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 Libra · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 9
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Pisces · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 5
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the things done because they are wanted.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 8 ℞
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 what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
