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 Libra · house 4
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 10
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.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 4
How you think, and how you say it.

At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 4
How you go after what you want.

In the foundations, where the line comes from.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 2
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.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 4

Where the edges go soft.

In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
