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 Cancer · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 10 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 7 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 3
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.35°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.56°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.15°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.91°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.92°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.49°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
