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 Virgo · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 4

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 2

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

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

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 6

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Chiron · square, orb 0.67°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  2. Moon Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.88°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Mercury MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.86°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Venus True Node · sextile, orb 0.80°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  5. Mars Saturn · sextile, orb 0.91°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  6. Moon Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.57°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
