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 1
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ 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.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 1 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 9 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 4 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 9 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the foundations, where the line comes from.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.23°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♅ Uranus ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.25°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.68°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.70°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.91°
The drive to be someone in particular 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 ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 1.02°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
