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 Gemini · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 1
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 2
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 8 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 2
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 1
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 bearing and first impression.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 10 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 2
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.07°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.11°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
♅ Uranus ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 1.01°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 1.12°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.28°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
AC Ascendant △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.49°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
