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 Aquarius · house 8

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 1

    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 how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 7

    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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 9

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

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 9

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 10

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  7. 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.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 1

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 5

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 3

    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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 10

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 7

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 12

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.35°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  2. Mercury Uranus · opposition, orb 0.67°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Mars Chiron · sextile, orb 0.51°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.45°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Mercury · opposition, orb 1.10°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  6. Chiron AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.96°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
