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 Leo · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 6
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 daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 9 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 8 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 11 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Aquarius · house 9 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Aries · house 11 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 3
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.17°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
⚷ Chiron △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.17°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.76°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.42°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.96°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.61°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
