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 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Gemini · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 2
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 7
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☊ True Node in Aquarius · house 2 ℞

Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 2 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.32°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

☿ 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.
♀ Venus ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.85°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

♀ Venus ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.91°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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