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 Virgo · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Leo · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 12

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  10. Pluto in Libra · house 1

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In bearing and first impression.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.07°

    The face a life presents before it says anything 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.

  2. Uranus Chiron · opposition, orb 0.11°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Sun Mars · conjunction, orb 0.39°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Pluto AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.96°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  5. Pluto MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.89°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  6. Mercury Neptune · square, orb 1.16°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

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