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 Libra · house 4
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 10
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 4
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 11 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 12 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☍ ☽ Moon · opposition, orb 0.02°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.10°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.21°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.17°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.38°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.55°
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.
