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 Leo · house 1

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 12

    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.

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 12

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  4. Venus in Libra · house 3

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 3

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 7

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 11

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 6

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 12

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 11

    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.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 8

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 8

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 9

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn Lilith · sextile, orb 0.13°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Venus Uranus · trine, orb 0.35°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  3. Lilith MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.61°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Neptune Lilith · square, orb 0.65°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Mars Pluto · square, orb 1.04°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  6. Saturn MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.73°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
