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 9
The drive to be someone in particular, pursued generously and in the open, wanting the effort to be seen.
In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.
☽ Moon in Sagittarius · house 2
The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued expansively, at the risk of overshooting the mark.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
☿ Mercury in Leo · house 9
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued warmly, and on a slightly larger scale than required.
In the far world — travel, doctrine, the bigger frame.
♀ Venus in Cancer · house 8
What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.
In what is shared: other people's money, intimacy, and endings.
♂ Mars in Capricorn · house 2 ℞
The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.
In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
♃ Jupiter in Aries · house 4
The appetite for more room than is currently available, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.
At home, in the family line, and in the private base of a life.
♄ Saturn in Taurus · house 5
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In play, romance, children, and anything made for its own sake.
♅ Uranus in Taurus · house 7
The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.
In partnership — marriage, close alliance, and open opposition.
♆ Neptune in Virgo · house 10
The pull toward what has no edges, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.
In vocation and public standing — the thing you are known for.
♇ 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 Scorpio · house 12 ℞
The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued quietly, thoroughly, and without showing the working.
In solitude, institutions, and what works on you unseen.
Retrograde — read as the same principle turned inward.
⚷ Chiron in Cancer · house 8
The injury that becomes a competence, pursued protectively, approaching sideways rather than head-on.
In the joint account — debt, intimacy, inheritance.
⚸ Lilith in Aquarius · house 3
What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.
In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.
The tightest aspects
♄ Saturn ◻ ♇ Pluto · square, orb 0.14°
The encounter with limit, and what is built against it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived obstruct each other.
The friction is productive only when it is worked at rather than escaped.
☿ Mercury ☍ ⚸ Lilith · opposition, orb 0.21°
The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and what was refused, and refuses in turn face each other across the chart.

♅ Uranus △ ♆ Neptune · trine, orb 0.21°

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