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 8
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♂ Mars in Aries · house 3
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♃ Jupiter in Gemini · house 7
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 9
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 10
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 6
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 6
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
☊ True Node in Aries · house 3 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Virgo · house 8
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.33°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♃ Jupiter △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.30°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.55°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♃ Jupiter ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.40°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

☿ Mercury ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 1.42°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

♂ Mars ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 1.75°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
