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 Virgo · house 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 9
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 10
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 Gemini · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 2 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 10
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 3 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 8
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.13°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.98°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.91°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.01°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 1.64°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 1.73°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
