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 Taurus · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Aries · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Aries · house 2 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Aries · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued impatiently, and with more appetite than plan.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Capricorn · house 12 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 6
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 2
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 2
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 3 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Aries · house 1
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 6
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by feel, and by who else is in the room.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
The tightest aspects
♇ Pluto ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.16°
What will not be negotiated with, only survived and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
⚷ Chiron △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.25°
The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☊ True Node ⚹ ⚷ Chiron · sextile, orb 0.17°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
☊ True Node ☍ MC Midheaven · opposition, orb 0.42°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into 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.
☽ Moon ◻ ♅ Uranus · square, orb 0.51°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.59°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
