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 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 8
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 7
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 2 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 4
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.02°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.13°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.20°
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.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.77°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.99°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☽ Moon ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.01°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
