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 Cancer · house 6
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 6 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 8
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 9
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.07°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.10°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 0.39°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.01°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.95°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.94°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
