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 Libra · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Libra · house 12

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

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 12

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

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

  4. Venus in Libra · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  6. Jupiter in Aquarius · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 1

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In bearing and first impression.

  8. Uranus in Cancer · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  9. Neptune in Aries · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Virgo · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 5

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Capricorn · house 3

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 0.40°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Sun Venus · conjunction, orb 0.96°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Uranus Lilith · opposition, orb 0.86°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

    The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.

  4. Uranus Neptune · square, orb 1.17°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the pull toward what has no edges obstruct each other.

    The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.

  5. Pluto True Node · trine, orb 1.56°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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.

  6. Venus MC Midheaven · sextile, orb 1.36°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the direction a life is aimed in public assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
