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 Aries · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 4
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 10
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.57°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♇ Pluto △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.60°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.92°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 2.45°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 2.53°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 2.88°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
