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 Gemini · house 1
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 2
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 12
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 12
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 6
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 3
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.08°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.37°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.37°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♇ Pluto ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.12°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
☊ True Node ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.99°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.29°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
