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.
☉ Sun in Scorpio · house 1
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 10
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 3
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 10
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 6 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 8
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 6 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the public record of a life.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.85°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.96°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.55°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 1.96°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 2.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☊ True Node ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.40°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
