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 Scorpio · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 1
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 10
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 9 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 2
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the daily traffic of information.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 9
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.07°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon △ ♂ Mars · trine, orb 0.17°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.21°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♇ Pluto ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 0.58°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.52°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 1.36°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
