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 Virgo · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 9

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 5

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

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Capricorn · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Chiron · square, orb 0.54°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  2. Jupiter Pluto · opposition, orb 1.00°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Mars Neptune · trine, orb 0.98°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  4. Sun Lilith · trine, orb 1.50°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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

  5. Moon Lilith · square, orb 1.61°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  6. Venus AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.55°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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