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 Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 4
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 2
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 8 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 9 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 3
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.20°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♄ Saturn ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.32°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 1.10°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 1.05°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.89°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.37°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
