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 sew." 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 Taurus

You had a history of attaining reliable resources. One of your key impulses was seeking comfort and ownership. Your soul was normally patient to reincarnate, knowing that a lifetime of work couldn't be done in a day. The archetypal theme for your destiny was to be a stabilizing force. A crucial lesson was not to get stuck. Becoming too attached to what you tasted, touched, smelled and owned kept you from expanding your growth. When you found ways to increase your wealth, it brought you great satisfaction.

There were times you were drawn into the danger lanes. A trickster was telling yourself that whatever came easy was not to be trusted. Life seemed an endless struggle. Finding a way to balance a sober outlook with seeking extreme intensity was a key to your fulfillment. Finding contentment with your desire nature regularly played a major role in your incarnations. You needed to know that you could trust someone with your deepest secrets and with your possessions. Claiming your own power in relationships and in other endeavors, shed great illumination. Betrayal by those you confided in threw you off course. Turning to your own values and resourcefulness pointed the way to wholeness. A tendency to explore life's mysteries deepened your understanding and taught you how to convert negatives into positives.

 

Node in 8th house

What types of activities did you participate in that furthered your soul growth? Delving into the mysteries of life with a detective-like presence was a preoccupation. You weren't afraid to walk along the narrow ledges, if that's where the intensity could be found. If you became too bogged down in hoarding what you saved, life had a way of disrupting your pleasure. A common concern was "how can I reach full empowerment?" When you followed your passion to achieve wealth or dynamic relationships with common sense you managed to stay out of karma's way. What sorts of experiences motivated you? There was being a shrewd businessperson. Negotiation savvy adorned you. Plumbing to the depths of your main interests came naturally. Even mysticism called to you. Your energy levels peaked when finding either the lover or profession of your most cherished dream. If you became too possessive or jealous, you created more trouble than it was worth. When you assumed the appropriate power it kept you on track as much as compulsively overpowering others caused endless trouble. Somewhere always hiding in the caverns of your memory banks was a survival instinct mixed with a tinge of a longing to keep life very simple. When using this wisely and pragmatically, life was colored with a rich array of abundant experiences.

 

Sun: Creativity, Ego, Self-expression

Sun in Virgo:

The sign of Virgo the virgin lighted the late-summer 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 Virgo is "I analyze". You showed a questioning mind. There was a theme associated with your sign that translated into a demand for perfection. It was important to learn how to turn this mechanism on and off.

Archetypes for Virgo include the editor, perfectionist and diligent one. There was an innate sense of purpose that depended heavily on established routines. This latter trait followed you from lifetime to lifetime. It proved best to carry on without getting so absorbed by the little things that "the forest got lost for the trees". Worrying didn't guarantee the job would get done any better.

The cosmic principle at work through many of your past incarnations was to rely on the steadiness of left brain logic. When you allowed your intuitive right brain equal playing time everyday life had a lively lubricant. Your mind grew dulled by the heaviness of work and responsibility when there was no leisure. You often worked circles around your contemporaries. You found ego strength when honing your skills. When you didn't let criticism curtail your ambition, an inner confidence blossomed. You came into this life solarized through a sign promoting analysis. This was a theme that ran throughout your incarnations and was a key to self-mastery. It was when you learned how to act from your heart as well as your head that you achieved the fulfillment you were seeking.

 

Sun in 4th house

You had solar power that was expressed with a lot of feeling in previous lives. Though it must be said you weren't always so quick to show your playing cards. An inclination to be secretive until really trusting that the time was right to reveal your true motives was a way of being. Your creative vitality became awakened when you saw ways to add to feelings of security. Home was godly in your opinion. You took pride in preserving the customs and beliefs that were heartfelt. Loyalty to family and ancestry was part of the package.

If there was a challenge, it was becoming too scared to show your true talent. A lack of confidence due to shyness or fear of failure was the source of this behavior. You did often outgrow being overly reserved. The hermit and silent one did live brightly through you. This isn't saying you were always a loner, only that you needed time to warm up to people. Your self-expression climbed the sky in a big way when you found the life directions that energized your inner dreams. Getting your moods in sync with your mind was a key to success. The world responded positively when you had the courage to initiate actions that were for the good of all, and not so graciously when you drew back into a reclusive shell. Getting beyond the negative memories of the past usually was a first step in the right direction. You found fulfillment in nurturing the growth of those you loved, and witnessing the birth of your most cherished plans.

 

Moon: Sense of Security, Roots, Feelings

Moon in Taurus:

You were lunarized at birth through the sign of Taurus. What does this say about your past life tendencies? An instinctual desire to find emotional stability typified many of your incarnations. The family ancestries in past lives were linked by a motivation to build reliable avenues that paved the way for a steady future. You believed in the power of money. This isn't saying you were necessarily ruled by your material desires. Only that you had a healthy respect for wealth. Business sense followed you from one life to another.

Your inner landscapes were colored by a love of serenity and beauty. Stress didn't fit into your plan. This was especially true of your home as you went out of your way to ensure its tranquility. Artistic and musical ability was shown regularly. Family members saw you as a stabilizing force.

Inertia was a challenge. More frequently when this manifested it was due to a loss of hope. A fear of losing what you owned is what got your adrenaline pumping. Sometimes you were accused of being possessive. When you fell in love with someone, it's true that you wanted it to be for keeps. When people showed they valued you, it made you feel on top of the world. Your subconscious called to you to pace yourself slowly, taking the time to enjoy the moment.

 

Moon in 8th house

You had intuitive power when it came to understanding the deeper psychological processes of people. Trust didn't come easy. You instinctually knew to be cautious around those arousing your suspicion in order to ensure your sense of security. A probing psyche allowed you to guard against letting individuals get too close, until getting to know them. When you did depend on someone too much, and got hurt in the process, the scar didn't go away quickly. You tended to process the past diligently.

There were power struggles. It wasn't easy to trust others. If you did draw close to someone, the bond did grow quite deep. Your moods were about as intense as they came. People often wondered what was going on in your head, as many of your thoughts were kept private. There was a mental toughness that separated you from the fainthearted. The downside was self-undoing through compulsive desires and a tendency to be self-destructive. The upside was equally as strong, showing a talent to master incredible creative energies, and to overcome adversity. There were strong survival instincts. An inner feeling to seek passionate and intense relationships was a repeating pattern. You preferred lovers and friends who were generous with their money and property. It encouraged you to open your heart to them. Experiences that fostered your personal empowerment and offered privacy were your favorites.

 

Ascendant: Persona, Identity, Calling Card

Sagittarius on Ascendant:

With the sign Sagittarius as your past lives ascendant, a fiery zeal for travel on the physical and mental levels colored your incarnations. You often showed a restless spirit to seek growth in all sorts of ways. Finding truths that kept setting you free was your normal way of being. Some accused you of being an aimless gypsy, while others saw you as a champion of learning. Discipline and reliability were not always so easy to understand. A happy-go-lucky persona made others think your life required little effort. Your faith usually brought you good luck. It was a positive attitude you projected that created good fortune along your life paths. Sometimes promising too much got you into trouble. An expansive nature that couldn't sit still frustrated those depending on you. You did better when not settling for any one version of truth. An eclectic nature brought out your creative best. When you accepted life's realities you usually were happier. Being an optimist took you past situations when the chips were down. The courage to walk toward greater self-understanding brought you closer to happiness than trying to escape.

 

 

The Quest

Mercury: Communication, Perceptions and Logic

Mercury in Virgo

You were Mercurialized at birth through the sign of Virgo pointing to analytical mental impulses in past lives. Your communication style was meticulous and quite objective.

Decision-making went smoothly after you sifted through all of the facts. You didn't like the gray areas. A precision-like sense guided you in seeing when something in your immediate environment was out of place. Perfection was agonizing. It wasn't easy to turn off a chatter box voice within pointing out your faults. Sometimes you turned this tendency to judge others. You were more popular when knowing how to stop critiquing yourself and those who knew you the best.

Hard working was your middle name. Work that called for detail didn't make you nervous. Forgetting to play was probably a common complaint of your lovers and family. Technical ideas showed off your ability. The world of business stimulated the competitive part of your brain that enjoyed problem solving. Your mental outlook was brighter when you didn't succumb habitually to negative thinking, and when you had opportunities to learn new skills.

 

Mercury in 4th house

Your perceptions moved reflectively, as though you were processing the past while analyzing the present. Deep emotions were often hid from others. You cautiously looked out at the world, concerned how to preserve your sense of well being. Your mind was intuitive and somewhat skeptical as to the motives of others. Family members were usually your closest allies, unless someone broke your trust. Hermit-like instincts flavored your thinking. You cherished privacy and were quite particular about where you lived. Your moods were intense and not revealed to just anyone. It was when you pulled back to the extreme from others that you became confused. Your mental power emanated from your level of inner comfort. Communication tended to be kept to a minimum unless you were extremely relaxed with someone. Social situations took a while for you to warm up to. You didn't like people invading your space.  When you ran away from challenges they snowballed. You were better off in dealing with issues directly because this empowered your mind.

 

Venus: Relationships, Values, Comfort.

Venus in Leo

With the love goddess adorning you through the sign of Leo at birth, you came from past lives where you sought after highly creative and dramatic lovers. Many people experienced you as symbolizing vitality and passion. Your social instincts were shaded with a hue of carrying yourself with great pride combined with a fierce competitive spirit.

The ideal soul mate was someone with self-confidence and a willingness to share center stage with you. You were attracted to lovers showe
