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 Leo · house 5
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 1 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 4
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 12 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 5
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 12
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the part that operates without being watched.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.89°
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.
☿ Mercury △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.34°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.47°
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.
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.91°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 2.31°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
