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 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 12
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 12
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 5
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 5
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 2
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 12
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the things done because they are wanted.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 1
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 10
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ♂ Mars · trine, orb 0.06°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.
