A
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 Sagittarius · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In bearing and first impression.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 7 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 1
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In bearing and first impression.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 12
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 3 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 11
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.11°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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 ◻ ♀ Venus · square, orb 1.10°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ☌ AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 2.33°
The capacity to want something and go at it 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.
♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 1.84°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 2.11°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
♅ Uranus △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 2.86°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
