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 Aquarius · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  2. Moon in Cancer · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  3. Mercury in Aquarius · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Capricorn · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  5. Mars in Sagittarius · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 6

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 12

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.

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

    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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Gemini · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued independently, and slightly against the grain.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

The tightest aspects

  1. Neptune Lilith · sextile, orb 0.64°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  2. Pluto True Node · conjunction, orb 1.04°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived 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. Sun AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.73°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  4. Pluto Chiron · trine, orb 1.39°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  5. Jupiter Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.70°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Mars Lilith · square, orb 2.02°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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