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 Cancer · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 4
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 1 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 5
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 3
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ⚹ ☽ Moon · sextile, orb 0.67°
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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.99°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.59°
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.
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 1.25°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.09°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♇ Pluto ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.83°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
