Page 5INTRODUCTION“The adolescent must never be treated as a child, for that is a stage of life that he has
surpassed. It is better to treat an adolescent as if he had greater value than heactually shows than as if he had less and let him feel that his merits and self-respect
are disregarded". Maria Montessori
Adolescence is one of the trickiest parts of life. We all know this and yet adolescents,
their parents and teachers are often left without a means to understand how best tofind and give support. Astrology can offer much to help people understand themselves
as well as other people. For young people growing and developing at an exponential
rate, self-understanding is crucial. For parents and teachers, understanding how tohelp the children in their care is extremely important.
This report was written by a highly qualified astrologer and teacher specialising in childdevelopment. It can help guide parents and teachers to become the authority figures
they need to be. For adolescents, it can be the first step in understanding themselves
through the lens of Astrology. It is not intended to replace a live consultation with aprofessional astrologer who is qualified to work together with parents and adolescentsto help improve how they relate to each other as they both work through this brief but
intense time of growing up. One other important point to mention is that of childprotection. No astrologer should consult with people under the age of 18 without aparent present. The author also advises that parents read this report in conjunction
with their teenager, helping both gain an understanding of this introduction into therealm of Astrology.
Although this report does not include all planetary transits, the author would like topoint out that there are significant transits or moments in time to look for whenjourneying further into adolescent Astrology. Some of these have been included in a
general format. For instance, the current position of the planets Jupiter and Saturnconnect to Birth Charts at well-known milestones in child development. Jupiter makesthese important contacts about every three years and Saturn makes its important
contacts about every seven years. In adolescence, the crucial ages are 12 (for the
Jupiter return), 14 (for the first Saturn opposition) and 15 (for a Jupiter square).
These years are the important times for parents and teachers to focus their resourcesand energy.

CHILDHOOD“The events of childhood do not pass but repeat themselves like seasons of the year”.
- Eleanor Farjeon

The Moon

When we are born, most of us are naturally close to our mothers: we have heard hervoice in utero and we have absorbed the nutrients from her body. The mother, whichin Astrology is represented by the Moon, describes us as children. As we grow, ourperceptions are filtered through our experiences and attitudes which are represented
by our Ascendant. Eventually we mature enough to follow our own path which isrepresented by the Sun. Although we never fully outgrow our Moon, we begin to growinto our Sun through our Ascendant as we get older. This process becomes more
noticeable in adolescence.
Adolescence is a time of many changes. In the West, we tend to focus on the physicalchanges of puberty. It’s a difficult and complex process that leaves many parents andteachers puzzled. Astrology serves as a good way to understand the social,
neurological and emotional changes that an adolescent goes through.

The Moon is in Taurus

As a child, you may have experienced your mother (or main caregiver) as stubborn
and iron-willed. You may have been indulged with the good things in life and may havedeveloped a taste for the finer things in life. Perhaps, as you got older, you were told
you were very stubborn and resistant to change. Learning to go with the flow andembracing changes are skills that will allow you to leave your comfort zone. You willneed to develop flexibility and time efficiency.

Moon is Conjunct Midheaven

You may be so comfortable at home that you choose to make it your workplace. If you
do work away from home, you may choose to work in the caring professions because
you need to feel needed.

Moon is Trine JupiterYou have a big-hearted personality which other people find very attractive. Optimistic,
generous and well informed, you inspire other people to do good deeds in the world. It
is likely people come to you for advice because you are trusted to be wise and just.

Moon is Sextile Saturn>From a young age, it is likely that you were given responsibilities that allowed you tocultivate a very good work ethic. Although your serious nature may lack enthusiasm,
you are very determined to succeed. You are able to troubleshoot problems with ease
as well as provide workable solutions in any crisis.

Moon is Square Neptune

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 7You have a wonderful sense of imagination but need to ensure that you direct it
towards positive rather than negative matters. For instance, worry and fear are to be
avoided where possible. Likewise, escaping from reality is not advisable. A trusted
confidant can help you get a better measure of what is happening so you can channel
your creative talents into appropriate tasks and projects.

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 8ADOLESCENCE“Adolescence is a new birth, for the higher and more completely human traits are now
born”.
- G Stanley Hall

The Sun is in Scorpio

As an adolescent you most likely started to become more aware that you are very
resourceful and have a good eye for value. Because of this, you are most likely very
decisive about what is useful to you and what is not. As you mature, you become morepassionate about obtaining your desires and perhaps more ruthless if required. Your
life lesson is to understand your strengths and to use them carefully.
You do best in a school that encourages you to do rigorous research. You have a knackof getting to the bottom of mysteries and puzzles that have had less intense minds
perplexed. Any topic that requires investigation skills are likely to appeal to you.
If you have an interest in detective work then breaking codes can be an excellent
outlet for pent-up energy. The Occult, Forensics and Psychology are all suitable for an
eager young Scorpio.
Your close and extended family can best support you through adolescence by
accepting your need for understanding how things work. You probably like taking
things apart, finding new uses for junk and finding ways to economize very appealing.
Parents, caregivers and teachers can encourage your frugal nature while also providing
a safe structure by allowing you to manage the family budget or be in charge of recycling. The time has come for you to step out of the shadows.

Sun is Opposite Midheaven

It is likely you bring a lot of pride to the family. You put much energy into creating acosy residence that other people feel comfortable in. People seek your advice on homemanagement and creative projects.

Sun is Trine Mars

You have a good deal of energy and ambition and can easily get caught up with what
other people are doing. You rush through things which often means you have to re-dothem to get them right. It can be easy for you to become burned out and over-excited.

Sun is Sextile JupiterYou are confident and optimistic which naturally draws people to you. Because you
believe everything eventually works out in favour, you are probably known for taking
on too much too soon. Assessing risk before you take on bigger projects will help you
avoid over-committing.

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 9Sun is Trine Saturn

You are very adept at understanding what you need to do in order to reach your goals.
Understanding your limitations and your talents are the keys to your success. You
have a way of making the most difficult tasks seem easy.

Sun is Square Neptune

You have a lot of creativity and imagination but it can be difficult for you to be
comfortable in expressing it. It is important for you to assess situations realistically,
perhaps with the help of wise counsel, in order to avoid people who may try to takeadvantage of you.

RELATING TO OTHERS“Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck”.
- Dalai Lama

The Ascendant

We look at the world through the lens of our Ascendant. This is also often how theworld sees us. It is like a prism through which we reach out and others peer in. Our
Ascendant also filters our perceptions and is the pathway between our past which isrepresented by our Moon and our future which is our Sun.

The Ascendant is in Leo

You are likely to look at the world through the eyes of a seasoned actor. Through being
self-aware, you develop your individuality and flair and can help others find theirs.
People are drawn to you for your confidence and generosity. However, it is importantfor you learn to understand that you are not always needed on stage and to let others
have their share of the limelight.

Mercury

Mercury governs the rote learning that enabled us to learn simple information andrepeat what we have learned. We may find it easy to learn via rote or we may find it
difficult. As a result, Mercury can tell us how well or not we cope with early childhood
learning, and later on in school. As we get older our learning becomes moresophisticated and we begin to learn how to expand our ideas through our Jupiter Sign.

Mercury is in Scorpio

As a child, you were probably a very intense learner who needed to understand theimportance of what was being taught. You can be resourceful wanting to understandyour subject fully. You learn well through solving mysteries. As you mature, it isimportant for you to take knowledge at its face value rather than continually searchingfor deeper meanings.

Mercury is Square Ascendant

You can appear extremely nervous or unable to take in information because you are
distracted by something else. Because you over-intellectualise everything, you can
become erratic unless you are firmly grounded.

Mercury is Square Uranus

You find it very difficult to accept traditional ways of doing things and will often rebel
just for the sake doing things differently than other people. Although you keep otherson their toes, it is likely you generate a lot of resentment for time wasting. Take thetime to let your mind rest rather than keeping it on high alert for long periods of time.

Venus

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 11Venus is associated with what you like and what you enjoy in other people. In otherwords, your social life. You may like to explore new horizons in your relationships.
Alternatively, you may prefer to bond over a cup of tea at the kitchen table. Everyone
has different ways of enjoying social connections, and different expectations of loved
ones. As an adolescent, by understanding the rewards of Venus in your Birth Chart,
you can be motivated to learn and develop your social skills. This can also help you to
accept other people’s differences. As well, you can gain an understanding of how yourrelationships affect your ability to apply yourself to learning, life, work and so on.

Venus is in Sagittarius

You enjoy being given the opportunity to explore new concepts. You appreciatecovering new ground at breakneck speeds but struggle with tasks that look tedious.
You are likely to have your favourite subjects that you tackle with relish, and thenothers that you struggle to complete because they just don’t light your fire. You
understand the meaning of a long journey and will happily go along with anything,providing that there is an explanation of what is in it for you. Your teachers can help
you by plotting your progress against long term goals. Your parents may be alarmed
by the risks that you take, and the corners that you skip. Within reason, they need tolearn to trust that you are conscious of your own safety and have considered the longterm consequences of your decisions. Your social life is likely to be varied with friends
from different walks of life, not just your school. Religion, sport, philosophy, stamp
collecting or anything that sparks an interest in the world at large is likely to be a richsource of social contacts.

Venus is Square Mars

People tend to think you can be difficult to be around because you put out the signalthat you are only focused on what you want. You have to be seen to be more giving
and able to compromise if you want to avoid conflict. Once others get to know you andtrust that you can be fair, opportunities will open up for you.

Venus is Sextile Neptune

You are quite romantic and are probably known for your creative flair. Sensitive by
nature, you attract artistic types and prefer gentle activities such as listening to musicor participating in some sort of craft work. Try not to compromise who you really are inorder to make someone else happy.

Mars

Mars represents your fighting spirit and how you get what you want. An understandingof this fiery planet can help adolescents learn how to direct their energy early in life,
and therefore achieve their ambitions. A well-directed Mars is about drive, ambition
and achievement. However, a mis-directed Mars can be lethargy, aggression and rash
behaviour. Therefore, the earlier that a person learns about how to direct their energy,
the better able they are to move forward on a positive path.
Mars also becomes important in adolescence as it also represents the sexual urgesthat are just beginning to emerge. To a point, the sex education classes offered inschools help teenagers understand how to develop healthy sexual relationships.
However, understanding your Mars can also help you learn how to best direct yoursexual energy.

Mars is in Pisces

You know exactly what you want because most likely you’ve been visualizing it. It’sdifficult for you to say no to anything. You tend to put your energy into people andprojects that you find enchanting. As child you had compassion for all living creatures.
For instance, the death of a butterfly quickened your emotions, and perhaps also yourtalent for writing a poem or painting a beautiful artwork. You are motivated by yourimagination. This is something that needs to be understood, and directed positively, byAstro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 12teachers and parents. Any talents in the arts, or perhaps healing fields, need to be
encouraged. Structured learning may be difficult for you, and so alternatives could besought. You need to surround yourself with positive, and understanding, friends.

Mars is Sextile Midheaven

It is likely that you find it hard to relax in your home because of all the activity.
Emotional upsets may be common if excess energy is not channelled into more
appropriate activities such as sports or other types of competitions.

Mars is Opposite Jupiter

It is important for you to have a physical outlet for all your energy but you must also
employ moderation because you tend to be reckless. Ensure safety measures areundertaken to prevent accidents and before you start anything, make sure you have aplan to follow or you could waste a lot of time and resources.

Mars is Trine Saturn

You are self-disciplined and have ample stores of patience which help you plan how
you are going to be successful. Defeat is not something you are familiar with because
you are so cautious in the planning stage. Other people admire you for your strengthand ability to assume a wide range of responsibilities.

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 13GROWTH“Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It's about widening
your knowledge and absorbing the truth about life."- Shakuntala Devi

Jupiter

Jupiter represents the learning process and how you put ideas together to build apersonal philosophy. Your use Jupiter to explore new concepts and to search formeaning and truth. Jupiter also represents the leap of faith it takes to learn anddevelop. In synastry, to understand another person’s Jupiter allows you to anticipate
how you can protect them and keep them safe without imposing your own perceptionsof limitations onto their growth and development.

Jupiter is in Virgo

Virgo is an Earth Sign meaning that you are practical, kinaesthetic and grounded. You
like activities that allow you to work with your hands or that allows you to use yourbusiness skills. You dislike anything you might regard as frivolous so allow yourparents and teachers should allow you to set your own objectives when possible.
In Astrology, Virgo is also a Mutable Sign indicating that you can be are an adaptablelearner who thrives on change and variety. Although you tend to be very good attaking on projects, it can be difficult for you to see them to their completion. Limiting
yourself to fewer than three things at once can help you keep your focus and to ensure
you finish as well as you start.

valuable but can sometimes leave others feeling less adequate. It is important for you
to remember to show compassion and servitude to others.

making an aspect to Jupiter in your Birth Chart meaning that external circumstances

emotional currents of the adult world, and the motivations of others. At this age yourparents needed to be as honest and open as possible. Although you could be very
quiet, you had the ability to get attention very quickly with the information that you
had gathered.
Similarly, at three-years-old, a Jupiter transit meant that external circumstances
challenged you to become an explorer who was adept at expressing your desire for
freedom. Your parents needed to establish clear boundaries to keep your safe without

Learn to budget and save for a rainy day and remember if something seems too good
to be true, it probably is.

Jupiter is Sextile Saturn

quickly and effortlessly. In particular, planning ahead is one of your most valuable
skills. Working with young people is just one possible channel for your talents because
they can see you genuine care for their well-being.

Jupiter is Square Pluto

UNDERSTANDING“We have to confront ourselves. Do we like what we see in the mirror? And, according
to our light, according to our understanding, according to our courage, we will have tosay yea or nay - and rise”.
- Maya Angelou

SaturnSaturn represents the cycle of personal growth and development. This planet depicts
how to manage your life and to understand your own fears and limitations. Saturn also
represents the areas in your life that have the most potential for success. By
understanding your own Saturn, you become the strength someone else needs todevelop and become stronger.

Saturn is in Cancer

Cancer is a Water Sign meaning one of your greatest fears involves expressing yourtrue feelings. To protect yourself from shame and embarrassment, you will put a lot ofeffort into concealing your weaknesses. As a result of this, you have the potential to
become an astute people person who responds to crises in a calm and measured
manner. If Saturn is used well, you will make yourself someone other people come torely upon.
In Astrology, Cancer is also a Cardinal Sign indicating that you may feel that you havethe responsibility of leading other people. You may focus on developing yourleadership skills or strenuously trying to avoid situations where you may be expected
to step up. Whichever way you decide to go, Saturn has a way of ensuring you develop
what you need. It won’t be fun and you will make many mistakes but others will cometo see you as a person who knows when to step up and when to step aside.
You are naturally very protective of those you love and trust and will go to great
lengths to protect the things you are comfortable with. As you grow older, you may
become more withdrawn. Your lesson in life is to learn to trust new people andsituations.
When you are five-years-old you experience what astrologers call a Saturn Transit.
This means that external circumstances teach you to value stability and precision.
During this time, you may find there are many ways to disturb your sense of security
and order. Your lesson at this stage is to learn embrace the creativity chaos can bring.
Similarly, at seven-years-old a Saturn transit means that external circumstances
challenge you to be more understanding about what other people need in theirrelationships. During this time, you may begin to wonder more about your own needs
in relationships and how you can fulfill them. Your lesson at this stage is to learn tofocus on your own needs and desires. You will be learning skills to help you manage
people in the future.
At 14-years-old external circumstances challenge you to be more ambitious and to beclear about your objectives in life. During this time, you may take on more
responsibilities and you may begin to feel that you have sacrificed fun and adventure
for obligations and duties. Your lesson at this stage is to learn to appreciate the people
who support you and to be grateful for spontaneity adventures.
At 20-years-old external circumstances teach you to manage chaos more efficiently.
During this time, you may begin to discover that establishing organization leads tofeeling more in control. Your lesson at this stage is to learn that by helping others findtheir true purpose is in fact your own true purpose.

Astro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

Page 17

At 21-years-old external circumstances challenge you to be self-reliant and disciplined.
During this time, there may be a temptation for you to believe that you don’t needanyone to help you. Your lesson at this time is to work with others.
At 25-years-old external circumstances teach you to be very strong and resilient andyou put a lot of effort into maintaining the status quo. During this time, there may thetemptation to believe that the more you acquire, the more secure you will be. Yourlesson at this stage is to learn to let go of material goods.
At 29-years-old the planet Saturn comes full circle back to the position it inhabited atyour birth. This is called a ‘Saturn Return’ and is considered an important time. It isviewed as a milestone in personal development and it is likely you begin to feel thatyou have matured as you face up to increasing responsibilities. This Saturn Return canbe enormously productive if you have been consciously working on your goals andtargets. This is a time for reflecting on your progress on relationships. Who are thepeople who need you? Who do you rely on in times of difficulty? Use this time to takestock of your achievements.

Saturn is Sextile Midheaven

It is likely you like to feel you are being purposeful. It could be that you were expected
to take on a lot of family responsibility at a young age but it will be important for you
to remember you can’t (and shouldn’t) do everything. As you gain understanding of
early lessons, learn to say ‘no’ and mean it.

UranusThe planet Uranus is often associated with breaks for freedom, rebelliousness and theneed to form bonds with people outside of your own immediate family. Its first criticalpoint is at around the age of 13-14 years when the adolescent begins to understandthe need to grow away from their home to establish their lives as an individual. Thiscan be a very difficult time for both the parent and the child. The parent wants to keep
their child safe and protected from a world they know to be challenging and at times
unsafe. For the child, friends start to become a lot more interesting because being withfriends gives them an opportunity to explore their independence without their parents
hovering over them telling them what to do. This is the stage where communication
between parent and child becomes absolutely necessary but extremely strained.
Astrologers can use the technique of synastry to shed light on how this is working tohelp parents and children of this age to reach a balance of understanding.
Please do remember that as children are taught by age group, they will all likely havethe same Zodiac Sign for Uranus. As Uranus spends about 8 years in each Sign, it
could happen that siblings have different Zodiac Signs for Uranus, which is less likely
to be the case for Neptune and Pluto which have considerably longer orbits.

Uranus is in Aquarius

By nature, you are someone who needs to break the rules and create new ones thatallow for equity for all concerned. You are a revolutionary and it probably shows froma young age. This may be evident through your ability to manage high technologicalequipment, the way you manage groups of people effectively or just your tendency to
not except every day truths as facts.
At the age of 13-14, you begin yearning for a greater state of independence because
you feel so confined by convention. This is a tricky time for all children of your age but
it’s even more so for you because you are hard wired to take the road less travelled.
True independence never really comes: you will always have to compromise so try tolearn this lesson from a young age. Your parents and teachers will help safely guide
you towards independence you so desperately crave.

You tend to attract people who are eccentric or even undependable. Such people cancause chaos in your life but you like surprises even if it comes with the price tag ofcontinual upheaval.

Neptune

Although the planet Neptune does not have a critical point during adolescence,description by Zodiac Sign is provided here as a matter of interest to aid growth andunderstanding. Neptune spends about 13 years in each Sign.
Neptune is usually described to represent the imagination but it also represents theideals we hold and how we escape the reality of situations when we realise, we haveto sacrifice those ideals. Sometimes people turn to drugs or alcohol to do this but
there are other less harmful ways to get away from the bright lights of reality. Music isa very obvious choice: just watch how musicians lose awareness of their surroundings
when they are performing. Writing, poetry or painting are other obvious choices. The
key to managing Neptune is having a balance between reality and our fantasy world
where everything is perfect.

Neptune is in Aquarius

The outer planet Neptune spends about 13 years in each of the Zodiac Signs so it islikely parents will only have children with Neptune in only one or two signs. With
Neptune in Aquarius, as a child, you may hold some sort of ideal of revolution,
believing that the world can be changed through mass effort. You may channel yourenergies into organising or being a part of mass protest, believing that a united voice
will be heard over The Establishment. When confronted with the reality of privilege
and power, you may escape to a task that allows you to express your own sense ofrugged individualism as you search for another cause to fight for.

Neptune is Square Midheaven

It is important to let your aspirations flow, and for you to allow yourself plenty of time
for contemplation. If you push yourself too hard then you may risk developing badhabits that could then lead to serious forms of addiction. It is important for you to behonest about the things that bother you rather than trying to pretend they don’t exist.

Pluto

The planet Pluto does not have a critical point during adolescence, however;description by Zodiac Sign is provided here as a matter of interest. Pluto spends about
21 years in each Sign.
The power of Pluto is that is an uncompromising drive to get to the bottom of things
and then to either purge in order to regenerate or completely flatten whatever it has
found. It’s very intense and can be obsessional in its drive to bring about change andtransformation. As humans, we are taught to be fearful of such power but look at ourgardens. It’s what lies beneath the soil quite naturally.
Sometimes children ‘play’ with such power through sexual exploration or otheractivities that are considered to be taboo such as the occult or the kinds of games thatare stamped with ‘Strictly Over 18s Only’. Exposure to these sorts of activities are
something adults generally fight to keep away from their children. Thus, the adults areforced to use their own sense of power in what they may see as the Battle Between
Good and Evil. Pluto has a way of manipulating us to understand that one does nothave to dig very deeply to unleash power.

Pluto is in Sagittarius

The power of Sagittarius is usually found through the beliefs in religion or similar
philosophies. As a child you may ‘play’ with different spiritualities to uncover how theywork and how people react to them. This may involve saying inappropriate things at
inappropriate times just to see what might happen. Sending you to your room isAstro Gold Adolescent - Louise, Lady Windsor

unlikely to deter you but having well-rounded, frank discussions around selfresponsibility and regards for the feelings of others may help you to think twice about
how you are using your power.

ChironChiron, also known as the ‘Wounded Healer’, indicates the way we can heal otherpeople and yet be unable to heal ourselves. The wounds of Chiron run very deep andthey may manifest as habits we can’t break or the thing about ourselves that wewould most like to change.

Chiron is in Capricorn

The pain of Chiron in Capricorn can be linked to the feeling of not being successful
enough. To you, there is always more training, another promotion to achieve, a bigger
desk with a better view to occupy. You find it painful to admit that there could havebeen something you could have done that would have made you more respectable.
You inspire other people to work hard to achieve their dreams.

Conclusion“Even though you're growing up, you should never stop having fun”.
- Nina Dobrev
Adolescence is a state of change that everyone has to go through, but very few enjoy.
Added to the uncertainty of when the changes will stop or start is the expectation thatadolescents will somehow ‘get through it’ without any help or support. As a collectionsociety, we expect adolescents to be troublesome, full of raging hormones andunstable emotions. Quite frankly, we often give them the idea we don’t like them verymuch.
If we’re lucky, as adults, all we have are memories of a few embarrassing moments noone else noticed or can recall. If unlucky, we are left with the notion we are unforgiven
or emotionally damaged or we find ourselves in the continual process of trying to fix
up where we went wrong. By understanding how we have matured, we can resolve ourown past agonies and adjust our attitude towards our adolescence. When we
understand ourselves, we can help our own teenagers to understand and help
themselves to find the pulse of their own growth and development.
It is the author’s sincere wish that this report helps parents, caregivers, and teachers
understand the potential teenager’s problems and be ready with the support that isneeded. It is also hoped that this report gives the adolescent the tools to gain better
understanding, self-acceptance and perhaps also some self-love that helps during thisvulnerable stage of personal growth.
