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 Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 1
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 6 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.15°
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.
☊ True Node ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.27°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 1.25°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.39°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.89°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 2.20°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
