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 Libra · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 3
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 7 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the part that operates without being watched.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.02°
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.
♃ Jupiter △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.03°

⚷ Chiron ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.08°

♂ Mars ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.06°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on face each other across the chart.
