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 Taurus · house 10
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 10
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 10 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ 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 Capricorn · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 9
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 3 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 4 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 11
Where the edges go soft.

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 asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 10 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 1
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.06°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.21°

Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 0.69°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
