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 Aquarius · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.

♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.

♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 9
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

♅ Uranus in Libra · house 2 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.

What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.17°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.37°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.60°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.73°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

☿ Mercury ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.84°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
