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 2
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.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 11
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 7 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 3
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the daily traffic of information.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 3
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 4
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Pisces · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 5 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.13°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☊ True Node ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.18°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♇ Pluto △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.31°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.39°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.76°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☿ Mercury △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.90°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
