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 Leo · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 1 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 1
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.10°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.46°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.75°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 1.21°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.48°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 1.51°
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.
