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 Capricorn · house 8
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 7
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 9
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 4 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.34°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
⚸ Lilith ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.74°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.32°

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