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 Aquarius · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  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 Virgo · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Gemini · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 8

    The pull toward what has no edges, 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.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 9

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Uranus · square, orb 0.01°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply 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.

  2. True Node AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.33°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Mercury Venus · conjunction, orb 0.85°

    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.

  4. Jupiter Chiron · square, orb 0.79°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  5. Moon Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.90°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.08°

    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.
