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 Libra · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 8
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♀ Venus in Libra · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 8
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter ☍ ♅ Uranus · opposition, orb 0.54°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

⚷ Chiron ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.56°

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