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 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 8
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 6 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 1
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 7 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 9
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 1
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In bearing and first impression.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.22°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.14°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.69°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.92°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♆ Neptune △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.06°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 2.58°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
