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 4

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

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  2. Moon in Taurus · house 10

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 5

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.

    In the things done because they are wanted.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun Uranus · opposition, orb 0.01°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  2. Moon Mars · trine, orb 0.05°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

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

  3. Venus AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.12°

    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.

  4. Jupiter Chiron · opposition, orb 0.48°

    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 MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.36°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  6. Pluto MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.11°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
