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 Leo · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 5
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 7 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 7
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 7
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♄ Saturn in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Scorpio · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 12
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the part that operates without being watched.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
⚸ Lilith in Capricorn · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.59°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♀ Venus · conjunction, orb 0.82°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
♄ Saturn ☍ ⚷ Chiron · opposition, orb 0.78°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.
♅ Uranus ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.85°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
AC Ascendant ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.71°
The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♇ Pluto ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 1.22°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
