Ascendant Quincunx Pluto

You are too serious about your responsibilities to others. You act as if people have some hold over you and can force you to submit to their desires. You are concerned about negative conditions in your environment and volunteer your services to do something about them. This puts you in the mainstream of social activities, which may divert your attention from private affairs. Employment conditions are particularly important to you, and you feel the need to improve them if you can.

You know how to use your talents for earning a living. But you need to have some insurance against financial stress and may be interested in investment funds or retirement programs as a cushion against that possibility. You are an opinionated person and easily upset when the evidence forces you to admit that you are wrong. Your ideas are sound, but they lose their effectiveness when you try to force them on others. You want to be admired and recognized as a person of strong character, but smolder inside if your actions show otherwise or if someone succeeds in disclosing your weaknesses for all to see.

You are not always kind in your remarks about other people you consider unqualified to hold important positions over you. You tend to the opinion that they must have acquired their authority over you. You enjoy competition and secretly hope that some day you will have the opportunity to show what you can accomplish if given the authority.

In love, you should do everything you can to lesson your conscious need for control over your sexual expression, because the more you try to push yourself, the less successful you will be. This does not mean that you will not have conquests, for you certainly will, but using sexual conquest and achievement as a gauge of your personal power over someone else is counterproductive to real love and communication. Under such pressure the body is the first component to fail, and bodily spontaneity is essential to good love making. Trying to control your body for too long will only result in failure at some point, and possibly sexual dysfunction because of insecurity.

The reason behind your attempts at control is a strong need to achieve internal transformation through physical sexuality. It is quite possible to achieve that goal, but you must go about it by different methods. If power or domination must be expressed through the relationship, it should be done through fantasy role-playing in which you both are committed to what is happening. In that way the electricity and dynamism of both partners can flow together instead of in cross current. The result can be intense transcendence through the sexual experience, instead of a merely temporary respite from inner pressure.
