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 Taurus · house 1

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  2. Moon in Leo · house 5

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  4. Venus in Gemini · house 2

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 1

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In bearing and first impression.

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 10

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 9

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 12

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

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

  9. Neptune in Aquarius · house 11

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

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 12

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

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

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 10

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

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

  12. Chiron in Cancer · house 4

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

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

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 11

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by stepping back far enough to see the pattern.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter True Node · conjunction, orb 0.24°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  2. Moon Pluto · trine, orb 0.45°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.

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

  3. Uranus Chiron · trine, orb 0.43°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  4. Moon Neptune · opposition, orb 1.52°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Pluto True Node · square, orb 1.13°

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into obstruct each other.

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

  6. Jupiter Pluto · square, orb 1.37°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.

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