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 Capricorn · house 11
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 10
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 7
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 5 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 7
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 6 ℞
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 daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Libra · house 7
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.32°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.66°
The drive to be someone in particular 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 ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.83°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 1.05°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.35°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.48°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
