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 Leo · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, 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.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 12
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 10
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 7 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 5 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 11
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 11
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 2
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 6 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 8
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.58°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 0.81°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♀ Venus △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.88°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 1.12°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.18°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.30°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
