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 Sagittarius · house 9
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ 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 Capricorn · house 10
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 9
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 4 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 6
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 daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 8
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 2 ℞
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 what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
