Reading

Constructed, not stored: each reading below is assembled from what the tradition attributes to the body, the sign and the house. It describes the symbolism — it is not a claim about a person, and unlike the positions it sits beside, none of it is something this site can check.

  1. Sun in Leo

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

  2. Moon in Libra

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

  3. Mercury in Leo

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

  4. Venus in Cancer

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Capricorn

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Leo

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

  7. Saturn in Leo

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

  8. Uranus in Gemini

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

  9. Neptune in Pisces

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

  11. True Node in Aquarius

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Pisces

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Mars · opposition, orb 0.38°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Saturn Chiron · opposition, orb 0.60°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Sun True Node · opposition, orb 1.31°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  4. Sun Neptune · trine, orb 1.45°

    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.

  5. Mercury Saturn · conjunction, orb 1.46°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Mercury Chiron · opposition, orb 2.06°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
