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.

1. ☉ Sun in Capricorn · house 6

   The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

   In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

2. ☽ Moon in Libra · house 4

   The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

   At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

3. ☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 7

   The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

   In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

4. ♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 6

   What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

   In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

5. ♂ Mars in Pisces · house 9

   The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

   In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

6. ♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 4

   The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

   At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

7. ♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 10 ℞

   The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

   In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

   Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

8. ♅ Uranus in Libra · house 4

   The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

   At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

9. ♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 5

   The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

   In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

10. ♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 3 ℞

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

11. ☊ True Node in Pisces · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

12. ⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

13. ⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

The tightest aspects

1. ⚷ Chiron △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.10°

   The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

   Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

2. ♃ Jupiter ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.22°

   The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.

   The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

3. ☿ Mercury ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.26°

   The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

   Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

4. ♃ Jupiter ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.33°

   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.

5. ♄ Saturn ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.55°

   The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

   The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

6. ♆ Neptune △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.76°

   The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

   Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
