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 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 7
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 1 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 4 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 1
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In bearing and first impression.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.65°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.29°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon △ ♀ Venus · trine, orb 1.74°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 2.03°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 2.11°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚷ Chiron ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.36°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
