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 Gemini · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 11
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 11
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 8 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 6 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.12°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.22°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.94°
The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.94°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 1.16°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.16°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
