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 Sagittarius · house 12
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 5
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 12
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 4
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 6 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 12
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 3
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 8 ℞
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 12
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 11
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 12
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the part that operates without being watched.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.01°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

☉ Sun ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.25°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♀ Venus ◻ ♆ Neptune · square, orb 0.21°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.
