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 Taurus · house 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 10
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 9 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 4 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 2 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 9
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 2 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
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 modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 8
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 11
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.15°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.26°
The injury that becomes a competence 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 ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.77°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☿ Mercury ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 0.99°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.84°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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 · conjunction, orb 2.37°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
