Chiron not shown. The asteroid data files begin in 1200 and this birth is earlier, so there is no position to draw. Nothing else on the wheel is affected — the planets come from a different set of files that reaches much further back.

Reading

Put together from what the tradition attributes to each body, sign and house — a portrait to enjoy, not a verdict. The positions beside it are the part that can be checked.

  1. Sun in Sagittarius · house 1

    Who you are being when you are most yourself.

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 2

    What makes you feel safe.

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 1

    How you think, and how you say it.

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 2

    What you like, and how you go about liking it.

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 11

    How you go after what you want.

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 2

    Where you want more room.

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 8

    The strict teacher you thank later.

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Aries · house 3

    The urge to break something that still works.

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 8

    Where the edges go soft.

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived.

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 4

    The direction you keep getting nudged in.

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Lilith in Pisces · house 2

    What you refused, and what refuses back.

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

The tightest aspects

  1. Lilith AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.20°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  2. Jupiter Saturn · opposition, orb 0.36°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  3. Neptune Pluto · trine, orb 0.41°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.

  4. Sun MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.57°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Mars Saturn · square, orb 0.98°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it obstruct each other.

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

  6. Mars Jupiter · square, orb 1.34°

    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.
