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 Sagittarius · house 3
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 3
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 near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 3 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the daily traffic of information.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 9 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 12
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 8 ℞
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 what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 0.12°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.27°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.36°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
♅ Uranus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.68°
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.
☉ Sun ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 1.10°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 1.22°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
