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 Cancer · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 12 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 2
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 2
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 10
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 10
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the public record of a life.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 4 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 2
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
