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 Leo · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 8

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  4. Venus in Leo · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 6

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 5

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 5

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

  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 MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.08°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  2. Mars AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.38°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.30°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Sun Mars · sextile, orb 0.84°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Sun MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.92°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Uranus Neptune · trine, orb 0.92°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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