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 Aries · house 9
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Pisces · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 9
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 7
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 11
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 4 ℞
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 3 ℞
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
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 daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
⚸ Lilith △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.03°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.77°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
