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 Leo · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Leo · house 7
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
☿ Mercury in Virgo · house 8 ℞
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 7
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♂ Mars in Aquarius · house 1 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In how you meet a room, and what people take you for on sight.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 3 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♄ Saturn in Virgo · house 8
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
♅ Uranus in Scorpio · house 9
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♆ Neptune in Gemini · house 5
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 5
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.
☊ True Node in Taurus · house 3 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 7
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.
⚸ Lilith in Scorpio · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
The tightest aspects
♃ Jupiter △ ⚷ Chiron · trine, orb 1.12°
The appetite for more room than is currently available and the injury that becomes a competence run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♆ Neptune ☌ ♇ Pluto · conjunction, orb 1.40°
The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
♂ Mars △ ♇ Pluto · trine, orb 1.57°
The capacity to want something and go at 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.
☊ True Node △ AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.54°
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♅ Uranus ☌ ⚸ Lilith · conjunction, orb 2.14°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.
Neither can act without the other coming along.
☿ Mercury ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 2.53°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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.
