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 Gemini · house 7

    The drive to be someone in particular, pursued by talking it through, and by keeping several options open.

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

  2. Moon in Aquarius · house 3

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it, pursued at a deliberate distance, on principle more than on feeling.

    In speech, siblings, short journeys and everyday learning.

  3. Mercury in Gemini · house 7

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on, pursued restlessly, gathering more than it can use.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  4. Venus in Taurus · house 7

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  5. Mars in Cancer · house 8

    The capacity to want something and go at it, pursued indirectly, and with a long memory for how it went last time.

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

  6. 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.

  7. Saturn in Aries · house 5

    The encounter with limit, and what is built against it, pursued head-on and at speed, with very little rehearsal.

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

  8. Uranus in Virgo · house 9

    The impulse to break a pattern that still works, pursued carefully, by improving the parts that are not yet right.

    In long journeys, foreign places, law and belief.

  9. Neptune in Taurus · house 6

    The pull toward what has no edges, pursued slowly, and with a strong preference for what can be held.

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

  10. Pluto in Taurus · house 7

    What will not be negotiated with, only survived, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    Across the table, wherever there is another party.

  11. True Node in Capricorn · house 2

    The direction a life is pulled toward rather than born into, pursued patiently, on the assumption that the return will be slow.

    In what you own, earn, and consider worth having.

  12. Chiron in Taurus · house 6

    The injury that becomes a competence, pursued at its own pace, and not at anyone else's.

    In routine, craft, and keeping the machine running.

  13. Lilith in Gemini · house 7

    What was refused, and refuses in turn, pursued by asking around, and by staying interested in the alternative.

    In one-to-one dealings, allied or opposed.

The tightest aspects

  1. Venus Pluto · conjunction, orb 0.83°

    What is found agreeable, and how it is drawn near 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.

  2. Chiron MC Midheaven · trine, orb 0.69°

    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.

  3. Moon AC Ascendant · square, orb 0.93°

    The need for safety, and the habits that supply it and the face a life presents before it says anything obstruct each other.

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

  4. Mercury Uranus · square, orb 0.96°

    The way a mind takes things in and hands them on and the impulse to break a pattern that still works obstruct each other.

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

  5. Mars Pluto · sextile, orb 0.98°

    The capacity to want something and go at it and what will not be negotiated with, only survived assist each other when asked.

    Available rather than automatic — it takes a deliberate move.

  6. Neptune MC Midheaven · trine, orb 1.18°

    The pull toward what has no edges and the direction a life is aimed in public run together easily.

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