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 Gemini · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 5
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.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 5
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 2
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 6
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Capricorn · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 12
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.02°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
⚷ Chiron ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.07°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.45°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.36°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.43°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 1.26°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
