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 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aquarius · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Sagittarius · house 7

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Capricorn · house 8

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.06°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun True Node · sextile, orb 0.09°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Pluto MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.09°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  4. True Node AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.14°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

  5. Venus Uranus · square, orb 0.30°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  6. Jupiter Uranus · square, orb 0.72°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
