A
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 Aries · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 9
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☿ Mercury in Pisces · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♀ Venus in Taurus · house 3
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 9 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Scorpio · house 10 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Pisces · house 2
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by dissolving the edges of the problem.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♅ Uranus in Aries · house 3
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Cancer · house 7 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 1 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Gemini · house 5
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 7
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
The tightest aspects
☽ Moon △ ♄ Saturn · trine, orb 0.04°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
☿ Mercury ◻ ⚷ Chiron · square, orb 0.43°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the injury that becomes a competence obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☌ ♄ Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.72°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the encounter with limit, and what is built against it are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☽ Moon △ ☿ Mercury · trine, orb 0.75°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the way a mind takes things in and hands them on run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♃ Jupiter △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 0.85°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and what will not be negotiated with, only survived run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ◻ ☊ True Node · square, orb 0.85°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
