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 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 6
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.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 5
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 4 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
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.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 4 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 8
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.32°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
AC Ascendant △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.55°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.77°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 1.04°
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.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 1.64°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 1.57°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
