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 Scorpio · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Scorpio · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 9
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 9
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 2 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 1 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Pisces · house 12 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Capricorn · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Gemini · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
♆ Neptune ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.18°
The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♅ Uranus ⚹ ♆ Neptune · sextile, orb 0.39°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚷ Chiron ☌ MC Midheaven · conjunction, orb 0.87°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.83°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.96°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 1.85°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
