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 Gemini · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 12
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 4 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 12
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.17°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ◻ ☽ Moon · square, orb 0.57°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.69°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
⚷ Chiron △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.49°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.72°
The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
