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 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 11
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 10
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 7 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 10
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 8 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Virgo · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the public record of a life.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.30°
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.
⚷ Chiron ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.77°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.93°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.90°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.78°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.67°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
