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 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 12 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 6 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 9 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.09°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.63°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☽ Moon ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.74°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.67°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.83°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.47°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
