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 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 8
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 what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 1
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 how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.01°
The injury that becomes a competence 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 ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 0.09°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚸ Lilith ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.39°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.77°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.46°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.55°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
