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 Pisces · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 4

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, 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.

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Aquarius · house 9

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  5. Mars in Scorpio · house 5

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Leo · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 10

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.

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

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 3

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    In the near world — talk, errands, the people close to hand.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.

  11. True Node in Scorpio · house 5

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In the wider circle — networks, causes, company kept.

  13. Lilith in Sagittarius · house 6

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon AC Ascendant · sextile, orb 0.06°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Moon Mars · sextile, orb 0.07°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Mars AC Ascendant · trine, orb 0.13°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.

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

  4. Jupiter Neptune · conjunction, orb 0.26°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the pull toward what has no edges are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Moon Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.64°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Pluto Chiron · square, orb 0.64°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.

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