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 Libra · house 2
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 3
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
☿ Mercury in Libra · house 2
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued diplomatically, and rarely alone.
In resources, and in what is judged valuable.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 2
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
♂ Mars in Libra · house 2
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by looking for the proportion in it.
In the matter of keep and livelihood.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 8 ℞
The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 8 ℞
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, 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.
♅ Uranus in Virgo · house 12
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
♆ Neptune in Taurus · house 9 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Taurus · house 9 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
☊ True Node in Capricorn · house 4 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Taurus · house 9 ℞
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by accumulating, and by refusing to be hurried.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚸ Lilith in Cancer · house 10
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
