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 Aries · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 7 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 8
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 9
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 1 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 3 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 5 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
The tightest aspects
☊ True Node ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.21°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 0.65°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.84°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.01°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.84°
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.
☿ Mercury ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 1.52°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
