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 Libra · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 5
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 8
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 4
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 11 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
The tightest aspects
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.17°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.22°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.02°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.23°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☿ Mercury △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.48°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ☿ Mercury · square, orb 1.83°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
