A
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 Sagittarius · house 3
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 3 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the daily traffic of information.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 3
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 11 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 8
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.24°
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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.46°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.46°
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.
♂ Mars ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.77°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.91°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.
☿ Mercury ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.14°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
