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 Scorpio · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 4
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 12
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Libra · house 8 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.17°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.21°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♄ Saturn △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.40°
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.
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.49°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♂ Mars ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.77°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.70°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
