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 Cancer · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  2. Moon in Libra · house 1

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

  3. Mercury in Cancer · house 10

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, 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.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aries · house 7

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  8. Uranus in Scorpio · house 2

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 9

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

  11. True Node in Taurus · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Leo · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Chiron · opposition, orb 0.00°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  2. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.12°

    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.

  3. Lilith MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.20°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  4. Mercury Jupiter · square, orb 0.32°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Mercury Venus · conjunction, orb 0.44°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Venus Jupiter · square, orb 0.77°

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

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
