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 Libra · house 2
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 3
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 3
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the daily traffic of information.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4
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.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 4
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 4
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 10
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 10 ℞
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.

Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 3

The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 4
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
⚸ 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
☿ Mercury △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.22°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 1.41°
The pull toward what has no edges 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.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 1.19°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ♄ Saturn · square, orb 1.79°
The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.87°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.57°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
