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 Leo · house 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 9
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 10
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 5 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 9
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 3
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.07°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.35°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
☉ Sun △ ☽ Moon · trine, orb 0.77°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☊ True Node ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.02°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ ♂ Mars · opposition, orb 1.87°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 1.71°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
