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 Leo · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In bearing and first impression.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 12
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 4
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 3
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 11 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.18°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♇ Pluto △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.21°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.39°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.59°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.78°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.99°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
