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 Aries · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 2

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  3. Mercury in Aries · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, 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.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 8

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

    In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 5

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  6. Jupiter in Capricorn · house 4

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, 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.

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 8

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  8. Uranus in Aquarius · house 4

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  9. Neptune in Cancer · house 10

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 9

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  11. True Node in Aries · house 6

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Pisces · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  13. Lilith in Pisces · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun True Node · conjunction, orb 0.62°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.75°

    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. Sun AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.11°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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

  4. Moon Uranus · square, orb 1.12°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  5. Sun MC Midheaven · square, orb 1.86°

    The drive to be someone in particular 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.

  6. True Node AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.72°

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into and the face a life presents before it says anything face each other across the chart.

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