A need for harmony...

Introduction
As we usually do, we have made a blind study of the person. That is why we do not take a great interest in the person's media life, the gossip seekers will have to look elsewhere on the Net.

The aim of our western astrological studies is to understand the way a person functions, by getting to the heart of the matter; to bring out a simplified model that makes it possible to understand. And sometimes to anticipate.

The subject of today's study has a strong chart, in which we feel, beneath the early success, a need to reach harmony.

The Sagittarius-Libra structure usually gives a nice and warm nature. Venus, that rules the Libra sign, often adds charm, seduction and kindness.

Libra indicates someone rather sentimental and sensitive: this highly emotional person surely needs to be accepted, and to appear attractive. There is in this chart a certain fragility as far as emotional relationship is concerned.

But the Sagittarius sign is just as important here, with Fire as an element: a smouldering fire, red live embers that do not go out, making this person passionate, active... and lucky.
Jupiter (the development) and Pluto (the hidden energy), the two planets that rule the Sagittarius sign, are both precisely in House I (House "of the Personality"), increasing the idea of a strong, magnetic, ambitious, creative personality.

Moreover, the Sun near Uranus emphasizes a great need to live, a desire to impose one's will too. There is an overbearing side in this chart, a side that fascinates, because this original, daring person can strive with all her will and her mind for an only goal, her goal... Besides, the fact that seven planets out of ten are in the first three Houses confirms that this personality is focused on her personal growth.

However, even if the person enjoys "success" (Jupiter is in harmony with the Medium Coeli which symbolizes self-fulfillment), her own development is not necessarily that easy: on one hand, Venus, the Ego, the humid planet of the "feeling", is in the dry Capricorn sign; and on the other hand, Venus is dissonant with the three planets located in House I, Saturn, Pluto and Jupiter.

This configuration may lead to a certain unrest deep down, and probably to a lot of anxiety (Pluto).
The person finds it hard to express her real feelings, and even though she only yearns for love and union with others (Venus), she may experience more difficult times when she eventually becomes withdrawn; she can even come to contain all sensitivity. Venus dissonant with Saturn often indicates an emotional weaning (that can be found for instance in cases of divorce, or of a painful separation from a beloved person) and that feeling of emptiness, of dissatisfaction may drive the person to feel torn between a great sensuality and a cold detachment.

Venus dissonant with Pluto also shows that the passionate love that the person may feel can just as well transform itself into a bitter hatred... For there are here intense emotive impulses at stake, that the person vaguely feels, but that she finds difficult to control...

To that may be added the fact that Venus is dissonant with Jupiter which confirms that the person cannot put up with other people's authority, while she herself feels a probably excessive need to appear important...

Moreover, we may note that Venus, the Ego, is in the Capricorn sign, ruled by Saturn, the planet of Time, itself very important in the chart because of its location in House I: Time is thus an essential asset of the chart. For even if professional "success" comes early, and is marked by a true popularity (the Medium Coeli is in the Cancer sign, ruled by the Moon), the person takes time to reach her real inner balance. The cycle of Saturn lasting 29 ½ years, it is possible that at the age of 30, the person experiences profound upheavals in her life. Venus in Capricorn may indicate a late but solid love...

In addition, the position of the Moon in House V (House of "the Works and Creations") conveys a great need for motherhood, that time takes care to reveal... and to satisfy. The Moon in V is a very nice configuration for a blossomed mom... Venus, the Ego, being as for it in House IV (House of "the Family"), the person probably has a real feeling of well-being in her family, once her inner problems solved...

In every case, with four planets in the Sagittarius sign, the person is attracted by all "faraway" matters. She is very mobile and enjoys travelling, but she is also interested in ideas and their spreading, in media. The Sagittarius-Libra structure, rather sensitive and refined, also promises many talents, particularly aesthetic ones. It often belongs to artistic natures, gifted for instance for music or dance, music being the most aerial art (Libra has Air as an element).

In conclusion, this chart therefore gives the opportunity to enjoy, with time, a nice evolution. Sagittarius being a dual sign, the person first has to realize that two personalities do coexist in herself (as in the centaur): one, more animal, instinctive, very dynamic and full of "joie de vivre"; the other one, more spiritual, reflective and looking for ideals.

Whatever the person's role in society may be, her real challenge is to succeed in making the fusion, the synthesis of her two personalities...

For it is only when this "unification" is achieved that the person can really find happiness and enjoy living "in harmony" with herself and the rest of the world...
