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 Leo · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 11
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
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 Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the things done because they are wanted.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 7
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 3
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.07°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.16°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.53°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 0.54°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.47°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.69°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
