Chiron not shown. The asteroid data files begin in 1200 and this birth is earlier, so there is no position to draw. Nothing else on the wheel is affected — the planets come from a different set of files that reaches much further back.

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 Capricorn · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 8

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  6. Jupiter in Pisces · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 6

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 8

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 1

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

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Pisces · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  11. True Node in Leo · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Lilith in Leo · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

The tightest aspects

  1. Lilith MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.03°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 0.74°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  3. Sun Mars · square, orb 1.05°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  4. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.33°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  5. Mercury Pluto · square, orb 1.57°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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

  6. Venus Mars · square, orb 1.79°

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