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 Scorpio · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 5
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 4
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 11 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the things done because they are wanted.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 12 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 3
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.34°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚸ Lilith ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.83°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
♇ Pluto △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.76°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
♄ Saturn ☌ ♅ Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.04°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.13°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 1.23°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
