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.

In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

♀ Venus in Leo · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.

♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.

The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.08°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

Neither can act without the other coming along.

What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
