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 Cancer · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Gemini · house 11
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 10
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 12
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 4 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 4
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
☊ True Node in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the public record of a life.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.05°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☊ True Node △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.10°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.33°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.67°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.87°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.86°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
