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 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.

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 10

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

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

  3. Mercury in Leo · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Cancer · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  5. Mars in Gemini · house 6

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 11

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  7. Saturn in Sagittarius · house 12

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Sagittarius · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Gemini · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  10. Pluto in Gemini · house 5

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

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

  11. True Node in Sagittarius · house 11

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by aiming past the target on principle.

    Among the people chosen rather than given.

  12. Chiron in Sagittarius · house 11

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 9

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

The tightest aspects

  1. Neptune Lilith · square, orb 0.01°

    The pull toward what has no edges and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  2. Sun Moon · square, orb 0.24°

    The drive to be someone in particular and the need for safety, and the habits that supply it obstruct each other.

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

  3. Uranus True Node · conjunction, orb 0.31°

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.

  4. Saturn Neptune · opposition, orb 0.81°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and the pull toward what has no edges face each other across the chart.

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

  5. Saturn Lilith · square, orb 0.83°

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what was refused, and refuses in turn obstruct each other.

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

  6. Mars MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.27°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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