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 Capricorn · house 6
Who you are being when you are most yourself.
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 2
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 6
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 6
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 2
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 9
Where you want more room.
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.
♄ Saturn in Cancer · house 12 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 7
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 12 ℞
Where the edges go soft.

What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 7
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 8
The sore spot you end up good at.
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 11
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.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
