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.

  1. Sun in Pisces · house 9

    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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 6

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 9

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 10

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 5

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 2

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 7

    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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 1

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 10

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 11

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 10

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.

    In the public record of a life.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 2

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn True Node · trine, orb 0.06°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Pluto AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.09°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Venus Lilith · trine, orb 0.28°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  4. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 1.16°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  5. Sun Mercury · conjunction, orb 1.61°

    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.

  6. Moon Chiron · square, orb 2.02°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
