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 Pisces · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 2 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 1 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 11 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 8
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.01°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♇ Pluto △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.43°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.68°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.67°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
♇ Pluto ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.80°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.16°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
