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 Sagittarius · house 10
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 10
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 11
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 7
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♇ Pluto in Aquarius · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 1 ℞
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 how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.76°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.98°
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.
♆ Neptune △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.99°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.37°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
⚷ Chiron △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.09°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.82°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
