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 Capricorn · house 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 6 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 8
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 1
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 1 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 12
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.00°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.01°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.01°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.
♃ Jupiter △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.11°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.79°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.69°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
