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 4
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 3 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 5
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 12
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.28°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.27°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.55°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.77°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
AC Ascendant △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.83°
The face a life presents before it says anything 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 ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.10°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
