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 12
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.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 11
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 1
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
♅ 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 Aries · house 6 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 5 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.17°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.75°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.78°

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.30°

The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☊ True Node ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.04°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
