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 Capricorn · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Sagittarius · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  3. Mercury in Sagittarius · house 12

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  5. Mars in Libra · house 9

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 8

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 1

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In bearing and first impression.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 7

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 5

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  13. Lilith in Leo · house 8

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Saturn MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.04°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.

  2. Mercury Venus · sextile, orb 0.32°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Moon Chiron · trine, orb 0.53°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Venus Mars · trine, orb 0.93°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

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

  5. Mercury Lilith · trine, orb 1.27°

    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.

  6. Venus Lilith · opposition, orb 1.59°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.
