Page 5INTRODUCTION

This report has been written to introduce you to the concepts of astrology and how to
get started with your natal chart. Astrology is a complex and meaningful science whichtakes years to study and apply successfully; however, we would like to whet yourappetite with this report, and encourage you to deepen your understanding throughother means.
Astrology is a study of the connection between planets and life on earth. It is based ona concept that energy patterns form between other planets and earth; and that theseenergies affect our lives as individuals and communities.
An astrological chart, also known as a Horoscope, natal chart, or Birth Chart, records
the relationship between the planets and the Signs of the Zodiac. Charts can becalculated for the birth of a person, a community, an event or anything that seems
momentous. The Horoscope is as individual and unique as a fingerprint.
When using these interpretations, please bear in mind that, inevitably, every chart willcontain some contradictory influences, and as a result certain interpretation ofdifferent items in the same chart may seem difficult to reconcile. However, this may
still be an accurate reflection of your chart, as it is likely that you do experience
conflicting desires, events and circumstances in your life. Usually, it is the
responsibility of an astrologer to synthesise these apparent contradictions in order topresent a cohesive and meaningful interpretation of the dilemmas of the chart.
Please also be aware of the fact that each person has positive and negative influencesin the chart, and therefore in their lives. The challenge is to accept and overcome thenegative influences, so that we can successfully focus on the positive traits. This reportoutlines both influences, and therefore parts may be difficult to accept. Any advice
given is meant to be an aid to a person taking responsibility for their own lives. The
ultimate decision rests with each individual. The author and publisher accept noliability for any adverse effects of this report.

LIFE GOALS

If you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it;Every arrow that flies feels the attraction of earth.
Longfellow, Elegiac Verse 1880.

The SunJust as the Sun is the centre of the earth's Solar System, so does the Sun play a vitalrole in your life on earth. Your life goals are linked to your Sun - its Zodiac Sign and its
position in your chart. Contrary to popular belief, the Sun isn't the only planet to beconsidered in a person's chart, but it is an important component. The Sun gives you
an indication of how you can shine in your life. You will feel truly alive when you're
living the traits indicated by your Sun. Therefore, it's likely that you will spend much ofyour life on a journey to self-discovery, aiming to incorporate these traits into your life.
Understanding the energy of your Sun is a good starting point to understanding
yourself and your purpose in life.

The Sun is in the 1st HouseYour Sun is in the 1st House of your Birth Chart meaning that self-expression is an
important aspect of your life, because you believe strongly in the rights of theindividual. This is because it's so important for you to have the freedom to explore
your own personal interests and make your own way in the world. Some might callyou arrogant and selfish; however, you're equally determined that others should also
have the ability to express themselves. You learn most through your own experiences,rather than relying on the advice of others. You may not realise it, but you also makea strong impression on those around you. They see you as assertive and independent,
whether you feel it or not. Of course, this does depend on other influences in yourChart. You're frank and confident, proud and independent, and can be combative if
you're opposed. You like to take the initiative and have the ability to focus on yourown goals and methods of doing things, rather than adhering to popular opinion. For
these reasons you're likely to be thrust into leadership roles, giving you theopportunity to fully express yourself.
The Sun in the 1st House means that the Sun is Rising as you are born. In ancient
times the Sun was considered particularly strong when in the angular 1st House of aChart, highlighting your ability to live a hale and hearty life with plenty of energy toensure that you make an impact on your environment. It is seen as a good omen andmeans that you're likely to succeed in your ambitions, and perhaps in rising above
your station in life. The more self-motivated that you can be leads to the moreindividual success that you can achieve.

The Sun is in Leo

Your Sun is in the Zodiac Sign of Leo indicating that you're good-hearted, and have aAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 7sunny personality which shines in the company of others. In fact, you love an
audience, basking in the attention which comes with being centre stage. This does notnecessarily mean that you want a public audience. Perhaps other influences in your
Birth Chart indicated a more private personality, however; you do want to be theleading lady or man in your own life. Most of the time you do manage to attract theattention that you so keenly seek, as your enthusiasm and sense of fun has acontagious effect lighting a spark of fun and joy in those around you. Your generous
nature also means that you're willing to share your abundant goodwill with others. You
may also find yourself surrounded by children ready to join your playful games, foryou're adept at bringing out the child in everyone. You're quick to admire theachievements of others and yet also expect others to admire your feats. It is here thatyou need to watch your step. There is always the chance that you will go over the top
in your expectations, focussing excessively on yourself to the exclusion of others.
Other people may not always be so keen to step aside and let you take centre stage.
This can lead to some fiery exchanges in which you're forced to learn the lesson of
humility. This is an important lesson, which if avoided can result in you hiding behind
your pride. "Pride comes before a fall" could be a timely reminder. However,astrologically the Sun is said to be in its own rulership in Leo, emphasising the positive
aspects of this placement. So on the whole your irrepressible sunny nature is close to
the surface ready to delight another audience and radiate warmth to all who come incontact with you.

Sun is Conjunct Mercury

independent thinker. You can be relied on to give your opinion if others ask for advice.
You're studious, learning new subjects with ease, and are particularly adept in thescientific and mathematical fields. If the intellect is not your forte, then hand and eye
co-ordination is likely to be. You are a great juggler, either literally or with the ability
to multi-task. You need to be wary of seeking stimulation at all costs, with the end
result meaning that you fail to complete a task. You could be the proverbial "Jack or
Jill of all trades, master/mistress of none". However, if you develop your ability tomake choices and master some skills then you are dexterous and able to achieve
whatever you set your mind to.

Jupiter

you are likely to succeed. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, abundance and wisdom.

Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
But yet in love he sought me,
And on his shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.
Hymn, The King of love my Shepherd is 1868.

The Moon

Modern day astrology has popularised the Sun. Many people know their Sun Sign andidentify with its attributes. In ancient times the Moon took precedence. And certainly,
Chinese astrologers place a strong emphasis on the Moon.
Astrologers from different schools of thought allocate varying meanings to the Moon ina Birth Chart. Ancient astrologers say that the Moon changes its nature according to
its phases, and merely passes on impressions from other planets rather than directly
influencing a person's life. However, modern astrologers tell us that the Moon depicts aperson's roots, our home and family. They say the Moon also shows our habitualnature or subconscious patterns of behaviour which stand in the way of achieving ourlife goals. While the Moon can show us our strengths, it can also depict ourweaknesses which need to be overcome in order to be successful in life.
Suffice it to say, the Moon is the seat of our emotions, whether these change or staythe same. The Moon tells us much about our basic responses or reactions through our
feelings. And feelings are one of the primary, if not the primary, way in which weconnect with those around us, and the environment.

The Moon is in the 3rd House

The Moon is placed in the 3rd House of your Birth Chart suggesting that you've astrong need to communicate with other people and to keep up with all of the latest
news. It doesn't matter if it's the latest gossip about a celebrity or a complex andchallenging subject. You have an inquisitive mind and your main aim is to keep up withall that is going on and to expose yourself to new ideas and subjects. You also have aretentive memory and the ability to converse on just about any topic, pulling bits andpieces of information from the recesses of your mind. You also like to express yourown ideas to as many people as possible – the more the merrier. The ancientastrologers considered the Moon rejoiced in the 3rd House, which was also considered
to be the home of the Goddess. Therefore, you are likely to enjoy an irreverent
attitude to life. This could be through rebellion, speaking out for causes that stir youremotions or perhaps a wicked sense of fun. Your sense of humour can help you, andothers, through many a tricky situation. With this placement of the Moon, you may
enjoy acting, writing, singing, comedy, or public speaking. It is important that you
express yourself, whether in your private or public life. This is your life and you needto your voice. Short journeys and changes of environment also appeal giving you more

Astro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 10

food for thought and satisfying your curiosity. In some cases, your thirst for new andstimulating activities may result in unfinished accomplishments, because you simply
can't keep up with everything in your life. Peace of mind may not come easily to you,because you always seem to have so much on your mind. Relatives may be a help or ahindrance in this respect, depending on how emotionally charged your family dynamics
tend to be. Nevertheless, your need for communication, storytelling and connectingwith your loved ones is likely to see you right.

The Moon is in Libra

With the Moon in the sign of Libra you love and appreciate beauty, and would prefer toshare this appreciation with your loved ones. Not for you sitting alone on a hillside
watching the hues of the sunset. You want your loved one close by your side. This
enjoyment of others' company plays a major role in your life, and you may have somedifficulty spending time on your own. However, you'll find that you've a goodunderstanding of relationships and what makes them work, and what makes them fail.
You also have an innate ability to please others, to create harmony, and to enjoy social
occasions. You may find that you enjoy organising social functions. You're a peoplewatcher, enjoying noticing what makes them tick. You need to remember though thatspending time by yourself and doing things for yourself is important. For you're likely
to have creative talents which need developing. This could range from literally artistic
talents, to the ability to create beautiful surroundings such as interior decorating or
flower arranging.

Moon is Conjunct Jupiter

The Moon is making a positive aspect to the beneficial planet Jupiter in your BirthChart suggesting that you enjoy your home and family life. This is a favourable aspectfor health, wealth and family life. Depending on other influences in your Birth Chart
you're likely to enjoy good fortune with your home, and any property investments. It's
possible that you've a large family, enjoying connections with close and extended
family members. You've a generous and expansive nature and an easy-going,
philosophical approach to life. This makes your home a very hospitable environment.
You enjoy catering for friends and family in your home, and may live in a large homeor in spacious surroundings. Your optimistic view on life means that you're usually
rewarded with many visitors. Family relationships are favourable, particularly with thewomen. It's likely that your good fortune has been influenced by your positive
relationship with your mother, or an important female member of your family. You
have fond memories of a warm and loving mother and want to share your good
fortune with others. Perhaps there's a benevolent matriarch in the family tree. In somecases it's possible that your childhood relationship with your mother wasn't a positive
experience. In this case you may be determined, as an adult, to be everything thatyour mother wasn't. Either way you are likely to benefit through your relationships
with family members. You may also benefit through shared religious or spiritualbeliefs.

Moon is Conjunct Saturn

Much of your adult life has been spent trying to overcome the difficulties that you
faced as a child in your home and family. Astrologically speaking this is because theplanet Saturn is contacting the Moon in your Birth Chart. Ancient astrologers believedthat the planet Saturn had a negative influence in a person's chart. In your case yourearly home life has been adversely affected. The extent of this effect depends largely
on other influences in your chart. In some cases it can mean that your childhood homelacked spontaneity and warmth, but was well-organised and structured in a manner
which helped you to feel supported and safe. However, it's more likely thatcircumstances in your family led to you feeling that home was a cold and unsupportive
environment. This could have been one painful incident such as the loss of a family
member, or it could have been the result of years of hardship. It's possible that one ofAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 11

your parents, perhaps your mother, was a strict and severe influence, unable to show
you the affection that you felt you deserved. As a result it's likely that you're
somewhat shy as an adult, lacking in self-confidence and sensitive to criticism. You
may be emotionally reserved. Perhaps you decide to live in solitude rather than risk
the lack of affection and warmth that you felt as a child. As you grow older, you'relikely to become more confident in your personal relationships. You learn about
personal relationships through life experience, and your loved ones also become moremature. As a result your relationships with other people become more stable andsatisfying as you grow older. You also develop an inner self-confidence which helps you
build firm foundations in your life and achieve your ambitions, as well as loving family
relationships. You work solidly to build yourself a secure and firm footing, earning therespect of those around you. You can succeed in business and in your career,
particularly through being noticed by your superiors. You may also benefit throughinvestments in land and property.

Moon is Square MarsThe Moon is making a difficult aspect to the planet Mars in your chart indicating thatarguments and emotional disputes abound in your home life. These upsets could becaused by another member of your family, but it's more likely that you're quicktempered and intolerant around your loved ones. Your intentions are good, but you've
difficulty containing your anger in certain situations. At times you feel as though
you've been unfairly misjudged and this adds fuel to your already well-lit fire.
Unfortunately your impatience and irritability can result in periods of lonelinessbecause others would rather leave you alone than bear the brunt of your bad moods.
You may also find that your loved ones are angry at your attitude or it could be thatthey simply find it impossible to relax in your company, which is a problem if theywant peace and quiet at home. You need to find an outlet for your nervous tension.
For instance, letting off steam in sports or activities that demand high energy orconcentration will help. Finding an absorbing project which can be based in your home
could also prove beneficial. You certainly have plenty of energy and this could bedirected into new enterprises or working around the house.

Moon is Opposite Midheaven

Most people are influenced by their home and family, however, you are particularly
sensitive to the ebb and flow of family life. As a young child you enjoy spending timein your home, relating to those who share your household as well as extended family
members. If you grow up in a warm and supportive family environment then you arelikely to enjoy an equally happy household as an adult. If you suffer at the hands ofyour family then your journey may be rockier. At some stage you are likely to break
away, determined to create a sense of security in your own home. You may start afamily of your own with the view of developing a warm and safe household. Safety andsecurity at home are vital factors for your health and happiness. You need a safe
haven. Your home does not necessarily need to be a large mansion, but you do needto feel comfortable. You are likely to be a force to be reckoned with in your family life.
Other family members may come and go, but you are the one likely to be a guiding
hand and a comfort for family members. You may be the keeper of family memories
with photographic displays, books, and stories to tell. The family history fascinates
you, perhaps even compelling you to research and record facts and stories. Once you
feel settled in your family life and home, then you are able to make your way in theworld, choose your career path. However, family life is likely to continue to be apriority.

Jupiter is Opposite Midheaven

The planet of Kings is in a significant position in your Birth Chart, suggesting that theGods are smiling on your home and family. These are two areas of your life thatprovide much satisfaction and pleasure. You put a lot of time and effort into your

Astro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 12home, making sure that everything runs smoothly and that all is comfortable andattractive. Home decoration may be something for which you've a special talent. You
may express this in your private life by decorating your own home, or perhaps choose
a profession that helps you express this talent. It's likely that your home or property islarge and expansive, providing you with a sense of well being. If not then perhaps youlive in a wide-open space or near the ocean. You like to be able to escape the petty
details of daily life by relaxing in or around your home. Whether your home is large ornot, there's a sense of expansiveness which can be enjoyed by all. It's not only thebuilding, which is important, but also your loved ones. You like to know that they are
comfortable and well cared for. Your immediate family may be quite large, or perhaps
you have a large extended family. Depending on other aspects of your Birth Chart,
you're likely to gain property through investment or inheritances. Ancient astrologers
believe that the planet Jupiter has a beneficial effect in a person's Birth Chart. They
also believe that it's in a favourable position in the angular fourth house. This meansthat you're likely to be successful in achieving your goals and live to a comfortable oldage.

Saturn is Opposite Midheaven

The serious planet Saturn is in a significant position in your Birth Chart suggesting thatfamily responsibilities need to be attended to before you can succeed in the publicworld. This can mean that some serious childhood matters need to be faced and dealt
with before you can move forward on your own life's journey. Perhaps these matters
are connected to your father, or your father's family. Your early family life may nothave been as supportive as you would have liked, resulting in you feeling a lack of a
firm footing. In some cases it could be that your family life was generally secure butthat your parents moved house, forcing you to begin again in a new environment andcreating a sense of insecurity. While some children adapt well to new homes andneighbourhoods, you had difficulty coping with the changes. As you grow and mature
you find that you've to come to terms with these early difficulties. Gradually you learn
how to build up a solid foundation that suits you and your home life becomes a solidbase for you and you are ready to branch out and secure a future through yourprofession, or through marriage and a family of your own. The ancient prophets
believed that this was a highly significant placement for the planet Saturn andtherefore you are likely to have learnt some valuable lessons. Perhaps you realise that
there is no point in holding on to the past but rather to focus on the foundations of thepresent moment.

Page 13EDUCATION AND COMMUNICATION

There is no such whetstone, to sharpen a good wit
and encourage a will to learning, as is praise.
Roger Ascham, The Schoolmaster 1570.

and enquiring mind, you are constantly seeking information and data about the world
around you. You are curious, wanting to discover new things about the world, and thiscan take you to some very interesting places, both in your local neighbourhood andfurther abroad. "Curiosity killed the cat" is the old saying. However, you would bequick to add the often forgotten ending to the saying, "satisfaction brought him back"!
You've a keen intellect and don't like to be bored, otherwise you can feel quite
restless. You are fond of books, whether they be considered true literature or just a
fun-filled novel. Resource books and cross-word puzzles also hold a strong appeal. You
also enjoy studying new subjects, and may have literary talents. While other people
may enjoy a quiet and unchanging routine, you prefer the stimulation of changing
circumstances. You are resourceful and adaptable. These abilities can also stand you ingood stead in the business world, where adaptability and resourcefulness can equate
business acumen.

sometimes to a somewhat reluctant audience. Mostly others enjoy listening to yourcreative story-telling talents, and find themselves enthralled by your lively
communication. You may even find yourself on the stage during some time in your life.
You do like the sound of our own voice. And why not? You're proud of your learning
abilities, and believe in the saying that learning is fun. Your enthusiasm can becontagious. You can be creative in your thought process, and have an appreciation of
the arts. You can also enjoy conversing with children. While it's true that you're an
enthusiastic communicator, it's also true that your mind often turns to thoughts ofyour own ambitions. You're confident in your ability to communicate with others, andknow that this trait could push you into a leadership role.

At times you're vague,lacking concentration and resolution. It's possible that you've spent many hours daydreaming, lost in a world of thoughts and ideas which seem to have amounted to very
little. This is partly because you lack the ability to make decisions, doubting your own
abilities and relying too heavily on the influence of other people. It could also be a
result of your lack of self-control. On a positive note other influences in your chart, or
the development of self-discipline, can help you achieve your dreams. If this is thecase then you're likely to express your thoughts in an artistic or creative manner. This
could be through art, poetry, literature, story-telling, or music. It's possible that you
possess genius in one of these fields. You're also likely to excel in medical or spiritualcircles, where your heightened sensitivity to other people can be truly appreciated.
You're more likely to follow an unconventional, rather than orthodox, path if you
become involved in medicine. This is because you're attracted in psychic and spiritualphenomena. In fact you may possess psychic gifts. You may also enjoy reflectiveAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

periods near the water, or with nature.

RELATIONSHIPS

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love isn't love
Which alters when it alteration finds.
Shakespeare Sonnet 116.

Venus

The planet Venus tells us about love and relationships. It reveals the type of
relationship we value, and what we are seeking from our most intimate relationship,
as well as how we like to show our love. It answers questions such as, are we
attracted to strong, sensual and intense relationships? Or do we prefer some freedom
and independence? This planet also depicts how we like to relate to our environmentand other people, not just our primary partner, and how much importance we place onmoney and resources.

Venus is in the 3rd House

When the planet Venus is placed in the 3rd House of your Birth Chart communication
is an important component of any relationship. You're bright and optimistic enjoying
pleasant interchanges with other people in general, and with your siblings andrelatives specifically. Your relationship with your siblings is likely to play a major role inyour life. You like to fill your mind with pleasant thoughts rather than dwelling on
negative and disturbing ones. Therefore you enjoy social outings in pleasant company,
quiet moments with nature, attending the cinema or theatre, or reading anentertaining light novel. The arts such as theatre, opera, music, ballet, sculpture or art
probably appeal to your refined mind. You also find joy through travelling, whether it
be a short day trip or a longer tour or cruise. You're the type of person who enjoys
sight-seeing, chatting to fellow travellers and sending postcards home to loved ones.
You're a good correspondent, taking great pleasure in writing and receiving letters,
particularly on special occasions. You may even enjoy writing a novel or a factual bookthrough which you earn royalties. When not travelling you also enjoy your own
neighbourhood, and striking up convivial relationships with neighbours, and local shop
owners. Depending on other influences in your Birth Chart you're likely to enjoy
harmonious and beneficial relationships with your siblings, in particular your sisters.

Venus is in Virgo

With Venus in the Sign of Virgo you'll seek meaningful relationships with a practicalbasis. You may appear to be timid and shy to others, but you're simply wary, weighing
up the pros and cons before entering into intimate friendships or a meaningful
relationship. You approach your primary relationship with caution, preferring to takethings slowly so that you can build a lasting relationship based on real principles rather
than romantic illusion. It's not that you don't enjoy a little romance. It's simply thatyou prefer to know that a relationship is going to last in the long term. For theseAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 17

reasons you may suffer some disappointments in love, as others are discouraged byyour reticence, failing to recognise the depths of your affection. You admire neatness
and punctuality, preferring someone who is hard-working and healthy living likeyourself. You enjoy someone who can converse on sensible subjects, perhaps evenwith an analytical mind. You need to be wary of being too judgmental, expecting
perfection where it can't possibly exist.

Venus is Sextile Mars

The planets Venus and Mars are combining in your chart indicating that you seek astimulating and romantic relationship. You're charming and assertive, passionate andalive, and admire these qualities in a potential intimate partner. You love to share youradventures with your partner, and it's likely that your relationship will inspire both you
and your partner to explore new territory. You need only be wary of holding
unrealistically high expectations of your partner, as this can lead to difficulties. This is
more likely to be the case when you're young and idealistic. You're liable todisappointment, perhaps even angry feelings, when your partner fails to live up to
your expectations. You could also feel angry if rejected in love. Fortunately you've an
irrepressible side to your nature, on which you can rely in times of relationship trouble.
You're a loyal and fun-loving partner with an ability to balance intimacy withindependence.

MOTIVATION

Dimidium facti qui coepit habet: sapere aude.
To have begun is half the job: be bold and be sensible.
Horace, Epistles 65- 68BC.

Mars

Mars is the planet that tells us about our assertion and drive. It tells us what
motivates us and what desires drive us most powerfully. Are we ambitious for
professional power, or do we desire a meaningful relationship? Do we pursue ourdesires aggressively? Or do we sit back, lacking the confidence to achieve ourambitions? These are the types of questions answered by the qualities of the planet
Mars in our chart.

Mars is in the 12th House

With Mars placed in the 12th House of your Birth Chart at times you're uncertain of
the future, with vague fears of danger or treachery. If you voice these fears, thenothers may feel that you are suffering from paranoia. However, it's true that you cansuffer at the hands of secret enemies and that you would do well to avoid dangerous
situations. This placement of the planet Mars in your Birth Chart does indicate that
danger and treachery can feature in your life. It can also mean loss of reputation.
However, these can be avoided. You need to live your life with the utmost integrity,
avoiding all criminal elements of society. You also need to learn to follow yourinstincts, seeking seclusion when necessary and directing your energies into secretarts or meditation. You may also be called on to make sacrifices for other people atsome stage during your life. This could mean directing your energies into looking after
other people, in particular your spouse who could suffer from an illness.

Mars is in Cancer

The planet Mars in the Sign of Cancer indicates that you have powerful emotions which
can be used to protect and nurture your loved ones close to home, or to fight for a
cause further afield. You're not afraid to use your strength to battle against injusticeon other people's behalf. You can also be very protective of small or defencelessanimals. You can move mountains when your powerful emotions are channelled into a
positive cause; however, you need to be wary of misdirecting your energy andbecoming vengeful. You're so vehemently opposed to injustice that you can nurse illfeelings towards those you consider to be the perpetrators of wrong-doing. This canresult in outbursts of temper or plans for revenge. Although you're assertive, evenaggressive, when it comes to protecting the feelings and rights of others, you're likely
to retreat into your shell when personally hurt. You find it much more difficult to standup for your own personal rights than you do for others. Astrologically the planet Mars
is considered to be in a difficult position in the Sign of Cancer meaning that you could
have some difficulties directing your energies into positive pursuits.

Astro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 19

Mars is Square Jupiter

The planets Mars and Jupiter are combining in your chart indicating that when you areyoung your hasty judgement can sometimes land you in hot water. You've plenty ofmotivation to achieve your goals, but lack proper judgement and discernment so thatyou miscalculate the amount of time and energy needed. As a young person you need
to be less careless and impulsive, which can sometimes result in accidents which are a
result of you rushing around and trying to achieve too much. The motto "you're yourown worst enemy" could be one for you to reflect upon. Depending on other aspects inyour chart you're also excessive in your generosity. As you mature you need todevelop self-discipline. Otherwise your impulsiveness may be an impediment toreaching your goals. As you learn to balance your excess energy you can achievemuch. You're a lively and resourceful person, who delights in good health and keeping
busy. Any course of action is entered into with confidence and determination to
succeed, which you're likely to do despite the obstacles. You certainly know how to getyourself and other people motivated, and can make a good leader or manager. You
may be particularly keen to travel, enjoying the stimulation of visiting other venues.
You could direct your energy to achievement in sports, politics or travel. Once you
have learnt to manage your resources you can achieve many of your goals.

Mars is Sesquisquare Uranus

The unfavourable combination of the planets Mars and Uranus suggests that you're
often restless and unsettled in your life. On the one hand you seem to have plenty ofenergy and drive, but on the other you're not always sure what to do with thesequalities. Life also has a tendency to upset the very best of your plans through sudden
and often inexplicable events. This can be exciting or disturbing depending on otherinfluences in your chart. You're enthusiastic and highly self-motivated, if somewhat
impulsive, enjoying adventure and new horizons. You're full of good ideas, and once
you've determined on a course of action then you've plenty of motivation to see itthrough to successful completion. You're independent and prefer to be given plenty ofroom to carry through your own ideas in your own way. Be careful that a stubborn
streak in your nature doesn't prevent your overall success. It's likely that some of yourfriends think that you're a little odd or eccentric, but you're not overly concerned. You
like to make your own way in life, even if it does mean that you stand out from thecrowd. Full of paradoxes, you can be both arrogant or charming, which can make youan effective salesperson.

CAREER AND AMBITIONS

The road up and the road down are one and the same
Heraclitus, Die Fragmente der Vorsokratiker c540-480BC.

SaturnThe planet Saturn represents responsibility, boundaries and structure; structure thatprovides a positive framework within which we can build, or structure that limits ourdevelopment and forces us to reassess our liabilities and assets. This planet is also
linked with our ambitions, and how we approach the practical side of life. Saturn tells
us about the traditions that have stood the test of time. This planet often represents
the professional side of our lives, how we work to build what we need to survive.

Saturn is in the 3rd House

The planet Saturn placed in the 3rd House of your Birth Chart suggests that progress
through the school system can present difficulties early in your life, which linger to acertain degree as you mature. These troubles vary from having difficulty learning toread and write, to suffering from shyness or loneliness at school, to being forced tochange schools. As a result there may be a period of your life when you're prone tomelancholy. You may doubt your own intelligence, causing you to hesitate before
pursuing your education. Finally you realise that it's not lack of intelligence, but morea lack of confidence based on early childhood experiences. Once you learn to takeyourself seriously, you can pursue your education with confidence, working on study
and communication skills. You may even write and publish articles or books as part ofyour profession. Although the path to being taken seriously in connection with yourwriting isn't smooth, you can succeed through perseverance and hard work. You needto take care when planning short journeys, otherwise you're likely to experienceproblems and delays. While others seem to enjoy short trips, you always seem to be
travelling under some sort of cloud. On the other hand, depending on other aspects inyour chart, it may be that you enjoy travelling for business purposes only.

Saturn is in Libra

The planet Saturn in the Sign of Libra signifies that you're committed to both intimate
and business partners, and these relationships have a significant effect on your private
and professional life. In particular your primary partner or a close female friend islikely to play a profound role in your life. This can be positive or negative, perhaps
both. You've refined tastes and the ability to work towards being able to satisfy thesetastes, but it's the relationships in your life which are the most important influence.
These influences are likely to be positive, because the planet Saturn is considered to
be in a positive position in the Sign of Libra. However, it's also possible that you could
suffer loss as a result of key relationships. You've the ability to arbitrate and bring
together opposing parties, and this could help you rise above any difficulties. You could
also use these gifts in your profession, choosing a job in diplomatic circles or social

Astro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 21

work. You need only be wary of being too diplomatic. Sometimes it's important toexpress your own opinions in a forceful manner rather than try to please other people.
If you can overcome this tendency to excessive politeness then you're able to achieve
your ambitions through your liaisons with other people.

The Midheaven

The Midheaven is one of the important angles in a Birth Chart and is also known by
astrologers as the MC or Medium Coeli. This angle tells us of our public life, ourprofession and social status. In other words, how we are viewed by the public, how wewant to be viewed by the public and what type of profession we are likely to choose.
It's also important to note the house position of the ruling planet of your Midheaven
for further information about your career as this can greatly influence theinterpretation.

The Midheaven is in Aries

With a Midheaven in the Sign of Aries and ruled by the planet Mars, you're likely tochoose any career which gives you the freedom to follow your own path. You're aleader, rather than a follower, and prefer a profession which provides independence
and autonomy. In fact, you have difficulty settling into a job which doesn't give you
plenty of authority. You don't like to work with someone watching over your shoulder,preferring to go at your own pace. You may even have difficulty working in an office,where routine and schedules are the order of the day. You prefer to be on the road, or
to work your own hours. Assertion, power and initiative are keys to you succeeding inyour chosen career. Examples of famous people with the same Midheaven include
Hollywood actress Meryl Streep, Prince Charles of England, UK politician Neil Kinnock,and Australian opera singer June Bronhill.

CREATIVITY AND ORIGINALITY

The artist must be in his work as God is increation, invisible and all-powerful; onemust sense him everywhere but never see him.
Gustav Flaubert, Correspondence 1857-64.

UranusThe planet Uranus represents originality and unconventionality. This can be both theunusual and brilliant genius or the wilful rebel without a cause. This planet tells us theareas in which we break with convention, become innovative and experiment with newand exciting ways. In some circles of astrology Uranus represents the creative genius
which comes directly via our soul or higher self.

Uranus is in the 5th House

The planet Uranus is in the 5th House of your Birth Chart suggesting that you've
unusual, perhaps even unconventional creative abilities. This could be that your artistic
talents display quite an unusual sense of taste, or that you're creative in a morescientific or metaphysical sense. Either way you like to be original both in your hobbies
and your work. This placement also indicates unusual love affairs, and unconventional
relationships with children. Perhaps you're too busy pursuing your creative interests tohave time for children, or perhaps an unexpected event has prevented you fromhaving children. If you do have children of your own, then they are likely to be
independent, perhaps even unusual in some way. It's also possible that you and yourchildren enjoy daring recreational activities together. In some cases In some cases you
could experience a feeling of separation from your children. For example your children
may assert their independence and go off on their own for a period of time, and you
may find this emotionally painful and feel a sense of loss. On the other hand you may
enjoy the fact that you have a child or children who value their autonomy. Scandal islikely to be a part of your life if you indulge in your fascination for love affairs.
Gambling, or any kind of speculation, is also likely to be a rocky road, which is best
avoided.

Uranus is in Scorpio

The planet Uranus was in the Sign of Scorpio from 1975 - 1981. It's important to notethat Uranus spends a long time in each Sign, and therefore the interpretation applies
to a generation rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation you
need to look at the house position of Uranus in your chart. Uranus in the Sign of
Scorpio indicates that you belong to a generation which experiences highly-charged
emotions and transformation in their lives. This generation holds many innovativeideas about change, and will need to call on these in order to transform the way inwhich the world uses its resources. This is the generation which will tackle theproblems inherited from the past. It's likely that this generation will experience aAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 23

world-wide upheaval during their lifetime.

NeptuneNeptune is the planet of creativity and spirituality. It represents both the bliss ofspiritual attainment and the heights of creativity. This isn't personal spirituality andcreativity which comes at the expense of others, but gifts which can benefit humanity.
This planet also represents the confusion that can accompany the road to discovering
when we are being selfish, as opposed to when we are generously thinking of how ourgifts can benefit others.

Neptune is in the 5th House

The planet Neptune placed in the 5th House of your chart means that you've a strong
artistic nature, with an ability to be creative by using your intuition. However it's
possible that you may have to make sacrifices before you can be creative. These
sacrifices can be experienced in early childhood or as an adult, or both. For instance,
as a child you may long to go out and play with other children, but you suffer from adebilitating illness. As an adult you may long to be an artist, but first you've to care foran ailing mother. This sense of sacrifice is also likely to be linked with children.
Perhaps you can't bear children of your own, or there are delays and frustrations.
You've a romantic and seductive side to your nature, which can attract beneficial ordeceitful lovers, depending on other aspects in your chart. These aspects will alsomean that you may be subject to deceit or benefits from speculative investments.

Neptune is in Sagittarius

The planet Neptune was in the Sign of Sagittarius from 1970 - 1984. It's important tonote that Neptune takes about 164 years to make a complete cycle, spending about
thirteen years in each Sign, and therefore the interpretation applies to a generation
rather than the individual. For a more individual interpretation you need to look at thehouse position of Neptune in your chart. Neptune in the Sign of Sagittarius indicatesthat you belong to a generation possessing the gift of spiritual vision. You'll be able tohelp humanity focus on spiritual goals and become more expansive and inclusive ofdiffering races and beliefs.

Neptune is Sextile Pluto

The planets Neptune and Pluto both move slowly through the Zodiac, and therefore
any connection between the two planets affects Birth Charts for a short period of time.
You were born in such a time. This combination in your chart means that you'reinterested in opportunities to bring about fundamental change to human values. You
are aware of injustices in society and, depending on other influences in your chart,
may prefer to fight against them rather than sit back and accept the ills of society.
Your creative urges may be linked to politics, or expressing your political views
through the arts or spiritual or charitable organisations.

CHALLENGES IN LIFE

The spirit of self-help is the root of all genuine growth in the individual.
Samuel Smiles, Self-Help 1859.

Pluto

The planet Pluto challenges us to transform our lives by clearing out our old habits tomake way for the new, more rewarding ways of living. The process isn't necessarily aneasy one, as most of us cling tenaciously to the comfort offered by habitual patterns,
and are rather scared of new paths. Pluto shows us in which areas of our lives we needto grow, and to a certain extent whether we're likely to find the process of growing
painful or joyful.

Pluto is in the 4th House

The planet Pluto is in the 4th House of your Birth Chart indicating that your homeenvironment may be a challenge. It's possible that you've been affected by earlychildhood traumas, either by one particularly disturbing event in your family life, or bya series of upheavals. Perhaps one of your parents was an overwhelming, powerful
figure in your life. As a result your adult home life is likely to reflect your childhood
problems. Perhaps you're constantly changing homes, or perhaps you simply struggle
to feel at peace in your home. You need to be careful that you don't recreate yourchildhood traumas in your home environment by living with someone who is abusive.
Your challenge is to assert your own rights within your family without resorting toaggression, or without becoming the victim of someone else's aggressive behaviour.

Pluto is in Libra

The planet Pluto was in the Sign of Libra from 1972 - 1984. It's important to note that
Pluto takes about 248 years to make a complete cycle, spending 12 - 32 years in eachSign, and therefore, the interpretation applies to a generation rather than theindividual. For a more individual interpretation you need to look at the house positionof Pluto in your chart. Pluto in the Sign of Libra suggests that you belong to a
generation concerned with global justice and transforming human relations. Your
generation possesses the ability to see the necessity for change in personal and global
relations.

ChironChiron is believed to be both an asteroid and a comet because it resides in theasteroid belt, but it also lights up every now and then like a comet. In astrology,
Chiron is known as ‘the wounded healer’, the point in a birth chart where a person
experiences early childhood hurts. These physical, emotional or mental hurts thenbecome part of a lifelong journey towards healing and connection.

Chiron is in the 11th HouseAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 25

When Chiron is in the 11th House of your Birth Chart you find it difficult to find yourplace in social settings. You feel like the odd one out. This starts from a young age. It
could be because you are different to your peers such as from a different culture. Or
the feelings could stem from a childhood wound. You may resort to humour as a wayof covering up your feelings of inadequacy. It’s better to be the class clown rather thanto be really seen for the quirky individual that you are. In other words, it’s better to becausing the laughter rather than the butt of it. Your healing journey is one of learning
to express your authentic self in a way that is acceptable by others, but more
importantly honours your own inner truth. You need to find a tribe of like-minded
individuals. You have much to teach others about how to respect and honour all
people. You may be gifted in the area of group work, anthropology, and social
sciences.

Page 26PURPOSE AND JOY

He who binds to himself a joy
Doth the winged life destroy
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in Eternity's sunrise
William Blake, MS Note-book.
A sense of purpose can help us overcome the most onerous difficulties in our lives, by
taking the focus away from our failings and problems, and shining the light on ourstrengths and talents. By concentrating on our purpose we can distract ourselves fromour troubles, and maintain the forward momentum of our lives. A sense of purpose
can also lead to feelings of happiness and joy. Ancient astrologers believed that aperson could either identify with their human body and human life, or could focus on a
spiritual life. A rewarding spiritual life can help ease human pain and suffering, andinject joy into every day life. A sense of purpose can assist the process of transferring
our identification from our human selves to the spiritual sides of our nature, and oneof the greatest gifts of astrology is to help us determine our purpose.

The North Node

The North Node and South Node form an axis in astrology, which is said to represent
one's destiny or spiritual quest in life. This axis is also linked with our purpose. The
North Node points to a key lesson in our lives. It represents new experiences towards
which we must aim during this life. We have already learnt the skills of its opposite
point, the South Node, in the past. Now we must grow and stretch ourselves throughthe North Node.

The North Node is in the 1st HouseYour North Node is in the 1st House and your South Node is in the 7th House of your
Birth Chart indicating a quest for identity. You need to leave behind habits of becoming
overly dependent on other people in order to become more independent. You're
destined to discover the balance between self-assertion and giving to others.

The North Node is in Leo

Your nodal axis has the North Node in Leo and the South Node in the Sign of Aquarius
denoting that you're destined to develop your inner strength. You may find that you
experience times of loneliness. These times are part of your lesson to forge your own
creative life in order to give generously to the world.

North Node is Conjunct Mercury

The North Node and the planet Mercury are combining to indicate that you're being
urged to develop your communication skills. Your destiny in this life may be linked tosome form of teaching or communication, with individuals or groups.

Astro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 27

North Node is Trine UranusYour destiny is linked with the discovery of new and exciting thoughts and concepts
because of the combination of the North Node and the planet Uranus. You need tomake sure that you do not seek excitement at all costs, but direct your energies
wisely. In this way you'll achieve your purpose, which is likely to be linked with making
a contribution to humanity.

South Node is Trine Moon

The South Node and the Moon are combining to suggest that you're particularly awareof the importance of emotions, and are being encouraged to use your knowledge in aconstructive way. However, there is a tendency for you to become stuck in negative
emotional patterns of relating to other people. In other words you have difficulty
expressing your emotions, and this may lead to periods of self-imposed isolation andneedless worry about the future. This also creates obstacles for you achieving yourpurpose in life. Your challenge is to forge ahead with your life without relying too
heavily on your emotions, and yet remaining responsive to other people.

South Node is Trine Jupiter

The South Node and the planet Jupiter are combining to suggest that you'll strike
problems if you take part in grandiose schemes which are not based on solid
groundwork. You're being challenged to develop your expansive ideas in a practicalmanner. Your quest is to work in a realistic and down-to-earth manner towards yourgoals.

South Node is Trine Saturn

The combination of the South Node and Saturn is a difficult one, indicating that you
face restrictions in your current life and struggle to express yourself. At times you may
feel that the world is a hard place, particularly the demands of daily life. It's possiblethat you've inherited some emotional or physical problems from your father, or his sideof the family, which restrict your ability to achieve your goals. These problems can beovercome, but it's only through hard work and shouldering your responsibilities thatyou're likely to achieve your purpose.

The Ascendant

The Ascendant, or Rising Sign as it's sometimes called, is a key to discovering our
purpose. Ancient astrologers believed that the Ascendant depicted our primary
motivation as individuals. Some believed that it was one of the links to discovering
what makes a person happy. When we're accomplishing our primary motivation then
we're happy. The more modern Esoteric astrologers believe that this sensitive chart
point reveals our soul's purpose. When we're carrying out our soul's purpose then
we're joyful. They believe that acceptance of our purpose, or fate, can help us achieve
success and satisfaction, and that meditation on the qualities of the Ascendant canhelp us focus on our life's purpose.

The Ascendant is in Cancer

The Sign of Cancer is considered "feminine" by Ancient astrologers suggesting thatyou're not a risk-taker, but are more likely to wait until you feel comfortable before
pursuing your purpose. You're also likely to depend on other people to take theinitiative. Cancer is also a Cardinal Sign denoting enterprise, enthusiasm, selfassertion and initiative.
Caring for others is your major purpose in life. This could be caring for your own family
and friends, extended family, pets, children or the elderly, or caring for humanity, or
all of these. You're impressionable, tenacious, hospitable, sympathetic and moody.
You've strong feelings, ranging from the most pure feelings of compassion to the mostintense feelings of hatred. On the positive side your life is motivated by the highest
form of feelings motivating you to care for other people, and bringing both you andAstro Gold Birth Chart - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

Page 28

the other parties a sense of warmth and emotional satisfaction. You are destined toprotect and nurture the vulnerable in society. First you need to learn to protect andnurture yourself, and then you are able to nurture young people (or vulnerable people
or animals) so that they can also achieve their true potential. However, on a negativenote first you have to come to terms with your own sensitive nature and gently realisethat you're highly impressionable and your feelings may be misguided. You're sensitiveand easily hurt, and can either build a protective wall if you feel vulnerable, or seek
revenge. You need to be wary of judging situations based purely on emotion, andensure that you're constantly working for the good of others. Cherish the best qualities
in yourself and others.

took a much more literal approach. They were very much concerned with the fortunesof an individual, whether a person would survive or not, and whether or not the person
would experience good or failing fortunes. The author's particular area of interest in
Esoteric astrology can be mainly detected in the section labelled "Purpose and Joy". In
Esoteric astrology the purpose of an individual is linked to the soul. In other words it isbelieved that our souls determine our sense of purpose in the world, motivating us to
