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 Leo · house 8
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
☽ Moon in Taurus · house 6
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In daily work, service, and the maintenance of the body.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 9
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
♀ Venus in Virgo · house 10
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♂ Mars in Taurus · house 6
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.
In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.
♃ Jupiter in Leo · house 9
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♄ Saturn in Gemini · house 8
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♅ Uranus in Gemini · house 7
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 10
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued by useful degrees, and with an eye on the flaw.
At the top of the chart, in reputation and calling.
♇ Pluto in Leo · house 9
What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
☊ True Node in Leo · house 9 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Leo · house 9
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
⚸ Lilith in Leo · house 9
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by backing itself, publicly.
In what is believed, and how far it is carried.
