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 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.
☽ Moon in Cancer · house 1
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 8 ℞
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♃ Jupiter in Aquarius · house 7
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♄ Saturn in Scorpio · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Pisces · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Leo · house 2 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Cancer · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In bearing and first impression.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 2
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
The tightest aspects
♀ Venus ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.07°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♀ Venus ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 0.11°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
♆ Neptune △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 0.18°
The pull toward what has no edges and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♄ Saturn · sextile, orb 0.34°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.55°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♄ Saturn △ ☊ True Node · trine, orb 0.66°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it 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.
