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 Gemini · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 2
What makes you feel safe.

☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 4
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 2
How you go after what you want.

In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 11
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 9 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.

In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 3
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 near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 10 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 9
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
