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 Scorpio · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Scorpio · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  4. Venus in Scorpio · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.

    In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 2

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Pluto Chiron · square, orb 0.14°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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

  2. Mars AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.48°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  3. Mercury Venus · conjunction, orb 0.60°

    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.

  4. Jupiter Chiron · opposition, orb 1.32°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  5. Mercury Pluto · trine, orb 1.52°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  6. Jupiter Pluto · square, orb 1.46°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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