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 Cancer · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

♀ Venus in Cancer · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In bearing and first impression.
♂ Mars in Cancer · house 1

At the threshold, before anything is said.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 10 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 11

♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 9 ℞

♆ Neptune in Aquarius · house 8 ℞

In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Virgo · house 3 ℞

The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 5

The tightest aspects
