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 Pisces · house 10
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Pisces · house 10 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 8
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 2 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 4 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.17°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
⚷ Chiron △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.54°
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.
♀ Venus ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.78°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.74°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 2.37°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.39°
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.
