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 Libra · house 5
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 9
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 4
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 5
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 1 ℞
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 how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 11 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 9 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 10 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.02°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.87°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.69°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.11°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.63°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 2.09°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
