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 Cancer · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 5
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 2 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 7
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 3
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 3
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the daily traffic of information.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.21°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.27°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 0.49°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.01°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.74°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.23°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
