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 Taurus · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 3
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 3
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 6 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Virgo · house 6
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.18°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.26°
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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.42°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.45°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.77°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 0.88°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
