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 Sagittarius · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 4
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 3
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the daily traffic of information.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 10 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 10
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 3
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.59°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☉ Sun △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.70°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.82°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♀ Venus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.41°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♆ Neptune △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 1.12°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 1.29°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
