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 Libra · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 2
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 what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 12
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 4
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 11 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 11 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.03°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.32°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.04°
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 · square, orb 1.20°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
☿ Mercury ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.54°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 2.06°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
