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 Virgo · house 8
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 4 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 5 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 8
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
♇ Pluto in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 2 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.18°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♀ Venus ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.29°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.27°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♀ Venus · sextile, orb 0.33°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚸ Lilith ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.41°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 2.24°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
