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 Cancer · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 11 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the part that operates without being watched.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.30°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♇ Pluto △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.53°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.08°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.50°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.79°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

☉ Sun ☍ ☽ Moon · opposition, orb 2.01°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
