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 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 3
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.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 4
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 7
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 9 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.06°
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.

♅ Uranus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.22°

The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
