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 Taurus · house 1
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 1
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In bearing and first impression.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 8 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 12
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3
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.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 1
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
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.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 12
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.59°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.57°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 1.41°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 2.19°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 2.02°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 2.17°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
