Interpreting Your Score
Points scored in the first column refer to first stage, points in the second column to second stage and in the third column represent the third stage of your Sun sign’s development. It is normal to have some points in each column. You can determine your stage by the column that contains the most points.
A large concentration in one column with very few points in the other two columns generally indicates a pure first, second or third-stage individual.
If you have very few points in one column but many points in the other two you are likely to be in the transition between the two stages so indicated. For example, if you scored most of your points in the second and third column with very few in the first column you are in the second/third-stage transition. Many points concentrated in the first and second columns indicates a first/second-stage individual, while most of the points concentrated in the first and third columns tells us that you are likely to be in the first/third-stage transition.
If you think that you are in third stage but your score indicates that you are in the second/third-stage transition this may be because the second/third-stage transition produces such dramatic changes in an individual’s personality and life circumstances over such a short period of time. Therefore I would recommend that those who score the majority of their points in the second and third columns should re-calculate their score after omitting the answers referring to childhood and family of origin (questions 12 through 15). If the new result strongly emphasizes the third stage this will likely indicate that you have passed through the second/third-stage transition in this lifetime and are now in third stage.
If you scored more or less evenly in all three columns, you are at the crossroads and in the process of deciding whether you wish to enter the first/second-stage transition or the first/third-stage transition. Working with the book Portrait of the Soul should help you to make the most suitable choices for yourself at this important soul turning point.
