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 Capricorn · house 7
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 7
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 11
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 11 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 4 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 4 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.27°
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.
☿ Mercury △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.76°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 1.13°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.80°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.57°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.03°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
