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 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 10
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 9 ℞
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.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 10
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3 ℞
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 9
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 1 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 2 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 4
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 7
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 2
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ♀ Venus · square, orb 0.05°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.42°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
☉ Sun ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 1.42°
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.
☉ Sun ◻ ☽ Moon · square, orb 1.38°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.40°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
