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 3

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

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Leo · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 12

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  6. Jupiter in Gemini · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 5

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 3

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.08°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  2. Moon Uranus · opposition, orb 0.59°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

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

  3. Venus Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.57°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Moon Venus · opposition, orb 1.16°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Mars Chiron · opposition, orb 1.37°

    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.

  6. Sun MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.65°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.
