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 Taurus · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  6. Jupiter in Cancer · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    Where things are held in common, and where they end.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 10

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

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

  11. True Node in Leo · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Leo · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    In the public record of a life.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Cancer · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Pluto · trine, orb 0.01°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  2. Moon Mars · square, orb 0.73°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.

  3. Lilith MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.76°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. True Node Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.72°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.91°

    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.

  6. Mars Uranus · square, orb 1.46°

    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.
