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.
☉ Sun in Sagittarius · house 7
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
☽ Moon in Scorpio · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Sagittarius · house 7
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued on conviction, and at some distance from the detail.
Across the table, wherever there is another party.
♀ Venus in Scorpio · house 6
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♂ Mars in Scorpio · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued privately, and with more force than is displayed.
In the unglamorous upkeep of a life.
♃ Jupiter in Virgo · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Aries · house 11
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.
♅ Uranus in Capricorn · house 8
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♆ Neptune in Cancer · house 2 ℞
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♇ Pluto in Gemini · house 1 ℞
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, 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.
☊ True Node in Gemini · house 1
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.
In bearing and first impression.
⚷ Chiron in Aquarius · house 10
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
⚸ Lilith in Virgo · house 4
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the root — household, ancestry, what is not shown.
The tightest aspects
☿ Mercury ☍ ♇ Pluto · opposition, orb 0.05°
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.
☽ Moon ⚹ ⚸ Lilith · sextile, orb 0.09°
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and what was refused, and refuses in turn assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♂ Mars ⚹ ♅ Uranus · sextile, orb 0.12°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the impulse to break a pattern that still works assist each other when asked.
Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.
♅ Uranus ☍ ♆ Neptune · opposition, orb 0.35°
The impulse to break a pattern that still works 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.
♂ Mars △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.47°
The capacity to want something and go at it and the pull toward what has no edges run together easily.
Easily enough that it is often not noticed, and so not used.
♂ Mars ◻ MC Midheaven · square, orb 0.49°
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.
