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 Capricorn · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 10

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 11

    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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the daily traffic of information.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Saturn · trine, orb 0.05°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Mars Pluto · trine, orb 0.10°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  3. Mars AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.50°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  4. Moon Uranus · square, orb 0.62°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  5. Venus True Node · square, orb 0.60°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  6. Moon AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.58°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
