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 Virgo · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ 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 3
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ 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 by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 9 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 11
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 11 ℞
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.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 2
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 1
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In bearing and first impression.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 10
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.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.07°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.23°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.76°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.91°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 1.54°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.39°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
