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 Virgo · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 5
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 4 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 5
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 11 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the part that operates without being watched.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.20°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.60°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.94°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.40°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 2.03°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
☽ Moon △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 2.23°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
