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 Virgo · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 12 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the part that operates without being watched.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 4
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 11
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.20°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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 ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.20°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.40°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.39°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.41°
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.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.59°
The face a life presents before it says anything 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.
