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 Leo · house 12

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 9

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 1

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  4. Venus in Libra · house 3

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 11

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 7

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 6

    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.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 1

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In bearing and first impression.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 3

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    At the threshold, before anything is said.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 12

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 7

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 2

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.13°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Jupiter Pluto · opposition, orb 0.20°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Sun AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.25°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Pluto Chiron · opposition, orb 0.33°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Moon AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.44°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.

  6. Sun Moon · trine, orb 0.69°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
