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 8
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.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 8
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 8
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ 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 Scorpio · house 9
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
Where things are held in common, and where they end.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 1 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 7
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 2 ℞
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 what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.41°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.94°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.63°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☍ ♂ Mars · opposition, orb 1.43°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♅ Uranus ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 1.06°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.13°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
