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 Capricorn · house 2

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 6

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.06°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Uranus Chiron · trine, orb 0.67°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  3. Venus Neptune · trine, orb 0.97°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  4. Mercury Pluto · trine, orb 1.12°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  5. Jupiter Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.46°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Venus Jupiter · trine, orb 1.46°

    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.
