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 Virgo · house 11

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 5

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 12

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  4. Venus in Libra · house 1

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 12

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  6. Jupiter in Libra · house 1

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In bearing and first impression.

  7. Saturn in Libra · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  8. Uranus in Gemini · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    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 8

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

    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 Cancer · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Uranus · trine, orb 0.11°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the impulse to break a pattern that still works run together easily.

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

  2. Mercury Lilith · sextile, orb 0.19°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Chiron MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.62°

    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.

  4. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.75°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.

  5. Jupiter Lilith · square, orb 0.84°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  6. Neptune AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.00°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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