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 Cancer · house 3
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 2
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ 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 Leo · house 5
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 1
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 10
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.22°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.45°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♀ Venus ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.67°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.78°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.92°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 1.54°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
