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 Capricorn · house 1
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 10
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 4 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 2
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 5 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.59°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.62°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.81°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♀ Venus · sextile, orb 0.83°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.76°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 1.64°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
