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 Libra · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  2. Moon in Aries · house 10

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. True Node Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.02°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Pluto AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.13°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Sun MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.38°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  4. Mars Lilith · sextile, orb 0.58°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mars True Node · sextile, orb 0.60°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  6. Jupiter Pluto · opposition, orb 1.13°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
