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 Virgo · house 5
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 5
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 12 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 7
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 11 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 4
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 12 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.36°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.41°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.93°
The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 1.02°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.12°
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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.00°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
