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 Scorpio · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 3 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
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 Aquarius · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 11 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 10 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, 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.
The tightest aspects
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.12°
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.
☉ Sun △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.22°
The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.63°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.82°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 1.25°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
