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 Aries · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 10
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 12
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 8 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
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 indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 5
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the public record of a life.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.04°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.56°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.72°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.76°
The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.76°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 1.27°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
