Reading

Put together from what the tradition attributes to each body, sign and house — a portrait to enjoy, not a verdict. The positions beside it are the part that can be checked.

  1. Sun in Gemini

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

  2. Moon in Scorpio

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

  3. Mercury in Gemini

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

  4. Venus in Leo

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

  5. Mars in Virgo

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

  6. Jupiter in Libra

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Pisces

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aquarius

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Aries

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

  11. True Node in Pisces

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Neptune · opposition, orb 0.04°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Chiron Lilith · trine, orb 0.33°

    The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  3. Sun Lilith · trine, orb 1.48°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  4. Sun Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.81°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Mars · square, orb 2.24°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  6. Moon Lilith · conjunction, orb 3.93°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.
