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 Virgo · house 10

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Gemini · house 8

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 11

    How you think, and how you say it.

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Leo · house 9

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 11

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 3

    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.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 3

    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.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 10

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 1

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  11. True Node in Leo · house 10

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 4

    The sore spot you end up good at.

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 10

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    In the public record of a life.

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus True Node · conjunction, orb 0.18°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  2. Sun Neptune · sextile, orb 0.30°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Mercury Saturn · trine, orb 0.53°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.

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

  4. Mars MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.43°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Sun Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.83°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Moon Venus · sextile, orb 1.10°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
