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 Leo · house 12

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 5

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  4. Venus in Virgo · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 12

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 3

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  7. Saturn in Capricorn · house 4

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against 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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Leo · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

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

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 2

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 12

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the part that operates without being watched.

  11. True Node in Libra · house 1

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, 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.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aquarius · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

The tightest aspects

  1. Mars MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.50°

    The capacity to want something and go at it 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.

  2. Sun Jupiter · square, orb 0.61°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the appetite for more room than is currently available obstruct each other.

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

  3. AC Ascendant MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.61°

    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.

  4. Mars AC Ascendant · conjunction, orb 1.12°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the face a life presents before it says anything are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  5. Sun Chiron · opposition, orb 1.29°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the injury that becomes a competence face each other across the chart.

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

  6. Neptune Pluto · sextile, orb 0.87°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
