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 Pisces · house 2

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Pisces · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 1

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

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

  5. Mars in Pisces · house 2

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued sympathetically, and without a firm boundary.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Leo · house 7

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 6

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

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

  9. Neptune in Libra · house 9

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

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Leo · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    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 Scorpio · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Capricorn · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars Chiron · trine, orb 0.21°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  2. Venus Pluto · opposition, orb 0.48°

    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.

  3. Chiron AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.59°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Mars AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.80°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.

  5. Venus Neptune · trine, orb 1.93°

    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. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 1.45°

    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.
