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 Leo · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 2

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

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 7

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

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 12

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 1

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 3

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 9

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.39°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 0.39°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  3. Venus Jupiter · opposition, orb 1.04°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Sun Chiron · sextile, orb 1.32°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Sun Moon · opposition, orb 2.01°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it face each other across the chart.

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

  6. Saturn Lilith · trine, orb 1.73°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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