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 Capricorn · house 3
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2 ℞
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 what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 9 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 1
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 2
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 3
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 9
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.04°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☉ Sun ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 0.16°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.17°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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 ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.29°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♅ Uranus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.33°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.46°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
