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

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    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 Libra · house 3

    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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 1

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 2

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 12

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  6. Jupiter in Gemini · house 11

    Where you want more room.

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 8

    The strict teacher you thank later.

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 5

    The urge to break something that still works.

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 11

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 12

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 6

    The sore spot you end up good at.

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 10

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon True Node · sextile, orb 0.91°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Venus Saturn · opposition, orb 1.28°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Moon Neptune · square, orb 1.64°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  4. True Node Chiron · opposition, orb 1.30°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Uranus MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.48°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  6. Moon Chiron · trine, orb 2.21°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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