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 7
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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Pisces · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 8
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 is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 3
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.
In the daily traffic of information.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 4
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 9
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 6
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 6
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.22°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♆ Neptune ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.65°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.76°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.32°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.81°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 1.48°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
