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 Leo · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 9 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 6 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.14°
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.
♃ Jupiter △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.66°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
♃ Jupiter ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.78°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 1.14°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♀ Venus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.46°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚸ Lilith ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.00°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
