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 Cancer · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ 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 Cancer · house 1
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♅ 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.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 10
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 8 ℞
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 what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.04°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.40°
The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.30°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.88°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.17°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.43°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
