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 Cancer · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

♄ Saturn in Aries · house 2 ℞

♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 11 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 12 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Pisces · house 2 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 2 ℞

In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

The tightest aspects
