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 Libra · house 4
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 11
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 3
How you go after what you want.

♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 3

What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ♀ Venus · trine, orb 0.18°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.52°

The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.44°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.69°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
