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.
☉ Sun in Capricorn · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 8
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 1 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 11 ℞

♆ Neptune in Libra · house 4 ℞

The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.11°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
⚸ Lilith ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.23°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.18°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 0.28°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus △ ♅ Uranus · trine, orb 0.66°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♂ Mars · sextile, orb 0.69°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
