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 Taurus · house 3

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 3

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

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

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    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.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 7

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.

    In the daily traffic of information.

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 2

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In bearing and first impression.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Lilith · square, orb 0.48°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  2. Venus Lilith · square, orb 0.59°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  3. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 1.07°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  4. Venus Mars · square, orb 1.78°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Moon Saturn · sextile, orb 1.70°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Jupiter Neptune · trine, orb 1.92°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

    Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
