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 Sagittarius · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 12
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 7 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 9
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 11
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 6
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 12 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.09°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.77°
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.
♀ Venus ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.95°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.74°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 1.25°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.36°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
