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 5
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 play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 6
What makes you feel safe.
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 5
How you think, and how you say it.
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 3
What you like, and how you go about liking it.
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 4
How you go after what you want.
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 4
Where you want more room.
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 11 ℞
The strict teacher you thank later.
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 8 ℞
The urge to break something that still works.
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 3
Where the edges go soft.
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived.
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 2 ℞
The direction you keep getting nudged in.
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 10 ℞
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 vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 4
What you refused, and what refuses back.
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.41°
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 ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.52°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♃ Jupiter ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.60°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
⚸ Lilith ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.01°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ☽ Moon · sextile, orb 1.09°
The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.04°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
