A
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 Capricorn · house 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 6
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 Capricorn · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 10
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 8
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 10
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 2 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 11
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 11
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 8
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.15°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 1.25°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.41°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 2.15°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.61°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.49°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
