Page 5INTRODUCTION“Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.”- Anthony Brandt
Actor Michael J Fox once said that family was not an important thing, it was
everything! This is certainly true as we start out in life. Our families are our first
introduction to life, our first experience of this earthly world. So, they are indeed
important. Our first instincts are shaped by what we experience in the womb, and thenas we are birthed into this world, our relationship with our mother, father and then therest of the family. Families also come in all shapes and sizes – two-parent families,
single-parent families, blended families and so on. Decisions are made for us by family
members before we are born. Events occur in our parents’ lives before we are born.
These all affect our private emotional world and how we respond to the outer world.
Astrology can shed light on what these experiences are likely to be, how they shape us
and how we can move into adulthood and form our own healthy home and family life,
a private life that sustains our individual needs.
Children born into the same family can experience the family dynamics in different
ways, being sensitive to varying factors. For instance, one child may appreciate a fieryparent, while another might cower in fear. One child may appreciate, even flourish in,time alone, while another might crave togetherness. Children are also born intofamilies at different points in time, and thus have contrary experiences. For instance,
the first child may be born when the parents are just starting out, learning how to takecare of a little one and perhaps struggling financially. By the time that another child isborn parents are more settled emotionally and financially. The family has the same
parents, but the children have different stories.
This report is written by a professional astrologer and is meant as an introduction to
the concepts of astrology and how it affects you in the areas of home and family. It
provides insights into the experiences that shape you as a person, and how you
operate in your family. Some remain very close to family. Like Michael J Fox you
believe that “family is everything”. If this is you then your report is likely to be full ofplanetary action. Others may have more of a focus on the outside world, ready toleave the nest and experience adventure. If this is you then our family report is likely
to be shorter. Hopefully this report whets your appetite for more astrologicalinformation. If so, then you can access more detailed reports, or consult a qualified
astrologer for further insights.

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

The Moon

The Moon is the seat of our emotions. It indicates our experiences in the womb andour first feelings as we enter this world. As such it tells us much about our families oforigin and what we then seek in order to feel comfortable in our private lives as adults.
Part of our emotional journey is to learn to recognise our subconscious urges andexpress them in a positive manner. Our families are our first and most intimate
learning ground. Understanding the Moon in our Birth Charts helps us understand ourinner urges, our feelings, our instinctive wants and needs. We can then mature andform a family and home that is supportive of our unique needs. Our private world thensupports us as we move out into our public lives, expressing ourselves, forming
relationships and contributing to society through our chosen profession.

The Moon is in Gemini

When your Moon is in the lively Air Sign of Gemini then you are juggling your feelings
and thoughts from a young age. As a baby and child, you are likely to be restless,unless kept busy with activities. You may feel agitated at times and not know why.
Parents need to teach you how to express your emotions, and also how to direct any
restless energy into positive pastimes. Too much time on the internet may not be
conducive to good mental health. Teachers may comment on your constant need totalk, interact and be distracted, unless they find ways to engage your mind in asatisfying way. You are easily bored. While this is not the easiest placement of theMoon, it is one which indicates a curious nature, and a keen ability to co-ordinate handand eye movement. As such, you can excel in activities such as sports, chess, juggling
and comedy. You are a born comic, using this skill to entertain family members during
times of stress. You may also become adept at helping other people understand theirown emotional and mental health, as you learn about your own. As an adult, you seekan active family environment. You are happy to share your home with family andfriends, and to enjoy social interaction. You are likely to be irritable and moody whenbored, or if you feel hemmed in by responsibilities. Therefore, you need a home that isfunctional but not overly fussy or expensive. You are likely to enjoy a family of yourown, and also be open to catering for a blended or extended family environment. Youremotional super power is that you are flexible and adaptable.
Aspects to the Moon Astrologers also look at whether or not other planets aremaking harmonious aspects to your Moon, or if they are inharmonious. This tells youAstro Gold Family - Tina Turner

Page 7

whether or not you are easily able to fulfil your needs, whether or not your family life
is harmonious, and how you can rise to the challenges that may face you in yourprivate world. The Moon also reveals much about your emotional nature. The firstplace that emotions are experienced is in your childhood home and family. Therefore,
these astrological aspects also reveal much about your feelings as a child, and what
you learnt growing up in your household. Understanding various emotions can help
you function better as an adult.

Moon is Opposite Sun

The Sun and the Moon are inharmonious in your Birth Chart. This means that you may
have experienced some discord in your early family life. Perhaps your mother andfather disagreed on how children should be raised, or maybe they simply did not getalong harmoniously. Your basic needs may have been met, but the atmosphere in yourhousehold meant that you often felt tense, unable to get your emotional needs met.
As you mature, you may be eager to leave your family home as soon as possible,
striking out on your own path. One of your life lessons is to not only leave behind any
strife and upset of the past, but to also ensure that you strike the right balance in youradult life. If you decide to have a family of your own, then you need to choose apartner who supports both your personal and life goals, and to ensure that you aresympatico when it comes to parenting techniques. If your Moon is in a Fire or Air Sign
– Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius – then you are more likely to express
your feelings. If your Moon is in an Earth or Water Sign – Taurus, Cancer, Virgo,
Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces – then you are more likely to suppress your emotions.
Bodily symptoms, such as stomach aches, can be a sign that you need an outlet forany pent-up feelings.

Moon is Opposite Mercury

Experts talk about IQs and EQs. When the emotional Moon combines with theintellectual Mercury then you are likely to have a high EQ. Your intuition is sharp, andyou are able to communicate effectively. Your family life is lively, with you at thecentre of most conversations. When you are not chatting with loved ones, then you
are likely to be reading, writing, watching, or travelling around the neighbourhood.
Your only challenge is whether or not you are bored. Boredom is not your friend. If
you are bored, then you could fret or get up to mischief. Therefore, you need plenty ofstimulating projects at home. You may enjoy the idea of two homes. For instance, one
in the city and one in the country, or perhaps a city and beachside dwelling or maybe
even a caravan or camper van. You enjoy a change of scenery and could encourageothers in your family to come along for the ride. If your Moon is in an Earth or Water
Sign – Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces – then you are more likely to
be introverted, enjoying quiet but intimate projects at home. If your Moon is in a Fireor Air Sign – Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius – then you are more likely
to be extroverted seeking stimulating activities away from your home.

Moon is Square Mars

People who get close to you see a different side of your nature. This is because yourloved ones see the strong emotions that stir inside of you, which are sparked because
the emotional Moon combines with the fiery Mars in your Birth Chart. Positively
speaking, your feelings are stirred by strong protective instincts, projects that ignite
your passion and issues that stir your beliefs. The planet Mars gives you the ability tofight for your own and other people’s basic needs. You are at your best when
campaigning for other people’s rights, protecting the vulnerable or those down on theirluck. As long as your feelings are being expressed in positive ways, all is well. If you
suppress your own needs and wants then it is likely to be a different story. Likewise, if
someone upsets you then it can spark strong emotion. It is as if you have a switch
inside you, when it turns on then you instantly react and the result may be volcanic. In
other words, you have a temper and those closest to you know all about it. You couldAstro Gold Family - Tina Turner

Page 8enjoy sporting activities as an outlet to any pent-up emotions. Household projects
could also be satisfying. Your energy and vitality can inspire others, as long as you letthem join in on their own terms. Your emotions are more likely to be expressive if your
Moon is in a Fire or Air Sign – Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius. If your
Moon is in an Earth or Water Sign – Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces –then you are more likely to suppress your feelings.

Page 9YOUR SIBLINGS“To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know eachother as we always were, we know each other’s hearts, we share private family jokes.
We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys”.
- Clara Ortega
A sibling relationship is a key family relationship. It is likely to be the most enduring
relationship of our life, outlasting the lives of our parents. Siblings have an impact on
our early childhood, and family home, and continue to influence our lives as adults.
Modern day families come in all shapes and sizes. When it comes to blended families,
the relationship with a sibling can be the one stable bond as children move from one
parent’s home to another. Siblings, or the lack of a sibling, shapes our history and ourcharacter, to a far greater extent than perhaps is recognised. Therefore, this Family
Report includes a section outlining what our Birth Charts tell us about our needs whenit comes to our brothers and sisters, and the extent to which these relationships affectour family life. Much of this also depends on what position we hold in the family. For
instance, the eldest child has a different role to play than the youngest. The family
situation can change, sometimes dramatically, in the years between the birth of eachchild. Some are considered “lucky” to be born into a relatively smooth family
landscape, while others may be born into times of tension. As children, we ride thewaves of these family changes, with our siblings. However, the sibling relationship iscomplex and intense, full of extreme displays of frustration and resentment, but also
intimacy and love. Our challenge, as adults, is to recognise and accept the intense
emotions, both negative and positive, and to fight to form a bond with our siblings,
whether related by blood or by family ties.

Ruler of 3rd House is Venus...and 3rd House Cusp is in Libra

Every Birth Chart has a Planet related to each of the 12 House Cusps, and each House
Cusp has a meaning. The 3rd House is connected to early childhood learning, siblings,
your first journeys out of the family home and to connections to neighbours. In yourcase, Venus is the ruler of the 3rd House of your Birth Chart, meaning that your earlychildhood is filled with loving relationships with your siblings. In some cases, this canmean that you are the beloved only child, however; if you have siblings then you arelikely to enjoy favour with them and the rest of the family. The word “favourite” may
be bandied around, particularly if you have other positive astrological influences. You
are charming and can be quite persuasive when you have made up your mind aboutsomething. You are also likely to be a child who asks for equality when it comes toyour siblings. You want everyone to be treated fairly, and equally. When this is notpossible then you may feel out of sorts, ready to push for equilibrium. You are equally
likely to argue on your sibling’s behalf, as much as for your own benefit. You are likely
to be a “people person” interested not only in the affairs of your siblings but also inAstro Gold Family - Tina Turner

Page 10the lives of others who come into your orbit. You like to connect with your loved ones
in a harmonious manner, enjoying social occasions and other activities that link you
with siblings, neighbours, friends and ultimately your primary partner.

YOUR FAMILY ENVIRONMENT“The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are andnot be questioned”.
- Maya Angelou
Rulers of the 4th House give you vital information about the family environment inwhich you are raised, and therefore what you are likely to incorporate into your home
life as an adult. For instance, your Sun may be shining its rays on the family sector ofyour Birth Chart. Your Sun Sign plays an important role in your Birth Chart andtherefore your life. This is how you shine in the world. And so, it is important to see
which area captures the light of the Sun, and therefore where you focus on the most.
For instance, is your Sun shining brightly in the career sector of your Birth Chart, or in
the marital section, etc? This report is focused on home and family. So, in this section
you will see your Sun Sign highlighted if it is also connected with the 4th House ofyour Birth Chart, which is connected with your private life. This emphasises your bondwith your home and family. If your Sun is not connected, then you will see whichplanet is most linked to those who share your living quarters, those people and theplaces that you call family and home.

YOUR FAMILY’S NATURE“He is happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home”.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
This section is about the Planets that reside in the sector of your Birth Chart mostclosely associated with your private life. Planets in the 4th House of your Birth Chart
indicate that your home and family life are emphasised throughout your life. As you
have already realised, it is not only the planets in the 4th House that are significant,but other planetary influences. Different people learn through varying ways, and havecontrasting interests. One person may be much more career focussed than another. It
doesn’t mean that this person has no home, but rather than he or she learns morewhen out in the working world. This report focuses on the private section of your BirthChart, home and family. If you have planets in this section then you are very muchembedded in your private life, and in a family environment. If you have many planetsin this sector of your Birth Chart then your family is most likely the most important
motivating force in your life. The family patterns that were at play when you wereyoung are likely to be some of the major lessons in your life.
Contrarily, it is possible to have no planets in your 4th House. This does not mean thatyou have no family. Rather it means that other areas of your life are highlighted. No
one section of a Birth Chart is completely empty. Previous sections of this report havehighlighted the role that family and your home play in your life, and you can focus on
these. You may also realise that while your family is important, it is not the be all andend all. For some people being born into a family doesn’t automatically make themmore important than other people. Some people rail against family patterns from ayoung age, and therefore experience other areas of life much more profoundly.
So, if you have planets in this section of the report, you may learn much about thenature of your family, the role that you play and what does or doesn’t enhance yourability to express your authentic self. However, the absence of planets in this section
may also give you some clear indications of what is or is not a major influence in yourlife.

The Sun is in the 4th House

Family life is vital when your Sun is in the 4th House of your Birth Chart. This is where
you really shine. Others might want to make their mark on the world through theircareer, or partnerships, or self-propelled projects. However, to you family is the key
arena. As a child you are likely to be a main player in your family. What does thismean? Perhaps you were the first-born in a generation. Alternatively, you could have

Astro Gold Family - Tina Turner

Page 13been the one who was closest to the head of the family, most likely your father orsomeone on his side of the family. Either way, you grow in confidence, knowing thatyou have the support of your family. Wherever you go as an adult you enjoy making
your living quarters homely. This could be through fixing things if you are handy withyour hands, or perhaps through decorating if you are artistic. The nature of your focus
on your home is linked to the Zodiac Sign of your Sun. If your Sun Sign is Taurus,
Virgo, or Capricorn then you are more likely to be practical, making functional
improvements to your home. If your Sun Sign is Aries, Leo or Sagittarius then yourhome may be more spacious and colourful. You are house proud. If your Sun Sign isGemini then your home may be messier than most, with creative projects in various
corners of the house. If your Sun Sign is Libra or Aquarius then your home is likely to
be stylish, more conventional for Libra and somewhat avant-garde for Aquarius. If
your Sun Sign is Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces you’re your home is a haven. It’s likely to
be cosy, inviting and warm. Traditional astrologers say that the 4th House is an
Angular and therefore successful sector of a Birth Chart. This means that you canreally shine throughout your life when you focus on your private life. You can build astrong foundation which supports you throughout your life.

The Sun is in the 4th House...and Sun is Conjunct Mercury

Communication is important to you, and this starts at home. As a youngster you werelikely to be very talkative, and perhaps also intelligent. Preferably, you needed
attention from those nearest and dearest. In other words, you needed to feel aconnection. Otherwise you could be found with your head buried in a book, or in an
activity connected to technology. If your Sun is in an Air or Fire Sign – Gemini, Aries,
Libra, Leo, Aquarius, Sagittarius – then you are more likely to be chatty andintellectually- oriented. If you Sun is in an Earth or Water Sign – Taurus, Cancer, Virgo,
Scorpio, Capricorn, Pisces – then you are more likely to be practical, wanting morehands-on experience. Your eagerness to relate to others continues into your adult life.
You don’t like to be bored, and your household reflects this trait. If you live on yourown then you are likely to have a collection of books, or debris from various hobbies,
or perhaps several unfinished odd jobs. If you share your home with others, then you
enjoy daily routines that enable you to bond with your housemates. The word “busy” is
one that applies to your home and family, and this is the way that you like it.

The Sun is in the 4th House...and Sun is Square Mars

You've probably heard the saying, "Can't live with them, can't live without them." Youmay have used it once or twice when you've had enough of a family member's antics.
And there are plenty of antics in your family. The planet Mars is a lively one, and his
influence certainly sparks up your home life. In some cases, this can mean that there
is one family member who makes his presence known. This could be a female relative,
but it is more likely to be a male. It’s possible that one of your family members has aforceful personality. Or perhaps, your father is in the army, police forces or some suchprofession, and this affects your early life. On the other hand, it could be you who
enjoys action in your home. If this is the case then a home gym could be beneficial.
The combination of the Sun and Mars can be a positive combination if you enjoy anactive and lively household. The trick is to avoid unnecessary conflict, and to put astop to any negative behaviour.

The Sun is in the 4th House...and Sun is Trine JupiterJovial Jupiter is joining with your Sun Sign to give you a boost in life. Your earlychildhood home is likely to be a happy one which then gives you a positive boost for
adulthood. You enjoy a positive relationship with family members, particularly yourfather and any grandfather. Your family life is likely to be happy and lively. You mayAstro Gold Family - Tina Turner

Page 14

have a large family, or a house that is surrounded by a lot of space, land or water. You
may also enjoy having extended family members living nearby. Certainly, relatives andfriends are likely to visit your home contributing to the vivacious atmosphere. When
Jupiter and the Sun combine then lady luck is on your side. The luck influences allareas of your life, but is particularly noticeable during childhood within your home andfamily. Later in life it may extend to not only your own adult home and family, but also
to your ownership of property. You may enjoy owning your own spacious home, andperhaps also developing a property portfolio. You have the ability to work with others
to gain rewards, and may inherit property from your family as well. Fortunately, youhave the wisdom to know when to curtail any excess lifestyle indulgences, and whento enjoy and be grateful for your blessings.

The Sun is in the 4th House...and Sun is Trine Pluto

Generally speaking, your Sun in combination with powerful Pluto, indicates an intensityof personality. You are likely to receive a strong reaction from people who come into
your orbit. Some may find you dazzling, impressed with your passion and ability to“get things done”. Others may find you a bit too intense, too overpowering. As a child,
you may have difficulty coping with other people’s reactions, particularly those of yourimmediate family members. Your relationship with your father is likely to be asignificant one, either powerfully positive or glaringly negative. Either way, your lesson
is to learn all about “power”. “Power” is defined as the “ability to do or act; capabilityof doing or accomplishing something.”] However, it is also important to learn thevarious ways of accomplishing something. For instance, coercing others to act inagreement with you is a mis-use of power, whereas, leading others in a positive
manner is acceptable. Your family is your learning ground. Relationships with yourparents, but also with your siblings, are how you learn to direct your passion in cooperation with others. You also need to find an outlet for any pent-up energy. This
could range from a home office that provides an outlet away from other family
members, or a gardening project that enables you to dig deep in both the soil andyour own psyche, to Communal living that gives you opportunities to learn from othersfrom different walks of life. It is also important that you examine your own fears,
particularly any that come about as a result of your early childhood family
environment. Negative think and destructive behaviour need to be transmuted into
something more positive. You may enjoy “flipping” houses, channelling creative energy
into renovating and improving dwelling places.

Mercury is in the 4th House

You have a natural curiosity about your family. As a child, you may share your homewith family members from different generations, or perhaps you just have a lot ofvisitors. You enjoy knowing that all is well within your family home, but you also enjoy
exploring the neighbourhood. You need plenty of activity in your home. Projects,
games and people enrich your early life, as well as your adult one. When you areyoung it is possible that your siblings, or the advent of a sibling, is life-changing insome way. You are closely connected to any siblings, particularly younger ones. As anadult, your family connections change once you move out of your childhood home.
This is, of course, true for most people, but you are likely to go exploring in the world
and move away from your home. You are curious, and need to explore different places
and ways of setting up your own home. You may move around before settling. You
may also own two homes at any one time. For instance, you may have a country
escape and a city dwelling, or a couple of investment properties. Alternatively, you
may enjoy working from home, setting up your own special office. Whether you settle
near or far from your childhood home, you do maintain links to your relatives, sending
cards, making phone calls, and occasionally visiting. You love to chat to your loved
ones, finding out all of the latest news, gossip and stories. It is also possible that you
enjoy researching your family history.

Conclusion”Families are like branches on a tree – we grow in different directions yet our roots
remain as one.”- Unknown
This report has been written to shed light your family patterns, and your own needs inyour private life. Understanding your family history and their patterns of interaction
may help you to identify ways that family communication can be improved. It can also
help you understand and accept much about your own nature. Self-acceptance can bea big step forward in living a more satisfactory life.
No matter how loving and strong individual family members try to be, there areusually upsets and patterns that affect the individual members. As adults it isimportant to come to terms with the past, the effects of early family life, and to move
forward to form a firm foundation. Hopefully this report can help in the process. The
aim is to help individuals come to terms with the conditions that affected childhood, tosee how and why these conditions have affected life as an adult, and consequently tohelp in the process of acceptance and unconditional love.
Astrology has the power to shed light on many aspects of life, showing how each of us
differs in the same way that no snowflake or star is alike. Families are like clusters ofindividuals, where we learn to accept and love, both ourselves and our relatives. If we
can thrive in a family environment then we can thrive in the world. We can accept that
we are individuals and loved as such. Family life is not always as simple as this,because each individual has different challenges. Nevertheless, an understanding of
the challenges can be healing, and help us move forward. That’s the objective of thisreport. To help in that process.
