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 Scorpio · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 6

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

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 12

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars True Node · trine, orb 0.06°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  2. Moon Venus · sextile, orb 0.10°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Uranus Chiron · sextile, orb 0.08°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Sun Neptune · sextile, orb 0.36°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mercury Venus · conjunction, orb 0.46°

    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.

  6. Moon Mercury · sextile, orb 0.37°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
