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 Capricorn · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 6
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 4
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 2 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.69°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☍ ☽ Moon · opposition, orb 0.81°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♇ Pluto ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.98°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.14°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.51°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.77°
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.
