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 Libra · house 11

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 7

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 11

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 12

    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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 9

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 10

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

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 5

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 10

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 1

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 4

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 4

    The sore spot you end up good at.

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 7

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.03°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Moon Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.13°

    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.

  3. Jupiter Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.31°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  4. Moon Mars · square, orb 0.51°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Uranus Chiron · opposition, orb 0.48°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  6. Jupiter AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.34°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
