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 Scorpio · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 4
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 7
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 2 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 9 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 7
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.01°
