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 Pisces · house 6

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  2. Moon in Aries · house 7

    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 partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 5

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 4

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

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

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

  5. Mars in Aries · house 8

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 10

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 3

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 10

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 2

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 4

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 5

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 3

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Saturn · sextile, orb 0.01°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Venus Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.66°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Jupiter Saturn · trine, orb 0.65°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

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

  4. Mars Neptune · opposition, orb 1.04°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  5. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.98°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  6. Venus AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.12°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
