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 Taurus · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 1
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 1
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.39°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 0.77°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ ♂ Mars · opposition, orb 2.00°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.56°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 2.20°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 2.04°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
