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 Libra · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 6
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 12 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.05°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.32°
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.
♂ Mars ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.37°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
⚷ Chiron ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.36°
The injury that becomes a competence 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.
♂ Mars ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.73°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.70°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
