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 Taurus · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 2
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 11
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 1
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 12
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 6 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 5 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 5
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the things done because they are wanted.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
