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 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 8 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 1
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In bearing and first impression.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 3
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 9 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.02°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♅ Uranus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.07°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
♄ Saturn ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.58°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.61°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
⚷ Chiron ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.73°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.75°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
