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 Gemini · house 5

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  2. Moon in Libra · house 9

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  3. Mercury in Taurus · house 4

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Sagittarius · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Sagittarius · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Libra · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In what is believed, and how far it is carried.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 5

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 1

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, 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.

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus Lilith · sextile, orb 0.06°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Saturn Neptune · sextile, orb 0.39°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Jupiter Uranus · conjunction, orb 0.61°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  4. Jupiter Lilith · sextile, orb 0.55°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Mars · trine, orb 1.41°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it run together easily.

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

  6. Saturn Pluto · conjunction, orb 1.71°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.
