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.

  1. Sun in Sagittarius · house 4

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 11

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 5

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 6

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 4

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 3

    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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 4

    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.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 12

    The urge to break something that still works.

    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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 3

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 3

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 6

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 8

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Mars · trine, orb 0.05°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Sun Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.71°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Moon Lilith · trine, orb 1.00°

    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.

  4. Mars Lilith · trine, orb 0.95°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  5. Venus Neptune · square, orb 1.22°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  6. Mars MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.54°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
