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 Capricorn · house 1
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
☽ Moon in Capricorn · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In bearing and first impression.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 1
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 12
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♂ Mars in Leo · house 7 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 10
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 12
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
♅ Uranus in Sagittarius · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the part that operates without being watched.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 7 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 6 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
At the threshold, before anything is said.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Sagittarius · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.02°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♆ Neptune ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.33°
The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
⚸ Lilith ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.88°
What was refused, and refuses in turn and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☌ ☊ True Node · conjunction, orb 2.26°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 1.26°
The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
☿ Mercury ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.54°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
