Mars is the first dominant in Albert Cancook’s astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

In the Greek tradition, Mars or Aries was the god of war. Traditional astrology associates him with the element fire, the color red, and the taste of bitterness. Although it also symbolizes the elder brother in the cosmic family, it is more likely to be associated with declared enemies or adversaries. Martian morphology is typically virile, angular, and athletic and corresponds to aggressive, domineering, masculine behavior. Likewise, Mars is usually associated with rage, its resultant brutality, and male destructiveness and domination.

Psychologically, Mars figures in any situation of conflict, opposition, and confrontation. Martian symbolism intervenes to separate, oppose, and decide and corresponds to duels, war, and any situation in real life which involves confronting an obstacle. Individuals who are greatly influenced by Mars are typically direct and straightforward—either unabashedly extroverted or furiously introverted. They are extremely active and extremely emotive. Their purpose in life seems to be inextricably mingled with a combat against an unacceptable situation, a challenge which they either issue or are forced to accept.

The sun is the second dominant in Albert Cancook’s astral chart. In the following paragraph, we shall indicate the significance of this fact:

As the heart of the solar system and the gravitational center of the travels of the earth and the other planets, the sun is the primordial light, the source of all warmth and life. From the dawn of humanity, it has been worshipped. It has symbolized the absolute power kings and despots yearn for and emulate. The sun king, the nucleus of society, embodied a principle of cohesion and harmony.

Various subordinates—aka planets—revolved around it. In terms of psychological symbolism, the sun corresponds to the center of an individual, the factor that rules your psyche. Its luminous aspects are usually associated with knowledge and consciousness. As a creator of life, it is related to the image of the mother and the influence of motherhood on an individual’s consciousness and ideals. As a result, the sun’s position in a birth chart always indicates the way in which an individual will relate to your goals and ideals, what your ambitions and aspirations might involve.

A person whose chart is strongly “solar” usually identifies very positively with motherhood. Albert Cancook’s personality is friendly, energetic, and creative, with high ideals and a firm determination to accomplish them. He takes his own superiority and authority over others for granted, and he has a natural ability to command the attention and admiration of an audience. He is a born leader who enjoys being in the limelight and may behave somewhat theatrically or with dramatic exaggeration.

He has definite artistic leanings. The sense of his ideals is evident to him and may lead him to be somewhat self-focused. If ill-directed, his deep aspirations may lead to such faults as egotism, selfishness, or greediness for power.

Venus is the third most dominant planet in Albert Cancook’s astral chart. This means that Venus has a significant influence on Albert Cancook’s life and personality.

In traditional astrology, Venus (or Aphrodite, her Greek name) is the planet of love. A source of universal attraction, this planet corresponds to the original urge which bonds two human beings together in love. Venus is thus both the magnetism which brings human beings together (not lust, which is symbolized by Mars, but the object which attracts lust) and the gift of love. This ambiguity is interpreted astrologically by the fact that Venus rules two houses of the zodiac. In Taurus, Venus symbolizes the awakening to bodily lust, and in Libra, the bond of marriage. As a result, Venus may take on very different aspects depending on the individual’s degree of awareness.

Likewise, this ambiguity explains Aphrodite’s equivocal conduct in Greek myth and her innumerable couplings and motherhood. Depending on the legend, she may embody brutal, passionate love (with Anteros), the wisdom of the heart which rescues from passion (Harmonia); she also becomes tenderness and purity (with Adonis), pure sexuality (with Eros), a transforming energy (with Vulcan), etc. Mistress of the Arts, she represents beauty, understanding, and peace.

Psychologically, individuals under the influence of Venus are struggling with their love instincts. This is why Albert Cancook cannot conceive of living without a personal emotional relationship to someone else and sometimes fears solitude and the encounter with himself. Albert Cancook is extremely attractive to others and is a creator and artistic genius who seems to imbue all he touch with beauty and harmony. His artistic skills are obvious to the people around him and may be applied to career endeavors.

Pleasure, outings, seduction, love, and a thriving but sometimes superficial social life are the hallmarks of Albert Cancook’s life.

The seventh house is an area of the sky which is especially important in Albert Cancook’s theme, because it contains several planets, including the one which rules his rising sign. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

According to astrological tradition, the seventh house is related to marriage, contracts, social life, and worldly matters. It can be read for indications about a future marriage partner (the first), and business partners, your “objective allies” as well as your enemies.

Diametrically opposed to the Ascendant, the Descendant (the doorway into the seventh house) symbolizes everything that complements you or opposes you. This house thus represents the encounter with the other world, the non-ego. By extension, it embodies all the experiences which result from this encounter: interpersonal relationships, partnerships, marriage, rivalry, contracts, and conflicts, etc.

When this area is especially significant, it indicates that a great deal of your energy will be invested in the domain of relationships. Bonds, contracts, partnerships, and perhaps the disputes and conflicts which may arise from them will be prominent aspects of your success. However, you will evolve fastest and learn most from friendships and partnerships. You will have to learn to be objective.

Your goal will be to master the interdependency of your relationships, and go beyond a tender and dutiful reciprocity to a truly beneficial mutual exchange and sharing.

By making a distinction between love (the fifth house) and marriage (the seventh house), traditional astrology shows us the difference between the projection of narcissistic self-love (simple self-expression) and the objective encounter with the other on a truly egalitarian basis. To reach the seventh house from the fifth, it is necessary to travel through the sixth: a reorientation of personal energies.

The sixth house is an area of the sky which is especially important in Albert Cancook’s theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.

According to tradition, the sixth house is related to health and Albert Cancook’s relationship to his body. It is thus related to illness, hygiene, nutrition, and bodily care. More specifically, this area rules the various failures which Cancook encounters and accumulates in the course of his evolution, which are sometimes expressed as physical disorders like aches and pains, digestive problems, etc.

This area should thus be associated with the need faced by Cancook to examine his ego, in order to consciously reorient and transform the behavior he has unconsciously adopted. Should Cancook refuse this reorientation process or try to flee from it, physical discomfort or suffering may set in as a sort of signal – the proof that the impurities of his ego are obstructing the natural flow of his life.

The difficulty Cancook faces concerns his personal growth as a member of society. It shows that he is not yet ready to approach others appropriately, that he must tone down an inflated ego or beef up an insecure, weak ego. The importance of this area in Cancook’s theme indicates that experiences related to work, duty, health care, self-transformation, and the continuous harvesting and re-planting of his energies and ego are fundamental and may have a major impact on his destiny.

Traditionally, astrologers associated this house with humbly serving others. We interpret this to mean that a person who has not consciously begun the work of reorienting their personality may be doomed to remain the slave of thankless tasks, to toil at subordinate functions deprived of privilege.

The third house is an area of the sky which is especially important in celebrity Albert Cancook’s theme. In the following paragraph, we shall explain the general meaning of this fact.
