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 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 12
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 4
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 9 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.87°
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.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.91°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.53°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.90°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☊ True Node ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 1.56°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.27°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
