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 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 12
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 8 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 5
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 1
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.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
⚸ Lilith ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.00°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.21°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.62°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.80°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♇ Pluto △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.89°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.83°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
