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 Virgo · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 12 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
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.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the things done because they are wanted.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.06°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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 · trine, orb 0.23°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.31°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.17°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.27°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.50°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
