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
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
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 Sagittarius · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 2 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 12
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 2
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 7 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 10 ℞
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 2
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the part that operates without being watched.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.39°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.48°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.69°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.68°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.90°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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 ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 1.10°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
