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 Virgo · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 11
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 6 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 7
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 7
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 11 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 1 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 6
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 10 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.01°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.04°
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.
☉ Sun ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.54°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn 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 obstruct each other.

Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
