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 Taurus · house 6

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  2. Moon in Taurus · house 6

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 6

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  4. Venus in Aries · house 4

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 9

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  6. Jupiter in Taurus · house 5

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 5

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

    In pleasure and in what is created for its own sake.

  8. Uranus in Capricorn · house 1

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Capricorn · house 1

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In bearing and first impression.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Aries · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  11. True Node in Aquarius · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 4

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by starting, and worrying about the shape of it later.

    At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.

  13. Lilith in Scorpio · house 12

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Moon Lilith · opposition, orb 0.72°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

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

  2. Saturn Neptune · trine, orb 1.21°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.

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

  3. Mercury AC Ascendant · opposition, orb 1.52°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on 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. Chiron AC Ascendant · trine, orb 1.34°

    The injury that becomes a competence 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.

  5. Sun Pluto · sextile, orb 1.50°

    The drive to be someone in particular and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Mars Saturn · trine, orb 1.72°

    The capacity to want something and go at 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.
