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 Capricorn · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 8 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 2
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 4
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 2
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 2
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♇ Pluto in Pisces · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 4
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.04°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.07°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.15°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
