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 Capricorn · house 8

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

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

  2. Moon in Taurus · house 12

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  3. Mercury in Capricorn · house 9

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  4. Venus in Sagittarius · house 6

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.

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

  5. Mars in Aquarius · house 10

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

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

  6. Jupiter in Sagittarius · house 7

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

    In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.

  7. Saturn in Pisces · house 10

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

  8. Uranus in Taurus · house 12

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  9. Neptune in Virgo · house 5

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  10. Pluto in Cancer · house 3

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 8

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued by building something that will outlast the effort.

    In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.

  12. Chiron in Gemini · house 1

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 5

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

The tightest aspects

  1. Sun True Node · conjunction, orb 0.27°

    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. Jupiter Chiron · opposition, orb 0.42°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available 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.

  3. Mercury Pluto · opposition, orb 0.94°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived 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 Mars · square, orb 1.07°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the capacity to want something and go at it obstruct each other.

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

  5. Chiron MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.25°

    The injury that becomes a competence and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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

  6. Mercury Lilith · trine, orb 2.00°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn run together easily.

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