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 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 8
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 4 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 4 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the daily traffic of information.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 9
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 8
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.30°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.39°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.35°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.52°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.19°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.76°
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.
