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 Aquarius · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 1

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, 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.

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 9

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Venus · square, orb 0.23°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near obstruct each other.

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

  2. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.17°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Venus Pluto · opposition, orb 0.63°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and what will not be negotiated with, only survived face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Moon Pluto · square, orb 0.85°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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

  5. Venus Neptune · trine, orb 0.79°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  6. Moon MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.16°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it 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.
