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 Scorpio · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 8 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 9
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 7 ℞
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.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 4 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 4
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 3
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 2
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.02°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.06°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.08°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.21°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
☉ Sun △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.29°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.27°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
