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 Leo · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 12
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 6 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 4
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 11
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
⚷ Chiron in Scorpio · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Pisces · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ☍ ☊ True Node · opposition, orb 0.21°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.25°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.60°
The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ☌ ☿ Mercury · conjunction, orb 0.83°
The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun △ ♃ Jupiter · trine, orb 0.86°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 1.43°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
