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 Aquarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Pisces · house 2 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 9 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.37°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.63°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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 ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 1.06°
The drive to be someone in particular and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.

The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
