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 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 7
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 6
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 1 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 7
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 8
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 2
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 1 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ♂ Mars · trine, orb 0.10°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♇ Pluto ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.57°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♅ Uranus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.42°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.74°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
☉ Sun ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 1.10°
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.
♂ Mars ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.01°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
