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.

  1. Sun in Cancer · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 7

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 3

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 1

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 7

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In the daily traffic of information.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.10°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Mars Saturn · square, orb 0.11°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  3. Venus True Node · conjunction, orb 0.36°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 0.30°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  5. Jupiter MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.40°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  6. Mercury Neptune · square, orb 0.60°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
