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 Sagittarius · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Cancer · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Virgo · house 4
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Taurus · house 12
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 3
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.
♆ Neptune in Sagittarius · house 7 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Libra · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Scorpio · house 6 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 12
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
Behind the scenes, in retreat and in what is undisclosed.
⚸ Lilith in Aries · house 12
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.28°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ♂ Mars · square, orb 0.46°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
♆ Neptune ☍ AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 0.60°
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.
♄ Saturn ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.77°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.92°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☊ True Node ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.15°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.
