My Solar Return Chart Project

This is my Solar Return (Sun returns to the exact degree and sign it was at when you were born) Chart starting on my birthday 2014 ending 2015.

I am going to attempt to apply the knowledge I gain in astrology to my solar return chart as I go.  I feel this is an important year and I really need to learn about this chart as well as my natal chart.


The Elements:
• Fire: "These signs are fiery, ardent (passionate), enthusiastic, spontaneous, self-sufficient, and romantic.  Misused they can be bossy and too forceful." (1p6)
• Aries
• My 6th House starts here.
• My 7th House starts here.
• Uranus
• Leo
• My 10th House starts here.
• This is also my MC/Midheaven.
• Moon
• Sagittarius
• My 3rd House starts here.
• Earth: "These signs are practical, earthy, dependable, conservative and sensual.  They love material comforts and have good recuperative powers.  Misused, they can be dull and too materialistic." (1p6)
• Taurus
• My 8th House starts here.
• Venus
• Virgo
• My 11th House starts here.
• Capricorn
• Pluto
• Air: "These signs can communicate well; they tend to be intellectual, and they are able to handle abstract reasoning.  They are logical, broadminded, objective, idealistic and unprejudiced.  Misused, they can be cold and impractical." (1p6)
• Gemini
• My 9th House starts here.
• Sun
• Libra
• My 12th House starts here.
• My 1st House starts here.
• This is also my AC/Ascendant.
• Mars
• North Node
• Aquarius
• My 4th House starts here.
• Water: "These signs are feeling, sustaining and receptive.  They are emotional, intuitive, responsive, sensitive and deep.  They tend to be susceptible to moods, and are easily influenced by the environment.  Remember that water is found in three forms: liquid (water), frozen (ice), and gaseous (steam). Cancer is the liquid form; Scorpio is the frozen form, and Pisces is the gaseous form.  Misused, these signs can be self-indulgent, self-pitying and wavering." (1p6)
• Cancer (liquid water)
• Mercury
• Jupiter
• Scorpio (frozen ice)
• My 2nd House starts here.
• Saturn
• Pisces (gaseous steam)
• My 5th House starts here.
• Neptune
• Chiron


Both Air and Water are tied for majority influence in my nature/personality for the year.  I feel as though I need to explain the way I feel about describing someone's personality for the year.  I know you are who you are and the core of your personality may not change.  However if you are evolving you will incorporate other aspects into your personality to try to achieve balance of all of the elements.  That is the way I see it anyway.  The most influential element in my natal chart is also air.  So this year I will maintain my airy qualities.  In an effort to evolve this year I am tasked with learning about my water type characteristics and try to achieve a nice balance of both.


So how to a balance Air
"These signs can communicate well; they tend to be intellectual, and they are able to handle abstract reasoning.  They are logical, broadminded, objective, idealistic and unprejudiced.  Misused, they can be cold and impractical." (1p6)
And water
 "These signs are feeling, sustaining and receptive.  They are emotional, intuitive, responsive, sensitive and deep.  They tend to be susceptible to moods, and are easily influenced by the environment.  Remember that water is found in three forms: liquid (water), frozen (ice), and gaseous (steam). Cancer is the liquid form; Scorpio is the frozen form, and Pisces is the gaseous form.  Misused, these signs can be self-indulgent, self-pitying and wavering." (1p6)
To evolve personally in this year's divine timing?


First I have to say that the air and water combination reminds me of Aquarius.  Aquarius is called the "Water Bearer" but is an air sign.  Many people don't understand how this could be.  When I see Aquarius and thus the water and air combination, I see the clouds.  I think they are a perfect representation of this combination.  The water held in the air going from place to place releasing the mists of life.


Ok anyway back to what I need to learn from this for the coming solar year.
I believe this is an indicator that it is time to learn more about my feelings.  I need to learn to be more receptive.  Acknowledge, understand, and communicate my feelings.  Learn things on a deeper level.  I need to be more sensitive to my intuition and my ideals.  Not just learning information and communicating it but feeling it at the same time.  It is time to experiment with and experience the knowledge I have gained.  I need to be  unprejudiced, objective and broadminded when responding to the needs of others.  When I feel I am being influenced to much by the environment and those around me I need to look at those feelings from a more logical and intellectual point of view.  Water will definitely help with trying not to be cold and impractical.  Just as Air can really help with not becoming self-indulgent and self-pitying.  It is a good combination to try and practice.
