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 Capricorn · house 3
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Capricorn · house 3
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.
♀ Venus in Capricorn · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued soberly, and with the long arithmetic done.
In the daily traffic of information.
♂ Mars in Sagittarius · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 9 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 8 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 11
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the public record of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 10 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, 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.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 0.32°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

♂ Mars ☍ ♄ Saturn · opposition, orb 0.91°

♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.71°

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