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 Gemini · house 8
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 9
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

♀ Venus in Cancer · house 9 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 3 ℞

In the daily traffic of information.

☊ True Node in Pisces · house 6 ℞
