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 Taurus · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 12
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 4
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 11
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.56°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
⚷ Chiron ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.55°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.93°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.97°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 1.17°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.60°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
