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 Aries · house 9

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 4

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 10

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 7

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 8

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

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Uranus MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.32°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

  2. Sun True Node · conjunction, orb 1.22°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Moon Jupiter · sextile, orb 1.05°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  4. Mars Pluto · trine, orb 1.64°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  5. Venus Chiron · sextile, orb 1.30°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Sun Uranus · sextile, orb 2.28°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
