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 Cancer · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Leo · house 1

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In bearing and first impression.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    At the threshold, before anything is said.

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Chiron MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.31°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Venus Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.86°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Sun Chiron · square, orb 1.16°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  4. Mercury Neptune · conjunction, orb 1.47°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.47°

    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.

  6. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.29°

    The face a life presents before it says anything 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.
