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 Virgo · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 8
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 7 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 10 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 12 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 5
The sore spot you end up good at.

What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

The tightest aspects
