Virgo

Capricorn is a Cardinal Earth sign. It is the sign of careful, calculated, planned action. Cancer is like pure water which dissolves and expands. Capricorn is like a saturated solution from which crystals form. Capricorn is the organizer of the zodiac. Without it, the Universe would fall to pieces. The location of Capricorn in your horoscope shows where you tend to be efficient, organized, careful, and ambitious.
The sign of Capricorn will put any planet it gets its hands on to work. This is the sign of organization, ambition, and discipline, after all. It indicates the control you have in your life or restrictions. It is where you are denied things unless you earn them. Saturn it's ruler also indicates wisdom gained through experience.

1. The Moon in Capricorn: The Moon shows our emotions and Capricorn is the sign of cold efficiency. Actually, the Moon here can be just as emotional as anywhere else. It just doesn’t want to show it. Capricorn builds walls. It is also the sign of ambition and organization. There is a long list of famous people with the Moon in this supposedly "weak" position. There is an emotional need to be organized and get the job done. Of course, in the process, those irritating things called "emotions" tend to get pushed aside.
2. Mercury in Capricorn: according to the late Grant Lewi "can hear grass grow, feel the difference in thickness between two hairs, and smell garlic a block off, against the wind."
3. Venus in Capricorn: in a man’s chart would probably propose marriage by saying: "How would you like to be buried with my people?"
4. Mars in Capricorn: is great for the energy. This placement gives the ability to pace oneself so that you can keep going long after everyone else drops from exhaustion.
5. Jupiter in Capricorn: can be very good for business, even though Capricorn is a sign of contraction and Jupiter is the planet of expansion. People with this placement can make a big deal out of small matters. They can save pennies and yet spend large amounts with ease.
6. Saturn in Capricorn: feels safe and secure when it is in control of everything in its immediate environment.
7. Uranus in Capricorn: is not bad. The genius of Uranus is put to work doing big things. The generation that made the Victorian era was born in the 1820’s when Uranus and Neptune (the dreams, ideals, and illusions of our age) were both here, and despite its reputation as being stuffy, the Victorian age was one of great material progress. These two planets were together again recently, in the early 1990’s, so we can look forward to another Victorian age when they grow up.
8. Neptune in Capricorn: just happened from 1984 to 1998. It tends to give a very practical imagination focused on this world that we see before us.
9. Pluto in Capricorn: happened last time in the 1760’s and 1770’s. Pluto is death and rebirth. When it was in Capricorn, sign of organization and of organizations, the sign of authority, there was the first truly successful revolt against an empire. The American Revolution. Those born with this placement included the people who made the French Revolution, as well as one who established a new authority, Napoleon. He was the first modern dictator, extending state authority further than ever before.

Capricorn is the Natural ruler of the tenth house. This house indicates one’s career tendencies, public image as opposed to private image, the parent of greater influence usually the mother, and people who may have power or authority over you bosses, judges, etc. Planets in this house affect the career. So does the SIGN at the beginning (the cusp) of the house, as well as the RULING PLANET of that sign.

Sun in the Tenth House: Wherever the Sun is we crave attention. When it is in the tenth house, we need to shine in public. Whatever the career, people have to be looking at us. Of course, the Sun would prefer to be the boss, no matter what the job is, which is why the Sun doesn’t point in any one career direction. As long as those with this placement get favorable attention and some authority, they will be happy.

Moon in the Tenth House: The career, and our attitude towards it, go through phases. After all, the Moon does show where we are moody. This influence can bring either us or what we do before the public, no matter what the career. Some specific occupations it inclines to include anything to do with the home and food. This takes in work in hotels and restaurants, as well as the dairy industry.

Mercury in the Tenth House: means that communications or transportation will be a central part of the career. This would be a good placement for a writer, a public speaker, a salesperson, a TV or radio newscaster, or even cabdrivers and truck drivers, this means that communications or transportation will be a central part of the career.

Venus in the Tenth House: simply makes you look good, whatever you do. The danger is that you will look like you can deliver a better performance than you are able to. Traditional Venus occupations come under the headings of beauty, art, charm, and the social graces. The profession of artist is included, but so is art dealer and art museum worker. Beauty takes in beautician as well as those who work in factories producing beauty products. This includes all finery, jewelry, fancy clothing, etc. The social graces covers anything doing with public relations as well as people who plan social events for a living.

Mars in the Tenth House: Besides the obvious Mars occupations of professional athlete and military and police officers, Mars governs anything requiring energy, initiative, action. You could be in any profession with this one as long as you are able to have non-stop activity. Any supervisor you have will tend to be on the aggressive side, and even if they are not, this placement increases the chances of arguments with the boss. Mars here is one of those placements that would rather be the boss, not passively, like the Sun which just wants to get attention but to get things done.

Jupiter in the Tenth House: can give you luck here whether you want it or not. It can make the boss and powerful people in general, like you a lot. They will do things for you that they wouldn’t do for others and there is no apparent reason for this other than that Jupiter is the traditional planet of good luck. Specific Jupiter occupations run the gamut from professor, preacher, and philosopher (Jupiter rules the sign of Sagittarius, sign of religion, philosophy, and higher education) to high finance (Jupiter rules anything large and expansive), to any occupation involving world travel.

Saturn in the Tenth House: This placement is great for business. It is also good for the careers of medicine and research scientist, or of research in general. It is also the planet of hard work, discipline, and organizational ability, all of which are required by the above professional. Just remember that when you get to the top to keep working. Saturn also rules falls.

Uranus in the Tenth House: Forget working you way up the corporate ladder. Organizations don’t suit you, unless, of course, it’s your own organization, one you founded. There is getting to be less and less of large organizations lately due to the internet, which, by the way, is a very Uranian thing. If it’s new, unusual, on the cutting edge, and even shocking, well, that’s the profession for you. This is another placement of Uranus that can’t stand anyone looking over its shoulder. If you do have a boss, they are probably a genius, eccentric, or crazy.

Neptune in the Tenth House: Yes, this one may indicate confusion in career choice. Yes, you may do a stint as a bartender after getting that fine arts degree. Neptune in the tenth house can also make you a star. Neptune, after all, rules anything to do with illusions and that includes the film industry. Other occupations involve anything to do with taking care of the poor, the sick, and the unfortunate. This includes the medical and social work fields as well as those who work in prisons, orphanages, and nursing homes. On the negative side, many of those who ARE poor, sick, in prison, or substance abusers also have Neptune here. Oceanography, marine biology, and anything to do with the sea (including commercial fishing) are also possibilities. Yes, this one may indicate confusion in career choice.

Pluto in the Tenth House: has to do with death and rebirth so it’s a natural for medicine and psychotherapy. Neptune in the tenth house gives sympathy. Pluto does the actual healing. You also get venture capitalists here. Pluto rules the sign of Scorpio, sign of other people’s money. Other possible occupations remember, the actual choice also depends on other chart factors; the planet just indicates a range are anything at all dealing with death funeral worker, demolition expert and rebirth salvage worker, as well as anything dealing the underworld. Both police undercover agents and the criminals they hunt can have this placement.

Taurus

Virgo

Capricorn

Taurus is a Fixed Earth sign. TAURUS : Keywords are stubborn, materialistic, sensual. The most "fixed" of the fixed signs. People with several placements here particularly Venus incline to the more material, sensual side of life. It is opposite the sign. This is the sign of inertia. Any planet placed here will take a longer time to get moving, but will be much more difficult to stop. Taurus, being an earth sign, is also oriented towards physical things rather than mental like air signs or emotional like water signs or action like fire signs.

1. The Sun in Taurus: tends towards stubbornness. They are deliberate, very oriented toward the material world, and they do not like change in any form. Their favorite phrase is likely to be Let me chew this over or Give me some time to digest this. The shoulders, neck, and lower jaw tend to be tight and need frequent massage. They also tend to be fashionable. The other Taurus is the bull or linebacker type, and they couldn't care less how they look, as long as they have enough food and drink. To them, these come even before sex.


2. The Moon in Taurus: tends to be very romantic about the past, the good old days. Men with this placement will over idealize their mothers. The Moon shows where we can be moody. Taurus can minimize sudden mood swings due to the sign's inertia. However, when depression does set in, it can stay for the long haul. People with this placement have to be careful of brooding, especially over the past.


3. Mercury in Taurus: thinks about, money, food, owning real estate, and retirement. Like any Taurus placement, Mercury here takes a long time to get moving. But when it does move, it won't stop. This goes for talking, reading, writing.


4. Venus in Taurus: If you are going with someone who has this placement, be prepared to touch and massage them constantly. Too much is just barely enough for these folks. They love desert and tend to have a fondness for sweets.


5. Mars in Taurus: People with this placement of Mars never fight. Everything is going to be done their way so why bother to fight? Folks with this Mars may take longer to start, but they won't stop until feeding time. Sexually, they like it plain and simple and direct. Don't expect romantic flourishes here. Once they start, however, they can go all night.


6. Jupiter in Taurus: thinks that every problem can be solved with more money . The philosophy of life tends to be materialistic. Unless something else interferes, the general philosophy of life will be materialistic.


7. Saturn in Taurus: All a person with this placement needs to feel safe and secure is to have a roof over their heads, a few articles of clothing to wear, a little money in the bank, and, most important of all, as to where their next meal is coming from. If they get these things, they will seem to be the least materialistic of people. Once that little bit of security is threatened, however, they get upset until they get it back.


8. Uranus in Taurus: Here, the planet of sudden and unexpected change is in the sign that is slow to get started but difficult to stop. when Uranus is in Taurus, its energy is set to honest, constructive work. The erratic nature of Uranus is curbed here and the force of the planet does seem to concentrate in practical, material matters where its originality can have a great effect.


9. Neptune in Taurus: When the planet of imagination is in a material sign, the dreams, fantasies, and ideals of that generation will tend to be about material things. Since a whole generation is born with each placement of Neptune (it stays about 14 years in each sign) we can get an age that concentrates on materialism.


10. Pluto in Taurus: Pluto rules Scorpio, so it is debilitated in Taurus, the opposite sign. Here we have the planet of death and rebirth in a sign of stability, the planet of obsessions in a sign that loves material and sensual pleasures. The last time Pluto was here was from about 1853 to 1883.

Taurus is the Natural ruler of the second house

The Second House shows the state of your money and possessions, the things that you value, including your sense of self worth.

Sun in the Second House: will focus conscious awareness on money and possessions. These tend to become very important to someone with this placement. If the Sun forms stressful aspects these may be used to compensate for a lack of self worth

Moon in the Second House: Wherever the Moon is in the horoscope, things go up and down as if pulled by the tides. Here, of course, that applies to money and the sense of self worth. If you have this placement, you have to salt something away during the up phases so that you can get through the down times. Good advise for anyone? Yes, but especially for those with the Moon in the second house.

Mercury in the Second House: increases the chance that income will depend on communication skills. There is also a tendency to think about most things in terms of money and possessions.

Venus in the Second House: Venus is the planet of love, and here, it can give a love of possessions. But not just any old possessions. It gives a desire to collect beautiful and artistic things. It can also show a tendency to either spend a lot on one’s romantic interest, or, conversely, a desire to have the romantic interest spend a lot on you.

Mars in the Second House: Money in...money out. Mars doesn’t care which it is as long as the money is moving. Mars is, after all, the planet of action. There should be little trouble GETTING money. Mars just takes action. There tends to be difficulty in holding on to it though, since Mars is an impulsive spender. Like those with the Moon here, you have to make sure to save something for emergencies, but for a different reason. The Moon can cause income drops. Mars spends too freely.

Jupiter in the Second House: Jupiter is supposed to be the planet of good luck and Saturn the planet of bad luck. So why are there so many poor people with Jupiter here and so many rich ones with Saturn in the second house? Remember, Jupiter is where we feel lucky and optimistic, and Saturn where we feel fearful and insecure. The Saturn folks are so afraid of poverty, they work like crazy to have enough. Even when they get it, they still feel poor. Enough is never enough for them. Those with Jupiter in the second house, however, tend to feel lucky. Whenever they need money, it seems to fall in their hands, so why kill yourself working? With Jupiter in the second house, you will never starve, unless you are so incompetent that you blow your luck.

Saturn in the Second House: can work out in three different ways. First, there are those for whom enough is never enough. They tend to become rich in money, but they have to watch out not to miss out on life’s other pleasures. Second are those who value security and protection above all else. They frequently gravitate towards "secure" jobs in the civil service or with large corporations. The third group gets depressed and gives up. This last alternative is to be avoided. Saturn shows what we regard as important that we try to control it. So important that we get nervous and fearful and frequently blow it. In the second house, the important thing for Saturn is money. If you can work through your fears you will find that your sense of self worth is more important.

Uranus in the Second House: People with this placement are frequently self employed or get paid on commission. Those in show business tend to have this one. The money comes in lumps, and then nothing for a while. If you have a 9-5 job and Uranus in the second house, something always seems to happen to interrupt the income, frequently something crazy. I don’t just mean things like quitting or getting fired although that tends to occur with greater than normal frequency with this one, things like the company burns down. The only way to have both a steady income and Uranus in the second house is to work in some high tech or electronic field that Uranus rules.

Neptune in the Second House: Wherever Neptune is in our horoscope is the place where we don’t want to look at reality but would rather dream. Treat your money and possessions as if they belonged to someone else. Then you will take better care of them. With Neptune here, there is sometimes guilt associated with money. There can be a tendency to avoid it because money is thought to be dirty in some way, or the person feels that they don’t deserve to be rich. Ironically, some with Neptune in the second house can conceive of large scale financial schemes. Neptune is, after all, the planet of imagination. Money can come from medicine and social work, from film or dance the artistic and imaginative side, or from bartending. Neptune rules alcohol. Drugs come under Neptune as well. If you like that area, better make it a legal drug or chemical company, otherwise you’llend up in another Neptune-ruled place. Prison.

Pluto in the Second House: This is the planet of extremes. All or nothing. Life and death. Obsessions. Wherever Pluto is in the horoscope, we can easily become obsessed, and here, in the second house, it can easily be with money and possessions. But the opposite extreme is also possible and the person with this placement can treat money as if it were worthless. This is not the same as the vague feelings given by Neptune here. Pluto makes a full all or nothing commitment. If you have this Pluto placement, don’t just sit on your resources. They will grow or die, so keep working.

The Earth Triplicity

Virgo

Capricorn

Taurus

Virgo is a Mutable Earth sign.VIRGO : Keywords are details, work, details, criticism, details. Virgo's make great workers and fantastic critics.Virgo is called the sign of the virgin because for Virgo, it's always the first time. Virgo is the best sign in the zodiac for details. It is also the sign of work,So any planet placed here will tend to express itself with details. Work, and service of some sort.

The Sixth House shows HOW you work, not your career. That is governed by your tenth house. If the job you have is shown by your sixth house then it is a job. It also rules co-workers and subordinates. The sixth house indicates the quality of service you give to others as well as the quality of service they give to you, so this house rules, servants of all sorts. The other thing to look for here are conditions of health, the type of ailments to which you are prone.

The Sun in the Sixth House: means that you heart has to be in your work in order to get anything done, and you must be given appreciation for what you do. You have to shine where you work. So do the people who work for you. They tend to be dramatic and showy.

The Moon in the Sixth House: gives an emotional need to work. This is one of the workaholic positions. You are at home at work, and your work area will tend to look like a second home with little domestic touches. The co-workers and subordinates you attract are likely to be moody, and either they will need mothering or they will try to mother you.

Mercury in the Sixth House: Communications are emphasized with this placement. Work will heavily involve speaking, writing, or traveling, no matter what your career. The tendency is also to attract talkative co-workers and subordinates.

Venus in the Sixth House: The work environment is pleasant. It has to be otherwise you just can’t stand it. In a man’s chart, romantic interests are often met at or through work. This placement often makes it easier to find a job when you need one.

Mars in the Sixth House: Another workaholic placement. Mars needs action. If you have this placement, don’t take a routine desk job. Be up and around, moving, even arguing. Good for work requiring use of tools, machinery, or sharp instruments. Co-workers and subordinates will also be aggressive and energetic. Be careful of arguments on the job. You would probably love it.

Jupiter in the Sixth House: gives luck with finding jobs. Just make sure that you don’t blow it after they hire you because you happen to get bored. Make sure that you are up walking around at work. Jupiter rules the legs and they have to be kept active here. Co-workers and subordinates are generally jovial types or they come from foreign places and totally different backgrounds.

Saturn in the Sixth House: Saturn in the sixth house can mean that you don’t really succeed or get paid what you are worth on the job for at least seven years. The trouble is, many people with this placement quit after a couple of years out of frustration, and that puts them back to square one. Many of these Saturn in the sixth folks eventually go into business for themselves for this reason. Work is important to those with Saturn here. This position frequently gives superior organizational skills. Again, in the long run, the person with Jupiter, planet of good luck, in this house may squander it all while the one with Saturn here learns from the extra obstacles and pulls ahead.

Uranus in the Sixth House: can’t stand to have anyone look over their shoulder while they work. The only boss that you can stand if you have this placement is one who says Here’s the job. See me when it’s finished. You may be a genius at work or just plain crazy. Either way, you can shock those around you. Expect to quit or get fired more than normal because you want to do your own thing. Naturally, unusual jobs are best for you, or something dealing with electricity or hi-tech. Anything where you can innovate and shock to your heart’s content.

Neptune in the Sixth House: If your work doesn’t involve either taking care of the poor and unfortunate or using your imagination, prepare to daydream like crazy on the job and feel as if you were thrown into prison. You will get more than your share of co-workers and subordinates who will try to drain you both materially and emotionally.

Pluto in the Sixth House: If you have this placement, you need work that can really grab you, something you can get obsessed about. The work itself probably involves death and rebirth, which covers everything from psychologist to sewer worker. If it’s a normal job, the Pluto will come out in other, probably more negative ways: office politics and power struggles.
