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 Taurus · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 4
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 5
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 11 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 1 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 4
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.00°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♄ Saturn ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.18°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.18°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♄ Saturn ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.39°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.57°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
⚷ Chiron △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.57°
The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
