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 8
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.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 10
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 9
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 12 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 10
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 2 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 8
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.26°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.84°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.13°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.04°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 1.45°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
