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 9
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ 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.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 9 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 1 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 11
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 10
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 3 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 12
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.34°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
⚷ Chiron ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.29°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 2.04°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 1.95°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 1.76°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 2.67°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
