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 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 7
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 5
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 2
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 6 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 2
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 8 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.75°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♄ Saturn △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.67°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.97°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.87°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.70°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
