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 Sagittarius · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 4
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 11 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.26°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.68°
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.
♅ Uranus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.53°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon △ ☿ Mercury · trine, orb 1.38°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.65°
