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 Virgo · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 12 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 10
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 2
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 6
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 8 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.01°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.26°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.62°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.66°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 1.20°
The drive to be someone in particular and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.27°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
