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.

  1. Sun in Pisces · house 12

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 11

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 1

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  4. Venus in Pisces · house 1

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In bearing and first impression.

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 5

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 7

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 5

    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 pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 3

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 7

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 6

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 4

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Libra · house 7

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 8

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter True Node · trine, orb 0.40°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  2. Moon Jupiter · square, orb 0.80°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  3. Mercury Lilith · trine, orb 0.72°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  4. Mercury MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.73°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  5. Venus Mars · trine, orb 1.24°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  6. Sun AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.71°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.
