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
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
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 Pisces · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 1
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In bearing and first impression.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In bearing and first impression.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 9 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 6
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 4
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

♇ Pluto in Leo · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

☊ True Node in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.

⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 8 ℞

⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 11
What you refused, and what refuses back.

Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.42°
