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 11
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 10 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 4 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the things done because they are wanted.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 4 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 11
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 11
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.16°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.22°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.55°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.58°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.73°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.45°
The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
