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 Gemini · house 4
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 3
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.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 12 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 7
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.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 9 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
⚸ Lilith ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.03°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
♀ Venus ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.45°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♀ Venus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.47°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.50°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
