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 Capricorn · house 6
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 9
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 7
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Libra · house 4
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.28°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.45°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
☽ Moon △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.64°
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.
♆ Neptune ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.79°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 1.49°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.24°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
