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 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 2 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ 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 Leo · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 9 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 3
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the daily traffic of information.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 10
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.02°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.12°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.39°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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 ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.44°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 2.62°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 2.44°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
