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 Leo · house 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 9
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 10
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 8
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 7
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 2 ℞
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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.24°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.14°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.90°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.14°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.80°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.64°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
