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 Sagittarius · house 8
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 10
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 6
Where you want more room.

In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 10
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 5 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 1 ℞
Where the edges go soft.

In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

☊ True Node in Gemini · house 2

In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In bearing and first impression.

⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
