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 Scorpio · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 8
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 9 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 1
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.31°
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.
♄ Saturn △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.40°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.60°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

♄ Saturn ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.27°
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.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.63°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
