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 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 3
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.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 2
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 6
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 10 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 4
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
