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 Capricorn · house 10
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 10
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 3 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 5 ℞
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 11
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 8
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 12
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.25°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.66°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

☿ Mercury △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 1.20°

Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.54°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.56°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
