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 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 7
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 4
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 9
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 2 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 7
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☊ 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 expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 3
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 9
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.02°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.10°

♃ Jupiter ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.23°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.53°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 1.34°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.37°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
