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.

  1. Sun in Aries · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 5

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    In the daily traffic of information.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  12. Chiron in Scorpio · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Pluto · trine, orb 0.58°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Mars Lilith · opposition, orb 0.65°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Venus Pluto · sextile, orb 0.48°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Moon Chiron · trine, orb 0.76°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  5. Uranus MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.66°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  6. Venus Neptune · trine, orb 0.87°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
