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 Sagittarius · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 12

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 10

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  6. Jupiter in Gemini · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 11

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  12. Chiron in Capricorn · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

The tightest aspects

  1. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.07°

    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.

  2. Neptune True Node · square, orb 0.22°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  3. Venus MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.31°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Sun Moon · square, orb 0.58°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Moon Saturn · sextile, orb 0.88°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Mars Chiron · square, orb 1.64°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
