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 3
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 4
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 12
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 10 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Libra · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the part that operates without being watched.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.53°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.57°
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.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.71°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
⚷ Chiron ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.73°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 1.03°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
☉ Sun △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.39°
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.
