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 Taurus · house 4
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 3 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 4
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 8
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 5
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.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 6
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 2
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.03°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.20°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ◻ ☿ Mercury · square, orb 0.78°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.64°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.83°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.91°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
