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 Cancer · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  2. Moon in Leo · house 7

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

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 6

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

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Aries · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 8

    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.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

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

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Pluto · opposition, orb 0.21°

    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.

  2. Uranus Neptune · trine, orb 0.16°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  3. Saturn Pluto · square, orb 0.24°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.

  4. Mars Saturn · square, orb 0.44°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Mercury MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.86°

    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.

  6. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.88°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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