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 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 4
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 10 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 5
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♇ 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 Aquarius · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.08°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.96°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♂ Mars △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.93°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☍ ♀ Venus · opposition, orb 1.19°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.60°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 2.15°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
