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 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 10
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 11
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 11
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 4 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 9
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.19°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
☉ Sun ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.40°
The drive to be someone in particular and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.80°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.74°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ☌ ♃ Jupiter · conjunction, orb 1.23°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
☉ Sun ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 1.62°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
