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 Aries · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  2. Moon in Pisces · house 11

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Aries · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 3

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 9

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. True Node Chiron · opposition, orb 0.21°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.

  2. Pluto True Node · conjunction, orb 0.44°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  3. Mercury Jupiter · sextile, orb 0.39°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Venus Mars · square, orb 0.60°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Pluto Chiron · opposition, orb 0.65°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  6. Jupiter AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.09°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.
