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 Taurus · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 6 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 11
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 9 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 1
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.04°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ◻ ♀ Venus · square, orb 0.05°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.07°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.20°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.64°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.72°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
