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
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
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 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.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
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 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 12
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.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
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.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 11
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 11 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

☊ True Node in Libra · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 5
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
