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 · house 7

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

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  2. Moon in Leo · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 7

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

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.38°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

  2. Moon Mercury · sextile, orb 0.90°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Sun True Node · square, orb 1.22°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  4. Saturn Lilith · sextile, orb 0.77°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Saturn Chiron · square, orb 1.24°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  6. Moon Jupiter · opposition, orb 1.83°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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