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 8
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 is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 8
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 8
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.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 9
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 9
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 10
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 4 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 11 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the public record of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.61°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.18°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 1.36°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 1.80°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 1.40°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♄ Saturn ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 2.02°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
