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 5

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

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

  2. Moon in Libra · house 8

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 5

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 1

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 3

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 7

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 6

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 12

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.10°

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

  2. Saturn Lilith · opposition, orb 0.44°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Neptune Chiron · square, orb 0.85°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  4. Moon Mars · conjunction, orb 1.60°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Jupiter Neptune · sextile, orb 1.08°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Sun Moon · square, orb 2.11°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.

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