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.

  1. Sun in Aries · house 11

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 1

    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 how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 10

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 9

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 8

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  6. Jupiter in Gemini · house 12

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 5

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 5

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 12

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 10

    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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Virgo · house 4

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Capricorn · house 7

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Saturn · opposition, orb 0.03°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Mars True Node · sextile, orb 0.14°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Mars Pluto · trine, orb 0.86°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  4. Neptune MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.88°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Mars Neptune · trine, orb 1.36°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  6. Lilith MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.94°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
