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 2

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

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

  2. Moon in Virgo · house 1

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 2

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

    In resources, and in what is judged valuable.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  5. Mars in Leo · house 11

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 2

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the matter of keep and livelihood.

  7. Saturn in Scorpio · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 7

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Aquarius · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 8

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 10

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  13. Lilith in Libra · house 2

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 0.01°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  2. Sun Saturn · sextile, orb 0.39°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  3. Chiron Lilith · square, orb 0.42°

    The injury that becomes a competence and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  4. Mercury Jupiter · conjunction, orb 0.84°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Mars True Node · trine, orb 1.64°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  6. Sun Mercury · conjunction, orb 2.62°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.
