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 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 10
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 6 ℞
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.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 8
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 what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 11
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 9
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.07°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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 ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.33°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.50°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.47°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.43°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♆ Neptune △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.57°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
