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 Capricorn · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 2 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 11
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 10
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 1
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 10
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the public record of a life.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.05°
The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.46°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.33°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚸ Lilith ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.44°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
♄ Saturn ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.50°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.77°
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.
