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.

  1. Sun in Capricorn · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 10

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  5. Mars in Taurus · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Uranus · opposition, orb 0.23°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Moon AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.39°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  3. Jupiter Chiron · sextile, orb 0.29°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Sun Chiron · trine, orb 0.60°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  5. Uranus Neptune · trine, orb 0.48°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  6. Uranus Chiron · trine, orb 0.53°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
