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 Capricorn · house 11
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 12
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 11 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 11
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 12
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 4 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 11
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.08°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.10°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.31°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.45°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.34°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.13°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
