AAReading
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 Aries · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 5
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 1 ℞
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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 8 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 2
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the things done because they are wanted.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.03°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.13°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.16°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.81°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.78°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.94°
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.
