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 Sagittarius · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 10
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Sagittarius · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 1
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
♃ Jupiter in Cancer · house 9 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 8 ℞
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♆ Neptune in Libra · house 11
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 10 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 10 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In the public record of a life.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
☉ Sun △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.14°
The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.37°

Neither can act without the other coming along.
☊ True Node ☌ ⚷ Chiron · conjunction, orb 0.55°

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.
