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 Gemini · house 10
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 11
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 9
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 12
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the part that operates without being watched.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.05°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♇ Pluto ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.06°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♅ Uranus ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.28°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon △ ♂ Mars · trine, orb 1.58°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 1.63°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 1.83°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
