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 Virgo · house 6
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 5
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 2
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 7 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the things done because they are wanted.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 0.07°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.50°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.86°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 1.10°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.60°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 2.41°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
