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 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 10
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 11
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 wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 10
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 10
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the public record of a life.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 12
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 7 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 12
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
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.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
⚸ Lilith △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.00°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.18°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.19°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
☽ Moon ☍ ♀ Venus · opposition, orb 0.28°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near face each other across the chart.

♅ Uranus ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.18°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
