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 Sagittarius · house 8
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 11
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 11
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 4 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
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 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.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.08°
The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.46°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon △ ☿ Mercury · trine, orb 0.45°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on run together easily.

⚷ Chiron ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.47°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.69°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
☽ Moon ◻ ♀ Venus · square, orb 0.91°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
