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 Pisces · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 10
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.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 7 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 9
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 2 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 3
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 10 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 2 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 11 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 5
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 8
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.04°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.12°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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 ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.19°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
☿ Mercury △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.33°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚸ Lilith ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.21°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.35°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
