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.

  1. Sun in Leo · house 8

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 3

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 8

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 7

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 8

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 5

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 5

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 5

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 9

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    Where things are held in common, and where they end.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 9

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 7

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 3

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Jupiter · square, orb 0.07°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  2. Neptune Chiron · sextile, orb 0.12°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. True Node MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.39°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.

  4. Mars Saturn · square, orb 0.87°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  5. Jupiter Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.94°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Mars True Node · sextile, orb 0.82°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
