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 Leo · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  2. 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.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Gemini · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 5

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn True Node · opposition, orb 0.10°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Jupiter Chiron · trine, orb 0.30°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  3. Saturn Uranus · sextile, orb 0.22°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Uranus True Node · trine, orb 0.32°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  5. Pluto Lilith · sextile, orb 0.25°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Neptune AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.48°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
