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 Sagittarius · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Leo · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 2

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

  8. Uranus in Sagittarius · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  9. Neptune in Capricorn · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  10. Pluto in Scorpio · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Chiron · opposition, orb 0.12°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  2. Mercury Venus · conjunction, orb 0.57°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  3. Sun Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.81°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Venus Saturn · conjunction, orb 1.10°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Jupiter Chiron · trine, orb 0.93°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  6. Moon Mercury · square, orb 1.60°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on obstruct each other.

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