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 Virgo · house 4

    The drive to be someone in particular, 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.

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 3

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

  4. Venus in Libra · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  5. Mars in Libra · house 4

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the daily traffic of information.

  7. Saturn in Cancer · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 4

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the foundations, where the line comes from.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 2

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

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

  11. True Node in Cancer · house 1

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Virgo · house 3

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 4

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.20°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun Lilith · conjunction, orb 0.32°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Chiron MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.53°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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.

  4. Mars Uranus · trine, orb 0.84°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  5. Lilith MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.22°

    What was refused, and refuses in turn 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.

  6. Sun MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 1.54°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.
