live in a vicious circle of suspicion.

Communications is gentle, tactful and diplomatic, yet with sense of immense, secretive power. Deep and/or dark poetic inclination, strong imagination. Love of the glamour world.

Venus - Heart
Venus 24’ Taurus
Square Mars, Uranus.

Venus is the planet of love and attraction - in broad terms - what we love, how we love, and who we love. We are quite early aware of what we are appreciative of - in things and people. It tells us about the early teenage years when we were growing up to learn about love for the first time - and how this carries out on through our life. It tells what we value in love relationships. 

Venus ease of living, life-comforts, earthy pleasures. High degree of wellbeing and affluence here. Values quality, beauty, style.

Concerned with looks and appearances, strives to look appropriate and elegant. 
Sensual, romantic, love of the good life. Need for long-term financial security. May be unreliable with money, may spend beyond means. 

Takes love seriously and with dedication. Warm, affectionate and loyal, but also somewhat possessive. Requires commitment from partner. Needs reliable, faithful partner.

Mars - Will
Mars 30’ Leo
Conjunct Uranus, Pluto. Square Venus. Oppose Moon.


We meet Mars energy in our late teen years - when we learn to be confident in our behaviour and participate in life through in action. Mars describes how we act and behave while facing the life challenges and everyday situations.

Mars practical efficiency, sense of usefulness and the virtue of self-sacrificing servitude. Desire to be of service. Wants to be appreciated by her own efforts. Excitement may not be understood.

Women with this placement attract a very picky partner. Perfectionist, over concerned with details, demanding. Complaining, over-critical nags who can be easily annoyed, irritated. 

With Uranus and Pluto it is fidgety and nervous.

Jupiter - Role
Jupiter 5’ Aquarius
Conjunct Saturn. Square Neptune.

Jupiter is a planet of our growth, expansion, encouragement, allies. In the young years we are inspired by a particular set of values or roles we imagine to play in life. When we reach maturity - the Jupiter years - we should be able to play this role - it is part of our natural calling.

Jupiter in Aquarius is about freedom of expression and tolerance. Enjoys influential positions in society, and friends who are influential, out-of-the box thinkers that shape modern society.

Unusual perspectives, belief systems, or sets of morals then those widely accepted in her own environment. Attracted to others who are in some way different from her own background.

There may be growing distance between oneself and family members and may seeks social fulfilment in any form of humanitarian pursuits or socialising with out-of-ordinary, eccentric people. Becomes part of an avantgarde establishment. Liberal views.

People who take on the responsibilities of a world citizen. Feeling responsible for everyone. Taking on the world’s concerns. Being a prominent example (Jupiter conjunct Saturn).

Goodwill ambassador.  Having a serious (Saturn) life philosophy (Jupiter).
Saturn - Lore 
Saturn 27’ Capricorn
Conjunct Jupiter. Square MC.


Saturn is a planet of Destiny.  The primal 'Lore' is what we are born with,. This is where we start our life: in what background we grow up (hardly we can choose it), and what is the main task 'to master ' in our existence.  The second 'Lore' is what we are becoming in our old age, and the 'Lore' we are eventually leave behind.  Saturn has to be always carefully considered with the Sun and Moon Sign and its aspects.

Learning how to act like an authority takes a long time. At first caution is required and following the convention. Career can be often seen like a carnival conduct. A slight bit of decadence is present. Nevertheless Saturn in Capricorn is always about position, prominence and recognition. 

Well-behaved. Brought up in a reputable, prosperous or traditional background.  Working in a family firm. Ancestry and heritage are important. There is a disciplined environment, a sort of deprivation. 

Long term goals and specific plans. Solitude. Perseverance. Fulfilling destiny.  Master of situations and circumstances. Expert. Assuming responsibility. Career and status are of high importance. Persistence to succeed. Steadfast success. Personal sacrifices in order to achieve goals. 

Overly strict or domineering parent, husband. Strict, formal, conventional parents who expect correct behaviour. As a child serious, steady and hard at work. Inner authoritative voice. 

Dark sense of humour. Melancholy, suffering, some drama in life, laugh through tears. Longing, yearning.



Uranus - Neptune - Pluto
Generational Planets

Generational planets give us a social and historical background. They stay in one Zodiac Sign for several years, shaping the views, opinions and general vibe of a generation. They have less personal influence but if they are engaged in primary aspects, they have an impact on our psyche. 


Uranus 23’ Leo, Neptune 8’ Scorpio, Pluto 6’ Virgo

Expressing oneself in a dream-like, glamorous, mystique way. Hidden secrets and mysteries surrounding domestic life. Unaware of own and others shortcoming, too trustful, naive. Difficulties absorbing knowledge as is often not 'here and now', drifting away in imaginative world. Lounging around and being idle.
