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 Virgo · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 9
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 9
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♄ Saturn in Leo · house 6
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♅ Uranus in Libra · house 7
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 6 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Taurus · house 3
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon ◻ ⚸ Lilith · square, orb 0.35°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.68°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ⚸ Lilith · trine, orb 0.80°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.95°
The drive to be someone in particular 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.
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 1.16°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 2.30°
The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
