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 Taurus · house 9
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 8
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 1 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 2 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.24°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.39°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.78°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.75°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 1.17°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.40°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
