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 Sagittarius · house 6

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

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 9

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 4

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  13. Lilith in Aries · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.63°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Mars Saturn · conjunction, orb 1.03°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Moon Saturn · opposition, orb 1.28°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.

  4. Neptune True Node · opposition, orb 1.18°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Mercury Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.94°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Moon Mars · opposition, orb 2.31°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it face each other across the chart.

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