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 Scorpio · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 1

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Libra · house 9

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 9

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In what is believed, and how far it is carried.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 7

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

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

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 7

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

  12. Chiron in Libra · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Uranus · trine, orb 0.01°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  2. Moon Mars · opposition, orb 0.26°

    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.

  3. True Node AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.62°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.

  4. Venus Mars · square, orb 0.97°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Moon Venus · square, orb 1.23°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.

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

  6. Jupiter Chiron · conjunction, orb 1.54°

    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.
