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 Capricorn · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 9 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 8 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 3
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 9 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 5
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 4
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.02°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.56°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.74°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 1.35°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♄ Saturn ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 1.23°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.12°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
