Alfred Poell (painter)
AAReading
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 4
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 4 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 8
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 8
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 4
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.03°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.15°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.56°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.33°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.48°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.42°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
