A
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 Cancer · house 11
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 12
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 6 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 1
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 7
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 10
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ◻ ☽ Moon · square, orb 0.07°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.10°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.15°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.58°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
♀ Venus ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.68°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.81°
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.
