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 Leo · house 3
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 4
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ 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 Capricorn · house 8 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 7 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 8 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 1
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 11
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.19°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.50°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.53°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.72°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 2.48°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 2.09°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
