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 Taurus · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 4
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 3 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 8
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 7
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 5
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 3 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 8
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.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.02°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.08°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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 ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.52°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.76°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
☊ True Node △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.98°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.90°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
