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 Sagittarius · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 9
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 12 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.05°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.29°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.73°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ☌ ♆ Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.93°

Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 1.15°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.09°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
