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 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ 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 by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 2 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
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
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 3 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.23°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ☍ ♃ Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.86°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.52°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.49°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.56°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.39°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
