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 Scorpio · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 10
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 5
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 10 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the public record of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Pisces · house 6 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 6 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.04°
The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.07°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
AC Ascendant ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.08°
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.
☽ Moon △ ☿ Mercury · trine, orb 0.20°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
⚸ Lilith ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.13°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.05°
What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.
