   • Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are all depicted with rather complex symbols. Uranus looks like an upside down female symbol with four lines, two on each side, curved in opposite directions and facing outwards. Neptune is like an upside-down cross with two arrow lines on either side, in a circular upward direction. Pluto looks like a combination of Neptune and Uranus. It is represented by the symbol of the female pointing upwards, with two curves pointing upwards in circles.

   Interpret your planets and zodiac signs. To read the astrological chart correctly, you will need to take into account where the planets will appear. Which planets will appear in the House and under which Zodiac? All of these will give you insight into your personality and life.
   • Planets represent your actions, or what you like and what inspires you. The house represents the method, the habit of completing the assigned work. Bows represent what aspect of your life you can expect to change or develop in certain things.
   • Let's say you have Uranus and Aries in the Fourth House. Uranus represents the ability to learn and develop. Aries represents ambition, passion and strong emotions. The fourth home represents home, family and property. This means you will experience stronger feelings of personal relationships, and a tendency to learn and develop primarily through family. You will likely spend more affection and introversion when dealing with family affairs.
