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 Cancer · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 1
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 4
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.

⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.

In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.16°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.06°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 1.41°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 1.06°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 1.12°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.74°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
