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 Libra · house 11
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 3
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 10
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 12
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 4 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 3 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 3 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the daily traffic of information.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Virgo · house 10
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 5
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
♅ Uranus ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.15°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.85°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
♀ Venus ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.93°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 1.07°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.01°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon ◻ ☿ Mercury · square, orb 1.70°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
