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 11
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 11 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 11
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 3 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 12
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 7 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.06°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ☍ ♃ Jupiter · opposition, orb 0.06°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☊ True Node ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.12°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.
♅ Uranus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.35°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.66°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.73°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
