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 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Taurus · house 5

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 11

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 2

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

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

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 2

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.00°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

  2. Mars Neptune · square, orb 1.12°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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

  3. Uranus Chiron · opposition, orb 1.26°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  4. Lilith MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 1.38°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 1.79°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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 Mars · square, orb 1.62°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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