AAReading
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 Taurus · house 12
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☽ Moon in Aquarius · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Taurus · house 12
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Pisces · house 11
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♃ 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.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 12
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 9 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 1
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Sagittarius · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.03°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.28°
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.
♀ Venus △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.37°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.65°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚷ Chiron ◻ AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.69°
The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 1.00°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
