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 Virgo · house 3
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 11
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 10 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 11
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 10 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the things done because they are wanted.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.14°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.27°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♀ Venus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.82°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.82°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.43°
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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 2.23°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
