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 Gemini · house 7
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 2
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.

♇ Pluto in Libra · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 6 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.

In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 6
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 3
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.84°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♀ Venus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.69°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.84°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.68°
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 ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.75°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.26°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
