AReading
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 Virgo · house 5
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 6
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 6
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 11 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 4
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, 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.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 6
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 12 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.49°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.61°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.59°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.97°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.10°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♅ Uranus △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.17°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
