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 Taurus · house 4
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 8
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ 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 Cancer · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 11 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 5
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 3
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.41°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon △ ☿ Mercury · trine, orb 1.09°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 1.60°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.37°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.00°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚷ Chiron ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 1.05°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
