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 Scorpio · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 1
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 1
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 6 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 7 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 10
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.14°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.40°
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.
☽ Moon ◻ ☿ Mercury · square, orb 0.53°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
⚷ Chiron ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.55°
The injury that becomes a competence 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.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.57°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚷ Chiron ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.95°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
