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 Leo · house 8
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
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 Virgo · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 7
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 6
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ 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.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
☊ 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 modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 8
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.03°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.08°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
☽ Moon △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.23°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.13°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.32°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.43°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
