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 Aries · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 7
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 1
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 7 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 9 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 4
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 6
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.50°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.54°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.61°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.74°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.15°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.60°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
