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 Virgo · house 10

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

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

  2. Moon in Scorpio · house 12

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

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

  3. Mercury in Virgo · house 11

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  4. Venus in Libra · house 12

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

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

  5. Mars in Virgo · house 10

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

    At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.

  6. Jupiter in Scorpio · house 12

    The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued by going all the way in, or not at all.

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

  7. Saturn in Taurus · house 7

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  8. Uranus in Libra · house 11

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by weighing it against the alternative, and against other people.

    Among friends, allies, and collective hopes.

  9. Neptune in Scorpio · house 1

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

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

  10. Pluto in Virgo · house 11

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.

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

  11. True Node in Pisces · house 4

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued permeably, absorbing more than is strictly useful.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  12. Chiron in Aries · house 5

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

    Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.

  13. Lilith in Virgo · house 10

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued modestly, and with more revision than anyone sees.

    In the public record of a life.

The tightest aspects

  1. Jupiter True Node · trine, orb 0.45°

    The appetite for more room than is currently available and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  2. Mercury Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.55°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what will not be negotiated with, only survived are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  3. Moon True Node · trine, orb 0.67°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into run together easily.

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

  4. Moon Mars · sextile, orb 0.70°

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

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  5. Moon Jupiter · conjunction, orb 1.12°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the appetite for more room than is currently available are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.

  6. Mars Lilith · conjunction, orb 1.19°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what was refused, and refuses in turn are fused, and cannot easily be told apart.

    Neither can act without the other coming along.
