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 Virgo · house 5
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
☽ Moon in Gemini · house 12
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 4 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♀ Venus in Leo · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 5
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♃ Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 6
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
♄ Saturn in Libra · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Cancer · house 1
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♆ Neptune in Aries · house 11 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 12 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Libra · house 5
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the things done because they are wanted.
⚷ Chiron in Pisces · house 11 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Libra · house 5
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

The tightest aspects
♀ Venus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.48°
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☉ Sun ◻ ♃ Jupiter · square, orb 1.20°
The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♂ Mars ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 1.66°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.
The tension is usually met by over-committing to one side and meeting the other in people.
☽ Moon △ MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.67°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☽ Moon ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 1.85°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
♃ Jupiter ⚹ ☊ True Node · sextile, orb 1.25°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
