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 3
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 8 ℞
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 is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 12
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 8 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.42°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.29°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 1.39°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.72°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 1.39°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 2.01°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
