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.

  1. Sun in Sagittarius · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto Lilith · sextile, orb 0.19°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Mercury Uranus · trine, orb 0.46°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  3. Sun Mars · square, orb 0.70°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  4. Venus Saturn · square, orb 1.09°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Moon True Node · square, orb 1.26°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  6. Mercury Jupiter · square, orb 1.39°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
