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 Aries · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 6
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♀ Venus in Gemini · house 8
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 1 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 6

In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 12 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Scorpio · house 2 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Virgo · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

Across the table, wherever there is another party.
The tightest aspects
