AAReading
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 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 11
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 5 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 12
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 3
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 12
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.03°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.16°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.22°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☊ True Node ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.94°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.94°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ☽ Moon · square, orb 1.27°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
