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 Aries · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 3 ℞
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 speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 12
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 4
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 1
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In bearing and first impression.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 6 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 2
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 2
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 1
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.33°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
☉ Sun ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.06°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.00°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
⚷ Chiron △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.01°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.88°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ ☿ Mercury · opposition, orb 2.60°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
