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 Aquarius · house 2

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 1

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  5. Mars in Capricorn · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In bearing and first impression.

  6. Jupiter in Aries · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 10

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

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Neptune · opposition, orb 0.12°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Mercury AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.39°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Neptune AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.51°

    The pull toward what has no edges 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.

  4. Saturn True Node · opposition, orb 0.74°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  5. Jupiter Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.19°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  6. Moon AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.45°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
