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 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

☿ Mercury in Pisces · house 8 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 8
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 1 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 6
The urge to break something that still works.

♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 4 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

The tightest aspects
