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 11
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 11
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 11 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 10
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 5 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 1
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 8
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.19°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
☽ Moon ☍ ♃ Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.27°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.34°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.36°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.54°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☊ True Node ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.52°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
