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 Sagittarius · house 7
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

☽ Moon in Libra · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 7 ℞
How you think, and how you say it.

♄ Saturn in Libra · house 5
The strict teacher you thank later.

In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 10
The urge to break something that still works.
