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 2

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

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  4. Venus in Leo · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

  11. True Node in Leo · house 2

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

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 1

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    In bearing and first impression.

  13. Lilith in Taurus · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.49°

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

  2. Venus True Node · conjunction, orb 0.78°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  3. Sun Mars · square, orb 0.79°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  4. Venus Neptune · sextile, orb 0.53°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Mars · sextile, orb 0.67°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Chiron AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.95°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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.
