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 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.

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  3. 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.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, 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.

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 10

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

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

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 7

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

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

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 10

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

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

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 8

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

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

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.

  12. Chiron in Capricorn · house 1

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

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Neptune · square, orb 0.11°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  2. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.38°

    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.

  3. Saturn Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.89°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Sun Uranus · conjunction, orb 1.13°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Chiron · opposition, orb 1.36°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  6. Sun Neptune · square, orb 1.24°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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