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 Gemini · house 7
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 8
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 6
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 10 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 11 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.

⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 8
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.46°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 1.30°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.83°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
⚷ Chiron △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.08°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.40°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 1.16°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
