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.

  1. Sun in Pisces · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 3

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.

    In the daily traffic of information.

  5. Mars in Aries · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 2

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  9. Neptune in Aquarius · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 4

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 8

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.25°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  2. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 1.87°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Moon Mercury · opposition, orb 1.95°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  4. Pluto Lilith · sextile, orb 1.17°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mercury Jupiter · sextile, orb 2.15°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Jupiter Saturn · conjunction, orb 3.22°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
