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 Pisces · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Pisces · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 2
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 9 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 4
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 2
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.34°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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 ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.61°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.93°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
☊ True Node ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 1.49°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 2.42°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚷ Chiron △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 2.04°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
