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 Aquarius · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 1
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 2 ℞
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 9 ℞
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 2
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 9 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 7 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 10 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 12
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.12°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.15°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.20°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.35°
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.
♃ Jupiter △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.88°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 2.09°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
