AAReading
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 9
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 long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 9
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 9
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 9
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 1
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 2 ℞
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 9
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 7
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 10
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 8
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 3 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 1
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In bearing and first impression.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 6
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.22°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.23°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.28°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.50°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.59°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 1.02°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
