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 Pisces · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 10
What makes you feel safe.
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.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 7
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 2 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 10 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 1 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 9
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 11
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 9
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
The tightest aspects
