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 12
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 solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 1
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ 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.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 11
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 8
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 1
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 3
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♅ Uranus in Leo · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 1
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In bearing and first impression.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 1 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 5 ℞
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 7
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 0.39°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.

The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☊ True Node ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.56°
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.

AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.97°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
