Got Your Gram? ($9.95) for Kiddiegram Report
Moses is usually in harmony with himself and therefore he has the confidence and assurance to meet whatever obstacles he faces in life. His home life and family relationships give him a positive feeling about himself which overflows into all other aspects of his life.
This astrological portrait of your child is intended to give you insight into his unique gifts and challenges. Much of a child's behavior which may puzzle or stymie his parents are quite normal, common "developmental stages" of childhood, and there are a number of fine books available on the subject which illuminate the predictable stages that children experience as they unfold. In addition to the universal patterns, each child is an individual with particular qualities, potentials, and needs, and an understanding of these can help you parent your child more wisely and effectively. Acceptance and appreciation for a child's basic nature, and an awareness of the places where there might be stress or difficulties for your child, can be important allies in your parenting.
You will find that the interpretation of your child's chart is written in simple language, uncluttered by astrological jargon. If a statement appears to contradict another statement, then he exhibits these opposite qualities at different times in his life. For example, a statement that he is highly sociable and gregarious and a statement that you prefer solitude seemingly contradict each other; this means that he vacillates, and needs both sociability and solitude at different times.

The SUN in the birthchart represents who this child is at heart, his primary thrust in life, and what path he needs to follow in order to fulfill himself as a unique individual. It indicates who he is inside rather than the way he appears (which is shown more clearly by the Rising Sign).
Sun in Aries:
At heart, Moses has a strong need to act boldly and vigorously in living his life according to his own standards (and no one else's!). He has a strong competitive drive, thrives on challenge, and needs to be first in some way. It is hard for him to accept a secondary position, as he prefers either to lead or to go off alone and do his own thing. He does not compromise or make concessions easily.
Enthusiasm, initiative, self-reliance, courage, and an eager, positive attitude toward life are his strong points. Learning to direct his abundant energy into productive channels will be a challenge for him and for his parents. He requires a lot of physical activities and outlets; otherwise, he is likely to become very frustrated and disruptive at times. Athletics are a natural arena for him, but his drive may just as easily be directed into an intellectual sphere, in which case he will strive to be at the top of his class. Being the very best and triumphing over challenges is what he is aiming for, and he takes his successes or failures very much to heart. He needs to have some area in which he excels.
He will need to be encouraged to finish what he starts, to follow through, and to develop stamina and persistence, because sometimes he will enthusiastically begin a project only to drop it once the initial rush of excitement wanes.
He has a great sense of the drama of Good and Evil. The stories of Robin Hood, the Knights of the Round Table, or other, more modern versions of the Brave and Noble Hero doing battle with Evil Forces, have a powerful appeal for him.
He admires valor and decisive action, can be quite aggressive, and is not averse to a good fight. As an adult he is likely to fight for what he believes in.
He can be a difficult child to raise, especially if compliance, obedience, and submissiveness to parental authority are strongly emphasized in his home. He fiercely resists conforming to others ideas and ways. Also, he tends to be selfish in an unthinking, unintentional way. He is often so intent on carrying out his own desires that he is oblivious to how he affects other people. Unless other factors in his chart (such as the moon sign or the rising sign, or important planetary configuration) indicate otherwise, he may be difficult to socialize.
His manners and his awareness of other people's needs and feelings may be underdeveloped. He will need to be reminded (gently and often) to take others into account.
Sun Trine Moon:
Moses is usually in harmony with himself and therefore he has the confidence and assurance to meet whatever obstacles he faces in life. His home life and family relationships give him a positive feeling about himself which overflows into all other aspects of his life.
Sun Sextile Neptune:
Moses has a colorful, fanciful imagination. He enjoys acting, games of pretend and make-believe.
He is rather impressionable and gullible at times, also. He seems to believe that anything is possible, and he needs to develop a sense of discrimination, especially in regard to other people.
MERCURY represents thinking and reasoning processes, the way your child's mind works, his intellectual inclinations and way of communicating ideas.
Mercury in Pisces:
Moses's mind is intuitive and imaginative rather than strictly logical. More of an artist or poet than a scientist, he daydreams a lot, and it may be hard for him to articulate what he perceives and thinks about. Dry technical subjects hold no appeal for him.
Mercury Trine Jupiter:
Moses is broad-minded and has an interest in philosophy, social studies, religion, or other subjects that give him an overview or an overall, long-range perspective. A strong interest in foreign cultures and expanding his knowledge will inspire him to travel.
The MOON in the birthchart indicates how he deals with and expresses feelings, how he experiences the world on an emotional, feeling, non-verbal level, what his emotional needs are, and what he needs to feel secure, comfortable and at ease.
Moon in Leo:
Warm, sunny, cheerful, and something of a "ham," this child thrives on being the center of attention. He loves having an audience and he is likely to have some boisterous attention-grabbing techniques that are none too subtle, if he feels he is being ignored.
"Notice me! Love me! Tell me I'm wonderful!" may well be the underlying message of much of his behavior. He simply suffers if his special quality, his uniqueness, and his abilities are not noticed and appreciated. If he is given any encouragement at all, he will do his utmost to stand out, to be the best. He has a deep inner sense of nobility and pride and he very much needs respect, as well as the love and affection all children require. (Never ridicule or make fun of him, especially in public.) Given plenty of praise and love, no child will be more devoted, adoring, wholeheartedly loving, and affectionate than he is.
On the other hand, if he is lavished with adulation and made too much of, he is likely to become rather narcissistic, and to have a lop-sided sense of his own importance, so you will need to achieve a fine balance.
There is a natural performer in him, and he needs to have a medium through which to express his dramatic, creative side, a place where he can really shine out.
Also, he likes to make his own choices and decisions, and this should be allowed for as much as possible. Try not to engage him in power struggles over matters that are really not so important. He can be intensely persistent and willful!
Moon Opposition Neptune:
Moses is rather impressionable and gullible where other people are concerned, especially when his sympathy has been stirred. He needs to avoid negative people and surroundings as he tends to absorb whatever is in his environment. He also has a dreamy, imaginative side and he does not always distinguish fact from fiction. Sometimes he so wants to believe something that he tells himself it is true, with very little basis. Try to teach him discrimination, but do so gently, for he is quite sensitive and easily hurt.
Moon Trine Pluto:
Moses feels intensely and cares passionately about the people, places, and things he is attached to. He is very persistent and often irresistibly convincing when he wants something or is swept up by his emotions.
He is not casual or superficial, emotionally.
Moon Sextile Mars:
Moses enjoys rambunctious, rough-and-tumble games, and though he does not usually look for a fight,, he will stand up for himself when he needs to. He has a lot of restless energy and becomes irritable if he is cooped up for too long.
VENUS represents the way your child gives and receives affection, makes friends, and socializes. It also indicates artistic or creative inclinations.
Venus in Pisces:
Soft-hearted and compassionate, Moses's sympathy inclines him to try to take care of people or to befriend those that others ridicule. It is very hard for him to say no to a friend. Any unkindness really offends and hurts his feelings.
MARS represents your child's drive, ambition, will, energy level, and ability to assert himself.
Mars in Gemini:
Moses is a busy bee, always active, restless, and on-the-go, but he tends to lack concentration and stamina. He tends to run on nervous energy. He uses cleverness, words, and reasoning power to defend himself, rather than force.
Mars Opposition Pluto:
When he wants something, Moses is relentless, intensely willful and vigorous in his pursuit of it. He is capable of extraordinary effort, and he needs to have a release for his energy (some very challenging or strenuous work), for otherwise, he is inclined to stir up trouble or to become terribly angry with little provocation.
JUPITER in the birth chart reveals the child's future aspirations, and how he seeks to grow and improve himself. It also indicates areas of natural confidence, success, or "luck."
Jupiter in Scorpio:
Daring activities which have an element of danger or mystery appeal to Moses. He wants to live fully and passionately and not hold himself back from anything life has to offer. From rock climbing to scuba diving or investigating caves or other out-of-the-way places, he thrives on challenge. He seeks to grow through delving into the mysteries of life.
He's also extremely resourceful and has a "nose" for opportunities. Even when he's a youngster, his shrewd judgment of people and situations will serve him well.
Jupiter Square Neptune:
Moses believes in dreaming very big, the sky's the limit, and it may take him quite some time before he learns to temper his huge idealism and optimism with a dose of practical realism. Unless other astrological factors lend some caution and prudence, he's apt to go overboard in just about everything he does including his generosity and giving. Part of how he seeks growth and meaning is to help other people. This child tends to be a "bleeding heart".
Jupiter Trine Uranus:
Moses is apt to be very "lucky", escpecially when he trusts his instincts and intuition. He has an excellent sense of timing and an uncanny knack of showing up at the right place and the right time. Because he is enthusiastic and open minded he attracts opportunities to go places (both literally and figuratively) that more conservative family members will never see. Dancing, music, and other exuberant, joyful activities are important to him all his life.
The position of SATURN in your child's birth chart indicates the areas in which he is especially insecure, about which he is most serious, and/or in which he works hardest or is hardest on himself. It also reveals those weaknesses which, through effort, may become his greatest strengths.
Saturn in Leo:
Moses is often unable to accept external authority graciously. He wants to be the ruler and authority in his own life, and parents or teachers who try to rule him with a heavy hand will be greatly resented.
Moses can also be something of a snob in that he sets high standards of behavior for himself as well as for other people. If others don't measure up, he considers them his inferiors--no matter who they are or how much older they may be. In fact, he's apt to see himself as better than other people and to keep apart from them, while at the same time wanting their recognition and feeling--on a deeper level--unsure of his own worth. This child takes himself very seriously and says, in numerous ways, "Look at me!" Yet he is also acutely self-conscious and may even be shy. To his caregivers, it may seem that he cannot get enough reassurance, personal attention, or "strokes." In fact, he needs inordinate amounts of all of these. He must constantly prove his worthiness to himself, usually by working hard to be "the best" in some area of endeavor (academic, athletic, creative, etc.) This, of course, would be fine if he didn't take it all so seriously. It would be wonderfully helpful to this child if his lovableness and worthiness were conveyed to him often--regardless of his performance.
Being at once a proud and an insecure creature, he suffers acutely from any humiliation or affront to his dignity. Teasing--especially in public--is odious to him and may, therefore, be especially tempting to others (who probably wish he'd lighten up).
The slow-moving planets Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto represent the ideals, changes, and impulses of an entire generation. While the descriptions below may or may not describe your child as an individual, they will tell you about the climate of the times and the underlying issues and challenges of your child's age group.
For instance, when Neptune (which represents one's spiritual ideals, dreams, aspirations, fantasies and illusions) passed through the egalitarian and harmony-loving sign of Libra (from 1943-1957), the children who would grow into the "flower children," hippies, and supporters of the peace movement were born. Not every person born during that time became a hippie or identified themselves with the peace movement, but certainly they were affected by the feeling-tone and ideals of their age group and the times they grew up in. Thus, the following information is intended to give you insight into the important motifs and issues of your child's generation.
URANUS indicates where the impulse for change, innovation, liberation from the past, and experimentation with new forms is the strongest. It is where the status quo is disrupted or uprooted to make way for something new. Sudden inspiration and invention are also represented by Uranus.
Uranus in Pisces:
Those of this age group (2004-2012) have creative genius, unusual inspiration, and visionary ideals. Their art, music, literature, and lifestyles will be unusual or strange to others, and they have a rather unstable and impractical bent. They are inclined to be discontented with the ways of the world, but without a strong desire to make positive reforms in a practical way. Traditional religion does not suit them either, and they will experiment with their own personal forms of mystical experience.
NEPTUNE represents the quest for the ideal, the dream, for something more sublime. The sign it is passing through at the time of one's birth colors one's spiritual aspirations and ideals, and also indicates where the desire to escape reality, to fantasize, deceive oneself, and become lost in illusion is the strongest.
Neptune in Aquarius:
This group harbors great hopes for world unity and universal brother and sisterhood. An inner group impulse toward collective awakening and a strongly futuristic, visionary, evolutionary "dream". On the other hand, increasing globalization and impersonalization of daily life is strongly at work in their lives. How to contribute to the whole without becoming a cog in the machine is their quest.
PLUTO in the birth chart indicates a process of deep change, transformation, and renewal, often through destruction or confrontation with darkness. This is a process that takes place in society as well as in individuals. Pluto's position in the birth chart shows where one is compulsive, extreme, or learning key life lessons.
Pluto in Sagittarius:
For those born at this time, the order of business is the destruction of old, limiting concepts, philosophies, religious forms, and ideas about God or the nature of the Universe. At the same time, religious fanatics, extremists, and evangelical fundamentalists of many persuasions are likely to rise up quite strongly. There may be much conflict between those with powerful convictions of one kind or another.
