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 Aries · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 8 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 12
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 7 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 4
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.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 6 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.35°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.99°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.25°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 1.66°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♇ Pluto ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 2.08°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 1.57°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
