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 Sagittarius · house 9

   The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

   In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

2. ☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 10

   The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

3. ☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 8

   The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

4. ♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 11

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

   Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

5. ♂ Mars in Aries · house 2

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

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

6. ♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 12

   The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

7. ♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 4 ℞

   The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

   Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

8. ♅ Uranus in Libra · house 8

   The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

9. ♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 9

   The pull toward what has no edges, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

   In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

10. ♇ Pluto in Libra · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

11. ☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

12. ⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 2 ℞

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

13. ⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 11

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

The tightest aspects

1. ♂ Mars ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.57°

   The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

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

2. ☽ Moon ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.67°

   The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

   Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

3. ♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.56°

   The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

   Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

4. ☽ Moon ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.29°

   The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

   Neither can act without the other coming along.

5. ♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.77°

   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.

6. ♃ Jupiter △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.32°

   The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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