AReading
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 Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Virgo · house 11
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 1
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♃ Jupiter in Pisces · house 5
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♄ Saturn in Sagittarius · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 5
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 10 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 9 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 8
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 7 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 1
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In bearing and first impression.
The tightest aspects
⚷ Chiron ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.11°
The injury that becomes a competence 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.
☽ Moon ⚹ MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.39°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☉ Sun ⚹ AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.56°
The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 1.35°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.44°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☽ Moon ☍ ♃ Jupiter · opposition, orb 2.23°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
