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 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Libra · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Aquarius · house 5 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aquarius · house 6
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 7
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♅ Uranus in Aquarius · house 5
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.
In the things done because they are wanted.
♆ Neptune in Capricorn · house 5
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Sagittarius · house 3
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 2 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Libra · house 2
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 11
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.01°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♂ Mars · conjunction, orb 1.10°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the capacity to want something and go at it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.03°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ⚹ ♇ Pluto · sextile, orb 1.04°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☽ Moon △ ♀ Venus · trine, orb 1.58°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 1.70°
The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
