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 Pisces · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 5
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 5
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 9 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 9
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 8 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.36°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.49°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.44°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.00°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 1.53°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 2.10°
The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
