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 Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 12
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♃ Jupiter in Libra · house 11
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 11
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 4
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 9 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 8 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 11 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
Among the people chosen rather than given.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 5 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, 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.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.06°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♀ Venus ⚹ ♃ Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.17°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.23°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☉ Sun ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.27°
The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.23°
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.
☽ Moon ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.44°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
