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 6
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 daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 6 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 9
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 9 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 4 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 3
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.21°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.18°

♄ Saturn ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 1.78°

Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.85°
