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 12

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

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

  2. Moon in Capricorn · house 4

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  3. Mercury in Libra · house 1

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  4. Venus in Leo · house 11

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  5. Mars in Leo · house 11

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

  6. Jupiter in Virgo · house 12

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  7. Saturn in Virgo · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  8. Uranus in Pisces · house 6

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

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Leo · house 11

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by backing itself, publicly.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 10

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  11. True Node in Libra · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 7

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Aquarius · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter Saturn · conjunction, orb 0.21°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  2. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.28°

    The face a life presents before it says anything and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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

  3. Moon Saturn · trine, orb 0.43°

    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.

  4. Moon Jupiter · trine, orb 0.64°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available run together easily.

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

  5. Venus Chiron · trine, orb 0.92°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.

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

  6. Jupiter MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.88°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is aimed in public obstruct each other.

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