CReading
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 Leo · house 6
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 8
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 2
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.06°
The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.61°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 1.08°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.64°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♂ Mars ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.68°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♇ Pluto △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.46°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
