Every planet has a radial orb of influence that interacts with any planet within close proximity. Planets within the same radial orb of influence, but not conjunct, apply their energy to each other through a variety of energy lines called aspects. Conjunctions aside, when aspects in a horoscope do not conjoin three or more planets into an aspect pattern, energy moves in a linear manner from singular point A to singular point B.

The compulsion to do and a deep, impatient drive to move forward, causes a 'Linear Motivated' person to take 'dynamic shifts' in their life direction. Tenacity harnesses self-control to single-minded purpose so their capacity to endure prolonged states of mental, and physical fatigue is astounding. Because they literally block out anything considered insignificant, they don't easily tolerate anyone disrupting their concentration. Nor is it likely that they will handle trivial interruptions with either finesse or grace. Even states of relaxation have the power to make them edgy, as reflexive urges incite these people to muster themselves to action. Perhaps, one could rightly say, 'they willingly toil a day away - but find it hard to stop and play'.

Failure is never an option a linear person considers as they strive, so when they're focused on an undertaking, an irresistible impulse to uncover one more detail or best a task, pulsates deep within and summons them onward, heedless of a need to rest. This is especially true if what they're doing electrifies their mind. While the possibility of health problems owing to mental and physical burnout, is a real and ever present danger, it's not the only issue of which they must become fully aware. Intimate relationships, not to mention children or pets if they have them, will suffer from their inability to put things aside and interact.

A person with linear motivation, gains recovery through alternating states of action. They don't require prolonged states of rest, but do need phases of renewal other than a normal sleep period. Sleep must be more than falling into bed when they've completely emptied their resources and their whole being is screaming rest now or collapse. When their stamina is running low, they need to stop before it gets depleted and put efforts on hold, even if this interrupts a train of thought. They must force themselves to keep energy usage within reasonable limits and learn to enjoy life's other pleasurable pastimes to release built-up stress. Then they must take the time to fully revitalize, so they can vigorously continue to gratify their uncontainable incentive to progress.

Therapists researching the use of color as a healing tool, suggest that certain shades of color can produce a predictable reaction within our psyches. In Huber Astrology we see color as signifying our unconscious impulses and when a color is missing from a chart it indicates a disproportional approach to life.

Red represents dynamic energy in motion. This active energy incites us to participate, preform and accomplish. Red energy is found in the Square and Opposition aspect and if there are none it's hard to get things started or become self-reliant.

Blue represents undynamic energy at rest. This passive energy urges us to maintain the status quo and heed our security needs. Blue energy is found in the Trine and Sextile aspect and without it we find it difficult to relax and enjoy our lives.

Green represents sensitive energy. Although this energy motivates us to learn and search for meaning it can also chafe us into an awareness of karmic issues in need of resolution. Without the Green energy found in Quincunxes and Semi-sextiles we tend to see life through a black and white perspective with little if any shades of gray.

A lack of a color in a profile gets compensated for by an over-abundance of another. For example the odds are good that an all red chart lean towards workacholisim. Red and Blue, works till it collapses and rests until inactivity leads again to frenzied activity and the cycle repeats. If Green is the predominant color there is an endless search for meaning. Answers to questions come but, those answers always seem to beget another set of unanswered questions.

Still, there is a solution because 'Energy always follows Thought'. It doesn't care if we want it or not so when we focus on it, we energize and experience it. The first step is bring the missing color or colors into awareness. To do this add Red, Blue or Green decor to your home and clothe yourself in the missing color(s). Jewelry with brilliant red, blue and green stones such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds, which need not be real can also be worn.

Through an act of willpower you can create dynamic energy by refusing to rely on others to an extreme extent. You can also let yourself go into sensitive energies through 'Transcendental Meditation', a method that teaches you to find your center through relaxation.
