Progressed Sun: Turning Points in Your Life
| We carry our Sun sign with us throughout our entire lives. If I'm a Libra, I'll always be a Libra. However, in secondary progressions, the Sun "progresses" in a symbolic sense through our natal Sun sign, and then beyond it to subsequent signs. Secondary progressions are "a day for a year", and because the Sun moves just under one degree per day, our Sun symbolically progresses just short of one degree every year of our lives. Because there are 30 degrees for every sign, if I was born in the latter days of a Libra Sun, my Sun would progress to the sign of Scorpio in my early childhood, and to the sign of Sagittarius in my early to mid-30's. If I was born near the beginning of a Libra Sun, however, my progressed Sun would enter Scorpio close to my 30th birthday, and to Sagittarius in my late 50's. The changeover of signs marks a critical turning point in a person's life. At the very end of a sign (just before changing signs), individuals may make life-changing, impulsive decisions. |
Your progressed Sun enters Scorpio at age 15. The ages of 14 to 16 mark a critical turning point in the development of your personality. Circumstances are such that you develop a slightly thicker skin. You become more passionate and have less of a need to rely on others for support, and your power to make decisions improves.
Your progressed Sun enters Sagittarius at age 45. The ages of 44 to 46 mark a critical turning point in the development of your personality. After some sort of crisis of consciousness, and perhaps elimination of circumstances that have been limiting your growth, you begin to feel lighter, more free, and decidedly more outgoing. Your desire to learn increases, and your sense of humor is enriched.
Degree Meanings of your Sun
15 Libra
Sabian Symbol:Sabian symbols present imagery associated with the degree of your Sun in Libra. Either of the following may apply, depending on the exact degree of your Sun: If Sun is 14-15 degrees Libra: "Circular Paths" If Sun is 15-16 degrees Libra: "After A Storm A Boat Landing Stands In Need Of Reconstruction" |
Harmonic Degree Meaning:The following is the degree meaning of your Sun (15 degrees Libra) based on harmonic sign influences. "Devoted to family. May be overly protective of family members or a defender of nationality and country." |
Numerology of October 8
You
were born on the 8th day, which suggests you have a strong need for security and
you are willing to put in the extra effort to achieve it. You are a
better planner than the typical Libra personality.
Factoring in the 10th month of October, you are a number
9, which suggests you are a true humanitarian. You can be rather moody at times,
but very wise as well, especially as you age. Factoring in your birth year gives
you your Birth Path Number—a highly personal number for you.
Most Favorable Days of the Month are 8, 17, 26, especially when these days (of any month) fall on a Saturday; and/or when the Sun is in Capricorn. The best colors for you are dark ones--dark grey, black, dark blue, and deep purple. You might want to wear amethyst, sapphire, black pearl, or black diamond next to your skin.
Birthday Forecast for You
2007
is a Number Nine year for you. Ruled by Mars. This is a year of completion and transition. It is a
time when we need to let go of things that no longer serve their purpose, and
hold on to things that have a future. It is a time of cleaning out dead wood,
not necessarily for new beginnings. It can be a time when a burden has been
taken off your shoulders, and it can be a year of giving of yourself. Advice -
let go of things that are holding you back, give of yourself and express your
sympathetic, compassionate side.
2008 is a Number One year for you. Ruled by the Sun. This is a year of action. The seeds you plant now, you will reap later. Others might find you less sociable, as you are busier than ever and you focus on your activities and your needs. Still, you are outgoing and your initiative is stronger than ever. Advice - Stand alone, take action, start fresh, express independence.
Compatibility
You Are Drawn to People Born on...
| Easy, subtle attraction and harmony: You don't feel an irresistible pull
towards each other, but over time, appreciate the peace you have between
you. These people are good for you, although they might not challenge you to
grow. January 30-February 9, June 1-June 11, August 4-11, December 4-10 |
| On-again, off-again attraction. This is a
complex connection, and you make an odd yet interested couple. March 4-8, May 4-8, September 6-10, November 6-10 |
| A mysterious attraction that can be very romantic...or completely
platonic! This is a spiritual connection that has a magical quality to it. January 17-21, June 21-25, August 14-18, November 26-30 |
| Opposites attract. Push me, pull me. You could
complement each other well if you allow yourselves to learn from each other,
or you could actively war against each other. March 31-April 10 |
| Attraction of the soul; challenging, intense, rich, and
binding.
August 26-30, November 16-20 |
| Powerful, tumultuous attraction--you are aware of the distinct differences between
you, but may be drawn to each other because of the simultaneous awareness of
a need and a lack. Either the relationship is ongoing and obviously
tumultuous and of a "love-hate" nature, or it flows well until it breaks unexpectedly. January 1-11, February 17-21, May 20-24, July 2-12, August 21-25, October 3-13, November 21-25 |
| Creative, communicative, inspiring, and spiritually rewarding
connections.
February 26-March 2, May 10-14, July 24-28, December 17-21 |
What's in the Cards...
| Today's playing cards are based on an ancient system similar to the Tarot. Each birthday of the year is associated with a main playing card, the Birth Card, and each tells its own story. |
|
|
The card associated with your birthday is the Ace of Diamonds. Some believe that, with Ace of Diamonds as your birthday card, you can't seem to have both love and money in your life--that money and love are mutually exclusive for you! The reason for this, however, has to do with your tendency to pour your heart into one particular endeavor at a time. It's not true in absolute terms, but it has the truth in it! You are intense, love life, and possess much determination and ambition. Your love card is the 5 of Hearts, suggesting you pour your emotions into a relationship. Love does not scare you!
