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 Sagittarius · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 1

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 6

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

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

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  5. Mars in Leo · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. 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.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 12

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.05°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Moon Venus · opposition, orb 0.07°

    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.

  3. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.43°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  4. Sun Mars · trine, orb 1.85°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

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

  5. Uranus Chiron · trine, orb 1.77°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  6. Uranus Pluto · trine, orb 1.81°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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